The lips of the three captives kept opening and closing, and their faces were filled with misery and fear. Two men, one woman, were probably talking words begging for mercy, and I don't know if the murderous corpse could understand these words. They trembled and moved closer and closer to each other's positions. At such times, they can only use this meaningless action to make themselves feel a little useless and safe.

Several particularly sturdy corpses pounced. They wear only simple shorts and are naked, revealing their muscular breasts. The thick arms were full of strength, and they gagged the mouths of the three captives with strips of cloth and wood, making them unable to make sounds. The murderous corpse next to him immediately stabbed the sharp knife into the throat. The blood gushing from the wound was more showy than usual, perhaps a special effect in the light of the fire. The three of them slowly fell down, and there was no more movement.

Cao Xin's eyelids twitched constantly. He struggled to control his desire to turn around and flee, and said in a low voice, "Have you ever seen a murderous corpse kill someone in this way? ”

Neither Zheng Xiaoyue nor Liu Fengping answered.

This question is obviously redundant and boring.

A sharp knife reflecting a metallic luster was inserted into the body of the deceased, just like a surgeon would normally do, slicing straight down the middle of the throat, slicing through the chest and then the abdomen from the middle. The knife cut all the obstructions of the body, and then turned the entire corpse upside down, in the same position, and cut upwards along the spine.

The hard bone part is solved by a heavy axe. The corpses had already prepared this chopping tool. They were two fire axes with clear and striking red markings.

The flat ground reflects a harsh sheen.

Zheng Xiaoyue frowned and stared intently for a long time, only to realize that it was a large transparent plastic sheet, spread under the three corpses.

The corpses continue to divide the bodies of the survivors.

The ribs are cut one by one, and the muscles and skin are attached to them. Although the yellow fat layer is thin, it is noticeable between the white skin and the red muscle. The muscles of the legs and arms are carefully divided, the thick bones are separated, and the soft pieces of flesh are laid out on the plastic sheeting. There were six murderous corpses for the job. They were made very carefully, and even the internal organs and intestines were not missed, cut into pieces, cut into sections, and stacked neatly in piles.

Just like the master who takes the medicine from the medicine cabinet in the Chinese medicine shop, he quickly weighs the various medicinal materials and divides them in equal parts on the brown paper.

The more Cao Xinneng looked at it, the more he felt that the fear in his body became stronger.

He is not afraid of death, and he is also a brave man with great strength. However, the scene in front of him was beyond Cao Xinneng's thinking and understanding. As the classic saying goes———— the scariest thing in the world is the one you can't understand.

"Forty-one in all."

Cao Xinneng's trembling voice was accompanied by heavy breathing: "What do they want to do?" ”

He had almost guessed the truth, but he didn't want to admit it anyway, expecting a different answer from the other two companions.

Zheng Xiaoyue and Liu Fengping still didn't speak.

The reason why I didn't answer was that the cruel and bloody facts were going on right before my eyes.

The murderous corpses in the hall of the Furniture City lined up in a line, and stepped forward one by one in order to receive their share of food from the murderers who were responsible for dividing the corpses.

Fresh meat, soft offal, hard bones, and all sorts of messy body organs. There is no room for selection of any murderous corpses, and in fact they are fairly divided. Even the blood that flowed from the body of the deceased was caught by two murderous corpses carrying a basin and catching it beside them. Both basins were full, and the dark plasma seemed to have solidified in the light of the fire, not shaking and not rippling.

The corpses sat down in the hall and gulped down on the fresh meat they had been given to them. Their fangs are especially clear at this time, very large. Several of the corpses seemed to be laughing and talking, but they looked really hideous.

"Let's go!"

Zheng Xiaoyue turned around and forced herself to dispel as much as possible the negative emotions in her mind caused by seeing the bloody pictures. She lowered her voice, her face pale, "I think we already know how they're changing. Let's go back! Let everyone know about these things. ”

……

It was late at night, and all the core members of the team were gathered in one room.

There was also a fire burning here, but the air was filled with the normal smell of food like rice, not the disgusting gore.

Zheng Xiaoyue put her hands on the table, leaned forward slightly, and looked around at everyone in an extremely fierce and domineering posture. With long straight legs parted, the body curves enough to dwarf most women of the same age, but it exudes a terrifying cold aura.

"That's the way it is, they learn so much. These corpses are no longer the opponents we were familiar with. Not zombies, not living corpses. Their brains are evolving, and their whole bodies are evolving. They learn to use tools, even the most basic social structures, learn to work together, and know how to save excess food for the next meal. ”

"It's a terrible act. When Liu Tianming left, he had already foreseen this situation. However, the corpse has evolved much faster than expected. They hunt and give their food fairly to each member of the group. How to say that...... Their group composition is very similar to ours, and there may be leaders. They use fire, not for baking, perhaps for warmth, or for light. The monsters' sight is regaining, but their sense of hearing and smell is correspondingly dulled. ”

"That's all we know so far. More detailed information will need to be obtained by further observation. We're going to be in the city for a few days, so there's plenty of time to do that. Now, we have to post a message in the team to let all followers know about it. But pay attention to the ways and means, and do not turn warnings into fear. ”

Zheng Xiaoyue issued various orders in an orderly manner.

"From now on, no one is allowed to leave the team alone. At least three people should go out to search, and ensure that there is a dedicated person in charge of each observation surface. Ammunition stocks are counted daily, and the frequency of guard shifts is doubled, to three hours per person. Especially at night, be sure to pay attention to the setting of various alarm devices. ”

"With the temporary camp we are currently in as the core, seal off all the entrances to the buildings within a radius of two hundred meters. Zombies are not as capable of jumping and running as living corpses, and they need tools to climb over walls. As long as they are detected in time, they will not be difficult to deal with. ”

"Expand your engagement with other survivors in the city. Figure out everything that's happening here as soon as possible. These murderous corpses have changed too much. I don't know if Baoji City is more special, or if all the murderous corpses have undergone the same change? We need more information, more detailed information. ”

Luo Kuan put forward his opinion: "We should get a few murderous corpses back to dissect them and see what their body structure looks like." ”

"It's best to wait until Liu Tianming comes back."

Zheng Xiaoyue made the priorities very clear: "We only came to this place today, and the surrounding situation is not clear. Also, it's a good idea to get to the relics tomorrow. If we can, we'll try to see if we can get the safe in advance. ”

No one questioned Zheng Xiaoyue's orders. In fact, her disposition was very appropriate and logical. She may be born with this ability, just because Liu Tianming is the leader of the team, so she is willing to become a woman who hides behind him and silently supports.

Just when the meeting was about to end, Yang Yanhong hesitated and said, "I have a question. ”

Zheng Xiaoyue looked at her with a calm and cold gaze.

"Those survivors who were caught by the murderous corpses. I'm not talking about today, it's tomorrow, and when we encounter similar situations in the future...... Shouldn't they be rescued? ”

Yang Yanhong's tone was very earnest: "They are all human beings, and they have not been infected by the virus. ”

"It depends."

Zheng Xiaoyue thought for a moment and replied: "In a short period of time, there is no need to increase the number of followers in the team for the time being. One more person means one more food to be consumed. Of course, there's nothing wrong with your suggestion. But let's not forget that no matter what we do, we have to be safe. In this city, it's not just the corpses that are hostile to us, but other infected people as well. They are much more intelligent and more dangerous than the corpses. They are our food, and why are we not their prey? ”

……

By daybreak, the news of the evolution of the murderous corpse had spread throughout the team.

All kinds of targeted work has been carried out, and all core team members are sternly admonishing their followers, reiterating important matters such as not going out alone. The camp's alert level has also been raised repeatedly, and people have pulled up wires 100 meters from the station, and empty cans are tied to them. Once hit, these seemingly useless things will "tinkle" non-stop.

Tension was solidifying, hanging over everyone's head.

The night that had just passed was more terrifying than ever. Several times in succession, he obtained immunity pills at the relics placement point arranged by Song Jiahao, and the number of core members of the team who had been injected also increased significantly. Each of them has a follower under them to a greater or lesser extent. There were a dozen of them, and there were more than twenty people. The division of labor among individuals spread the news of the evolution of the virus and the murderous corpses throughout the camp.

The hearts of the followers who set up the cordon are heavy.

This simple alert device works well against zombies. However, will it still work as well as it did before against those highly evolved corpses?
