Chapter Eighty-Nine: Peepers? Remnants?
Almost immediately after Davy gave the order, he pulled out the overclocking blade that he had snatched from Garda, and Lily also raised her hands at the same moment, and the bionic skin in her palms cracked, revealing the muzzles of two black holes.
However, Edward and the others reacted immediately after receiving the order, but they obviously failed to sense the impending danger and murder.
Just raising their guns in confusion, they finally saw what was coming through the tactical eyepiece with thermal imaging function, their faces changed instantly, and they no longer dared to underestimate it, so they chose to fire directly!
The dim and dreary corridor was filled with ferocious gunfire in an instant!
However, the shooting was quickly stopped by David!
Because not long after the shooting, everyone found that the creatures emerging from the shadows were not only extremely fast and difficult to aim, not to mention, some of the appearance even appeared a little scale, ordinary bullets were difficult to break through their skin at one time to cause substantial damage, often obviously not only did not kill immediately after hitting, but became more violent because of the injury, emitting a piercing hissing sound.
Only Lily's successive rounds of misses had some success, and the hit exploded like a broken pocket, turning into a pile of broken limbs and flying out, but she also stopped firing immediately, and chose to pull out the two alloy daggers tied to her legs under her skirt to fight.
Because they soon found that as the huge vibration and noise caused by the guns spread, there were more and more such ghosts, and if they continued to shoot, they would face an endless stream of 'monsters'.
Davy held the overclocking blade in front of him and struck a very bizarre fighting stance.
Seeing a few dim but bouncing charges in the tactical eyepiece at close range, crimson shadows shot towards him like electricity.
David stepped forward abruptly.
With a bang, the ice under his feet suddenly burst, and the shattered ice erupted violently towards the surroundings in front of him as if it were an incomplete wall in an instant.
The pounce of those figures seemed to hit a barrier, thus causing the originally lightning swift pounce to appear a little stagnant.
David's eyes narrowed slightly, his body leaned forward suddenly, and then he shot into the ice chip barrier in front of him like a cannonball, and the overclocking blade in his hand pulled out a few twisted arcs in the dim light, slashing across the bodies of those creatures one by one!
But the feeling from the blade was jerky and stagnant, as if it had been cut into some soft metal, slippery and difficult to exert force.
And those creatures were very agile and had a strong survival instinct, so they actually retreated with the strength of the blade, and immediately unloaded most of the cutting force.
David's knife did not inflict fatal damage on these creatures, but because of the injury, it seemed that he was beginning to overdraw his life potential, and he stepped on the ice that was shattered in mid-air and continued to pounce on David.
So at the moment of lightning, David immediately turned on the charging and overclocking mode of the overclocking blade, accompanied by the particle vibration at the blade, with a flick of the wrist, the blade reversed in mid-air, and slashed through the bodies of those creatures again, cutting in half and flying out, which was considered to be the work.
He swirled around on the ice, turned back into the defensive formation, re-assumed a defensive stance, and turned off the charge mode of the overclocking blade at the first moment.
The charged particle oscillation mode of this thing consumes a lot of energy, and it can't be charged with the backward technology on the Garda continent, which is quite a bit of a chicken rib.
With this stolen thing, he only asked everyone to bring two handfuls in case of emergency, but he didn't expect these things to become more and more important in the current environment.
And he can't forget himself to charge alone, at the moment these things are extremely fast, the destructive power is unknown, unless ordinary people use large-scale cluster firepower to deal with, a small individual force like them leaves him with the highest force, I am afraid that there will soon be heavy casualties.
That kind of consequence is not what he wants to see.
At this time, David also saw clearly what was coming through the broken corpses that gradually lost their ability to move.
Although it has been seriously alienated, it is obviously still a humanoid species, but perhaps because of the shortage of food and the cold and high radiation environment, in order to reduce metabolism, it has evolved extremely short, a bit like David's grunt after seeing the movie "The Lord of the Rings" Smeagol fall in his previous life, but it is even uglier and more distorted than that thing.
At the same time, in order to hunt relatively rare prey and increase the success rate, the mouth can even expand to two to three times its original size, and through the gluttonous giant mouth, a circle of fine and sharp teeth can be seen.
David thought about it, but he didn't think it was strange, after all, it was not strange to mutate into something under this kind of radiation, those disgusting aberrant organs and pustules were the necessary organs for these creatures to live, and they could store all the radiation they inhaled in their bodies into these aberrant organs, so as to maintain the normalcy of other parts of the body.
Although this will inevitably shorten the life expectancy to a large extent, it will be able to live longer than dying immediately.
It's just that the only doubt is, what exactly are these things?
Biochemical weapons? The function is too monolithic.
Or is it a product of a failed experiment? It's also possible.
Or... David thought for a moment, temporarily suppressed the last terrifying and cruel possibility, and focused on dealing with these mutated creatures in front of him.
The two mercenaries with the worst strength knew that they might not be able to hit these ghosts even with an overclocking blade, so they simply took off the explosion-proof shield they were carrying behind their backs and blocked them at the outermost part of the crowd.
The next moment, the sound of dense and piercing claws and teeth scratching the metal suddenly sounded, stirring up a large spark.
At the same time, the blast shield, which could defend against the continuous bombardment of Gatling bullets for several seconds, began to twist and break!
It turns out that the saliva of these things has also evolved into a strong corrosiveness!
Fortunately, several people behind him made timely moves, especially a metal sledgehammer wielded by the black Miller, who immediately smashed a mutant monster that was crossing the upper circle of the blast shield and flew out.
Speaking of this sledgehammer, David deliberately found a wine-boiled bullet shell to make it for Miller.
Since he was a child, he begged for a life in the ancient ruins of Jinghu, and most of them were familiar with all kinds of sudden situations in the ruins, and sometimes cold weapons were more effective than hot weapons, especially against some mutant creatures that were difficult to penetrate.
After a short fight, David could see that although these mutated creatures looked like humans, they were not comparable in speed or strength to ordinary humans.
Their seemingly small, thin arms can wield two or three times the strength of an adult at any time, and it is almost as easy to break through hard metal as it is to cut cheese, and even the explosion-proof shields that are usually used to resist hot weapons cannot resist for long.
The best way to deal with them is to restrain their extraordinary speed like Davy did, and then deliver a fatal blow!
Fortunately, everyone found the most correct method under David's reminder at the first time, and the dozens of mutated creatures besieging them became corpses in just a few minutes.
Of course, they also paid some price.
When a mercenary used an explosion-proof shield to slap a mutated creature, the explosion-proof shield exploded directly under the dual action of corrosive liquid and external force, and was bitten on the shoulder on the spot.
Although the creature's neck was cut off by Davy as he swept aside, the revelation of the loss of its body was still tightly clung to the soldier, and it took a lot of effort to take it down.
The soldier's shoulder had been corroded and could only be treated urgently, although the injury was not light, but it was not life-threatening in a short time.
Just as everyone was packing up and preparing to leave this place of right and wrong first, David heard a slight suppressed breathing, and the sense of peeping from beginning to end suddenly disappeared.
He immediately turned and stomped towards a branch corner in the hallway.
Originally, he was ready for a tough battle, but he didn't expect such a high concealment skill to be an ordinary person!
Immediately, David dragged out the guy, who was dressed like an Eskimo, and threw it in front of everyone.
"Don't kill me! Brave men! I'm not one of those filthy and dangerous degenerans! I'm just an ordinary person who follows the steps of the Holy Lord and wants to go outside and see—" The man immediately raised his hands and spoke quickly in a complex tone.
Only David and Lily in the audience understood that this was Xinghuo's language, and they couldn't help but look at each other.
This is the indigenous people of the ruins here? Or an ordinary person? That's too much of a coincidence, isn't it?
