Chapter 17: The Mysterious Crystal
Ghouls, one of the undead creatures listed on page 1 of the Scourge Codex, are a xenomorph of the necroptral undead. In the process of undeadness, the www.biquge.info absorbed an excessive amount of death qi, but could not reasonably distribute and absorb it, so that there was a variation in appearance.
These undead creatures are inherently dominant to the lowest level of zombies, and they all feed on corpse flesh, which indirectly transforms sluggish zombies into more difficult skeletons.
The reason why the attack and defense battle in the village last night was finally won by the human side is probably the main reason why most of the zombies have been summoned to this place by these ghouls, and some of the transformed skeletons were attracted by the fire in the village, which caused a certain range of riots.
However, only a small number of skeletons entering the village would make those survivors tired to deal with, and if all these hundreds of zombies were transformed into skeletons, such a sea of bones would be a catastrophe for those ignorant human survivors.
Walls and barriers can keep the slow-moving zombies at bay, but how can they restrain the sleek, ape-like skeletons? And once they lose their geographical advantage, how can the humans, who have just been inspired to fight, be the opponents of these undead creatures who are far more than ten times more numerous.
Wang Qi hid fast enough, and during the day, the senses of the undead creatures were not as sharp as at night, and the ghoul who straightened up looked in his direction for a while, and finally found nothing unusual, so he lowered his head and went to nibble on the corpses on the ground with his companions.
Seeing a skeleton staggering to its feet in the pile of white bones piled up on the other side, and moving its limbs as if it had just woken up, Wang Qi felt a chill in his heart. Suppressing the fear in his heart, he moved back a little bit like a four-legged snake against the ground......
......
Fang Weiqiang rubbed his temples and drank the cold tea in front of him in one gulp, and then his subordinate and confidant Wang Biao pushed the door again and walked in.
"Did you find it?" Fang Weiqiang raised his eyelids and asked quietly.
"No, Brother Qiang, we divided more than 30 people and searched half of the village, but we haven't seen that ...... the ghost thing last night."
Wang Biao wiped the beads of sweat from his head, grabbed the teapot on the side and poured himself a big mouthful. "I don't think they've escaped from the village, or they've hid in the east of the village, where there are a lot of zombies, and if you don't take a gun, the brothers won't dare to copy the guy directly."
"Take a gun? Hehe, we have six **** in our hands, do you think it's really omnipotent? You can make do with relying on the terrain defense, but if you really want to take it out to open the way, you have to feed the zombies in minutes. ”
Fang Weiqiang glanced at Wang Biao, who was also full of muscles in his head, if it weren't for the fact that this stupid big man was loyal enough to him, he would have let him rush to the front to be cannon fodder before.
Wang Weiqiang is the village chief of this Ximiao Village, and he is also the overlord of the neighborhood. During the Taiping period, his subordinates gathered ordinary younger brothers to open a listed construction company, and used their power to occupy farmland and collect money. At the same time, pornography and drug gambling are also involved, just like a small underworld gang.
It's just that he has a relationship in the city, and every time he sweeps pornography and blackmail, he has no chance to remove his cancer. But fortunately, at this time, "Resident Evil" broke out, and when he saw the zombies in the village chasing the living, he was afraid in his heart, but more of an inexplicable excitement.
Doomsday, troubled times, isn't this the era of the rise of heroes like me?
With his appeal to his subordinates, he quickly gathered a group of people, and with a few firearms hidden in his house, he was able to withstand the first wave of attacks from the zombies. Speaking of zombies, the appearance is really shocking to people who see them for the first time, but when they really move, they are not much more difficult to deal with than living people.
Just like in the movie novel, as long as you blow their heads, they will immediately return to dust, and although they have a lot of strength, they are some brainless fools. With a little trickery on his own, he made a mess of those walking dead. It's just that the pile of bone shelves that appeared later really surprised him, but in hindsight, it is estimated that they are just zombies with some mutations or evolutions.
Then, what interested him the most was the "skeleton man" who was dressed in human clothes and had fiery eyes, and in a hurry, he let a row of guns under his command overturn, but after the fight, he regretted it.
From his bosom, he took out a polished ******** pistol and turned it in his palm with unusual dexterity. He bought this gun from the underworld in the city with a lot of connections, and usually it was just a prestige and intimidation at most, but at this moment this gun was as smart as life in his hands.
He knew that as long as he shot himself, within a hundred paces, even a mouse would not be able to dodge his bullets.
Of course, that's not to say that his marksmanship is so good, and even a day ago, he was just a rookie who had just learned to pull the trigger. This change occurred around the time of the disaster.
At that time, he was going to the grave of his old father on the hillside behind the village, when suddenly he saw the raised grave bag being cut open from the inside out. The old father's half-rotten, hideous face screamed and wanted to grab his feet.
He was taken aback at the time, but as an old bird who had been mixed up in society for decades, not only did he not scream and run away in this case, but grabbed the grass rake used to sweep the grave and hoe the grass at hand and blew the old father's head.
The corpse that had lost its head fell heavily into the dust, but at this moment, he saw that some crystal seemed to reflect the sunlight in the old father's smashed skull. Without hesitation, he used the scythe he had brought to dig open his father's skull, and sure enough, he found a blue particle the size of a peanut in the middle.
Without thinking too much, he reached out and tried to pull the thing out, but when the wound on his finger that he had accidentally cut while mowing the grass lifted to the blue crystal, the thing quickly melted into a liquid that followed his wound and entered his body.
After that, there was naturally an indescribable painful feeling, and when he regained his strength, he suddenly found that there were some subtle changes in his body. Better eyesight, greater stamina, unusually dynamic vision, and an incredible finger dexterity.
After making sure that all this was not a dream, Wang Weiqiang had already reacted that he had encountered a common good thing for the protagonist in the novel, and the blue crystal was a treasure that existed in the brains of these zombies, absorbing it to improve evolution and obtain abilities.
And the ability you get is the ability to use firearms. At that time, when he returned to his courtyard with his men, he killed twelve zombies with nine bullets, and three of them were killed by him. is also such a miraculous marksmanship, which quickly stabilized the minds of his subordinates, and established the defense line of the small courtyard as quickly as possible.
Fang Weiqiang, who had tasted the benefits, naturally spared no effort to let his subordinates rummage through the heads of those killed zombies, trying to find more mysterious particles that could bring about evolution and abilities. It's a pity that nearly two hundred zombies were killed in one day and one night, but no more were found.
However, he had a very strong premonition that the strange "skeleton man" with fire in his eyes who was blasted away by them with guns last night must have that kind of "baby" in his head!
