Chapter 023: The Shadow is Approaching

As Wu Ming guessed, after the raid, the last off-road vehicle that Yaji was in did not suffer a direct blow, and under the pull and pull of the security personnel, the Ghost Calamity was able to get out of the car in time and hide in the sand pit on the side of the road, so that it was safe and sound in the early stage of the most chaotic battle.

As the ambush entered the fierce battle phase, the rear half of the convoy became the main attack direction of the armed zombies, with dense artillery fire and a large number of casualties. Yaji was originally thinking about staying out of the matter, but as the opponent's death squad charged, the professional instinct came into play, and this guy immediately noticed that the ambushers were a group of ** zombies who had become fine, recalling the tragic situation of his family, the ghost disaster star was full of anger for a while, and it was difficult to act as a bystander calmly.

But Yaji's idea of joining the war also ran into obstacles. Under the magnetic cannon bombardment of armed zombies, the convoy suffered heavy losses, especially the more than ten off-road vehicles in the rear were mostly destroyed, and the off-road vehicles that Yaji was riding in when he came were not spared. Due to the haste of escape, Yagina stored the shotgun in the trunk, and there was no way to retrieve it in time, so he had to pick up an electromagnetic gun from the hands of the war dead and rush to the battle.

Although the portable electromagnetic rifle is 100 times more powerful than the old firearms, the problem is that Yaggie has never even touched it, and it is impossible to use it freely. Sure enough, Yaji fired two shots in a cat-like manner, but found nothing, so he rushed back to the wreckage of the off-road vehicle in a rage, and tossed around against the choking fireworks for a long time, and then he scooped out the good friend M1216 shotgun.

In just a few minutes of Yaji's search for the gun, the security personnel in the rear had already withdrawn to the area where the front car was located, concentrating all their firepower to cover the withdrawal of the mastiff and the other three from the war zone, and as for the angry hero, he was treated as an insignificant little person, and was left alone at the front line.

Luckily, the zombies were tasked with snatching three truckloads of goods without carefully inspecting their surroundings, and Yaggie had fallen into zombie encirclement countless times during her corpse hunting career, which was a common occurrence. With the usual style of guerrilla and feigning death, Yaji managed to save his life, but the security personnel in charge of protecting me were killed, and they were all killed in the last wave of concentrated fire.

After the goods arrived, the armed zombies only cleaned up the corpses of their own brothers when they cleaned up the battlefield, and only scribbled a few shots at their targets, as if their homes were on fire, and withdrew in a puff of smoke.

After that, Yaji crawled out of the pile of dead people, screaming and screaming for Wu Ming's whereabouts, and it took a full hour to analyze the truth from the messy footprints - the nerd had been taken away.

Thinking that Yaji should have thought about absconding with the money, but under the inspiration of noble friendship, he finally followed the footprints and resolutely caught up. And when he arrived at the scene, it happened that this side had reached the critical juncture of life and death, if it weren't for the good friends who launched accurately three times in a row, smashing the heads of the three zombie killers, Wu Ming's entire plan would have been completely defeated.

When recounting the whole process of the pursuit, Yaggie's words are vivid and exaggerated, especially when reviewing the fragments of his fearless spirit, he is even more generous and awe-inspiring. Bob was completely moved, and shook Yagi's palm vigorously. Apparently, he had taken the hillbilly with a strange haircut as a friend of life and death.

The fierce mastiff didn't give much of a reaction, and he didn't even smile like an errand boy, probably he was already surprised by the usual braggart habits of corpse hunters.

It was getting dark, as a deserted dead city, at night, Giott was an open-air horror house covering an area of fifteen hectares, if another wave of zombie assassins killed him, even if the big hero had three heads and six arms, he would definitely not be able to save this team of physically and mentally exhausted remnants, and it was imperative to evacuate the scene.

Not surprisingly, it was the fierce mastiff who was in chaos again who took the idea for everyone:

"Let's get out of here as soon as possible, follow me, and go downtown!"

"W-uh...... That doesn't seem like a good idea. Yaggie hesitated for a moment, but finally bravely stood up against it, "You should have noticed that this city is actually deserted, and there must be zombies. Based on my years of experience in hunting corpses, the terrain here is extremely unfavorable for us, because there are too many dark corners to take care of. If it weren't for you, I would have been able to toss and toss myself, but now...... I really can't guarantee your safety. ”

"I should reiterate, I've got the final say here!" The fierce mastiff's face sank like water, and his small eyes were shining brightly.

"Uh...... Of course, you have the final say, but you should also listen to the rationalization suggestions......" Yaji's tone weakened significantly. I think that this old owner who collected living corpses has already left a shadow in his heart, although he has just made a great contribution, but that credit is not enough to give him a chance to fight for an equal dialogue: "Actually, you should believe me, to deal with zombies, it is best for non-professionals to run to the open field, because then you will be the easiest to find them......"

"Don't worry, Scourge Star." Bob then stepped forward to mediate the conflict. He limped up, patted Yagi on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "I can assure you that Ziot is a zombie nightmare. They can go wild anywhere in this world, but here, they will be honest, because we have a research base here, and the most popular job of those guys is to cut zombies into specimens. ”

It seems that Bob accidentally revealed a secret again, but the fierce mastiff didn't care about it, just snorted, took a step on his own, and acted as a guide.

At Bobu's suggestion, Wu Ming walked behind the fierce mastiff, while Yaji took the initiative to take on the heavy responsibility, supporting his new friend to follow behind. Despite the hundred-kilogram burden on her shoulders, Yaji was still honest, still whispering about the mastiff's tyranny and repeatedly emphasizing how correct her thinking was.

Although Wu Ming didn't talk, he was actually on the side of the mastiff. Wu Ming had to check it out, because he needed to know more about this so-called corpse hunting club, and he needed to know what kind of research they were doing, and that information would help him understand whether the ultimate vision of this organization would benefit the world.

Another important point is that he needs to know if this scientific research base still exists!

There is no doubt that the contradictions hidden within the organization have intensified, and the struggle between the opposing sides has shifted from the shadows to the light, and the first move is a life-and-death move. In this ambush operation,'s opponents spent a lot of money, and the new weapons and new warriors all appeared on the stage in a grand manner, and the snatching of three truckloads of goods was just a pretense, and the main intention should be to take the opportunity to get rid of the mastiff, so as to cut off one of's arms, and this so-called secret base should also be one of their targets.

In Wu Ming's analysis, the fierce mastiff should have also foreseen this result, and because of this, he needed to determine the loss and wait until the debt collection time to list the details.

As for the so-called danger of zombies emphasized by Yaji, Wu Ming didn't take it to heart at all, although the fierce mastiff and Bobu were both injured, but they had proven their strength in the previous hard battles, ordinary zombies would not pose any threat at all, and they didn't even need the big hero of the Ghost Calamity Star to take action, as long as Bobu waved his sandbag-sized fist, how many zombies would be sent back to the grave together.

That being said, when Wu Ming just turned the corner of the street, he suddenly felt a cool air rising from the back of his neck.

"Don't be unlucky enough to eat a stray bullet."

Wu Ming muttered to himself, and subconsciously reached out and touched it.

He realized that he was not injured, and that the cool air should have come from his left shoulder, where there was originally a scar that had been caused by the attack before the crossing. The injury had already healed, but I think it was because the stone-throwing movement just now was too strong, and the scab actually fell off, probably the skin was not healed completely enough, so it was too sensitive to the external environment.

Wu Ming felt a little funny about his suspicions. He tightened his neckline, and the coat that the mastiff had given him was a little looser, and if he didn't hold it with his hands, the wind gusting at night would be really difficult to deal with.

But is it really just a gust of wind?

If Wu Ming stayed for one more minute, he would definitely overturn his conjecture, because at this moment, at the place where that hand-to-hand combat took place, two figures appeared.

The two figures were tall and eerie, like two giants full of four meters tall, but at the shoulders of the giants, several tentacles were stretching out, as if the legendary night demon was searching for human sacrifices in the dark.

The two shadows were black, very thick and dark, darker than every shadow in this deserted city, as if the full moon in the sky had been sucked away by the shadows, making everything around them darker, more gloomy, more terrifying.

A stubborn decision by the Lie Mastiff brought Wu Ming unexpected good fortune, at least keeping him away from what he thought was bad luck, and if he really bypassed this desert city and instead advanced in the desert with a wide field of vision, as Yaji suggested, it would be inevitable to encounter those two terrifying figures.

That would be a dead end!

All four of them will die horribly miserable, leaving only a pile of pitch-black bones, just like the 125 fighters of the Hyena Commando, who died inexplicably and could not even leave a useful piece of information.

But for now, Wu Ming is still safe, because the two figures left.

They seemed a little annoyed, complained to each other like a quarrelsome couple, and eventually chose to go their separate ways, one heading east and the other west.

Soon, the two figures disappeared, leaving only a few wide footprints and the two terrible black lines in the night sky......
