05. Licker
Ordinary zombies don't have too fast speed, they only have survival and eating instincts, but they have a stiff body that doesn't feel pain and doesn't destroy the nerve center, so they won't fall, and after being infected and mutated by the virus, they have much more strength than ordinary people. So to escape, in fact, it is also a very simple thing, Zhou Chu quickly got rid of the zombies that followed, and dodged a few zombies that suddenly appeared in the shadows on the road, flashed into a 24-hour convenience store, and then after checking it, he turned around and blocked the broken door with the cashier counter.
It's safe for now......
Zhou Chu sat down tiredly, leaning on the shelves scattered all over the place, even in a dream, the feeling of exhaustion was so real and strong.
I felt the cigarette that had already crumpled into a ball due to strenuous exercise, took out one and lit it, took a long breath, and then exhaled, and the whole person relaxed.
Listening to the screams and cries for help from time to time in the distance, as well as sporadic or intensive gunshots, Zhou Chu didn't know what kind of expression Lu Dao should have now. Even if you are so tired that you almost fall asleep like fainting, you still can't stop your consciousness from entering this nightmare, and the strangeness of the previous few days can't help but make people uneasy and frightened. It's just that no matter how frightened and uneasy he is, he has fallen into this nightmare again, and the top priority is to protect himself in this strange nightmare.
With this in mind, Zhou Chu rested for a while, then stood up, and after finding a flashlight at the cash register, he began to search.
Even if you can see clearly what is on the ground with the light that comes in slightly through the outside and the flashlight in your hand, it is not so easy to find the right thing in such darkness, among the scattered and messy items. According to his own cognition and thoughts, Zhou Chu found some things that he felt were useful for self-preservation and survival.
A backpack, a large bag of compressed biscuits, a multi-functional folding knife, a few bottles of purified water, a few lighters, a few boxes of matches, a few plastic bags, and some bandages and adhesive tapes, such a small convenience store, can only find these, Zhou Chu found a few more easy-to-carry food, and stuffed them into the bag together.
That's pretty much it, Zhou Chu looked at the backpack, and couldn't think of anything for a while, his plan was to just stay here until dawn, or wake up, the nightmare seems to be getting more and more coherent recently, and the next time I enter this nightmare, I'm afraid these things will be there, at least with these things, there is no problem with self-protection in a short time, as for the weapon, Zhou Chu looked at the submachine gun in his hand, as well as two magazines, and a pistol, which is already very good, it really doesn't work, in such a turbulent city, Basic self-defense weapons are still easy to find.
Feel...... It's like playing a survival game or a local Chinese Resident Evil, it's just a nightmare version, and authenticity is probably the most terrifying and best selling point, but will one day, the nightmare version become the real version?
Startled by his sudden thoughts, Zhou Chu laughed self-deprecatingly, ready to find a place to stay until dawn, he was a little tired and sleepy, but he also felt a little ridiculous, and he would want to sleep in his dreams, but he didn't dare to sleep in reality.
After checking the blocked door again to make sure that it could not be broken unless a large group of zombies swarmed, Zhou Chu walked towards the back of the convenience store, intending to find a safer place to rest there for a while. It was only after a few steps inside, but Zhou Chu instinctively stopped.
Windy?
It should be an almost completely enclosed environment, and even if there is air circulation, it should come from the side of the gate, not from the inside, and the wind is still a little strong, at least it can be clearly felt. That is, inside the convenience store, there is another exit, a door or something, but in any case, it must be open. …,
Zhou Chu suddenly became nervous, if this opening was big enough, then it was likely that there would be zombies staying inside. After despising his carelessness, Zhou Chu cautiously pulled out his pistol, held a flashlight in his left backhand as a butt, and walked forward cautiously with his right hand.
The warehouse was not large, only the size of a classroom, and the goods and shelves were scattered in all directions, and after bypassing a row of shelves, Zhou Chu finally found the source of the flowing wind—above the rear of the warehouse, a skylight opened, and the howling night wind continued to sweep in from there.
It's just a skylight, Zhou Chu breathed a sigh of relief. With a skylight of this size, there is no way for a slow-moving and stiff zombie to get in, let alone such a height.
Zhou Chu put his mind at ease and was about to leave, but there was a sound of something being knocked over in the dark, which immediately made his whole nerves tense, and the gun and flashlight in his hand shone in that direction.
In the aperture, a cardboard box sat quietly there, and there was no sign of any living creature otherwise.
Rats? Zhou Chu thought so, but the flashlight and muzzle in his hand were still held high, and he didn't dare to put it down, so after going on for nearly a minute, he swept the neighborhood again before putting down the flashlight and pistol, and turned around to leave.
But before he turned around and took a step, suddenly something cold liquid dripped on the back of his neck, cold and viscous.
The moment this liquid dripped on the back of Zhou Chu's neck, the pores of Zhou Chu's whole body exploded, and the nerves of the whole person were instantly forced to an extremely tight state by fear, and then with an arrow step, he rolled forward!
At the same time, where Zhou Chu was originally standing, there was a sound of something rushing down.
This is not a standard forward roll, the process of rolling also hit something hard, hitting Zhou Chu's arm for a while pain and soreness, but Zhou Chu can't estimate that much at all, after the roll, regardless of the possibility that a non-standard sudden turn will lead to a foot fall, a turn, the flashlight and the muzzle of the gun at the same time.
In the pillar of light, a monster with no eyes, all limbs mutated into claws, no trace of the skin on his body, only scarlet flesh-colored muscles, even the brain exposed, dragging a tongue like a long snake, was on all fours, erecting its terrible head, listening to something.
Damn, lick grandpa! Zhou Chu couldn't help but curse in his heart.
THE LICKER, A SKINLESS MONSTER WITH A TWO-METER-LONG TONGUE WITH ITS LONG CLAWS AND BRAIN EXPOSED. In the Resident Evil series, after the virus is infected to humans, the second stage of virus evolution, the forelimbs mutate into claws, which can move and hunt on the ceiling, walls and other places more quickly and easily. The optic nerve has completely degenerated, but the tactile and auditory nerves have evolved beyond that of ordinary wild animals. Their extremely fast metabolism increases their wound healing speed by several times, so in the absence of heavy weapons, it is extremely unlikely that an average human will survive if they meet them. But if the marksmanship is more accurate and can hit the brain, the licker will definitely die.
Zhou Chu was motionless, even his breathing was extremely cautious, but his brain was hovering rapidly.
Yes, he will definitely die, but it's not Tian Ye, it's him, although it is said that the headshot will die, but Nima's is coaxing! The movement speed of the licker is usually almost equal to, and even some will be higher than the maximum speed that the human eye can capture, and the licker's movement at close range, it is estimated that his eyes can only capture a swishing invisible afterimage, and also aim, and the head, this is much more awesome vision and crosshair, Zhou Chuzhi said that he would never be able to do it.
Zhou Chu stared at the licker closely, perhaps because the night wind was too strong to interfere with the licker's hearing, the monster was still listening, as if determining Zhou Chu's position. …,
Can't do it...... Then run, Zhou Chu put his hand behind his back and felt out a magazine, although at this time, theoretically it is said that there is no way to discard the bullet, but there is nothing on his body that can make a louder sound and movement, the pistol is not good, the flashlight is not good, the submachine gun behind the back is even worse, and the only thing left is a relatively heavy magazine.
took the magazine in his hand and flipped it, and then Zhou Chu secretly used his strength and suddenly smashed the magazine to the other side!
Crash!
This time Zhou Chu's luck was good, and the magazine seemed to hit a crumbling shelf, which immediately caused a series of loud movements. And at the moment when the sound sounded, the lickers in the pillar of light also pounced on that side at the same time.
Now is the time! Zhou Chu immediately turned around and rushed towards the door outside the warehouse, he knew that as long as he slowed down for a second, the licker would immediately pounce on this side.
But it was still a second slower, and when Zhou Chu rushed to the door, he heard the sound of something being knocked over from behind him, and then instinctively he threw himself directly to the ground, and there was a feeling that a huge object was passing from above.
There is no doubt that it must be the licking master, Zhou Chu immediately squatted up after he fell, and the flashlight shone in front of him as soon as possible, and the pistol in his hand finally rang out at this time.
Syllable! Syllable! Syllable!
After the three gunshots, the licker who shook the flashlight at that moment had already disappeared, Zhou Chu stood up, holding the gun, and did not dare to relax his vigilance at all. He knew that the three shots just now, at most, only one shot hit the licking master, and it would not cause any damage to the powerful licking master at all, and now this licking master must be quietly hidden or approaching somewhere, waiting for the opportunity to give him a fatal blow at any time. And there is no way to hide his whereabouts anymore, the series of fierce movements just now have already exceeded the load of Zhou Chu, heavy breathing and panting, how can not escape the perverted hearing of the licker.
Zhou Chu slowly stepped back, but his heel touched something, and when he touched such a thing, a bold and absurd idea suddenly popped up in Zhou Chu's mind.
Seems like you can give it a try? No, if you retreat again, there is a warehouse, and there is no place to escape at all, and even if you run, Zhou Chu asked himself that even if Bolt came, he would not be able to run away from the licking master, let alone himself.
Well, give it a try.
Zhou Chu quickly made a rough calculation in his mind, then took a deep breath, slammed his heel and knocked on the object he had just touched, and the whole person suddenly sped up and fell backwards.
Tong! Almost immediately after that, there was a dull thud, and a crisp gunshot, followed by the crash of something heavy hitting an object.
Zhou Chu got up from the ground, the impact of his back and the impact of his chest made him feel pain, and the moment he was knocked away, the liquid that burst poured on Zhou Chu's head and face, and the fishy hot smell made his stomach twitch, but he still forcibly suppressed the feeling of vomiting, staggered forward, pointed the gun at the body of the licker on the ground, and kicked it with his foot, and after confirming his death, he sat down against the wall as if he had been drained of all his strength.
But after just sitting for a while, Zhou Chu remembered something, got up, pushed a shelf to the wall with great effort, and then carried a heavy iron box to the top of the shelf, completely blocked the broken ventilation skylight, and put a few shelves and boxes into an imperceptible rectangle, before he walked outside, picked up the backpack, got into the warehouse, and climbed into the rectangle.
Although there are still disgusting licker corpses outside, there shouldn't be any monsters to find here and be able to break in silently, even if it's a licking master, it has to make a lot of noise, and now here, for a while, this is a relatively safe place, you can sleep well.
He was really tired, whether it was in his dream or in reality, his mind and body were exhausted to the extreme, so with a submachine gun and backpack in his arms, Zhou Chu fell asleep groggily.
It's just that when he was about to fall into a deep sleep, Zhou Chu was vague and seemed to hear a faint voice.
"If you pass the first stage of survival, you will enter the second stage of survival, and you will be promoted to the first stage of survival, and the reward will be ...... Allow re-contact with the guide...... Accidentally triggers the Licker episode, special reward ......"
Zhou Chu didn't hear it too truly, his voice was distant and vague, he subconsciously wanted to capture and remember the content inside, but he couldn't resist the attack of exhaustion and drowsiness, and soon fell into a deep unconscious sleep.
There was only darkness and dead silence
