The trapped beast finally broke free from its chains, and the horse-class zombie raised its terrifying face and showed a hideous smile at the young man beside him.

Seeing that the monster was out of trouble, Lu Yu didn't care about the specific position of the muzzle aim, and shot twice in a row at the opponent's face!

But the expected kill didn't happen, and the two bullets grazed the skull, causing little damage other than a layer of shriveled flesh.

"It's over......"

Lu Yu's brows furrowed tightly, and at the same time, his body quickly retreated, thinking about distancing himself from the monster opposite.

And the horse-level zombies who broke free from the predicament also roared angrily, stomped on the ground with both feet, and rushed out.

Normally, the horse-class zombie's most lethal hunting tool is its legs.

Through high-speed movement and sharp claws on the toes, the target's life is neatly terminated with a sneak attack.

But today, because this horse-level zombie has just been freed from the trap, and there is a crossbow arrow inserted in the Achilles tendon of his left leg, he is more or less unable to move.

It was probably because the hatred of Lu Yu had been fermented for too long, causing the horse-level zombies to make a culling action similar to that of a secondary infection, wanting to knock the prey in front of them to the ground.

Just as the horse-level zombie's thin claws were about to grab Lu Yu's neck, a coquettish cry suddenly came from behind.

"Keep your head down!"

Lu Yu, who was retreating wildly, didn't think about it, he lowered his head directly, sat down with his buttocks back, and seemed to be planning to roll on the spot with the inertia of retreating.

At the moment when he lowered his head, a sharp crossbow arrow flew out of his scalp and headed straight for the neck of the horse-class zombie.

But this crossbow bolt was also only inserted into the monster's body, and did not cause much damage.

"It doesn't work to shoot in the neck, you still have to shoot the Achilles tendon!"

Lu Yu, who was rolling on the ground, shouted, raised his gun and wanted to shoot again, but the legs of the horse-class zombie were extremely flexible, and he couldn't hit it at all.

In desperation, Lu Yu had no choice but to fire at will, pouring out three bullets, in an attempt to delay the opponent's movements.

"Roar!"

The horse-class zombie that was free from the restriction was like a beast out of the cage, and after suffering three bullets, it did not retreat but advanced, its movement speed increased sharply, and it deflected the direction of progress, and rushed to Lu Yu and pounced.

Lu Yu, who had not adjusted his state due to rolling, was directly stunned, and he didn't expect this mutated zombie without eyeballs to be able to judge his location so accurately.

In a hurry, Lu Yu had to raise his arm horizontally and use the butt of his pistol against the head of the horse-level zombie to prevent the other party from biting off his neck.

can take care of the bloody mouth of the horse-level zombie, but he can't control the two arms as thin as bamboo poles.

The jet-black claws that could scratch the car paint could naturally easily pierce Lu Yu's body.

Hearing a muffled snort, the dark red blood color quietly bloomed on the clothes, accompanied by the young man's rapid breathing, and spread out towards the surroundings without stopping.

"Xiao Ran!!"

Enduring the pain coming from his body, Lu Yu shouted the name of the little Lori loudly.

Although his body was injured, his mind was unusually clear.

At this time, the monster threw itself to the ground, and it was the best time for Xiao Ran to make a move.

Looking at Lu Yu who was knocked down by the monster, although Xiao Ran was anxious, she still added another arrow to the modified crossbow very quickly, and at the same time as winding, the girl stepped lightly and approached forward.

She was ready to get closer to make sure the attack was safe.

A tenfold cicada scream emanated from the horse-class zombie's chest, and its keen hearing made it notice the girl's approach.

Lu Yu's bullets did not pose a threat to its hard skull, but the girl's arrows made it feel scared.

The sharp pain in the Achilles tendon of the left leg reminds the monster that the girl who is approaching quickly is more dangerous than the prey below!

Therefore, it wants to quickly deal with the prey under it, and then get up to deal with the girl's attack.

But how could Lu Yu below let the horse-level zombie leave, I saw that he threw away the pistol, put his hands directly around the opponent's neck, and dragged the monster's body back with a strange and firm posture.

This violent action made the sharp claws that pierced into Lu Yu's body advance a few more points, and the pain was like a fuse that burst into flames, constantly burning the young man's reason.

Where he couldn't see, that is, on the surface of the wound pierced by the sharp claws, a large amount of cobweb-like black blood appeared at the same time.

As the pain intensified, the blood seemed to come to life.

At first it was just a slow peristalsis, but over time, the frequency of the vessels became rapid and eerie, as if there were a large number of filamentous parasites pulling and rolling under the skin.

The blood that had been gushing out of the wound slowed down, and then it condensed at an incredible speed.

It's just that in this condensation process, some of the pale yellow mycelium stained on the claws of horse-level zombies also fell into it, and was swallowed and fused by the body.

Of course, all this happened under the cover of clothes, and Lu Yu's current attention was all focused on the horse-level zombies on his body, so he didn't notice the abnormality of the wound at all.

The pain of the original tear was blunted, as if a clear shield had been added between the wound and Lu Yu's nerves, and at best he felt a tingling.

"Buzz!"

The crossbow's bowstring shook the air, and the arrows flew into the Achilles tendon of the horse-class zombie's right leg with a buzzing sound.

This was followed by another roar from the horse-class zombies.

In fact, now both Xiao Ran and Lu Yu understand that the current attack on the Achilles tendon is only a delay.

After all, because neither the bolts nor the bullets could break through the skull, they couldn't end the monster's life at all.

The only way to ensure one's own safety can be achieved by constantly weakening the opponent's ability to act.

But how long can this weakening last?

You must know that the monster that knocked Lu Yu down was not an ordinary cat or dog, but a genuine mutated zombie.

The two of them who had dealt with phase-level zombies before knew that as long as they were mutated zombies, they would have more or less self-healing capabilities.

Imagine the Chinese network

Although the monster in front of him didn't look as strong as a zombie, judging from its skull that could block bullets, it was by no means an existence that could be easily killed.

The real threat of death is like food that has quietly spoiled, and when Lu Yu and Xiao Ran smell the musty stench, the two realize that they are only one step away from losing their lives.

"This time it's hard stubble...... Xiao Ran, don't worry about it, run away! ”

Lu Yu, who sensed that something was wrong, had already begun to think about the girl's retreat, their weapons couldn't kill the weird monster in front of him at all, although the horse-level zombie could still be trapped by him now, but if he lost blood and ran out of strength, the next person to be threatened was Xiao Ran next to him.

"What nonsense are you talking about, where did the strength to deal with the muscle monster go in the first place, explode again!"

The girl's immature face was full of anxiety, but the movements in her hands did not stop in the slightest, and when her fingertips flew, another crossbow arrow was put on the bowstring.

Aim, shoot, all in one go.

The target is still the monster's Achilles tendon position.

"If it can break out, what will I do holding back, waiting for the New Year, this thing is uncontrollable......"

Lu Yu roared hard, trying to recall his own state when he fought against the muscle monster.

But instead of showing any increase in strength, the hands around the monster's neck became more and more sore.

It was as if something was rapidly draining the power in his body, and he was about to lose control of the horse-level zombies on his body.

"Run, I can't hold it......"

A laborious reminder spat out from Lu Yu's throat, and as the horse-level zombies struggled more and more violently, the young man's arms slipped down little by little.

As if it was for a gamble, and as if it didn't want to believe everything that had happened before.

Xiao Ran's silver teeth clenched, and he suddenly aimed the crosshair of the modified crossbow at the head of the horse-class zombie that had few hairs left.

The human skull is composed of a total of eight skulls, the hardest part of which is the frontal bone of the forehead, and the most vulnerable part is the "wing point" located in the temporal fossa, that is, the "H" shaped suture formed by the splicing of several brain bones.

This "H" shaped suture is located at the weakest point of the lateral wall of the cranial cavity, which is often referred to as the "temple" location.

The content about human anatomy was all the knowledge that Xiao Ran had seen from medical books, and her ability to remember it made her easily recall this memory.

Although it is not clear that the body structure of zombies is somewhat similar to humans, it stands to reason that zombies are mutated by humans infected with viruses, and they should not be much different.

Anyway, there's no other way right now, so just take a gamble and give it a try!

The fingertip hooked the trigger, and the crossbow arrow was fired, and the target was the temple of the horse-class zombie.

But at this moment, the horse-level zombie "twitched" without warning, and its forehead and neck were raised upwards at the same time, as if a pair of invisible hands were forcibly pulling this terrifying monster.

Because of this deviation, the bolt did not pierce the fragile temple, but instead pierced the cheeks.

The black mucus gushing out of the wound suddenly flowed down the big mouth of the horse-level zombie and dripped on Lu Yu's face.

"Oops!"

Xiao Ran secretly screamed in his heart, and his mood became bitter and abnormal.

Just when the girl thought that the monster entangled with Lu Yu was about to get out of trouble, something strange happened.

The horse-class zombie that dodged the fatal blow due to the sudden "convulsions" suddenly stopped struggling, like a still stone sculpture, and no longer made any movement.

"Run, Xiao Ran! Hey...... Why didn't it move......"

Feeling that the monster pressing on his body no longer moved, Lu Yu laboriously wiped the black slime off his face and looked up.

What caught my eye was a big mouth of blood, and the smell of fishy smell was still there.

Looking inside, a brownish-yellow arrow pierced the mouth, and from the wounds on both sides, it should be the source of black mucus.

"This monster seems to be dead......

After maintaining vigilance for more than ten seconds, Lu Yu finally frowned and said with doubts.

"Did you do something?"

Xiao Ran next to him also stepped forward with a crossbow arrow and asked.

It's just that the girl's vigilance is far higher than that of Lu Yulai, although she is constantly getting closer, but the crosshair of the modified crossbow has not left the monster for half a minute.

"Nope...... I didn't do anything, I just tried to control it as much as I could, so you could attack......"

Hearing Xiao Ran's answer, Lu Yu's face was even more puzzled, wasn't it Xiao Ran's last blow that killed the mutant zombies, what happened just now......
