Chapter 189: Ubin Bridge

The sudden screams broke the silence of the night, and Shu Yungui and Qi Yan stood up at the same time and rushed under the bridge amid the scattered birds and beasts!

Shu Yungui pulled out the air beam energy gun with his backhand, and shot the creature that was rushing towards him quickly, and then looked at it closely, only to realize that it was just a wild fox.

Billy's screams continued, and he crawled out from under the Umin Bridge, Qi Yan quickly grabbed the person, and covered his mouth with both hands from behind.

"Woooooooooo Woo!"

Billy struggled, he seemed to be so frightened, Qi Yan could barely hold him, Shu Yun returned to front of them, his eyes staring at a black wriggling strange creature under the bridge.

The ears are filled with the sound of mucus wrapped in limbs, like a person soaked in glue, and the slightest movement will make it sticky. The sound of tired bubbles, the black shadow was only active under the bridge, Shu Yungui couldn't see what that thing looked like, but he could be sure that it was a vicious mutant, that is, the so-called orc of the ninth star.

Billy bit out Qi Yan's hand to blood, and only then could he stop screaming, the sound stopped abruptly, and the movements of the black creature under the bridge also stopped, and Shu Yungui found that it seemed to rely on sound to distinguish its direction.

He turned back to Qi Yan and made a silent motion, Qi Yan immediately nodded in understanding, dragged the frightened Billy into the grass, and asked in his ear, "What do you see?"

The extremely frightened person could only "snort" and pant, and the black shadow under the bridge crawled a few steps forward with the sound of his heavy breathing, and then stopped with Shu Yungui's sudden movement in the opposite direction.

The mutant was unconscious, and voices coming from both directions at the same time hindered its attack, and it seemed to judge the current situation, and for a moment it was speechless.

"Fish ......"

Billy grabbed Qi Yan's hand tightly, his head was covered with cold sweat, and his face was still covered with fishy mucus, and he was terrified: "A fish with a human face!"

Qi Yan suddenly looked up at Shu Yungui, and the two of them looked at the black shadow under the Wumin Bridge at the same time.

Aquatic mutants?

Shu Yungui has been fighting against malignant deformations for so long, and he has never seen aquatic malignant deformations, because human beings themselves do not have the physical structure to survive underwater for a long time, so water has always been considered a natural barrier that can be used to isolate human malignant transformation.

Therefore, the IAFA base will choose to be built on the seabed, and the impacted cabin will also choose to use a large amount of liquid medicine to soak the malignant mutant to achieve the purpose of preventing further malignant transformation.

Aquatic organisms have never been much of a threat to humans because, unlike amphibians, they cannot leave water sources for long periods of time, and as long as humans do not enter the water, they pose little of a threat.

Sure enough, the two sides only stalemate for a short time, and the black shadow under the bridge did not show its true body, but turned around and jumped back into the river with a "poof", and soon disappeared into the rushing river.

Shu Yungui held the gun and cautiously entered under the bridge, there was still a large pool of mucus left on the solidified hard ground, Shu Yungui raised his head, and a drop of liquid that smelled of dead fish and rotten shrimp grazed the tip of his nose and fell.

He quickly climbed to the base of the Ubin Bridge, and the soles of his shoes "clicked", as if he had stepped on something.

A little spark came out of his fingertips, illuminating the space in front of him with the power of the fire elemental mutation.

It was a beam about three meters in diameter, with a pit carved out by sharp claws in the middle, and the scratches on all sides were clearly visible.

There was a puddle of water in the pit, an eerie green color, and a string of fist-sized follicles in it, which looked unusually cloudy in the light of the flames.

Mutants do not have the ability to reproduce, because once humans are malignant, their bodies are actually dead, and it is the Cree genes in their bodies that drive the activities of malignant mutants.

Shu Yungui raised his foot, the soles of his shoes were stained with a puddle of slime, and a string of follicles by the puddle was exploded by him, oozing a foul-smelling green thick liquid.

Obviously, the string of follicles is no longer viable, and if the aquatic mutant is their mother, then the mutant must have been pregnant before the mutation.

The malignant transformation of the mother causes the embryo in the body to also undergo malignant transformation, and the fetus is stillborn, but as the mother

's instinct still prompted it to lay these dead eggs, and attacking Billy just now is probably also a natural behavior of the animal to protect its cubs.

Shu Yungui jumped off the bridge, Billy was vomiting, Qi Yan patted him on the back while looking around nervously, worried that Billy's sound of almost vomiting his heart, liver, spleen and stomach would attract orcs.

"How? Is it an orc?"

Qi Yan asked.

Shu Yungui nodded and said, "The situation is a little troublesome, we met an orc who had just given birth, and its children were all dead, although it was not caused by Billy, but with the intelligence of the orc, I am afraid that Billy will be regarded as an enemy."

Billy, who was lying on the grass and vomiting, turned around when he heard the sound and said with a frightened face, "Huh?! Why?! I didn't do anything!"

"In this situation, there is no point in dwelling on what you have done and what you have not done."

Shu Yungui glanced at the sky, it was expected that it would be dawn soon, the fishing rod was not empty, he caught a few fish, he used a reed rod to pierce the fish, and asked Qi Yan to collect all the fishing tools, the three of them returned to the car tower away from the water source, and after a while, the No. 1 car appeared at the end of the road.

Raymond parked the car firmly beside the three of them, and Kony lowered the rear window and asked Shu Yungui with interest what food he found.

Shu Yungui raised the big fish in his hand at him, and Billy thought of the monster with the human head and fish body when he saw the fish, and couldn't help but turn pale, covering his mouth and spitting on the wheel.

"Hey!"

Raymond was almost splashed by him, leaning on the driver's door and asking, "What's going on?"

"It's a long story, but there was a little accident."

Shu Yungui shook his head and said, "What about you? Did you find a wheel of the same model?"

Raymond sighed, shook his head and said, "No, we can't wait to run through all the auto repair shops in the whole of Fast City, and only find two working tires, but car number two needs to replace four tires."

"Then it seems that we can only give up the second car, doesn't it mean that even if we can't find the accessories, we can find a new car? Have you looked for it?"

Vincent covered his face and said embarrassedly: "The cars that can be used in the city have been stolen by the homeless, and the remaining parts may be able to make do with a car, but carpooling is a big project, at least you need to find the wreckage of dozens of cars."

Harvey grimaced and said, "We don't have that much time to spend here, it's unrealistic to reassemble the vehicle."

"So what do we do? Car No. 1 is now at its maximum capacity, and we have three more people, and it may take months to walk to Coper on both legs."

Harvey's face was gloomy, his hands were crossed, and he sat in the back seat in silence for a long time before he said extremely unwillingly: "Abandon some of the supplies, only keep food, fuel and weapons, and throw away everything else, travel lightly, and strive to reach the Claronin Alchemy Field as quickly as possible."

Everyone looked at each other, every material on the car was found by the bounty team desperately out of the city with their lives, and it was really reluctant to throw it away at the moment, but this was the only way at the moment, because no matter what, Harvey must go to the Claronin Alchemy Field.

Soon, everyone began to quietly cooperate in moving supplies, except for the food, fuel, and weapons that Harvey had mentioned, everything else was removed from the car and abandoned under the car tower.

The rear car body vacated a small area, Shu Yungui, Billy and Qi Yan squeezed into the car body, Harvey was in a hurry, and did not plan to stay in Fast City for a long time, he had to return to the main road as soon as possible, otherwise the rest of the trip would not be able to get fuel supplies along the road.

Car No. 2 has been scrapped, and Car No. 1 is their last hope to get to Coper City.

"Take the Ubin Bridge across Fast City to get back to the main road of the Partington River, which is the fastest way."

Vincent turned around and handed Harvey the map, although there were no schools in the outer city, they still understood the shortest straight line between two points, and the Umin Bridge across the Pattington River tributary was the shortest straight line.

Not long after leaving the Umin Bridge, Shu Yungui and the others watched as the No. 1 car returned to the side of the bridge, and the human army on the bridge resisted the remnants of the orcs

Although the guns have been picked up by the homeless, the scattered bones and the sunken bridge deck full of scratches are telling the tragedy of the war.

The wheels rolled the weathered bones of twenty years into ashes, and the wind blew them into the river, where they flowed into the Partington River and finally into the sea.

The bones were creaking, the wheels were jolting, and Shu Yungui looked out of the car to both sides of the riverbank, wondering how many years the relics of human civilization could hold out under the ravages of the evil transformation.

"The wind is blowing."

Qi Yan looked at the more and more clear ripples on the river surface and said, "The bridge is in disrepair, and it is dangerous to cross the bridge on a windy day."

He climbed the bucket and knocked on the rear window, reminding Raymond to speed up.

Not only the wind, but also a cloud of fog on the bridge, almost in the blink of an eye, the surrounding areas became invisible, and Raymond's fingers holding the steering wheel were white, which showed how nervous he was, but Rao was so, and the front of the car still kept making slight impacts.

Everyone in the car was turned upside down, especially the three people in the body, they had no shelter, and they were almost thrown out of the car several times.

"Something is wrong......

Shu Yungui tightly grasped the body baffle, supported his body hard, half-knelt in the body, pressed the pistol on his waist with one hand, and nervously stared at the increasingly thick fog around him.

Suddenly, a familiar stench suddenly came, and Billy, who was apprehensive about it, instantly turned pale, and Shu Yungui immediately pulled the rainproof cloth behind him, and firmly covered the three of them under the raincloth!

The next moment, the surging river water suddenly exploded dozens of meters high, and the strong vibration made the base of the Ubin Bridge shake violently, and as the ugly creature jumped up from the water with a heavy mist and foul smell, it fell on the hood with a "bang", and the windshield was immediately covered with the slime he spewed!

Raymond subconsciously stepped on the brakes, and everyone threw himself forward, but the hands and feet of the monster on the hood seemed to be very sticky, and so much inertia failed to throw it off the car.

The fragile windshield cracked under its impact, and the slime began to seep into the car through the cracks, and Raymond opened the door and jumped out, raising his musket and shooting at the monster!
