Chapter 25: The Transformation of the Male Corpse
After getting the information they wanted, Yang Haocheng and the others went back to arrange work. It will probably tell everyone not to stay away from the fire as much as possible, not to act alone, etc.
Because before the two of them left, they also told Mu Feng and them like this.
Although there is no danger other than jellyfish, and jellyfish do not actively attack people, they still arrange patrols to keep the camp running.
Because more than half of the people were infected, the original team was no longer formed.
Through discussion, except for Mu Feng and their team, the staff brought the rest of the people together, regrouped them, and divided them into two teams.
And because now with Mu Feng and their team, there are only three teams left, and the patrol time of each team has changed from two hours at the beginning to three hours.
And in the detachment, they also try to let acquaintances in a team. This is also because everyone has a tacit understanding with each other, and it is much easier to act.
Now the pressure on the patrol has been drastically reduced, and it is not as hard as before, and because there are infected people in the team, it is the turn of the patrol to feed them.
People who have touched jellyfish and got sick are called infected. These infected people are unable to move and eat on their own, so they are fortunate to be able to swallow the food that is delivered to their mouths. So, it takes the patrol guys, spoonful by spoonful, to their mouths.
……
The next day's breakfast time was the time period when Mu Feng's patrols were, so the work of feeding the infected naturally fell on their heads.
And because some of these infected people have lost the ability to move and can only be fed liquid food, Mu Feng and they first boiled a pot of water, put compressed biscuits into boiling water, boiled into a paste, and then began to feed in pairs.
Zhao Yang picked up one of the infected people, and Mu Feng held a bowl in one hand and a spoon in the other, feeding each other spoonful by spoon.
Wait for a bowl of mush to bottom out, and then change another person to continue.
In this way, they came to the front of the heavily infected.
These five people have long been delirious, and the strength to move is gone, giving people a feeling that they will die at any time. Miraculously, they have survived to this point.
"Do you think there are a lot of jellyfish in this area?" Walking to the critical area, Mu Feng looked at the group of jellyfish floating above, and asked Zhao Yang beside him in a low voice.
"It seems to be a little," Zhao Yang looked at the vicinity, and also frowned, "Clear the scene first?" Don't accidentally bump into it for a while. ”
"Yes, you can." As he spoke, Mu Feng picked up the mechanical stick that he put in his sleeve, took out the shovel head from his backpack and connected it, and began to shoot the jellyfish one by one.
They are already very skilled in this business, as for why they don't kill, it's because there are too many of them to kill at all.
The second is that these jellyfish don't look soft like jelly, but they don't have anything to do when they fight.
Probably because it's resilient, it can cancel out most of the attacks.
And because they don't take the initiative to attack people, everyone just clears the field and goes with them.
Probably fed two people, and when he walked to the third person, Zhao Yang sighed lightly.
"What's wrong?" Mu Feng asked.
"This man seems to ...... No more breathing. Zhao Yang's face was not very good-looking, and he was faintly pale, but he still couldn't help the discomfort, stretched out his hand to the other party's nose, and probed the other party's breath.
"W-no, won't?" Mu Feng was also a little scared, but he still resisted the urge to turn around, and also went over to probe.
It's not that Mu Feng and the two of them are hypocritical, it's because they haven't encountered this situation in their lives, so they will inevitably be scared and helpless.
The last time they died, they had not been in close contact, so they didn't feel it as strongly as they do now.
"What to do? It seems that he has just died, and his body is still soft. Zhao Yang turned pale with a pale face, turned his head to ask Mu Feng, and also put down the corpse in his arms.
"Go talk to the instructors and let them come and have a look." Mu Feng could feel the tremor in his voice, but he still tried to remain calm.
"Well, you're going to talk about it?" Zhao Yang withdrew his hand and asked Mu Feng. He was afraid that Mu Feng would not want to stand next to the corpse, so he proposed.
"I want to too," Mu Feng sighed, a little helpless, "but my legs and stomach are trembling now, and I can't walk at all." ”
Mu Feng is really enduring it.
"Okay, don't stand here either, I'll go back." Looking at Mu Feng who pretended to be calm, Zhao Yang took a deep breath, calmed down again, and patted Mu Feng's shoulder.
"Well, go ahead, don't go out publicly, let's see what the instructor says first." Mu Feng waved his hand at the other party and sat aside.
Now the people in the camp are already panicking, everyone's mood is very unstable, Mu Feng is afraid that when everyone hears the news, some people will not be able to accept the collapse.
"Okay, I'll come when I go." Zhao Yang tried his best to slow down and walked towards Yang Haocheng's location.
During this period, Lu Yao and the others inquired about the situation, and Mu Feng only said that Zhao Yang seemed to have something to find Instructor Yang, saying that he would come when he went.
Hearing this kind of answer, everyone basically won't bother to ask.
After talking to Lu Yao and the others, Mu Feng forced himself to calm down and turned his head to look at the deceased next to him.
After observing the other party for about a minute, she reluctantly got up and walked over to the other seriously ill patients to observe their expressions.
Before the instructors arrived, she had to do everything she could to investigate the situation and see if there were any other deceased.
At this glance, she really saw another person's problem.
This man must have touched a red jellyfish and was flushed all over. But at this time, he just lay quietly on the ground, motionless.
Mu Feng walked to the other party's side and probed the other party's breath......
It's out of gas.
But no matter how she looked at it, this person's body didn't look like a cold corpse. So, she plucked up her courage, put her hand on the other's chest, and began to probe the other's heartbeat......
There was no movement.
She checked the other patients again, and after making sure that only the two were dead, she turned around and prepared to return to the original deceased.
However, when she was about to turn around, the corner of her eye swept to the man who had just died, and his body seemed to bulge.
Mu Feng turned his head back and locked his gaze on the deceased again.
"Did you read it wrong?" She muttered and took a step back, but her eyes stared at the corpse in front of her without blinking, not daring to miss any details.
Suddenly, the man's corpse twitched and shook violently.
"Aren't you dead?" This was Mu Feng's second thought in this second.
And the changes on the man's body, once they started, had no intention of stopping: they quickly expanded and deformed, and small bulges the size of fists appeared on his body, as if small balloons were blown up on the other party's body for a while, and then quickly deflated. It was like balloons swimming under each other's skin, causing a chain reaction.
The change only happens for a moment, and the human body has not had time to react. Mu Feng just subconsciously raised his hand to cover his mouth during this time; The corpse's head swelled rapidly, its skin pulled to the point of near-transparency, and its eyes bulged out of their sockets.
And the head is not the whole story of the mutation.
The rest of the man's corpse was also horrifically transformed: his limbs were like ham sausages, turning into small bulges of different sizes, like the tentacles of an octopus, swinging back and forth and twitching, flailing aimlessly on the ground.
The shoulders gradually contracted inward, the neck quickly contracted and thinned, and finally disappeared into a balloon that had long since become unrecognizable and swollen into a balloon that could not be hugged by one person.
The male corpse, right under Mu Feng's nose, turned into a transparent jellyfish.
"Ahh ……”
"Be careful!"
A sound of caution sounded at the same time as Mu Feng's scream, Yang Haocheng rushed over with an arrow step, grabbed the back of Mu Feng's neck, pulled her into his arms, and took her away from the scene of the accident, saving her from the clutches of the jellyfish.
