Chapter 12: Chasing After
In the last days, there is no essential difference between men and women.
If Meng Yao felt that she could naturally enjoy preferential treatment from the opposite sex by virtue of her status as a woman, it would be too naΓ―ve.
"You wait!"
Chen Hao also followed, and said anxiously, "Stay, we really need your protection." β
Liao Fan smiled again, and said without looking back, "As a security guard here, isn't it your own duty to maintain order in the mall and protect the safety of every customer?" β
"But we don't even have a decent weapon...... Chen Hao's face suddenly turned red, and he immediately wanted to find a crack in the ground.
His ferocity is only aimed at ordinary people like himself, but there is no way to face that kind of man-eating monster.
Liao Fan didn't want to talk nonsense anymore, so he directly pulled out the dagger, slashed it on the table and chair in the utility room, cut off a few wooden legs, and threw them coldly at the feet of the two.
"As long as you can show the courage to resist, batons, table legs, and even glass shards on the ground can be used as weapons to attack monsters, and there is only so much we can do for you, and then it's up to you."
Leaving these table legs, Liao Fan stopped talking any nonsense and turned around and left directly.
"You cold-blooded and selfish bastard, you can't just leave us like this!"
Chen Hao was anxious, and wanted to catch up with Liao Fan and ask for more help. And Meng Yao, who had been curled up in the corner of the wall, didn't say a word, suddenly stood up silently, picked up the thickest wooden stick, and held it tightly in his hand.
Although her body was still trembling with fear, the words that Liao Fan left just now had a big impact on this woman's heart.
A smart and independent woman naturally knows how to protect herself.
Soon, Liao Fan was out of the sight of the two, Chen Hao was unwilling, and cursed indignantly in his mouth, "This bastard, the wife is too selfish, there will definitely be no good end!" β
Meng Yao raised his head and said, "You better stop arguing, in fact, he is right, in the face of disaster, we can only rely on ourselves, at least, Liao Fan also left us some weapons." β
"Hehe, you can't do anything with these rotten woods alone." Chen Hao kicked away the wooden stick under his feet and shook his head in great collapse.
Meng Yao ignored him, slowly walked to the door, and looked numbly at the hall of the mall.
This killing chase is almost coming to an end, and the snow demon, with its fierce strength and terrifying appearance, scares everyone into losing the courage to resist and can only be slaughtered.
At this time, the hall was in shambles, except for a few survivors who were still running hard, most of them had died tragically under the claws of the monsters, turning into a pile of corpses.
The bloodstains and the screams were like purgatory.
Meng Yao knew very well that once all the people downstairs died, the snow demon would definitely make a comeback, and he would completely put the target on the second floor, and he must not sit still.
Soon, she took a deep breath, looked at Chen Hao, who was still cursing and trembling behind her, and forced her fear, "You should be familiar with this shopping mall, right?" β
"Nonsense, what's wrong......"
Chen Hao was in an irritable mood, but looking at Meng Yao's obviously calmed face, he still tried his best to suppress the urge to scold his mother.
Meng Yao swallowed and kept her voice as smooth as possible, "The monster will soon kill all the people downstairs, we must find a hidden passage to leave the mall before it comes back." β
"There is an internal channel for employees."
Chen Hao finally stopped trembling, and after Meng Yao's reminder, a bright color suddenly flashed in his eyes,
"By the way, that passage can lead directly to the underground garage, and the location is very hidden, so you should be able to avoid the monsters downstairs!"
Hope was rekindled in his eyes, Chen Hao didn't say a word, stepped out of the utility room, and quickly ran to the safe passage behind the end of the corridor.
He had worked here for several years, and was naturally familiar with the environment, so after a while, he pried open the door of the passage and ran into the dark stairwell, and cursed indignantly as he went.
"That damn bastard, he actually left us alone and ran away, but it doesn't matter, he definitely didn't think that there was another way out here, we will be able to leave this hellish place in no time, hehe, this monster, let's leave it to him to deal with himself!"
Meng Yao didn't speak, just cautiously followed, walking along the dark corridor and downstairs.
It was pitch black in the safe passage, echoing the empty footsteps of the two people, and the coldness in the air was everywhere.
As she walked, Meng Yao suddenly stopped again, looking at her surroundings with a strange expression.
"Why aren't you leaving? Come on, we'll be able to escape in no time. Chen Hao, who was walking in front, was stunned, looked back at Meng Yao, and urged puzzled.
Meng Yao looked around cautiously, "The situation is not right, it is so quiet here, and the screams of those people outside have stopped." β
The calming of the screams made the mall return to a dead silence, and this strange silence made Meng Yao even more uneasy.
"What does that mean? Let's go, you're not stupid enough to go back and save people, are you? β
Chen Hao was angry, if it weren't for Meng Yao's beauty, he couldn't help but scold his mother in his mouth, and really wanted to urge her to hurry up, but suddenly, something warm fell from the top of his head, like a liquid, dripping wet on his face.
"Huh?"
Chen Hao was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously touched his forehead with his hand, until a warm feeling came from his palm, and his face suddenly froze.
It's blood!
How can there be blood oozing out of the stairwell?
Chen Hao's face had changed, he raised his chin mechanically, looked at the top of the stairwell with a blank expression, and then his hands and feet began to tremble, and the oppressive feeling of death filled his heart again, and his face was distorted with fright.
I saw a ghostly black shadow hanging upside down on the ceiling of the safe passage, it was a snow demon!
I don't know when, the monster has followed the two into the passage, staring at the bloodshot eyeballs, with a cold and brutal gaze, examining the two lonely figures.
On the back of the monster's neck, two thick tentacles swayed like steel whips, like rattlesnakes, falling into a high-frequency hissing and shaking, and a large amount of black liquid dripped down the tentacles, just smashing on Chen Hao's face.
"Monster...... ItγHe's chasing it! β
In an instant, Chen Hao was so frightened that he cried wolf, turned his head and jumped down the stairs, and ran away.
"Stop, don't run so fast." Meng Yao also realized something, and instinctively shouted.
She hadn't forgotten Liao Fan's reminder, this kind of monster is particularly sensitive to sound, and especially likes to capture fast-moving objects, Chen Hao's run is simply looking for death.
"What can you do if you don't run, wait for death?"
Chen Hao didn't look back, he was already frightened, how could he still pay attention to Meng Yao's words, he only hated his parents for having two legs, and immediately abandoned Meng Yao and ran towards the garage desperately.
Unfortunately, before he could run too far, a desperate sound of breaking the air sounded behind him.
The snow demon's body approached like an afterimage, flicking its tentacles like a steel whip, and it only pierced his back in an instant.
