The moon is red, but not as bright as the one I saw yesterday.
The five people were so frightened that they couldn't care too much and started running.
On the wide plain, the infected bodies received the light and moved faster. The infected prairie dog sprang out like a meteor, squeaking, its incisors raised like javelins, and shot at the front door of Maji who was running in front.
Even if it is strengthened, a groundhog is still a groundhog after all!
Markie held the steel fork in front of him, and the infected prairie dog hit the fork and was thrown to the right by Markie.
After the groundhog got up after being pierced through its body, it continued to chase them step by step.
With the blessing of Xiang En's magic, it was impossible for these little things to catch up with them. They were afraid that large infected zombies would appear in front of them, or that all the ghosts in the pasture behind them would come out to chase them.
The road ahead was clearly visible, but there were no zombie beasts as big as cows or horses. There were only scattered small infected zombie beasts wandering around.
Xiang En looked back at the pasture many times. Fortunately, there was no strange movement in the pasture, and the monsters inside did not notice them.
The elimination of the threat from the ranch made them less nervous, but the next problem arose again.
How can they get rid of the small zombie beast chasing behind them
In order to save energy, Xiang En did not dare to think too much and adjusted his formation.
Marki opened the way in front, the two younger brothers stood on the left and right sides respectively, and Andrea was behind, firmly protecting Xiang En in the middle.
The small zombie beasts that gathered around were either kicked away or carried away by steel forks. Their moving speed did not slow down at all, running at a speed faster than walking to save as much energy as possible.
There was still no movement in the pasture, and nothing bad happened. They ran for a long time, until the moon in the sky reached its highest point, and nothing too bad happened.
The red light of the moon illuminates the road ahead. On the plain, the road is so vast and terrifying that it seems to have no end!
No matter how long they ran, the scenery would not change drastically.
Andrea looked back and saw a surging "black tide" under the red moonlight.
Hours of running alerted all the zombie beasts they met along the way, and they followed him relentlessly, like hungry wolves that would never give up until they had meat.
At first, zombie beasts would occasionally catch up with them and attack, but after running for two hours, their speed slowed down, and many zombie beasts suddenly became unable to move and fell out of the team.
This made Andrea know that these were not undead creatures with endless physical strength, and she became more confident in surviving.
Crack!
Ma Ji, who was running in front, suddenly stopped, and Xiang En, who was chasing behind him, was also forced to stop. As soon as he stopped, the others stopped too.
"Boss...Boss!" Ma Ji gasped, not daring to speak too loudly, but just moved his body so that Xiang En could see what was in front of him.
Panting from exhaustion, Xiang En looked forward and saw a group of buildings at the end of his field of vision under the light of the red moon. The scale was larger than the small town he had just encountered.
It was a small town, and just around the small town, strange birds flying all over the sky and large zombie beasts wandering were "carnivaling". The picture was full of chaos and mystery.
Although there is a building that can allow several people to take refuge, the prerequisite is that they can break through the monster's blockade and sneak in quietly!
Now, they don't have the ability to go inside. Everyone's mouth is dry and their eyes are dim.
Fighting in is completely unrealistic!
Xiang En looked left, right, and finally looked at the Kuroshio behind him who was about to catch up. He pointed to the left side of the commercial road and said: "Go left, keep going!"
After determining the target, the group of people quickly turned around, abandoning the gravel road that they had trampled over the years, and stepped into an undeveloped area full of dirt and grass.
The grassland of the plains does not necessarily represent life, but also traps and dangers.
There are countless puddles hidden in the undulating grass. Once you step on the ground, your feet will sink into the mud, which will increase the consumption of physical strength and slow down the speed of movement.
In order not to be torn apart by monsters, Xiang En could only make this dangerous decision.
While running, Xiang En took out two pieces of bread with his hands and gnawed them, recovering his magic power and physical strength at the same time.
In addition, he kneaded a piece of bread for Andrea and Marki.
They also know the magic of bread, and they don’t stop even if the food in their stomachs hurts.
It is really a helpless move to go deep into the "roadless" grassland.
Just like that, he walked all the way without slowing down, maintaining his speed to the point where the zombie herd behind him couldn't keep up.
After entering the grassland where no humans exist, the number of zombie beasts encountered along the way has actually decreased a lot. Perhaps it is because the zombie beasts covet the large amounts of meat available in groups, right
This should be…
Phew!
About an hour later, they stepped into a puddle hidden in the grass, and their walking suddenly became one step deeper and one step shallower.
As soon as the speed slowed down, Andrea looked back nervously. At this time, the grass had already covered her calves. Most of the zombie beasts chasing behind her were small animals, and few of them were higher than the grass underground.
This creates a terrible situation where their field of vision is restricted!
It was night now, and the light from the red moon was only enough to make it possible to see the outline and general shape. With the grass blocking the situation, Andrea could only see the green grass that was constantly shaking, and could not accurately judge the zombies. What distance did the beast chase
Xiang En, who looked back a few times, also discovered the problem and reminded Marki to walk as fast as possible.
Ma Ji also worked very hard to explore the path. The steel fork in his hand was constantly inserted into the ground and pulled out, fearing that it would suddenly miss the mark.
With intense urging, they managed to cross the puddle and climb up the short slope before being overtaken.
Just when everyone was relieved and thought they would be fine after crossing the puddle, a boy next to Marky was suddenly attacked by a black shadow!
Uh-huh!
Under the bright red night, Ma Ji watched helplessly as the black figure beside him took his little brother away at a speed that was difficult for him to see clearly.
The captured man couldn't help being frightened and let out a series of screams, "Help...help! Boss Ma Ji! Boss Xiang En! Save me! Ah!"
He only had time to ask for help from his two bosses, but he couldn't wait for them to save him.
Xiang En stopped involuntarily. He saw a lump of twist. No, he looked carefully and found that it was a python. The body of the snake was slightly larger than Andrea's waist!
The entangled snake body continued to tighten, the sound of bones breaking and rubbing was horrifying, and his screams disappeared...
"Go! Keep walking!"
Suddenly another person was lost, and Xiang En's heart became heavier again.
The four of them turned back three times with each step, looking at the still entangled snake body, and once again felt a sense of sadness that the rabbit was dead and the fox was dead.
After running for several hundred meters, Andrea looked back and was surprised to find that there were more than 90% fewer zombie beasts behind her!
She told Xiang En about this discovery, and Xiang En took some time to think and guessed that the python just now might be a living creature, not a zombie!
I have frostbite on my feet, it itches so much that my scalp is numb, and this itch only occurs between 8pm and 12pm, it’s numb!
