Night of the Apocalypse

Chapter 177: Turtle in a jar

Views:

Donglin occupied area.

Shen Qiu took Chen Ye and ran all the way to the periphery.

Although the weather was very gloomy at this time, the rain had stopped.

"Brother, is it okay for us to run like this? Will there be any problems?"

Chen Ye felt a little unsure. Isn't this just running wildly on the street in broad daylight? His target would be very conspicuous.

"There's no time. I'll take care of the monster if I run into it."

Shen Qiu responded with a tense expression. He didn't know why, but he felt inexplicably flustered and uneasy.

Boom!

In the gloomy sky, chain lightning flashed like tree branches, instantly illuminating the entire occupied area.

At this moment, Shen Qiu inadvertently noticed that there seemed to be something reflecting light on the roof of the building on the right side in front of him.

Suddenly he felt a chill in his heart.

“Get out of the way!”

Shen Qiu pushed Chen Ye away.

Bang

Accompanied by a whistling sound, a 12.6MM caliber sniper bullet instantly hit Shen Qiu's chest.

The huge impact caused Shen Qiu to fall backwards and heavily to the ground.

“Brother!”

Chen Ye saw this scene with an expression of disbelief on his face. He didn't expect that there would be a sniper attacking them, and Shen Qiu actually pushed him away at the critical moment.

No one had ever treated him like this before, and people usually only blamed him.

Shen Qiu felt a pain in his chest and he even suspected that his ribs were broken, but he still got up immediately.

Chen Ye was also shocked when he saw Shen Qiu getting up. He was okay

Shen Qiu shouted at Chen Ye.

"What are you standing there for? Find cover!"

Chen Ye reacted and immediately rushed towards a bus that was parked diagonally in the middle of the road.

"Boss this way!"

Shen Qiu also rushed over.

The two hid directly behind the bus.

"Brother, are you really okay? The one who shot you just now was a heavy sniper, right?"

Chen Ye still asked a little worriedly.

Shen Qiu lowered his head and used his fingers to pick out the bullet that was embedded in his clothes. Then he touched the place where he was hit and found that his inner armor was dented.

He was also extremely grateful that he had changed this equipment. Moreover, the items on the APP did not have false advertising, saying that they could resist heavy sniper attacks, otherwise he would die without knowing how he died.

"It's okay, but what the hell, why would a sniper attack us?"

"Yeah, this is weird. What's going on, Boss?"

Chen Ye also echoed.

"Why do you ask me? Go investigate."

Shen Qiu said to Chen Ye with a dark face.

"Oh, all right."

Chen Ye reacted immediately, quickly opened his backpack, took out a small box, and released a fly.

Looking at Chen Ye's reaction speed, Shen Qiu could probably tell that this kid was probably an ordinary person before he awakened.

Awareness in all aspects is still a little poor, but it is also normal.

At this time, Chen Ye controlled the fly and flew out with a buzz.

Shen Qiu quietly stood up and secretly looked out through the bus window.

To be honest, up to now, Shen Qiu still hasn't figured out who launched the sneak attack.

The defeated cult? A member of KPI? Or someone with ulterior motives

However, Shen Qiu believed that the result would be known soon, and he reminded Chen Ye.

"The other party should be on top of the 7-story unfinished building 200 meters ahead on the right."

"Brother, you are so awesome. You can even figure this out."

"Okay, stop bragging, it was just a coincidence. Pay attention and get closer to see who attacked us before they run away."

Shen Qiu's words were not nonsense. If lightning had not happened to flash in the sky just now, it might not have been noticed.

"Okay, right away."

Chen Ye said quickly.

Only a minute or two later, Chen Ye said in surprise.

“OMG!”

"Speak human language! What did you see?"

Shen Qiu was also a little anxious.

"I am not mistaken. The one who attacked us with a sniper is a monster with a different body. He is still aiming at us."

Chen Ye said in disbelief.

When Shen Qiu heard Chen Ye's words, his heart was in turmoil. He tried his best to ask calmly.

"Are you sure you're seeing this correctly?"

"There's absolutely no way I'm wrong. I can still tell the difference between an alien and a human."

Chen Ye said with a solemn vow.

"Describe to me the guy's build and features."

"It's about two meters tall, and except for the tail, its overall body structure is almost exactly the same as ours. But its skin is purple hardened skin, and its muscles are very developed!"

"Is there a symbol on the chest?"

"No, I looked for it specially."

"Okay, I understand."

Shen Qiu just opened his mouth and replied.

Bang!

A bullet pierced through the bus and passed by them.

"Brother, what should we do? That guy has started to attack."

Chen Ye swallowed and asked in fear.

"What can I do? I can't hit it with my gunfire, so I can only charge. Control your fly well. After I charge out, if it wants to shoot again, shoot at its eyes!"

Shen Qiu thought for a while and then gave instructions.

"good!"

Chen Ye nodded quickly.

Bang!

At this time, another bullet hit and penetrated the bus.

Shen Qiu decisively rushed to the right.

As long as you rush to the eaves of the shops along the street on the right, it will be difficult for the enemy to shoot you.

However, this process is very dangerous, so he needs some assistance.

Bang!

As expected, when Shen Qiu rushed halfway, gunshots rang out again.

Shen Qiu subconsciously bent his body and sprinted, but this time the shot had a large deviation and hit the ground four or five meters away.

There was no surprise, it should be that Chen Ye's interference was successful.

Shen Qiu took advantage of this gap and successfully rushed to the eaves of a shop on the street. He slowly approached through the blind spot.

We were getting close to that building.

At this time, Chen Ye, who was hiding behind the bus, shouted regardless of the danger.

"Brother, be careful! That guy has dropped his gun and jumped down!"

Shen Qiu was startled and saw a figure jumping down from the building in front and landing directly on a car.

Bang!

The entire roof of the car was dented.

The alien monster that jumped down suddenly had its claws become extremely sharp and slender, and they were burning with flames.

It opened its mouth, let out a roar, and rushed towards Shen Qiu at an extremely fast speed.

Shen Qiu's eyebrows jumped. Can he also use fire

But he didn't have time to think about it, and raised the Han Ye in his hand to block the attacking claws.

Click!

The huge force acting on Shen Qiu's arm made his bones creak.

Shen Qiu gritted his teeth, his whole body sliding backwards, his strength being crushed.

The alien creature in front of him opened its mouth and raging flames began to build up.

Shen Qiu's eyebrows jumped, and he raised his left hand to accumulate lightning. A bolt of lightning struck the alien body, sending it straight out.

Bang!

The alien creature slammed hard into the flattened car behind it, and its entire body was charred.

Shen Qiu then took out his bloody fangs and fired two shots at the alien creature.

Bang Bang

As a result, the alien body rolled over very nimbly to avoid the two shots. At the same time, it opened its mouth and a fireball blasted towards Shen Qiu.

Shen Qiu jumped to the side, landed and rolled to avoid it.

boom!

The fireball hit the ground and exploded.

The alien took the opportunity to rush towards Shen Qiu again, raising its hand and trying to grab Shen Qiu with its claws.

Shen Qiu got up at this time, hunched over and rushed forward, stabbing forward with Han Ye in his hand.

Click!

It stabbed straight into the alien's body, and at the same time, flashing lightning was injected into its body.

“Ah~”

With a howl of pain, the alien fell to the ground.

Shen Qiu then pulled out Han Ye and struck again, cutting off his head.

He looked at the dead alien and let out a long sigh. It was extremely difficult to deal with. What was even more helpless was that this alien could not provide anything valuable.

"Brother, is it done?"

At this time Chen Ye hurried over.

"Let's go!"

Shen Qiu said to Chen Ye.

"Wait, boss, there's a sniper rifle up there."

"Why do we need that thing? It's so heavy. And we can buy it outside. The most urgent thing now is to rush out."

"Yes, yes, that's what Big Brother said."

Chen Ye nodded hurriedly in response.

The two continued running forward, passing by buildings.

Soon the two of them ran to Kangle Street. When Shen Qiu saw the street sign, he spoke.

"Keep trying, we're almost outside."

"good!"

When Chen Ye heard Shen Qiu say this, he also showed an expression of great joy.

At this moment, four alien creatures suddenly appeared in front of them. Shen Qiu raised the Blood Fang in his hand and fired continuously without saying a word!

Bang Bang

With just a few shots, he killed the four alien creatures cleanly.

However, Shen Qiu did not feel relieved. Instead, he frowned and said.

"What's going on? This place has clearly been cleaned up, why are there still so many aliens?"

However, at this moment, groups of black monsters suddenly emerged from the streets and buildings ahead, their numbers so large that they were creepy.

"Quick! Run back!"

Shen Qiu suddenly turned around and ran back.

"Oh my god! Big brother, wait for me."

Chen Ye shouted in fear and chased after Shen Qiu.

If they were a few aliens, Shen Qiu would not be afraid at all. At worst he could kill them!

Even a dozen of them can give it a try.

But with so many of them, he was not arrogant enough to go up and die, and the number seemed to be increasing.

However, Shen Qiu and Chen Ye did not notice that the black masses of alien monsters behind them did not rush up all at once, but instead moved forward in an orderly manner, like a shrinking circle.

Occupied Area·Shelter No. 1.

A giant seven-story library is located here, but of course this library is just a cover.

Under the library, there is a very large emergency air-raid shelter.

Li Mingde, holding an automatic rifle, personally led the troops over.

“Hurry up!”

"yes!"

Many soldiers replied solemnly.

Looking closely, you can see that the troops led by Li Mingde encountered considerable resistance and many soldiers were injured.

They rushed into the library and saw blood all over the floor.

It didn't take long before they entered Shelter No. 1 through the emergency passage.

However, the huge air-raid shelter was empty.

"What's going on?"

The soldiers present were stunned.

Li Mingde looked at this scene and spoke angrily.

“Where are the people?”

At this moment, a pool of water on the ground suddenly shook.

Li Mingde and others noticed something was wrong and turned their guns around.

At this time, a middle-aged man in a second lieutenant's uniform climbed out of the water and spoke.

"It's me, sir."

"Wu Huai, what's going on?"

Li Mingde asked quickly.

"Everyone went to the central shelter No. 3."

"Why go to Shelter No. 3? Running to the center, isn't that just causing more trouble?"

"It's like this. Shelter Point 1 has been hit by a large number of alien bodies. We can't hold on any longer. And the food here is running out. So Officer Xiang is leading a large number of people to move to Shelter Point 3 in the center."

Wu Huai quickly explained.

"When did it happen?"

"It wasn't long ago, just over three hours ago. If nothing unexpected happens, they should be almost at Shelter No. 3."

"Wait, you said this place was hit by a large number of alien bodies, but the problem is that when I came in, I didn't see many alien bodies?"

Li Mingde asked with a frown.

"I'm not sure about this! I also find it strange that after most people moved away, there were no attacks here."

Wu Huai immediately explained.

"Then why did you stay?"

"It's like this. Hundreds of people were injured and couldn't be moved. A team of us stayed behind to protect them. They are hiding in a hidden emergency room over there."

"I see."

Li Mingde replied in a deep voice.

At this moment, the micro combat command device on Li Mingde's waist kept vibrating.

He picked it up and took a look, and messages popped up one after another.

"People in Shelter No. 2 are being transferred to Shelter No. 3."

"People in Shelter No. 4 are being transferred to Shelter No. 3."

"People in Shelter No. 5 are being transferred to Shelter No. 3."

"Why are they all heading to Shelter No. 3? Commander Li Mingde, something seems to be wrong."

The officer next to him saw the message pop up and said with some concern.

Li Mingde's expression became increasingly gloomy. Of course, he also realized that something was wrong, and he immediately spoke back.

"Of course I know something is wrong. How long until the bombing?"

"There are still 8 hours and 47 minutes left. Sir, what should we do now?"

The sergeant at the side reported accurately.

At this time, the portable communication device clipped to Li Mingde's collar rang.

"Report, this is the Lone Wolf Squad. A large number of alien monsters have failed to attack the outer defense line and are beginning to shrink inwards to form an encirclement. Requesting instructions!"

"I understand. Don't conflict with those aliens. Retreat and keep a close eye on them."

Li Mingde clicked on the communication device and said.

"yes!"

After a response came from the communication device, everything became quiet again.

"Captain Li, why do I feel like we are being driven towards the central area?"

The non-commissioned officers on the side spoke up one after another.

"Alright, don't say anything, gather everyone and head to Shelter No. 3 immediately."

Li Mingde interrupted them and gave the order directly. Of course, he smelled the smell of conspiracy, but there was no way out now, he could only take one step at a time.

"yes!"

Everyone responded.

In an inconspicuous street-side hardware store near the subway station.

Chen Ye gasped and asked Shen Qiu.

"The boss is not right. He changed several directions. No matter which direction he breaks through, he will encounter a large number of alien bodies."

“We are surrounded.”

Although Shen Qiu didn't want to admit it, this was the situation.

"No way? We are surrounded? This shouldn't be possible!"

Chen Ye wanted to die.

"It must be that the attack on the defense line failed and shrank. We still haven't caught up."

Shen Qiu sighed.

"Brother, if that's the case, once these monsters shrink to the extreme, won't we all be wiped out? Commander Bai, don't you care?"

"She doesn't care. This situation is exactly what she wants. The monster keeps shrinking, and everyone has a sense of crisis. This is just the right time to force everyone to stop slacking off and work hard."

"Paddling?"

Chen Ye was stunned for a moment.

"That's right. When you were the KPI personnel, were they all so active in fighting and rescuing people? Many of them came in with the idea of brushing points and panning for gold, otherwise why would the situation not respond for such a long time."

Shen Qiu explained calmly.

"Brother, are we also considered as the ones who are paddling?"

Chen Ye asked with his eyes rolling.

"Ahem, what nonsense are you talking about? We are just trying our best to eliminate those difficult monsters."

Shen Qiu replied a little embarrassedly.

"Brother is right, what should we do now?"

"Escape to the central area, and then you can join up with the main force."

"But the countdown will be over if we turn around. What should we do if there is a real bombing?"

"With so many people, they probably won't vote."

Shen Qiu said this without any confidence.

"Yes, yes! They probably won't throw it, and Commander Li Mingde has flares."

Chen Ye quickly comforted himself.

"Let's go."

Shen Qiu took a short break and waved at Chen Ye.

"good!"

Chen Ye followed Shen Qiu and ran towards the central area.

It was unknown whether it was due to good luck or some other reason, but they barely encountered any alien monsters as they fled inside.

Even if they occasionally saw one or two alien monsters, as long as they were not too close, they would have no intention of attacking, but would run away.

It all seemed increasingly strange.

As the two were running, they saw three regular KPI fighters in uniform jumping out from the intersection on the left street ahead.

The middle-aged man leading the group cursed angrily as he ran.

"What the hell, why are there so many aliens behind us? Are those people in the military eating shit? How could they allow the enemy to counterattack?"

"What do we do now?"

"What can we do? Run to the central area. I just got the news that someone saw Bai Qi and the others rushing to the central area. It will be relatively safe if we join them."

"The person leading the group is Hu Xuan from the second team of the KPI department of Clear Sky City. He is said to be very skilled."

Chen Ye said to Shen Qiu.

"Um."

Shen Qiu nodded slightly.

At this time Hu Xuan also saw Shen Qiu and Chen Ye, but he did not stop to pay attention to them.

Instead, he led his teammates to run forward faster.

Shen Qiu and Chen Ye quickened their pace to catch up, as the more people there were, the safer it would be.

At least when you are being shot from behind, the probability of the other party choosing you will be smaller.

As they moved deeper into the Fall, they encountered more and more people.

There are regular KPI combatants, non-staff personnel, and also some Tianqing Legion combat teams.

Basically everyone encountered the same thing, which was being hit by a large number of alien monsters and being able to move only towards the occupied center area.

Donglin occupied area, Fuling Street.

Li Mingde led the elite troops and rushed towards Shelter No. 3 at a very fast speed. He kept urging.

“Hurry up!”

At this time, a hundred-meter-long bridge appeared in the distance, and under the bridge was a river seventy or eighty meters wide.

"Sir, after we cross the bridge ahead, we are not far from Shelter No. 3."

At this time, an adjutant said to Li Mingde.

"I see."

Li Mingde replied in a deep voice. He was now more and more worried about Shelter No. 3. All the survivors gathered there. If something went wrong there, it would be the end of them.

Soon Li Mingde led his troops onto the bridge.

At this time, on a tall building in the distance, two figures wearing hoods and cloaks were looking at the scene through binoculars.

"Tsk tsk, the show is about to begin."

"Hurry up, I can't wait."

"immediately."

Just as Li Mingde led the front troops across the bridge.

There are exploding bombs stuck on the bottom of the bridge, and the indicator lights on them turn from green to red!

Boom!

The chain explosions instantly destroyed the entire bridge.

“Ah~”

One by one the soldiers screamed and fell down.

Li Mingde turned his head and looked back, veins bulging on his forehead, and roared in anger.

"asshole!"

At this moment, alien bodies appeared on the roofs of the buildings around Li Mingde, and then they jumped down one after another and quickly surrounded Li Mingde and others.

The soldiers following Li Mingde raised their guns and fired, while speaking anxiously.

"Sir, this is bad. We are surrounded by aliens."

“Fight back!”

Li Mingde raised the gun in his hand and kept shooting at the alien that was rushing towards him.

One by one, the aliens were shot dead on the spot.

At this time, the troops separated by the broken bridge became anxious and shouted one after another.

"Hold on, sir, we're coming!"

As the separated soldiers spoke, some of them dispersed to the shore and fired from a long distance, providing fire support!

The rest of the people quickly went around from both sides.

At this time, more and more alien bodies appeared on Li Mingde's side, and the situation became more and more precarious.

“Damn it.”

Li Mingde pulled out a 70-centimeter-long alloy saber from his waist. His muscles expanded and he chopped down the aliens that pounced on him one after another.

He didn't expect to be ambushed by an alien.

However, it was fine for a normal ambush, but the fact that the bridge was blown up was a problem.

“Ah~”

A scream interrupted Li Mingde's thoughts.

He turned his head and saw a soldier next to him being knocked down by the alien, which was biting his arm directly.

Seeing this, Li Mingde rushed forward, chopped off the alien's head with one knife, and then pulled the fallen soldier up.

"Hold on."

"Thank you, sir. Be careful!"

the soldier shouted in horror.

Li Mingde turned his head and saw a three-meter-tall, highly humanoid alien with lightning flashing all over its body. It rushed over at an extremely fast speed and swept over with a claw.

He subconsciously raised his saber to block!

Bang!

A huge force acted on his body, and the whole person flew out like a kite with a broken string, and finally crashed into the ground.

Li Mingde spat out a mouthful of blood and was about to stand up.

The alien appeared in front of him and kicked him in the abdomen.

His eyeballs bulged out and he flew out again, hitting the wall of the house next to him heavily. He finally fell to the ground and lost consciousness.

At this time, the alien body walked to the unconscious Li Mingde, grabbed Li Mingde's feet and dragged him away.
