blood plague

Chapter 172 New Mutations
After working for half an hour, Nicholas and Thomas were ready, and Nicholas gave Iger a thumbs up.

"Let's go, start working." Iger said to Joanna, he carefully slid down from the roof of the car, so as not to knock Joanna down with a big movement.

Later, Joanna also slid down. After she rolled over the car, she got into the cab and started the car.

Iger stood in the bed of the pickup truck, picked up the MP5 and spare magazines, and got ready to shoot.

Iger looked at the group of infected people in front of him and found something was wrong.

These people sat here to eat lunch, and they were delayed for almost half an hour.It stands to reason that the infected should have spotted them long ago and moved towards them.But now Iger saw that the infected person seemed to be standing still.

"Joanna, something is wrong!" Iger shouted at Joanna, "Turn around early, don't get too close."

"Okay." Joanna knew that there must be his reason for Iger's reminder, so this time she didn't rush to the heels of the infected person before turning around like last time, but turned the rear of the car to the infected person first, and then slowly backed up Leaned over.

To be honest, the closer you get to such a large group of infected people, the clearer you can see it, the stronger the sense of oppression, and it can even trigger people's intensive phobia.

Iger, who was standing in the carriage, gave a thumbs up in front of his eyes.

That day, Iger found Fran and asked him how to estimate the distance.Fran then taught Iger three practical methods.

The method with the highest relative accuracy is the scope measurement algorithm.

Aim at the human body with a fixed magnification scope, and then use the size of the human body on the scale to calculate the distance.

Iger can't implement this method for the time being. Due to the problem of the guide rail, his MP5 cannot be equipped with a scope. It is impossible to disassemble a scope and put it in his pocket for distance measurement.

Fran then described two methods of distance measurement with the naked eye.

One is to stick out your thumb, use two eyes to look at each other, and then calculate the distance.

Iger tried the method Fran said, and Iger closed his eyes alternately. He found that the calculated numbers were not accurate at all.

Forget it, I can't learn.

Iger is going to try Professor Fran's third least accurate method.

This method is so simple.

Simply put, if a person has vision 5.0, just memorize these quick formulas.

100 meters, with a face.

150 meters, with clothes buttons.

200 meters, no face.

250 meters, no palms.

300 meters, you can see different colors on the clothes.

400 meters, you can see the head.

500 meters, head and shoulders into one.

This method is simple. After Iger observed it carefully, combined with his previous experience, he quickly grasped the essentials.

"The current distance seems to be 250-300 meters." Iger said to himself, and then he picked up the MP5, and a green crosshair rose from the bottom of the field of vision.

"Wow, shit, it really works!"

For the first time, Iger discovered that the MP5 can appear solid at such a long distance, and he was still standing.

Of course, it may have something to do with the fact that the infected are standing still, but this is definitely an epic milestone for Iger.

Iger was holding the MP5 in a standing position, but because the crosshair was trembling with his breathing and heartbeat, although it was very weak, it caused some interference to the aiming head at such a long distance, so he chose to shoot in a prone position again. My heart stopped shaking.

"clatter."

Iger fired a shot.

The muzzle of the MP5 was raised very high. After a 9mm bullet was fired from the muzzle, it drew a graceful arc in the air, and finally precisely penetrated into the head of an infected person.

It may be that the distance was too far. The infected person shook after being shot, but did not fall down.

"clatter."

Iger made another shot, but the infected person still didn't fall after the second shot in the head.

"Did I make a mistake! Did I take a fake gun?!"

Just when Iger was about to shoot the third shot while complaining sharply, the infected person fell to the ground.

Compared with human beings, infected people have extremely strong survivability. In the face of fatal injuries that would kill humans instantly, they can still hold on for a while longer.

If humans have 100 health, the infected have at least 300 health.

The lethality of MP5 is indeed lower.

Iger thinks he can apply for another M16 next time.

He doesn't want to use the shotgun anymore. After he injured his shoulder with the shotgun that time, Iger has a psychological shadow on weapons with high recoil.

After killing an infected person, the group of infected people remained silent.

Are there no screamers among the infected?
With doubts in his heart, Iger lay on the pickup truck and shot the infected continuously.

When a group of infected is in a low power state, they will stay in a low power state as long as they are not disturbed.Therefore, when killing headshots one by one with a gun, the infected person can be used as a stake from the first to the last.

This is Iger's experience when hunting the infected with the AR-7.But later, when there was a screamer, the screamer could immediately command the infected to move towards the attacker after being attacked, so Iger basically never encountered the stake monster again.

With such a large group of infected people right now, Iger emptied a magazine in a row, and the group of infected people remained silent.

Iger discovered another strange thing that is currently unexplainable.

With such a large group of infected people, how could there be no screamers.

Iger didn't get caught up in thinking, he actually belongs to the action group, and his usual habit is to hit a few shots first.

Iger removed the empty magazine and quickly replaced it with a spare magazine.

While the pickup truck was backing up, Iger quickly emptied all three magazines, and now the pickup truck was only a hundred meters away from the group of infected people.

After being continuously attacked and dozens of infected people fell down, those infected people who were like wooden stakes gradually woke up amidst the continuous gunshots. They turned around and walked towards the pickup truck staggeringly.

There was no loader on the pickup truck. After Iger ran out of MP5 bullets, he had to be patient and reload manually. It can be said that it takes 30 seconds to fire a gun and 3 minutes to reload. Manual reloading is much slower than shooting a gun.

"squeak."

The pickup truck stopped, and it was less than 50 meters away from the group of infected people. Joanna stretched out her head and shouted at Iger, "Refund?"

Joanna's cry was not loud, but it was enough for the infected to hear.The infected people were stimulated and started to run.

There was no screaming.

Iger dropped the half-filled MP5 magazine, picked up the shotgun from the floor, and prepared to use a sledgehammer to listen to it.

"boom!"

The shotgun fires a random shot at an infected individual.

It was like stabbing a hornet's nest, not only the infected in the front row, but the entire group of infected were alarmed.However, after losing the speed bonus of screaming this time, there is no sense of tension at all.

After a while, Iger emptied the shotgun bullet in his hand. After throwing the emptied shotgun on the ground, he got up and picked up the half-filled MP5 magazine, while staring at the crowd of infected people flocking to the pickup truck. One side is filling in blindly.

Suddenly, Iger saw something strange that seemed to be hidden among the infected people.

The infected people were crowded together just now, but now after these infected people started running, they exposed the strange thing.

Iger dropped the magazine and picked up the binoculars. There were crowds of people in the binoculars, but he still couldn't see what it was.

"Joanna, drive more steadily." Iger shouted at Joanna.

Afterwards, Iger climbed onto the roof of the pickup truck. He stood on the roof of the pickup truck and looked into the distance with a telescope.

After the position was a little higher, Iger saw a strange thing with most of it covered and only a top exposed.

This thing is neither big nor small. It is taller than ordinary infected people and has the width of 2 infected people. It looks like a sarcoma.

This sarcoma is quite eye-catching in the group of infected people because it cannot move.

"What is this?!" Iger couldn't help sighing.

Of course, this is not a problem at all, it is obviously a new mutation.

Iger stood on the pickup truck and wanted to see what it was, so he manually adjusted the magnification of the telescope.As a result, he was dizzy for a while, and he almost fell off the roof of the car.

When using a high-magnification telescope, it must be stable. Any slight shake will make the field of view jump wildly.Iger was stunned.

Iger stabilized his figure and suppressed the nausea in his heart, he gave up observing, and jumped into the carriage.

Regardless of what that thing is, the current task is to attract monsters and set off firecrackers.
