Showbiz Escape

Chapter 14 City of Zombies 14
The mutated zombies I met when I came out of the research room were like half-orcs catalyzed by drugs. Their nails were sharp, their limbs were covered with manes, and their blood-red skulls were half-lifted. Wriggling tentacles.

They kicked over the corpse truck and ran like beasts on all fours. Their target was extremely clear, and they were attacking where the three of them were.

Fortunately, the three of them took the lead first, and at least halfway through the journey, these zombies suddenly recovered; it is conceivable that if the later players go to this level again, they will encounter zombies wandering for food as soon as they go out. It is necessary to fight all the way to the escape exit to climb the rope ladder, and the difficulty will only be higher then.

- Run forward, don't look back.

Zhao Meitong naturally had to listen to Wen Zhuo's warning. After all, she was Jingui's client with little talent. In such a dangerous moment, saving her own life was considered a favor to everyone.

But before she turned around and ran for her life, her desire to survive and her meager sense of team responsibility still drove her to raise her submachine gun, screaming and shooting at the group of zombies.

"what--!!!"

...In fact, her shooting behavior provided strong evidence for the previous speculation.

Ordinary weapons and bullets are indeed not enough to destroy the zombies in the last level. A row of bullets swept across the head of the zombie in the front. Its head was as hard as a mecha shield, and it was unscathed. Several of the protruding tentacles were broken.

But those broken tentacles regenerated automatically after a few seconds.

Sure enough, she was right, she really had no choice but to run away without looking back.

Take out the speed of the [-]-meter sprint when I was in school.

While Zhao Meitong retreated first, Wen Zhuo raised the dark silver spear, faced the target and calmly pulled the trigger.

A blue flame spewed out from the muzzle of the gun in an instant, and then turned into a blue light and whizzed away. After touching the monster zombie, it exploded with a bang.

The flames quickly spread to the zombie's body, and the ferocious dancing tentacles on the top of the zombie's head visibly wilted, but they still didn't fall down, but continued to charge forward while burning all over their bodies.

Ye Lingchuan immediately fired another shot, and this time the zombie really struggled and turned into coke.

Practice has proved that every time a zombie is killed, at least two shots are required, provided that the marksmanship is accurate enough, and the magazine capacity of the gun is ten steel balls, which translates to killing a maximum of five zombies and immediately reloading.

Admittedly, this is a task that tests hand speed to the extreme.

Probably stimulated by the shooting from the opposite side, the movement speed of the zombie group increased instead of decreasing, and their tentacles even extended like vines, trying to entangle Wenzhuo and Ye Lingchuan in front while chasing.

It's a bit magical, it's really a bit magical, what kind of biochemical virus can breed such an exaggerated zombie monster?

Ye Lingchuan's expression darkened suddenly, and he turned his head to urge Wen Zhuo: "You retreat too, quickly, go to the rope ladder and wait for me!"

In a dog-blood drama, according to Yiwen's current character set for herself, she should shed tears and insist on fighting side by side with him, so as to maximize the friendship of life and death, and facilitate the development of the subsequent plot.

It's a pity that she has a special status. Compared with fighting side by side with a handsome guy who meets the aesthetics, she still cares more about the safety of her customers-whoever asks a customer to pay 200 million is real money, but handsome guys are not necessarily so. When we return to reality When the world meets again, it is estimated that it will depend on her unilateral efforts, which may not be fruitful.

How to settle the account, she knew very well.

So she nodded, and said sadly: "Okay, be careful, Brother Chuan!"

Then resolutely retracted the gun and turned around, rushing towards the direction of the rope ladder like an arrow off the string.

It didn't take long for her to catch up with Zhao Meitong who was in front of her. At first, Zhao Meitong thought it was a zombie coming to catch her, so she slipped and nearly fell down. Fortunately, she was able to hold the collar firmly with her quick eyesight.

Zhao Meitong was shocked: "You ran away? Aren't you going to help that actor surnamed Ye?"

"Is it important to help him, or to take you through the customs? Anyway, the serum antibody is with me."

"what?"

"Of course, if conditions permit, I will wait for him to be with me, but the client's interests must be taken as the benchmark."

Zhao Meitong was dragged forward by her, coughing from exhaustion while sighing sincerely.

"Thank you, you really have professional ethics. Are you bounty hunters so affordable?"

"Maybe, after all, the fate in the game is very short, there is nothing to let go."

"...Awesome, let me ask one more question, do you usually take other customers to clear the customs, and the tasks are always so perverted?"

"Not necessarily, it's all random." Wen Zhuo said, "Sometimes it's very simple and you can solve the level in minutes, sometimes it's more difficult than this round, and I occasionally miss it-I suggest you go back to the gym and remember to do more Good thing, if you accumulate character, you may be matched to the simple field next time."

"Who doesn't do good deeds anymore? I will give money when I meet beggars, and donate wherever there is a disaster. I also take in two stray cats and a stray dog ​​at home. My character is not bad, right?"

"Then there is no way." Wen Zhuo sighed flatly, "It means that the difficulty of the game is purely metaphysical, and you are just a non-chief."

"..."

While speaking, the rope ladder was close at hand. Just as Wen Zhuo supported Zhao Meitong to stand still, she turned her head and saw Ye Lingchuan racing with the zombies. She immediately fired several shots, temporarily clearing the obstacles around him.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ye Lingchuan also came to the rope ladder.

Wen Zhuo signaled Zhao Meitong to climb up, and she asked Ye Lingchuan: "Brother Chuan, are you not injured?"

"No." Ye Lingchuan lowered his head and was busy replacing the bullet steel balls. He thought for a while and emphasized, "It seems that you are right. Adversity does stimulate people's survival potential."

She smiled: "Then let's go."

……

After the three of them grabbed the rope ladder and climbed up one by one, the anger of the zombies obviously rose to a peak, and they began to bounce and pounce, trying to prevent them from leaving.

One jumped especially high, with long tentacles, and was only about half a meter away from wrapping around Zhao Meitong's neck. Wen Zhuo spotted it and fired two shots, blowing its head in the air.

"Fuck."

For the rest of her life after the catastrophe, Zhao Meitong didn't care whether she was tired or not, and immediately climbed faster by cursing.

Ye Lingchuan was thinking about Wen Zhuo being a girl, and worried that she would be exhausted, so he lifted her up again with all his strength.

He hung the rope ladder with one hand, and shot non-stop with the other hand, killing the zombies who wanted to get close one by one.

During this period, Wen Zhuo was not idle, she had to cooperate with him to supplement the shooting, and at the same time, she also had to pay attention to Zhao Meitong not to fall, which can be called seeing all directions and listening to all directions.

A zombie's tentacles flew past her side, tightly entangled the edge of the rope ladder, with such force that the whole rope ladder flew up, almost throwing Zhao Meitong at the top.

Zhao Meitong screamed with tears in her voice: "Ah, please, please spare me!"

Wen Zhuo raised his head with a gloomy expression: "It's not far, hurry up!"

"..."

Such a chaotic and critical scene is actually difficult to describe with accurate words. In other words, this should be a game with a very low clearance rate.

If it wasn't for the presence of Wen Zhuo and Ye Lingchuan, Zhao Meitong would have to confess here even if she had eight lives. Not only her, but all the players later in this game would have to go through this catastrophe.

Can only pray for good luck.

******
When he touched the metal buckle at the top of the rope ladder, the escape door above opened automatically, and Zhao Meitong, who was almost collapsed, was almost pushed up by Wen Zhuo.

Wen Zhuo turned his head to look for Ye Lingchuan, just as Ye Lingchuan was also looking at him, the two looked at each other, and without wasting any time, they each went out of the escape hatch.

Immediately, the escape door closed heavily, finally blocking all the chasing zombies out of sight.

They looked around. It turned out to be a remote alley on Jingtai Road, far away from the main entrance of the abandoned mental hospital.

The watches of the three vibrated at the same time, but the displayed content was slightly different: Zhao Meitong, as a player, displayed [Cleared successfully], while Wen Zhuo and Ye Lingchuan, as bounty hunters, displayed [Entrusted tasks can be submitted] .

Generally speaking, after the system sends a message, both the player and the bounty hunter have a 30-second cooldown before returning to the real world.

This can also be regarded as the farewell time for Wen Zhuo and Ye Lingchuan.

Wen Zhuo ignored Zhao Meitong who collapsed on the ground and beat his legs frantically, and put down his watch calmly and looked at Ye Lingchuan, showing a gentle and romantic smile.

She said: "Brother Chuan, although everyone's luck is not very good, I still hope that I will have the opportunity to meet you in City C in the future."
