A Journey of American Comics Starting from the Zombie Universe

Chapter 603 Dark Shadow
Deep in the cave, Bai Ye led the soldiers to continue forward. They passed through narrow gaps, climbed over towering rock walls, and finally came to an abandoned delicatessen. This delicatessen seemed to be forgotten by time, standing alone in the darkness, emitting an indescribable stench.

The soldiers stopped and looked at the strange building with caution. Bai Ye frowned, and he felt that there was a huge danger hidden in this delicatessen. He signaled the soldiers not to act rashly, and then slowly approached the entrance of the delicatessen.

The moment they stepped into the delicatessen, a stronger stench hit them in the face, making it almost impossible to breathe. The soldiers couldn't help but cover their mouths and noses, but their eyes were fixed on the front. The store was in a mess, with all kinds of rotten food scattered on the ground, emitting a disgusting smell.

Bai Ye took a deep breath and tried to keep himself calm. He carefully observed the surrounding environment, looking for possible dangers. At this moment, he suddenly felt a strong vibration coming from the ground. Then, dozens of giant monsters rushed out from the darkness. They were huge, covered with thick bacon, and exuded a creepy stench.

"It's a giant radioactive bacon monster!" Bai Ye shouted, "Everyone be careful!"

The soldiers immediately became nervous upon hearing this, and they all took fighting positions, ready to fight these monsters. However, these monsters were extremely ferocious, waving their sharp claws and launching a fierce attack on the soldiers.

"Quick! Spread out!" Bai Ye commanded loudly, "Don't let them attack at the same time!"

The soldiers immediately dispersed upon hearing this, using the terrain and obstacles to avoid the monsters' attacks. At the same time, they also launched a counterattack against the monsters. However, the monsters had extremely strong defenses, and the soldiers' attacks could only cause them pain, but could not cause fatal damage.

"These monsters are too defensive!" a soldier shouted, "What should we do?"

"Don't panic!" Bai Ye replied calmly, "Their weakness must be under the bacon. We must find a way to attack their bodies!"

The soldiers nodded their heads to show that they understood. They began to look for opportunities to attack the monsters. However, these monsters were extremely cunning. They kept moving their bodies, making it difficult for the soldiers to find opportunities to attack.

At this moment, Bai Ye suddenly saw that one of the monsters had slowed down a little. He immediately realized that this was an opportunity, so he rushed towards the monster. He swung the long knife in his hand and chopped at the monster's bacon layer.

"Crack!" With a crisp sound, Bai Ye's long knife actually cut through the monster's bacon layer, revealing a ferocious monster inside. The monster was small in stature, but its eyes were extremely fierce. It let out a sharp roar and launched a fierce attack on Bai Ye.

Bai Ye dodged the monster's attack with a flash. He took the opportunity to launch a fierce attack on the monster. However, the monster was extremely agile. It kept dodging Bai Ye's attacks and launched a counterattack against him.

Bai Ye and the monster started a fierce battle. They fought back and forth, and it was hard to tell who was the winner. Seeing this, the soldiers surrounded him and attacked the monster, hoping to help Bai Ye defeat it.

With everyone's efforts, the monster was finally defeated. It let out a shrill roar and fell to the ground. The soldiers cheered, knowing that they had successfully defeated the monster.

However, they did not have much time to celebrate because the remaining monsters continued to attack them. Bai Ye knew that these monsters would not give up easily, so he had to lead the soldiers to continue fighting.

"Everyone, don't let your guard down!" Bai Ye shouted, "These monsters are very cunning and we must be careful!"

The soldiers nodded their heads to show that they understood. They took up their fighting stances again and prepared to face the next challenge.

In the following battle, the soldiers showed amazing courage and perseverance. They fought fiercely with the monsters and constantly attacked the monsters. However, these monsters were extremely tenacious and constantly launched counterattacks against the soldiers in an attempt to break through their defenses.

The battle was extremely difficult and both sides were in a stalemate. However, Bai Ye did not give up and continued to command the soldiers to fight. He kept looking for opportunities to launch fatal attacks on the monsters.

In the battles, Bai Ye gradually figured out the attack patterns of these monsters. He found that these monsters would have a short pause when attacking, and this pause was when they were most vulnerable. So Bai Ye commanded the soldiers to take advantage of this opportunity to launch a fierce attack on the monsters.

With everyone's efforts, the monsters finally began to retreat. They fell to the ground one by one, roaring miserably. Seeing this, the soldiers cheered one after another, knowing that they had successfully defeated these monsters.

However, Bai Ye did not let down his guard. He knew that these monsters were only part of the dangers in this delicatessen. They still needed to move forward and explore this mysterious building to find more clues and treasures.

So Bai Ye led the soldiers to move forward. They carefully passed through various areas of the delicatessen looking for possible clues and dangers. In the process, they encountered various challenges and difficulties, but they always maintained a firm belief and the power of unity to overcome these difficulties together.

In the abandoned delicatessen deep in the cave, as the monsters were defeated one by one, the stench and smell of blood in the air intertwined to form a suffocating atmosphere. Although Bai Ye and the soldiers had achieved a temporary victory, their nerves were still tense because they knew that this was only the beginning of the challenge.

The interior layout of the delicatessen was intricate, and the dim lights barely illuminated the surroundings. Bai Ye held a torch and led the soldiers deeper into the delicatessen. They stepped on the rotten food residues, and each step was accompanied by a "squeaking" sound, as if warning of the impending danger.

"Everyone be careful, these monsters may just be the guards here." Bai Ye's voice was low and firm, "We must be more vigilant and look for the entrance to the next area."

The soldiers nodded one after another, holding their weapons tightly, ready to respond to any emergency. Suddenly, a low roar came from behind them, and then several undetected monsters rushed out from the darkness and attacked them.

The soldiers immediately entered combat mode, brandishing their weapons and engaging in a fierce battle with the monsters. Bai Ye quickly moved to a high ground, using torches to illuminate the battlefield and provide guidance for the soldiers.

"Be careful to avoid their claws!" Bai Ye shouted loudly, "Their claws are extremely sharp. If you get hit, the consequences will be disastrous!"

The soldiers dodged upon hearing this, using the terrain and obstacles to avoid the monsters' attacks. At the same time, they also launched a counterattack against the monsters. However, these monsters seemed to be more ferocious than before, and they kept charging at the soldiers, trying to break through their defenses.

In the fierce battle, a soldier was accidentally scratched by the monster, and blood instantly stained his armor red. He fell to the ground in pain, groaning faintly. Bai Ye rushed forward immediately, protecting the soldier behind him, and slashed at the monster with his sword. "Don't give up!" Bai Ye encouraged loudly, "As long as we are united, nothing can stop us from moving forward!"

Inspired by Bai Ye, the soldiers regained their spirits. They fought the monsters more fiercely, and each attack was full of strength and determination. After a hard battle, they finally defeated all the remaining monsters.

However, the battlefield was in a mess after the battle. The soldiers sat on the ground exhausted and panting, their armors were covered with blood and mud. Bai Ye was also sweating profusely, but he remained calm and alert.

"Let's take a break." Bai Ye said as he took out some food and water from his backpack and handed them to the soldiers. "We'll continue moving forward after we recover our strength."

The soldiers took the food and water and began to eat and rehydrate. While eating, they discussed the battle just now and the next plan. Bai Ye sat quietly aside and thought about the next action plan.

"These monsters seem to have some kind of organization." A soldier suddenly said, "They are not attacking us randomly, but charging towards us in an organized manner."

"You're right." Bai Ye nodded. "This means that there may be a bigger secret hidden behind this delicatessen. We must continue to explore deeper to find clues."

The soldiers all agreed after hearing this. They knew that only by continuing to move forward could they uncover the secret of this delicatessen and find the real treasure. So after a short rest, they set out on their journey again.

In the following exploration, the soldiers encountered more challenges and dangers. They passed through narrow passages, climbed over steep rock walls, and even faced some traps. But no matter how big the difficulties were, they overcame them one by one with firm belief and the power of unity.

Finally, they came to the depths of the delicatessen. The light here was even dimmer, but the air was filled with a mysterious atmosphere. Bai Ye held a torch and carefully observed the surrounding environment. He found that there were many strange symbols and patterns here, which seemed to hide some secrets.

"Everyone be careful." Bai Ye whispered, "There may be greater danger hidden here."

The soldiers became nervous upon hearing this, holding their weapons tightly and preparing to deal with possible dangers. At this moment, a strange laugh suddenly came from the darkness, making people shudder.

"Welcome to my territory." A deep and strange voice said, "You will face the most severe test here."

Bai Ye and the soldiers looked at each other in bewilderment. They knew they had come to the real challenge. But they did not retreat, but walked forward more firmly to meet the next challenge...

As the strange voice fell, the air around them seemed to freeze. The soldiers could feel a strong sense of oppression coming from all directions, making them nervous involuntarily. Bai Ye held the torch tightly and watched the surroundings vigilantly.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, causing the flames of the torches to sway. Then, several dark shadows rushed out from the darkness and attacked the soldiers. These dark shadows were agile and fast, and they rushed in front of the soldiers in the blink of an eye.

"It's a new monster!" a soldier shouted.

The soldiers immediately entered combat mode, brandishing their weapons and launching a counterattack against the shadows. However, the shadows were extremely agile, dodging the soldiers' attacks while constantly charging at them.

Bai Ye rushed to the front of the soldiers and swung the sword in his hand to engage in a fierce battle with the shadow. Every time the sword and the shadow collided, a crisp metal collision sound echoed in the cave.

"The attack power of these black shadows is very strong!" Bai Ye shouted loudly, "We must deal with them carefully!"

The soldiers strengthened their defenses after hearing this. Deep in the dim delicatessen, following Bai Ye's order, the soldiers strengthened their defenses. They held their weapons tightly, with a determined look in their eyes, ready to meet the fierce attack of these mysterious shadows.

These shadows were erratic, like ghosts. Their attack methods were also very strange. Sometimes they turned into entities and launched a fierce charge, and sometimes they turned into invisible undercurrents and shuttled around the soldiers. Every attack was hard to defend against, and the soldiers had to concentrate on dealing with it.

As a leader, Bai Ye not only had to protect the safety of the soldiers, but also had to find a way to defeat these shadows. He carefully observed the attack patterns of the shadows, trying to find their weaknesses. However, these shadows did not seem to have a fixed attack pattern, and their actions were completely arbitrary, which made Bai Ye feel a little tricky.

In the fierce battle, the soldiers constantly adjusted their tactics. Sometimes they dispersed to avoid being attacked by the shadows; sometimes they gathered in formation to suppress the shadows with intensive firepower. However, these tactics did not seem to have much effect. The shadows still flexibly shuttled between the soldiers to launch attacks.

"These shadows seem to be able to absorb our attack energy!" A soldier discovered this pattern during the battle, "Our attacks don't seem to have much effect on them!"

Bai Ye was shocked when he heard this. He immediately realized that this might be the key to defeating the black shadow. He shouted loudly: "Everyone, don't use energy attacks, try physical attacks instead!"

The soldiers changed their attack methods upon hearing this. They brandished their weapons and launched a fierce physical attack on the black shadows. As expected, the black shadows began to show signs of fatigue under the physical attack, and their attacks became less fierce.

"It worked!" Bai Ye was delighted and continued to command the soldiers to launch physical attacks. Soon, the shadows fell to the ground and turned into black smoke that dissipated in the air.

However, just when the soldiers thought the battle was over, a more bizarre laugh came from the darkness again. The deep and strange voice said, "I didn't expect you to be so smart, but this is just a little test from me."

As the voice fell, the darkness around them suddenly became thicker. A powerful energy surged out of the darkness and attacked the soldiers. This energy was so powerful that it knocked the soldiers to the ground in an instant.
