Chapter 23

Everyone went in the direction pointed out by Team B’s Ji Yushi. Their destination was clear.

It seems that the friendship between Team B’s Song Qinglan and Ji Yushi had somehow progressed by leaps and bounds after they separated from the original Team 4 members at Runjun Building.

Duan Wen who walked at the front said, “Cap Song, come to think of it, it really is such a coincidence that both you and Advisor Ji in Team 3 and 4 separated from the group. It really must be fate.”

Li Chun who was at the back blew away several zombies and rubbed his shoulders that was sore from the recoil, “Yeah, I wouldn’t have noticed it if Brother Wen didn’t mention that. On both sides, Cap Song and Advisor Ji just happened to be together. It seems that even in a parallel timeline, it is very likely for the same choice to be made!”

No matter when it was, the people in this squad are always ready to talk nonsense.

Even after personally witnessing their own deaths and then fighting a giant spider, and even with unknown danger waiting for them ahead, they were able to quickly talk about other matters.

—–This may be Tianqiong seventh squad’s way to divert attention.

Only by adjusting their mood and adjusting their condition such that they are ready to deal with the next wave that may appear at any point in time can they be regarded as a squad that advances like a sharp arrow.

Ji Yushi felt that he understood this seventh squad a little better.

The surroundings were empty. Ever since that gate closed, they only encountered a couple of zombies along the way and there weren’t any other threats. They were able to solve it with just the use of a knife and didn’t need to use their guns.

Tang Le said, “Then what happened after the separation would also be very similar?”

“Probably not.” Tang Qi said, “Did you forget? When we found Cap Song and Advisor Ji, they were trapped in that small green kiosk.”

Zhou Mingxuan’s small eyes carried a hint of teasing, “Oh, that kind of green kiosk. I also saw a few on the way with Old Duan. The people in this area are very open-minded! Did Cap Song reach an enlightenment after being in there? Maybe after going back, we can retire and devote ourselves to this field to earn a living.”

Ji Yushi: “…….”

What was this? Openly ridiculing your boss or trying to matchmake?

Did this group of people forget that they have a deep homophobic setting?

Song Qinglan carried Shen Mian and didn’t relax for a single moment.

His pupils constricted, and he looked around at their surroundings vigilantly. At the same time, he spoke nonsense, “I did reach an enlightenment. It’s better than inflatable dolls. Once we’re back, I’ll give each of you one.”

Zhou Mingxuan chuckled.

And then he was kicked in the ass by Song Qinglan. It was just like the scene in the training room before they left.

Song Qinglan, “How about giving you the whole teams?!”

Zhou Mingxuan smiled and moved a few steps away, “That’s not necessary. It’s too much. My body can’t take it.”

“Cap Song.”

Tang Qi spoke up. He was seeking his opinion.

Everyone had reached the “first gate on the left” mentioned by Team B’s Ji Yushi. They saw a password panel on the side indicating that it was a secret passageway.

Behind them was an open field and before them was a gate leading to the unknown. In view of Team B’s Song Qinglan’s “filled with mutations of SSS-level difficulty”, everyone at this moment was a little reluctant to leave the safe zone.

Who knew what they would encounter inside there?

Song Qinglan looked through the glass on the gate and saw that it was another clean and tidy corridor. There wasn’t even a single zombie.

Song Qinglan made a hand gesture.

Everyone raised their guns and aimed them at the corridor on the other side of the gate.

Duan Wen took out a password cracking device and connected it to the panel. With high-speed processing, the password lock should’ve been cracked in ten seconds, but the panel still showed a red light.

This era was far more advanced than the era they came from and it couldn’t be cracked. Duan Wen got ready to try something else.

“Try fingerprint.”

Ji Yushi on the side suddenly said this and handed over a bloody hand.

Everyone looked over, “……..”

Duan Wen received the severed hand, “Advisor Ji, when did you——”

“When you were talking about inflatable dolls.” Ji Yushi spoke calmly, “There was a zombie nearby so I cut it off along the way.”

Everyone: “!!!”

So cruel!

If he didn’t see Ji Yushi quietly wipe his hand that held the severed hand on his black combat pants, Song Qinglan would’ve actually thought that Ji Yushi was really that calm.

In the end, for someone who liked cleanliness, just wiping it on his pants was enough to consider it as clean?

Song Qinglan found it a little funny.

“Beep.”

After a short beep, the door quietly opened.

Everyone kept silent.

Song Qinglan took out a small object from his pocket, knelt down, and threw it into the centre of the empty corridor.

That small object that emitted red light fell onto the ground and let out a small explosion which echoed down the deep corridor. The shockwave was enough to be felt by those giant spiders.

One second, two seconds. No spiders appeared.

There were also no other giant mutated insects.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Suddenly, noisy footsteps and growls came from the depths of the corridor. Countless zombies in white coats appeared to gush out from several underground floors at the same time like ants rushing out of their nests. An unimaginable number of them rushed towards them at an incredible speed.

There were no giant spiders, but they were met with the largest group of zombies they had ever seen!

“Fuck, fuck, fuck!”

“Kill them all!”

“Bang, bang, bang!”

With firepower at the maximum, they shot at the large wave of zombies.

They had made sufficient preparations this time. The bombs Tang Qi and Zhou Mingxuan had brought along had not been brought in vain. Just throwing a few of them got rid of a large number of the zombies.

With the additional fact that they were standing at the entrance to the corridor, no one thought about running when faced with this scene before them. Those zombies are just flesh and blood. This time, they had enough ability to beat them all down!

Blood and flesh flew everywhere. The walls, floors and ceilings were all splattered with blood.

Waves of zombies followed one after another, but within a few minutes, the corridor was piled up with zombies. This continued until no more of them appeared.

Having been besieged and chased by zombies the entire time, everyone felt some thrill after crushing this group of zombies with an overwhelming force.

“Awesome!”

“Damned awesome!”

“Go!”

Song Qinglan checked the remaining bullets for Shen Mian and took out a new glowing blue magazine from his pocket. 1024 rounds were used up in an instant.

The seven of them went into formation and advanced ahead.

Ji Yushi was in the centre. This was an excellent safety zone for a scout. He also changed his magazine.

The smell of something rotting filled the nose. Walking through the floor covered in blood and filth and stepping on the innocent mutated corpses that were once the same as them, they successfully reached the core of the building on the second floor.

This floor was the control room. There were countless densely packed control panels. From afar, it looked like there were thousands of them. Those mutant zombies just now were probably staff who had worked day and night here to maintain the operation of PU-31.

“The number isn’t right.” Song Qinglan frowned.

“What numbe——–”

Duan Wen’s words were interrupted by a loud shout.

“Ah!!”

Everyone instantly turned their heads and saw Li Chun being swept up by something and dragged into the vent. They were only able to see his shoes and dripping mucous before he completely disappeared inside!

“Chun’er!!”

Everyone shouted. There was rustling in the vent as well as the sound of gunfire. Li Chun who was being dragged away was still shooting!

After about thirty-five seconds, the sound of gunfire disappeared.

“What was that?!”

“I seemed to have seen something like a sucker!”

“That wasn’t another damned spider?!!”

“No! I don’t think it was!”

Song Qinglan immediately cut them off, “Go! Continue onwards!”

As soon as he finished saying this, another thing dropped from the air vent with a ‘clang’. That thing looked like a tongue, but it was covered with suckers. With a ‘whoosh’, it attacked the nearest Zhou Mingxuan!

Zhou Mingxuan immediately rolled away. Soon afterwards, the teammates shot at the ‘tongue’ which had suddenly appeared, only to hear a strange scream sound from above them. That ‘tongue’ suddenly retracted, leaving only a tip of it curled up on the ground like it was still alive.

There was vibration in the vent above them. That ‘tongue’ was probably running away.

Song Qinglan fired a few shots in the direction of the sound with a dark expression but soon lost trace of it.

Ji Yushi had already walked over. With one hand covering his painful abdominal wound and the other holding a dagger, he examined that object.

It was slimy and soft, and it very soon stopped moving.

Ji Yushi didn’t even blink. It was unknown what he was thinking.

“Go downstairs!”

Song Qinglan ordered again.

Everyone went together. This time they walked a lot more closely, ensuring that no one would fall behind.

The so-called mutations didn’t just apply to spiders. Li Chun’s disappearance cast a shadow of anger and panic in everyone’s hearts but there was no time for them to mourn for him.

Unfortunately, before they could reach the end of the corridor, a new wave of zombies appeared from around the corner!

“Grrr——”

Song Qinglan was right. The number of zombies that had been wiped out in the corridor just now really wasn’t right.

It was unknown if the commotion from the monster’s surprise attack gave away their location. From downstairs and all around them, several times more zombies than before arrived at the same time!

With a ‘slap’, Ji Yushi arm felt both cold and painful. That ‘tongue’ had once again appeared from above and managed to accurately wind itself around his arm!

Diamond Bird fell onto the ground as a result of the pain and Ji Yushi was pulled into the air!

“Advisor Ji!”

Amid the gunfire, someone shouted.

The teammates were too busy to even take care of themselves. Ji Yushi pulled out his dagger and fiercely stabbed it into that ‘tongue’ but this time, that monster seemed to have remembered the failed attempt last time and just screamed and tightened its ‘tongue’ even more. Ji Yushi could almost feel the bones in his arms cracking under the pressure.

He was about to be dragged into the vent!

At this moment, Ji Yushi heard a roar.

“Ji Yushi!”

He saw Song Qinglan turn his muzzle in his direction in spite of the numerous zombies in front of him and fire at the ceiling. Screams came from the vents and Ji Yushi suddenly found himself falling back onto the ground.

Ji Yushi landed on the ground and was still lying on his side, but he immediately shouted, “Don’t move!”

At this critical moment, his purple hand reached for his Diamond Bird and he fired a few times at the zombies behind Song Qinglan!

This kind of tacit understanding….

The zombies close at hand were shot in the head. Zombie blood and brain matter exploded onto Song Qinglan’s face.

“You’re welcome.” Song Qinglan said, “Thank you.”

Ji Yushi:”…….”

He actually said the lines for both of them himself.

Song Qinglan didn’t even move to wipe away the blood and just took out the only red magazine from his pocket with a calm expression.

The teammates continued to shoot at the wave of zombies. Ju Yushi was lifted from the ground by Zhou Mingxuan.

Thousands of zombies surrounded them. At a glance, it looked endless.

Song Qinglan held Shen Mian and changed the magazine at an incredible speed.

‘Click’. Ji Yushi seemed to hear the sound of it being loaded amidst the deafening gunfire and roars.

“Do you know what Shen Mian’s full name is?!”

Song Qinglan’s entire body emitted a thug-like air. At this moment, Ji Yushi saw strong killing intent and wildness on his face.

The teammates next to him seemed to have realised something and gradually gathered to his side.

Not waiting for Ji Yushi’s response, Song Qinglan answered, “Sleeping god.”

“Boom!!!”

An earth-shattering boom sounded. This level of the base shook violently and shockwaves transmitted to their ears, causing severe pain in everyone’s eardrums as well as a sharp ringing sound.

Above them, parts of the ceiling fell, crushing the zombies underneath.

“Cover your ears!!!”

The bombing continued. With three consecutive shots, everyone saw that the entire wave of zombies on the path leading downstairs had been completely crushed!!

At the rear of the building, a large hole had formed and there was a spacecar there. Some zombies changed targets and rushed towards the spacecar instead.

A familiar tall figure stood on top of the spacecar. Standing against the light, he held a pitch-black Shen Mian in his hand and the red light from the magazine gradually dimmed.

Other familiar figures also appeared on the spacecar one after another.

Duan Wen, Zhou Mingxuan, Tang Qi, Tang Le, Li Chun and Ji Yushi. Including the person that led them, it was a total of seven people.

That person was indeed Song Qinglan. His tone was very stern, “When I left, I thought it was an A-level mission, so I didn’t bring much equipment. This is originally very precious. Song Qinglan, you shouldn’t be using three of them here in this place.”

The two teams looked at each other from afar.

One was clean and tidy, while the other was in a rather pathetic state.

Song Qinglan was covered in blood. The Shen Mian in his hand that didn’t have the chance to be used was still glowing with red light.

Everyone behind him were almost at their limits and on the verge of falling into despair.

On the other end, the Song Qinglan standing on the spacecar looked at them with interest and then spoke up, “It is not the end yet. We from Team 6 are here to assist. You’re welcome.”

The light blurred their vision.

Dust scattered in all directions.

As soon as he finished speaking, the scene before them changed.

Those seven people who had appeared like gods as well as the spacecar suddenly disappeared.

The large hole in the building also began to recover, and the corpses of the zombies beside them that had been blown apart and crushed seemed to be slowly reorganising.

At this moment, everyone immediately understood one thing.

Use this chance and get downstairs!!
