Doomsday Officers Operation Team-Chapter 64 Climbing
Chapter 64 - 64 Climbing
Everyone was frightened.
No one knew where these zombies were hiding before, but now they surrounded the entire rescue team with a clear purpose. Their bodies were obviously rotten and their muscle tissue was exposed, but these zombies were thinking with their minds. Their resurrection could be explained by the Blue Sea mutation potion, and everyone had to accept this fact. So what about now?
They actually have the ability to think and have learned to cooperate in hunting. What will they do next?
The unknown is the most frightening thing.
There was no telling how many zombies there were in this town. Thinking about the sight that had spied on them before, there was no telling how many zombies were lurking in the quiet office buildings around them, observing them. Just thinking about it made one's scalp tingle.
These zombies blocked the exits on both sides of the street so tightly that there was no gap at all, and it was impossible to estimate their number. These zombies moved very quickly, almost running, making shrill howls from their mouths and rushing towards the besieged rescue team from both sides of the road, like a ferocious beast pouncing on its prey, and could swallow up these humans in an instant.
The rescue team this time was not choreographed. The trainees got on the plane randomly in a hurry. Not every group was as lucky as Suwan's group. Although Suwan's group was attacked by al-Qaeda members, they did not lose a single person in the end. The rescue team that Suwan is in now is the integration of two or three rescue teams. Including instructor Oviso, there are only 12 people. The trainees did not know each other all. Although it was the first time to cooperate, everyone had a tacit understanding and responded to emergencies in the first time. They all raised their weapons, stood back to back, aimed at the zombies on both sides and fired. The zombies in the front were shot in the forehead and fell down, and were immediately knocked down and trampled by the zombies chasing from behind.
However, there were too many zombies, and they were very fast. When the zombies had the advantage in numbers, humans could only let themselves be slaughtered. The zombies were getting closer and closer to the rescue team. The trainees of the rescue team had to retreat very quickly while shooting at them, but they had no time to aim. A few gunshots could not stop the zombies at all. The zombies made ugly howling sounds, as if they were excited about the delicious meal they were about to enjoy.
The closer the distance, the clearer the hideous appearance of the zombies can be seen. There are too many zombies, and who knows if there are more hiding in the dark. The rescue team cannot waste ammunition here. Moreover, they have fallen into the trap set by the zombies, just like a rabbit fallen into a trap. They have no choice but to jump at the bottom of the pit. If they want to fight back and get out of the predicament, they must escape from the trap first.
"Run!" Oviso shouted at the top of his lungs.
So everyone stopped attacking. Both sides of the street were occupied by zombies, who were attacking them from both sides. So they ran across the street, slinging their submachine guns over their shoulders as they ran, and then started a race with the zombies.
There are tall buildings on both sides of the street. This town seems to have been very lively. The tall buildings are built very neatly, or maybe it is because it is near Belster and has developed well.
The rescue team gave up leaving from the street and chose to climb up the building instead. They didn't have time to go inside the building to find a safe passage. The fastest way now was to climb up the wall of the building and avoid the zombies. Although these zombies were smarter, they still didn't seem to be able to climb, so they could only take a gamble now.
Suwan ran to the front of the building, jumped up without any hesitation, grabbed the edge of the awning of the shop below the building with both hands, and climbed onto the awning with one pull-up. The awning's load-bearing capacity was not strong, and Suwan felt loose under her feet when she stepped on it. She immediately stood up and reached out to grab the protruding balcony tiles on the second floor. She pushed her feet against the wall to climb up and flip her whole body over, then turned her body sideways and barely stood on the narrow balcony tiles. Suwan's skills were very clean, and in just a moment, part of the awning collapsed.
Suwan took a breath and continued to climb up. Everyone tried to find various ways to climb up like her. Even if there was no leverage, the height of the jump was enough for them to grab the protruding balcony bricks on the second floor. Fortunately, this was a climbable building. If it was a building with completely glass walls, they would have no way out. All 12 people climbed up the building nimbly, but this was not rock climbing, but escaping.
When all the students climbed up the wall of the tall building and climbed up several floors, the zombies on both sides of the street gathered together and chased them to the bottom of the building with a common goal. Fortunately, they could not climb. The zombies slapped the wall with their palms angrily, and they could not catch the students who were several meters above their heads even if they raised their arms.
No one looked down, they all knew what they would see. There was nothing good about the rotten and horrible zombies, so everyone quickened their pace to climb up. However, at this moment, the student who was climbing one floor above Suwan suddenly cried out, as if he had seen something terrible. Before he could react, he was knocked down by a zombie that jumped out of the broken window and fell from the fifth floor with that zombie. Suwan watched him fall, and quickly put all his strength on one hand and reached out to grab him with the other. The student subconsciously wanted to ask Suwan for help, but as soon as Suwan raised his hand, the student had already fallen. A person would not die immediately if he fell from this height, and the student did not fall on the ground, as the ground was already crowded with those densely packed zombies. The student fell into the group of zombies, attracted the attention of some zombies, and was immediately covered by the zombies' figures. The zombies greedily gathered around him, biting and tearing all parts of his body, sucking his flesh and blood. More zombies raised their arms and surrounded the tall building, eager to catch more people.
Sharp screams rang out, one after another. Suwan saw from the gaps between the zombies that the student had become a bloody man. His body was torn by countless pairs of dark blue hands, all his skin was cracked, and his heart was dug out by the zombies' sharp nails, but he had not died immediately.
Watching this scene, Suwan felt her heart tightened. Even though she didn't know each other, they were the same person. She couldn't control her excitement, and couldn't bear to watch him die slowly and painfully. Suwan unhooked the pistol from the buckle, then pointed the pistol downward and pulled the trigger. Suwan fired several shots. The first few shots killed the zombies that blocked her view. After the zombies fell, Suwan's last bullet went through the gap between the zombies' bodies and hit the head of the student lying on the ground.
Then Suwan put away the gun and put all his strength into climbing with his hands, without even looking down.
There were also zombies in the building. Everyone was on edge and being more careful about these damn things that suddenly jumped out. Although some zombies broke through the windows of the building later, because the trainees were prepared, those zombies had to fall alone. It took them less than two minutes to climb to the top of the building. Their nerves were tense and they didn't feel anything while climbing. They climbed up to the top floor from the balconies on each window sill with guns on their backs, and shot and killed several zombies wandering on the top floor before they felt sore in their arms. But they couldn't rest in this situation.
This was totally different from the easy job they had expected.
Oviso and several students checked the top floor to confirm that there were no more zombies. The safety passage on the top floor was locked. Generally, the safety passages in buildings are just for show and will be locked by the administrator for the convenience of management, but now it is convenient for the students. The locked safety passage can at least make people feel more at ease. These zombies will not rush up immediately, which can give them some breathing time and discuss the next action plan. You know, the current actions of these zombies are beyond their imagination.
"These zombies are different from the ones we've seen before."
"Damn it! They even know how to set traps. How can they be so smart?"
Several students cursed under their breath. They were human too and they also had bad tempers sometimes.
It was the howling of the zombies on the rooftop that was heard more clearly by the wind. Suwan didn't know if it was her illusion, but amidst the howling, she seemed to hear the sound of flesh being eaten. Her sixth sense wasn't that good, but Suwan couldn't help herself from listening. She glanced at the trainees and Instructor Oviso who were gathered around the technicians, and seeing that no one noticed her, she walked to the edge of the roof with her weapon in hand and looked down.
The student's body was no longer visible. Perhaps it had been eaten up, or perhaps it had been stepped on by the zombies. Some of the zombies had bright red blood on their faces.
The blood might be hot, Suwan couldn't help but think.
Unable to see the body of the student, Suwan became inexplicably anxious. She raised her light machine gun and used the scope to look at the zombies with blood on their mouths, who had just participated in the feast. Her finger was on the trigger, but she couldn't waste ammunition, so she looked at them one by one. Although these zombies had just tasted the flesh and blood of living people, they greedily wanted more. They would not be satisfied even if all the living people in the world died. Even if their lives were different when they were alive, they would become demons after death. Suwan became more and more irritated, but she always controlled herself and didn't shoot.
Then Suwan discovered something. The number of zombies seemed to be decreasing. This was not an illusion. Their howling was also much quieter. The nearby zombies were all gathered under the building. So where did the missing zombies go?
Suwan immediately turned around and said to the others with certainty, "The zombies have entered the building."
These zombies couldn't climb up, so they chose to enter the roof from inside the building.
Everyone's face became even uglier.
However, these zombies even know how to hunt, so it's not surprising that they know how to take advantage of their victory to catch prey.
