Chapter 189 Survivors in the Dark
"Damn it, those alien swarms are catching up!"
Wang Hu held a torch in his hand and cursed angrily with a red face. In front of his sight, in the pitch-black darkness, he could see some human-like monsters that looked neither human nor human, walking on all fours on the ground.
These monsters had dark skin that blended into the night, and their eyes were bloodshot, revealing snow-white shark-like fangs.
They are much faster than ordinary people. Under the cover of night, they crawl around like human geckos.
The sound of them moving can be heard everywhere...
At this moment, these monsters did not rush up directly, but used various pieces of gravel, glass and other things they could pick up around them and threw them at them.
Of course, the main target was not people, but the special torches in their hands.
These monsters are afraid of fire!
Although some people have done experiments and found that fire cannot actually harm them unless they are burned by fire themselves, for some reason they are very afraid of fire.
If something happens, they, whose intelligence is not high, will definitely prioritize attacking the source of the fire.
To do this, they held the torches very high, about two meters, so that they would not be afraid of being hit by the enemy's attacks.
"Don't get caught by them, rush to Shelter 24, there is the body of that thing there, they dare not approach!"
Wang Hu shouted, then swung the crossbow in his hand and shot at these dark-skinned monsters, repelling their attempts to put out the fire.
Then, he led the other twelve people in the team and rushed towards Shelter No. 24.
But before he had taken a few steps, Wang Hu was suddenly startled. He saw something flying in the darkness. Its target was not the two-meter-high torch, but him...
His pupils shrank and he was about to dodge, but suddenly he felt a sharp pain in his knee.
Snap...
It was the sound of a knee breaking.
Wang Hu's body staggered due to the inertia of running, and he fell directly to the ground, falling heavily. His broken calf bone was broken along with his thigh.
"ah!"
The severe pain made him scream, and the veins on his neck were exposed, but soon, he endured the pain, raised his head with a look of despair and unwillingness, and looked at the front.
At this moment, he suddenly felt a pulling force on both arms. He was stunned for a moment, and when he looked up, he saw two young men who were going out for the first time and seemed to be trying to pull him along.
Although he felt somewhat touched, he knew very well that if his legs were broken at this time, he would have no chance of survival.
Wang Hu tried hard to break free from the two people's pulling. "That's what I taught you when we came out! Run ! Run! They've all run! Keep up with them, don't fall behind!"
His voice was full of despair and unwillingness, but there was nothing he could do.
“No, we’re almost there, just a hundred meters…” The person holding him refused to let go.
"You...get out of the way!"
Wang Hu was about to curse, but suddenly he noticed something was wrong. He saw something stand up in the darkness, making a gesture of swinging a stone and throwing it at them.
Suddenly, Wang Hu's breathing stagnated. He didn't care about the pain of his broken leg and pushed away a young man who was trying to pull him to escape.
Just at this moment, another stone came towards them with a whistling sound.
However, this time Wang Hu dodged in time and avoided the attack. He only suffered some minor scratches and a small piece of flesh on his arm was scraped off by the stone.
The stones continued to fall behind the crowd, breaking and exploding directly, showing how powerful the force was.
"Leave me alone ! These aliens are wrong! Run!"
Wang Hu shouted, and only then did he realize that there was definitely something wrong with these monsters.
Based on his many years of experience, it is impossible for the aliens to cross the flames and directly attack humans. If this happens, it means that there is something wrong with this group of aliens.
Although he didn't know what exactly happened, he knew very well that if this information was not passed back.
Then every time they go out at night, the search team will probably suffer heavy casualties.
"Run quickly and tell them the information here." Wang Hu stuffed the crossbow into the hands of the two men and drove them away. Then he saw the humanoid alien with the same dark skin in the darkness bending down, picking up a piece of rubble, and was about to attack him.
He looked up unwillingly at that place, picked up a stone as well, and shouted in despair and anger:
“Come on!!!”
As he shouted, he threw the stone in his hand with force and saw the other party also swinging the stone.
However, just as his stone flew out and he was about to close his eyes in despair, he saw the monster's head suddenly explode, and red sauce, white brains, and broken eyeballs splattered everywhere...
He was stunned by this - how could I be so powerful? Could it be that I have awakened super powers?
No, Wang Hu suddenly remembered that his stone seemed to be crooked and didn't hit the other party at all...
At this moment, the sound of gunfire rang out frequently, and he saw more than a dozen figures running out from the darkness in the direction of Shelter No. 24 with guns in hand.
Amid the flashes of gunfire, he roughly saw that these people were wearing combat uniforms, and faint sounds of mechanical hydraulics could be heard as they moved.
In just a short period of time, the surrounding black humanoid monsters who regarded this place as their territory after the apocalypse fled in panic.
"Special forces?" Wang Hu was stunned. He was not unfamiliar with these people. After all, he was once one of them.
However, this was the first time he had seen equipment so... "sci-fi".
"Cover fire!" Someone shouted. He saw someone from the team rushing out at a very fast speed, coming to him, grabbing his shoulders, and dragging him to Shelter No. 24.
Although he looks small in size, his strength is too strong.
Soon, he was dragged into this team that appeared out of nowhere, and then he saw several people who had fled to Shelter No. 24 before, and there were also several of them.
But compared to the total number of thirteen people in the team, there are only seven here.
"The others are already in the shelter, don't worry." Colin explained beside him.
At this moment, with the "Purified Heart" Buff as cover, he can run and jump openly again...
"Thank you..." Wang Hu said, and suddenly noticed that on the second-floor balcony of a building, a black alien inexplicably picked up a stone and aimed at them to smash it down.
Just as he was about to remind him, he suddenly saw the guy throwing a stone, but the stone flew out of his hand and flew in the opposite direction, hitting his face and smashing his head...
What is this?
Lifting a rock and hitting yourself on the head?
While he was shocked, Colin retreated with them as if he hadn't noticed, but he quietly held a golden card in his pocket.
