Chapter 213 (2/2)
Yu Hanjiang frowned slightly . “The more than 30 teams of challengers should’ve been scattered to different areas when entering the secret room . The east district we’ve chosen is probably the last place to be invaded by the bugs so we didn’t encounter danger all day . It isn’t necessarily the case for other people . ”
Xiao Lou nodded . “It seems very important to find the right location . At that time, Group Leader Yu read the map and a.n.a.lyzed that the east district is the logistics distribution centre with many low buildings . The population density here is low and it was the right choice to come here . Some teams might’ve fled to the north, south or west of the city and were wiped out by the bugs . ”
Yu Hanjiang added, “There might also be one or two infected people inside the challenger teams who killed their teammates . ”
They thought of the Luoying Pavilion team who burned their teammate in the supermarket and couldn’t help being worried .
The death toll was as high as 46 people on the second day . It should be that 4-5 teams were destroyed . These people might’ve been infected by bad luck while evacuating the middle of the city . One person’s infection would destroy the entire team . Another possibility was that they chose the wrong evacuation route and were surrounded by the bug army .
By following Group Leader Yu to the east of the city, everyone successfully lived through the day . This wasn’t luck . It was due to the most powerful person in the team a.n.a.lyzing the situation of the city and making the most accurate choice .
Yu Hanjiang told them, “Take a break first . We don’t know the speed of the infection and the east can’t be stable for long . Be prepared to fight at any time . ”
It was late and everyone entered their tents to sleep .
Nothing happened overnight .
The next day, the team had a rare day off .
Nothing happened the entire day and the team was a bit confused . The bugs really hadn’t come to the east of the city yet?
At 24:00, the prompt appeared on the floating boxes again .
[8 of Spades Doomsday Escape, the fourth day, 00:00 in the morning]
[Number of challengers remaining: 208]
Ye Qi’s eyes widened . “More than 90 people died today!”
The number of deaths on this day had doubled compared to yesterday . It might be that a large-scale battle broke out in a certain area . Around 10 teams of challengers had been infected or died directly . This situation wasn’t very optimistic .
Yu Hanjiang opened his mouth . “Perhaps the bugs went to the north, south or west of the city where the challengers were hiding . The escape plan didn’t turn out well and they were surrounded by the bug army and wiped out . ”
After all, there was a limit to a small number of people fighting against a large number . 8 people fighting 50 was possible . It also might be possible to win against 500 . However, fighting 5,000 or even 50,000 bugs? If they didn’t have a good plan in advance then they would be overwhelmed by the tide of bugs in an instant!
The doubled number of deaths made everyone nervous .
Xiao Lou suggested, “Don’t sleep tonight and keep watch in groups . Be vigilant at all times . The bug army might come to the east of the city soon . ”
Ye Qi couldn’t help remembering the sight of countless bugs pouring from their nest and he shook . “I still can’t sleep . ”
Just then, the sound of footsteps was heard outside .
After dark, Ye Qi had activated his bug in the snowman in front of the warehouse . The beginner level bug could listen for 30 minutes at a distance of 50 metres . Now it was full level and they could listen for eight hours continuously and the distance was increased to 500 metres .
Ye Qi raised his ears in an alert manner and made a ‘shh’ motion . “Someone has come . ”
Since the sun hadn’t been seen in these two days, the snow on the road hadn’t melted . The ugly snowman Ye Qi piled under the tree hadn’t melted and the bug hidden inside it clearly transmitted the surrounding sound .
Yu Hanjiang took the eavesdropper from Ye Qi and listened carefully . “10 people are walking on the snow . Their footsteps are very regular unlike the crawling bugs . They should be nearby residents or challengers . Most likely, they are challengers . ”
After all, the city residents were now in a panic and were hiding at home . A group of 10 people wouldn’t run around in the middle of the night .
Everyone looked at each other .
Xiao Lou whispered, “I will open the Peach Blossom Spring . We will hide first to see what they want to do . ”
