Chapter 9 (1/2)
9 – The Prey’s Flight
In the middle of the night, a male ran into a dark alley
Sun Qi already doesn’t knows how long he ran – there are everywhere sounds of those monsters’ roars! Those that once were called humans have completely transformed, while humans became their food!
However, what truly scared Sun Qi, was the scene from just a moment ago.
The canines, blood and the pupils that made people tremble and loose the ability to stand …
That … man …
That man … was a monster, ah!
Sun Qi leaned against the empty alley to catch his breathe.
Sun Qi was aware of his own cowardice, the despair in his cla.s.smate’s gaze, whom he had promised to protect – he would forever remember it.
“Sorry, cla.s.smate Xia Ying.” Sun Qi spoke in a soft voice … in this quiet night with an extremely cold wind.
Even in this alley.
“It’s also so cold, ah.”
“Ah ah!!”
A noise suddenly sounded beside Sun Qi’s ear, it made him so terrified that he fell on the ground, into a paddle of foul water, dirtying his uniform – then a shadow shrouded him.
In front of Sun Qi’s eyes, the pair of terrifying scarlet pupils emerged once again.
Lu Qiu stood at the entrance of the alley, while watching the poor b.a.s.t.a.r.d.
“What … what did you do to cla.s.smate Xia Ying?” He asked with a trembling voice, he probably still held some kind of hope.
“That brat?” Lu Qiu pondered a bit, then he smiled and spoke: “Of course she was dismembered limb by limb and then I ate her, ah – that la.s.s tasted pretty good, oh, especially her desperate cry’s, splendid.”
Before killing a prey, Lu Qiu first had this kind of ** wicked fun, that he unwittingly acquired.
“Not like this, let me off … please …”
Death has already descended, yet Sun Qi doesn’t want to die!
Sun Qi fell to the ground and retreated backwards, Lu Qiu extended a hand to grab him.
The moment when Lu Qiu extended his hand to grab Sun Qi.
The sound of a gunshot pierced the night – a bullet almost brushed Lu Qiu’s arm, it flew into a puddle in front of Sun Qi and the foul water splas.h.i.+ng on his face, immediately waking him up from his stupor.
Run! Sun Qi, at this moment, made the most proper decision of his whole life.
When the bullet suddenly appeared, Lu Qiu became stunned for a moment, he then sprang up and quickly ran backwards – in the direction from where the bullet was shot, was a hospital surrounded by zombies.
“d.a.m.n it!” Lu Qiu definitely can’t let Sun Qi flee – he extended a hand as if wanting to grasp Sun Qi. As long as he grasps Sun Qi’s ‘heart’, then everything is going to be fine.
But then another gunshot sounded!
Lu Qiu could perceive the rapid rotation of the bullet, almost brus.h.i.+ng his ear, ** the ground beside him.
When Lu Qiu once again recovered, he saw Sun Qi miraculously pa.s.s through the zombie crowd’s encirclement and flee into the hospital.
Who was it?
Having his pray escape didn’t made Lu Qiu become rush – he raised his head while standing in the alley and looked for the person that shot at him.
The gunman obviously didn’t intend to claim Lu Qiu’s life, because if he really wanted to do it, then the first bullet should have declared Lu Qiu’s death.
The mid-level blood-sucking specie’s blood-lineage still is pretty much powerless in front of human firearms.
Lu Qiu could distinctly see from within the alley, via the blood-sucking specie’s unique night vision, a pitch-black muzzle extended from a window of a certain room, on the third floor of a nearly eight-floor tall hospital building.
Lu Qiu had studied common human’s firearms quite deeply, after all, if one wants to prevail over their opponent, one must first understand their opponent.
No matter if it’s the wars between humans or the wars between vampires and humans, that is an eternal truth.
SVD? Tch, to actually get this type of weapon within the New China Federation.1
Lu Qiu via his, different from an ordinary person’s, eyesight’s scope, could clearly see the muzzle extended from the window and identify it’s general model.
It is a SVD sniper rifle manufactured in the former Soviet Union, it can easily run trough an elephants body – Lu Qiu is incapable of determining the specific model, however, the gunman is approximately a 30 year old male.
There was no killing intent emitted from the gunman’s eyes – Lu Qiu was able to understand it through interacting with the gunman’s line of sight for a moment, that’s how the gunman revealed his intentions
“Leave.”
The muzzle has been facing Lu Qiu the whole time and the gunman’s finger was put on the trigger.
Letting me leave? Human … first worry about yourself, Lu Qiu fake-raised his hands in surrender and slowly retreated within the alley.
“Roar!!”
The zombies that originally wandered on the streets, due to Sun Qi’s running past them, were stimulated by the human flesh’s and ** smell, then rammed against the hospital’s entrance.
More and more zombies surround the whole hospital, they have already smelled the scent of the living from within!
Consume those that are living! The zombies ** attacked the hospital’s gla.s.s door, by the looks of it, it should not hold for long.
The gunman’s expression started becoming panicked and indecisive, due to the zombies’ berserk ramming against the door.
He’ll probably make his last stand at the hospital, as that’s his only option.
There must be certainly more than one person within the hospital.
“Since you robbed me of my prey.” Lu Qiu raised high an object in his hand: “Therefore, you’ll all become my prey!”
Looks like trouble! The gunman seemed to have reacted to the strange pitch-black object that suddenly appearing in Lu Qiu’s hand.
But just as he wanted to pull the trigger, Lu Qiu had already thrown the thing in his hands.
High explosive grenade!
Exchanged for 100 Despair Points.
Hundred lives exchange for an explosion!
That zombie crowd was working hard, so Lu Qiu ought to give them a treat!
“Ladies and Gentlemen, it’s time for dinner!”A Blaze spreading at the hospital’s door was reflected within Lu Qiu’s eyes – the violent explosion directly attacked the hospital’s sealed entrance and knocked down the zombies near the entrance
The subsequent zombies stampeded those zombies that were on the ground and stormed into the hospital.
