Chapter 24 Chapter 24 (2/2)
Ji Yushi raised his head, “Feed me.”
It could be seen that Ji Yushi wasn’t thinking about whether that act was appropriate. Because his hands were still covered in the mucous from Li Chun’s body, the fact that he hadn’t vomited was already pretty good. It was absolutely impossible for him to use those hands to take out the medicine from the bottle and eat it.
Song Qinglan took out a pill and stuffed it into his mouth.
Ji Yushi vaguely mumbled, “Thank you.”
When his fingers touched those hot lips, Song Qinglan asked, “You have a fever?”
As he said this, he reached to touch Ji Yushi’s forehead.
It was hot to touch. Ji Yushi really had a fever.
But Ji Yushi wasn’t concerned. This place didn’t have water and, perhaps because he wanted to make the painkiller work faster, he chewed the bitter pill with a frown, “It may be an infection. We’ll worry about it later.”
The two talked for less than a minute and during this time, Li Chun woke up.
Duan Wen shouted, “Cap Song!!”
Li Chun was already able to sit up on his own. The mucous on his face was cleaned up and only his body was still slimy. His entire person was still in a state of shock and unable to form coherent words.
Everyone surrounded Li Chun.
“Chun’er, you’re amazing. You’re very fortunate to still be alive!”
“How did you fall back down again? Seeing you swept away, I almost gave you a memorial service on the spot!”
“Tell this brother about your heroic acts!”
Li Chun immediately started to cry with an ugly expression, “I was eaten, and then, and then I didn’t want to die, so I stabbed everywhere with a knife…..I think I was spat back out…..waaaaahhhh.”
Then that mucous……..
Everyone: “………”
Bleurgh.
“To eat you and then spit you back out, how big is that thing? What kind of thing is it?!”
Zhao Mingxuan looked up. Those giant spiders were still wandering around the hole, as if they were reluctant to let their prey go but also as if they were afraid of something.
At this moment, the pipe where they were taking a breather on started to shake violently.
When they were above, they had seen such a sound coming from the vents. It meant that that thing was coming!
“Gecko, mouse, cockroach, snake.” Ji Yushi stood up. His face was still covered in cold sweat but now was not to time to worry about it, “These things like to go through vents. I just don’t know if it’s one of them…..or a mixture.”
Mi-mixture?
Everyone was shocked.
This means that in this base, everything could be mutated?!
Ji Yushi spoke very quickly, “If I am not mistaken, the energy supply point for Golden Crow No.2 is below the control centre. The closer you are to that place, the stranger the sights you will see. Golden Crow No.1 only provided the basic energy supply, and after Golden Crow No.2’s establishment and the energy source was doubled, energy consumption doubled as well. They had no choice but to obtain more energy from the universe so the radiation and subsequent mutation is far worse on this end.”
Humans turned into zombies that no longer had the ability to think for themselves and only knew to eat.
Animals and insects underwent various changes.
This colony named PU-31 had completely collapsed.
There was no command centre for the Tianqiong system in this era. That cold system had hijacked this group of guardians and the aim of this mission was very clear.
Turn off the energy transmitters, let all the energy be released at once and let everything within range be sucked into the empty void.
Once all the energy transmitters are turned off, PU-31 would lose all its energy and no longer be able to sustain itself. In the end, it would be sucked into the crevice of the universe and disappear completely.
The crevice between parallel universes created PU-31.
And it will be the one to destroy PU-31.
When Ji Yushi finished saying this, the pipe shook violently again. The vibration had reached their feet. Everyone had a look of horror, “Let’s move!”
“Boom!”
Not far away, a ventilation duct broke open and a ‘tongue’ about three or four metres shot out towards them.
The ‘tongue’ retracted itself again amidst the gunfire.
The grappling hook was only twenty metres long. If they wanted to go down from here, they would still be a few metres away from the ground. It wasn’t long enough.
Song Qinglan looked around, “There is a maintenance ladder ahead!”
Sure enough, several metres away against the curved wall of this base was a maintenance ladder.
The pipe shook violently. The thing inside went back and forth and its ‘tongue’ shot out from another nearby place to attack! This time, everyone saw it clearly. That ‘tongue’ really made it hard for them to distinguish what animal it was. There were some suckers on the back, but the front was like a normal tongue and there was also a small fork on the tip of it. They couldn’t tell if it was a gecko or a snake.
Everyone sprinted over as fast as they could.
They headed straight for the ladder and slid all the way down. No one paid any attention to the pain on their palms.
It may have been a long time since it had eaten something so fresh. That ‘tongue’ that Li Chun had escaped from seemed very irritated and continued to wave around from inside the pipe. With a ‘crash’, the pipe about thirty or forty metres long broke off and collapsed onto the ground.
Song Qinglan got onto the maintenance ladder last. He only had time to see a slimy and fleshy mass appear from the pipe on the ground. It was an extremely disgusting sight.
Following this loud noise, the zombies that no longer fell through the hole above them reappeared.
These zombies originally couldn’t find their directions and were wandering about aimlessly but after being attracted over by the sound, they started falling through the hole in the ceiling like dumplings.
The lower ground was lively. That ‘tongue’ swung about furiously, trying to get rid of the bothersome zombies, but those zombies didn’t feel any pain. Many of them even had broken bones from the fall but even if they only had an upper body left, they still desperately crawled towards the moving ‘tongue’.
The ‘tongue’ was surrounded. The zombies which didn’t care about their life or death surrounded it and started tearing into the ‘tongue’, forcing it to retreat back into the pipe.
The giant spiders couldn’t hold back anymore.
They crawled down along the walls, also wanting to get a piece of the pie.
The giant spiders were afraid of the ‘tongue’ and the ‘tongue’ was afraid of the zombies. With the three of them in the same place, they no longer cared about their fears.
For the living, this was hell!
“Ji Yushi!”
Song Qinglan’s roar from behind reached his ears. Ji Yushi turned back and saw a large mouth appear behind him. The top closed down and the bottom closed up, it was about to bite off his head in one go.
“Move aside!”
Someone suddenly appeared on a spider’s back. It was also Song Qinglan!!
The man’s face was serious, and his eyes were indescribably cold. At this critical moment, he shoved a bomb into that spider’s mouth.
Instantly knowing what he needed to do, Ji Yushi rolled away. The other person also slipped off the spider’s back.
“Boom!”. The sound was deafening. The spider’s innards flew everywhere and its body was blown to pieces.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
Many gunshots sounded. Several familiar figures hung from the hole in the ceiling. One after another, they occupied the advantageous position of being on higher ground and shot at the zombies and spiders below.
There was a total of six people there. Team B was here!
With their fighting power instantly doubled, the situation was reversed!
The two Song Qinglan’s were exactly the same. They didn’t need to communicate at all and turned their heads back at the same time and yelled, “To the control room!!”
Ji Yushi ran to the control room. As he shot down the zombies, he saw his other self.
They were both running through the gunpower smoke.
It was like looking in a mirror.
JI Yushi saw his other self’s expression suddenly change, “Behind!!”
Accompanying this reminder, the other party threw the gun in his hand over!
The small Diamond Bird was silvery white all over.
It drew an arc in the air and fell into Ji Yushi’s hands.
Without even stopping to think, Ji Yushi caught the gun thrown over by his other self with his left hand, turned his head and saw that the ‘tongue’ and popped out of the pipe again. This time it had split into two and it flew towards him like a snake!
Ji Yushi held a Diamond Bird in each hand and shot with perfect accuracy. He was a perfect double gun wielder. Firing the two guns at the same time, he very easily shot a section off the two ‘tongues’.
Immediately afterwards, he continued running and threw the gun back.
The other Ji Yushi was similarly calm. He continued to run after receiving his gun.
One bent down and slid over the pipe on the ground that was blocking his way.
One jumped and landed on the shoulder of a zombie. With a twist of his legs, his perfect Jiu-Jitsu skill broke the zombie’s neck in an instant.
Without needing to say anything, the Ji Yushi wearing a black combat uniform and the Ji Yushi wearing a white T-shirt looked like twins.
With thirteen members of the Tianqiong seventh squad, they were currently in their best condition to fight.
