Chapter 447 - Mutant Worm Parasite
Fang Heng turned his head and glanced in the direction where Liang Hucheng and the others had retreated.
He asked, "Roche, are you familiar with the group that attacked Edge Creek Town? Do you know where their stronghold is?"
Roche said, "I know! That group is in the area next door, about six kilometers away from here. They've come to harass us more than once in the past."
He clenched his teeth when he mentioned Liang Hucheng and his men.
He said, "We let them escape the last few times. I didn't expect that they would take advantage of our lack of guards to launch a sneak attack..."
Fang Heng hummed in agreement.
He said, "Okay, take me there."
A light flashed across Roche's eyes.
He thought, "Commander was going to help us get back at them!"
Suddenly, Roche and the remaining Scavengers Army members felt a burning desire to fight.

They said in unison, "Yes! Commander!"
...
Liang Hucheng returned to the shelter with a group of defeated soldiers.
It was a nightmare.
He felt like he had just experienced a nightmare and risked his life to survive on the battlefield.
He was drenched in sweat.
He was sure that the unknown zombies he had encountered before were definitely Tier 5 mutated zombies.
He changed into a clean set of clothes and immediately returned to the shelter's command post to make arrangements.
He asked, "Have you informed the superiors about the previous battle?"
A Federation soldier said, "Yes, sir. The relevant situation has been reported to our superiors as soon as possible. We are currently gathering a portion of the battlefield footage. Once we are done, we will immediately...
"Report! Anomaly detected outside the shelter!"
Liang Hucheng asked, "What?"
The Federation soldier said, "Anomaly detected! It might be a high-tier zombie."
Then he switched the large screen image to the one captured by the surveillance camera outside the shelter.
He said, "The anomaly location has been placed on the surveillance screen."
On the screen, the camera zoomed out.
Liang Hucheng's eyelids twitched.
He thought, "This..."
He saw the two tall figures once again.
He shouted wordlessly, "That's right! It's them!
"The two Tier 5 mutated zombies I had encountered before!
"They had actually chased us to the shelter!
"I can meet them everywhere!"
Liang Hucheng's expression changed slightly. He was still worried about what just happened, but now he became even more nervous.
He shouted, "Quick! Confirm the zombies' identity!"
The research personnel of the shelter immediately made a comparison, saying, "Confirm they are high-level mutated zombies. There's no match in the database. Their size is similar to an increased version of the Tyrant form zombies.
"They seem to stop there and do not attack.
"Sir, the 2 Tier 5 mutated zombies are still outside the effective range of our shelter. Maybe only a long-range sniper rifle and some heavy weapons can hurt them. Should we attack?"
Liang Hucheng thought, "Attack?
"Of course not!"
He immediately rejected this stupid idea.
He had seen the defensive capabilities of Tier 5 mutated zombies.
Even if the two Tier 5 mutated zombies stood still, they would not be severely damaged at such a distance.
He did not know why the two Tier 5 mutated zombies did not attack.
But it would be even more troublesome if they took the initiative to attack and attract them.
So Liang Hucheng said, "No need. Do not attack for now. Everyone enters an advanced state. Send a distress signal to the nearby shelter and continue to observe!"
Others shouted, "Understand!"
A deputy commander felt uneasy and asked, "Do we need to send a team over to take a look?"
Liang Hucheng said, "No need."
...
Fang Heng was currently by a road approximately less than a kilometer from the shelter.
He jumped off Tyrant's shoulder and observed the shelter that belonged to Federation from afar.
From afar, this was a medium-sized shelter.
In theory, a similar shelter would not be equipped with beam weapons.
Roche also jumped off a fusion Tyrant form's shoulder and followed Fang Heng.
Along the way, Roche was greatly shocked.
This was the first time he discovered that a giant-sized zombie corpse could be used as a driving tool.
After landing, Roche carefully observed the two giant-sized zombie corpses.
He thought, "Are they the ones who wiped out an entire survivor corps?
He unconsciously shifted his gaze to the eyeball on the Tyrant form's chest.
He felt a strong sense of unease and discomfort from the bottom of his heart, so he hurriedly shifted his gaze away from the eyeball.
They waited on the spot for nearly three minutes, but Fang Heng did not move or speak.
Roche could not help but ask, "Commander, are we still waiting for reinforcements?"
Fang Heng remained silent as usual.
Roche frowned. He realized that Fang Heng seemed to be focusing on controlling something and didn't have the time to answer his question.
Suddenly, Roche heard several extremely weak sounds.
They were faint rustling sounds.
Looking in the direction where the sounds came from, Roche couldn't help but swallow.
He thought, "What are those things!"
He squinted at them carefully. Countless dark purple worm bodies about the size of fingernails crawled out from the cracked skin of the two giant-sized zombie corpses.
The purple worm bodies climbed along the zombie corpses' feet to the ground and quickly spread forward.
Roche was suddenly shocked.
He looked in the direction where the worm bodies were spreading. Then he raised his head to look at the shelter ahead.
"Skill: Mutant worm parasite."
Fang Heng was highly concentrated.
Controlling the purple worm bodies that crawled out from the fusion Tyrant forms was very difficult, and it required a lot of energy.
He had to give it his all.
...
Players were still in Federation's medium-sized shelter.
On top of the towering sentry tower, Federation's elite players were fully focused, staring at the two black shadows in the distance.
Ten minutes had passed.
The two black shadows did not move at all.
No one realized that there were countless tiny purple worm bodies on the ground rapidly approaching the camp.
The first batch of worm bodies was climbing up the sentry towers of the defensive line outside the shelter.
Lin Yueping was an elite sniper of Federation, and he gained a powerful long-range shooting talent skill after entering the game.
He had been staring at the two Tier 5 mutated zombies for a long time.
He could not help but mutter to himself, "What exactly are the two monsters..."
Through the scope, he could see the eyeball at the heart of the monsters, and he was scared.
One companion said, "I heard they are Tier 5 mutated zombies. Be careful. They are not that easy to deal with.
Another companion said, "I heard that Scavenger Army created them."
"I'm not sure. But our boss just met them, and he suffered a lot..."
On the sentry tower, Lin Yueping and the other two were staring at the giant-sized zombie corpses in the distance through their scope.
They didn't notice that a purple worm body quickly climbed up the ladder to the sentry tower.
The worm body crawled along the floor to Lin Yueping's feet, climbing up his shoes and crawling into his pants.
Suddenly, Lin Yueping shuddered and cried out in shock.
He shouted, "What's it!"
A game hint quickly flashed across his eyes.
"Hint: You have been attacked by an unknown worm body, receiving two points of damage."
"Hint: Your infection index has increased slightly."
"Hint: You have been attacked by an unknown worm body."
Lin Yueping felt something crawl into his pants. The red warning hint he saw confirmed that he was in trouble.
The other two companions on the sentry tower asked, "What's Wrong?"
They were puzzled, putting down their sniper rifle and looking at Lin Yueping.
Lin Yueping said, "There's something crawled up my leg..."
