#758 - Chapter 758 No. 1 and No. 2
Wang Zhiming covered his companion's mouth and nose, holding his own breath as he carefully peered through the crack in the cleaning room door.
Outside was a silent corridor.
The monster didn't seem to have chased after them.
He felt a slight sense of relief.
But he didn't dare assume the danger was over.
Because he had just witnessed what a monster truly was!
An absolute monster!
Just like in the movies and TV shows, these two things that had escaped from the metal crates were monsters in the truest sense of the word!
They possessed strong and resilient bodies, and bullets couldn't effectively injure them.
They also had terrifying running speed and jumping ability!
The North Port personnel could be a dozen meters away one second, and the next they'd be targeted, pounced upon, and torn to shreds!
Moreover, these two monsters seemed to have a terrifying sense of smell; even when they hid in the resting room, they were found and chased here!
They were just like terrifying mutated zombies!
So even hiding here, they couldn't relax, because the monsters outside could still find them.
But they had no other choice, and could only hope that the remaining armed North Port personnel outside could quickly deal with these two monsters that had broken into the dormitory building!
Without weapons, Wang Zhiming was as useless as garbage, completely unable to contend with those two terrifying beings.
Even injuring them was a luxury.
And so.
In this dim cleaning room, the two waited nervously.
Time gradually passed, and they occasionally heard chaotic noises in the distance, sounds of other companions firing weapons to resist and running for their lives, along with intermittent screams.
Wang Zhiming's heart sank further and further.
The situation was not optimistic!
Why couldn't they deal with these two monsters!?
Weren't most mutated zombies supposed to be manageable with a large enough number of weapons?
That's what the base taught everyone!
He didn't know how much time had passed.
The sounds outside grew fainter and fainter, until they disappeared completely.
Wang Zhiming felt a strong sense of unease.
There was no sound!
Had they dealt with the two mutated zombies outside?
He didn't know, and his young companion beside him couldn't possibly know either.
"Brother Wang, what's the situation outside? What should we do?"
His companion asked, his voice extremely quiet as he leaned close to Wang Zhiming's ear, afraid that his voice would attract something.
Unfortunately, Wang Zhiming couldn't answer his question.
It was almost completely dark outside now; the reason they had been hiding here and dared not go out was precisely because there was nowhere to hide outside the base in the dark, wasn't it?
They couldn't possibly run out of the base to wait for death, could they!?
But they didn't know that even if they had wanted to go out before, it would have been impossible; the gates of North Port Base had long been locked down.
This place had become someone's testing ground!
The two in the cleaning room grew increasingly uneasy and anxious; there was absolutely no sound outside, as if all the North Port personnel had died!
How was that possible!?
No matter what, North Port Base was considered a base of above-average strength; it couldn't possibly be wiped out by two monsters suspected to be mutated zombies, could it!?
It shouldn't be like this.
Shasha shasha!!!
The sound of a heavy object dragging appeared not far outside the cleaning room, and Wang Zhiming shuddered, the fear in his eyes almost overflowing, because he saw a tall and terrifying figure appear outside!
It was one of the two monsters that had been wreaking havoc inside the base!
By the light of the base's automatically activated lights, he saw that the monster's body was full of bullet holes, two of the finger claws on its left hand were missing, a small section of its right hand was broken off, and there was a huge, penetrating wound in its abdomen.
But these injuries hadn't stopped it from moving!
It seemed extremely angry, using its left hand with the remaining three sharp claws to grab a section of a corpse and devour it, and constantly moving towards the place where Wang Zhiming and the other were hiding!
Had they been discovered!?
Wang Zhiming didn't know, but he didn't dare make any movements, and could only pray that this monster that had appeared was just passing by.
Contrary to his wishes.
Just as the two were praying to the gods and Buddhas, this injured monster still came to a stop outside the cleaning room, seemingly having discovered them!
It was over!
Wang Zhiming's mood plummeted to the bottom, and a thick sense of despair enveloped his whole body; at this time, he couldn't think of any way to kill this monster!
The other young companion beside him was not much different, trembling in shock, seemingly waiting for his fate to arrive.
Since he couldn't kill this monster, he could only try to escape!
Wang Zhiming's eyes turned red and he glanced at his companion beside him; his eyes flashed fiercely, and with a ruthless heart, he grabbed the young man's hand and pulled and pushed hard, actually pushing him directly out of the cleaning room to face the monster head-on!!
"Wo ri ni ma!!!"
The young man never expected that this older brother, who had worked with him for several months and often helped each other, would do such a thing; after he desperately roared, he was grabbed by the terrifying monster with its grinning mouth!
Ba ji!
Shila!
The monster opened its mouth and bit directly into the young man's neck, fiercely tearing out his throat and drinking the spurting liquid in large gulps!
He died on the spot!
Wang Zhiming, who had betrayed his teammate, couldn't care about anything else; after pushing out his companion, he rushed out of the cleaning room towards the stairwell like a madman!
He had to escape as far as possible before the monster finished eating his companion!
Escape from North Port Base!
Even if he had to run into the darkness outside, there might still be half a chance of survival, but continuing to stay in North Port Base would definitely lead to death!
His thinking was correct.
But the monster didn't agree.
After drinking a few mouthfuls of delicious beverage, it violently looked towards the direction Wang Zhiming was running; it saw that this food had taken the opportunity to run down to the first floor and continue rushing in a certain direction.
Hu!
The monster jumped, ignoring the height of the three floors and directly jumping down from this building to appear on the ground, and turned into a black shadow to pounce towards Wang Zhiming, who was running for his life with his head down.
He vaguely heard an unusual sound coming from behind, but he couldn't care about looking back, and could only desperately continue rushing forward.
Until he felt a chill on his neck and a strange sense of weightlessness appeared, he felt as if he was flying, and the things in his vision were tumbling and spinning up and down.
Dong!
Wang Zhiming's head fell on the ground of North Port Base, rolling a few meters before completely stopping.
A headless corpse fell to the ground with a plop behind him, and was picked up by a tall figure who continued to suck at the severed area.
The entire North Port Base was silent, with only the faint sound of the monster eating under the illumination of a few lights.
In the high sky near North Port Base, two armed helicopters were hovering, recording everything that had happened below.
"Licker No. 1 is dead!"
"Licker No. 2 has completed the target's sweep!"
"Recover No. 2 and bring No. 1's body back to base! Let's go back!"
A series of instructions rang out in the helicopter.
