#982 - Chapter 982: Critical Situation
Splatter, splatter—
Under the barbed wire, the man slashed by Luo Zihau was bitten to death by zombies in a matter of seconds.
Perhaps, before his death, he had considered that following this boss would be dangerous, as there was a precedent set by another companion.
When killing zombies earlier, he had deliberately guarded against the possibility of this leader using him as a shield at any time.
However, the success of killing several zombies and the skillful cooperation with Boss Luo gradually lowered his guard.
As a result, he was too focused on the approaching zombies during the tense process of climbing the barbed wire, and he ignored the greater danger beside him, ultimately becoming his leader's stepping stone to survival.
Gao Qiang and Zhang Mingsheng glanced coldly at Luo Zihau not far away, then retracted their gazes and looked at the increasingly gathering zombies on the ground.
The newly appeared corpse was being gnawed, releasing a strong scent of blood and flesh. The previous unfortunate ghost had already been gnawed into a skeleton, and all the zombies quickly gathered to enjoy the new feast!
A full twenty-plus zombies surrounded them below!
At this time, about 5 minutes had passed since the start of the competition.
"Damn it!!! How can these bastards climb up!! This is cheating!! I don't accept losing!!"
"Hahaha!! I bet on 8 minutes! This time it's promising! There are no clear rules in the beast fighting competition, as long as you can survive! The previous participating survivors were too stupid to do this, but I thought about it a long time ago!!"
"Five minutes have already passed! Relying on the advantageous terrain, these people might really have a chance to last ten minutes!!? This competition is suddenly full of suspense!"
Many people around burst out with various noises, surprised by the method Gao Qiang and his companions had come up with.
Many beast fighting competitions have been held before, but most survivors chose to kill zombies by kiting, at most playing some back-to-back tactics, or using the corpses of dead zombies to build obstacles to resist guerrilla warfare.
This was the first time anyone had directly climbed to the top of the barbed wire to avoid zombie attacks like today.
The remaining three men survived for the time being.
"Later, after those zombies surround us, we will continue to use the terrain to hack and kill the enemies! If we stabilize, we have a chance to kill them all!"
Gao Qiang didn't make any judgment on Luo Zihau's behavior, but tightened the machete in his hand and said to Luo Zihau over there.
Zhang Mingsheng had already discarded the shield in his hand because it was inconvenient for climbing, so currently only Gao Qiang and Luo Zihau still had weapons to fight back.
Even though the man next to him had betrayed his own people twice, Gao Qiang, as the main force in killing zombies, didn't plan to openly fall out with him.
Luo Zihau nodded with a gloomy face.
His last companion had already died, leaving him alone. He really had to rely on himself from now on, and he didn't even have a companion to use as a scapegoat.
The three-meter-high barbed wire fence, according to Gao Qiang's estimation, allowed them to lean down slightly and extend their machetes to kill the approaching zombies.
They still had a chance to win!
A little over a minute later.
The second unlucky ghost of the Mad Dog Gang was finally almost completely devoured by the zombies.
God knows why these things can eat meat so terrifyingly fast. They don't need to chew at all when they gnaw and swallow. Large chunks of muscle and internal organs continuously enter their stomachs like tofu.
After eating this man, they stood up with their round bellies facing the three people above, never feeling full!
At such a close distance, these nocturnal hungry zombies could still smell the scent of flesh!
There was still food here!
Roar—
Blood-stained mouths roared as they continued to pounce towards Gao Qiang and the others.
Pfft—
Gao Qiang and Luo Zihau, who had been prepared for a long time, did not hesitate to swing the machetes in their hands with all their might!
Attacks rained down on the zombies below that couldn't dodge, and the outcome of the competition continued to be full of suspense!
————————————
The luxurious box at the venue.
Gao Lan watched the scenes below excitedly, her heart completely changing with Gao Qiang's situation.
She watched her brother being chased by a large number of zombies, and then found weapons to kill many of them by kiting.
Just as she breathed a sigh of relief, she saw other zombies preparing to surround him, but her brother found a new way to avoid the zombies, and now it seemed like he had gained an advantage and was firmly killing the zombies below the barbed wire!
Victory was in sight!
"Brother, come on!!"
She couldn't help but shout.
However, the noisy shouts of thousands of men in the venue completely drowned out her "inconspicuous" cheering sound.
Bang—
Suddenly.
A loud noise appeared not far from her, and a table was smashed to pieces by a large hand!
It was Black Boss.
The teasing and smiles from before were gone from his face. He seemed unhappy with the situation below.
Nearly 7 minutes had passed since the start of the competition, and judging from the posture of the three people below, they could continue to persevere, and even have a chance to kill all thirty zombies!
This was a situation that had never occurred in the Prison Base before!
He couldn't wait any longer!
"Release the blood!!"
He roared in the box without turning his head.
The staff member who had been following him to handle instructions nodded knowingly. Under Gao Lan's uneasy and confused gaze, the underground arena changed again!
Fine red rain suddenly sprayed out from above the arena, dyeing Gao Qiang and the others and the zombies below completely red!
An even louder noise rang out throughout the venue!
Because everyone knew that the competition had entered a critical moment!
The unique operation belonging to the Prison Base had finally appeared!
When a "plot" that made Black Boss unhappy appeared, this kind of blood rain that stimulated the zombies to go crazy would descend!
As the blood rain spread, the zombies below seemed to be strengthened, and their movements became more agile and their strength became more terrifying!
In the surprised gazes of Gao Qiang and the others, the remaining twenty zombies actually began to trample on each other, gradually forming a rudimentary corpse tower!
Their height was only a mere three meters, and they couldn't withstand the formation of a corpse tower at all!
"Hurry up and kill them!! Absolutely don't let the zombies get close!"
Gao Qiang shouted madly, and the machete in his hand turned into a series of afterimages, pouncing towards the heads of the zombies below.
Luo Zihau on the other side also didn't care about conserving his strength and repeatedly exerted his greatest strength to attack the zombies!
But no matter how fast the two of them were, the nearly twenty zombies below that had lost their eating target couldn't be killed completely in a short time!
They could still move if the vital parts inside their heads weren't completely smashed!
Before, Gao Qiang and his companions had time to slowly kill the zombies because two Mad Dog Gang members had contributed their bodies to hold them back, and because their physical strength was relatively abundant.
Now that they were forced into a corner, they were about to be touched by the small corpse tower below!
Zhang Mingsheng next to Gao Qiang couldn't help but attack the gradually surrounding zombies with his feet!
Perhaps because there were two people on their side, the scent of flesh and blood emitted was even stronger than Luo Zihau's alone, resulting in even more zombies being attracted!
The situation was critical!
