Chapter 405 Entering the Town

There is not much gasoline in the Raptor's fuel tank, but if you pump the gasoline out of the wrecked Sababan's fuel tank and drive back to Highway 13, it won't be a big problem to return to the previous town.

No matter how bad things get, there will always be passing cars on the road, so contacting the outside world first seems to be the safest plan.

But there was no fool among the people present. What does it mean to be ambushed by a group of monsters on the only way to a small town?

On this moonless night, I wonder what fate is happening to the residents of that remote town?

While Rosie and Hotchner were discussing, Jack pulled out three more corpses from the bushes where the monsters were hiding and threw them together with the previous two corpses.

Rhett had woken up from a coma and was enduring the vomiting sensation caused by a slight concussion. He squatted in front of the Raptor and studied the corpses by the light.

Seeing that there was still blood oozing from his armpit, but he didn't seem to notice it, as if he was completely absorbed in it, Jack could only pull him aside first and clean his wound.

"What are you studying?"

Jack washed his hands with bottled water, took out a leather case from the car, opened the silver flask inside, poured some diluted "water of life", and simply disinfected his hands.

Then he directly used the remaining alcohol to rinse Red's wound, causing the guy to grin in pain.

"I wonder what made them like this."

There was also a small bottle of Yunnan Baiyao he had prepared in the leather case, which came in handy. Among other things, the external application of the powder was quite effective in stopping bleeding and relieving pain.

While applying medicine and bandaging to him, Jack briefly told what he had experienced in New Mexico.

In the BAU team, only Rosie, who helped summon the seal, and Jiejie, who heard Jack's story, knew about it.

"That's pretty much it. The monsters here are more disgusting than those ogres. Those ogres look a bit human at least."

But Red caught the point of Jack's complaint.

"Are you saying that the ones you met in New Mexico were mutations caused by nuclear radiation?"

"It is said that yes, their entire group is controlled by a perverted family who uses them to dig deep in the mountains."

As Jack spoke, he was suddenly stunned. Why did they chase them all the way here? Isn’t it just because of a glass bead with nuclear radiation and a photo with a nuclear test site in the background?

Emily, who had been listening to their chat, ran to the back of the Raptor, took out the Geiger counter that Jack had used from the trunk, and got close to the corpses of the monsters on the ground.

"Beep beep!" the Geiger counter shouted happily.

"Where do you think these monsters come from?"

Rossi and Hotchner, who were chatting in low voices, were also attracted by the beeping sound. Everyone looked at each other for a moment. If it was a coincidence, it would be a bit insulting to the intelligence of everyone present.

There must be some relationship between the appearance of these monsters and Jeremy, and the answer may lie in the town of Meihu not far away.

——

It seemed that there was no need to make any decision, and everyone began to count the weapons and ammunition they owned. They found two Noveske N4 assault rifles. Each gun came with one magazine and two spare magazines.

Jiejie had emptied two magazines in one go. Fortunately, there were still enough bullets in Sababan's weapon box, but reloading was a bit troublesome.

The other self-defense weapons are all Glock 22 sidearms. Each person has 2 spare magazines with enough bullets. They can be reloaded when empty.

Jack's FK7.5 also has plenty of ammunition. Since he developed a phobia of running out of ammunition, he always brings four spare magazines and two boxes of ammunition with him when he goes out.

Their last resort was still the Barrett MK22-MOD0-ASR. Hotchner and the others came on the Gulfstream and conveniently loaded the gun into the Saber when they got off the plane.

The protection of the gun box is very good. Although the Saboban was damaged in the collision, the assault rifle and sniper rifle placed in the weapon box and kept in separate gun boxes did not suffer any damage.

Although under normal circumstances, this kind of big sniper is definitely not as useful as an assault rifle in an encounter, but for Jack, who once used a Barrett as a heavy machine gun on a small island in Southeast Asia, it was another time. It's over.

Two assault rifles were assigned to Jiejie and Hotchner, and Jack gave his Glock pistol to Emily. Her pistol shooting skills were much more reliable than Red's.

Red's sidearm was given to Rossi, and Hotchner's backup gun was a revolver, which was given to him for self-defense. His main job was to keep all the bullets, and in the event of a firefight, he was responsible for using the loader to empty the bullets for everyone. Load the magazine.

After putting on his body armor and inserting the bulletproof plates, Jack jumped onto the side of the Raptor with Barrett in his arms, and then patted the car body hard. This time, Rossi was driving, and Hotchner was in the passenger seat.

Rossi drove very slowly. Firstly, because the windshield was broken into pieces and affected his field of vision, so it was directly removed. The speed was so fast that he couldn't open his eyes. Secondly, he was worried about encountering an ambush on the road again.

Putting on the wireless headset, Jack from behind the truck heard Red's excited chatter again.

"It feels like we are like 'The A-Team' (Dragon Agent Team), going to police evil, punish rape, and uphold justice."

(The old version of "The Secret Service" premiered in 1983, and its status in the history of old and American TV dramas is almost similar to that of "Journey to the West" to us)

"Shut up, Dr. Red!"

"Quiet!"

——

Half an hour later, the Raptor F150, with its lights turned off, slowly drove out of the forest road surrounding the mountains and came to an intersection, but it was still pitch black in front of it, and not even a single streetlight was on.

"Red, are you sure we're not going the wrong way?" Along the way, Jack used the night vision goggles on the Barrett to check the surrounding situation from time to time, but found nothing.

There are at least a few hundred residents in the town. Given the "simple" folk customs in the central and western regions, even if dozens of ogres enter, there won't be any movement at all.

It should be normal for gunfire to be loud and smoke to be everywhere at this moment.

"Most residents should be at the small lake at the foot of the west mountain right now, celebrating the 'Mountain Man Music Festival' with tourists."

Rhett replied, "There shouldn't be many people in the town now. I suspect that the ambush we encountered before was not aimed at people entering the town, but to prevent people from escaping and asking for help."

Jack was trying to recall the plot of the movie all the way, and it seemed that as Red said, the ogre massacred the entire police station while there was no one in the town in order to save an old man who helped them trap tourists.

But he really couldn't recall the specifics. After all, who would remember the plot after watching a low-cost plasma movie? It was just a matter of fun. The selling point of this kind of drama is nothing more than watching a vicious beauty fighting a monster.

There are a lot of bugs in the plot itself, who knows how it will evolve into this world.

Just like the group we encountered in New Mexico, it was the gold mine and the Eugene family. The number of ogres had increased countless times.

And in Jack's impression, although the deformed people in "Fatal Turn" look hideous and terrifying, they are not as disgusting as before. He doesn't know if other horror movies have been incorporated into it.

The Raptor continued to move forward slowly. When it passed a road sign, Rossi stopped the car again. Hotchner in the passenger seat pointed his flashlight at the road sign.

A human head was poked on the top of the street sign, blood was flowing down, and the words "Welcome to Meihu Town" were divided into two, and the atmosphere of terror was directly filled.
