Chapter 62
The moon is red, but not as bright red as the one I saw yesterday.
The five people were so frightened that their souls flew out of their wits. They didn't care too much and started running with their heads buried.
On the wide plain, the infected body received the light, and the speed of movement became faster. The infected groundhog sprang out like a shooting star, squeaking, its front teeth erected like javelins, and shot towards Maji who was running ahead.
Even if it is strengthened, a groundhog is still a groundhog!
Markie held the steel fork in front of his face, and the infected groundhog hit the fork himself, and was thrown to the right by Markie.
After getting up, the impaled groundhog continued to chase them step by step.
With the blessing of Xiangen's magic, it is impossible for these little things to catch up with them. I am afraid that large infected zombies will appear on the road ahead, or all the ghosts in the pasture behind will run out to chase them.
The road ahead was unobstructed, but there were no zombies as big as cows or horses, only sporadic small infected zombies wandering around.
Xiang En looked back at the ranch many times. Fortunately, there was no strange movement in the ranch, and the monsters inside did not notice them.
The disappearance of the threat from the ranch relieved them of a little tension, but the next problem reappeared.
How can they get rid of the small zombie beasts chasing after them?
In order to save energy, Xiang En didn't dare to think too much, so he adjusted his formation.
Ma Qi opened the way in front, the two younger brothers stood on the left and right sides, and Andrea was behind, firmly protecting Xiang En in the middle.
The small zombie beasts gathered around were either kicked away or picked up by the steel fork, and their moving speed did not decrease at all. They ran at a faster speed than walking to save energy as much as possible.
There was still no movement in the ranch, and nothing bad happened. They ran for a long time, until the moon in the sky reached the highest point, and they didn't encounter too bad a situation.
The red light of the moon illuminates the road ahead. On the plain, the vast and terrifying road seems to have no end!
No matter how long they ran, the scenery still wouldn't change a lot.
Andrea looked back, under the red moonlight, there was a surging "black tide".
After hours of running, all the zombie beasts encountered along the road were startled, and they followed behind persistently, like hungry wolves that would never give up until they could eat meat.
At first, the zombie beasts would occasionally catch up with them and attack them, but after running for two hours, their speed slowed down, and many zombie beasts suddenly couldn't move and fell out of the team.
This let Andrea know that these are not undead creatures with endless physical strength, and she has a little more confidence in surviving.
Crack!
Ma Ji, who was running in front, stopped suddenly, and Xiang En, who was chasing behind, was also forced to stop. When he stopped, the others also stopped.
"Boss...boss!" Ma Ke panted, not daring to speak too loudly, but just stepped aside so that Xiang En could see clearly what was in front of him.
Tired and out of breath, Xiang En looked forward and saw a building complex at the end of his vision under the light of the red moon, which was larger than the small town he had just encountered.
It was a small city, and around the small city, strange birds flying all over the sky and large zombie beasts wandering in the "carnival", the picture was full of chaos and mystery.
Although there are buildings where several people can take refuge, the premise is that they can break through the blockade of monsters and sneak in quietly!
Now, they don't have the ability to go inside, everyone's mouth is dry and their eyes are dim.
It's completely unrealistic to kill in!
Xiang En looked left, looked right, and finally looked at the Kuroshio who was about to catch up behind him, pointed to the left side of the business road, and said, "Go left, go straight!"
Having determined their goal, the group of people quickly turned around, abandoning the gravel road that had been stepped on over the years, and stepped into an undeveloped area full of mud and grass.
The grass in the plain does not necessarily represent vitality, but also traps and dangers.
In the undulating grassland, there are countless puddles hidden. Once you step on the ground, your feet will sink into the mud, which will increase the physical exertion and slow down the speed of movement.
In order not to be torn apart by the monster, Xiang En could only make this dangerous decision.
While running, Xiang En rubbed out two pieces of bread with both hands and gnawed them. While recovering his magic power, he also recovered his physical strength.
In addition, he rubbed a piece of bread for Andrea and Markey.
They also know the magic of bread, even if the food in their stomachs churns and scratches their stomachs, they don't stop.
It is really helpless to go so deep into the "nowhere to go" grassland.
In this way, he walked all the way again, the speed did not decrease, and the zombie herd behind him could not keep up.
After entering the grassland without human beings, the number of zombie beasts encountered along the way has decreased a lot, perhaps because the zombie beasts covet the large amount of meat that live in groups?
This should be……
Puff!
About an hour later, they stepped into a puddle hidden in the grass, and their walking suddenly became deep and shallow.
As soon as the speed slowed down, Andrea turned her head nervously. At this time, the grass had covered her calves, and most of the zombies chasing behind her were small animals, and few of them were higher than the grass below the ground.
This creates a nasty situation where their field of view is restricted!
It is night now, and the light from the crimson moon has only reached the level where the outline and general shape can be seen clearly. Now that there is grass covering it, Andrea can only see the trembling green grass, and cannot accurately judge the zombies. How far did the beast chase.
Xiang En, who looked back a few times, also noticed this problem, and reminded Ma Ji to try to walk as fast as possible.
Ma Ji was also working hard to find the way, the steel fork in his hand was constantly inserted into the ground and pulled out again, fearing that he would suddenly step on the air.
Under intense urging, they managed to cross the puddle and climb up the low slope before being overtaken.
Just when several people breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that they would be fine after passing the puddle, a younger brother beside Ma Ji was suddenly attacked by a black shadow!
Swish!
Under the bright red night, Ma Ji watched helplessly as the black figure beside him took his little brother away at a speed that he couldn't see clearly.
The captured man couldn't help being frightened, and let out a series of screams, "Save... help! Boss Ma Ke! Boss Xiang En! Help me! Ahhh!"
He only had time to ask for help from the two bosses, but he couldn't wait for them to rescue him.
Xiang En stopped involuntarily. He saw a twist, no, carefully identify it, it was a boa constrictor, the body of which was slightly bigger than Andrea's waist!
The entwined body of the snake kept tightening, the sound of bones breaking and rubbing was creepy, and his screams disappeared...
"Go! Keep going!"
Sudden loss of one more person made Xiang En's heart heavy again.
The four of them turned their heads three times a step at a time, looking at the still entangled body of the snake, they once again felt a sense of sorrow for the death of a rabbit and a fox.
After running for several hundred meters, Andrea looked back, and was surprised to find that the number of zombies behind her had decreased by more than 90%!
She told Xiang En about this discovery, and Xiang En took time to think, guessing that the python just now might be a living creature, not a zombie beast!
I have frostbite on my feet, and my scalp is numb due to itching, and this itching only occurs between 8:00 and 12:00 in the evening, it's numb!
