Chapter Sixty-Five: Surprise Change
Hank ultimately failed to commit suicide.
Not just because there were no bullets in the gun, but more importantly, he found that the wound on his arm actually started to heal!
Although the speed was very slow, the itching sensation coming from the wound and the fact that the wound had scabbed for a while still convinced Hank that some changes that he was unaware of had already occurred in his body.
And he didn't know whether this change was a good thing or a bad thing.
But one thing is for sure, he might, might not turn into a zombie!
Although it is only a possibility, it is still worth Hank's own life as a bet to determine what happened to him.
And now what he needs to do is - eat!
Just a burst of exercise made my stomach, which was finally full of food, hungry again.
How many survivors are there in the world?
I'm afraid no one can be sure of this.
But one thing that is certain is that those who have gathered together to form survivor bases in order to survive have always been under the surveillance of the Umbrella Company.
And they are also the key targets of the umbrella company.
Compared with small bases consisting of only three or five people, organizations with dozens or even hundreds of people are easier to target!
It only takes a little guidance to cause a wave of zombies and drown everything!
The town where Hank often searches for supplies.
The group of corpses that had been wandering aimlessly on the street began to move.
If someone were here, they would be able to see a tall monster among the corpses, with a sack covering his head and several long and thick nails nailed on it, and holding a giant ax in his hand.
And this monster deliberately made noise along the way to guide the movement of the corpses, leading the corpses towards the survivors' base.
This kind of monster is a biological weapon produced by the Umbrella Company and used to perform various tasks.
And they are the best tools to break through the gates of those bases.
Under its giant axe, even the strongest iron door will deform.
If you want to deal with such monsters, unless you use powerful weapons, such as heavy machine guns or rocket launchers, it will be difficult to kill them!
Nowadays, among the survivor bases around the world, there are only a handful of bases with this kind of firepower.
Of course, this kind of base will be taken care of by the umbrella company.
When the time comes to target those bases, it will not just be this kind of biological weapon that will be deployed.
"Look, what is that?"
Soon, the people on sentry duty at the base noticed the tide of corpses slowly approaching like a tide in the distance.
In the tide of corpses, even the two-meter-tall ax man holding a giant ax became inconspicuous.
Even if it is just a tide of corpses in a small town, when they gather together and rush in a certain direction, the sense of oppression is still frightening.
After discovering the tide of corpses, the entire base fell into panic.
Most people want to escape.
And facing the zombie tide, running away is indeed the most correct choice.
But the question is, where are they going to escape?
Where can I escape?
What's more, can they escape?
We are already far away from the town here. If we try to escape again, we can only escape into the mountains.
But in this case, facing zombies that don't tire, they will soon be overtaken.
And how can they survive in the deep mountains?
They didn't have much time to hesitate.
After discovering the approaching tide of corpses.
Some people possessing guns and vehicles immediately fled with a vehicle full of supplies.
As for where they fled to, they were not sure.
In less than half an hour, all the combat-effective people in the base were gone, leaving only those who were abandoned and those who did not want to leave.
Let alone such a few people right next to each other, even if all the people in the base were put together, they would not be able to stop the zombie tide.
Therefore, when the zombie tide approached, except for the initial burst of gunfire, the entire base was occupied by the zombie tide. The whole process did not even take more than ten minutes!
············
Hank, who was hunting, suddenly turned around.
Just now, he smelled a strong smell of blood.
This bloody smell is not like the smell of blood flowing out after death of humans or beasts, but more like the smell of decay after a large number of creatures have been dead for a long time.
He is very familiar with this smell, or in this apocalypse, no one is unfamiliar with it.
That's the smell of zombies!
But the question is, how come there are so many zombies here?
Such a strong smell would never have been possible without more than a thousand zombies.
etc!
Hank suddenly had a guess.
Could it be said that a zombie wave broke out?
Having been around the doomsday for so many years, Hank naturally knows that once a zombie discovers a living person, it will pounce on the living person and then follow the living person. Even if it leaves his field of vision, it will not change its direction.
Therefore, when they return to the base, they will pay attention to whether there is a tail behind them.
Could it be that someone was accidentally followed by zombies and triggered the entire zombie horde?
Hank suddenly realized that the base might have fallen!
With the defense strength of the base, even an attack by a hundred zombies may fail, let alone a small town's zombies!
No, he must go and have a look!
But Hank, who had just taken two steps, hesitated.
Is it really appropriate for me to go back as I am now?
After the wound became infected, it didn't take long for Hank's body to mutate.
First of all, the parts that came into contact with the wound, the arms and calves, all underwent changes that made Hank's hair stand on end.
His arms and legs actually grew a dense layer of scales!
These scales are dark black as a whole, very fine, and they seem to have good defense power!
Over time, these scales begin to grow outward from near the wound.
By now, his left arm and two calves were covered in scales, and even his left hand and feet were covered in scales, turning into sharp claws and toes like a beast.
The feet had changed so much that the shoes were even bursting.
If he hadn't retained his sanity until now, he was very sure that "I am who I am" and that nothing had affected his mind.
Hank would have committed suicide a long time ago.
With things like this now, if they encounter humans, they will probably draw their guns and shoot immediately.
This was also the reason why he hesitated to go back and take a look.
And, to be honest, he didn't have much affection for that base.
The reason why he stayed there was simply because staying there was a better place to have a life and survive in this doomsday place.
"Forget it, let's go take a look."
The encounter with the corpse tide at the base was just a guess after he smelled the fishy smell with his keener sense of smell, and did not see it with his own eyes.
