Chapter 668 Super Fungus

I saw many corpses lying in the open room!

These corpses were a strange charcoal black color, and the clothes on their bodies had long been rotten and turned into strands of scraps of cloth.

However, these corpses did not rot and turn into skeletons. Instead, they were like shriveled old wax meat, and the corpses were also covered with a thin layer of light cyan hair.

The room was also filled with a formalin-like smell and an indescribable fishy smell.

Su Yuan endured his nausea and conducted a visual inspection and found that there were at least hundreds of corpses in the room.

Inside the room, there were several destroyed machines and metal parts scattered on the floor.

Su Yuan took a closer look and saw that the several destroyed machines were actually electrical units.

On one side of the motor unit, there are two large metal cans that look like oil storage tanks.

Su Yuan could tell that this room should be the motor room of the Special Biology Experimental Laboratory, but why were there so many corpses in strange ways here?

Just when Su Yuan was confused, Lan Qingling's voice suddenly came from outside: "Brother, are you okay in there?"

"I'm okay!"

Su Yuan responded quickly.

"Then can Sister Bai Ying and I go in?"

Lan Qingling asked again.

"Uh...you guys come in!"

Su Yuan thought for a while and then responded like this.

Because Su Yuan could not figure out the cause of death of these strange corpses, he wanted Lan Qingling and Yu Baiying to come in to identify and analyze them, maybe there would be clues.

Lan Qingling and Yu Baiying entered the open room together. When their portable flashlights shone in, they were both startled.

"Ah! Why are there so many strange corpses here?"

Lan Qingling exclaimed, her face turned pale, but she was not scared away.

Yu Baiying was quite surprised, but did not feel scared. Instead, she said: "These corpses look very strange!"

"yes!"

Su Yuan said: "These corpses are completely different from the skeletons we found before. They must have been dead for a long time, but they did not rot. Instead, they turned into strange mummies. I don't know what caused it..."

Lan Qing carefully observed these strange corpses, then she pointed at one of the corpses and said to Yu Baiying beside her: "Sister Baiying, please use a bayonet to cut open the neck of this corpse and show me."

Yu Baiying nodded, then used the Meiji 30-style bayonet in his hand to aim the blade at the neck of the corpse and cut it.

The sharp blade quickly cut open the corpse's neck, revealing a section of cervical vertebrae and dark gray flesh.

The strange thing is that there are some tiny silky insects inside the cervical vertebrae!

These bugs were as thin as hair and charcoal black. When the cervical vertebrae were cut open by the bayonet and exposed to the air, they began to squirm slowly.

"Ah? What kind of insect is this? It can actually move!"

Yu Baiying was greatly surprised, because these corpses had been dead for at least several decades, and it was incredible that the parasites in the corpses were still alive.

"These are probably not bugs, but a type of fungus."

Lan Qingling suddenly said this.

"Fungi?"

Yu Baiying was stunned when she heard this and muttered: "Is there such a big fungus?"

"There are very few fungi of that size in nature, so I suspect these are artificially cultivated fungi."

Lan Qingling said this.

Yu Baiying was stunned. She suddenly thought of something: "Could these fungi be cultivated in this special biological laboratory?"

"Probably!"

Lan Qingling nodded, looking at the worm-like fungi that were constantly wriggling, with a look of surprise on her face: "Huh? These fungi... are actually growing!"

Hearing what Lan Qingling said, Su Yuan and Yu Baiying hurriedly took a closer look, and sure enough they found that the fungi as thin as hair had actually grown a bit.

"These fungi grow so fast!"

Yu Baiying couldn't help but exclaimed.

"They should have been in a dormant state, but when they encountered the air, they woke up and frantically absorbed nutrients from the corpses, which is why they grew so quickly."

Su Yuan came to this conclusion while observing.

"Big brother is right! These fungi... are terrible!"

Lan Qingling agreed with the conclusion of Su Yuan's analysis.

At this moment, the flesh of the corpse was like a sponge absorbing water, quickly absorbing the wriggling fungi, and they quickly disappeared.

"Huh? What's going on?"

Seeing this strange scene, the three of them were all surprised.

Suddenly, the two arms of the corpse shook unconsciously.

The three of them were startled at the same time, and then took a few steps back at the same time. After all, the body that had been dead for many years suddenly moved, which could easily startle people.

Immediately afterwards, the corpse suddenly climbed up from the floor, waving its arms and legs randomly, hitting other corpses nearby.

The bodies that had been hit were split open one after another, and wriggling black fungi appeared inside.

These fungi grew rapidly after encountering the air, then absorbed the nutrients from the corpse and controlled the movement of the corpse.

In just about two minutes, all the corpses in the room got up one after another.

Moreover, as soon as these corpses got up, they first waved their limbs randomly, and then walked towards the three of them as if they had discovered the target.

The movement speed of these corpses was not very fast, but they were not slow either. They bared their teeth and claws to press towards the three of them.

One of the corpses suddenly accelerated and pounced on the nearest Lan Qingling.

Lan Qingling was startled and hurriedly ran behind Su Yuan.

Da da da…

Su Yuan picked up the Type II submachine gun in his hand and fired at the corpse.

A round of bullets hit the corpse, leaving more than a dozen holes, and the skin and flesh were torn open, but not a drop of blood flowed out.

After being shot, the corpse fell to the ground, but soon struggled to get up and rushed towards Su Yuan again.

Su Yuan frowned and kicked the corpse in the head.

Bang!

The corpse's head suddenly shattered into pieces like an exploding watermelon, kicked by Su Yuan's powerful and heavy kick.

But the headless corpse was still rushing forward!

Su Yuan couldn't help but be shocked. He suddenly realized that the corpse should be controlled by that strange fungus. Even if it lost its head, it could still move.

So Su Yuan used a flying palm to repel the body that rushed towards him, then pulled Lan Qingling and rushed out of the room.
