Chapter 501 Monsters in the Tunnel
The only light source in the car was the emergency light located beside the door that the man turned on after entering. The dim red light rendered the entire car into a disturbing blood color.
Qi Lin and Dahan dared not act rashly. No one knew whether the monster above his head would suddenly tear open the steel mesh and iron sheets on the top of the carriage and jump into the carriage.
The train was still telling the driving in the tunnel, but at this moment, except for the friction between the wheels and the metal tracks and the sharp whistling of the wind blowing through the windows, there were only three extremely depressing breathing sounds.
The two originated from Qi Lin and the Dahan, while the third originated from the top of their heads.
"Puchi!"
Without warning, a sharp claw about ten centimeters long suddenly penetrated the iron sheet at the top of the car and appeared in the field of vision of the two.
This claw is extremely sharp, with a small barb at the front end. A row of sharp serrated teeth extends from the tip of the claw to the end. In the gaps of the serrated teeth, there is a lot of rotten meat.
The two looked at each other and did not attack, but took a step back together.
The cabin of this green-skinned car is very thin. Not to mention the sharp claws of mutant creatures, even if you use a Type 54 pistol to shoot at the cabin, the bullet can easily penetrate it.
But just stabbing a piece of claws in does not mean that the monster can enter the car - compared to the fragile iron sheet that makes up the car, the protective net welded with steel bars is the real barrier.
Qi Lin bent slightly, holding the 56-type triangular military spear in his hand. With his strength, he could easily pierce the military spear from the front until it had no handle. However, such injuries were not even possible for many mutant creatures to reach an instant fatality.
Faced with the dying counterattack of mutant creatures, even the most experienced hunters must be treated with caution.
The claws that penetrated the top of the car were retracted and a circular hole with an inch diameter was left on the car. Unfortunately, from Qi Lin's angle, he could not see anything.
"Tick, tick--"
Just as Qi Lin was wondering why this monster hadn't continued to tear the car, a faint and strange sound came from above, and it sounded like something was dripping on the roof of the car.
Is it blood? This monster is injured?
"Tick, tick...swish-"
Accompanied by the "tick" sound, there is another stranger sound, which is like throwing effervescent tablets into the water...
No! This is the sound when a strong acid reacts with a metal. The dripping on the car is not blood at all, but an extremely corrosive acidic substance!
As if to confirm Qi Lin's guess, several irregular holes were quickly eroded by this substance on the top of the car. A drop of turbid liquid leaked out of the hole and landed on the floor of the car. Many tiny foam immediately emerged. Soon, this small drop of liquid eroded a small hole into the floor spliced with patterned steel plates.
"Damn, this monster is using this thing to corrode the steel bars!"
The big man immediately reacted, raised his hunting rifle, and pulled the trigger to the roof of the car!
"Bang!!"
With a loud bang, dozens of steel balls shot out from the barrel, instantly piercing through the roof of the car and hit the monster.
"hiss--"
The monster on the roof of the car made a scream that was enough to tear the eardrums, and a creepy and harsh sound rang out. The monster under attack quickly tore the iron sheet on the top of the car, and then leaned his upper body into the car-
After seeing the true appearance of the monster, the big man and Qi Lin both took a breath.
It was a human upper body, shoulders, upper arms, protruding clavicle and even chest ribs, which were almost no different from humans, but there was a conical head similar to a mole on its neck.
On this conical head, there are many cracks irregularly divided, each crack is the mouth of the monster, covered with fine and sharp teeth.
Those extremely corrosive acidic liquids are saliva secreted from these many mouths.
"Damn, what is this?!" The big man exclaimed, but the movement in his hand did not pause, and he immediately pulled the second trigger of the double-barrel hunting rifle.
"Bang!"
The shotgun fired again, but what was shot from the second barrel was not dense steel balls and iron sand, but a single-shot single-headed bullet!
The single-headed bullet hit the monster's head. The huge kinetic energy attached to the bullet directly tear off a large piece of flesh and blood with many sharp teeth and glands from the monster's head - this shot almost knocked off a quarter of the monster's head!
Logically speaking, any creature who suffers such a heavy blow, even if it does not die on the spot, would lose its combat ability instantly. However, after losing a quarter of its head, this monster became more violent, regardless of the sharp iron sheet on the edge of the break, cutting out a series of dripping wounds on its body, and desperately crawling into the carriage.
"Fuck! What the hell is this!" The man was shocked and quickly retreated to the edge of the carriage, and hurriedly opened the barrel of the shotgun, exited the empty shell, and loaded new bullets into the barrel.
Before the bullets of the shotgun were loaded, the monster with a conical head as a drill bit had completely penetrated into the carriage and landed on the floor of the carriage with a thud.
It was not until this time that they could see the full picture of the monster.
Apart from the drill head with no facial features and only many bloody mouths, the part below the monster's neck is not much different from that of humans. There is even a pair of dirty and broken jeans on the monster's lower body that are almost mixed with mud.
This monster... was supposed to be a human...
But now, after being subjected to radiation mutation, this guy should have been infected with some foreign genes of mutated organisms, plus viruses that have completely mutated due to radiation... It has completely become something that has nothing to do with humans.
Where there were originally fingers and palms, only a pair of thick, long and sharp claws were left. In the exposed areas such as chest, shoulders, and back, there were fine black scales embedded in the flesh and blood. Qi Lin noticed that although the first shot fired by the man hit the monster's chest with blood and blood, it was still intact in the place protected by scales.
"These scales... should have protection capabilities no less than ceramic inserts..."
The monster that jumped in from the roof of the car stood between the big man and Qi Lin, and a pair of them emerged from their jeans, and the scaled tail was dragged behind it, constantly slapping the floor of the car.
The monster had no eyes, but the big man felt that it was staring at it, and he couldn't help but panic in his heart. His hands holding the bullet trembled. The deer bullet with a transparent plastic shell filled with steel balls fell to the ground and rolled to the monster's feet.
"..." The man cursed in his heart, and quickly reached out his hand to the bullet belt in front of his chest, trying to take out another bullet.
