The bullets in the restaurant were still pouring towards the door, and the people inside were shooting and approaching them. Fortunately, their marksmanship was not good, and the penetrating power of the bullets was not good. Tang Shuxing and the three men were hiding in front of the restaurant.
The side walls can completely avoid their attacks.
"Xing Er, we have to leave immediately!" Gu Huaiyi stared closely at the clouds of yellow mist that were gradually drifting in. When he raised his eyes, he could see a not-so-bright white light in the distance - there were people swallowed by the yellow mist and exploded.
.
"What should we do with the people here? Watch them die?" Tang Shuxing glanced at the detective and was forced back by the bullet. "They can't all be bastards with heinous crimes, right? There are always innocent people!"
"This is already a war!" Gu Huaiyi looked at him and said, "In war, there is no such thing as innocence!"
"Let's go! It's too late! We're already here!" Ji Kefeng looked at one of the yellow mist groups that was less than three meters away from them.
"Damn it!" Tang Shuxing shouted loudly, "Cease fire! Cease fire! The poison gas has arrived. If you don't want to die, you should cease fire and leave. I'm not lying to you! Run!"
The sound of gunfire gradually stopped, because many people in the restaurant also saw the clouds of yellow mist gradually drifting in, but there were still bold people who slowly stood at the window with guns and looked out cautiously. At the same time, some people asked:
"If that was poison gas, why didn't you run away?"
As he spoke, gunshots rang out again. When several brave men saw that Tang Shuxing and others did not fight back, they rushed to the door with guns. Tang Shuxing and others had no choice but to dodge to the other side of the wall outside the restaurant. At the same time,
The yellow mist also drifted to the door, and the gunmen who rushed out rushed directly into the yellow mist...
"Bang..." The guns in several people's hands fell to the ground, and they began to rub their faces with their hands, shouting "It's so cold" in their mouths. After passing by them, the yellow mist drifted towards the restaurant.
, when the yellow mist passed, Tang Shuxing and others and some people standing at the window saw soybean-sized abscesses on the faces of the gunmen who had been swallowed by the yellow mist.
"Poison gas! It's poison gas!" Someone at the window shouted after seeing clearly. He turned around and ran towards the inside of the restaurant. As soon as he shouted, the people around him immediately dispersed. Many people were knocked to the ground, including two people.
His arms and legs were trampled and broken by others.
"They are going to change, run!" Gu Huaiyi dragged Tang Shuxing to his feet and ran towards the other side of the street. Ji Kefeng followed closely behind him. As soon as he ran to the other side of the street, the people who were already kneeling at the door were already transparent.
It melted, and then circles of silvery-white light flashed out, burning a big hole directly at the door of the restaurant.
The people in the restaurant ran towards the back door. When the leader opened the back door, they found that there were several yellow mist groups floating up and down at the back door. These things seemed to be alive and conscious, squatting behind and guarding the restaurant.
People inside were surrounded.
When the people at the back door were stunned and gradually retreated, two of them pushed aside the crowd and rushed out, shouting at the same time: "Staying here is a dead end!"
But the moment the two people's bodies passed through the yellow mist, they froze and began to exclaim, "It's so cold." Then they rubbed the skin on their faces. Then they turned around and faced the people at the back door of the restaurant to ask for help.
At this time, those who were still alive stared at their bodies as they began to become translucent, then transparent, and then suddenly flashed with silvery white light...
Under the tree across the street, Tang Shuxing and the others looked at the streaks of white light flashing through the windows of the restaurant, knowing that everyone inside was dead. Just when they were about to leave, an explosion occurred in the restaurant, and the explosion started from the kitchen.
, continuous explosions began along the underground gas pipelines, and in less than a minute, the entire restaurant was reduced to ashes.
The three of them stood across the street and looked at the ruins of the restaurant that was still burning with thick smoke. After only ten seconds, the yellow mist slowly floated out from it again and began to wander around.
, hunting other living creatures, even stray cats and dogs are not immune.
"Have you noticed that the time for people who have been enveloped by that kind of yellow mist to change is shortened?" Tang Shuxing looked at the yellow mist floating around.
"Yes!" Ji Kefeng nodded and tightened his grip on the gun, "It has been shortened. The person I met at the Reading Hall in Philadelphia had at least several minutes of change, but here it is only 10 seconds at most."
Gu Huaiyi raised his feet and walked to the right: "In just 10 seconds, the pustules on the face appeared, the body became translucent to transparent, and then there was a silent explosion. It seems that the yellow mist that floated over was to some extent
There has been a mutation, but I don’t know if it’s man-made or caused by something I came into contact with.”
"Should we cross the river to the island now? It's getting dark now." Tang Shuxing turned around and looked in the direction of the river, but when he turned his head, he could see the helicopter flying there. Judging from the light of the searchlight,
At least three to five helicopters are searching along the river.
"Go to the river and check the situation." Gu Huaiyi turned around and ran towards the river. When the three of them ran to the river, they were stunned by the situation in front of them - the entire city opposite was completely shrouded in yellow mist.
, not only that, but the height of the yellow fog also climbed up, coming from the shrouded floors
Look, it's at least twenty meters high. And there are single clouds of yellow mist floating on the river. Although there are marine police search boats slowly passing by, the people on them are all wearing chemical protective suits, and no one dares to
Standing on the deck, they all stood in the cockpit with the door locked, looking outside with horrified eyes.
"It's tragic." Tang Shuxing put down the telescope, "We can't get across, at least in a short time. Although we can swim across, it's impossible not to be discovered."
"Master Ji, how long can you stay underwater?" Gu Huaiyi turned his head and asked Ji Kefeng, who was lying on one side of the low wall.
"I don't know. I don't have a chance to do more experiments. I guess there will be no problem in diving up to half the width of the river." Ji Kefeng replied, checking the gun in his hand, although in this case, the gun would probably not be of any use.
Tang Shuxing shook his head: "The plan to cross the river is on hold. If we are trapped on the island and face such a large-scale manhunt, we have no possibility of escaping. We can only wait until the US government completely blocks Philadelphia and the surrounding areas.
Let’s take action again.”
"Agree." Gu Huaiyi nodded and crawled backwards, "They can't find a solution to this yellow mist poisonous gas for a while, so they can only temporarily blockade these two cities."
"We have to find a place to hide first. We have to find a place where there is no one and where no one will go." Ji Kefeng looked around, "It seems that everywhere is dangerous now, even cats and dogs will become a
A hot bomb that could explode at any time."
"Only living things can breathe. Breathing things can change after inhaling the yellow mist. What about dead things?" Tang Shuxing looked at Gu Huaiyi and Ji Kefeng, "It seems that we can only go to places like funeral parlors or cemeteries.
Yes, that kind of place may be the safest place right now, because there are very few people there on weekdays."
Gu Huaiyi and Ji Kefeng nodded in agreement, turned around and sneaked into the city at night. Just as they left, a helicopter formation from the US chemical defense force flew in from the other side of the river, shuttled through the urban forest, and finally landed.
On the lawn next to the Reading Hall.
Because the intelligence sent back by the advance personnel showed that the yellow mist leaked from under the cracked road next to the Reading Hall, the chemical defense force had reason to suspect that the terrorists had placed relevant biological and chemical weapons in the sewers, but they could not
What is clear is what kind of biochemical weapon can continuously produce so much yellow poisonous gas.
"Groups C and D assisted the ground forces as planned, establishing a defense line within one kilometer of the surrounding area, while searching for and rescuing civilians who may still be alive. Let them each carry 2 to 3 gas masks, as long as they do not inhale the yellow mist.
It will not explode, but if civilians are found to inhale it, evacuate the area immediately." The on-site commander of the chemical defense force and other team leaders wearing chemical protective suits drove on the side of the road.
Brief meeting, "Group A and B are following me. Group B is on guard around the crack. Group A is following me down. The assault group of the ground forces has entered. We need to catch up with them. If any suspicious characters are found below."
, after the warning is ineffective, you can shoot directly, but you must be careful not to hit anything that may cause a secondary explosion. Do you understand?"
"Understood, sir!" The leaders of the other four groups nodded.
"Okay! Action!" The commander raised his hand and made a circle above his head. The leaders of the other four groups immediately ran away holding their rifles, each leading their own team members to the predetermined area.
The commander trotted towards the crack with a chemical weapons expert. Iron wire had been pulled up around the crack. Soldiers from the Army Special Forces with lights on their shoulders stood all around. The visibility in the yellow fog was too low.
It's so low that you can only see clearly about three meters in front of you.
"Sir! The commando team has entered. It's very deep down there. It's already deep under the underground sewer. There are not enough rope ladders, so you can only rappel down!" A second lieutenant from the Army Special Forces stepped forward and shouted loudly, because he was wearing a high-density gas mask.
If you don't speak loudly, the other party won't hear you at all.
The commander nodded and looked at the second lieutenant pointing to the iron pillar that was nailed to the ground and reinforced. There were ropes tied to the iron pillar. He turned to look at the chemical weapons expert beside him and asked: "You should have no problem, right?"
"I don't know!" The expert shook his head, "I have never received such training since I left Langley."
The second lieutenant of the Army Special Forces judged from the conversation between the two that the expert was from the CIA. He stepped forward and hung the iron buckle of the rope on the expert's waist, connected the auxiliary equipment, and then said loudly: "One
Hold the rope with one hand, and press the switch of the auxiliary device with the other hand. As long as you press it, it will automatically land downwards. When you need to stop, you only need to release your hand, do you understand?"
Looking at the dark crack below, the expert turned pale with fright, but still made an "ok" gesture with his hand. Then, with the help of the commander and the second lieutenant, he hung himself on the rope hook and the iron
On the side of the pillar. At the same time, the five chemical defense soldiers in Group A were also ready to rappel. After the commander pointed his finger down, he immediately pressed the button on the auxiliary device and slid down at an extremely fast speed.
"Check the communication again!" The commander waiting above pressed the intercom switch on his wrist, "Everyone is in continuous communication mode."
Subsequently, the soldiers in Group A reported their communication status one by one. After learning that there were no problems with the communication, the commander led the experts and slid down the rope as quickly as possible.
Although the bottom of the hole was dark and filled with that kind of yellow mist, which could almost be said to be invisible, he still closed his eyes hard and waited for the commander to say "stop" before he suddenly pressed the auxiliary button on his waist.
He asked himself to stop, but because of fear, he forgot to turn on the shoulder lamp, so he could only hang there and wait for the "rescue" of others.
"Untie him." The commander turned on all the refractor lights on his shoulders and helmet, and combined with the light sources from other soldiers around him, he could barely see clearly the expert hanging on one side who dared not move.
Two soldiers stepped forward and untied the expert, helped him open the instruments he was carrying, and handed them to him.
However, the expert sat down on the ground and kept panting. The other soldiers dispersed one after another, contacting the commando soldiers and keeping alert.
The commander came forward and squatted in front of the expert, pointed to the position under his mask and said: "Sir, there is an LCD display under your hood. It is very small, only as big as a watch. There is a percentage on it, you can see
?”
The expert looked down at him sideways, and then nodded.
The commander asked again: "What is the current number?"
"96%." The expert nodded, "Is this a digital display of oxygen content?"
"That's right! So if we want to live, we must return to this position when the oxygen content is at least 15%, and then go back along the rope, otherwise everyone will die. This yellow mist only needs to make one of us explode.
Everyone else will be burned completely!" The commander grabbed the expert, helped him up, and ordered other soldiers to continue moving forward.
The expert walked next to the commander and shined the light on his wrist on the ground. He found that the ground was very flat, but there were traces that looked like tanks had run over him. He immediately pointed to the ground and asked: "What is this? Artificial."
Excavated?"
The commander shook his head: "I don't know, we are just here to figure this out."
"Sir, the commando team has lost contact." The leader of Team A ran back from the front, "The front is very deep. We found the fluorescent sticks left by the commando team along the way, but the fluorescent sticks disappeared ten meters ahead, and there was yellow fog.
It’s getting thicker and thicker, and the light can’t shine through at all.”
"Try to contact again." The commander stopped, pulled out the pistol from his waist, handed it to the expert, asked him to hold it, and asked, "Can you use it?"
The expert nodded and pointed the gun forward. The commander shook his head and put his finger on the safety position: "It seems you don't know how. Remember, turn on the safety before shooting..."
As soon as the commander said this, a dazzling white light flashed in front of him. He realized that someone had inhaled the yellow mist explosion, and immediately pushed the expert to the wall. At the same time, he asked through the intercom: "Everyone in Group A reports their own
Location! Hurry!”
Immediately after, three people from Group A reported back. After listening, the leader of Group A stood to one side and looked ahead and said: "Sir, Hamill and Kane did not answer, I suggest -"
"Withdraw your suggestion, soldier." The commander made a gesture to follow him, and asked the team leader to take care of the experts, "We cannot retreat, and there is no way to retreat..." (To be continued.)
