Yali's final voice caused the commotion to spread in Liu Yi's well-trained team, and there was brief chaos in the public channel. Liu Yi himself is not calmer than his team, but as the captain, he must also pretend to be calm.
At this moment, the power armor on the body becomes the most solid support. Although the DPS-09 police sniper power armor looks old in today, it is the model that he has the most contact time and uses in many years. He knows all the advantages disadvantages of this model, leading him to maximize the function.
"Don't be nervous," he felt relieved, he forced himself to speak. The leader sometimes had to convince his subordinates to believe something he didn't believe in. "Yali has always been a coward. Mostly it was a white coat hanging on the balcony opposite him. That kid could be fainted by the corpses."
His response was a few dry laughs, worse than crying. Well, in this atmosphere, it is a bit difficult for them to relax. Liu Yi took a deep breath. The DPS model has no air filtration and temperature adjustment system. The night air sucks into the lungs like a sharp blade, stabbing the chest, but it can help calm the mind at this moment. After confirming that the weapon was operating normally, he walked into the town along the road.
A veritable silence.
Looking at the corpses lying on both sides of the main road, Liu Yi was numb. The town had been quiet when the team arrived, and it should have been abnormal. However, his attention was all on the upcoming transaction at the time, and he swept the town several times without noticing the abnormality.
Slowly progressing to the center of the town, where the only two avenues meet, he did realize how quiet it was. There was no human voice at all, and even the wind stopped. Only a TV that didn't know where babbled, making it extremely crippling at night.
The dead are beyond imagination. On the sidewalks, in the shops, by the river, as far as they can see, there are stumbling men, women, and children everywhere. Isn't anyone still alive? No, there is at least one, the one Yali saw. Who can scare the experienced secret service team?
"Invisible," he lowered his voice subconsciously, "have you found anything over there?"
"Corpses," the answer was simple, "except for the corpses, everything is normal."
Invisible is always so calm and unreasonable. The corpses are scattered all over the town, and only an understatement is enough. Speaking of which, what was the cause of death for so many townspeople falling on the streets? Liu Yi stopped. He leaned over to look at a deceased person. There was no obvious trauma. He looked calm and looked like he was asleep. Maybe this person didn't realize that death was coming at the last moment. Checking several corpses in succession, the situation was exactly the same.
Everyone seemed to have died at the same moment, otherwise, they would have to find a few horrified faces. Bacterial? Virus? Toxin? Thoughts were overturned one by one. In his cognition, there is nothing that can make death fall on so many people while still being so fast and so quiet.
Apple's voice sounded on the public channel: "Boss, we found three pickup trucks on the side of the highway. The car is the drug dealer we are waiting for tonight."
"Are they dead too?"
"Yes, there are eleven people in total. Weapons, drugs, and money are put in the car in good order. They must have not gone through a battle. The engine of a car was on and the fuel tank was almost full. They didn't get there long."
"Understood. Leave one person to watch and the others keep searching."
It seems that the scope of death is not limited to Baishou Town. The engine was on, but the fuel tank was full, indicating that not only did they not only arrive, but they also did not die. That being the case, why are the team members who ambush at the side of the town all right? Liu Yi squeezed his gun, and the bullet was loaded.
After a while, invisibly said on the public frequency: "There is good news."
"what's the situation?"
"I found Yali, on the only basketball court in town. He was shot diagonally in the forehead, but the bullet was stuck in the helmet, and only his forehead was injured. The bullet is an unseen model, but it must be a sniper rifle. "
"Is the Yali seriously hurt?"
"Abrasions. He will heal even if left alone."
"I'll come here now. Everyone pays attention to covert, and if the sniper is found to report immediately." While searching for cover, Liu Yi ordered. What kind of good news is this, he can only secretly complain.
Yali actually sniped. Fortunately, the helmet of the power armor was strong enough that he escaped. But how is it possible? There are not many locations suitable for sniping near Baishou Town. Most of them are in the mountains selected by Liu Yi. From there, the location of Yali at that time is not visible. As for the mountains on the opposite side, the nearest distance is more than three kilometers from the town. Liu Yi first excluded them when surveying the terrain. In the other directions, there are roads and flat grounds, and you can't escape the monitoring of equipment.
Is the other party in this small town?
The sniper fired only one bullet, presumably waiting for more prey to be hooked. Cold sweat oozes from his palm, and the deadly enemy is lurking in the darkness around him. He will attack again without knowing when, and he can't even find where the bullet came from. The only way is to observe where the Yali fell and look for possible shooting directions. My own model is older than Yali, so I can't pin my hopes on the protection of power armor.
The public channel returned to silence. Under the threat of sniping, the dead around him became even more terrifying. Every wall seemed to be watching him, like a hideous living creature, his hairs were standing upright with inexplicable horror. Baishou Town was originally very small. According to the map entered in advance, he passed through an alley, and there was only one street away from the basketball court. He saw Invisible them scattered and hidden around. There are sights in the rooms on both sides, but Liu Yi always feels that it is impossible, there is no reason, just the instinct of being a sniper.
Ta, ta, ta, the footsteps came from behind, at first it was very light and far away, but gradually approaching, it sounds especially strange in the silent night. Power Armor couldn't make such footsteps. It was the person Yali saw. Liu Yi turned around, and the figure in white just appeared in the alley.
In a moment, Liu Yi only felt the chill flowing down his back. Knowing that the person who could scare Yali must be terrible, he had already been mentally prepared, he still held his breath for a while and did not dare to breathe. Except for a white coat, there is nothing on the thing that looks like a human body. What is exposed is not the skin, but the charred flesh. The knotted blood vessels arch around like an earthworm, and the slimy liquid is mixed. With blood, water can't help dripping as I walk.
The most frightening thing was his head, almost half of it remained. Through the night vision goggles, Liu Yi could clearly see the bright red brain in the gray. It was a zombie in Resident Evil... The target of the bullet was originally this "person", but for some reason, he suddenly had such a strange idea.
"You can't escape..." the "person," said, with a voice like leaking bellows, "They will come in two months, no one can escape..."
"Who?" Liu Yi asked.
The man took out a box the size of a power armor glove from his body and panted. The man said: "The sniper has already left, and you don't need to be afraid... His goal is not you... Take it... All information is on it... The time is coming... Take it!"
Liu Yi took it subconsciously, finding the box light. The person in front of him suddenly yelled like a flashback and then fell over without making a sound.
