Apocalypse Mutants Rise

Chapter 23 Dead Silence
"Ah woohoo!"

A zombie rushed towards the bearded man fiercely.If the distance is too close, it is difficult for the sniper rifle to reverse the muzzle to play a role.

At this time, the bearded man quickly picked up the short knife hanging on his waist, and slashed down at the moment when the zombie was almost about to bite him.

Blood spurted out, and the zombie was beheaded directly.

"Let's go! Follow me!"

As Xiao Qiang said, he swung the baseball bat and knocked down two zombies.

Then he pulled back a few steps and started trotting.

All the zombies in the elevator had rushed out.Xiao Qiang stepped forward to deal with a zombie blocking the elevator entrance. The bearded man finally picked up the pistol in the hands of the big man, and then all three of them quickly ran in.

"Woooo!"

A lot of zombies are still coming here.Liu Qian quickly pressed the button inside the elevator door, which was the code leading to the roof.

The elevator doors are slowly closing, and no zombies are allowed to join in at this time!

"boom!"

There was another loud gunshot, and the head of a zombie trying to jump in was directly exploded by the bullet.A smell of gunpowder filled the elevator.

Finally, with an electronic sound, there was a change in gravity under the feet, and the elevator slowly began to rise.

All three of them breathed a sigh of relief.

"Aren't you injured?" Xiao Qiang said, looking up and down at Liu Qian beside him.

"Don't look at me as incompetent, I'm not one of those weak little girls!" Liu Qian was a little annoyed, she was still holding the pistol tightly in her hand, she raised her head and looked at Xiao Qiang, then bit her lower lip again, "I'm fine..."

Indeed, just now Xiao Qiang kept Liu Qian behind.

On the other hand, the bearded man was still frowning, his face was full of sadness, and tears were already rolling in his eyes.

"Are you okay?" Liu Qian looked at him and asked.

The bearded man pursed his lower lip and kept nodding, his eyes flickering.

"He's my big brother..." the bearded man said.

Both Xiao Qiang and Liu Qian were startled.

"You two are brothers?" Liu Qian was a little surprised.

The bearded man continued to nod:
"We were always together when we were young. Later, I went to serve as a soldier, and he started a business and got involved in the society. I just came back last year."

"That……"

"Don't ask any more." Liu Qian just wanted to ask something more, but Xiao Qiang tore off the corner of her clothes and reminded her in a low voice.

Liu Qian also reacted quickly, and immediately fell silent and said nothing.

It is probably difficult for anyone to understand the bearded man's feelings now.Watching his relatives being torn apart by the zombies, he pulled the trigger and fired the bullet.

He only summed up the relationship between them in one short sentence, but Xiao Qiang could see that he didn't want to say anything more at the moment.More just calm in general.He needs peace.Even if only for a short moment.

The bearded man's tears welled up in his eyes. Even a soldier who is resolute and strong enough has flesh and blood and will be sad.

"Originally, he was about to get married. My sister-in-law is the female owner of a dumpling shop. I retired early. I didn't expect that this world would become like this." laugh.

The voice fell, and the elevator was completely silent.

Xiao Qiang frowned slightly.The apocalypse really changes everything. The irony is that when you find out that the world you used to complain about all day long is no longer there, you only think about how beautiful the past was...

I don't know whether he is dead or alive, Xiao Dong is also my eldest brother.The only relative.After the apocalypse, he disappeared without a trace, and even a corpse was not found, but Xiao Qiang dare not imagine after so many experiences.

"Everything will be fine!"

Suddenly a warm female voice came from the elevator, it was Liu Qian:

"When I thought I was going to die, someone rescued me. No matter how the world is, as long as you are still alive, live well."

Some clumsy words told the truth, but at the moment it was enough to add some warmth to the cold air mixed with the smell of death.

Xiao Qiang raised the corner of his mouth and looked at Liu Qian who was standing beside him.The bearded man kept nodding his head and took a deep breath.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, a huge shaking came from under the feet, which almost made people lose their footing.

Then the elevator seemed to be stuck, it kept decelerating, and then vibrated and shook, like an earthquake.

what happened?

All three of them were holding on to the wall. At this moment, even the lights in the elevator began to flicker non-stop.

"Tick! Tick~~~tick!"

Immediately afterwards, as if an alarm sounded, a red light on one side of the wall began to flash.

"what happened?"

"Stand firm!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

The elevator continued to seem stuck, its rising speed was getting slower and slower, and it kept stopping.

At this time, on the display screen composed of a string of LED lights on the front wall, there are strings of characters flashing and sliding repeatedly from left to right.

[The elevator backup power has reached its limit... The elevator's backup power has reached its limit...]

"What is this, what kind of backup power supply?"

"This kind of power supply has been basically popular since 2015." The bearded man quickly explained, leaning on the wall with one hand, "It is for emergency use of equipment after a power outage. Just like the current elevator."

"What now?"

"Bang!"

"Bang bang!"

The elevator kept jamming and stopping, making it difficult for people to stand firm.

"We have to go out..." Xiao Qiang said.

"But, this is still six or seven floors away from the top of the building!"

"We can only be trapped here when the backup power supply runs out." Xiao Qiang said quickly, then stepped forward and pressed the button to stop the elevator, and tightened the baseball bat in his hand, "Everything is ready!"

open!open!open ah!
Xiao Qiang kept muttering in his heart.If the remaining electricity in the end is not enough to open the door, it will be troublesome.

But this worry was quickly dispelled. After a few more vibrations under his feet, the iron box finally stopped, and then the two iron doors slowly opened...

"Tick! Tick! Tick..."

The sound of the alarm became weaker and weaker, until even the red lights began to dim, and finally there was no more sound.

All three tensed their nerves, paying full attention to the floor after the elevator burst open.

But in the face of all these unknowns, all he can see is darkness!
Xiao Qiang let out a long breath. After the elevator door opened, no zombies rushed over, but he couldn't see anything!
This floor was completely dark, with no light coming in, and nothing could be seen at all.And besides that, the creepy thing is... not even the slightest sound can be heard.

There was deathly silence on the floor.

When the elevator finally ran out of backup power and the sirens stopped, the last red lights dimmed until there was nothing left to see.

"Whoo~"

"Whoo~~~"

Breathing and heartbeat become obvious.The three of them couldn't even see each other.

Completely corroded by dark locks.

Silence, deathly silence...

The surroundings have completely lost their sense of security, and no one knows what is in the darkness, let alone where the threats will come from in the next second!

"Liu Qian?" Xiao Qiang whispered while holding the baseball bat tightly.

"I'm here."

The voice came from the left, Xiao Qiang felt a little relieved.

"What should I do, I can't see anything." Liu Qian said quickly in a low voice.

"Woo~~~"

"Did you hear any movement?" Xiao Qiang said with a trembling body.

"No, I can't hear anything." The bearded man said.

"You heard me wrong, don't scare me." Liu Qian kept leaning towards Xiao Qiang.

Sometimes the fight against the mind in the dark is more frightening than the walking dead.

"Absolutely not mistaken!" Xiao Qiang tensed his nerves, his attention was all on his ears, "Hush!"

All three of them fell silent.

"I really can't hear anything." The bearded man's tone was a little nervous.

"Don't..."

"Close!"

Before Liu Qian could speak, Xiao Qiang turned around and stopped him and her behind.

"here!"

"Ah!"

For a moment!He only heard a penetrating sound, and then blood splashed on his body, making people take a step back in shock!
"There's more here! Back off!"

"What? I..."

"Just do it! Quick!"

There was another series of chaotic sounds in the darkness. Something fell, there was a fist bump, and there was the sound of piercing blood.Liu Qian and the bearded man didn't know what was going on, every nerve was pulled, and they were completely alert in the dark!
"Shoot the window!"

"shot?"

"On the side you are facing!"

"Bang! Bang!"

The bearded man didn't say anything anymore, he pulled the trigger of the sniper rifle twice in a row, and the bullets with huge damage were sprayed out.

The first shot hit some kind of metal and made a sound of impact, and the second shot directly shattered a piece of glass.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa!"

Accompanied by the sound of glass breaking, a ray of light finally projected in through the gap.

The bearded man immediately raised his gun and fired a few more shots.

Then, the glass everywhere was shattered, and all the gaps let in light, projecting into the floor of this unknown place.Finally, it is no longer completely dark and nothing can be seen.

"Pfft!"

In the next second, Liu Qian and the bearded man stood there with their eyes wide open.

His eyes were full of astonishment!
I saw four or five corpses of zombies lying obediently on the ground in front of them. Their heads were all pierced, and the blood spilled on the floor and almost flowed to their feet...

Standing in front of him was Xiao Qiang who just let the two of them hide behind him!

He stretched out his left hand, the thumb and index finger had mutated into the black sickle shape again, this hand was holding the head of a zombie, and the arm was raised to lift the zombie high.The forehead has been pierced by Xiao Qiang's index finger.

"sudden."

With a muffled sound, Xiao Qiang let go of his hand and the zombie fell to the ground.

Xiao Qiang gasped heavily, turned his head and glanced at the two people behind him.

The left eye is already glowing red, struggling with its original color unsteadily.

What kind of reaction ability is he?
The bearded man was still astonished.

I couldn't see anything in the complete darkness just now, and I really didn't hear any sound.But Xiao Qiang noticed the zombies around him in that situation, and now it is actually the scene before him!

How to explain this?

"These zombies don't wear shoes at all, they are very good at hiding in the dark." Xiao Qiang exhaled and said, "This place can't stay for long, we have to find the stairs immediately!"

After regaining consciousness, the light that came through the glass gaps was finally able to see the surroundings.

There are also zombies staggering towards the three pieces of food.

It's just that it's extremely quiet...
