Doomsday Highway: I can be infinitely enhanced
Chapter 14 Crab-faced Man
The sudden narration made Su Xing's heart skip a beat.
Narration doesn't appear out of nowhere.
But what puzzled Su Xing was that it had been more than a day since he left Qingxi Town, so how did the mysterious rice field reappear?
At this time, the convoy was more than 100 kilometers away from Qingxi Town. Could the rice paddies possibly grow legs and catch up with them?
"Wait...a glutton?"
Su Xing suddenly thought of the plump crabs in that rice paddy.
Those crabs weighed over a pound each, and were frighteningly large.
However, after discovering the abnormality in the rice paddy, Captain Hu ordered all the crabs to be thrown away and forbade anyone in the convoy to eat them.
But no one can guarantee that no one is secretly keeping crabs.
These are plump and delicious crabs!
They're a rare food in the apocalypse... who knows, someone might get greedy and steal a few.
Su Xing recalled seeing a few people sneaking off to cook at the edge of the camp in the evening.
"hiss……"
Su Xing quickly crawled back into the car and peered out the window at the bus.
Under the crimson moon, four figures walked side by side, their movements stiff.
Strangely, the heads of those people were unusually large, and there were vaguely visible tentacles distributed around their heads.
Even from a distance of several dozen meters, Su Xing couldn't see her face clearly.
Suddenly, the group turned around, and the moonlight shone directly on their faces, illuminating them clearly.
The moment I saw her face clearly, my awakened heart pounded.
No, that's not a human face at all!
Where a human head should have been on the neck, a huge blue crab was abruptly replaced.
The crab's eyes are on the top of its head, the crab's shell replaces the human face, and ten crab legs grow strangely around the face, sending chills down one's spine.
The people parasitized by the crab were completely unaware of what was happening to them and were still urinating under the tree.
"Something...abnormal!"
"I'm awake!" she blurted out, then shook Su Yan awake.
"Huozi, wake up! Wake up!"
"Something's wrong at the camp!"
Su Xing quickly woke up his younger brother, but when Su Yan saw the strange group of people, he was startled and instinctively tried to start the car and run away.
"Don't!"
Su Xing quickly stopped him, saying:
"Don't make any noise, or we'll attract them and we'll be in big trouble!"
"It's still quite far from us, let's see how the people on the bus handle it first!"
Su Xing's idea was simple: better to die than to die himself.
The situation is currently unknown, and it would be bad if the engine noise attracted those "crab-faced men".
The bus is close to the crab-faced people, so if the convoy gets chaotic later, we can take advantage of the chaos to drive away.
"good……"
Su Yan swallowed hard, his foot ready to floor the accelerator at any moment.
The two brothers stared intently at the four crab-faced men dozens of meters away, not daring to make a sound.
About a minute later.
After the four crab-faced men finished using the toilet, completely unaware of what was happening, they prepared to return to the bus like normal people.
Finished!
Upon waking, his breathing faltered.
What terrifying thing will happen once the four anomalies return to the bus?
There is a high probability that the entire bus, with forty or fifty people on board, will be wiped out!
The chaos that erupts at that time could very well affect the two brothers.
Just as the crab-faced people were about to board the bus, the situation took an unexpected turn.
Su Xing steeled his resolve and whispered:
"Huozi, give me the walkie-talkie!"
Su Xing turned on the walkie-talkie and shouted:
"An anomaly has occurred on bus number one!"
"Attention everyone! Bus number one is experiencing an anomaly!"
Su Xing spoke quickly, calling out twice before falling silent.
The convoy consisted of four SUVs and two buses, each equipped with a walkie-talkie.
It facilitates communication among the team members regarding road conditions, etc.
In most cases, the walkie-talkies were used by two superhumans, especially Captain Hu, who knew the route.
Now, Su Xing suddenly spoke up to remind them, hoping to attract the attention of the superhumans in the convoy.
Old Hu was the first to react.
Old Hu was the most timid man; he practically slept with one eye open.
In less than two seconds, the headlights of Old Hu's SUV came on, and three figures emerged from the vehicle.
A man in his thirties and a teenage girl, both holding crowbars.
As for Old Hu himself, he was holding a gun.
Fang Yuan also got out of the car, accompanied by two of his men.
He didn't want to get close to the bus, but after gripping the gun in his hand, he seemed to gain some confidence.
The group slowly made their way toward the bus.
Halfway there, a sharp scream suddenly erupted from inside the bus:
"ah--"
"Monster! There's a monster!"
Inside the bus at this moment.
Those who were awakened by the noise could see, by the moonlight, the four crab-faced men who had entered the bus.
His lips trembled, and he pointed at the crab-faced man, stammering:
"Monster! The monster's in!"
In just a few seconds, all the dozens of people on the bus woke up.
His body trembled as he stared intently at the crab-faced man standing at the car door.
The four crab-faced men with crab heads seemed completely unaware of their transformation and the fact that the monsters the people around them were talking about were themselves.
The four crab-faced men also looked terrified and scurried into the corner behind the car.
This sudden movement terrified the people hiding behind the car, who frantically tried to dart away and keep their distance.
Only four crab-faced men were left standing at the back of the bus, bewildered.
"Uncle Zhang... I, I'm Xiao Li!"
The crab-faced man looked puzzled and asked a question, only to find that his voice was extremely hoarse and he was speaking haltingly.
But they couldn't care less about anything else; they only focused on one thing:
"Why are you all avoiding me?"
"It's me, Xiao Lin, Uncle Zhang! I shared a cookie with you the day before yesterday..."
No matter how the four crab-faced men explained, with their crab heads, no one dared to approach them.
Uncle Zhang, who was in charge of cooking, swallowed hard and pointed at the group, saying:
"Monsters, you are all monsters!"
The four crab-faced men didn't understand Uncle Zhang's meaning and rushed forward to try to explain.
No one else cared about anything else; they all squeezed towards the door and jumped off the bus as if they were escaping.
In the chaos, he knocked over several women and stepped on them a few times.
The person who was trampled down ignored the pain and scrambled off the bus.
The scene became chaotic at one point.
The four crab-faced men were completely bewildered and even reached out to help the person who had been knocked down.
Upon seeing the crab's head so close, the woman who had been helped up fainted again.
Four crab-faced men got off the car and desperately tried to explain, their language skills seemingly deteriorating rapidly, as they spoke haltingly:
"I, we... are not monsters."
"Uncle Zhang, Brother Li, it's me..."
No matter how the four explained, wearing crab heads only made the scene more bizarre.
At this moment, Hu Dong and Fang Yuan approached with their men, and the dozens of survivors quickly hid behind them.
It seems that only those who are extraordinary can bring them some peace of mind when faced with anomalies.
As for the four crab-faced men, they grasped at straws and desperately tried to explain:
"Captain Hu, Captain Fang... hurry and tell them!"
"We are not monsters, we are human beings!"
Hu Dong looked at the four people with crab heads on their heads, swallowed hard, and said calmly:
"Are you Liu, Li, and a few others?"
"Yes! It's us!" The crab-faced man was excited when he saw that Hu Dong recognized them.
Hu Dong stared intently at the crab-faced man, and seeing that they also seemed unaware of what had happened, he tentatively asked:
"Oh! So it's you... This, this is all a misunderstanding!"
"Can the four of you get in the car first?"
Hu Dong had confirmed that the four people were not human, but he dared not make any rash moves.
The four crab-faced men are not aggressive at the moment. If we can trick them into getting into the car and then escape, that would undoubtedly be the best outcome.
The four men with crab-like faces were skeptical, but got into the car at Hu Dong's urging.
Fang Yuan, gripping the gun, couldn't help but ask:
"Uncle Hu, what's the deal with those people?"
Hu Dong shook his head and said:
"It seems they still don't know what happened..."
"Unload the supplies from the bus before they realize what's happening."
It is extremely bizarre and unpredictable; some people become monsters without even realizing it.
Hu Dong whispered to the dozens of survivors:
"Everyone, don't talk to them! Unload your supplies from the bus and get on the other bus!"
Despite their fear, dozens of people boarded the bus again.
Logically speaking, life is far more important than supplies at this time, but Captain Hu had no choice.
The bus involved in the accident was carrying most of the convoy's supplies, and it would take another ten days or so to reach the next supply depot.
If the supplies aren't unloaded, half the convoy will starve.
"Huozi, keep an eye on Captain Hu's car. We'll follow behind him."
Su Xing gave a reminder, his palms already sweating, his eyes fixed on the slightest movement of the bus.
At this moment, the four crab-faced men were already suspicious and peered out of the bus window to see what was happening below.
Dozens of people, some of whom were brave enough, boarded the vehicle and retrieved their supplies.
Those who were too timid even abandoned the supplies and fled directly to another bus.
A few minutes later, most of the supplies inside the vehicle had been moved away.
The crab-faced people were even more confused, and finally couldn't help but walk towards the car door:
"Everyone...where are you going? Why...aren't you going back to the car?"
Stuttering words escaped from the crab-faced man's mouth. At this moment, he seemed to realize the abnormality in his body, as if his throat was blocked, making it difficult for him to speak.
At this moment, the four people finally saw their own appearance clearly through the car windows and rearview mirrors.
It was still a human figure, but the head had been replaced by a crab, which looked incredibly eerie.
boom--
In other words, the moment they realized their abnormality, their rationality was quickly overwhelmed.
The four people went crazy and tried to rush off the bus.
Hu Dong immediately ordered the bus doors to be closed, trapping the four crab-faced men inside.
Hu Dong suppressed his fear and said:
"Xiao Liu, Xiao Li...it's just bad luck of yours..."
"We can't keep you in the convoy any longer!"
"There are still supplies in the bus; you can drive it to escape..."
Captain Hu tried his best to calm the four men down, fearing they might suddenly lash out.
However, the four crab-faced men went even crazier, shouting repeatedly:
"Team Leader Hu, Team Leader Fang! We're comrades!"
"I handed over half of the supplies to the convoy yesterday! You said you'd take us to Kyoto..."
"No, you can't abandon us!"
clap clap-
The bus doors and windows were being pounded on loudly.
Realizing they had been abandoned, the four quickly descended into madness.
thump—
Xiao Li punched the bus door, smashing the metal door open and denting it in the middle, with four people sticking their arms out of the vehicle.
