There is something wrong with my infinite flow teammates!

A one-inch-long triangular-shaped glass fragment was inserted into her calf, and blood flowed out, darkening the color of the thermal stockings on her calf.

"Ye Shan! Ye Shan!" Kitahara Sora yelled, "Watch out for the zombies behind you, they're coming from the direction of the swimming pool!"

After saying that, without paying attention to anything else, he quickly raised his gun and emptied a magazine under his body. Then he put the gun away and pulled out the Alaskan whaling harpoon tied to his waist. With a horizontal cut, he cut off the arm of the zombie that was holding Yukinoshita's ankle. Then he squatted down and carefully pried open the stiff and cold fingers.

Then he looked up and shouted, "Yukinoshita!"

Before Yukinoshita Yukino could react, he pulled out the glass fragment that was pierced in her calf. A few drops of blood splashed out along with Yukinoshita Yukino's cry of pain. Kitahara Sora threw away the glass fragment that was at least three centimeters long and was stained with blood. He quickly cut a notch in his inner thermal clothing and quickly tied it around her wound.

Then he stood up, squeezed her shoulders hard and yelled, "You're not infected! You're just scratched by glass!"

Seeing that Yukinoshita Yukino didn't respond, Kitahara Sora continued to yell: "Did you hear that? If you heard it, answer me! You are not infected, don't scare yourself!"

Yukinoshita Yukino's eyes were red and her long eyelashes had some wet marks. She did not answer Kitahara Sora immediately, but pursed her lips tightly, and nodded slightly after a few seconds.

"Very good!" Kitahara Sora nodded: "How many magazines do you have left?"

"There is one spare... one more."

Yukinoshita Yukino opened her mouth, but her voice no longer had the usual clear and ethereal feeling, and sounded a little hoarse.

Kitahara Sora continued, "That's enough. I remember you have a small pistol, right? Go up first! Don't worry about how much blood you bleed. Just bear the pain and run up! Quick!"

Yukinoshita Yukino was silent for a second, then nodded vigorously and trotted towards the stairs of the safe passage behind her.

On this side, as soon as Kitahara Kong opened his mouth, Ye Shan and others had already reacted. Jing Haoyong threw several grenades into the blind spots on both sides of the downstairs. The continuous and violent explosions caused the ground to shake, and broken corpses burst out from the passage under their feet.

Then a large number of zombies rushed into the hall, and merged with the zombies at the door like tributaries of a river, climbing up the stairs.

Tobe Sho was no longer shooting. His bullets were all gone and he was concentrating on delivering ammunition to Hayama Hayato.

Hirano Toda wiped the sweat from his forehead in despair, leaving three black fingerprints as he continued to pull the trigger: "The ammunition is running out!"

“Asshole! Asshole! Asshole! Ah!!!”

Da He Taiyang frantically pulled the trigger with his right hand, quickly pried open the governor's gun, and the lever-action gun chamber threw the shells into the air one by one.

“Jing Hao! Jing Hao! How much time has passed? How much longer will it take?!”

Listening to Hayato Hayama's almost crazy roar, Igo Nagata also began to roar loudly, with a hint of despair in his tone: "Seven minutes? Eight minutes? I don't know, I don't know either!"

"Throw all the Molotov cocktails down, leaving no one behind! We are preparing to retreat upwards!"

"But……"

"You can throw it if I tell you to!" Beiyuan Kong roared, "It can't burn!"

Listening to Kitahara Kong's angry rebuke, Jing Haoyong didn't care about so much in the emergency. He lit the remaining 5 Molotov cocktails in one breath and threw them all at the zombie group that was rushing towards him.

The flames that rushed towards him suddenly grew two or three meters high, and even smoked the hair of Hayato Hayama who was standing on the edge, causing him to take two steps back.

"Retreat, we..."

Before Hayato Hayama finished his words, Kitahara Sora, who was preparing to retreat, heard a long and dull mooing of a cow. The decibel of the sound gradually increased from low to high, with a long tail. His pupils suddenly widened and his heart sank.

In just a moment, everyone heard a "bang" and the reinforced glass outside that was covered by zombies trembled heart-poundingly. The zombies outside turned into meat paste like rice cakes beaten by a pile driver and stuck to the glass.

The collision swept through the center point, and the zombies began to surge like water waves, then whooshed down. A gap was left in the tightly covered glass wall, which let in a little sunlight and was then filled with zombies.

The high-strength reinforced glass also made a despairing crackling sound, and then cracked and spread like a spider web...

At this time, the zombies had already revealed their heads on the ground on the second floor. When Hirano Toda emptied the last bullet of the HK416 in his hand, the sound rang again.

In an instant, there was another heavy hammer blow. The right side of the hotel, which had just been covered by zombies, had cracked glass and shattered into particles with a swish sound...

Chapter 4: Tide of Zombies ()

As an entire wall shattered, the zombies clinging to the outside of the wall poured in like a bag of rice with a hole poked through the bottom.

A huge figure, nearly two meters tall, pushed away the zombies that fell to the ground like riding the wind and waves, stepping on the burning and swaying flames. In the firelight, dirty and pale pupils looked at everyone.

It was wearing a pair of dirty dark blue overalls, and its body was tilted to the right in a deformed manner. Its left arm was so thin that only a skeleton was left, as if it had suffered from paralysis, while its right arm was muscular and thicker than the waist of an adult male.

At first glance, its right arm is so exaggerated that it is almost the same size as its body!

Charger!

"Retreat! Retreat quickly!" Hayato Hayama's pupils widened and his throat was hoarse as he shouted, "Retreat to the third floor, close the corridor door, and blow up the stairs!"

"Don't retreat yet! Kill it! Kill it! Kill it! Kill it before you retreat!"

Beiyuankong roared, the AK in his hand spewing flames, the barrel glowed red, and white smoke filled the air: "It's useless for us to hide anywhere unless we kill it!"

Hearing Kitahara Sora's rebuke, Hayato Hayama and the others paused in their retreat, pulled out a grenade from their waist, and threw it at the violent attacker.

The Violator roared and raised his strong right arm in front of him. The moment the grenade touched the Violator, there was a violent explosion. The shock wave caused the limbs of ordinary zombies around him to fly and sparks to splash, but after the smoke cleared, the Violator who was at the center of the explosion was safe and sound.

Seeing this, Hayato Hayama raised SCARL and started to attack the Violent Charger wildly, but its huge right arm was still not lowered. Blood mist spurted out under the impact of bullets. The Violent Charger's arm was like a giant shield, and the bullets could only be shallowly embedded in the skin.

"Impossible, how can it have such defensive power!"

Beiyuankong was in doubt, with a look of disbelief in his eyes. He turned his head and shouted, "Shotgun! Dahe, use the shotgun to spray it! Hit its lower body!"

"That's too late!"

Da He Taiyang put down his gun and said anxiously: "Retreat quickly! Retreat first...Yojie! What are you going to do!"

The moment Ohga Taiyo was speaking, zombies approached Junichiro Inoue. A zombie jumped up and pounced in front of him, but was blocked by his gun. However, the terrified Junichiro Inoue did not confront the zombies. He let go of his weapon in an instant, screaming and rushing towards the safety stairs behind him.

But Yosuke Asakawa seemed to have gone mad with rage. He held the Franky shotgun and shot away the attackers who were rushing towards Junichiro Inoue. Then he turned the gun and fired at the attackers one shot after another.

“Ah! Ah! Ah! Don’t die! I don’t want to die! Ah! Spray it to pieces, spray it to pieces!!!”

The violent attacker's arm was covered in flesh and blood, but the bullet was unable to cause any damage to the underlying muscle tissue.

"Bang~bang~bang~"

One shot, two shots, three shots... click...

The ferocious-looking Asakawa Yosuke was stunned for a moment, and quickly took out a few bullets from his pocket, but he hesitated too much and was too nervous, so all the bullets fell to the ground with a crash.

When he squatted down and fumbled for the bullet in panic, the Ramblers mooed again. It blocked its body with its arms, but its underdeveloped legs burst out with amazing strength and rushed up the stairs at an extremely fast speed.

Like a speeding train, with unstoppable momentum, it effortlessly knocked away the zombies along the way and the huge ceiling at the stairs. The moment Asakawa Yosuke raised his head, he was pushed against the wall by the violent rusher.

The huge impact force created a huge spider web crack with a diameter of two meters on the marble background wall. The center of the crack was dyed bright red with just this one blow. Blood flowed along the lines and carved a bloody spider web on the milky white background wall. Yosuke Asakawa, who was in the center of the spider web, was like a prey caught by the spider, and his fate was already determined.

But that was not all. After the violent attacker hit the wall, he quickly pulled out Yosuke Asakawa, who had half of his body embedded in the wall, and held him in his hand. After lifting him up, he slammed him into the ground.

As the sound of impact was heard again, Yosuke Asakawa's body was already a bloody mess and twisted beyond human form.

The violent attacker did not continue hammering the twisted corpse in his hands, nor did he stuff the flesh and blood under his body into his mouth. He immediately raised his arms, but only for a moment.

With a crisp sound of a string, an arrow had already penetrated deeply into its eye socket.

The fin-shaped hunting arrow pierced through the violent attacker's skull. The moment it touched the flesh, the sharp triangular fin side blades bounced off, rotated into the violent attacker's brain, formed a huge cone-shaped wound, and then broke out of the body. As the brain tissue was destroyed, the violent attacker collapsed in an instant.

Junichiro Inoue had already run up without caring about everyone else, Hayato Hayama had his hand on the door handle, and Igo Nagata was covering their retreat, all this happened in a flash.

Everyone just saw Asakawa Yosuke covering everyone's retreat, and then a bullet fell. The moment he bent down to pick up the bullet, he was knocked into the wall by the violent attacker, and then he was immediately knocked down and smashed to the ground. At the same time, Kitahara Sora's arrow had shot into the violent attacker's eyeball, and then the bodies of the violent attacker and Asakawa Yosuke were instantly buried by the burning group of corpses.

"Yousuke!"

Ohga Taiyo's eyes were bloodshot and his pupils were bloodshot. He wanted to rush over but was forcibly held back by Ishikawa Ichi and Tobe Sho. After a cry of grief, he glared at Kitahara Sora hatefully and quickly ran towards the safe passage with everyone else.

"withdraw."

Kitahara Sora put away his bow and ignored the kill reward notification sound in his mind. He was the last one to escape through the safe door and locked it. After looking at everyone, he said to Hayato Hayama beside him, "Hayama, do you have any ammunition?"

Hayato Hayama took off SCARL's magazine, took a look at it and replied, "Not many. There are still 9 rounds in this magazine, and there is a spare magazine."

Kitahara Sora nodded and continued, "We have to blow up the stairs on the third and fourth floors."

As he was speaking, the security door made a violent bang and cracks appeared on the wall.

"Asshole, didn't you say that special infected people are easy to kill once they are discovered? Why is that guy outside invulnerable?" Da He Taiyang's eyes were red, and he yelled at Kitahara Sora: "Why don't you just retreat? Why did you say to shoot it with a shotgun? Yosuke is dead! Did you know that Yosuke is dead?!"

After saying that, Da He Taiyang wanted to reach out and grab Kitahara Sora's collar, but was blocked by the latter: "Are you sure you want to quarrel with me now?"

Kitahara Sora pinched Daha Taiyang's wrist with an indifferent expression. Although his facial expression didn't change much, Daha Taiyang's expression changed from extreme anger to daze, and then as if he was enduring something, and finally he couldn't hold back the pain anymore and started shouting.

Kitahara Sora released the wrist that he had pinched to leave five purple palm prints and continued, "Take out all the remaining grenades on you, whether they are delayed or contact grenades, take them all out."

Da He Taiyang was still touching his wrist with a look of pain, but after Bei Yuan Kong glanced at him, he obediently handed over the grenade on his body.

Beiyuankong counted and found that there were 8 grenades in total, then took a look at the corridor door that had been pushed open by the zombies, and quickly said to everyone: "I will be responsible for blowing up the stairs on the second and third floors. I remember that the corridor door on the opposite side was locked, but it will also be pushed open by the zombies. However, there are definitely not as many zombies over there as here, so we should be able to hold out for a while."

"Ye Shan, you take charge of the opposite side. From what we can see now, the zombies haven't pushed open the door on the opposite side, otherwise they would have come around from the banquet hall to surround us. I need you to immediately run through the banquet hall on this floor to the opposite side and blow up the safe passage stairs on the other side. After we meet up on the fifth floor, I will run to the top floor to get some ammunition and supplies from the suite. You just need to retreat while waiting for me to return."

Hayato Hayama nodded solemnly, took four grenades from Kitahara Sora, and handed his rifle to Igo Naga, who only brought ammunition for support but no firearms. He then drew the pistol from his waist, took out a 5.56 caliber magazine from his pocket, handed it to Hirano Toda, and said, "Sho, you, Hirano and Igo stay here to help Kitahara. Ishikawa and Ohga, please go over there."

Seeing Hayato Hayama and Ohga running away, Kitahara Sora immediately pulled out the grenade ring.

At this time, the corridor door collapsed under the heavy weight.

___________________

At this time, Yukinoshita Yukino's lips had turned white and sweat was dripping from her forehead, but she still gritted her teeth and climbed up desperately with both hands holding the railing.

Her right leg was completely powerless and blood had soaked through her sneakers, making them feel extremely heavy. Now she was barely able to drag half of her body upwards, leaving a thin trail of blood from the ground floor to the ninth floor.

He gasped slightly and was suddenly startled.

Listening carefully, a strange laugh gradually became clearer from faint.

Yukinoshita Yukino was suddenly shocked, and thinking back to what Kitahara Sora said last night, her mood fell to the bottom.

Jockey, also known as monkey or little old man, is a special infected person. He is characterized by wearing a dirty gray vest, Mediterranean hairstyle, hunchback, big arms and hands, and uncoordinated thin legs.

The jockey will attack a lone target, sneak up from behind the survivor and jump onto the victim's neck like riding a horse, grabbing the prey's face with both hands. The victim will then stumble uncontrollably left and right in a panic and break away from the group until he dies.

However, according to Kitahara Sora, in the game the target being ridden by the jockey is under its control. If it tells you to go left, the victim will also stumble to the left. If it wants you to jump off the building, the victim's legs will also lean towards the window or the cliff after being controlled.

As for this magical statement, Kitahara Sora evaded the question by saying that he had not encountered it yet so he was not sure, and that the setting was added to the game to increase playability.

But one thing is certain: if you are controlled by the jockey, you will definitely not be able to escape without the help of your teammates and can only be tortured to death by it.

Regardless of whether what Kitahara Sora said was completely accurate, it was extremely bad news to encounter this special infected person who was good at sneak attacks when he was unable to move. If he could not kill it with one strike, then as a human, there would always be times when he was distracted, and if he was attacked by it, the consequences would be...

And the strange laughter heard now is the sign that the jockey has found the target and is about to launch an attack.

Yukinoshita Yukino struggled to get up and locked the corridor door behind her. She slowly sat down with her back against the door, holding the UMP9 submachine gun tightly to her chest. She was so nervous that even her breathing became extremely slow, and her eyes quickly scanned back and forth between the upper and lower floors of the stairs.

The only way now is to hold on and wait, wait for the zombie tide to end in ten minutes or so, and wait for Kitahara Sora and his group to come back.

During this period, any non-human target that appears in the field of vision will be shot and killed as soon as it appears.

Listening to the strange laughter that came and went, Yukinoshita Yukino was on high alert. Her hands holding the gun were already soaked with sweat. She kept imitating the jockey's appearance in her mind and listening to her own heartbeat that was getting heavier and heavier.

At this moment, heavy footsteps were heard approaching rapidly from the lower floor, and Yukinoshita Yukino even became cautious in her breathing... But after listening carefully... these footsteps could definitely not be from the jockey!

Yukinoshita Yukino felt relieved. It wasn’t the jockeys...so they are back?

A little joy appeared on her cheeks, but was then replaced by deep worry. They came back so soon?

Chapter 5: Tide of Zombies ()

The closer the footsteps got, the more nervous Yukinoshita became.

Until he saw the person coming, his heart, which had not yet been completely relieved, was lifted up again, and the uneasiness in his heart became stronger, because in the reflection of his pupils was Junichiro Inoue's frightened face and his breathless figure stumbling away...

At this moment, he didn't know where the gun in his hand had gone. He ran towards his own direction with empty hands like a defeated stray dog, running away in shame with its tail between its legs.

When Junichiro Inoue saw Yukinoshita Yukino sitting on the ground with her back against the wall and bleeding profusely from her legs, his face, which had been distorted by fear, calmed down. After staring at Yukinoshita Yukino for a few seconds, he turned his gaze to the UMP9 submachine gun she was holding in front of her chest, as if hesitating about something.

In the end, he ignored the injured girl, passed by her and continued running upstairs.

Yukinoshita did not actively ask for help, but only asked calmly to Inoue Junichiro's back, her voice a little weak: "From your appearance, have Kitahara and the others retreated as well?"

Hearing Yukinoshita Yukino's slightly desperate question, Junichiro Inoue paused, stopped and turned his back to Yukinoshita Yukino, but did not answer her question. After a moment of struggle, his face became slightly distorted, and then returned to calm.

Because this very common question was naturally turned into a P in Junichiro Inoue's ears, "Did they fail? Why are you the only one who came up? Or did you, a coward, abandon your companions and run away alone again? Oh, why don't you help me?"

But what Yukinoshita Yukino meant was that she really wanted to understand the situation, that's all. Maybe her choice of words was problematic, but she is definitely not without emotional intelligence.

After so many years of habit, when has Miss Yukinoshita ever paid attention to her choice of words and other people's feelings? Maybe after saying something out loud, she would feel that it was too much and feel embarrassed, and sometimes she didn't realize that there was anything wrong with her choice of words and tone.

But these words became enterprise-level understanding in the mind of Inoue, who already felt guilty.

He stared at Yukinoshita Yukino for at least 5 seconds before moving closer step by step. At this moment, he looked unusually calm: "Yeah, I failed. There are too many zombies. I don't want to die, so I retreat first."

Yukinoshita was about to speak when she heard Inoue Junichiro's suspiciously calm voice: "Yukinoshita-san, you... you actually guessed it a long time ago, right? It was actually me who abandoned Kitahara Sora and ran away. I thought he was dead, so all the credit was attributed to me. But why... I saw him being pounced on by the zombies with my own eyes, why did he appear unharmed, and why did he kill the zombies that pounced on him!"

Inoue Junichiro suddenly answered something irrelevant, and Yukinoshita Yukino suddenly felt a little puzzled: "If you don't want to answer, you can just leave, Inoue-san."
