Along the way, the commercial vehicle was speeding quickly. Because the highways were blocked, Qi Dong relied on his memory to travel through various small roads.
But the atmosphere in the car was very strange. Except for Blue, who was fast asleep, everyone was looking at the time on the central control screen intentionally or unintentionally.
There are less than forty-five minutes left before the one-hour deadline. Can they really run out?
To say that the person with the least pressure, besides Blue, should be Qi Dong. Now he has completely left his fate to God. He stepped on the accelerator to the bottom and the car was speeding on the small road with no speed limit.
This is something he never dared to do before. After all, on these country roads, there will always be old men who suddenly come out of blind spots to block the way.
But now he doesn't need to be afraid. If anyone dares to stand in front of him, then he doesn't mind sending him away in advance.
"Brother Dong, are you sure?"
Xu Qian, who was sitting in the passenger seat, suddenly asked. To be honest, she was not very scared, but felt relieved.
It's better to die, as it won't turn into an ugly monster after being infected with the zombie virus.
"Don't worry, buddy, you can drive into the city on this road with your eyes closed."
Qi Dong smiled and gave everyone a dose of vaccination, although he was not sure.
Although I have walked this road countless times in my memory, there will be obstacles on the way.
"Everyone, let's have something to eat."
Suddenly, Teacher Mu opened the box he had prepared and took out some braised chicken legs and bottles of water.
Originally, everyone's attention was focused on time, but now when Teacher Mu said this, their stomachs began to growl.
They haven't eaten in a really long time.
The braised chicken drumsticks that usually cost three to five yuan a pack are delicious in your mouth.
Xu Qian opened a package and handed it to Qi Dong's mouth.
"No, would you like to eat one too?"
"No, I'm not very hungry."
Qi Dong shook his head, not because he was being humble, but because after he took the injection of the unknown medicine, he felt as if he had taken the Bigu Pill and no longer felt hungry at all.
Xu Qian glanced at Qi Dong and said nothing. She seemed to have guessed what Qi Dong was thinking.
The vehicle soon reached a bridge.
This is the cross-sea bridge that connects G City and S City. It is a tourist attraction on weekdays and is only free on holidays. They have taken advantage of the apocalypse. Today, you can enjoy the style of the cross-sea bridge for free.
There was some fog on the bridge, but it did not affect the mood of everyone watching the scenery at all.
This can be regarded as searching for the joy of life in the most desperate time, right?
Everyone was chattering among themselves, but Qi Dong's face became a little serious.
Since his perception has improved, he can clearly perceive biological activities within a ten-mile radius.
At this time, he felt that something was approaching them quickly under the bridge.
"Everyone sit still and hold on tight, something is coming!"
Qi Dong said abruptly, directly breaking the noisy atmosphere in the car.
Everyone froze on the spot, observing the surroundings vigilantly, not daring to breathe.
Blue seemed to feel a hint of threat. He who was sleeping suddenly opened his eyes and sat up.
"Dong, Brother Dong, aren't you mistaken?"
Sun Ya asked quietly. She had been observing for a long time but could not see where the things Qi Dong mentioned were.
“You’re not mistaken, sit tight!”
Qi Dong responded to Sun Ya, and the steering wheel in his hand suddenly turned to the right!
The car made a muffled sound amid a fierce creaking sound, and the body quickly drifted to the right.
"ah!"
The sudden shaking of the car startled everyone, and they screamed and shouted. Sun Ya and others in the back row didn't even react, they were all crowded together.
The next second, they were horrified to find that just behind and to their left, a gray-white pillar broke through the bridge deck and poked up from the sea.
Fortunately, Qi Dong reacted quickly enough. If they had not dodged just now, they would have flown into the sky by now.
"What is that?!"
Xu Qian looked at the gray-white pillar in horror, and couldn't help asking in a sharp voice.
"octopus."
After Qi Dong saw the suction cup on the pillar, a cold light flashed in his eyes. He had watched many disaster movies before, and he directly connected the gray-white pillar in front of him with the giant octopus.
"What? Octopus?"
After hearing Qi Dong's words, everyone took a breath.
Are you kidding me, such a big octopus? Judging from this tentacle, it is worth a tank, right?
"Dongzi is right, this is an octopus, and it is a mutated octopus."
After Teacher Mu stabilized, he glanced at the gray-white pillars outside and slowly said, "I didn't expect that these viruses would spread so fast. Even these things in the sea have been infected."
"here we go again!"
bass!
Qi Dong shouted low, and the steering wheel in his hand seemed to be alive, spinning back and forth. The body of the commercial vehicle kept dodging between the tentacles. Several times, it was almost pushed into the sky by the tentacles.
"damn it!"
Qi Dong cursed secretly, and a feeling of suffocation squeezed out from his chest and abdomen, rushing straight to Tianling Gai.
"Brother Dong, be careful ahead."
Xu Qian suddenly let out a scream, and Qi Dong's eyes quickly shifted from the rearview mirror to the windshield.
But just after looking at it for such a second, Qi Dong decisively stepped on the brakes.
In front of them, the tentacles of the giant octopus directly wrapped around the entire bridge, completely blocking the road through the other end.
squeak!
The tires of the commercial vehicle rubbed rapidly on the ground, and finally stopped just as it was about to hit the tentacle.
"call!"
Qi Dong breathed a sigh of relief and felt that the hands holding the steering wheel were trembling slightly.
If he had directly crashed into it just now, there would probably be only one outcome, and that would be a car crash and death.
God knows how strong this octopus's tentacles are.
"get off!"
Qi Dong took a breath and jumped off the driver's seat.
This giant octopus was obviously coming for them. Now that the road ahead was blocked, continuing to sit in the car would be the same as committing suicide.
Blue also walked down from the back door at this time, standing side by side with Qi Dong, looking at the giant octopus with a burning fighting spirit in his eyes.
"Xu Qian, Sun Ya, you two take them and run back first. Leave this octopus to me and Blue."
There was definitely no way to escape, and they were still within the blast range. The way forward was blocked, and running back would be a dead end. They had no choice but to fight this octopus. Since he was unwilling to give way, they had no choice but to fight. Clear away all these stumbling blocks.
