At a quarter past three in the afternoon, the vanguard of the corpse group began to appear on the southwest slope of Huaiyu Mountain.
Before that, Lang Hua had ordered everyone to withdraw from their positions.
People cleared a kilometer-wide passage in advance to let the scattered black corpses go up the mountain.
People hid in the grass that was half a person tall, watching with fear as black corpses in ragged clothes and covered with ulcers passed by not far ahead.
The physiques of different corpse-transformed individuals vary greatly, causing the formation of the entire corpse group to be sparse.
The first black corpses to go up the mountain were mostly the strongest individuals among the corpses.
If you look closely, you can see that there are quite a number of S-shaped special features - ghost monkeys.
Lang Hua personally counted them. Although there were not many black corpses passing by, there were more than a thousand.
More than a thousand black corpses are just an appetizer to the assembled army of evolvers.
But in order not to alert the snake, they could only watch as the dish sprouted two legs and swaggered away from them.
"Just wait, I will wipe you out sooner or later!" Kong Yan'er hid in the crowd and said angrily in a low voice.
Seeing this, Lang Hua didn't say much, but asked Kong Fan to send a team of people to stay behind to help defend.
"Brother Kong, these small fish and shrimps are useless. But when the war starts, we must be careful that they rush into the formation from behind us."
Kong Fan nodded in agreement and said, "It doesn't matter. I'll send a team of people to guard the rear to take care of this matter. Yan'er, I'll leave this matter to you. Make sure not to let a black corpse rush through the front line."
Kong Yaner looked reluctant, but still said "yes" and led a group of people away.
At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, most of the corpses began to climb a steep slope on the mountainside.
Because the mountains here are steep, the soil is soft, and the rocks are slippery, black corpses slip and fall off the cliff from time to time.
The person who lost his footing rolled down a hillside filled with sharp rocks for a hundred or ten meters, and then fell into the river and fell into a puddle of mud.
As a result, the advance speed of the corpse group suddenly slowed down.
It wasn't until an hour later that all the zombies climbed up the steep slope.
Only some old, weak, sick and disabled people were left trapped at the foot of the hillside.
"It's time, go out!"
At this moment, a group of people suddenly appeared on the edge of the jungle far down the hillside.
Running in front was a white wolf and Duan Hei, who was armed with guns and ammunition.
"Occupy the river beach and release the attractant, quickly!"
Duan Hei made quick arrangements and ordered the dozen people accompanying him to take out hundreds of bright red glass bottles of reagents and throw them onto the gravel slope of the river beach.
For a while, the sound of "click, click, click" was heard endlessly, and the reagent liquid as red as blood flowed between the rocks on the river beach.
This is a specially-made attractant from Langya City, and it will evaporate quickly under normal temperature conditions.
Immediately afterwards, traces of "blood mist" appeared in the air. This mist was blown away by the wind like smoke, and then floated in the direction of Huaiyu Mountain.
Not long after, the black corpses who had climbed up the slope and the black corpses blocked by the slope turned back one after another.
"Extreme Spiritual Chaos Jue"
"Ho ho ho..." "Uh uh uh..."
With a "whoosh" sound, a red signal smoke shot straight into the sky.
There are some black corpses trying to cross the river,
Duan Hei ran to the river and stood holding a gun.
Just a few "pops" were heard, and several black corpses were shot in the head one after another.
Duan Hei didn't care to look back. He fired while urging others:
"Line up
! Block the attack by the river, hurry! "
Corresponding to Duan Hei's words, after the attractant smoke spread down the steep slope, all the black corpses within a hundred meters of the river beach immediately turned red.
A pair of dark red eyes seemed to be dyed by the red smoke that disappeared just now.
"Ho... ho ho." "Hoo uh!"
In an instant, the zombies mutinied, and more and more black corpses were affected.
The black corpses charged towards Duan Hei and the others as if they were desperate!
Within a few minutes, thousands of black corpses rushed to cross the river.
And among them, less than one-tenth of them were knocked down by bullets!
The reason is that the formation on the Evolver's side has not yet fully unfolded.
Five hundred men, five hundred guns, panicked and fired to defend the enemy.
Not even a thousand black corpses could be stopped.
"Spread out! Spread out!"
Duan Hei saw the veins popping up on his forehead and shouted at the top of his lungs:
"Everyone follows the plan, and each team defends its own section of the river beach!"
Duan Hei personally leads a team of elite soldiers, specializing in hunting down those who stand out among the corpses.
Only then did the river beach defense line gradually stabilize.
South of the river bank, countless shell casings flew from five hundred rifles.
Almost filled in every corner between the rocks.
Lang Hua gave half of the ammunition in the team to Duan Hei before the battle.
I just hope he can delay it as long as possible.
The longer he persists, the greater the odds of winning on the mountain!
…
At the same time, five thousand evolvers from Langya City and the Kong clan were lurking halfway up the mountain on the north bank of the Yuhe River.
Three minutes ago, Lang Hua and Kong Fan heard gunshots down the mountain and saw the signal smoke released by Duan Hei.
This means that the Yamashita team has already been at war with the zombies, and their general attack is about to begin.
"Commander, look!"
Not long after, someone reported to Kong Fan:
"The corpses on the hillside are retreating!"
Kong Fan looked around and saw that the corpses that had climbed up the steep slope were scrambling to retreat.
They pushed their companions around them, used their hands and feet, bared their teeth, and tried their best to rush in the direction they came from.
It seems that there is something under the mountain attracting them.
Moreover, this temptation was so strong that the corpse group did not even bother to attack the mountain.
"The attractant is effective. Lang Hua really didn't lie to me!"
Kong Fan thought this in his heart and suddenly felt Lang Hua's gaze.
The other party nodded towards him and said, "Brother Kong, look, the time has come."
The two of them climbed onto a huge rock and looked at the corpses in the southwest.
The total number of corpses along the southwest road is hundreds of thousands, spread out on the hillside in such a vast area.
Viewed from the mountain, the two-kilometer-long hillside is filled with densely packed human heads.
Originally, after the corpses gradually climbed up the hillside, their formation was quite loose.
However, due to the emergence of attractants, some black corpses suddenly moved retrograde.
The whole group of corpses became extremely crowded.
It's like an invisible cover has appeared on the hillside
It first held the entire group of corpses, and then slowly tightened under invisible pressure.
Inside the cover, there are countless black corpses next to each other, rubbing shoulders and heels.
Like a giant ant nest parasitic on the mountain.
…
View from the mountain
different,
Looking at it from the bottom of the mountain is another spectacular sight.
On the hillside, countless black corpses started running, running wildly, and crowding.
Then one after another, they fell off the cliff like dumplings.
The black corpses at the beginning all fell into pieces.
Fill every stone crevice in the river beach below the mountain with rotten flesh and blood.
Ten, a hundred, a thousand...
There are more and more black corpses falling to death from the cliff, and fewer and fewer.
It is precisely because of these meat pads in front,
More black corpses staggered and stood up again after falling off the cliff.
Some of them were lame, some had their arms drooped, and they rushed towards the south bank of the Yuhe River where Duan Hei was.
This is the black corpse! This is the dominant necromorph whose body has been taken over by the spore colony!
They have no pain, they are not afraid.
All they see is the desire for the new flesh and blood of the evolvers!
This is the evolutionary instinct rooted deep in the soul of the Necromorph.
It was established as early as the day of Advent.
As long as I can still walk.
No.
As long as it's not completely dead.
Even if they have to crawl, they still have to crawl here.
One hundred, one thousand, ten thousand!
They want to rush across the Jade River and eat Duan Hei and others alive.
They want to rush up to the stone beach and swallow up the medicinal liquid that appeals to their souls.
Even if there is a little bit of medicine on the stone, it must be chewed and swallowed!
People like Duan Hei are just flesh and blood.
If these monsters are allowed to land successfully,
How can they resist?
This scene makes people feel like they are at the gate of hell.
Countless evil spirits scrambled to crawl out of the abyss, eager to drink blood and eat flesh.
Anyone standing in front of this would not feel frightened!
"Captain, there are too many black corpses!"
Beads of sweat broke out on people's foreheads.
The sea of corpses was like a tide, bringing them invisible and huge pressure.
If they are not from Wolf Cliff City,
If they hadn't already experienced bigger and more terrifying scenes than this,
Some people have already backed down.
"Yes, Captain, we won't last long if we continue like this!"
"Concentrate, don't get distracted!" Duan Hei warned.
Of course Duan Hei knew that he couldn't last long like this.
But if he were asked to retreat like this, how could he be willing to do so?
"Brother Lang..."
Duan Hei remembered Lang Hua's instructions before he left, and gritted his teeth and asked:
"Qian Ming! Have you laid your booby traps?"
"It's done, Captain!"
On the river beach, a lean man in his thirties answered.
"good."
Duan Hei immediately ordered:
“Attention everyone!
The rear team changed into the front team, fighting and retreating at the same time.
Don’t stop using the attractant during the retreat!
Everyone can only keep a base amount of ammunition, and I will shoot out the rest!
Remember it all for me!
Our actions are related to the safety of ten thousand brothers on the mountain.
Even if there is only one person left, you have to hold on for twenty minutes! "
