Chapter 189 Beast in the Mist

The distance from the port to the gas station was neither short nor long.

Yet Lin Xia dared not floor the accelerator.

On top of the originally dim and unclear weather, a thick layer of fog had been added.

It seemed to envelop the entire outskirts, making the sparse tire tracks and bloodstains on the ground even more shocking.

The cawing of crows, which sent chills down one's spine, occasionally echoed from the mountains.

And the further they went, the thicker the fog became.

"Xiao... Xiao Le, I've divined with my fingers, and today doesn't seem to be going smoothly. How about we... rob tomorrow?" Luo Shu shivered at the weather.

These scenes, placed in a horror novel, would signify that they were going to get a box lunch today!

Just kidding, he absolutely couldn't ignore these flags!

"Mmm, I feel it too... I just feel uncomfortable with the fog..." Lin Ruoshui didn't know Luo Xiao Le's usual operational style, but she just felt that the weather wasn't suitable for a mission.

Unexpectedly, Luo Xiao Le was instead full of excitement, sticking her head out of the car window and looking around in all directions.

Very good, no swirling air currents were seen.

This meant there were no zombies nearby!

And this fog, she usually didn't like it, but on this day, wasn't it a good helper for their "plunder"?

Brilliant!

"Don't worry, there are no zombies around." Luo Xiao Le smiled and took out some large, sweet oranges from the food stall to share with everyone.

"However, our speed isn't enough, so we still need to hurry and finish quickly." It would be difficult to rob once the fog dispersed.

Lin Ruoshui was shocked. No zombies? This didn't make sense...

How did you know that? Through your eyes?

"I didn't feel any zombie aura either..." Chen Xiaolin also appeared very relaxed.

"Ahaha, is that so? Then I'll sleep a bit more..." Luo Shu suddenly relaxed.

Mo Chen beside her also closed her eyes with a relaxed expression.

Lin Ruoshui looked at her sister with utter bewilderment. Lin Xia's lips also curled up leisurely, "Ruoshui, this is delicious. Get me two more slices of orange, I'm going to accelerate!"

Lin Ruoshui: "???"

Why did you believe them when they said there were no zombies! Were they zombie detectors?

"Ah—" she shrieked softly, seeing her sister step on the accelerator, driving them into the thick fog.

...

The gas station ahead on the mountain road.

Ten large trucks were parked by the roadside.

The fog ahead was pressing, surrounding the mountains, looking oppressive, and the air seemed thinner.

Although this Qinglong Gang squad had two defensive ability users, the fog ahead was extremely strange, with visibility less than 2 meters, making it impossible to figure out and not daring to approach rashly.

"Stand by, proceed once the fog dissipates. All of you, keep your spirits up, there absolutely cannot be any problem with these supplies!" the leader said.

"...Yes..." the others were a little apprehensive.

This fog was too strange; there were definitely a bunch of zombies hiding in it!

Anyone who rashly entered was seeking death!

"Damn it, when will this fog dissipate? It looks too scary!" The two in the front of the Qinglong Gang, while unzipping their pants to relieve themselves, cursed under their breath.

"Gala..." From the fog ahead, for some reason, a strange sound was heard.

Like the sound of clothes rubbing.

"Holy crap, what was that sound, did you hear it!" That person was terrified, quickly zipped up his pants, and retreated.

"Roar..." Then, one heavy footstep after another began to emanate from the fog, as if a beast was growling.

"Get your weapons! Holy crap! This is a big one!" His heart leaped into his throat!

"Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!" The others also shouted in fear, brandishing their guns and retreating frantically.

"Roar..." A huge bear-like shadow gradually emerged from the fog.

Step by step, it walked like a human, very strangely!

"Wait..." They squinted, trying to see more clearly...

That was no ordinary wild beast!

It was a giant strawberry bear!

Although it looked like a strawberry bear plush toy from a mall, its entire body was mottled with dark red and bright red blood mixed together, and there seemed to be terrifying marks like brains on its head...

"Mutated bear zombie? This one definitely ate people! It must be some kind of mutated zombie species! Look at the brains around its mouth! Ah—" That person choked back a scream in his throat.

Not only that, but the strawberry bear looked wobbly in the fog, staggering with each step, which was incredibly eerie in this environment!

Humans always had the greatest fear of the unknown.

Everyone gasped.

"It's about to mutate again, about to erupt! Defensive ability users, quickly come forward!"

"Roar..." Luo Xiao Le sighed again inside the strawberry bear.

This fog was really uncomfortable. If she wasn't wearing the strawberry bear, she would have felt like she was in a sauna...

She didn't know that her few growls were amplified by the layered mountains, sounding exactly like the roars of a wild beast!

Until she took a few more steps forward and saw the blurry outlines of several large trucks in front of her.

And saw a line of people seemingly standing ahead.

Wait...

She suddenly realized...

Had they already encountered the target individuals?

"Fire... Fire!" The leader shouted himself hoarse, a shrill scream.

"Bang bang bang!" Immediately, the sounds of pistols and rifles assaulted her in unison!

[Detected owner in danger, clothing defense function has been automatically activated] the system's voice sounded in her mind instantly.

"???"

They're attacking already? Luo Xiao Le was a bit speechless...

You guys have no martial ethics!

Then why should she have martial ethics!

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!" Ignoring her trembling hand that ached, she grabbed a handful of thumbtacks and threw them out casually!

Whoever gets hit, gets hit!

But this time it wasn't her fault. The other party, out of fear, was standing too densely.

One second later, a small row of people fell down directly!

Blood gushed out instantly, flowing down the slope of the mountain and to the feet of the people behind...

"Ah! Blood!" The people behind screamed. They couldn't see clearly what was happening, but the smell of blood was real!

"That beast threw out its teeth!" They started shouting wildly!

"That beast pulled out their teeth!"

"That beast pulled out their teeth and put them on its head!"

"A beast pulled out their intestines and put them on its teeth!" Amidst the chaos, the rumors in the squad became more and more outrageous...

Luo Xiao Le couldn't listen anymore. What was all this nonsense!

The gang members behind had descended into utter chaos and were still madly firing at Luo Xiao Le.

They never expected that while Luo Xiao Le was drawing most of the firepower.

A wind blade swung over sharply!

Sweeping away several soldiers guarding the trucks behind!

Another ghostly fire, after eight fierce strikes, shattered the shield that the two defensive ability users had set up by the cars!

A ghostly figure leaped down from their car roof, and after a few clean elbow strikes, the soldiers guarding the cars fell to the ground on the spot.

Then, several silver lights flashed, and the necks of several people who stepped forward to stop them also gushed with blood...

Before the people in front could react, Luo Shu, along with Mo Chen and a few others, had already plundered the rear vehicles!
