?63: Chapter 63 Bai Ze 63: Chapter 63 Bai Ze At that moment, Lin Zinuo saw Su Mo still standing on the road, and called out to him.
“Su Mo, come here, don’t just stand there.”
Su Mo was also slightly startled, hesitated for a moment, but eventually walked over.
“What’s up?”
“Nothing much, can’t I just call you over?
Why stand there all aloof, have some meat soup to replenish your strength.
Although any food can restore energy in the game, eating cold food all the time can make you feel sick.”
Lin Zinuo personally served a bowl of meat soup and handed it to Su Mo.
The sisters nearby saw this scene and looked somewhat uncomfortable; the atmosphere, which had been filled with laughter and talk, became much quieter.
“Thank you.”
Su Mo took it and had a taste, finding the flavor indeed quite good.
And after eating it, the warm feeling in his stomach clearly greatly restored his energy.
Just then, in the nearby mountain forest, a white figure approached silently, a pair of pitch-black pupils appeared without a sound, watching Su Mo and the others intently.
Soon after, the pale figure began to retreat little by little, until it finally disappeared.
Lin Zinuo sat on a rock by the creek, stretched lazily, and felt very comfortable as the breeze blew by.
“The weather today is really nice, cool, so very cool.”
“This kind of weather might bring rain.”
Su Mo looked up at the sky and responded abruptly.
Lin Zinuo’s expression stiffened; she touched her forehead, regretting having called this guy over.
Her good mood vanished in an instant.
“Su Mo, has no one ever told you that you’re quite dull?”
“No.”
Su Mo replied earnestly.
Lin Zinuo sighed deeply, at a loss for words.
Zhou Qian, standing aside, saw the helpless expression on Lin Zinuo and giggled behind her hand, “Sister Zinuo, even you have moments of frustration!
Su Mo here, you just can’t treat him like a normal person.”
“Zhou Qian, are you asking for a tickling?”
As she spoke, Lin Zinuo stretched out her hand to tickle Zhou Qian.
Zhou Qian playfully dodged quickly.
“You can’t catch me.”
…
Su Mo watched the two frolicking, and his mood seemed to relax a great deal.
However, at that moment, Su Mo’s pupils suddenly contracted; he sharply caught the irregular movement in the bushes and trees far in the mountain forest, as if some creature was passing through.
Without hesitation, he called out to Lin Zinuo.
“Lin Zinuo.”
Lin Zinuo, who was playing and joking around with Zhou Qian, stopped and turned to Su Mo, “How many times do I have to say this, I’m your superior, and I’m also older than you, don’t you know to call me Sister Zinuo?”
“There’s a monster approaching.”
Su Mo succinctly explained the situation.
Hearing Su Mo’s words, Lin Zinuo’s expression changed drastically, and she asked with solemnity.
“Are you sure?”
“Certain.”
Su Mo replied with certainty.
Lin Zinuo’s expression kept changing.
Logically, the road should have just been cleared by the Legion Leader, and they shouldn’t encounter any danger.
But for some reason, Su Mo’s words were exceptionally persuasive, and she chose to believe him.
She shouted loudly.
“Everyone, drop your food and pick up your weapons, return to the vehicles immediately.”
The companions, who were just chatting and laughing, upon hearing Lin Zinuo’s command, instantly abandoned their bowls and chopsticks and rushed towards the convoy.
The other members on lookout duty also gripped their weapons tightly, entering a ready-to-fight state, even though they were not sure what was happening.
However, just at that moment, the surrounding woods became even more disturbed, and monsters with bodies up to two to three meters tall, resembling lizard-like spire heads filled with sharp teeth, sickly white all over, with long tails that split into triangular openings filled with sharp teeth at the end, burst forth.
“My God!
It’s the Bai Ze!!”
The living players at the scene screamed in horror.
Lin Zinuo’s face abruptly changed.
When they had taken down Dawn City, they had more than their share of encounters with these kinds of monsters.
Their grotesque levels were something they all witnessed firsthand.
If it had been a normal situation, with them fully armed, she wouldn’t be too worried.
The problem was that they were on their way to receive equipment and only had light weapons on them.
Those were still okay against the less agile zombies, but were too forced against the Bai Ze Monsters.
Su Mo glanced at the monsters that had emerged and quickly flicked through information about Bai Ze in his mind.
Bai Ze were monsters that mutated from alien creatures that arrived on Earth after being infected with viruses and radiation.
Their skin was tough, they had extremely fast running abilities, and could rip through steel plates with their teeth and claws; their sense of smell was also very keen.
Generally, juveniles were over a meter tall, those in the growth stage reached 2 meters, and those in the mature stage could even reach 3 meters.
During their juvenile stage, their defenses were not fully developed, so light weapons could easily deal fatal damage.
During the growth stage, the Bai Ze’s skin partially hardened and they could withstand small caliber gunfire, and their life force was further strengthened.
These Bai Ze at that stage already had strong lethality.
As for the mature ones, they became even more perverse.
Their skin was exceptionally tough, their bones hard, and their life force surged exponentially.
Ordinary light weapons could no longer inflict fatal damage, except with shots to vital areas.
Moreover, mature Bai Ze had great mobility and strength, they could even easily overturn a car.
Of course, these were just general Bai Ze.
Bai Ze could continue to grow even beyond the mature stage.
Their growth was marked by the splitting of their tails, with a two-tailed Bai Ze evolving into a Type I mutant species, and three-tailed ones into Type II.
Moreover, depending on the degree of evolution, they would gain varying levels of power.
Additionally, among the same type of Bai Ze, they could be categorized into general species, elite, and lord levels, depending on their energy fluctuations’ strength.
“All living players get on the vehicles, all combat players open fire to cover!”
Lin Zinuo drew her automatic pistol and fired at the charging Bai Ze.
Zhou Qian and the others were not panicked at all; they dispersed into squads and opened fire from different directions at the rushing Bai Ze.
Fortunately, many of the Bai Ze charging down were in the growth and juvenile stages.
Under the barrage of gunfire, some of the smaller Bai Ze were instantly killed, and the speed of those in the mature stage also slowed down.
Qin Wang urgently said to Lin Zinuo, “Squad leader, the road is not completely cleared yet.”
Lin Zinuo glanced at the obstacles on the road; the large chunks of rock had been cleared to the side, and some of the earth had also been moved.
She decisively gave the order.
“Don’t wait, charge through!”
“Understood.”
Qin Wang and the others immediately ceased their work and sprinted towards the green trucks.
At this moment, Su Mo had already made his way back to the green truck first.
He yelled to Lin Zinuo.
“Get in the vehicle!”
Lin Zinuo had no intention to linger in battle, giving the order without hesitation.
“Everyone, pull out!”
She quickly climbed into the vehicle, and before she could even settle down, Su Mo floored the accelerator.
