Chapter 79 Bullet Hole Clues
Su Wanqing and Lin Che turned off their motorcycle engines and sat stiffly on the ground, surrounded by scorched earth and abandoned ordnance.
Black smoke was still billowing from the direction of the factory, and the scene was shocking.
"We have to find out what happened here." Su Wanqing said in a dry voice.
She started a system scan, trying to find any valuable information.
"The main road is blocked by zombies, there are at least several thousand of them." The system's cold voice sounded in Su Wanqing's mind.
"If you want to take a detour, there's an abandoned tunnel nearby, marked on the map Lu Zhao left behind."
"Tunnel?" Lin Che frowned. "Is there any risk?"
"It's better than charging directly into the zombie horde." Su Wanqing stood up and patted the dust off her body. "Let's go."
The two men carefully came to the entrance of the tunnel, and a rotten smell hit them in the face.
The entrance to the tunnel was blocked by a burned-out truck riddled with bullet holes, suggesting it had been the site of a fierce battle.
Su Wanqing used her spatial ability to move the truck wreckage away, and the two entered the tunnel.
The tunnel was dark and damp, and only the light from the flashlight could barely illuminate the way ahead.
"Do you feel...that something is amiss here?" Lin Che's voice trembled.
He seemed to sense something, his body tensing. "It's too damp, and... the ground is shaking."
Su Wanqing also noticed something was amiss. More and more water droplets were dripping from the wall, and the ground was indeed shaking slightly, as if something was moving underground.
"Be careful." Su Wanqing said, tightening the dagger in her hand.
As they continued forward, the tunnel grew deeper and deeper, and the light grew dimmer and dimmer.
Suddenly, the flashlight shone on the tunnel wall, and Su Wanqing and Lin Che were both stunned.
The walls were covered with huge gray parasites that clung to them like tumors and emitted a faint fluorescent light.
The surface of the parasite is covered with tiny blood vessels that seem to be wriggling constantly.
“What is this?” Lin Che exclaimed, her voice filled with fear.
"The trigger of the virus." Su Wanqing analyzed calmly, "These things may be the key to causing zombie mutations."
"Trigger body?" Lin Che was puzzled. "What does that mean?"
“My guess is that these parasites release some kind of virus that accelerates the mutation of zombies.
They might have been placed here intentionally." Su Wanqing said.
Suddenly, there was a commotion at the end of the tunnel. A group of figures rushed out from the darkness, targeting Su Wanqing and Lin Che.
These zombies were completely different from the zombies they had encountered before. They were larger, faster, and covered with a thick gray-white shell.
There was no more emptiness and confusion in their eyes, replaced by a ferocious savagery.
"Be careful!" Su Wanqing shouted and pushed Lin Che away.
These special zombies moved swiftly, waving their sharp claws and rushing straight towards Su Wanqing and Lin Che.
Su Wanqing quickly used her spatial ability to create a barrier to block the zombies' attack.
Lin Che also reacted and activated the ultrasonic transmitter.
The shrill sound echoed in the tunnel, and the special zombies' movements slowed down significantly.
But they seemed to be more resistant to ultrasound and quickly regained their mobility. "These zombies... are different," Lin Che said through gritted teeth. "They work as a team, and they're even stronger."
"Don't fight hard, we have to break through!" Su Wanqing said and began to look for opportunities.
At this moment, a low roar suddenly came from the tunnel.
The tunnel walls began to shake and large chunks of rock fell from the ceiling.
"The tunnel is about to collapse!" Lin Che shouted in horror.
Su Wanqing immediately activated her spatial ability and dragged the two of them into the spatial world.
They avoided the collapsed rocks, but also lost the opportunity to break out.
"We are trapped!" Su Wanqing said with a serious expression.
At this moment, she suddenly remembered something and quickly activated the system scan, searching the environment around the tunnel.
"Found it," the system said, "A partially burned document was found inside a destroyed armored vehicle at the checkpoint.
The document mentions the project codename "Lead," along with a mysterious map coordinate that points to a location near the factory.
"'Fuse'?" Su Wanqing frowned. "Could this be related to the crisis at the factory?"
"Also," the system continued, "a hidden supply box was found in the woods next to the checkpoint. It had the base logo on it, and inside was a note written on waterproof material. The handwriting indicated it was left by Lu Zhao."
Su Wanqing and Lin Che immediately headed to the woods and found the supply box hidden in the bushes.
The supply crate contained some food, medical supplies, and a few simple weapons.
Lin Che picked up the note and read it carefully. There was only one line of text on it: "Signal activated, always pay attention."
“Professor Lu Zhao knew what was going to happen here!” Lin Che said, “He left these things behind to help us!”
Su Wanqing combined the contents of the document with the information in the supply box and began to analyze the situation.
She speculated that the explosive growth in the zombie population might be related to some kind of out-of-control virus experiment.
"The 'special inducer' mentioned in the document has most likely been placed in the factory, attracting the surrounding zombies."
Su Wanqing said, "Their goal is to gather zombies at the factory, and then..."
Just as Su Wanqing was thinking, Lin Che suddenly turned pale and his hands began to tremble.
"What's wrong with you?" Su Wanqing asked with concern.
“I…I can’t control my abilities anymore.” Lin Che said, her tone a little horrified.
He tried to use his water ability to bury a corpse, but his power suddenly got out of control, and the accumulated water on the ground spun into a small water column, spinning wildly in the air.
Su Wanqing quickly used her spatial ability to control the water column to avoid causing chaos.
"Calm down," Su Wanqing comforted Lin Che. "Maybe you're just too mentally exhausted, causing your abilities to become unstable."
Lin Che shook his head, his face growing paler. He felt as if the "night" deep within him was whispering and mocking him, making him even more uneasy.
“No…it’s not fatigue,” Lin Che said. “I…I feel…something is controlling me.”
Su Wanqing ignored Lin Che's words. She knew that now was not the time to find out the reason.
They must find Lu Zhao as soon as possible and find out the truth.
"We have to go to the factory now," Su Wanqing said firmly. "No matter what happens, we have to find Professor Lu Zhao and stop them from continuing their dangerous experiments."
