Wasteland Survival Code

Chapter 495 Monsters in the Tunnel
The only light source in the car was the emergency light beside the door that the big man turned on after he came in. The dim red light rendered the whole car an uneasy bloody color.

Neither Qi Lin nor the big man dared to act rashly. No one knew whether the monster above his head would suddenly tear off the steel mesh and iron sheet on the roof of the carriage and jump into the carriage.

The train was still running fast in the tunnel, but at this moment, apart from the friction sound of the wheels and the metal rails and the sharp whistle of the wind blowing through the windows, there were only three extremely depressed breathing sounds.

Two are from Qi Lin and Dahan, and the third is from the top of their heads.

"Pfft!"

Without warning, a sharp claw about ten centimeters long suddenly pierced through the iron sheet on the roof of the carriage and appeared in the sight of the two of them.

This claw is extremely sharp, with a small barb on the front end, a row of sharp sawtooth extending from the tip of the claw to the end, and in the gap between the sawtooth, there is a lot of rotten flesh.

The two looked at each other, and did not attack, but took a step back together.

The shell of this green leather car is very thin, not to mention the sharp claws of mutant creatures, even if you shoot at the car with a [-]-style pistol, the bullets can easily penetrate it.

But just piercing a claw does not mean that this monster can enter the carriage - compared to the fragile iron sheet that makes up the carriage, the protective net welded with steel bars is the real barrier.

Qi Lin bowed his body slightly, holding the Type 56 triangular military thorn tightly in his hand. With his strength, he could easily pierce the military thorn through the skull of a bison from the front until it had no handle. For many mutated creatures, they still couldn't achieve instant fatality.

Facing the dying counterattack of mutant creatures, even the most seasoned hunters must be cautious.

The claw that penetrated the roof of the carriage was withdrawn again, leaving a round hole with a diameter of one inch in the carriage, but it is a pity that, from Qi Lin's angle, looking out through the round hole, he could see everything. less than.

"Tick, tick-"

Just when Qi Lin wondered why the monster didn't continue to tear the car, a faint strange sound came from above, it sounded like something was dripping on the roof of the car.

Is it blood?Is this monster injured?
"Tick-tock, tick-tock... Chi--"

Accompanied by the "tick" sound, there is another even more strange sound. This sound is like throwing an effervescent tablet into the water...

wrong!This is the sound made when strong acid reacts with metal. What dripped on the carriage was not blood at all, but an extremely corrosive acidic substance!
As if to confirm Qi Lin's guess, the top of the carriage was quickly corroded by this substance with several irregular holes. A drop of cloudy liquid leaked from the hole and fell on the floor of the carriage. The foam burst out immediately, and soon, this small drop of liquid etched a small hole in the floor made of patterned steel plates.

"Damn it, this monster is using this thing to corrode steel bars!"

The big man reacted immediately, raised the shotgun, and pulled the trigger on the roof of the car!
"Bang!!"

With a loud noise, dozens of steel balls sprayed out from the gun barrel, pierced through the roof of the car in an instant, and hit the monster.

"hiss--"

The monster on the roof let out a hiss that could tear the eardrums, and there was a creepy piercing sound. The monster being attacked quickly tore off the iron sheet on the roof of the car, and then leaned its upper body into it. In the carriage——

After seeing the true face of the monster, both the big man and Qi Lin gasped.

It was the upper body of a human being. The shoulders, upper arms, protruding collarbone and even the sternum were not much different from humans, but on its neck was a mole-like conical head. .

On this conical head, there are irregularly distributed many cracks, and each crack is a mouth of this monster, which is full of fine and sharp teeth.

Those extremely corrosive acidic liquids are the saliva secreted from these many mouths.

"Damn, what is this?!" The big man let out an exclamation, but the movement in his hands did not stop, and he immediately pulled the second trigger of the double-barreled shotgun.

"Bah!"

The shotgun fired again, but what shot out from the second barrel was not dense steel balls and iron sand, but a single slug!
The slug hit the monster's head, and the huge kinetic energy attached to the bullet directly tore off a large piece of flesh with many fangs and glands from the monster's head—this shot almost killed the monster A quarter of a head!
It stands to reason that after any creature suffers such a severe injury, even if it does not die on the spot, it should lose its ability to fight instantly. However, after losing a quarter of its head, this monster became even more violent, ignoring The sharp iron sheet at the edge of the breach cut a series of dripping wounds on his body, and he desperately burrowed into the compartment.

"Fuck! What the hell is this!" The big man turned pale with fright, and quickly retreated to the edge of the carriage, frantically breaking apart the barrel of the shotgun, ejecting the empty shell, and loading new bullets into the chamber.

Before the bullets of the shotgun were loaded, the monster with the conical head like a drill had already got into the carriage, and landed on the floor of the carriage with a plop.

Until this time, they were able to see the whole picture of the monster clearly.

Except for the piercing head that has no facial features and only a lot of bloody mouths, the part below the neck of the monster is not much different from that of a human being. There is even a dirty and torn pair of clothes on the monster's lower body, which is almost mixed with mud. One piece jeans.

This monster...was supposed to be a human...

It's just that now, after being mutated by radiation, this guy should have been infected with some foreign genes of mutated creatures, plus a virus that mutated completely due to radiation... It has completely become a creature that is not compatible with humans at all. Nothing above.

Where there should have been fingers and palms, only a pair of thick, long and sharp claws remained. On the exposed places such as the chest, shoulders and back, there were pieces of fine black scales embedded in the decayed flesh and blood. Qi Lin noticed that It turned out that although the first shot fired by the big man made the monster's chest bloody, but the place protected by the scales was still intact.

"These scales... should have a protective ability no less than that of ceramic plates..."

The monster that jumped in from the broken car roof stood between the big man and Qi Lin, with a scaly tail that got out of his jeans and dragged behind it, constantly slapping the floor of the car.

The monster has no eyes, but the big man felt that it was staring at him, he couldn't help but panic, the hand holding the bullet trembled, and the deer bullet with a transparent plastic shell filled with steel balls fell to the ground, boneless rolled to the monster's feet.

"..." The big man cursed inwardly, and quickly stretched out his hand to the bullet belt on his chest, trying to find another bullet.

At this moment, the big dog that didn't make a sound suddenly rushed to the edge of the cage and barked at the monster——
