The world of American TV series: Starting with the L.A. Patrol.

Chapter 136

One of the two ogres was carrying a Remington M870 shotgun and wielding a machete to clear the way in front. The other was carrying a roll of barbed wire and following behind with a wire crossbow. They seemed to be arguing. They were talking about something and pushing each other from time to time.

Just as she was about to pass by, Jessie suddenly stood up from the bushes. The ogre following behind heard the movement and looked at her subconsciously.

The next moment, the crossbow in Jessie's hand was activated, and a crossbow arrow accurately shot into the cheek of the ogre closest to her.

The heavy tungsten steel arrow carried huge kinetic energy, easily penetrated the facial bones, shattered the cerebellum and brainstem, and continued unabated, passing through the back of the skull until most of the arrow shaft was exposed.

The corpse fell heavily to the ground, and the other ogre roared, waving the machete in his hand and about to pounce on Jessie.

"piu"

With a soft sound, the 7.5MM hollow-point bullet exploded with a power that was extremely inconsistent with the sound it made. After forming a huge cavity in its abdomen, it shattered its spine.

The nerves in the lower body of this ogre were severed, its legs weakened, and it fell to the ground. However, it did not die immediately. It was still struggling to prop up its upper body and tried to attack people approaching it with the machete in its hand.

It was really fierce. Jack stepped forward and stepped on its right hand holding the knife.

"Hey, can you understand me?"

The only response he received was vague curses, which were completely incomprehensible.

"We can't communicate." He reached out and asked Jessie for the saber, stabbed it into the back of the ogre's neck and severed its medulla oblongata.

Seeing that this thing was silent and dead, Jack wiped the knife back and forth on the guy's dirty coat and handed it back to Jessie.

Kicking the two corpses over, he endured the stench and strong visual impact and made a general inspection.

The good news is that these guys are indeed human beings, not extraordinary creatures.

I don’t know if it’s caused by environmental factors, inbreeding, or a combination of both. These guys generally have congenital deformities such as cleft lip and palate, ear deformities, facial clefts, and widening of the eyes.

After opening the clothes, you can see that there are various hemangioma, abnormal bone development, and covered with pustules and skin hyperplasia that occurs after the pustules heal.

The bad news is that these guys seem to have inherited a certain degree of pain insensitivity, or are insensitive to pain. They have large and small scars all over their bodies, and they don’t know how they survived to adulthood.

No wonder a few of them had been shot before and fled back as if nothing was wrong, but Jack estimated that those ones wouldn't survive. Without specialized surgery, blood loss and infection alone could kill them.

Watching him finish checking the two corpses, Jessie's face turned pale and her body was swaying a little precariously. She quickly held on to the tree trunk nearby.

"What kind of monsters are these?"

"Regarded as a degenerate savage?"

Jack shrugged. The North American continent is vast and sparsely populated with outstanding people. It is prone to train derailments and chemical pollution. In addition, the American government has a tradition of conducting radiation experiments on its own citizens and biochemical experiments. The emergence of such a thing is not enough. Strange.

"Hurry up, we still have a long way to go."

Jack held the barrel of the Remington M870 and smashed it directly on the ground. He also used a dogleg knife to cut off the crossbow wire, leaving only a bag of crossbow arrows. Then he threw all the garbage and the body into the bushes. Pulling Jessie forward.

Although the dirt road before was dilapidated, it was still possible to drive. The round trip from the gas station to the scene of the accident only took half an hour, but walking on the forest path seemed extremely difficult.

Jessie's physical fitness was quite good, but after two hours of arduous trekking, she finally couldn't hold on any longer and sat down on the ground.

Seeing the familiar river beach appear again in front of him, Jack took out a bottle of water and two chocolates from the hiking bag on his back.

"Eat something and replenish your strength. There are still two hours until dark, and we still have a long way to go."

Jessie drank half the bottle of water, handed it back to Jack, opened the chocolate wrapper and started eating.

"Do you think we can find François?"

Jack drank the remaining half of the bottle of water in one gulp and looked at the boulder with large blood stains on it.

"Just look for it along the water source. There are quite a few of them and they will definitely leave a lot of traces of their activities nearby. It shouldn't be difficult, but"

"I know I won't cry anymore. If she dies, I just want to kill a few more monsters to avenge her and Evan."

Jessie finished the chocolate in three mouthfuls, picked off a leaf next to her and wiped her hands. It seemed that the girl adapted quickly.

"It depends on the situation. They probably won't kill her right away." Jack expressed his guess.

Seeing her confusion, Jack explained again.

"The refrigerator is full, which means they have had a good harvest recently, and they might be able to raise people for the time being."

Jessie's expression froze, and she didn't know what to say.

Jack carefully sensed the surroundings, confirmed that there was no movement, and gave instructions in a low voice.

"I'll leave a mark on the stone. Just wait for me."

With that said, he drew out a crossbow arrow he got from the ogre and walked towards the river beach.

Evan's body was long gone, but a large pool of blood was left next to the boulder, as well as some scattered internal organ fragments, which attracted a large group of mosquitoes and flies. He was probably dismembered on the spot and then taken away in pieces. .

Jack carefully observed the direction of the blood dripping and determined that it was heading upstream. He pointed the arrow of the crossbow arrow in the upstream direction and picked up two small stones to hold it down.

"Let's go, I hope we can find Francois before dark."

Jack returned to Jessie, stretched out his hand to pull her up, and led her along the edge of the river beach and woods toward the upper reaches of the creek.

The reason for not walking on the river beach was because the surrounding area was too open. Even with his super perception, there was no guarantee that the two of them would not become living targets.

It took more than an hour of arduous trekking, and after climbing over several small mountain ridges, Jessie finally couldn't hold on any longer. Even though she almost relied on Jack's pulling for the second half of the journey, she was almost exhausted.

"How long do we have to walk?" She sat on the ground and gently tapped her sore calf.

"It shouldn't be far. I guess we should be able to find something after climbing over this hill." Jack squinted at a faint smoke rising not far away.

At this time, the sun has gradually set in the west, and the sunset scenery is extremely beautiful. It seems extremely ironic in correspondence with the sin and terror hidden in this forest.

This time Jack didn't let the girl rest for too long. After dark, there were not only threats from ogres, but also predators in the forest.

Sure enough, after climbing up the hill in front of us, an open space in the forest appeared at the foot of the hill. Not far from the river beach, there was a dilapidated wooden house.
