In the movie, the bugs are also attracted by the lights and rush into the supermarket, and one of them lands on Mrs. Carmody.The venerable lady, too frightened and motionless, was judged by the worms to be non-threatening and was therefore not attacked.Compared with others who were in a state of embarrassment, she seemed very lucky, so she was full of surprises, claiming that she was blessed by God, and only by listening to her words could she live.

Due to the terrible mental pressure and lack of basic biological knowledge, a group of people really regarded her as the messenger of God, and believed that she was the prophet who could lead them out of desperation.After she was supported, she immediately ordered the lackeys to hurt people, not only killed the soldiers from the base, but also wanted to sacrifice Amanda and Billy with blood, only because the fog was related to the base, and David kept stopping her.

Although Su Miao would not take the initiative to provoke her, she was even less willing to help her.

However, the so-called scourge lasted for thousands of years, Mrs. Carmody stared blankly at the turmoil around her, and remained as dumb as a chicken, so no insect noticed her.

Su Miao fought back the dragonfly that was about to bite Sally, and flipped the other dragonfly back.With experience, the fire ax is quite comfortable to use, but it is a bit heavy.She shook off the worm carcasses stuck on the axe, and looked back to check Billy's safety, when she suddenly heard a terrible cry.

The man with the torch was too close to the window, too busy burning the bugs to pay attention to the tentacles behind him.The tentacles stretched in again, touched his clothes, immediately entangled him like a dog food bag, and pulled it out.

Several people nearby rushed to rescue him, and stopped halfway through the run, watching him being dragged away.Blood splashed all the way, and his miserable cry gradually disappeared.

It can't be blamed for their lack of courage, because several giant birds rushed straight to the supermarket from the window, grabbed the nearest bug, and flew all over the supermarket in their claws.Their intelligence and eyesight are much higher than those of worms. Unfortunately, one of them was hit in the chest by a bat, and immediately entered an attacking state, desperately flying towards the owner of the bat.

These birds are about the size of small pterosaurs, and their beaks are so sharp that a single peck can leave a bloody hole.That man could be considered a burly man, but facing its pounce, peck and bite, he had no ability to resist, and could only yell for help.

Su Miao looked at it with a wingspan of three to four meters, and her heart was beating wildly. After all, she didn't dare to go forward to save people, but shouted: "Ollie!"

Another bullet fired, piercing first the wings and then the body.The giant bird held the flesh and blood of the man's neck in its beak, and when it tilted its head, it fell sideways, still writhing like its prey.The man couldn't get up again, the struggle turned into convulsions, the convulsions turned into tremors, and finally he couldn't even maintain the tremors and died completely.

The only good news is that the giant bird feeds on flying insects and only cares about chasing them, seldom paying attention to humans.When the flying insects found the natural enemy, they were also terrified, and rushed out of the supermarket to escape.

The scene was calm after all.

For a while, everyone didn't speak, and stood there like a puppet, staring blankly at the corpse on the ground.This man's name is Hope. He does some miscellaneous work such as repairing water pipes, building houses, and driving away wild animals. He is also an ordinary resident of the town and has a happy family.But after the person died, all this became a bubble.

"...Let's go to the warehouse," Bud said again, as if he had aged ten years. "At least the door there is made of iron, so it's not so easy to be broken by... monsters."

Su Miao made this suggestion before, but it was ruthlessly rejected. After all, encountering a monster in the fog is already extremely unlucky, and no one wants to sleep in a dark warehouse to make their situation worse.In fact, Su Miao herself didn't want to go in, and only slept near the warehouse with people who believed in her, and none of them were hurt.

She frowned and said, "Actually, you don't have to be so nervous, just get close to the warehouse. If a monster rushes in, move to a safe place immediately..."

As usual, few people were willing to listen to her.They carried food and blankets, as well as various weapons, and walked into the warehouse like army ants.Su Miao stood by the door and looked at them, like an invisible person, so angry that she forgot to be afraid.

"Should this be due to my age, appearance, or character?" She muttered, until Mrs. Rapler patted her, then grunted a few times, and followed the crowd into the door.

Warehouses are places where supermarkets store goods and must be kept cool and dry. Therefore, there is no heating in winter, but air conditioning is required in summer to maintain low humidity.In other words, this broken environment is not suitable for ordinary people to live in.Not to mention those elderly gentlemen and wives, even Su Miao shivered.

The worst part is not the temperature, but the smell.There was a strange smell in the warehouse, which was pungent and slightly stench, which made people feel irritable.No one knew where the smell came from, the only thing that was certain was that the ventilation here was poor.

"What do you think?" Amanda asked quietly.

Su Miao turned around with a serious face, and found that this place was bigger and dirtier than the movie set.Even if so many people want to sleep here, there is absolutely no problem, but she smelled a strange smell in her nose, and heard the sound of the engine in her ears, and finally replied: "I'd better go out and sleep, just sleep in the place before sleeping." , everything else is fine, I can't stand the smell."

Billy's fever had just subsided, and it got worse again after being frightened by strange birds and flying insects.David nodded, "I'm going out too. If I sleep in this damn place until dawn, Billy will have a fever again."

Mrs. Rapler and Dan are both old and don't want to sleep in the warehouse. However, the large army has already moved, so they have to follow them. Now that they are going out, they can't wait.After explaining to Bud, David went straight out.At this time, Ollie said to Bud: "Then I will stand guard outside the warehouse door. If something happens, I can also help them."

Bud had turned off all the lights in the supermarket, and it was pitch black outside.By the light of the flashlight, this team of old and weak women and children worked together to form a circle around the shelves, revealing only the gap leading to the warehouse.They spread the blankets in the very center of the circle, and without being particular, they just lay down in such a mess.After a while, a steady and long breathing sounded from Su Miao's side.

This time, most of the people were asleep, but Su Miao was sleepy, lying on her back with her eyes wide open, blinking occasionally.At first, she could still hear voices coming from the warehouse, but later, these voices gradually disappeared, and the calm that should have been restored in the early morning.

The dense fog slipped in quietly along the broken part of the window, and wandered around, bringing a little damp coolness.But the sky was dark and deep, whether there was fog or not, it didn't prevent them from seeing anything.It wasn't until about eight o'clock in the morning that a faint light penetrated outside, letting people know that the long night was over and the day was coming.

Su Miao went to the wall socket, turned on the phone, and found that the battery was fully charged, so she unplugged it.Mrs. Rapler was a light sleeper, and when she was disturbed, she woke up, turned over and sat up, looked around, and said not very excitedly: "It turns out that the fog has not dissipated, and now I have begun to doubt whether it will won't go away..."

"Always hold on to hope, ma'am." Ollie's comfort came from the warehouse door.

A few flashlights were turned on again, so that those who were still sleeping woke up one after another.Su Miao heard David asking Billy, "Are you hungry, do you want to get some milk for you?"

She glanced at her phone one last time. On the screen, the four-hour countdown was ticking by.Then, she turned it off directly and said, "I'll get it, do you need anything?"

In such an environment, almost no one cares about what to eat for breakfast.They poured oatmeal into cold milk, cold ham in bread, and ate a breakfast they would never forget.In fact, it is not impossible to eat hot food. There are simple cooking tools and stoves in the deli section of the supermarket. However, even Billy refused the proposal of "make you a scrambled egg", and the others were completely uninterested. .

"Should I call them?" Mrs. Rapler asked. "There is no light in the warehouse, and they may still be asleep. But by this time, it is time to get up and eat something, and discuss it..."

"Oh!"

Su Miao was about to stop her, wanted to speak out her plan first, but before she could open her mouth, she heard a dull crashing sound, which came from inside the iron gate of the warehouse.Everyone was terrified by what happened last night, they all froze and exchanged glances.In the misty mist, every face is full of doubts and fears, and every pair of eyes is flashing with an unknown light.

"Boom! Boom!"

The thing slammed into it twice more, accompanied by the clang of the metal door. Fortunately, judging from the loudness of the sound, it was not the door between the warehouse and the supermarket that was hit.Ollie quickly drew out his pistol.Su Miao shuddered, and turned around to get the fire ax she put on the shelf.David pushed Billy to Amanda, and ran to the iron door a few steps, trying to find out what happened.

However, just after he took two steps, the iron door slammed open.A group of people headed by the supermarket employee Jim rushed out of the warehouse with ashen faces.As the manager, Bud did his part to stay in the back, but as soon as he went out, he immediately turned around and locked the door tightly.

During this process, people outside can still hear the impact inside.

"What's wrong?" Su Miao asked with a frown.

Bud said tremblingly: "I don't know, anyway, something is hitting the big iron door outside. When we went to see, the door has been dented. I don't know if it's the tentacles or the one that looks like a lobster." monster."

The big iron door is a common rolling shutter door in shopping malls. It is big and thick, and it can't be an ordinary bug if it can be dented.If it's a tentacles, there's still a chance of repelling it, but if it's a lobster...

Su Miao looked at the abandoned warehouse and at the open window, gritted her teeth and said, "Listen to me, this place is no longer safe. Even if it gives up after knocking for a while, do you dare to go back? We We have to make a decision as soon as possible, whether to stay here and defend, or to escape as soon as possible."
