"Ah!!" A panicked scream came.
Dean was shocked and quickly looked back. He saw Mason was surrounded by two Bone Rats and fell to the ground. Zach and Sham didn't watch the show. They stepped forward and punched and kicked the two Bone Rats. They didn't dare to attack with their daggers for fear of accidentally hurting Mason.
Dean's face changed. He quickly pulled out his dagger and rushed over.
"Fuck off!!" Dean roared and kicked one of the Bone Biter Rats in the head with his metal boots. With a bang, the Bone Biter Rat's body fell backward. Zach saw the opportunity and quickly rushed forward, pressing the mouse on top of his body, raised his fist and fiercely pounded its head.
Sham grabbed the tail of the other Bone Rat and didn't let it climb to Mason's face.
Dean had already grasped the experience of dealing with it. He bent down and pulled up the hind leg of the Bone Biter Mouse. He pulled it up directly, swung it hard, and smashed it on the ground. Its sharp little head hit the ground, and the strength of its struggle suddenly weakened.
Dean roared and smashed it again and again. He repeatedly smashed it so that the Bone Rat couldn't find a point to break free from his palm.
After a dozen consecutive smashes, the Bone Rat gradually stopped moving. Its body twitched reflexively. Blood oozed from its hair and stained the ground.
At this time, Mason climbed up from the ground and cooperated with Zach to stab the other Bone Rat to death.
Dean looked at the motionless Bone Rat in his hand. He grabbed his dagger and stabbed it a few times. He was relieved and sat on the ground. He felt that his arm was sore as if it was broken. His whole body was exhausted. He was so tired that he kept gasping for breath. The air filtered by the mask was very slow. It made him feel suffocated and dizzy.
Mason also sat next to him. He leaned back on Dean's back and gasped for breath.
Zach and Sham were in a better state. They still had a lot of physical strength. But looking at the bodies of the Bone Rats on the ground, they were still frightened and pale.
After resting for a while, Mason patted the hair caught between the gaps of his gloves. He gasped: "It was damn dangerous. It almost cut my throat. These damn things."
Dean's breathing gradually became smooth. He looked back at him and said: "This time thanks to you."
Mason snapped: "What are you talking about?"
Dean smiled and no longer said anything.
Zach said with lingering fear: "There are so many Bone Rats here. Didn't the hunters see them? Is it called 'cleaning'?"
Sham said: "Fortunately, our soft armor was tough and didn't get torn. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable."
Dean looked at the rat corpse in front of his feet and recalled his previous battle. His fingers couldn't help but clench his fists. Too bad, his performance was too bad. If Macon hadn't shouted in time, he would have been attacked by the rat from behind.
"You've already done very well. After all, this is the first time you've encountered a battle like this. Even an adult would panic when they see an ordinary dog pouncing at them." While he was blaming himself, another voice in his heart was comforting him. But soon, Dean strangled this weak voice. He tightly bit his lips. The pain invaded his mind. He wanted to let his weakness remember that he only had one life!
In the face of death, excellence and failure were meaningless. The only thing that could save him was the strength to live!
He suddenly understood why the scavengers would only choose from the residential area and the slums, and not from the commercial area's colleges. Because the mortality rate of this job was too high! Although they encountered danger this time, mainly because they came to the eighth area that had just been 'cleaned'. If they went to the ninth area that had been scavenged ten times, the probability of encountering these monsters would be very low.
However, the low probability of danger also meant that the harvest of scavenging was low!
This was a dangerous and valuable profession!
This was very fair.
After the previous battle experience, Dean's heart still had some fear of death. This time they encountered a rat. Would they encounter a more terrible monster next time? Should he follow the group and obediently go back after the mission is over?
He looked at the broken glass door of the supermarket. His heart was filled with retreat. But soon, he thought of his right arm and the scar on it. His eyes suddenly became firm. He climbed up with his palm on the ground and said to Mason and the other two: "Go in. There was such a big movement just now. The few inside should have come out. But maybe there are still some hiding in the dark. Everyone be careful."
Mason, Zach and Sham didn't expect Dean to dare to enter the ruins. They were a little surprised. When they saw his determined eyes, they hesitated for a moment and stood up. They clenched their daggers and were ready to resist the attack.
At this time —
"Ah!!" Suddenly, a shrill scream came from the nearby streets. It was especially loud in the decaying ruins.
Dean and the other three were surprised. They suddenly thought of the rats that they had just encountered. Hearing this shrill scream, there was no doubt that the other side had encountered something. For a time, they hesitated. They didn't know whether they should go to help or not.
Dean was aware of the hesitation in his heart. He thought for a moment and said: "Go and have a look. Be careful. If there is a situation, immediately withdraw!"
Mason and the other two were hesitant. When they heard his words, they immediately nodded. It was as if a stone fell from their hearts.
They ran toward the direction of the scream. At this time, they saw other scavengers also rushed out of other buildings and ran toward the place where the scream came from.
Soon, the scream was getting closer and closer. It was a street corner. Dean immediately slowed down and made a slight gesture. Mason, Zach and Sham immediately understood. They slowed down their pace and slowly followed behind Dean.
Around the corner, Dean looked out. His pupils shrank and his face was full of horror.
He saw the center of the green vegetated street. In front of a broken shop, two figures were twisting on the ground. One was a man and the other was a woman. However, the figure's clothes were tattered, revealing gray and thin skin. Her hair was disheveled and her fingers had turned into sharp claws. It was an Undead!!
A living Undead!!!
At this moment, the female Undead was lying on the struggling young man's body. She was gnawing the flesh on his chest. With Dean's vision, he could see it very clearly. He could even see the blood vessels that were constantly gushing out from the young man's chest. The young man's mouth and neck were dyed red.
At the young man's feet, there was a black figure. It was a woman. Her body was motionless and seemed to be dead.
