The commando team's only advantage now was their firearms.
In this world, guns and ammunition still had great lethality.
Even Chen Zhao didn't dare to say that he was immune to all firearms.
However, the firearms they were equipped with needed a wide field of vision to be most effective.
Outside the building, their firearms were limited by the fog and couldn't capture the enemy immediately.
But in the maze, there were too many obstacles, making it harder for their firearms to be effective.
Chen Zhao could see this problem, and so could Luzenk.
However, people would develop psychological problems if they stayed in the fog for too long.
Even Luzenk felt the pressure in his body and mind.
He didn't know if he continued to stay in the fog.
Would the commando team break down first?
So, he had to enter the building.
The supermarket's electricity was still running. The entire place was brightly lit.
However, there was no one.
Everyone heaved a long sigh of relief.
It was as if all the pressure in their hearts had been released.
Chen Zhao also entered the supermarket.
He realized that there were no magic spores here.
That shouldn't be the case.
Although the supermarket was a sealed space, it wasn't truly sealed.
There shouldn't be any magic spores, right?
But after thinking about it, Chen Zhao understood what was going on.
The existence of magic spores depended on the spread of the mist.
However, large supermarkets like this all had air purifiers.
Those high-powered air purifiers directly cleared the fog and magic spores in the air.
"Leader, the air quality is good."
"Don't take off all the isolation suits yet," Luzenk said. "I'll take them off first. If I have any adverse reactions in ten minutes, immediately inject me with a neutralizer."
Luzenk still chose to be cautious.
However, ten minutes later, Luzenk could finally confirm that there were no harmful gases in the air.
"Okay, take off your isolation suits and breathe in the fresh air."
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
Bang —
Suddenly, a voice made everyone tense up, even though they had just relaxed.
Everyone pointed their guns at the source of the sound.
It was a living corpse with pustules all over its body.
However, this living corpse wasn't like the flesh and blood they'd seen before.
The body of this living corpse was filled with a metallic luster.
"You … Merrick … It's you?"
Everyone looked at Merrick in disbelief.
He could still vaguely make out Merrick's face.
It wasn't just Merrick who had been infected by the magic spores.
Furthermore, there were three pairs of arms on his back.
Everyone was a little surprised.
He didn't expect it to only disappear for a little more than an hour.
That was what Merrick had become.
Bang –
Lucenc raised his Desert Eagle and fired a shot at Merrick's head.
Merrick tilted his head back slightly.
The bullet was embedded in Merrick's forehead.
The skin on Merrick's forehead twitched, and the bullet fell to the ground.
Everyone was shocked.
Bang –
Suddenly, another loud noise came from behind.
Then, a giant beast blocked the assault team's path.
The giant beast smashed through two rows of shelves on the left and right, glaring at the assault team members with ferocious eyes.
It looked like a dog.
To be precise, he was a dog when he was alive.
But at this moment, it had already severed its relationship with the dog.
It was much larger than Merrick.
It was at least four meters long. Its entire body seemed to be severely scalded. Almost all of its skin had fallen off.
It was covered in blood and smoke rose faintly from its body.
Sharp bone spikes grew out of its joints.
Then, more loud noises came from the assault team's right.
Rows of shelves were flipped over and sent flying.
The assault team turned around.
It was a living corpse that looked like a mountain gorilla.
One could still vaguely tell what the corpse used to look like.
However, its forelimbs had clearly evolved much faster than its hind limbs.
Merrick, the zombie dog, and the gorilla monster stood in a triangle, surrounding the assault team.
The assault team's faces were extremely pale. They all looked at the three monsters in fear.
Luxenberg was also at a loss.
Suddenly, he saw a figure sitting on one of the shelves.
Luxenberg's eyes narrowed. It's that person!
Is he a human or an infected corpse?
Luxenberg wasn't sure.
Chen Zhao sat on the top of the shelf with his legs crossed, watching the situation below.
Chen Zhao met Luxenberg's gaze and grinned. He waved at Luxenberg.
"You're not infected?"
Hearing Luxenberg's words, everyone looked up at Chen Zhao too.
"How is that possible? You're not dead? "
"Why are you here?"
"Why do you think I'm dead?" Chen Zhao chuckled.
"You're alone and don't have any equipment. How can you avoid these monsters?"
"Ha …" Chen Zhao chuckled. He clearly wasn't going to answer this question.
"Do you still have time to ask me questions?"
"We don't have much time. Do you?"
One had to admit that Luxenberg's intentions were very sinister.
He wanted to lure a monster to attack Chen Zhao.
That way, they could retreat from the encirclement.
If the three monsters surrounded them from three directions …
Their chances of winning weren't high.
But if they could lure a monster to attack Chen Zhao, their pressure would be greatly reduced.
Moreover, after a short encounter, they realized that these monsters were very, very smart.
Apart from being irrational, they weren't any less intelligent than humans.
Apart from their lack of rationality, their intelligence was no less than that of humans.
Their battle instincts were even stronger than humans.
Everyone in the assault team was armed to the teeth. They knew what to do.
They might not be able to win against the assault team head-on.
Even Merrick, who could block bullets.
It didn't mean that he could remain unscathed against firearms.
After all, it was only the Desert Eagle that attacked him just now.
The assault team's automatic rifles were much more powerful than the Desert Eagle.
Moreover, there were other firearms.
For example, explosive grenades.
They were enough to cause damage to him.
They weren't fatal, but they were still a great threat.
As expected, Merrick turned to look at Chen Zhao.
Merrick wasn't the Merrick of the past anymore.
However, it had a very good understanding of firearms.
Therefore, he instinctively thought that it wasn't worth it to fight the assault team head-on.
Moreover, there were two living corpses that weren't weaker than him.
If he advanced too recklessly and got heavily injured, the two monsters would seize the opportunity and swallow him whole.
He was more willing to be like before. When the sandpiper and clam fought, he would be the fisherman.
Merrick slowly took a few steps back.
Luxenberg was overjoyed.
It seemed that his plan had succeeded.
As expected, Merrick retreated.
The perfect encirclement already had a hole.
