38: Chapter 24 Counterattack (Middle)
Boom, boom, boom, the dense and loud sound of military boots on the stairs was filled with a sense of stress and tension.
Beads of sweat on the forehead of Li Xinlan on the side were pattering down on the carpet.
She had no time to wipe them off, instead, she was hiding behind the door, holding a bullet chain, ready to replace it at any time.
Only seven seconds had passed, and five Nazi zombies rushed up and entered the 12th-floor hallway.
They never expected that someone would ambush them.
However, looking at Tang Zheng lying on the ground with the muzzle pointed at them, they were stunned for less than a second, then they raised their Mauser 98K rifles…
Tatatata, tatatata, Tang Zheng pulled the trigger, the MG42 took the first shot, instantly spitting out a brilliant tongue of fire at the muzzle.
The entire hallway was filled with deafening machinegun fire.
The three Nazi zombies in front didn’t have time to open fire, and were instantly shredded by a bullet storm.
Even though none of them took a headshot, the density of the bullets was enough to tear them apart into limbs and pieces.
A particularly unlucky Nazi zombie soldier was almost immediately torn in half by the bullet rain, collapsing on the carpeted hallway floor.
At the instant the gun sounded, Li Xinlan let go of the bullet chain and held her ears — the dense gunfire was too shocking.
“Holy shit, that’s crazy.” Watching everything on the monitor, Lin Weiguo was so excited that he wished he was the one firing that gun.
Bai Guo had a pale face, the death of the Nazi zombie soldiers was too horrific.
Under the sweep of the bullet rain, they had all shattered into large chunks of flesh.
“Grenade, quick, grenade.” Tang Zheng originally intended to let all the Nazi zombies into the hallway before firing, but the leading soldiers reacted too quickly, and were about to fire as he had no choice but to fire ahead of time.
However, taking down five, the results were already quite good.
“Oh, here you go.” Li Xinlan pulled the pin and handed the smoking grenade to Tang Zheng, then went to get another one.
She knew little Tang probably wanted to blow them up.
Tang Zheng quickly got up from the ground and hurled a grenade towards the staircase.
The M24 hit the wall, bouncing towards the stairs.
Boom, a violent explosion swept the corridor, amidst the smoke filled the once white wall was dropping debris down, some of the stones were red bricks.
“Four more.” Tang Zheng didn’t think about saving any grenades, as long as he could wipe out this team of Nazi zombie soldiers, he would harvest a pile of spoils of war.
He shouldn’t risk his life to save some ammunition.
The M24 long-handle grenade was thrown from Tang Zheng’s hand, drawing a beautiful arc, and landed at the entrance of the stairs.
Boom boom boom boom, the continuous explosion seemed to make the whole building vibrate.
“Good boy, really decisive.” Lin Weiguo loudly praised.
This quick response was perfect, a few grenades thrown over there, even if they couldn’t blow up the zombies’ heads, they could still blow them to pieces.
Without their bodies, they couldn’t counterattack.
“Won’t such a loud noise attract the zombies?” Li Xinlan was a little worried, zombies are very sensitive to sound.
“You’re closer, so you think it’s louder.
If the grenades had all exploded at once, they would have probably been drawn here.” As Tang Zheng spoke these words, he was already holding the MG42 and rushing out, then made a forward dive, squatting at the entrance of the stairs, and began to fire down.
He moved awkwardly due to the ability-induced weakness in his hands and feet.
He almost fell down the stairs due to inertia, but fortunately, he controlled his body.
The stairs were full of dense smoke at that point, nothing could be seen at all, only the sound of Tang Zheng’s machinegun fire could be heard.
“Damn, stop firing, they’re probably all dead.” Lin Weiguo saw clearly from the monitor that when the grenades exploded, none of them fled.
All the Nazi zombie soldiers were wiped out.
Tang Zheng couldn’t hear his words because his walkie-talkie was still lying at the doorway of room 1208.
It wasn’t until he had emptied a 300-round bullet chain that he reluctantly stopped firing, looking down the stairs.
There were corpses everywhere on the stairs.
The blood and broken flesh had almost become a disgusting carpet of flesh and blood.
In addition to the stingy smell of smoke, the strong scent of blood in the air was nauseating.
“A perfect ending.” Tang Zheng moved on, picked up the crooked barreled MG42, and shook his head in regret.
It was destroyed by the grenade.
Li Xinlan, panting heavily, ran over and handed the walkie-talkie to Tang Zheng.
As soon as he got it, he heard Lin Weiguo’s loud curses.
“You reckless fool, couldn’t you wait a tad longer for my instructions before taking action?
My MG42, just like that, gone.” After Lin Weiguo vented for a few seconds, he returned to the main topic, “What is your plan now?
There are three Nazi zombie squads left in the building, a total of thirty-three people.”
“What about Qin Yan and the others?” Tang Zheng took the opportunity to search the battlefield, primarily looking for any fallen Seeds.
He had also checked room 1208 previously, but unfortunately, there was no sign of any Seeds.
“They are trapped in room 602 on the north side of the sixth floor by a zombie squad.
They are safe for now, but if you’re planning to save them, you’ll need to have a strategy.” Lin Weiguo knew Tang Zheng would go to save them and didn’t bother discouraging him, instead he started to think of a plan.
“Which floors are the other two zombie squads on?” Tang Zheng’s eyes lit up as he found a Silver Seed under the body of the non-commissioned officer.
It was similar in appearance to the Golden Seed and also had an aura, the only difference was its pure silver color, which made it gleam brightly.
“Ninth and fifth floor.” Bai Guo snatched the walkie-talkie from Lin Weiguo and pleaded with Tang Zheng in a crying voice, “Please, go save Sister Qin Yan.
They won’t be able to hold on for much longer.”
“Damn it.” A string of curses from Lin Weiguo echoed from the walkie-talkie, causing Bai Guo to cry even more.
“Please, I beg you.”
“What happened?” Tang Zheng frowned deeply enough to pinch a crab to death between his brows, as he didn’t feel that Lin Weiguo was the type of man who would abuse women verbally.
“Someone must have died.
I heard sudden screams from the stewardesses via the sound pickup.” Lin Weiguo finished, and started cursing again, “Think it over.
An impulsive act could also turn you into a dead body.”
After saying this, Lin Weiguo slapped himself hard on the right cheek.
He didn’t know why he had asked that question.
He didn’t want Tang Zheng to risk his life to save those people, but he also didn’t want to see Tang Zheng ignore the lives of others.
This conflicting thought frustrated him.
“Wait for me, I’m coming right now.” Tang Zheng didn’t hesitate, picked up the machine gun and rushed back to 1208.
He was going back to get the ammunition box and grenades.
As for who had died, he didn’t dare to ask.
“Good, I’ll go with you.
We’re not cowards.” Lin Weiguo suddenly felt very relieved, a long-lost fervor surged in his heart.
He felt lucky to know a ‘fool’ like Tang Zheng.
“Tang Zheng, I’ll go with you.” Li Xinlan picked up the ammunition box before him and looked directly at Tang Zheng, showing no sign of retreating.
“No, stay here, it’s safe.” After saying this, Tang Zheng grabbed the ammunition box and started running out.
Li Xinlan didn’t listen to him and stubbornly followed him carrying a large travel bag.
“I’ll take the elevator straight down, avoiding the Nazi zombies on the eighth floor.
Old Lin, you stay in the security room and monitor.
I need an ‘eye’ to watch the movements of the Nazi zombies.” At this moment, Tang Zheng felt very lucky that they had cleared out the security room earlier, and the zombies in the hallway on the sixth floor too.
Otherwise, there would be nowhere to hide.
Even going down the elevator would feel insecure.
Actually, the survivors hiding in room 602 are also feeling lucky.
They are happy they cleaned out the sixth floor during the day and are familiar with the layout.
But their relief is short-lived, as compared to the normal zombies that only pounce when close, these indestructible Nazi zombie soldiers armed with firearms were a waking nightmare.
