Chapter 33: The Fog Spider

The street under the thick fog looked extremely strange, and even the sunlight was almost completely blocked.

Lin Xian and KIKI drove to an empty road and suddenly stopped the car.

“Something’s not right.”

Lin Xian also felt a strange aura at this time. He immediately drew his short knife from behind him, his face full of vigilance.

Rustle~

Pat, pat, pat~

The sound came from far to near, and soon turned into a tsunami-like roar.

Hearing this sound, the two of them’s faces immediately changed!

“Zombies?” Lin Xian cried out.

“It doesn’t seem like it…”

As they spoke, in the thick fog in front of the motorcycle, a few zombies suddenly rushed out. Lin Xian looked and saw that these zombies were very different from the ones he had encountered before. Their skin was gray and rotten, and they ran quickly. Some even ran on all fours like animals.

This scene reminded him of ‘Old Man Li’ whom he had encountered on the night he saved KIKI in the Jiang City shelter!

In the blink of an eye, a tide of zombies rushed out from behind these strange corpses. KIKI’s little face turned pale with fright. She immediately let out a soft cry, “Hold on tight!”

Then she released the brake and slammed on the accelerator. The rear wheel of the motorcycle spun rapidly under the strong traction, rubbing out a cloud of white smoke on the ground.

“Forward!”

Without a word, Lin Xian raised his hand and shot an Air Cannon forward, blowing the head of a strange male corpse that had pounced on him in the middle of the street!

Ugh!!!!

Shrill cries rose from all sides. The motorcycle shot out, barely avoiding the claws of a few strange corpses. Lin Xian was on high alert. He sat in the back, holding a knife in his right hand and slashing, while his left hand continuously shot out Air Cannons, starting to flee from the continuous tide of zombies.

Bang!

An Air Cannon cut a female corpse in half at the waist. At this time, a black strange insect was also blasted out from the back of the corpse. Lin Xian looked and his expression immediately sank.

“These are not ordinary zombies!”

He was shocked. According to his past experience, didn’t these strange creatures only appear at night? How could they appear outside in broad daylight?

“Damn it!”

KIKI, who was driving, saw more than a dozen strange corpses pouncing on her in an instant. In a panic, she gritted her teeth and waved her hand. Omm! A powerful shockwave appeared, instantly sending the strange corpses in front of her flying, and the motorcycle also successfully broke through the encirclement.

Seeing KIKI make a move, Lin Xian immediately felt that something was wrong. The motorcycle’s handlebars trembled slightly. He tilted his head and saw that KIKI’s face had turned visibly pale, so her hands controlling the motorcycle were also trembling.

He immediately activated his Mechanical Heart to control the motorcycle. Just as KIKI was wondering why the motorcycle was suddenly out of control, Lin Xian behind her suddenly pulled her to the back seat, while he got on the front seat, closed the throttle, and moved forward again.

“Oh, what are you doing~”

“There’s something wrong with this fog. Don’t use your ability casually!”

All the survivors knew that terrifying strange creatures would appear at night. It was daytime now. Lin Xian had thought that with him and KIKI, two ability users, they should be able to deal with it casually. But at this time, the appearance of these strange corpses caught Lin Xian off guard.

These strange creatures were much faster than zombies. Ordinary people without firearms would not even have time to react. This immediately made him want to retreat. If strange creatures could appear in the thick fog, didn’t that mean that it was very likely that something similar to the white giant monster or the crimson giant centipede would appear?

Lin Xian’s thoughts turned, and he immediately prepared to give up his original goal.

“Turn left ahead.” KIKI behind him might have felt her own weakness. She rarely bickered with Lin Xian and instead hugged his back obediently like a kitten.

She was already a little cold. At this time, after using her ability, she felt even colder all over, so she unconsciously hugged Lin Xian tightly, enduring the pounding of her heart to seek the warmth from Lin Xian’s back.

“We probably can’t go to the place you mentioned. Let’s go back!” Lin Xian said decisively.

KIKI looked back at the tide of zombies behind the motorcycle, her face ugly as she complained, “How can we go back…”

Lin Xian looked at the rearview mirror and then at the map. If he wanted to return to Beiwang Station, besides going back the way he came, he could only bypass the city’s outer road. Now that he was being chased by a tide of zombies, he couldn’t turn back at all.

Just then, a sharp sound of breaking through the air sounded. Lin Xian looked at the thick fog ahead and immediately felt the hair on his body stand on end!

He decisively squeezed the brake and turned the front of the car. The next second, something like a bamboo pole suddenly shot down from above. With a ding, it stuck into the ground next to the two of them, smashing a small pit in the cement ground, and rubble flew everywhere!

Lin Xian immediately broke out in a cold sweat. If he hadn’t subconsciously turned a corner just now, he might have been pierced through by this thing.

“What is this thing?!” KIKI exclaimed.

The rear wheel of the motorcycle spun wildly, making a piercing screeching sound. Just as it had driven a few meters, the sound of breaking through the air sounded again.

“Be careful!”

Dong!

Another sharp pillar fell from above. Lin Xian twisted the front of the car and almost hit it head-on.

This time, he saw it more clearly. This ‘bamboo-like pillar’ seemed to be covered with black, fine fluff. It looked like some kind of living creature.

“Bad guy, look up!”

At this time, KIKI patted Lin Xian’s shoulder in terror. Lin Xian immediately looked up.

He saw a huge spider-shaped black shadow in the fog above their heads. The outlines of the buildings on the street seemed a little short in front of it. The six disproportionately long and slender spider legs seemed to be more than ten meters long. And the thing that had just shot down from above was obviously two of this thing’s spider claws.

“What the hell…” Lin Xian’s pupils trembled slightly, and he cursed inwardly. Why did whatever he said come true?

This strange and huge spider made people’s san value drop wildly. Lin Xian didn’t even think about it and directly slammed on the accelerator and rushed into the thick fog ahead.

“So annoying, why is it either insects or spiders!!” KIKI shrank her neck and hugged Lin Xian tightly, cursing.

Lin Xian’s expression was tense at this time, and he was concentrating on the road in the fog ahead.

Dong~ Dong! Dong! Dong!

The strange spider had obviously targeted Lin Xian. Its several long and slender legs moved quickly, constantly stabbing down from the thick fog with its long legs!

“To the left!” KIKI shouted.

Lin Xian quickly changed direction.

“Above!”

Lin Xian squeezed the brake again.

But the strange spider’s legs were too long, and its speed of moving quickly between the buildings was much faster than Lin Xian’s.

Dong~ Dong! Dong! Dong!

He only heard a giant creature constantly climbing the buildings above. In just a moment, the strange spider stretched out several long legs and inserted them in the intersection in advance, blocking Lin Xian’s way as if playing with its prey.

“Damn it!”

Seeing the giant spider slowly descending from the thick fog ahead, Lin Xian was about to raise his hand and shoot an Air Cannon.

Who knew that at this time, the roar of a car engine suddenly exploded. A white searchlight pierced through the thick fog from the other direction of the intersection, and in an instant, a huge modified pickup truck rushed out!

Bang!

The huge impact knocked down several of the giant spider’s long legs, and the giant spider lost its balance and fell down.

In a flash, the modified pickup truck made a flexible and elegant drift and stopped in front of the two of them.

Clang!

The rear panel of the pickup truck was lowered, and a girl of about eleven or twelve years old cried out to the two of them, “Get on!”

Lin Xian immediately understood. Without much hesitation, he directly squeezed the accelerator and drove the motorcycle onto the back of the pickup truck. The little girl immediately patted the side of the car panel. “Okay, brother!”

Boom~

Without a moment’s delay, the modified pickup truck slammed on the accelerator and rushed out.

At this time, the strange spider seemed to feel that it had been tricked. It let out an angry roar, and its six long legs frantically climbed up from the ground and quickly chased after the pickup truck.
