Chapter 258
Chapter 258
This room was supposed to be a great size.
But at this moment, Chen Xiaoxiu and Zhang Xuze walked in here, and the first feeling was as if they had walked into a nightmare!
......
In the room, on the floor, in the corner, on the ceiling... Everywhere is densely packed and full....
Corpse!
Yes, it's a corpse!
These corpses are varied, including humanoid zombies, giant mutant mice, and pet mutant animals common in cities such as cats and dogs...
With just a cursory glance, at least twenty corpses were piled up here!
This is not the most terrifying, the most terrifying thing is....
There is no blood on the ground!
All the corpses, piled up in the room in various colors, were covered with a thick layer of transparency... Wax?
Yes, it's like it's covered in a thick, but transparent layer of wax!
It was as if something had wrapped these corpses in wax, carefully preserved them, and then piled them up and stored here!
Chen Xiaoxiu even saw that overhead, in the corner of the room, there was a corpse hanging there, and the wax layer on the body had not completely solidified, as if there was still mucus dripping down.
And on the other end, there is still slime sticking to the ceiling! The corpse was wrapped in mucus and wobbled, but the slime was very strong and would not fall!
All the corpses were in different forms of death.
Some have their bodies torn into several pieces, some have their heads torn off, some are half-amputated corpses....
But because they are all covered with a thick layer of mucus and wax, there is no blood in this room!
This is very strange!
The smell of that wax was very fishy, so I couldn't smell blood at all, but the strong smell of wax was overwhelming, so that Chen Xiaoxiu and Zhang Xuze almost turned around and ran!
The two covered their mouths and noses hard, but they couldn't stop the strong waxy smell from penetrating into their noses.
"!" Chen Xiaoxiu covered her nose: "The smell here is like a nightmare!"
Zhang Xuze's expression became distorted: "This environment, this smell, is simply like walking into the most terrifying nightmare in the world."
Looking at this terrifying environment, Chen Xiaoxiu covered his mouth and nose while paying attention to the traces here, and suddenly, he saw that there was nothing on the part of the mucus on the ground, but at this moment, the state formed after these mucus solidified was very similar to the imprint left by some creature.
So Chen Xiaoxiu leaned over, shone the flashlight in his hand on this imprint, and carefully observed.
Zhang Xuze who was still silent not far away in the terrifying atmosphere created by these terrifying wax figures noticed Chen Xiaoxiu's movements, and he forcibly endured the feeling of nausea and wanting to snatch the door and escape, and said: "Chen Xiaoxiu, have you found anything?"
Chen Xiaoxiu glanced back at him and nodded, "Yes, look at this."
So Zhang Xuze also shone a flashlight and saw the imprint solidified on the ground.
"This, it looks like some kind of creature has been lying here."
"Chen Xiaoxiu, you see, this mark looks like a huge irregular oval, the upper end is more pointed, the lower end is more rounded, and then there are several other small circle marks on the left and right, what kind of creature do you think this looks like?"
When Chen Xiaoxiu heard this, he looked at this mark again, and immediately thought of a creature and said, "It's a toad!"
Zhang Xuze nodded and said, "I also think it's a toad, so the appearance of these corpses here means that this mutant toad has killed all the zombies and mutant creatures in the vicinity and concentrated them."
"The solidified wax liquid on these wax figures, I think it should be the body fluid of the toad."
"But..."
"What is this toad gathering so many corpses for?"
Chen Xiaoxiu also stood up a little puzzled, he walked to the nearest first wax shell, and gently knocked it with his hand, it was very brittle and hard. Chen Xiaoxiu's heart suddenly moved, and he suddenly remembered an idea!
He took a closer look at the distribution of these wax figures in the room, and then understood.
"Zhang Xuze, this toad is actually building a nest by gathering so many corpses!"
"Nesting? So do these corpses have any specific role here? Hearing
this question, Chen Xiaoxiu was also a little confused.
Hoarding so many corpses, it should be impossible to eat them all at once, it may be ... Stock up on food? Or is it something else?
Just as the two were thinking about the role of this wax figure here, the belly of a wax figure suddenly made a crisp sound: "Snap!
In this quiet environment, such a voice sounded particularly obvious at this moment, and the two of them immediately turned their heads to look at the wax figure!
"What's the situation?"
"What sound does this wax figure seem to make?"
The two couldn't help but glance at each other, and then slowly leaned over....
Suddenly, the belly of this wax figure once again emitted a crisp "Snap!" "
Then this wax figure jerked forward!
Then the abdomen slowly retracted again, and after a few seconds, the abdomen jerked forward again, but this time did not retract, and the amplitude of the forward thrust became larger and larger!
Seeing this situation, Zhang Xuze and Chen Xiaoxiu both had the same feeling.
The appearance of this abdomen rising up is obviously not the action of the wax figure itself, but more like that there is some kind of creature in the wax figure's body, and it is about to break out of the belly at this moment!
As the abdomen of the wax figure in front of him rose more and more, it finally broke open into three or four petals, and a large amount of blood spilled out at the same time!
With the spilled blood, a flesh-white creature rushed out of it!
It fell to the ground, and before Chen Xiaoxiu and Zhang Xuze could react, it disappeared in an instant!
But both saw the creature's general appearance.
"That one just now was... Tadpole? Zhang Xuze said with some disbelief, and at the same time turned his head to look at Chen Xiaoxiu.
Although Chen Xiaoxiu didn't quite believe it in his heart, the creature that broke out of its belly just now, judging from its appearance, was indeed a tadpole!
But what Chen Xiaoxiu couldn't believe was that in this apocalyptic evolutionary era, mutant creatures could actually be produced?
Also, the appearance of this tadpole breaking out of its belly just now made Chen Xiaoxiu can't help but think of a monster movie "Alien" that he watched in his previous life.
Even if I don't believe this fact in my heart, now this is the reality in front of you!
"Obviously, mutant creatures have evolved to a more high-end level, they can not only guarantee their own strength, but also produce offspring, and cultivate more strong people of the same level!"
Zhang Xuze said this result with difficulty!
When Chen Xiaoxiu heard this, now he also understood that the further evolution of human beings is urgent, if these monsters are allowed to become more powerful, and human beings are allowed to stop, then extinction is the end of human beings!
