Chapter 1121: Chapter 1109: The Old Xu Rescue Plan Begins (7)
Tang Xiaoquan heard all the commotion outside but had no intention of going out to help. He knew his own capabilities well enough to realize that even if he went, he would only be a burden, causing trouble for Hu and Wei.
However, although he couldn’t go outside, it didn’t mean his mind couldn’t be active.
Upon hearing Hu Xiaodong order Wei Dazhuang to retreat, Tang Xiaoquan couldn’t help but furrow his brow.
Obviously, from his personal standpoint, he didn’t want Wei Dazhuang to fall back.
Of course, it wasn’t that Tang Xiaoquan wished Wei Dazhuang to be in danger. It was the circumstances forcing them; Wei Dazhuang couldn’t retreat.
Why? The reason is very simple.
To explain using gaming terms, the "Climber" at this moment is the BOSS to the survivors, and this BOSS can climb and leap, moving freely.
Coupled with the naturally complex environment inside the building, it provides excellent conditions for the BOSS to hunt.
Thus, to deal with such a troublesome opponent, Tang Xiaoquan believes there must be an MT directly confronting the "Climber".
Then, while the "Climber" battles the MT, the DPS can find an opportunity to strike from the side.
In summary, Tang Xiaoquan hopes Wei Dazhuang can stay in the corridor to play the role of the MT, while Hu Xiaodong acts as the DPS to snipe remotely.
This strategy may be dangerous for Wei Dazhuang, but given the current situation, it must be said it’s a strategy to find life through death.
After all, Hu Xiaodong’s retreat method might increase safety.
Yet, this would also increase the time spent, and in their current location, time is of utmost importance.
The longer it takes, the greater the danger;
The longer it takes, the more zombies will come.
Tang Xiaoquan estimates that the two big commotions made by Wei Dazhuang just now likely have already caught the attention of the surrounding zombies.
Hopefully, the beasts downstairs did not catch wind of this; the "Climber" outside must be dealt with swiftly.
With a solemn emotion, Tang Xiaoquan quickly stood up and moved towards the door.
He needed to alert Hu Xiaodong; otherwise, if this deadlock continued, defeat would be inevitable for their side.
But before Tang Xiaoquan could speak, Hu Xiaodong’s anxious shout came from outside, "Dazhuang, don’t be impulsive! Get back inside! You’re too dangerous there!"
Unfortunately, Wei Dazhuang was never one to follow orders.
Especially regarding zombies, as soon as his killing intent arises, even if God himself were to give orders, he would ignore them entirely.
"**** it, come on! Aren’t you going to eat me!? Your Grandpa Wei is standing right here! Come on, come on if you dare!"
He’s gone mad! This guy is truly crazy!
Seeing Wei Dazhuang standing his ground, waving his scythe to taunt the "Climber", Hu Xiaodong felt a surge of fury rise from the top of his head.
Is this really the time to act so recklessly!
"Wei Dazhuang! You give me..."
"Brother Hu! You won’t be able to call Brother Dazhuang back; you should focus on finding a way to shoot the zombie and save time."
Tang Xiaoquan interrupted Hu Xiaodong’s angry outburst.
After hearing this, Hu Xiaodong was helpless, as the young man was right. Trying to call back Wei Dazhuang now was undoubtedly impossible.
Not only that, but as Hu Xiaodong was urging him, the "Climber" adjusted its posture again and lunged straight towards Wei Dazhuang.
"Haha! You **** eventually came! Come on! Come on!"
Showing absolutely no fear nor dread due to the beast’s sudden attack, Wei Dazhuang gripped his scythe tightly, his eyes bloodshot as he fixedly stared at its approach.
Damn it! Unlike Wei Dazhuang’s fearless, Hu Xiaodong was scared to death seeing his reckless behavior.
Not daring to delay any longer, he quickly raised his compound bow, did a quick aim, and released the shot.
It flew straight forward, the arrow meeting the "Climber" head-on.
Given Hu Xiaodong’s archery techniques, under current conditions, he didn’t need to aim excessively.
Wei Dazhuang prepared for battle, both blades raised high, the "Climber" becoming more apparent in his line of sight.
But just as the beast was about to close in on him, its forward momentum suddenly faltered and it fell to the ground, sliding forward due to inertia.
Reaching just in front of Wei Dazhuang, he swung his blades down heavily, splitting the zombie’s head open like a "watermelon."
Blood gushed out like a fountain, as Wei Dazhuang expressionlessly extracted his blades, then saw a silver Feathered Arrow embedded in the beast’s cracked skull.
"Dazhuang! What were you thinking! Why didn’t you retreat when I told you to! Do you realize just now you nearly lost your life?"
Hu Xiaodong quickly advanced from behind, his heart filled with fire.
Luckily, the room was sealed and there was no wind interference, plus the beast charged in a straight line, allowing him a chance at a one-shot kill.
Otherwise, in a more complex environment, Wei Dazhuang might have already...
Turning his body, Wei Dazhuang glanced at Hu Xiaodong’s angry face. He shrugged his shoulders, indifferent to his words, then wiped the blood from his blade, responding in a deep voice, "No need to worry! I’m not fine, am I!"
"You..."
"Alright! Now’s not the time for this nonsense, don’t forget we still have business to attend to!"
Duan Chengwu came out from the room, coldly interrupting their exchange.
Almost as soon as his voice fell, a rapid pounding sound came from the safety passage door not far away.
Damn it! The beasts are coming!!
"Xiaotang, Xiaowu, you two go set up the sound source! Dazhuang, come with me to deal with the beasts!"
At this moment, Hu Xiaodong couldn’t be bothered with Wei Dazhuang’s defiance.
On the contrary, now he truly needed Wei Dazhuang’s courage.
Everyone understood the urgency of the situation, so without saying much, they split into teams and took action.
"Let’s go!" Skirting around the cleared room, Hu Xiaodong and Wei Dazhuang went to the safety passage door.
Upon arrival, the thick door was rocking back and forth from the impacts.
Through the opened gap, Hu Xiaodong saw silhouettes of zombies outside.
The exact number was unknown, but if the beasts continued to be left unchecked, the gathering numbers would only increase.
"Dazhuang, I won’t say much, for the team’s safety, I hope you maintain calm and don’t act impulsively, okay?"
Nodding, Wei Dazhuang impatiently replied, "Come on, what time is it now, save the unnecessary talk. Just tell me how we do this!"
"You take the left, I take the right; position our bodies against the door, then open the door slightly to let zombies in one by one, then kill them, got it?"
"Got it! Let’s do it!" Wei Dazhuang didn’t hesitate, stepping over to the right side of the safety door.
Seeing the man’s movements, Hu Xiaodong didn’t delay, quickly following and bracing himself against the left side of the door.
One on the left, one on the right, effectively sealing the safety door.
The zombies outside continued to hit, but could only produce muffled thuds in vain.
Undoubtedly, this wasn’t Hu Xiaodong’s fundamental plan. He exchanged a glance with Wei Dazhuang, then said, "Remember, let in one at a time, don’t let in too many!"
