The Devil’s Cage

Chapter 514 Suffocation

After one hour.

The convoy from West Coast City had to stop.

A huge and jaw-dropping crater blocks the way forward.

The meteorite with a radius of more than 100 meters and a depth of more than 30 meters not only completely destroyed the road between West Coast City and Holons Harbor, but also affected the surrounding areas.

Especially in the pit, there is still hot residue. Although it will not burn the sole of the shoe, the exposed skin can still feel the heat.

Qin Ran frowned slightly as he looked at the crater in front of him, and began to explore the surroundings.

The traces on the ground were almost completely destroyed by the shock wave of the meteorite, but relying on the unparalleled [tracking], Kieran still found some puzzling things a little further away.

A few footprints.

It doesn't need to be based on the number, just compare it with the memory in his mind, and Kieran is sure that these footprints belong to Charles, Raul and his wife.

However, apart from these few footprints, there is nothing else.

To be sure, Qin Ran walked further away.

But from beginning to end, there are only these few footprints.

There are no expected enemies.

Moreover, the strangest thing is that, judging from the direction of the footprints, after Charles, the master alchemist hit with his trump card, the group of people actually headed in the direction of Port Holons.

"what happened?"

"Used 'Meteor Burst' even though there were no enemies?"

Qin Ran subconsciously guessed.

Then he shook his head violently.

"wrong!"

"It's not that there are no enemies, but that the enemies are invisible! Not only are they extremely powerful, but they also block their escape route. Only in this way, Mr. Charles will choose to venture into Hollons Port, which is ravaged by living corpses!"

Qin Ran raised his hand and stroked his chin, his expression pondering.

"So, who is the invisible enemy?"

Qin Ran recalled the knowledge in his mind.

But no more clues.

Among the monsters he is familiar with, there is not a single one that is intangible, and can resist a 'Meteor Burst' head-on, and force Charles and others back.

call!

Taking a deep breath, Kieran turned around and waved to Simmons and the others.

With such craters, cars must be unable to travel, and the remaining roads can only be traveled on foot.

The situation shown by Charles and the others absolutely does not allow Kieran to delay.

Therefore, he prepared to go on the road alone.

In this regard, Simmons and others did not object.

The strange sight in front of them was enough for them to understand what was the best choice.

...

Qin Ran, who was carrying a large backpack, ran faster than a galloping horse.

A-level strength and agility gave Kieran jaw-dropping explosiveness and speed, while S-level physique gave him unremitting endurance.

It took Kieran an hour to reach the original two-hour journey.

Standing outside Holons Harbor, looking at the port city shrouded in darkness, and listening to the roar of the waves that could hardly be concealed, Kieran quickly took out the potion that Simmons had prepared.

Drink part of it, and part of it is applied to the skin and clothing.

The most powerful thing about a living corpse is not itself, but the plague that it carries with it.

Qin Ran is very confident in his S-level physique, but this does not prevent Qin Ran from adding an extra layer of defense to himself.

Having confidence and being arrogant are two different things.

What's more, Kieran has always believed in caution.

After finishing his preparations, Qin Ran quickly walked towards Hollons Port.

As soon as he entered, a roar sounded from a distance.

Roar!

Several figures staggered towards Qin Ran, like a group of drunks.

But the degree of danger is dozens of times that of a drunk.

The gray and blue face, the wrinkled skin, the flesh and blood seemed to melt away, the body became shriveled, but the strength became huge, and the wooden stick as thick as an arm could be broken at will.

In terms of defense, it is even more amazing.

Small-caliber pistols couldn't pierce the wrinkled skin at all.

But the weakness still exists!

boom! boom! boom!

【Boa Constrictor-W2】appeared in Kieran's hands, the silver revolver slammed repeatedly with the pull of the trigger.

Under the blessing of [Armor Breaking Lv1], the bullets easily lifted the sky caps of these living corpses.

However, the strong vitality after the transformation of the living corpses made these newly born living corpses still struggle for a while, until the brains were thrown out of the skulls, and then they convulsed and fell to the ground.

Kieran approached these living corpses carefully.

It was not until the other party's real death was confirmed that he checked it carefully.

"Except for the fatal injury I caused, there are no real scars. In other words, did the first living corpse use the air to spread the plague?"

Qin Ran was talking to himself.

This was the first time Kieran had seen a monster like a living corpse.

But in the books, there are absolutely no shortage of descriptions for such monsters.

Not only because of the weird way the living corpses were born, but also because of the 'plague' carried by the living corpses that can transform ordinary people into living corpses.

However, it is clearly stated in the book that if the living corpse wants to transform humans into companions, it must at least cause a bite wound.

Of course, most of the people who were attacked would never have the chance to become living corpses.

Food is their only ending.

You know, the living corpse is very hungry.

Unless a living corpse in a normal state devours 3-5 people in a row, no new living corpses will appear at all.

But the current situation is a little different!

"Is the air polluted by the gathering of too many living corpses?"

Qin Ran's heart tightened, and his pace became faster and faster.

Although Simmons gave Charles and his party enough potions before departure, Charles and the others were not the only ones who needed potions in Holons Harbor.

Qin Ran's destination was very clear.

Wineglass Hotel!

This is the place where mysterious people from the side of Hollons Harbor gather.

It is also the only place where it is possible to defend under the ravages of living corpses.

As for other places?

Even places with armed forces, such as the police station, are probably helpless in the face of the plague spreading in the air.

Unless the West Coast government has additional preparations.

However, everything he saw along the way told Qin Ran that this was impossible.

The fully armed zombie policemen are far more difficult to deal with than ordinary zombies.

Body armor, helmets, and masks give these zombie police officers a second defense.

If Qin Ran's [Gunpowder Weapon. Light Firearm] had not reached the extraordinary level, not only possessed unimaginable precision, but also had special abilities, bullets would not be able to tear through the two layers of defense at all.

Bang, bang, bang!

Gunshots came from the darkness in the distance, and Qin Ran, who was moving forward quickly, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Living corpses that have lost their intelligence can't use guns, they can only be humans.

And if there are rebels, it proves that the situation of the wine glass hotel is not so bad that it cannot be recovered.

Qin Ran strode forward.

But the moment he stepped forward.

A force that suffocated Qin Ran suddenly appeared on his body.
