Chapter 203 Volunteer Merrily
The surrounding area was completely silent.
Only the harsh sound of a car horn kept blaring continuously.
The Hunters leaned on each other to form a circle, intently focused on the parking lot inside the entrance, yet all they got were a few wild dogs running out from the alley behind.
Puchi.
The tri-edged spike pierced through the mouth emitting a foul stench right in front of them, and with a twist of the wrist, it turned the brain into a mushy pulp; by the time it was pulled out, it was already smeared with a mix of red and white.
Everyone looked at the three dog corpses on the ground with strange expressions.
All this commotion for just a few dogs?
Where's the horde of corpses?
Or what about the D-type mutant hiding in the hospital?
Even if not, sending more Mutant Canines would be something, but just three was too dismissive, wasn't it?
The Hunters had waited for a long time but still didn't get to see the anticipated scene of enemies pouring out from the hospital; all eyes were now on Liu Bing, the team leader.
The meaning in their eyes was simple. Stay connected with My Virtual Library Empire
Go make the report.
Liu Bing touched the newly dyed white hair on his head, still feeling somewhat unwilling to accept this. A hospital of this size was unlikely to be without enemies.
But having patiently waited for so long without even seeing the shadow of a ghost, it was as if the entire hospital had become a morgue.
"Fuck!"
"Just my damn luck!"
Liu Bing slapped the vehicle forcefully, causing dust on it to keep falling off, and turned around to head back after dropping a line.
"You guys wait here, I'll go back and make the report!"
A few minutes later.@@@@
Inside the temporary camp of the vehicle convoy.
Zhang Ye, upon hearing the report from Liu Bing, couldn't help but be curious and then climbed on top of the vehicle to take a look in the direction of the hospital.
Those few Hunters were still stationed at the entrance on alert.
Inside, it still remained empty.
Since their arrival, about two hours had passed; during which time, they had been attacked by at least five packs of zombies. The combined number from these groups easily exceeded three hundred.
Normally, if there were really a horde of corpses in the hospital, they probably would have been drawn out by the noise here by now.
Therefore, it was normal for the Hunters to honk a few times and get no response.
But this bit of normalcy was oddly abnormal.
After all, that was a hospital.
Three hundred sixty-five days a year, except for very rare periods, it was almost seldom unoccupied.
Having understood these matters, Liu Bing immediately wanted to take back what he had said, but when he looked up, he found encouragement in Zhang Ye's gaze.
He suddenly felt a surge of energy, and with his chest puffed out, he declared confidently,
"The Hunter Squad can go in and scout!"
"Please, Director Zhang, give the order!"
This man was also quite slippery.
With Xu Lin present, he nevertheless reported to Zhang Ye.
Under normal circumstances, the Hunter Squad, being a combat team under the Combat Department, should have reported to Xu Lin first and foremost.
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, many strange looks were cast in his direction.
Wasn't this outright disrespect towards Chief Xu?
Yet as everyone secretly anticipated something, Xu Lin was the first to speak up, "Then let the Hunter Squad go in for reconnaissance first. Everyone else maintain vigilance outside, ready to provide support at any time."
Seeing that Zhang Ye also nodded in agreement, Liu Bing immediately suppressed his excitement, stood straight, and roared, "Guaranteed to complete the mission!"
Having said that, he took out his walkie-talkie and called his teammates, who were still at the hospital entrance, back.
It's all good to show off, but one's life still mattered.
They had only been at the hospital entrance earlier, so they didn't have some of their equipment with them, but now that they were about to enter the den of the beast, the situation was different.
When the returning Hunters heard their captain had taken on a suicidal mission, they were immediately displeased.
But since the Combat Department's people were not far away, they didn't voice their concerns.
It was only after walking some distance that they began to complain.
"Captain! Isn't this foolhardy?"
A young Hunter, who looked to be in his twenties, couldn't hold back any longer, his eyes full of reproach as he stared at Liu Bing.
"Last time we encountered this kind of situation, we lost several people, you know!"
"If it wasn't for Captain Gao coming over in time—"
"Enough!"
The man had not even finished speaking when Liu Bing suddenly roared, his expression turning ugly.
Seeing this, the others quickly swallowed their words.
The young man immediately realized his mistake. The gaze that was once full of reproach instantly filled with dread, and he wished he could slap himself awake!
Knowing the captain was in a bad mood lately, why did he keep bringing up the old captain?
Wasn't this just asking to be scolded?
He kept his head low, afraid to meet Liu Bing's gaze, fearing he'd provoke him again, even bracing himself for a beating.
But the heavy breathing in front of him gradually subsided.
The Hunters sneaked a look in that direction, only to see the anger on Liu Bing's face had been thoroughly suppressed, replaced by an undisguised ferocity and determination.
