Chapter 277 Mutants
"We have to go to other places to find more bullets... and we also need to find food and water, even if it is contaminated..."
While thinking about the next plan in mind, Qi Lin drilled out from under the rolling gate.
As soon as Qi Lin got out of the rolling gate, he saw a player wearing a dirty brown leather jacket and a hood walked towards him less than five meters in front of him. It was obvious that the other party's destination was also this weapon store.
The other party was stunned when he saw Qi Lin, and the next second, he let out a harsh shout, and pulled out a KS-23 pump-action shotgun from behind, but at this time, Qi Lin had already pulled the trigger of Makarov in his hand.
"Boom! Boom!"
"Bang!"
At this time, the defect of Makarov's insufficient power was reflected. The player was shot twice in the chest, but he just staggered for a moment and did not kill him immediately. The ks-23 in his hand still successfully fired the gun.
Fortunately, because the opponent was shot and his body was tilted backwards, the shotgun was originally facing Qi Lin's muzzle a little, and a shot hit Qi Lin's left waist and rib.
Qi Lin only felt that he had a heavy punch in his waist and abdomen, but he was still within a range that he could bear. He immediately made up for the third shot. This shot hit the opponent's neck, and the opponent finally fell down on his back.
Qi Lin looked down at the place where he was shot. Fortunately, the other party's gun chamber was neither a single-headed bullet nor a deer bullet, but an iron sand with the weakest penetration force. Although the coat was smashed to pieces, all of the iron sand was blocked by the dragon scale armor inside, and he could not hurt Qi Lin in the slightest.
If the opponent uses a single-headed bullet, with the caliber and power of ks-23, even if he misses the key point at this distance, Qi Lin will definitely suffer heavy injuries.
This guy is definitely not a lone walker. Qi Lin quickly looked around and dragged the man's accomplices back to the weapon shop before the gunfire was brought in, and then stepped on the rolling gate to the bottom.
"Hey, can you speak English?" Qi Lin kicked the man gently and asked in English, but the other party suddenly died at this time.
"I'll go..." Qi Lin spat, immediately squatted down, and carefully checked the player's body.
Qi Lin can be 100% sure that this is a player rather than an NPC, not because he is holding a "Talayanko" id, but because he is clasped on his left wrist with a miniature personal intelligence that is exactly the same as Qi Lin.
After turning the corpse over, Qi Lin found that the other party's three gunshot wounds were pouring out, but these blood were different from normal people. They were pure black and had a very high viscosity, like melted asphalt, and had a pungent and strange smell.
"What the hell is this?" Qi Lin was a little surprised. Such sticky blood could not flow in the blood vessels at all. This guy should have died of a blood clot rather than being beaten to death by himself.
However, when Qi Lin pulled off the other party's hood, he realized that the other party was really not a "human"!
The head under Tarayanko's hood is like a skeleton, with pale and wrinkled skin and tightly stretched on the skull. There is only a triangular black hole in the nose, the eye sockets are red, swollen and deep, and the gums on the lips are deteriorated to varying degrees, completely exposing a mouthful of white teeth.
"Mutant?!"
Qi Lin has only heard of the mutant group, but this is the first time he has seen it.
Mutants are somewhat similar to zombies. They are both mutated by normal people after excessive radiation, but the two are not the same - zombies appear in a short time after the outbreak of nuclear war. Extra large doses of radiation instantly give rise to stress mutations in the human body, but mutants are different. Mutants do not appear at once, but species produced by ordinary people who live in a high-concentration radiation environment for a long time.
If an ordinary person without various evolutionary abilities accumulates a lot of radiation in his body, it will definitely lead to the disappearance of vitality, various complications occur, and eventually die. However, some people, although their body structure is the same as others, their adaptability is strong enough. The radiation destroys their bodies while changing their bodies. In the end, they become the appearance in front of Qi Lin.
Strictly speaking, mutants are also considered evolutionists, but their evolution is forced, which is a very painful malignant mutation. Although the physical fitness of mutants can also meet the standards of first- and second-level evolvers and can live in a high-concentration radiation environment, they are always suffering from the torture brought by their bodies after the mutation.
Qi Lin took off the mutant's leather jacket again, and saw that his body was tightly wrapped in bandages torn by various rags. The straps were dirty and disgusting, soaked with light yellow pus flowing out of the mutant's body. The skin exposed to the outside of the bandage had multiple ulcers and polyps.
"It seems that this city is not a dead city without people..." Qi Lin understood that in the next period of time, what he had to face was probably these players who had become mutants.
According to a few information, mutants and zombies are completely different. They are hostile to all other species, including mutant creatures, zombies, zombies and humans, and never show mercy to guys who are not their kind.
Think about it, after all, many zombies' pain has deteriorated. Although they have become that way, the physical pain is not obvious, so they can still maintain their rationality. The mutant is actually a person who suffers from severe radiation diseases but cannot die. The pain and torture make them hate the "human compatriots" who turn them into this.
There is only one possibility for these mutants to appear, that is, there was a leak in the shelter where they were. A large amount of nuclear radiation killed most people, while the few who survived became mutants.
The process of ordinary people becoming mutants takes at least one or two years, so they cannot complete the transformation in the virtual world of the game. After all, it has not been that long before the game is opened.
The only thing Qi Lin wondered about is why the Russian mastermind did not determine these people as non-human aliens, but still created the game cabin and sent it to the hands of mutants... Is this to increase the difficulty of the game for human players?
Qi Lin searched for this mutant called "Talayanko". In addition to a KS-23 shotgun and a small hand axe, Qi Lin also found two empty "Jet" fog suctionators in the other party's pocket.
In order to relieve physical pain, sucking Jeter or some other similar drugs should be a very common phenomenon among mutants.
He threw the mist absorber aside and Qi Lin inserted his hand axe into his belt. As for this ks-23, Qi Lin only had the common 12-caliber deer bullets on hand, and there was no 23mm-caliber extra-large ammunition used by the ks-23, so Qi Lin could not use this gun.
It may be that there would be no one else coming in the radiation area. Tarayanko did not carry more spare ammunition on his body, and only brought iron sand enough for one shot.
Moreover, the KS-23 cannot actually use iron sand as ammunition, because the barrel of this large-caliber shotgun designed by the former Soviet Union for the riot troops is actually rifled, and is mainly used to fire ammunition such as single-headed or tear gas, with an accurate range of more than 200 meters.
Qi Lin didn't have to look at it, you could guess that the rifle inside the barrel of this KS-23 must have been worn out.
"It's really a waste."
Qi Lin took out the metal barrel of the KS-23 and used it as a door bolt. He passed through a metal ring buckle on the inside of the rolling gate, inserted it into a hole in the cement floor, and found a steel brazing as thick as a finger from the upstairs, which tightly jammed the metal ring on the rolling gate. This made it difficult for people outside to push the rolling gate up.
Qi Lin used the small hand axe to split a chair and a sofa into wooden boards, and used some wooden boards to seal all the windows on the first and second floors.
