1148: Peashooter

Hearing the anticipated System prompt sound, Hong Lei breathed a sigh of relief, things were developing in the good direction he had hoped for.

However, before he could look back at his gains.

He suddenly heard a chaotic noise emerging from the stairwell.

"Bang bang bang!"

The area around the stairwell erupted with a large amount of chaotic footsteps!

Hearing this commotion, Hong Lei could tell that at least five Zombies from the floors below had run up!

The commotion he had just caused, in the quiet Hospital at this moment, was like a torch in The Black Night, extremely eye-catching!

The Zombies on the floor who heard the commotion had all gathered!

Daring not to linger, The Man quickly returned to the ward where his wife and Hong Lei's daughter were, then immediately locked the ward door and pasted water-soaked newspapers on it.

After decisively doing all this, on the corridor outside the door, a flurry of footsteps erupted in the very next breath!

Along with it, the air inside the ward was polluted by the bloody smell emitted by the group of Zombies in the corridor.

Just this alone showed that the number of Zombies in the corridor outside was definitely not small!

"Ho ho ho!!"

Seeing that there was no target in the corridor, those Zombies outside the door, after one or two roars, returned to a state of aimlessness, wandering unconsciously in this area.

Now this was great, if he wanted to go out, he had to pass the Zombie hurdle in the corridor.

While his heart sank slightly, Hong Lei focused his attention on the System panel.

After he achieved the achievement just now, he unlocked a new illustration!

【Pea Shooter】.

This was a plant that required five energy points to exchange.

His current energy was only 3 points, still a bit short.

He subconsciously glanced at the Sunflower, and only then did Hong Lei discover that two small black Suns had already fallen on the ground around the Sunflower.

Seeing this, a hint of surprise flashed in The Man's eyes, and he reached out to collect the two small Suns.

"Ding ~ Energy + 1"

"Ding ~ Energy + 1"

After timely collecting the two points of energy, Hong Lei's current energy directly reached 5 points, just meeting the condition for exchanging one Pea Shooter!

"System, exchange for 【Pea Shooter】!"

As Hong Lei's words fell, he suddenly realized that there was something extra in his hand.

Looking down, a green seed the size of a fist appeared in his hand.

"This is the 【Pea Shooter】?" He muttered to himself with some understanding, Hong Lei held the seed, looked around, then pulled out a pot of green radish used to purify the air in the ward, then put the seed in his hand into the flowerpot, and then buried it with soil.

After this operation, Hong Lei could clearly see that the seed he had just planted had already sprouted and grown leaves within a dozen breaths, finally settling into a green plant shaped like a hairdryer, with two green leaves supporting it.

【Pea Shooter】: Range 100 meters, slow firing speed, average power, ordinary accuracy, average health, unlimited bullets.

Evaluation: Overall performance is average, but sufficient. It will perform better against slow-moving monsters that don't pose a close-range threat.

Information about the potted plant in front of him appeared before Hong Lei's eyes.

This thing can shoot bullets?

After roughly understanding it, Hong Lei looked at the potted plant with a surprised expression.

"Shoot a bullet at that side and see the power." Hong Lei came to the window area behind the ward, pointing at an iron window guardrail about twenty meters away.

At his signal, the Pea Shooter immediately leaned back slightly.

Two breaths later...

"Puff ~"

A visible green sphere was spat out from the hairdryer-like mouth of the Pea Shooter.

"Clang!"

With a clear sound, the distant iron window guardrail was directly smashed by this green bullet, even vibrating and swaying!

If this blow landed on a person's head, it would at least create a half-finger deep pit!

This can be called average power?

Does the System have some misunderstanding of the term average?

This plant in his hand is definitely not weak!

Even a strong Middle-aged Man with a cold weapon cannot cause such great destruction as easily as it can!

When facing Zombies, its long-range combat method fully demonstrates its advantage!

The power of the Pea Shooter gave Hong Lei a shot in the arm.

However, judging by the situation in the corridor outside now, he would obviously still be a bit short if he wanted to escape the predicament with just one Pea Shooter!

He needed at least two more.

Then he would use heavy objects in the ward to block the door and let the Pea Shooter shoot through the glass window!

Having dealt with Zombies, Hong Lei knew that the combat ability of these guys was definitely not weak.

Therefore, he must not take it lightly.

Placing the Pea Shooter next to the Sunflower, Hong Lei continued to watch the Sunflower, waiting for the production of new Sun.

"Bang! Bang!"

"Da da da..."

Suddenly, a dense sound of gunfire, only heard on a battlefield, erupted from the Hospital entrance area!

After such a huge commotion appeared, Hong Lei realized something and quickly walked to the window area of the ward, looking outside.

The ward he was in was on the fourth floor of the Hospital, so the view was wide.

With just one glance, he could see that several groups of fully Armed Police forces had arrived in the area of the Hospital entrance!

Further away, there were also ranks of Army forces coming!

These Armed Police forces had already started clearing the Zombies in the Hospital!

The County Hospital was also one of the central areas of the County, so when the Zombie disaster broke out, the police forces were dispatched very quickly.

Amidst the sound of gunfire, Hong Lei heard a dense sound of footsteps in the corridor!

It was those Zombies in the corridor!

Listening to the receding sound of Zombie footsteps, Hong Lei knew that the Zombies gathered in the corridor had been attracted to the Hospital entrance area by the gunfire!

"Boom boom boom!"

Windows were smashed by Zombies who were not afraid of death, and many Zombies, like Usain Bolt, rushed towards the Armed Police formation with extreme madness after jumping down from the floor!

There were also many Zombies who broke their hands and feet after jumping from too high floors, and their running process seemed twisted and strange.

"Da da da!!!"

The gunfire became increasingly fierce at this moment.

The battle in the Hospital entrance area had entered a heated stage!

And in the Hospital corridor, a different kind of deadly silence fell at this moment.

"Bang ~"

Suddenly, a door opening sound appeared.

"Everyone run! The Zombies are gone, the Army is here to save us!"

A survivor hiding in the ward shouted loudly.

His voice directly caused a chain reaction, and the doors of many wards where survivors were hiding were opened.

The quiet corridor was immediately filled with a chaotic crowd!

The time spent in the Hospital was the most terrifying time in the lives of all survivors.

Now that they finally had a chance to leave, each of them wished they had eight legs!

Hong Lei lifted the window paper on the glass window.

He could clearly see that there were at least thirty or forty people in the corridor now, swarming towards the stairwell.

Hong Lei looked at their actions and for a moment could not judge whether they were right or wrong.

He had personally experienced the power of the Zombies.

The Army forces in this County might not be able to withstand this number of Zombies!

If the Army was repelled and the Zombies returned, then the survivors who continued to stay in the Hospital would indeed lose an opportunity to escape the Hospital.

And if the Army won.

This group of people who escaped early would inevitably have taken a risk for nothing.

It was far better to wait for the Army to rescue them in place.

He believed that the current survivors were also divided into these two ways of thinking.

One group was like the current situation, thinking of escaping as soon as possible, and the other group was waiting in the room for the Army to kill the Zombies and rescue them.

Hong Lei glanced at his wife and Hong Lei's daughter who were still sleeping soundly and chose to stay.

In fact, even if his wife and Hong Lei's daughter were awake, he would not plan to risk going out at this time.

He only needed to wait for the Sunflower to collect enough energy to create new 【Pea Shooter】s, which would greatly enhance his safety guarantee!

With a sufficient number of plants, even if the Army didn't come to rescue him, he would have the ability to leave this dangerous place!

"Brother, run! What are you hiding for, maybe those monsters will be back in a while!" A Middle-aged Man with a tattoo on his neck in the corridor glanced at the tattoo on Hong Lei's arm and kindly reminded him.

"You go."

"Don't be like that, brother, let's go out together, we'll be brothers who have gone through life and death together. Where are you from? We can develop together in the future." The Middle-aged Man with a tattoo on his neck asked with a smile.

However, his smile only lasted for a moment.

When Hong Lei showed the person outside the ward door the bloody and mangled wound on the tiger's mouth of his right hand that had been bitten, his expression immediately froze.

"Uh, big brother... you take care of yourself."

"Also, you must, must not come out!"

...

After a small interlude, the survivors who escaped from this floor had basically completely left the current floor.

"Ho ho ho!!"

A Zombie's roar emerged from the end of the corridor, attracting Hong Lei's attention.

Looking through the window, The Man could see that it was a Zombie tied to a Hospital bed.

He remembered this guy, he was the patient who bit the head Nurse, causing her to turn into a Zombie, which in turn spread the virus here.

The other party was tightly tied to the Hospital bed, and he witnessed one living person after another passing by in front of him.

Compared to this bound Zombie, the Zombie corpse with a smashed head in the corner area was more likely to cause screams from passers-by.

And after the crowd had left in succession, the corridor regained its quietness.

However, in some wards, there were still arguments about whether to stay or leave.

"Click ~"

Hong Lei carefully opened the ward door.

He looked around and then looked at the Zombie tied to the Hospital bed at the end of the corridor.

The other party also turned his head at this moment, clearly noticing Hong Lei's presence.

While roaring and howling, his body also kept struggling on the Hospital bed.

Seeing this, Hong Lei took out the flowerpot carrying the Pea Shooter from the ward and aimed it at the Zombie at the end of the corridor.

"Puff ~"

After stabilizing, a clear green, round bullet was directly spat out from the mouth of the Pea Shooter.

The next moment, it landed directly on the head of that Zombie!

The bullet spat out by the Pea Shooter was like a solid iron ball fired from a small caliber cannon.

Upon colliding with the Zombie's head, it directly caused its entire head to explode with a splash of foul blood, and there was also the clear sound of a skull cracking echoing in the corridor!

"Puff ~"

Another bullet was spat out from the mouth of the Pea Shooter.

The wobbly bullet this time had poor aim and landed on the Zombie's arm.

"Crack ~" Under one bullet, that Zombie's arm was directly twisted at a 90° angle!

"Ho!" Under the Zombie's struggle without feeling pain, that greenish-black arm was actually twisted off by him and fell onto the cold corridor floor!

"Puff ~"

The third bullet followed.

This blow hit the Zombie's head again.

As if triggering a critical hit, the bullet directly blew off the Zombie's skull!
