To my frozen hometown

Chapter 18 It may only take a moment to go from dazed to crazy

"boom!"

Another bullet fired from the chamber.

At this time, there was already a ray of dawn in the sky.

The light shone on the swirling bullet, causing the copper-yellow bullet case to reflect the surrounding scene in mid-air.

That was countless beasts gathered together, chasing a train.

There are countless muzzles that are dark and deep, with tongues of flame flickering.

That was the body falling down, blood spattering.

It was a fight between man and beast, in order to be able to continue to live on this ice sheet.

"puff!"

The bullet sank into the eye socket of a canine beast, and its body fell, and was soon overwhelmed by the pack that followed.

On the train, Liu Yuan pulled up the bolt silently and pushed the next bullet into the chamber.

They fought with the herd of beasts all night, but the number of wild beasts did not decrease because of death, but increased more and more.

The bloody smell of the corpses attracted more beasts to gather on both sides of the track and attack the train.

At this time, the back of the snowfield train was already full of all kinds of beasts, including small wild dogs and wolves, as well as huge mountain lions and tigers.

Because of the smell of spices that lure beasts, they all have red eyes and crazy expressions.

The mad beasts completely ignored the differences between the groups and gathered together to chase the train.

It can be believed that if the train stops at this time, these wild beasts will rush up together and tear everyone to pieces.

The 15-meter-high track can effectively prevent wild beasts from approaching the train, but wild beasts can also climb, right?

The steel brackets that support the tracks are apparently not such a difficult thing to climb.

Moreover, among the beasts that Liuyuan knew, there were more than a dozen kinds of giant creatures that could exceed 15 meters in size.

It's just that most of their haunts are not here.

"Approximately how many beasts are there now?"

On the other side of the carriage, Watson continued to shoot at the herd while asking the scouts beside him.

"Report sir, there are about [-] heads." The scout stood aside, holding a telescope, and replied with a serious expression.

Just this night, their intermittent shooting had already killed nearly [-] beasts, but this was obviously not enough.

The herds were cleared out one by one, gathered in another, and their numbers would only continue to increase as time went on, especially as they entered the Back Mountains and the Western Downs.Once the herd of beasts there gets involved, the number of the herd of beasts will probably reach tens of thousands.

It is necessary to speed up the consumption of wild beasts, otherwise once the number of wild beasts is out of control, the situation will also be out of the control of the greenhouse guards.

Watson obviously understood this, he gritted his teeth, and had to order the scout again.

"Continue to distribute supplies and ammunition to each carriage, and clean up this batch of beasts as soon as possible, and never allow them to gather with the next batch of beasts."

"Yes!"

"Bang!" Watson fired another shot, but unfortunately this bullet only shot into the shoulder of a giant sharp-toothed tiger. With a sound, it became even crazier.

Damn!

Watson cursed secretly.

It has to be admitted that for giant beasts, it is difficult to shoot them directly with ordinary firearms.

At the latest tomorrow morning, the train will enter the Houshan Mountains.

Before that, the beasts in the eastern snowfield must be cleaned up, otherwise the situation will only get worse and worse.

Watson thought, gritted his teeth, and reloaded the bullet.

As for Liu Yuan, she was still holding the jerky in her mouth, and shot the beast one after another.

But if you look carefully, you will find that every shot she makes can basically kill a beast.

Whether it is a giant beast or a small beast, the bullets will shoot into their eyeballs without exception, killing them directly.

After killing this batch, maybe you can take a nap.

At this moment, Liu Yuan thought of it like this.

Ah, if only I could light a barbecue.

She was as lazy as ever, but she didn't notice the strange gaze of Watson behind her.

Obviously, Watson also noticed the difference in Yanagihara, the shooting accuracy was simply unprecedented for him.

What an incredible wanderer.

After taking a deep look at Liuyuan, Watson's eyes fell on the short knife on Liuyuan's waist again.

The scabbard was full of rust. It was hard to imagine that someone could kill a pack of wolves with such a short knife.

What has she experienced, and where did she come from.

Watson felt that Yanagihara seemed to be full of mysteries.

It's just that no one seems to be able to tell these mysteries.

"Bang bang bang!"

The sound of gunfire is still heard, and the fighting is still going on.

······

In the early morning of the next day, the snowfield train finally entered the range of the Houshan Mountains.

It was very quiet in the carriage, because they had just repelled a herd of beasts, so everyone's spirits were exhausted.After arranging the order in which each carriage took turns to guard, everyone rested.

In the No. [-] carriage where Liuyuan was, soldiers and employees lay in disorder, not paying any attention to whose arms or thighs were on whose body. Everyone was very tired and fell asleep almost as soon as they lay down.

On the side of the carriage, Liu Yuan sat on the ground, adjusting the rifle while silently removing an arm that was hanging on his leg.

She had already squatted by the window and slept before when the beast slowed down its attack, so she didn't need to rest now, it was her right to help her on guard.

After entering the Houshan Mountains, the number of beasts will become more, because there will always be more beasts wandering around at the foot of the mountain.

"Aren't you resting?" Watson asked Liuyuan in another corner of the carriage.

"I've already rested." Liu Yuan inspected the barrel of the gun without looking up, and replied flatly.

"Really." Watson nodded, took out a cigarette from his arms, and lit it in his mouth.

"Do you want to smoke?" He suddenly looked at Liu Yuan and asked.

This time, Liu Yuan raised his head.

"want."

She has no reason not to take advantage of this kind of white advantage.

"Okay." Watson raised his eyebrows, took out another cigarette and threw it to Liuyuan.

Seeing Liu Yuan lit a cigarette with the lighter he borrowed from him last time, Watson didn't say anything, but continued to think about his own affairs silently.

The two fell silent.

So there was no other sound in the carriage except the occasional snoring.

Tens of seconds later, Watson looked at the top of the carriage, and suddenly spoke again.

"The herd of beasts in the Houshan Mountains is likely to be out of control."

This was what he had predicted when he estimated the size of the herd earlier, but even so, he came anyway.

"I know." Liu Yuan replied calmly. Based on the situation of the beasts in the eastern snowfield, it is obviously not difficult to deduce this point.

"But it's a disaster, isn't it?"

Saying that, Liuyuan glanced at Watson.

It is undeniable that she expressed the cruelest reality in the most plain tone.

"Yes." Watson smiled, exhaled the smoke from his mouth, and closed his eyes.

"This is disaster."

People have no choice but to struggle and to give up struggling.

"Z...Z..."

At this time, there was a sound of electric current from the communicator at Watson's waist, and the next moment, a panicked voice came from it.

"Sir, sir, this is carriage No. [-]. We found traces of herds. They are nearby, and this time the number is likely to exceed [-]."

Five thousand heads, this is already a number that is about to get out of control.

"I see." Watson sighed, then responded calmly.

"Notify all compartments and start alert."

"Yes!"

As the communication was transmitted, everyone was called up.

And just when everyone picked up their equipment in a daze, the herd that had quietly gathered finally launched an offensive.

"Roar!"

A roar that resounded through the mountains reached everyone's ears, dispelling all their drowsiness in an instant.

Both the soldiers and the hirelings ran to the car window in a panic and raised their rifles.

Immediately afterwards, they saw a scene they would never forget in their lives.

Countless beasts rushed out from the mountains and attacked the train tracks at the foot of the mountain. Their attacks were so crazy that even the ground seemed to be shaking.

There are at least eight thousand of these beasts, no, even ten thousand.

Everyone knew the beast was out of control.

And this is likely to cause them all to die here.

"boom!"

A gunshot broke the silence of the car.

Watson stood by the car window and turned around, looking at the dull crowd and shouting loudly.

"Why are you still standing there, fire!"

Then, he sent a new command to the communicator.

"Notify the front carriage, temporarily shut down the incinerator, and increase the speed of the train."

Now that's all he can do. Temporarily shake off the beasts, and then consume the number of beasts in batches.

However, the development of the situation obviously did not mean to let him get what he wanted.

As the light in the sky dimmed, a group of giant birds flapping their wings appeared above the mountains.

This time, even Liu Yuan, who was always calm, was taken aback for a moment.

"Trouble..."

She recovered, frowned and said.

The trouble lies not in a group of flying birds that can attack the train, but in a group of crazy flying birds.

"Quack quack quack."

The hideous sound of the giant birds echoed in the sky, and then, before the soldiers could react, they fell towards the train.

If I have to say, their size is actually not too big, with a wingspan of about three meters and a body size of about seventy centimeters.

But compared to birds, they are already huge individuals.

Some of these flying birds jumped on the train, scratching the train carriage with their sharp claws, and some jumped in front of the car window, and grabbed the unresponsive soldiers out of the window with their claws.

"Ah! Ah!"

Heart-piercing screams sounded one after another, and soldiers one after another were dragged by the birds and fell out of the train.

"Fire! Fire!" Watson yelled angrily.

"If you still want to live, then fucking fire at me!"

This sentence seems to ignite something...

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" In an instant, everyone in the carriage roared angrily.

They were breathing heavily, their hearts were beating violently, their faces were filled with blood, and they raised their rifles and unreservedly vented the bullets in the chambers.

Yes, they want to live.

Incomparable, want to live.

"Roar!!!" There was another roar from the herd.

On the ice field, humans and beasts roared at each other and started the most primitive fight.

This may be the original posture of nature, the law of the jungle and the survival of the fittest.

Cruel, cold-blooded, but also true.

And what Liu Yuan was worried about finally happened. Some of the birds jumped between the wheels of the train, and then their bodies were drawn into it, exploding pieces of cloudy blood.

At the same time, as more and more birds hit the wheels, the speed of the train gradually slowed down.

The wheels are stopping, and the retreat of human beings is also being cut off.
