Chapter 035 Welcome to Shibuya
Sato Seiji, a cat, was behind the police car, his eyes bulging so wide they almost popped out of their sockets.
He witnessed the most idiotic scene of his life.
A thick, almost tangible green gas gushed out from the seven orifices of Lin Fan's corpse.
When the green gas comes into contact with the gray rain falling from the sky, it's like a sodium block being dropped into water.
There was no explosion.
Only the white smoke produced by the violent chemical reaction expands and spreads instantly!
In just three seconds, a strange yellowish-green mist completely enveloped an area within a hundred meters of Lin Fan's corpse.
"What...what is this?"
"It stinks!!"
The closest agents were the first to be affected.
Just a few breaths later, they were clutching their throats, and the skin on their faces began to fester at a visible rate, like wax figures melting in high temperatures.
"roar--"
at the same time,
The first mutated hot girl had already torn a bloody piece of flesh from the balding uncle's neck.
Before the man's screams had even stopped, his body began to convulse violently as if he had been electrocuted.
His pupils dilated instantly, the whites of his eyes rolled back, and his previously contorted face went blank for a moment, then...
violent!
"roar!"
The man suddenly sprang up from the ground, his movements stiff yet swift, and bit at another passerby.
All of this was like toppling the first domino.
In just a few moments, the Shibuya Crossing was transformed into a living hell.
"Fire! Fire now!"
A SWAT team leader in riot gear roared hysterically.
"Bang bang bang!"
A barrage of gunfire erupted.
The bullets struck the mutated hot girl, splattering a few black bloodstains.
If it were a normal person, they would have been lying down and singing "Conquer" by now.
But the hot girl only staggered a few steps after being hit, as if she couldn't feel the pain, and charged forward despite the hail of bullets, her sharp nails digging directly into the SWAT captain's eye socket.
"ah!!!!"
The SWAT captain screamed and fell to the ground, his submachine gun misfiring and knocking down a group of fleeing pedestrians.
Chaos.
Complete chaos.
The men and women who were just lamenting about life, seeking attention on live streams, and confessing their love over the phone are now running around like headless flies.
All manners and politeness were thrown to the dogs at that moment.
"Get out of the way! Don't block my way!"
An elite man in an Armani suit, waving a briefcase, frantically smashed it at an old woman blocking his way.
"Help... Someone help me out..."
The old woman fell to the ground, desperately reaching out her hand.
"Go to hell, you old bastard!"
The elite man kicked the old lady in the face and rushed into a Lawson convenience store.
He had barely stepped inside when he turned around and blocked the glass door with all his might.
"Please...open the door!!"
A young mother was holding her five- or six-year-old daughter, desperately pounding on the glass door, her face covered in tears and terror.
Less than five meters behind her, three blood-covered "zombies" were already rushing towards her.
The elite man stood through the glass, his gaze as cold as if he were looking at two dead fish.
Instead of opening the door, he quickly locked it and dragged two cases of bottled water from the shelf to block the doorway.
"Finally, finally safe!"
His lips moved, revealing a hint of relief at surviving a close call.
However, compared to the man's good fortune, the young mother outside was not so lucky.
The desperate cries were quickly drowned out by the roars of the rushing zombies.
Blood splattered on the transparent glass window of the convenience store, slowly sliding down and leaving shocking red streaks.
The elite man stood inside the door, his hands still trembling slightly, but his eyes were filled with indifference.
This group of people from Japan, whose very nature is tainted with inferiority, took the indifference of their nation to the extreme at this moment.
……
"It's over...it's all over..."
Sato Masayoshi stared outside, trembling all over.
Looking at the hellish scene around him, and then at the eerie fog that hung in the air, he quickly called for help from his colleague who was not far away:
"Hey! Koizumi! Quickly, get the gas mask..."
However, before he could finish speaking, his tone turned into a terrified scream.
"Uh... Heh... Heh heh..."
Then he saw his subordinate, whom he called Koizumi, slowly turn around.
Sato Masayoshi will never forget that face in his entire life.
Koizumi's face, which had originally been quite handsome and had a scholarly air, had now completely melted away.
That's right, it's dissolving.
Like a wax figure swept by a high-temperature spray gun, its eyelids melted, revealing two cloudy eyeballs that were almost bulging out of their sockets, and the eyeballs were covered with spider web-like black blood vessels.
The lips had completely disappeared, leaving two rows of teeth exposed, and the gums were a purplish-black color, as if poisoned.
And beneath the other's skin, it seemed as if countless small snakes were wriggling wildly; those were bulging black blood vessels reorganizing his muscle fibers.
"Xiao...Xiaoizumi?"
Sato trembled all over and moved backward using both his hands and feet.
He couldn't understand how a perfectly healthy person could suddenly turn into such a grotesque state.
Roar! ! !
His response was a wild, beast-like roar.
The next moment, the mutated Koizumi pushed off with both legs, moving at a speed comparable to a physical talent awakener, but he did not pounce on him.
The target of the attack was the special police officers who were closer in distance.
There was no back-and-forth struggle.
Only the most primitive form of predation.
Click!
A crisp sound of bones cracking rang out.
The SWAT officer didn't even have time to release the safety before Koizumi bit his neck.
puff-
The major artery ruptured instantly.
Scalding hot blood gushed out like a high-pressure water gun...
……
"Run...run fast!!"
At this moment, the entire Shibuya intersection was nothing but chaos.
Hundreds or even thousands of people screamed at the same time, running around like headless flies.
Those onlookers who were originally live-streaming and taking photos with their phones now wished they had two more legs, and frantically rushed towards the surrounding streets.
Pushing, trampling, crying out.
Shoes were lost, phones were flung away, and some people were even tripped and trampled into a bloody pulp by countless feet.
Next to a luxury car at the intersection.
The couple who made vows of eternal love in front of the camera, touching countless netizens.
The man who had just sworn to protect women for life was now being held tightly by a zombie with half an arm missing, his trouser leg being grabbed by the crotch.
The zombie's strength was astonishing; no matter how hard he kicked, he couldn't get rid of it.
Two more zombies were lunging at them, baring their teeth and claws.
"Kenta-kun! Help me!"
His girlfriend, who was standing next to him, was so frightened that her legs went weak and she reached out to grab his arm.
The man turned his head and looked at the face that he usually adored, but now all he could see in his eyes was madness and the will to survive.
"I'm sorry, Yuko."
He suddenly reached out and grabbed his girlfriend's long hair.
"Huh?"
The woman didn't even realize what had happened.
He was then violently shoved towards the two zombies that pounced on him.
"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry..."
puff!puff!
The two zombies were instantly drawn to the woman; their sharp nails pierced her delicate skin, and their sharp teeth tore through her clothes.
"Kenta...why...?"
The woman's desperate eyes were fixed on the fleeing figure, blood gushing from her mouth.
However, the man didn't look back and disappeared into the chaotic crowd.
……
Then to the other side.
A socialite dressed in a Chanel suit and carrying a Hermès Birkin bag is screaming and backing away.
"Don't come any closer! Do you know who I am? I'm from the Mitsubishi Group..."
Roar!
The zombies opposite clearly didn't care about financial reports or stocks; they only cared about whether they could get enough to eat. They pounced on the zombies, their faces covered in blood.
The wealthy woman instinctively threw her two million yen platinum handbag at the person in front of her.
Snapped.
The bag hit the rotting face, but it did nothing to stop the zombie.
The zombie's claws were about to tear her face apart.
The lady suddenly reached out and grabbed the tall, loyal bodyguard who was protecting her.
"Block it! I'll dock your pay! Block it!"
The burly bodyguard was struggling with a zombie on the other side when he was completely taken aback by his employer.
Losing his balance, the bodyguard was pushed directly into the zombie's arms by the lady.
"Madam, you..."
The bodyguard turned around in disbelief.
The next second, his neck was bitten off.
The wealthy woman didn't even glance at him before turning and running away, losing one of her high heels in the process, and limping towards a jewelry store.
……
hell.
This is no longer the bustling Shibuya of Tokyo, but a naked hell on earth.
Sato Masayoshi lay trembling under the police car.
He peered through the gaps under the car at the frantically running legs outside, at the dripping blood, and at the pieces of internal organs lying on the ground.
vomit……
A strong feeling of nausea made him gag, but he covered his mouth tightly, not daring to make a sound.
He knew very well that if he made the slightest noise, countless mouths would come and tear him to pieces.
"How could it have turned out like this... how could it be..."
Sato closed his eyes in despair.
Just then.
A strange sound of flowing water caught Sato's attention.
He slightly opened his eyes and looked at the road drainage outlet not far away.
The strange green liquid gushing out around Lin Fan's corpse did not completely evaporate into poisonous mist.
They mixed with rainwater and blood, converging into a murky stream that gurgled and gurgled into the city's vast underground drainage system through roadside drains.
In the dark and damp sewers.
Countless tiny, scarlet eyes lit up in the darkness.
Thousands upon thousands of rats live in the shadows of the city.
They greedily licked the flowing green liquid, their bodies began to swell violently, and their fur fell out...
