Chapter 1296 Moving In - Too Quiet
[B-BE CAREFUL! S-SOMETHING A-ATE THEM!]
[M-MINE'S STILL ON THE GROUND BUT THE CAMERA IS—]
[W-WANT US TO DETONATE—]
"GO AHEAD!"
At this point, I didn't even want to bring up vore but with some of the descriptions I was hearing, it was already similar to that. And yeah, it'd be a waste and a risk to have an armed explosive charge just sitting on a deadhead's stomach so before it succumbed to its juices, it should have one last hurrah and deal the most damage as possible.
It wasn't even a few seconds when the two did as they were told and we heard explosions almost coming off at almost the same time—but I was already approving the Mayor's decision to have a group check the wreckage and have a backup team to see if they could have another set of drone on there while clearing out anything that was attracted by the explosions.
But yeah, June and Ilana were already in the process of pairing new drones to their custom devices when a handful of deadheads from the horde we were facing plopped down on the ground unmoving.
With Stitchers obviously present, it was safe to say we took care of a few of them but there were still amalgamated fucks still walking and hobbling. It may not be their minions per se but there could be more Stitchers who survived the explosion and were just nesting somewhere.
Still, we should focus on what was in front of us though everyone else in front felt that the movements of the defects we were facing had gone a little more unnatural and a little more frenzied.
At this point, I was halfway to the first mag of my Maxim 9 but my blade was stained with all sorts of juices from different people. I can't even wipe it off with the clothes of these motherfuckers because they were either ripped off or had adhered to their skin.
But yeah, I still have spares in one of my extra pockets because blood and grime had the tendency to dull my blade and slow it down, so wiping it in intervals was the way to go.
Flicking them off could only do so much because of how viscous or dry their blood had gotten—but it didn't take long before the dregs used to welcome us ran out of bodies to send over.
It was then that we hosed down this section of the train station while throwing our mess below—and we began sending in the bobcats after placing the appropriate ramps on more accessible areas.
But yeah, walking past the entrance opened up several routes and the bobcats opened a lot more when they started to tear down those flesh walls blocking certain passages. However, it was pretty obvious that there'd be hidden surprises then and there so after they tore off a small piece, we'd just send a pipe bomb or two in the hole provided and see the remains after.
Sometimes, it'd just be this 3-inch thick slab of meat covering the passages but more often than not, it'd be just bodies piled on top of one another, making us guess if they'd suddenly spring up or just be things we needed to have one of our brain cells to watch out for.
It was more work to stab their exposed heads and claw off their bodies using the bobcats but even if our progress had gone considerably slow, the chance we'd get caught off-guard significantly lessened.
In any case, we didn't forget about the deadhead Artem took down with his knife as we bagged it for storage and transport later.
'It's too fucking quiet though... hmm...'
