I Pursued My Scummy Ex’s White Moonlight – Chapter 111

Exactly how big the mother nest could grow, even the system could not give a specific numerical value. Thinking according to the worst-case scenario, that would be that the several buildings of the hospital were all covered by soft walls.

Su Wenwen led the team members, traveling through the soft walls for a long time. She could only roughly judge that their current position should have descended to the third floor, and the location where she was separated from Luo Xi should be on the second floor.

Still had to continue downwards.

While walking, Su Wenwen saw that a poison sac had grown on the soft wall at the top ahead. The surroundings of the poison sac were all fine, small holes, so she had the team members put on gas masks.

The masks were just put on when the holes began to spray poison. Su Wenwen had them wait in place, while she herself strode over in a few steps. The iron awl in her hand forcefully patted the poison sac, and the poison sac, like a balloon filled with water, directly exploded open. The liquid inside scattered directly onto the ground.

The poison gas also stopped being released, but the team members did not dare to take them off easily, holding flashlights as they gathered close to Su Wenwen’s side.

The passageway became narrower and narrower, simply like shuttling through intestines. It was clearly not a large place, yet it unexpectedly twisted and turned with the momentum of a thousand li¹.

The fire element ability user said irritably, “Team Leader Su, how about I release a fire, and roast all this smelly meat until it’s cooked?”

Su Wenwen was somewhat hesitant, because she did not know what the consequences of doing so would be. But if they searched for the person by following the steps and keeping to the class², she was afraid that Luo Xi would run to another place again. How long would it take to find them then? Right now, they did not even know where the flower stamen was. It would be better to try a fire attack; maybe the smell of burnt meat could still be smelled by Luo Xi.

“Alright, but we must find a spacious place. If we use fire here, I’m afraid we will all be burned to death.”

“Then how about we walk back? There was just a spacious place a moment ago, right?” the fire element ability user said.

“Alright, walk back.”

Everyone turned their bodies around, walking while supporting themselves on the soft walls with both hands. The road under their feet was all soft. When walking, everyone had a feeling of stepping on a trampoline, swaying and very unstable.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion, Su Wenwen always felt that the soft wall seemed a bit narrower than the previous moment. She felt something bulge up on her palm, and after it slid past, the passageway became slightly more spacious.

What was that thing just now?

Su Wenwen frowned, carefully listening to the surrounding gululu movements. It was just like the peristalsis of intestines, with excrement squeezing its way through the intestinal tract with seven turns and eight corners³. Once this strange thought arose, even the tip of her nose smelled a whiff of a foul, rotten smell.

The other people were wearing gas masks and perhaps did not smell this scent, so they fundamentally did not know what had happened.

Su Wenwen could not help but turn her head, using the light of her flashlight to probe and illuminate. The soft wall was an expanse of blood red, and the light spread out from near to far into a gloomy black.

Gululu…

The sound got closer and closer. The other people also noticed something was not right and turned their heads to shine their lights over. Several beams of light fused together into a strong light, illuminating a little further.

Su Wenwen’s pupils shrank. Her vision was good, and she was the first to see a lump of rotten meat with many zombie heads adhered to it. The bodies of these zombies had all been dissolved away, leaving only the heads to bump against each other and emit dissatisfied roars.

Because that lump of meat was too huge, the entire soft wall was squeezed until it bulged, and it squeezed its way over along the passageway at an extremely fast speed.

“Run quickly!” Su Wenwen said in alarm.

So everyone hurriedly ran wildly, but underneath their feet was an expanse of softness. When running, there would occasionally be bumps, and they truly could not run fast.

Su Wenwen was closest to the meat lump. Turning her head, she could clearly see the heads on that lump of meat excitedly opening their mouths. They strove to be first and feared to be behind⁴, but because of the rolling, they were very quickly squeezed underneath, like soft, rotten, shriveled balls.

It was getting closer and closer. Su Wenwen assumed a fighting posture and was just preparing to meet the battle when a rustle rustle sound came from behind her. Following that, a lot of earth crossed over her side and erected an earth wall on the soft wall. That meatball directly crashed onto the earth wall, causing the earth to fall off one after another and several fine cracks to open up.

“Team Leader Su, run quickly.”

Su Wenwen followed the team members, running wildly all the way. Once they got a little further away, the earth element ability user lost control of the earth wall, and that lump of meatball came rolling over again, yelling ao ao.”

Everyone smoothly ran out of the passageway and arrived at a comparatively wide area. They all stood leaning against the side, while that lump of meatball was sprayed out like garbage, scattering randomly on the ground.

The zombies were all left with only their heads; their bodies had become soft, rotten meat and skeletons. Some had even been divided by five horses⁵, their limbs mixed together with those of other zombies.

When they saw living people, besides being able to call out a couple of times, they could do nothing.

It seems that long passageway is used for excretion. But according to reason, a place for excretion should be unbearably filthy. When the team passed through this place just now, they did not discover any nearly-rotten zombies.

Just as she was thinking, the soft place suddenly started to vibrate. The team members did not stand steady for a moment; some sat on the ground with their buttocks, and some supported each other.

No one had reacted to what was happening when the ground suddenly collapsed. That towering lump of zombies in the center sank downwards in a state of seven scattered and eight fallen⁶. The team members also slid towards the center along with the zombies, and the central part opened downwards like a flower petal, forming a huge hole.

Su Wenwen deathly stuck the iron awl into the soft wall. The earth element ability user also hurriedly controlled his ability to catch the remaining falling team members, but his ability activated comparatively slowly, and many team members were not caught.

Su Wenwen exerted force with both arms, leaped towards her side, and grabbed one person’s waistband. With her other hand, she drove another section of the iron awl into the soft wall, stopping her body from continuing to slide down.

But there were still two people who fell down. Below was an expanse of flowing water, and they fell in with the zombies with a plop sound. The flowing water had a very strong corrosiveness; even if not bitten to death by zombies, their bodies would rot away bit by bit. Su Wenwen had fallen down just like this before.

The sound of tragic screams echoed in everyone’s ears. Everyone’s heart trembled along with it. Seeing their skin and flesh separating from their bones at an extremely fast speed, they truly could not bear to continue watching and all unconsciously closed their eyes.

After the soft wall slowly closed up again, the team members all sat with soft legs. But they were also afraid the soft wall would open again. They only sat for a while before the fire element ability user, with a desolate expression, requested instructions from Su Wenwen: “Team Leader Su, should we set fire to burn this place?”

Below was the corrosive flowing water. For safety’s sake, Su Wenwen had the fire element ability user first try scorching a small piece to see the situation, while at the same time having the earth element ability user prepare protective equipment.

The flame temperature of the fire element ability was considered quite high. He held up the fire with one hand, trying to burn with fire in a corner.

The flame was squeezed in the corner and was very quickly extinguished. He was slightly startled and once again patted the fire onto the soft wall, but the flame stayed on the soft wall for a short while before extinguishing again.

He increased the firepower and tried again.

Su Wenwen squatted down and reached out a hand to touch the viscous object on the soft wall. At the beginning, I didn’t understand what these viscous objects were. Now it seems they are used to prevent flames from burning this place down.

The fire element ability user also realized the flames could not burn these things away and, angered, hit the soft wall with a fist.

Su Wenwen sighed, “This place is too dangerous. We will leave here first.”

There was no other road here, so they could only continue walking down that excretion passageway. But this time, everyone quickened their footsteps.

Not a small amount of minced meat and severed limbs still remained inside the passageway. The smelly odor was richer than before. Su Wenwen took a few breaths and felt that her mouth was also full of this taste, but she did not dare to put on a gas mask, afraid that if she lost her sense of smell, her level of alertness towards her surroundings would also be lowered.

Zizi…

Su Wenwen heard the sound of a walkie-talkie. She lowered her head to check her own communication device; a light was flashing. She thought it could be used and happily opened Luo Xi’s channel to call.

But the walkie-talkie only had an expanse of a busy tone.

Strange.

She turned her head to ask if other people’s walkie-talkies could be used, but they all answered that they could not.

Originally, Su Wenwen could have avoided thinking too much about anything and just led the team members to slowly search for the person. But because the walkie-talkie had sounded that one time, her heart began to worry about Luo Xi uncontrollably.

Recalling that mental power zombie, I don’t know if there is only one or if there are many. If it is the latter, then for Luo Xi to deal with it would be equivalent to fighting a war of attrition.

She did not dare to delay for too long, and her footsteps quickened a lot again. Before long, she finally walked out of the passageway and arrived at another strange place.

This place was densely covered with spiderwebs.

These webs were just like blood vessels distributed everywhere. Su Wenwen walked near these blood vessels and probed them with a flashlight; they were unexpectedly black, and there seemed to be liquid flowing inside.

Zizi!

Hearing this sound again, Su Wenwen followed the sound, went around the webs, and found a walkie-talkie on the ground that was tied⁷ by the blood vessels.

My own walkie-talkie is still here, so this one must be Luo Xi’s walkie-talkie.

A bit of black blood had also been splashed onto the walkie-talkie, melting the plastic shell. Su Wenwen’s heart was suddenly lifted up, but as the team leader, she had to be calm.

“Everyone, be careful⁸, don’t touch these webs. The liquid inside has poison and is corrosive,” Su Wenwen quickly reminded the team members behind her. “You all install two explosives here. After they are installed, we will leave.”

“Yes, Team Leader Su.”

The team members took out the explosives, found a comparatively hidden position to install them, and after they were installed, Su Wenwen led the people to continue searching inwards.

These blood vessels looked quite fragile. No one dared to use their hands to test their toughness, and they carefully avoided them.

Su Wenwen walked a few steps and suddenly thought, the walkie-talkie just now was tied by the blood vessels. That is to say, these webs are all alive.

“Quick, defend!”

The earth element ability user did not hesitate, using his ability to control earth to wrap everyone. The light from the flashlights was also locked in, and their line of sight was blocked. They could only rely on their ears to listen to the movements outside.

At the beginning, it was a rustling sound, like something was climbing up. Following that was the sound of a dish entering an oil pot, as if green smoke was still rising.

She reached out her hand and touched the earth. It was unexpectedly warm, and the temperature was slowly rising. This won’t do. It’s equivalent to catching a turtle in an urn⁹.

Su Wenwen connected the two short iron awls into a long rod and placed the flashlight on the ground. Following a deep breath, the iron awl rapidly spun in her hand. After shattering the earth, it rotated and scattered along with the spinning wind.

To Su Wenwen’s side, it was all densely covered with black blood webs. They were broken by the touch of the iron awl, and the liquid inside also gushed out.
