Chapter 561 - Resistance
"Ugh!" Conan was also visibly taken aback. "What is this?"
"If we knew, we wouldn't have to be so alarmed," Qian Yu gritted her teeth and gradually retreated. "Anyway, we'd better go back a little bit, get back up the stairs and see if we can take this guy down."
"Is he the only one?" Conan asked. "We ...... Let's lock the door first and see what the intelligence level of these guys really is. ”
"He just climbed up from the window, I think his intelligence level is probably enough to open the door......" Qian Yu hurried Gray Plains up the stairs, and then prepared to attack with the Traceless Umbrella. Hurry up and get everyone up, these guys are tough to deal with, we need to find a chance to drive out of here! ”
"Wait a minute!" With that, Conan lifted his watch, then aimed it at the monster, and then pulled the trigger of the anesthetic needle.
But they all found that the monster didn't seem to be affected in any way, and it was likely that they didn't even realize what Conan had just launched.
"Gray Plains, you go and call them all up, go!" Conan shouted, then unscrewed a wooden handrail from the stairs next to him. "Stand back, I'll try this."
Immediately, Conan's shoes began to glow with the light of the time it had begun to function, and the wooden armrest in his hand flew in front of Qian Yu with such force, leaving a long afterimage on his retina.
This time, Conan's attack finally worked—though it was inevitable as long as Newton was a giant of physics—and the monster collapsed backwards on the bed under the impact of the wooden handrail, and his head slammed against the wall, twisting to the side at an eerie angle.
"Ahh "This ...... Is he okay? Although it is said to be the walking dead, if we do die, we will be in big trouble......"
"I don't know, but after all, they attacked it...... Conan was obviously a little panicked, because the walking dead seemed to be alive and dead at the moment, but the next moment, his words were choked in his mouth.
"Roar—" let out a low cry, and the monster sat straight to his feet, his head apparently broken off and dangling weakly on his shoulder.
“!!!” Both Qianyu and Conan had a look of horror on their faces, because considering that the monster's head and body were obviously only connected to the skin, which meant that the opponent's neck had been completely broken and the spinal cord had been severed, in this case, the other party should have been completely paralyzed, but the other party sat up as if nothing had happened to his head.
"What the hell is this?" Qian Yu muttered. "Robots? Or is it a puppet? How exactly do they move? ”
"It's certainly not a puppet," Conan immediately denied the latter. "After I kicked him there just now, the puppet should be out of control. As for the robots...... I can't rule it out, but can robots really be so sensitive? ”
With that, the two of them gradually retreated to the stairs, looking at the monster that slowly opened the door and came out.
But some things are trickier than the monster itself – if you think one monster is tricky enough, think of two monsters, and then think of a bunch of monsters.
In front of them, many of the windows inside the main hallway were broken, and many more monsters broke the windows in front of them and crawled in. Except for the security door at the gate, there don't seem to be any monsters breaking in, and there are monsters entering the other internal and external communication passages, and there are at least 20 of them.
"What should I do?" Chiba scanned the movements of these monsters with the auxiliary unit, recording their possible attack range and his own plans when they fought against them. "I think if we don't find a way to escape, we're in big trouble."
"Call them all up, and then we'll find a place to jump out," Conan was also analyzing the way out. "Our car is on the side of the main entrance, we just need to attract all the monsters in the neighborhood to it, and then jump out from the second floor to escape."
"But why would they attack us?" Qian Yu asked. "Did someone lure them to our side?"
"Conspiracy theories, reasonable," Conan nodded. "But the problem is, I suspect we've been dragged in as substitutes for the dead - have you seen the old aunt? Have you seen anyone else who was supposed to be here? Why didn't the people who were supposed to be here show up here? ”
By this point, the monster had already walked up the stairs and was about to stretch out its claws in their direction.
"I'm coming!" Qian Yu suddenly shouted loudly, and the tip of the Traceless Umbrella in his hand had already stabbed the monster in the chest, causing the monster to fall backwards on the stairs and fall to the ground. And his already bent head was even more slumped backwards when he fell, and when it touched the ground, it folded backwards at a greater angle than before, and Chiba and Conan even believed that the monster's skin might be close to breaking.
At this time, the voices of the children of the detective group appeared in the corridor on the second floor behind them.
"Everybody's out!" Gray Yuan said. "What are we going to do next?"
"Go to the window at the front entrance!" Chiba watched the monsters that gradually poured into the stairs from other doors and windows, and commanded loudly. "Hurry up! We're evacuated from over there! ”
A place like a staircase is better suited to a one-to-many than a flat one, as long as the condescending future is pushed down, then it is possible to knock down a whole bunch of monsters at once and then maintain control of the staircase.
And, there's good news - the monster that first appeared seems to have completely stopped moving and stopped moving after more than 3 records of knocking down the stairs and falling downstairs. And his location is still at the top of the stairs, so the other monsters seem to have some scruples when they walk over...... Wait a minute, have a scruples?
Qian Yu reacted with some astonishment, as if something was wrong, and then carefully checked the movements of all the monsters, and finally confirmed the fact that those monsters were consciously avoiding the fallen corpse when planning their routes.
At the same time, Chiba also realized another fact - the body proportions of the monster that fell in the first place seemed to be a little wrong.
Judging from the monster's human form, he should have been a human during his lifetime, but if death didn't change his body structure, the proportions of this person's body would be a little too incongruous. His hands seemed a little too low in comparison......
