Chapter 156 Blockade of Texas, Red Necks are Furious
More than a dozen blackened skeletons walked on the highway leading to Austin, their pace was slow but determined.
Last night, Mephisto's son, the Witch Heart Demon, appeared in the wilderness. He happened to see this bar. He came over to take a look out of curiosity, and casually killed the guests and the female bartender in the bar.
The purpose of the Witch Heart Demon specially coming to the earth from the hell dimension is to obtain the "St. Fangansa Contract". These dozen skeletons were just casually obtained, but they brought a big surprise to the United States. trouble.
It's like you spit everywhere and accidentally drowned a few ants.
There are many demons and monsters in the hell dimension of the Marvel Universe. Powerful demons can even spawn a large number of vassal races just by the breath they inadvertently exude.
These black skeletons created by the Witch Heart Demon are not very strong and are only immune to penetration wounds from ordinary bullets. However, they have a very troublesome characteristic: they can spread like zombie viruses.
The essence of the black skull is the product of the fire of hell. The power of the fire of hell remains in the body. This power will continue to transfer, burning the body of living creatures and destroying the soul.
It can only be cleared by holy light, magic and special superpowers.
Of course, directly destroying the skeleton body can also erase the transmission channels.
Vehicles driving on the highway soon spotted these dozen black skeletons walking. Some drivers were sharp-eyed and immediately braked and turned square. Some drivers did not pay attention and ran over them directly.
The driver who ran over him was fine. Except for the slight deformation of the front cover of the car, nothing much happened. He only heard a clicking sound.
The parking drivers were in bad luck. As soon as they stuck their heads out and planned to curse, they were met with charred skulls. Then these drivers also became members of the skeleton team and jumped out of the car with stiff movements. Climb out of the window.
Unsurprisingly, the parked vehicle was rear-ended, so the queue got longer and longer, and more and more people were stranded.
These drivers and passengers expand the Black Skull's footprint.
By the time the skeleton army completed the 100-kilometer highway and officially arrived in Austin, the team had expanded to more than 200 skeletons, of which a tour group from South America contributed more than 50 skeletons.
The Mounties and State Police in Austin have received the news. Because the skeletons were not fast, the driver behind the traffic jam was so frightened that he abandoned the car and ran back when he saw the terrifying phenomenon in front of him.
Those who ran fast escaped, while those who ran slowly became one of the skeletons.
“Don’t panic!” The boss of the Texas Mounted Police raised his loudspeaker and shouted: “When they get close, beat them hard!”
“These skeletons look scary, but they are actually very fast. They are slow and have poor defense. The guys in our hands are enough to tear them into pieces.”
This is Texas, the home base of the Texas Consortium, which among all the top ten consortiums started out as arms.
The Texas Mounted Police retains the fine traditions of the paramilitary organizations of the past. They are equipped with a submachine gun as standard, machine guns, machine cannons, and rockets.
As long as you overcome the fear in your heart, it is really not that difficult to deal with these crispy skeletons.
The black skeleton moved forward numbly, without a trace of consciousness or even a goal. It just acted on instinct and pounced on any creature it encountered.
As they approached the defense lines of mounted police and state troopers, they were immediately greeted by intensive bullets and artillery fire.
Small-caliber bullets penetrated the body and could only shake the skeletons, but large-caliber machine gun bullets could tear apart their skeletons, not to mention the power of artillery fire.
The fierce offensive lasted for a full half hour. More than two hundred skeletons were reduced to debris in the firelight, failing to break through the human defense line.
Seeing this, the bosses of the mounted police and state police breathed a sigh of relief.
The enemy was easily killed in this battle, and the enemy was still a weird skeleton, which was enough for them to get a lot of credit.
However, they were happy too early.
Black skeletons have a characteristic, just like the phototaxis of mosquitoes. They have a habit of moving to areas with a strong aura of life.
When I first came out of the roadside bar, there were many vehicles on the highway and the smell of creatures was strong, so they all went to the highway to gather.
When there was a traffic jam on the highway, the driver behind saw the terrifying scene ahead. Most people turned around and ran back to the city, attracting most of the skeletons to follow them like fish bait.
But some people panicked and ran towards the wilderness on both sides of the road, thus attracting a small number of skeletons. Some of these skeletons caught up with the driver and passengers, and some were lost in the wilderness, heading towards the lively town that they sensed. They were no longer living creatures, so they naturally did not need food, and they were never tired.
There is also an even more miraculous phenomenon. Some black skeletons who were hit by vehicles only lost their lower bodies, but their upper bodies were hung on the chassis of the car, walking in the opposite direction and spreading to other cities.
So before the mounted police and state police had a celebration party, they received warning calls from towns around Austin that day.
Black skeletons appear everywhere!
Just like an infectious disease, the Texas government failed to control the source immediately and tasted the consequences.
The FBI branches stationed in Austin, the capital of Texas, and Houston, the largest city, immediately reported the situation to the headquarters.
The top brass in the United States were in an uproar.
The alien threat has not found a way to deal with it, and "infectious" hellish creatures suddenly broke out.
"Fuck! What happened to the United States in the past two years?"
"Are we cursed?"
The big shots broke through their defenses one after another, they had just Knowing the danger of the Skrulls, and now hearing about the hell creatures, I am completely uneasy!
"Don't scream, think of a way quickly."
The "Fine Eagles" forced themselves to calm down, and naturally came up with ways to deal with infectious diseases.
"There is no other way. Notify the states bordering Texas to block traffic to ensure that hell creatures do not spread."
"This..." Naturally, some people realized that this move might cause The adverse consequences: "I'm afraid the 'Red Necks' will make a fuss."
"If they want to make a fuss, let them wipe out the skeleton monsters first!"
It can be seen from the pictures obtained so far that although the black skeleton is easy to destroy with weapons, as soon as it comes into contact with a living person, it can transmit strange flames to the living person in the blink of an eye, and the living person will turn into a black skeleton in seconds. There is no chance of rescue.
Such a terrifying hell creature is no less of a threat to high-level figures who care about their lives than the Skrulls who can transform at will.
No matter how many "noble" and "excellent" labels they usually put on themselves, they actually know that they are just ordinary people.
Such an equal and efficient way of death brings a fairness that the big shots are unwilling to accept.
After the order was conveyed, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Louisiana bordering Texas took action and sent a large number of military police to set up defense lines at the border to guard against the spread of black skeletons. .
Since the black skeletons are not very fast and are even slower than the walking speed of normal people, they are actually still concentrated in the area around Austin.
But this area is too big, and America's vast territory and sparse population have become a flaw at this time. Coupled with weak grassroots management and control, the Texas government has no idea how many black skeletons there are in the territory.
The threat of black skeletons has not yet spread to the entire state of Texas, but the federal government’s blockade order has stimulated the grumpy “red necks”.
"Fake! The federal government wants us all to be eaten by monsters!"
"Resist, we must resist federal tyranny!"
"Independence, Texas must be independent!"
The "red necks" took out the "Lone Star" flags they kept at home and took to the streets to demonstrate.
The Texas government had to deploy police forces to maintain stability, further weakening its control over the situation.
There will be three updates every day, and more will be updated when there is time.
