Chapter 650: The Battle of Christophsis (13)
Anakin Skywalker stood in front of the wreckage of a crashed APOD-33 Dropship, staring at the dozens of Iron Barrels that had been ripped open from the inside, groaning.
"General, we have checked the surrounding air composition and found no abnormal germs, so this can only be some kind of Monster." Rex walked over and said.
"It may also be a Beast made through Biotechnology," Anakin said, looking at the Claw Marks on the Iron Barrel from the inside out.
"But if it was a Beast Attack, what I'm more puzzled about is, where did the bodies of those victims go?" Ahsoka Tano probed on the other side.
Anakin looked around and found that there was indeed a lot of blood, as well as some Scattered Weapons, Helmets, and even some Severed Limbs, but he couldn't see any corpses at all.
He frowned, "It shouldn't be, according to the situation at the scene, there should be at least 10 corpses..."
"The situation is a bit strange. It seems that we need to invest in power to carefully search for the places where these Dropships fell." Rex said.
Anakin shook his head, "There is no time, the Separatist Fleet has already started to counterattack after receiving reinforcements, and the situation on Obi-Wan's side is very dangerous. Damn it! Those treacherous Hutts!" He said, waving his fist ruthlessly.
"General! There are survivors here!" A Clone Trooper suddenly shouted.
"Survivors? Why didn't I find them?" Ahsoka Tano looked over, and under her Force, there should be no living people in that direction.
But under the Tactical Flashlight of the Clone Troopers, there were indeed a few people standing in the corner with their backs to this side. They were all dressed as Local Christophsian Soldiers, but they were just standing in the corner at the moment constantly bumping their foreheads against the wall all at once, and their arms didn't move at all during the whole movement. Their appearance was extremely strange.
"Hey! What's going on with you?! What happened here?" the Clone Trooper said as he walked over.
"Don't go there!! There are corpses over there!" Anakin suddenly shouted.
The Clone Troopers immediately stopped and raised their Blasters, "But General, they are still active..."
"The Force can't be wrong, there are only corpses over there." Anakin activated his Lightsaber and walked over step by step.
Sure enough, after hearing the voice here, those Christophsian Soldiers turned their heads slowly, and a terrifying scene appeared in front of the Clone Troopers and Anakin!
He only saw that the entire faces of these people were bloody, and torn, and even half of one of their jaws fell off, but even with such injuries that ordinary people would never survive, they still followed the sound and walked towards his side and the speed was getting faster and faster, and finally, they even ran wildly!
"Fire!" Anakin ordered decisively!
Shua~~! ! The Clone Troopers carried out their orders without hesitation, and their precise fireing knocked the men down in an instant, but they still struggled to get up.
Rex took a step forward and shot one of them in the head, keeping him completely still.
"Are these... still 'people'?" Rex said with a frown.
"Again!" another Soldier yelled in the other direction.
The light of dozens of Tactical Flashlights shone immediately, only to see Dozens, no Hundreds of People crawling out of the shadows over there! Among them were Christophsian Soldiers and Civilians, but almost all of them were bloody and torn, with broken hands, broken feet, and even disemboweled stomachs!
These people rushed over following the sound, roaring like wild beasts! Not only that, but more 'people' crawled out from the corner!!
"This must be the Secret Weapon of the Separatists! They're even targeting Civilians!" Ahsoka Tano said.
"Shoot, I'm sure they are no longer alive." Anakin's face was extremely gloomy and ugly. Although he knew that these were corpses, his heart was still trembling when he gave this order.
The Clone Troopers fired without hesitation, and the dense Blaster Energy Beams immediately knocked down a large number of Zombies.
"Attack the head!" Rex had already seen the clue and said loudly.
The Clone Troopers immediately adjusted their attack direction. Generally, shooting on the battlefield is mainly to shoot at the opponent's torso. This is mainly to facilitate better aiming in a hurry, and even if one blow cannot be fatal, the wounded can still affect the opponent's Medical Treatment of Soldiers, even the screams of the wounded can also affect Morale.
But this doesn't mean that they can't hit the head. In fact, each of them has very Accurate Marksmanship.
These Hundreds of Zombies pose no threat to the Clone Troopers at all!
However, as the Beams continued to ring out, several larger things began to run over.
"Attention! There are new targets appearing! The speed is very fast!" A Clone shouted.
"I'm coming!" Anakin drew out his Lightsaber and greeted him.
Swish!! The Lightsaber flashed across in an instant, but Anakin immediately felt that the Lightsaber didn't go through the target! With a shudder in his heart, he immediately turned back, avoiding the Sharp Claws that followed, and at the same time, he also saw clearly the appearance of the target.
This is a person about 2.8 meters tall, covered in Green and Fine Scales, who looks like a combination of a Frog and a Lizard, and just now he hit this man's chest with his Lightsaber, although he also cut a very deep wound, he couldn't slice through him! The toughness of this person's body is incredible!
The man roared and rushed over again, spraying some green liquid from his wound, Anakin immediately felt that something was wrong, he waved his Lightsaber in mid-air and evaporated every drop of the sprayed Green Liquid, and then with lightning, slicing across the Long Sharp Claws on the target's hand, and it snapped off!
Immediately afterwards, the Lightsaber cut off his head again with a swish!
The Huge Monster finally fell to the ground...
"General! Maybe this is the 'Monster' that attacked the Christophsian Army!" said a Clone Trooper.
Anakin's face was still ugly, he said slowly: "No, this is not a Monster. This is... a Yinchorri."
"The Yinchorris? I've heard that they seemed to cause a riot a few years ago," Ahsoka Tano said, "but I've never seen them, it's just... so?"
"Although the Yinchorri are ferocious, they are certainly not such irrational killing machines." Anakin said in a deep voice, "Come here and check their blood. I think these living dead should be related to this kind of blood. Be careful, it's poisonous."
A clone Trooper came over, picked up an Instrument to test, and soon said: "Yes, this Green Liquid contains a very high amount of an Unknown Virus. But... this Virus seems to be dying rapidly in the air. "
As he spoke, he collected some Green Liquid in a Unique Airtight Container.
"Looking at the appearance of those corpses, it should be contact transmission." Anakin said, "Let's go! Let's go back to the Headquarters immediately! This matter is more serious than I imagined!!"
