647. Battle of Christophsis (thirteen)

Anakin-Skywalker stood in front of the wreckage of a crashed APOD-33 transport ship, looking at the dozens of metal cans that had been broken open from the inside and groaning in silence.

"General, we have checked the surrounding air composition and did not find any abnormal germs, so this can only be some kind of monster." Rex came over and said.

"It could also be a beast created through biotechnology." Anakin said, looking at the sharp claw scratches on the tin can from the inside out.

"But if it was a beast attack, what I'm more confused about is, where are the bodies of the victims?" Ahsoka-Tano was exploring 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 hands and feet, but there was no body at all.

He frowned, "That shouldn't be the case. 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 carefully searching the places where these transport planes fell." Rex said.

Anakin shook his head, "There is no time. Separatist fleet has already started to counterattack after receiving reinforcements. The situation over there at Obi-Wan is very dangerous. Damn it! Those treacherous Hutt!" He said, shaking his fist fiercely.

"General! There are survivors here!" a Clone Trooper suddenly shouted.

"Survivor? Why didn't I find it?" Ahsoka-Tano looked over. According to her induction, there should be no living people in that direction.

But under the light of Clone Trooper's tactical flashlight, there were indeed several people standing in the corner with their backs to this side. They were all dressed like Christophsian's local soldiers. However, they were just standing in the corner at the moment, bumping their foreheads against the wall, and their arms did not move at all during the entire action. It looked extremely weird.

"Hey!! What's going on with you! What happened here?" Clone Trooper said as he walked over.

"Don't go there!! That's a corpse over there!" Anakin suddenly shouted.

Clone Trooper immediately stopped and raised his gun, "But general, they are still active..."

"The Force can't go wrong, there are only corpses over there." Anakin opened Lightsaber and walked over step by step.

Sure enough, after hearing the voices here, the Christophsis soldiers slowly turned their heads, and a terrifying scene appeared in front of Clone Trooper and Anakin!

I could only see that the entire faces of these people were bloody and bloody, and one of them even had half of his chin dropped. But even with such injuries that ordinary people would never survive, they still followed the sound and walked towards this side, and their speed became faster and faster, and finally they even ran away!

"Shoot!" Anakin ordered decisively!

Boo hoo hoo~~!! Clone Trooper carried out the order without hesitation. Their precise firepower immediately knocked these people to the ground, but they were still struggling to get up.

Rex took a step forward and shot one of them in the head, making him completely motionless.

"Are these... still 'people'?" Rex said with a frown.

"Here we go again!" another soldier shouted in the other direction.

The light of dozens of tactical flashlights immediately shined over, and only dozens or hundreds of people were seen crawling out from the shadows over there! There are Christophsian soldiers and civilians among them, but almost unanimously, they are all bloody and bloody, with broken hands, broken legs, and even disembowelment of everything!

These people followed the sound and ran over wildly, roaring like wild beasts! Not only that, but more 'people' crawled out from the corner!!

"This must be Separatists's secret weapon! They even attack civilians!" Ahsoka-Tano said.

"Shoot, I'm sure they are no longer alive." Anakin's face was extremely gloomy and ugly. Although he knew clearly that these were corpses, when he gave this order, his heart was still trembling.

Clone Trooper fired without hesitation, and the dense blaster beam immediately knocked down a large number of zombies.

"Attack on the head!" Rex had already seen the clues and said loudly.

Clone Trooper immediately adjusted the direction of the attack. Generally, when shooting on the battlefield, one mainly shoots at the opponent's torso. This is mainly to facilitate better aiming in a hurry. Moreover, even if one hit cannot be fatal, the wounded can also involve the opponent's medical soldiers, and 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 their marksmanship is very accurate.

These dozens or hundreds of zombies pose no threat to Clone Trooper at all!

However, as the gunshots continued to sound, several larger things began to run over.

"Attention! A new target has appeared! It's going very fast!" a soldier shouted.

"I'm coming!" Anakin pulled out Lightsaber and rushed forward.

Uh-huh!! Lightsaber passed by instantly, but Anakin immediately felt that Lightsaber did not cut off the target! His heart trembled, and he immediately rolled back to avoid the sharp claws that followed. At the same time, he also saw the target clearly.

This is a person who is about 2.8 meters tall, with fine green scales all over his body, and looks like a combination of a frog and a lizard. And just now, he Lightsaber hit this man's chest. Although it made a very deep wound, it actually failed to cut him off! The toughness of this man's body is incredible!

The man roared and rushed over again, spraying some green liquid from his wound. Anakin immediately felt something was wrong. He waved Lightsaber in mid-air to evaporate every drop of the sprayed liquid, and then Blitz scratched the long claws on the target's hand, and it ended with a sound!

Then Lightsaber cut off his head with a sword again!

This behemoth finally fell to the ground motionless...

"General! Maybe these are the 'monsters' who attacked Christophsian army!" said a Clone Trooper.

Anakin's face was still ugly, and he said slowly, "No, this is not a monster. This is... Indjori."

"Indjori? I have heard that they seemed to have caused a riot several years ago." Ahsoka-Tano said, "But I have never seen their appearance, but...Indjori are all like this?"

"Although Indjori is violent, it is definitely not this kind of irrational killing machine." Anakin said solemnly, "Come and check their blood. I think these living dead should be related to this blood. Be careful, it is poisonous."

A Clone Trooper came over and picked up the instrument for testing. He soon said, "Yes, this green liquid contains a very high number of viruses. However... this virus seems to be dying rapidly in the air."

He said as he collected some green liquid in a unique sealed container.

"Looking at the appearance of those corpses, it should be contact transmission." Anakin said, "Let's go back to the headquarters immediately! The matter is more serious than I thought!"
