Past the halfway mark of this expressway, near Exit 125, our convoy slightly slowed down before we heard Artem's voice in the radio:
-
*bzzt*
[Nyebo— Deadheads ahead, three in total, proceeding to slow down. We'll take care of them in just a minute or so.]
*bzzt*
-
*bzzt*
"Where did it come from?"
*bzzt*
-
*bzzt*
[My bet's the exit but we'll check, no need for you guys to get down.]
*bzzt*
-
Then Jared joined in:
-
*bzzt*
[Bro, I think they climbed the wall.]
*bzzt*
-
*bzzt*
"How?"
*bzzt*
-
Then a few more voices joined in:
-
*bzzt*
[Yeah, how?]
*bzzt*
-
*bzzt*
[Explain.]
*bzzt*
-
*bzzt*
[I can see from my scope that the exit's still tightly blocked but I could see a rope dangling from the walls. A grappling hook type of situation and they seemed to have camped here for a bit.]
*bzzt*
-
*bzzt*
"Now you're losing me— Wait, I think I get it, they're probably infected on the way here or succumb to their injuries. We might have to go down."
*bzzt*
