High Time for Stealth.

I'm glad that the last contest got extra times to the deadline and I at last try another stealth which is a lot different than the other stealth combat I showed earlier. I reached the high time for stealth as the floor was filled with some Bloaters.

Btw, I'm showing the moments from a future time of the concept to join the contest. I'll continue the concept from where I paused it with my next posts.

At the next chapter (Bus Depot), we had to go through a tunnel and this is the last tunnel we need to pass in this game. After getting inside the tunnel, we were getting into dark.

Suddenly I noticed a Bloater walking around and I thought he's the only one around so I thought of fighting it as I can't take them down in stealth.

I threw some explosives on it and there came some runners so I had to open fire and the Bloater, you see what he did to Joel.

This time, I ignored the Bloater and I was looking around for other monsters and found some runners that I started to take down.

And there was a clicker whom I went to take down in stealth but it understood my presence and started screaming which attracted the Bloater and we're done again.

After taking down all the runner at the next time, I shiv killed the clicker and this time I did it right,

Then I decided to move forward leaving the Bloater behind and I found more runners along with a clicker and I started hunting them down in stealth.

It was challenging as there was water on the floor of this part and they might hear me walking on the water if I do it fast so I did as slow as I could.

I went ahead and got surprised to see two Bloaters at the same spot, along with some runners and clickers.

I knew I wouldn't win this fight if I start shooting them as taking down two Bloaters doesn't seem like a smart move so I started taking down the runners with arrows.

I went through a door and I found some runners waiting to turn into clickers maybe. After shooting one of them with an arrow to decrease the risk, I took down the other two in stealth.

Then I decided to get back to the first Bloater and take it down as I was thinking of not leaving these monsters behind alive and I started attacking the Bloater after climbing on a bus.

The Bloater was smart enough to follow me on the roofs so I kept changing my spot and I kept attacking it and at last I took it down.

Then I moved forward and I started taking down the leftover runners and clickers around the twin Bloaters.

When there were only two Bloaters left, I decided to leave without taking them down. I helped Ellie climbing that tall container and when she pushed a crate down for me to climb up, it made noises and the Bloaters got alerted so I had to be fast.

I just didn't have the gut to wait up there so I started running away taking Ellie after getting to the other side though I noticed later that those monsters didn't have a way to follow us and I was regretting that I could shoot them when I was on top of that container.
