Although the scale of this small city is not very large, it is not so simple to find out a person who has lost contact with him and does not know whether he is alive or dead. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

For a few hours, Xing Lie almost never stopped, and he almost dug all the mouse holes.

And during this time, every time he walked through an area, Xing Lie would reopen his eyes and search for the surrounding places where the zombies gathered through his farsighted ability, and only in this way could he know Ziruo's whereabouts.

But even with the powerful auxiliary ability of White Eyes, Xing Lie still found nothing, although there are countless zombies distributed in this small city, but there is no large-scale gathering of zombies in any place.

For Yang Lei, Xing Lie didn't have too much hope, even if he divided the direction with him to search, if he found something, he would definitely contact him as soon as possible.

But until now, not only Ziruo, but even Yang Lei has not had any news to pass on.

The number of zombies around is getting more and more, even if Xing Lie has zombie thorn dolphins and parasitic jellyfish to open the way, he can search and fight for hours without stopping, even Xing Lie is difficult to eat, and looking for Ziruo, he can only search the surroundings through the white eyes, and he can't go around every room in every building in order to ensure that the search is careful, in this way, I am afraid that if all the buildings are completed in person, it will take at least two days and two nights of sleepless work.

Xing Lie can afford to survive in time, but the more and more zombies gather will not agree, Xing Lie and Yang Lei appeared in this small city, the fresh flesh and blood breath of the two big living people is enough to make the surrounding zombies even more crazy, even the zombies passing by this small city will definitely follow the flesh and blood breath to swarm.

However, it is precisely because of the zombies' sensitivity to fresh flesh and blood that Xing Lie can search from house to house without having to go so troublesome, as long as he can find any place where zombies gather in large numbers now, it is estimated that Ziruo's whereabouts will be revealed.

Xing Lie walked almost two-thirds or more of the small city alone, and finally not only failed to find Ziruo, but also failed to find even a trace of clues, it seems that there are only three possibilities left, one is that Ziruo is in the direction that Yang Lei is going to explore, and the other is that Ziruo has left the small city, as for the last possibility, it is what Xing Lie is most unwilling to accept.

Maybe on the surface, it is not impossible for Zi Ruo to leave the small city, but the reason why Xing Lie is still looking around so hard is that he thinks that Zi Ruo has not left.

According to Yang Lei, he and Zi Ruo were separated for about three hours before they met Xing Lie, and then the two spent more than an hour rushing to this small city, that is, less than five hours apart.

There are many zombies scattered in the small city, and there is almost no pure land, and it is precisely because of this that Xing Lie has made some calculations in his heart.

In terms of normal walking speed, it will take at least three hours to choose the nearest route from the place where Yang Lei was separated from him before, until he leaves the town, and if he leaves the town through the other three roads, it will take about four hours.

Of course, with Ziruo's physical strength, running may not be much slower than a car, but there is a premise, if there are too many obstacles on the road, no matter how fast she has, she can only be forced to move forward step by step.

As for the obstacles in this small city, of course, there are zombies everywhere, Xing Lie through the density of zombies around, and the clues of understanding Ziruo's physical strength and how long it takes to leave the small city at normal walking speed, almost accurately came to a time range, that is, Ziruo needs at least six hours to leave the small city, and it is still in the case of choosing the nearest road.

After some searching, there was no gain, Xing Lie's face also looked a little unsightly, and after meeting Yang Lei, seeing that he looked depressed, he didn't need to ask to know that he also didn't find any clues.

"It's over now, Zhang Hao of the intermediate class is interested in Ziruo, this is not a secret at all, even if he can survive in the world of this mission and complete the main quest and return to the university smoothly, but in the future, I will inevitably be found out by Zhang Hao. ”

Yang Lei said with a rather depressed expression, maybe until now, he couldn't see clearly that there was a subtle relationship between Xing Lie and Ziruo, maybe he thought that Xing Lie was also afraid of completely annoying Zhang Hao in the intermediate class, so whether it was his previous or current performance, he would be so eager.

Xing Lie didn't bother to explain anything to him, even if Zhang Hao had a place among the many masters in the intermediate class, he was still in the junior class, and no matter how long his hand was, it was impossible for him Zhang Hao to reach out in front of him personally.

"Yang Lei, do you think it is possible that Ziruo has left this small city now?"

Xing Lie really ran out of ideas at this time, no one could find it, he didn't even leave a clue, and he didn't reply to the message, if all this is normal, it is impossible!

Yang Lei thought about it, and finally shook his head and said: "I think it's unlikely, Ziruo and I are separated here, if she wants to go to the siege alone, then the route out of the small city is also the farthest one, you can also see, there are so many zombies around, even if we join forces, it will take a long time to break out, not to mention Ziruo who strengthens the auxiliary route." ”

Speaking of this, Yang Lei's eyes suddenly changed, and he slapped his forehead vigorously and said: "Xing Lie, I thought of a possibility, when you fought with Ni Na before, I heard the explosions clearly, so I rushed in the direction of the sound, and finally saw you, at that time, I was separated from Ziruo not long ago, it is certain that Ziruo must have heard the gunshot, do you think she may have followed the direction where the gunfire came?"

"The direction where the gunshots came from?" Xing Lie glanced into the distance and continued, "Isn't that the direction we came from. ”

"That's right, that direction is also the closest road out of the town, and when I was separated from Ziruo, there weren't so many zombies around, if you want to break through, it shouldn't be difficult to do it with Ziruo's ability, and this can also explain why we almost turned over the town, and we couldn't find Ziruo's whereabouts. ”

I have to say that Yang Lei's words do have some truth, if Ziruo had already left the town before the two of them set off from the paper factory, and encountered some unusual things on the way, which disrupted her purpose, if this is the case, then everything can barely be said.

"It seems that the most likely thing at the moment is only what you said, then let's go back the same way, two hours later, whether we can find Ziruo or not, the goal we set before must also be implemented. ”

Xing Lie made a decision, Yang Lei certainly didn't understand Xing Lie's intentions, and didn't understand why he was in a hurry to get rid of the Sphinx, which didn't seem to be a threat at all.

However, in Xing Lie's heart, it was another calculation, from leaving the paper factory before to now, it has been almost ten hours unconsciously, and the Sphinx also has similar abilities to the zombies, that is, with the passage of time, the comprehensive strength will gradually increase.

There is also a deep meaning in the word 'gradually', the strength of the zombies will gradually improve over time, because the zombies themselves are very weak, so even if the comprehensive strength will be improved at all times, the effect is not too obvious.

But the Sphinx is different, because its starting point in terms of strength is too high, so every trace of improvement in comprehensive strength will bring very obvious results.

Due to the lack of supplies, his own side will only get weaker and weaker in terms of physical strength, which is extremely inversely proportional to the Sphinx, and under this situation, delaying time will only make him more passive.

Just like when they came, the zombie spiny dolphin and the parasitic jellyfish opened the way one after another, Xing Lie and Yang Lei carefully observed the surroundings in the process of walking, hoping to find clues about Ziruo's whereabouts.

When they came, neither Xing Lie nor Yang Lei cared much about the things around the street, but now it is different, and it is not allowed for the two of them to be careless.

The number of zombies scattered around is denser than when they came, which also greatly increases the resistance of the zombie thorn dolphin when rolling, and further limits its speed.

Looking at the surrounding situation, if Xing Lie and Yang Lei did not choose to return the same way before, but continued to search in the center of the small city without giving up, then it would not be much, it would only take two hours, and they might completely fall into passivity, and finally end up being surrounded by countless zombies in the small city.

Obviously, Yang Lei and Xing Lei both realized the seriousness of the problem, so they invariably accelerated the pace and gradually increased the speed of the breakthrough while surveying the surroundings as much as possible.

It didn't take long for Xing Lie, who was walking briskly, to stop suddenly, and even the zombie thorn dolphin suddenly stopped, making Yang Lei, who was less than three meters behind him, almost hit him head-on.

Yang Lei was unhappy in his heart, but it was not easy to have a seizure, but he was very curious about Xing Lie's sudden actions.

At this time, Xing Lie was looking ahead with a puzzled look, Yang Lei was curious, but also followed Xing Lie's gaze, but he didn't make any substantive discoveries.

"What's the matter, did you say you found some clues?"

Yang Lei didn't understand whether Xing Lie had found something, so he could only ask.

Xing Lie stared ahead for another two minutes before he came back to his senses, and a smile curled up at the corner of his mouth.

The change in Xing Lie's expression fell in Yang Lei's eyes, and it was clear that he had made a very important discovery!
