Chapter 16: Departure (3)
"You are really an incomprehensible race. Viren didn't want to joke with them anymore, his eyes swept back and forth over the group of about seven or eight people. The little girl from before was no exception. Viren observed the little girl in particular, and found that although the little girl was very young in appearance and very thin in stature, she belonged to the kind of person who was particularly malnourished. But her eyes were no longer the normal black or pale blue, but the color of blood.
Viren, who was accustomed to seeing blood, was already familiar with such a color, but for this little girl's eyes were actually such a color, Viren had seen it for the first time. If you just look at it, you really can't see that this little girl is different from other humans. But if you look closely, you'll see that his eyeballs are completely covered in blood-red. It's like your whole eye is soaked in blood.
Except for this little girl, the eyeballs of everyone present were like this, except for red, all of them were red, and there was not a single normal human color. If there is any difference between their eyes, it is only the shade of red in the eyeballs. This is the color that only becomes after eating human flesh, and it is the color that makes Viren extremely angry. Eyeballs like this had only been seen by Veren in Rebecc's body before. And at that time, Rebeek was no longer a human, but a demon.
"Obviously you are already an endangered race, why at this time, instead of gathering the survivors to increase the hope of survival, you actually eat your own kind, what do you think?"
"What do you think?" said the strong man after sneering, "How do you think I have lived for so many years? In just a dozen years, I have witnessed one refugee settlement after another springing up like mushrooms after a rain, but then quickly disappearing. These refugee settlements are both state and private. A large settlement like Tiandu can accommodate hundreds of thousands of refugees, and the defense can be said to be armed to the teeth, which can be called an ancient castle. The small ones also have one or two hundred people, and they are also giving everything they have to defense. But these eventually turned into the dust of history. Do you know why? Let me tell you, one is because if you want to keep stretching out, you have to have plenty of food. The more people there are, the more food you need. Even if you are alone, if you don't eat for a week, or don't drink water for three days, you'll die of thirst and starvation! So you see, even a large-scale fortress like Tiandu City was eventually breached, and the 100,000 people in the entire Tiandu City eventually either became food for those zombies or turned into zombies! Only less than 20 people escaped from the entire city, you know? And one last point, let me tell you, that is, no matter what era it is, as long as there are people, then there are all kinds of different classes! Low-level people are cannon fodder, tools, and slaves in front of high-level people! Even Tiandu, which has always flaunted fairness and justice, is no exception! Since those high-ranking people can indulge in eating, drinking, and having fun in the apocalyptic era, then why can't I do this? I'm just an ordinary person, and since I can't save this world, then why should I be a savior, I might as well eat, drink, and have fun, right?"
Speaking of this, the big man paused halfway, then looked at Viren with a look of consternation, and asked, "You said we humans, so what are you?"
Viren grinned at the big man according to the method that Qi Tianci often used in the future: "What am I, can't you guess now? In this world, what race has suppressed you to the point that only a small group of you remain?"
The big man retreated again and again, sitting on the ground, sweat falling on his body like rain. "You, you're a zombie?"
"Zombies?" Viren frowned, shook his head, and said, "I'm not a zombie, I'm human. However, it is no longer the human beings of your time, and you, in my time, have perished for hundreds of thousands of years. ”
"You're crazy. Ha ha. The big man suddenly laughed and pointed at Viren and said, "You are a madman, I thought you were so powerful, but it turned out to be a person who was frightened crazy by the group of bitches outside." Although the meat quality of the madman is much worse than that of a normal meat man, the taste is still barely edible. Then, Dahan stood up and said to the people behind him, "Brothers, pack up your things, we're ready to do it!"
And after receiving the attack signal, the group of people behind him raised their weapons and rushed towards Veron. I saw that the "weapons" in the hands of these people can be said to be of various kinds and types. Aside from kitchen knives, sticks, and brooms, there really aren't any real weapons in sight. Even the big man was just holding a mountain-opening knife that looked like he had a posture in his hand. These are not "weapons" at all. ”
Looking at the humans rushing towards him, Viren shook his head helplessly: "Why don't you believe what I said when I tell the truth?" Then, with just a slight flick of his fingers, several ice picks suddenly appeared and galloped towards these humans.
Where have these people ever seen any magic? Seeing these ice picks that suddenly appeared, they actually thought that their eyes were just spent, and they still rushed towards Veron with a bloodthirsty expression. But only a few seconds passed, and everyone except for the big man who stood still and the little girl who ran at the back of the crowd were pierced by Viren's ice pick.
"I said it, I'm human. But it's not human beings like you. Viren looked at the big man who was sitting on the ground and said, "Before, I used to feel guilty about you, but now, in my opinion, you people are completely to blame for all the consequences!"
A flame suddenly appeared in Viren's hand, and just as the flames were about to pounce on the strong man, the strong man finally said the last words of his life: "Ahh。。。。。。hh It turns out that you are a magician!"
Dahan's words were accompanied by screams. That's because the flames emitted by Viren have already begun to burn on Dahan's body. This is the first time that Viren has used punishment on people. Before that, no matter how much Viren hated his enemies, he would not let others be tortured. It's about taking out the enemy in as clean a way as possible. And this time, Viren vented all his hatred on this big man.
There is no need for Viren to know what this big man has been through before, and he doesn't want to know why this big man has changed from an ordinary person struggling in the apocalypse to the current person who actually lives a life of cannibalism. For Viren, he just wanted to burn this big man to ashes with a purifying flame in order to make up for his previous mistakes. How much human flesh has this big man eaten over the years? Viren didn't know, but if this big man was just killing people, then Viren wouldn't have done this to him.
The big man screamed in the flames, trying to extinguish the flames by drenching himself in water and rolling on the ground. But no matter what, the flames on his body not only did not go out, but the flames grew bigger and bigger, and there was no way to extinguish them. Gradually, after ten minutes, the big man finally lay on the ground motionless, but there was no skin on his body, only charred wreckage.
In this short period of ten minutes, it may be the most torturous time in Dahan's life, and it is also the last time in his life. And for the little girl on the side, it was also a torment.
The little girl had been following the big man for six or seven years. In the beginning, the little girl fled with her mother to a base before Dahan. However, I didn't expect that only a few days later, the little girl's mother suddenly encountered hundreds of zombies because she was out looking for food with other people.
Originally, hundreds of zombies were not a huge number, but there were only a few people who went out at that time. And it's basically women and children. There are only three men in charge of protection.
Coupled with the fact that there was no means of transportation, a few people in the group were soon chased by zombies who didn't know what it was. And the final outcome is very simple, everyone including the little girl's mother dies. At this moment, the little girl, like many children in this world, became an orphan who could only survive on her own.
Although the death of her own mother was the greatest misfortune for the little girl, the little girl was extremely lucky. Unlike other private settlements, although the Han also established a dictatorship, he did not turn his men into his own slaves, as other dictators did. Rather, it is to allocate the resources that they have collected according to the method of a laborer. And if she is really a person who is unable to work, like this little girl, Dahan did not let her be his sex slave, but was arranged to work with other women to provide necessary logistical help. In this way, the little girl reached the age of thirteen.
Thirteen years old is an age that many people with wolf nature can't refuse. But Dahan didn't do anything out of the ordinary, and this was not just for the little girl, but for everyone. Gradually, instead of being afraid of the big man, the little girl began to like him.
However, the little girl was forced to witness the big man being burned alive. Because the little girl herself has already eaten a lot of flesh, the little girl feels very incomprehensible about the reason why Viren punished the big man. One more person is one more food. But when a person dies, he can become food. Why did Wei Lun not understand such a simple truth? On the contrary, he still executed the benefactor who had great kindness to him in this way?
"Why did you kill him?" the little girl finally said her first words. And this first sentence is a question.
Viren looked at the motionless little girl, crouched down and asked, "Don't you know why I killed him?" ”
"You say!" the little girl casually dealt with Viren, but her eyes were on the lookout to see if she had the right weapon to avenge her companion.
"What do you think is a human being to you?"
"I don't understand your reasoning!" The little girl said loudly: "My brother once told me that in the last days, any feelings will become a threat to your survival!
"Hey. Viren shook his head and sighed, "Don't you think that brother of yours is not qualified to decide what other humans think?"
"I don't care!" the little girl was a little disappointed, the closest weapon to her was the machete that the big man had left on the ground, but it was also about five or six meters away from her. If she didn't find a way to get Viren's attention, the little girl wouldn't have been able to get her hands on the machete anyway. "What you say is all nonsense, all pre-apocalyptic deception, and what my brother said is the truth and the truth! Useless people should become food in order to give full play to their last use value!"
"You can't be saved. Viren shook his head lightly. "Now, I'm going to kill you. Do you have anything else to say?"
"Hehehe. The little girl laughed, not showing the slightest hint of fear. "I'm not afraid of death. If you want to kill me, I'm not afraid! Even if you want to burn me like you killed my brother, I'm not afraid!"
"I'm sorry. Viren whispered to the little girl, and the ice blade in his hand had already taken shape. "Don't worry, it won't give you any pain. I hope you can live in a wonderful world in the next life. If I can meet you again, I will compensate you. ”
The little girl gave up any resistance and closed her eyes. And Viren's ice blade also gently cut the little girl's neck at this moment. Two or three seconds later, the little girl died without any pain as the ice blade sealed the little girl's blood.
After cleaning up all the bodies, Viren sighed, found the exit to this secret base, and left. Later, Viren took one last look at this secret location hidden deep in the mountains, and burned it clean with a fire.
