Volume 1 The End of the World Chapter 18 The Survivor's Town
According to the understanding of the three people, this middle-aged man is the deputy mayor of this town, and the town where they live was originally a left-behind town, and the young laborers have gone out to work, leaving only a few thousand old people and children. At the time of the cataclysm, more than half of the town died, and a small half fled, and now there are more than 200 people who survive.
This deputy mayor is also a relatively responsible official, and quickly organized the local police and firefighters to save themselves, but then there was a human mutation incident that caught everyone off guard, but fortunately, the population of this town was not large, and the mutants were relatively few, and the situation was basically controlled under decisive handling. Over the next few days, survivors from other places gradually arrived in the town, and the town was consolidated with the help of everyone, and a certain number of armed men were organized.
Xuanyuan Yi and Zhang Fenghao were temporarily incorporated into the armed patrol because they were soldiers, and Li Yanmu was originally going to stay in the factory as a small helper, but he refused to live or die, so he cried and shouted to stay with Xuanyuan Yi. Everyone was busy, and no one had time to be serious with a child, so I agreed to him.
The town is very small, there are no troops stationed at all, only a police station and an armed police fire brigade. Therefore, there are only two 54 pistols and a few fire axes in total, and the others are either armed with kitchen knives or sickles, and basically cold weapons account for the vast majority. However, there were unexpected surprises, the three of them actually met their former comrade-in-arms Guan Yulin in the patrol team, and he has become the captain of the armed brigade here.
During the conversation, it was learned that Guan Yulin was already in the refugee camp in this town when he woke up, and was found and rescued by the police who were out on patrol. He also awakened his superpowers, possessed the ability of thunder and lightning, and then he helped the people of the town to clear out the absolute part of the mutants in the vicinity, so that he had the temporary peace he has now.
Xuanyuanyi, Zhang Fenghao, Li Yanmu, and Guan Yulin lit a bonfire in a two-story building in the town, on which four potatoes were roasted, and gradually the room began to have a little unique fragrance of baked potatoes, which was the ration of the four people today. Xuanyuan Yi stared at the bonfire and took the lead in breaking the silence in the room: "What should we do next? You can't stay in this town all the time, right?" Li Yanmu just looked up at Xuanyuan when he heard this, and Zhang Fenghao looked at Guan Yulin.
Guan Yulin picked up a branch and replied: "There are only 200 people in this town who have survived, and there are more than 40 children alone. If we leave, the people of this town will not survive. Zhang Fenghao sighed lightly and said, "Are those monsters really so terrifying?"
Guan Yulin took off a baked potato, skewered it with a shaved branch, and handed it to Li Yanmu, who took it with a smile. Only then did Guan Yulin speak: "When I woke up, the town's electricity supply was normal, and the computers of the official department could also access the Internet. At that time, I looked up some information on the Internet. Speaking of this, Guan Yulin paused for a moment and took a deep breath before continuing: "This cataclysm is global in nature, and the virus in the other space spreads through the kind of crack we saw last time in the base, and in less than a day, all the humans around the world were infected. Some groups with poor immunity immediately mutated into the monsters we have seen, they have no human emotions and intelligence, and only the most basic habits of beasts remain. ”
Xuanyuan Yi also picked up a potato at this time and handed it to Guan Yulin, but Guan Yulin didn't take it, Xuanyuan saw this and handed it to Zhang Fenghao, and Zhang Fenghao took it unceremoniously. Xuanyuan Yi opened his mouth at this time and asked, "I found that the blood of those monsters is no longer normal red, it seems to be green, is this all caused by a virus infection? and their appearance, they don't look like humans at all." Guan Yulin nodded and said: "This is all caused by virus infection, and these viruses are still evolving all the time, some biological experts say that these monsters will become more and more ferocious in the future, and they just regard humans as their food." ”
Zhang Fenghao interjected at this time and said: "Then what is the matter with our superpowers?" Guan Yulin replied: "Some experts have also given an explanation, it should be the other extreme mutation of the alien space virus in the human body. Some people with special constitutions in humans have mutated and reorganized their DNA sequence codes after being infected with the virus, resulting in a very small number of human beings having superpowers. Now all countries are urgently recruiting superpowers to join their armies to defend against cataclysm. ”
Xuanyuan Yi skewered the last two potatoes with a branch, handed one to Guan Yulin, kept one for himself, and said while eating: "Then we were specially recruited before the army should have been selected by the state before the catastrophe, and we should all have super energy on us, and we should be recruited in advance to better deal with the catastrophe." Zhang Fenghao nodded very much and said: "Your thoughts are basically the same as mine, and I also think that our enlistment should be an early response by the state, but I don't know why, there is something wrong with us, so ......"
Guan Yulin took a bite of the potato and said slowly: "Feng Hao is right, there are 108 rift points in different spaces around the world, and 107 of them have only spread the virus outward, but the crack point we are in has a gasp situation. Xuanyuan Yi sighed lightly and said, "This is really unlucky! Such a small chance can be caught up by the brothers! By the way, what about the others? Do you have a clue?" Guan Yulin slowly shook his head and said: "No." Our kind of troops belong to the state secret level, and there are no clues to be found on the Internet. Zhang Fenghao interjected and asked, "What about the situation in other cities?"
A deep sadness appeared on Guan Yulin's face, and he spoke after a while: "It's basically all over, the bigger the city, the more mutants, and these big cities have become forbidden areas for life at this time." Xuanyuan Yi swallowed the last bite of potatoes and asked, "What's the matter with those plants that grow in the city?Can trees be planted on the concrete ground?" Guan Yulin shook his head and said: "I didn't find any clues on this Internet, I only know that these plants also appeared with mutant humans, and they should also be infected by the virus in another space." But these plants aren't vegetarians, they eat people!"
Xuanyuanyi, Zhang Fenghao, and Li Yanmu were all shocked when they heard this, and Li Yanmu was so shocked that even the potatoes in his mouth fell to the ground. Guan Yulin nodded seriously at the three of them and continued: "These plants began to appear all over the earth one after another on the day of the catastrophe, and the denser the population, the higher the density of mutated vegetation. Their roots can move like snakes, and after grabbing people, they will be wrapped to death, and then many smaller roots will be secreted from the rhizome, and these roots will be wrapped in layers of the captured person, forming a cocoon, and then the people inside will slowly become the growth nutrients of the mutated plant. ”
When Xuanyuan Yi and Zhang Fenghao heard the wood cocoon, they couldn't help but think of the wood cocoon found in the mutant tree in the supermarket in DL City before, which turned out to be wrapped in people! The two couldn't help but glance at each other when they thought of this, and their faces were full of embarrassment.
Xuanyuan Yi took a few water cups, poured water into each cup with his superpowers, and then handed them to everyone in turn. At this time, Guan Yulin's voice spoke again: "By the way, after talking so much, I forgot to ask you, have you any changes in your body? You should all have super powers, right?" Xuanyuan Yi and Li Yanmu immediately lowered their heads and drank water when they heard this, while Zhang Fenghao smiled and said, "Yes, there have been some changes." Like me, I can feel the flow of air around me and control it, and I should have the ability to control the wind. It can speed up, it can attack, and it's still very practical. ”
Guan Yulin was overjoyed when he heard this: "Oh, this ability is very good, there is also a super person in the town who can control the wind, I have seen it, this is a good ability to play support." When Zhang Fenghao heard this, he immediately had a look of displeasure on his face, and he said lightly: "Just to help?" After that, Zhang Fenghao's right index finger and middle finger were together, and they were gently hooked. I saw a strong wind rubbing the corners of Guan Yulin's clothes, and the corners of his clothes were cut off instantly, and at the same time, I heard a clattering sound on the wall behind him, and then two dents of about five centimeters appeared on the cement wall. Guan Yulin is also a clear-eyed person, and when he turns his head and looks at the dent caused by the wind blade, he understands everything.
Guan Yulin gave Zhang Fenghao a thumbs up and said, "High! It's really high! That kid in the town can't compare with you at all, you two are not on the same level." Zhang Fenghao smiled modestly and said: "Low-key, low-key, they young people still have room for improvement." Guan Yulin laughed and patted Zhang Fenghao's shoulder without answering.
At this time, Xuanyuan Yi suddenly got up and quietly walked out of the room, but Guan Yulin happened to see it, so he looked up and asked, "Xuanyuan, where are you going? What is your super power?" Zhang Fenghao immediately drank the water in the cup in one gulp, and then handed it to Xuanyuan Yi and said, "Another cup." Xuanyuan Yi immediately had a bunch of black lines on his face, and he cursed Zhang Fenghao secretly dozens of times in his heart, but he still raised his right index finger and fired a clear stream at the cup. After a while, the cup was full, Xuanyuan Yi lowered his head and said with a dark face: "You talk slowly, I'll go and make it convenient." ”
Guan Yulin was dumbfounded, blinked his eyes and asked in a daze, "What is this?" Zhang Fenghao took a sip of the water in the cup and said, "Xuanyuan Mountain Spring, it's a little sweet." Otherwise, where do you think the water in your cup came from? Did you see someone bring in pure water?" Guan Yulin looked suddenly enlightened, but he still didn't understand what Xuanyuan's super power was for. Later, Zhang Fenghao quietly explained to him, and Guan Yulin finally laughed.
At this time, Li Yanmu suddenly stood up and said, "You guys talk slowly, and I'll go out for a while." After saying that, he ran out of the door. Li Yanmu walked to Xuanyuan Yi's side, and the two of them looked up at the gray sky together, both of them looking thoughtful. At this time, there was a sudden burst of fierce laughter in the house, so Xuanyuan Yi and Li Yanmu tacitly understood at the same time, and then said in unison: "Shameless!" The two blew a cold wind outside, and waited for no laughter in the house before slowly returning to the house.
