57 Chapter 57
The battle continued, and even became more and more intense, and these mutant birds seemed to be endless, and they could not be killed no matter how they were killed. The command tower where Chen Rui was located was completely surrounded by mutant birds, layer after layer, densely covered, and even the sunlight could not penetrate a bit.
The abilities and physical strength of many of the strangers are almost consumed, Chen Rui's eyes narrowed, and his vision was completely covered by the mutant birds, except for the screams of the strangers when they were injured, a few sounds could be heard in the base, and the others were all the sharp chirpings of the mutant birds, which were completely compared with the noise of the processing plant, and the ears could be noisy and painful.
Countless sand rose from the ground, like a dragon leaping and tumbling, where the huge saloon passed, countless mutant birds died in the wail, but in just five or six minutes, the sky above the base became a forbidden area for flying, all mutant birds understood that this was a forbidden area, and they couldn't enter here, otherwise they would be killed by those fine sands.
The moment the mutant bird above the base was emptied, Chen Rui turned his head and said quickly: "Inform me, let all the abilities, no matter how strong or weak, but still be able to breathe, all of them will go to the parking lot below to take refuge." If they don't go to the underground parking lot to avoid the conceit of life and death, I, the city lord, will not be doing them the slightest favor, and I can't last long with such a large sand formation, and it will be over in five minutes. ”
Just when all the strangers cheered, thinking that the mutant bird had been expelled, the radio in the base sounded again, and this time the strangers who stayed outside heard the broadcast, no matter how strong they were, they quickly packed up the loot with the team, and retreated to the parking garage under the base, where is the safest place in the base.
Half an hour of high-intensity, non-stop combat is also quite exhausting for these abilities, and they can only continue to fight after they have enough rest to replenish their abilities. Last time the zombies attacked the city, in addition to the weekend ability problems, there were also a few problems, that is, they were too ruthless in battle, but they just dropped the ability level, as long as they slowly cultivated back, so this time no one stupidly continued to overdraft their abilities.
Chen Rui looked outside the base, the black and oppressive mutant birds blocked the sky, and only the faint sunlight could shine in through the gaps, and the base was full of bird feces at this time, mixed with the smell of blood, which was very unpleasant. Fortunately, after the end of the world, everyone's endurance has increased a lot, and on the weekend, he covered his nose and followed Chen Rui obediently down the conning tower, and the soldiers on the conning tower also followed Chen Rui down.
The sand wrapped around the perimeter of the base gradually thinned, and many teams of Adepts quickly drilled into the passage guarded by the soldiers on the side, and the mutant birds that fell from the ground inside the base were also quickly collected by the soldiers. When the sand was thin to a certain extent, all the personnel in the base entered the underground parking lot to take refuge, the underground parking lot was about three meters above the ground, and all the passages were blocked except for a few vents reserved by Chen Rui.
This time, the attack of the mutant bird flock was very fierce, when the sand wall was thin to only half a meter, those mutant birds guarding outside could no longer bear it, they flew towards the sky, and then swooped into the base like sharp arrows, the smell of blood emitted from the base lured all the mutant birds, they were hungry, they needed food they had to evolve......
Chen Rui stood at the exit of the parking garage at the bottom, followed by a lot of abilities, these are relatively strong abilities, basically all of them are level three or four, and they still have some combat effectiveness at this time. If they all hid in the safety of the parking garage, wouldn't they have wasted this good opportunity, danger and opportunity coexist.
Chen Rui listened to their opinions, the mutant bird was only the size of a fist when it first attacked the base, and now it has a wingspan of five or six meters, and the attack power is amazing, once this kind of large mutant bird appears, it is basically killed by Chen Rui as soon as possible, so Chen Rui is still hesitating to let people out to fight, that kind of big mutant bird is too dangerous.
The weekend on the side also spoke at this time, these mutant birds are very ferocious, but whether it is meat or crystal nucleus, they are good things, and they are the most needed things inside the base at the moment. And they can open more than a dozen rooms, and each room will be handed over to two or three people with relatively strong abilities, so that the president in danger is also on the side, and he can be rescued in time.
In the end, Chen Rui thought about it, his gravity field was limited in time and area, and he had to control the entire base on the conning tower, so he felt a little overwhelmed. But now that the survivors are all in the parking garage below, he doesn't need to worry about this part, and now he can control the distance of a few hundred meters around him wholeheartedly, which is still relatively easy.
So soon dozens of rooms were established in front of this only empty entrance, each room passage is particularly long, at least ten meters, the interior of the room is not very spacious, and the walls and roof are concave and convex, the entrance and exit are only one meter five high, half a meter wide, all of which restrict the entry and exit of large mutant birds, so that the ability to fight will be safer.
There were more than a dozen such rooms occupied by the military, all of which were replaced by the special warriors who had maintained a continuous operation in the base just now, and the other group had all gone to rest and adjust. Chen Rui also occupied one with the weekend, their territory was in the outermost periphery, and the mutant birds were even more powerful.
The mutant bird, with a wingspan of at least four meters, drilled in through the entrance, and the crossbow arrow in Zhouzhou's hand immediately shot out, but the arrow that flew out did not shoot into the mutant bird's eyes as expected, but was blocked by the mutant bird's eyelids, and the arrow finally fell to the ground.
Although the mutant bird was not injured, it was enraged by the weekend, and immediately chirped angrily, and then quickly rushed towards the weekend, even though the mutant bird folded its wings, but spat out a wind blade from its mouth. I was shocked on the weekend, and I didn't have time to dodge, I didn't expect this big mutant bird to have a special ability.
A rock wall appeared in front of the weekend, and a sharp stone thorn ended the mutant bird that was still drilling its head forward, Chen Rui stretched out his hand and pulled the young man in front of him and said: "The mutant bird is getting stronger and stronger over the weekend, it should be moving to the back, you stay behind me, I will kill a few more big ones for you, and the taste of roasting should not be too bad." ”
At this time on the weekend, he also understood that these mutant birds were really not something he could deal with, and he couldn't even shoot arrows, and he still had a yarn. Reaching out and rubbing the trembling hairball that had been staying in his arms, Zhou Zhou nodded and said, "Brother Chen, you play more, is our family's crystal nucleus not enough." ”
"Well, I've been using it a little too much lately, but this time the gain won't be too small," Chen Rui nodded, the young man was staying behind him, very safe and well-behaved, he could finally fight with peace of mind. Then Chen Rui began to fight seriously, he walked directly out of the protected stone house, the five-meter gravity field range, no matter whether it was a big or small mutant bird, as long as it dared to rush over, it was basically all killed by Chen Rui.
The corpses of mutant birds continue to accumulate, some of them will be put away by Chen Rui if they look fat, and some of them will be dug up by Chen Rui to remove the crystal nucleus, these mutant birds will eat everything, whether it is a human or a mutant animal, even if it is the same kind.
I don't know how long it has been, the sun is shining down little by little, and suddenly there is a loud eagle cry over the base, the sound directly penetrates the ground, and goes straight to the inside of the parking lot, many people are taken aback, the coercion of the high-level mutant beast makes many people feel unwell, many children cry for no reason, the old man is out of breath, and the survivors who have been in a bad mood suddenly appeared a lot of noise.
Chen Rui's eyes darkened, and he immediately knew that this mutant eagle was at least the same level as the mutant green cow, maybe it was the leader of this group of mutant birds, as long as this mutant bird was removed, this mutant bird crisis could be resolved.
Between the huge eagle wings, a lightning bolt suddenly fell, and even Chen Rui was taken aback, but fortunately, he reacted very quickly, when the lightning fell, a tumble, where he stood, a stone pillar four or five meters high and a wire directly poured electricity into the ground, even so Chen Rui felt numb, if it was implemented just now, it would be half-cooked if it was not baked. At this time, Chen Rui also became cautious, the healing abilities on the weekend were gone, and the healing abilities were almost exhausted now, so Chen Rui didn't want to be left behind.
Chen Rui dodged again and again, and passed by death several times, just to lure this mutant eagle king who was at least level five down, as long as the mutant eagle king was flying forty or fifty meters down, Chen Rui would be able to kill with one blow. In the face of such a ferocious mutant beast, Chen Rui was very careful, and he would never use a killing move until he was sure of a kill.
One lightning after another was avoided by Chen Rui, and the Mutant Eagle King lowered again, and then was taken away a few feathers by Chen Rui's counterattack sandstorm, watching the feathers on his head taken away by the sandstorm, the Mutant Eagle King was furious, and he screamed in anger, which caused a burst of intimidation from the crowd hiding under the base, all because the voice of the Mutant Eagle King was sharp, and it was already within the range of the sonic attack.
Chen Rui looked at the Mutant Eagle King who was swooping towards him quickly, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and he was close, when the Mutant Eagle King approached Chen Rui for more than 20 meters, Chen Rui's gravity field suddenly turned on, and the wings of the Mutant Eagle King suddenly froze, and he didn't have time to react at all, and quickly fell to the ground. A sharp stone pillar at a distance of ten meters was just waiting under the belly of the Mutant Eagle King, and with a "poof", the stone blade instantly penetrated the belly of the Mutant Eagle King under the action of the Mutant Eagle King and the gravity field.
Weekend, who was hiding in the stone house, watched the Mutant Eagle King being killed, and immediately poked his head out and shouted, "Brother Chen, you are so powerful. ”
"Hurry ......up" Chen Rui's words had not yet been spoken, a stone wall had not yet been erected in front of the weekend, and the mutant eagle king turned his head and a bolt of lightning still clamored for the weekend to slash over, not giving Chen Rui and the weekend time to react at all.
"Weekend," Chen Rui shouted in horror, a stone ball smashed directly on the head of the mutant eagle king, and the head of the mutant eagle king was shattered in an instant, and the brain was splashed, and even the crystal nucleus rolled to the ground, Chen Rui had no intention of cleaning up any mutant crystal nucleus, and the young man was hit by a lightning bolt of at least tens of thousands of volts in front of him, and the possibility of survival was too slim.
Rushing to the stone house, Chen Rui trembled and reached out to hug the young man, hugged the young man tightly into his arms, and said cautiously: "How are you on the weekend, how are you on the weekend, say something, don't scare me......"
"Whew, cough cough, Brother Chen, let go, I'm about to be strangled by you, I wasn't killed by thunder, I was almost suffocated to death by you, that's too far." Weekend spit out a puff of black smoke in his mouth, and said weakly, being hugged by the president was too tight, and it was difficult for his body to even move.
Chen Rui was very unbelievable after hearing the young man's words, but he was very happy, he was really happy, the weekend was fine, it was okay, it was okay, it was okay. Looking down at the young man in his arms, his face was scorched, his hair stood on end and burned most of it, and the rest also exuded a scorched smell.
Stretched out his hand and wiped the young man's cheek, and suddenly the young man's face turned into a flower cat, black and white, erasing the blackened part, the young man's face was good, there was no scar at all.
"Is it really okay? Do you want to find a healer? Chen Rui asked worriedly.
Zhou Zhou shook his head and said: "I'll be fine if you let go, Brother Chen quickly put away the mutant eagle king, don't let those mutant birds eat it, it's too wasteful, and the crystal nucleus, if I recover the ability, I can use it." "Weekend screamed when he saw the corpse of the Mutant Eagle King being pecked by other mutant birds, and it felt like he was going to take half of his life.
Chen Rui looked at the young man's painful look, and suddenly had a smile on his face, looking at the young man's energetic appearance, there should be nothing wrong with his body. Just struggling to stand up on the weekend, Chen Rui looked at the young man's staggering and unstable appearance now, and naturally felt uneasy, but looking at the young man's distressed look, the mutant eagle king and its crystal nucleus were naturally immediately included in the space.
"Okay, don't be reckless, I'll take you back to rest, after this Eagle King was killed by me, the mutant birds around the base have begun to disperse, this time the mutant bird migration should have passed, and it stands to reason that there shouldn't be any big danger." Chen Rui opened his mouth to reassure the young man.
"Brother Chen, don't patronize me, look at my pockets, the hairball doesn't seem to have moved, it can't be that he was electrocuted." On the weekend, leaning on the president's hand, he stretched out his hand and said anxiously, although he could speak with his mouth, but his body was still numb by electricity, and he had no strength in his hands and feet, and he couldn't even raise his hand.
When Chen Rui heard the words of the weekend, he put his hand into the young man's coat pocket and grabbed the motionless four feet and spread out the tough hairball. Weekend looked at the blackened hairball in the president's hand, and suddenly his eyes darkened, and tears fell: "Dead, how can the hairball die, how can it die, obviously it has been with me for three years in my last life, a whole three years, this time in less than three months, it died, how could it die like this......" Weekend buried his face in Chen Rui's chest and cried, and his collapsed sanity was completely gone.
Chen Rui listened silently, he had long felt that something was wrong with the youth, such as hoarding food, for example, Zhou Tan once said that he bought a lot of toiletries on the weekend to give away, in fact, they should all be stored in the space by the youth, because he saw a lot in the jade pendant space, and now there are still a lot in his space, if the youth is really reborn after death, then everything is explained, three years after the end of the world, it means that the young man lived in the last days for three years before dying.
Chen Rui hugged the young man tightly and comforted him silently, and suddenly he felt the small thing in the palm of his hand twitch, Chen Rui immediately patted the young man's waist with his hand around the young man's waist and said: "Don't cry on the weekend, I see that it seems to be moving, is it not dead yet, you hurry up and take a look, maybe there will be salvation."
Although holding the young man made Chen Rui feel at ease, and he had all kinds of dissatisfaction with the pig in his hand, but the young man cried so miserably, Chen Rui was really distressed. I definitely didn't stay with him on the weekends of my last life, and my strength was not too strong, I don't know how much he suffered in the last days, how many times he starved, in order to develop such a protective behavior in his life. Thinking of this, thinking that he failed to protect the youth in his previous life, Chen Rui felt distressed.
After hearing Chen Rui's words, he immediately looked up at the president's hand, he trembled and stretched out his weak hand to touch the hairball, and then as if he remembered something, his fingers pressed on the hairball's chest and probed, when he felt that the hairball's little heart was beating quickly and powerfully, the weekend laughed, he hugged the president tightly and said loudly: "Alive, still alive, great, I know that the hairball is reluctant to leave me, how can it be willing to leave me alone......"
After a full two minutes, the weekend calmed down, and at this time, the weekend's strength finally recovered a little, he pushed away the president who was still holding him, and looked up with some distress and asked, "Brother Chen, did I say something that shouldn't have been said just now......
"No, I heard you crying sadly just now, I didn't hear what you were talking about at all," Chen Rui said with a worried look on the young man's face, looking at the young man with a relieved sigh of relief, as long as the young man refused to tell him, Chen Rui would not explore, the young man in his previous life may have had a very difficult time, in this life Chen Rui swore that he would take good care of the young man and would not let the young man suffer a little. As for the fact that young people are asking for their own hardships, Chen Rui looked at the scorched black of the young man's head, and finally he gave up exploring, and he would not let the young man have a chance to happen in the future.
The two sat and rested in front of the stone house, leaning on the president on the weekend, holding his baby pig in his hand, touching and poking it from time to time, hoping that the fainted pig would come over quickly.
"Oh my God, you two still have the leisure to sit here and chat, we're all about to fry over there, do you know?" Zhang Chi ran over and saw the two people leaning together and talking about love, and immediately said like a cannon.
Chen Rui glanced back at the people who disturbed him and the weekend rest, although he didn't mind helping the survivors in the base to tide over the difficulties, but for other things, especially those things in the base that were fighting for power and profit, Chen Rui didn't want to think about it at all, ninety-nine percent of his thoughts were used on the youth.
"Don't bring your little matter to me, and you've solved it, don't block me." Chen Rui didn't even look at Zhang Chi and said, and immediately put Zhang Chi's next words in his mouth, so that he would not vomit or be unhappy.
The three of them walked towards the underground pavilion garage, and looked at Zhang Chi several times along the way, and finally couldn't help but speak: "If you have anything to say, just say it, don't be so uncomfortable to look at." ”
"Brother Xiao Zhou, then I'll say it, don't mention how uncomfortable it is for me just now, city lord, you must know that someone wants to make a blame, right, that's why you sent Yu Meng Shou to the old general's side, if we don't listen to you today, the consequences will be absolutely unimaginable, the old base actually sent a fourth-level shadow ability to assassinate the old general, fortunately, Yu Meng was vigilant and found out in time, the assassin was caught by us......" Zhang Chi immediately said with great interest, what is Yu Meng's great might, and the light system of the ability makes the shadow assassin have nowhere to escape or something.
Chen Rui endured the increasingly chattering mouth, and finally couldn't bear it anymore: "The old general is not injured." ”
Zhang Chi heard the city lord speak, and immediately replied with a smile: "No, no, the general was taken aback, fortunately, Yu Meng was on the side at the time, and a wall of fire immediately forced the shadow assassin back, and the guard who followed the general was a light ability, and the lighting was excellent at night on weekdays, but I didn't expect that this time I actually restrained the shadow assassin, fortunately, I saw that his combat effectiveness was not strong at that time, and arranged for him to serve tea and pour water for the old general......"
I watched it over the weekend and started to talk at length again, basically off-topic and didn't know tens of thousands of miles of relaxation, this guy's mouth is getting more and more, and he is about to evolve towards a long-tongued woman. Fortunately, there is a little more relaxation of the mouth, but the handling of things is still quite neat, so Chen Rui will endure such a small shortcoming, who makes them more familiar!
Coming to the office where the old general was, Chen Rui said as soon as he entered the door: "Old Li, are you okay, do you need to find a doctor to take a look, this time the mutant Eagle King's sonic attack has affected the entire underground parking garage." ”
Seeing the return of the two of them intact, the old general Li Jianguo laughed and said: "Old man, I am in good health, it's okay, you come over quickly, it's not like we stayed down and didn't do anything, if it weren't for the little episode just now, maybe the new base planning has been completed now." Xiao Zhou, you also come here, take a look at our new base plan, the inside of the base is twice as large as the original, the moat is preserved, the escape passage is left under the city wall, and then an underground shelter is built under the four city walls......"
Chen Rui just glanced at the blueprint plan in the old general's hand, and then said: "This drawing is abandoned, the area does not need to be so large, once there is a tide of mutant beasts or zombies, our manpower is simply not enough to guard such a large and area base." I have a plan, let me tell you first, the base is divided into two floors, the upper floor is used for daily life, and the lower floor is used for refuge, and all the free market office halls are built into the lower floor, and the lower floor must also be separated from the underground to prevent the attack of underground mutant insects......"
Chen Rui said a lot, and the last sentence summarized that the old general would design a drawing according to his intentions, and he would build the base according to the drawings, so as to protect the safety of the base to the greatest extent.
I was dumbfounded after listening to Chen Rui's words over the weekend, what kind of base is this, I seem to have heard of it somewhere in my previous life, it is very familiar, it seems that three years after the end of the world, he was killed on the way to that safe base. But this base is obviously not in their Jiangcheng, let alone Ningxiang County, because it was wiped out by the tide of mutant beasts and zombies not long after the end of the world, and it doesn't seem to have lasted more than half a year......
The hairball that had been staying in the palm of the weekend's hand suddenly twitched a little, and then as if it seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, a heel suddenly flipped out, and the weekend hurriedly caught it, afraid that the hairball would fall to death, and he forgot to entangle this base like a certain base in his previous life. 166 Reading Network
