CHAPTER XXXI
[Yucheng: So is this a routine for the weak to get the strength of the salted fish to turn over? 】
[Cocoon: Not sure, and I haven't turned over.] 】
[Tamaki: You can try to ask if there are any other berserkers at that school, and then investigate what they have in common. 】
[Cocoon: Got it.] 】
[Cocoon: These kids call berserkers "infected.] 】
[Cocoon: How's your progress going?] 】
[Yucheng: I just got the investigation report of the green crystal, in addition to the volume exposed to the ground, there is also a part of the ground that is about ten meters deep...... Direct blasting is afraid that it will affect the surrounding infrastructure, so for now, it is probably necessary to clean up the exposed ground first, which may be able to alleviate the deepening of the crisis we are facing...... From twelve o'clock, you should be able to hear the movement by then, after all, it is not very far. 】
[Fushen: How to clean it up? 】
[Jade City: □□, directional blasting. 】
【Cocos God: ......】
[Yucheng: What? 】
[God: Nothing, what about Enochie?] 】
[Yucheng: Next to me, he was also asking me how you are doing just now, and the brothers really have a good heart! I'll just say that there is no overnight feud, do you want to say hello? 】
[Fushen: Excuse me, I'll go to the restaurant at lunchtime. 】
As if he was afraid of the other side to continue to persuade something, the cocoon god put the mobile phone in his pocket with some ostrich behavior, raised his head and saw the little fat who was walking towards him with a worried face from a distance, and the cocoon beckoned, he didn't seem to see it, and the whole person looked absent-minded.
The young man sighed, and had to take the initiative to walk up to the little fat and block his way—a man suddenly appeared in front of him, the latter was obviously startled, and took a big step back, and he was relieved when he saw the person standing in front of him: "Don't you suddenly come out...... Scared people to death! ”
"I've called you so much," Cocoon put his hand into his pocket, "how is that Diana?" ”
"Hiding in the women's bathroom, and then being called out by a teacher to give a lecture, it's always wrong to hurt people no matter what—and I can see that these adults have developed resistance and fear of this ability in students, tsk, these adults are really ......."
"That's right."
"What?" Chubby was stunned.
"Isn't it human nature to be afraid in the face of unknown and uncontrollable forces? The berserkers are not the same as you sling, and if you have to use a metaphor, you are the equivalent of a god-given army, a true warrior - what are these berserkers? No one knows why they suddenly have power, and no one knows if this power can be controlled...... Isn't it right to be wary of them? ”
"But isn't it just that the government sent us to accomplish this, which means that these children can still be used by the people, and maybe they can become as useful as the -i soldiers in the future...... God, you're in such a hurry to make up your mind, right? ”
“……”
Fatty's words fell, and suddenly saw the cocoon god walking in front of him stop, as if he realized that something was wrong he shut his mouth suddenly, but at this time it was too late, cocoon god had already turned around: "Chubby, why have you been talking for Berserker?" ”
"W-What?"
"I've been asking you something for a long time, you probably didn't know that you are not the same as the Ing soldier in some of the characteristics, but rather the characteristics of the Berserker - the inheritance of strength, the intake of energy...... Again, are you sure you're ING and not a berserker? ”
In the question of the god of cocoon, the little fat suddenly blushed, he stared at the god as if he had seen a ghost, as if he heard him say something earth-shattering crazy - the fat man's small eyes rolled in the sockets, and it took a long time to hold back a sentence: "When, of course not!" What are you talking about! Didn't you see the runes on my body too?! Why do you still have such doubts?! ”
After Fatty finished yelling, he suddenly noticed that there was some quiet around him, and when he looked around, he found that almost everyone's attention in the corridor was attracted - fortunately, Fatty yelled Chinese no one could understand...... And from beginning to end, as the object of his yelling, the cocoon god always looked calm, and those black eyes turned around on Xiao Fat's face in an undisturbing way, and after a pause, he said lightly: "I just asked casually, no, no, what are you so excited about?" ”
The blood on the little fat face dropped slightly: "Because your appearance Xiàn gives people the impression that berserker is very bad, so your subconscious opinion of the two super soldiers has been deviated by you......"
"Oh."
"The berserkers are our peers anyway, I don't think there's the need for that-"
However, in this world, high school students who can throw their classmates directly out of the air a few meters away with their bare hands and fall directly into the comics will probably only appear in the comics, and maybe they are villains...... Fu Shen muttered in his heart, but he didn't say it to refute Chubby: After all, he was still an adult inside, and he didn't enjoy campus life and classmates in high school except for studying, so he ...... What if Chubby's appearance like this is human nature?
Hmmmm;.
For things he doesn't understand, Chu Mobai is habitually silent and very receptive, he is such a casual person.
"Where did Diana go after that?"
"The cafeteria, after being lectured, I left the faculty office and couldn't wait to run to the cafeteria, as if I was hungry...... Ahh ”
"There's definitely meat, but a bloody steak like yours that's barely half cooked is still free."
In the middle of the conversation between the cocoon god and the little fatty, the two had already arrived at the restaurant, and when they stepped into the restaurant, the cocoon god took out the sapphire necklace and glanced at it, which showed that the time was half past eleven o'clock in the afternoon—about half an hour before the green crystal was destroyed.
"Did you say there would be meat for us at lunch?" The little fat who walked in front was still full of anticipation.
"Just ask the same question once." Leaning over and helplessly, "And I don't know the answer." ”
At this time, the student cafeteria was crowded with people, and Fu Shen took a look, and then at a glance, he could distinguish a few so-called "infected people" from those ordinary students, not because of how keen his observation was, but because the mountains of food in front of them made it difficult not to notice.
Looking at it, the cocoon god almost immediately gave up the idea of "maybe the berserkers are some specific disadvantaged groups", because some of them seem to be confident scholars, some seem to be local tyrants shouting to invite all their friends to dinner, and some seem to be the core "core" of the entire circle of friends......
Of course, there are a few people who feel very similar to Diana.
So, there is no specific group of people for the creation of berserkers?
Puzzled, he looked around, and then he found Diana in a corner, and in front of her lay five loaves of bread and a large plate of pasta, chips, and drinks, which were piled up, and she was still with her head down, her hair covering her face, and she was quickly shoving the noodles into her mouth...... Tomato juice dripping on her collar and she didn't even notice it—
Not far from her, her classmates were watching her and talking, and one of the boys picking up a fork and deliberately mimicking her eating caused a smirk, and Joan sat in the middle of them, unexpectedly not joining the laughing procession, but eating the food on her plate with a blank face.
"There are a lot of infected people in this school," Chubby said after looking around, "at least I've counted a dozen suspicious people at the moment, and this is just in the cafeteria...... Is it because of the proximity to the green crystal? ”
"I don't know." The god replied as he watched Chubby put a third loaf of bread on his plate.
"What?" As if noticing the strange gaze of the gods, Fat put the fourth loaf of bread on the plate and stopped eating, "Probably because the energy consumption is relatively fast after having a new body, I am very hungry lately - besides, I am already fat, and I used to eat three loaves of bread to be full!" I bet that super soldier, well, our bodyguard, might swallow a cow in one meal! ”
“…… The super soldiers of the ING series do not need to eat. ”
Chubby was stunned.
"Their bodies have been vegetatively preserved by their ability to photosynthesize, so they only need light to stay alive – not only that, but before that, they would have eliminated food from their stomachs, which is now just a bit of a superfluous body organ for them."
Chubby's eyes widened slightly, revealing a hint of uneasiness: "Then I am—"
"Don't worry, although I don't know what's going on, but you can eat if you want, you see that although Enoch doesn't have to eat, he hasn't succeeded in evolving into ing, so there are a lot of strange things."
"Why didn't you tell me in advance?"
"Sue you, can you still do the same without eating?"
Fu Shen said casually, and he didn't know if it had appeased Xiao Chubby, but from his frowning eyebrows, it didn't seem to have much effect.
The two of them found a corner table and sat down, and the cocoon was about to take out his necklace to check the time, when he found that there was a clock hanging on many of his walls.
Eleven fifty a.m.
There are still ten minutes left until the crystal blast.
At this moment, a group of girls walked in from outside the dining room - the cocoon recognized them at a glance as the people who had surrounded Diana and verbally humiliated her, and now they seemed to have just come out of the shadow of Diana's hurtful gesture before, pushing and laughing at each other...... As they passed Diana's table, the girl sitting at the table nervously grabbed a loaf of bread and stuffed it into her mouth in an attempt to distract herself, and the men walked past her as if they didn't see her, without looking back.
When the god thought that the girls had finally learned a lesson from their companions' injuries, it turned out that he wanted to overestimate the intelligence of these people once again.
After receiving the food, the girls turned around and went to Diana without hesitation, the girl at the head was probably the best relationship with the one who was thrown out and injured, and when Diana was watered on her head in the classroom, she laughed loudest, and let out a pompous and piercing scream.
At this time, under the gaze of the cocoon god, she led the group of girls to Diana, stood firm, and then directly buckled a whole plate of pasta on the dinner plate on the girl's head at a speed that no one expected!
The restaurant, which had been quite lively, suddenly fell silent.
Everyone turned their heads to look at this side.
Diana lowered her head for a long time, and then she raised her trembling hand, grabbed a lump of dough in her hair, and pulled it off—the tomato juice flowed from between her fingers, in a striking contrast to the pale hand......
"You should be responsible for your actions, Diana, this is not a problem that the teacher can solve with just a few words from you! Poor Shirley, who is still lying in the infirmary, has just woken up from a coma, and says she is in pain all over......"
The girl slammed the plate down in front of Diana, and the juice splattered out and splashed on Diana's face, and she shivered slightly.
"You monster!" The girl's voice was sharp, revealing anger and harshness, "Being infected doesn't mean that you can hurt people at will, you think everyone should be afraid of you, right?!" ”
As she spoke, she reached out and grabbed Diana by the hair and dragged her back—the latter was caught off guard and dragged to the ground, and with a loud "bang" she flipped back with the plate, and she let out a low cry of pain, and curled up as if she had fallen!
"Monster!"
The girl stomped her lower abdomen.
"Monster!"
The other girl also poured her plate of food on her thighs, which were exposed under her lifted skirt.
"Monster!"
"Monster!"
"Disgusting monster!" "The Wounder!" "There shouldn't be zài! Get out of here! ”
The surrounding voices began to get louder and louder, and strangely no one tried to help this girl, and the cocoon looked around, and most of the other people who were also "infected" were numb and indifferent in their eyes, just like at this moment, the words that the people around them were clapping and screaming were not aimed at them, but just Diana......
Joan stood up, only to be pulled back into his seat by the boy closest to him.
Only the little fat beside the god stood up with a pale face......
However, it was too late.
The next qiē seemed to be released only for a moment - when the clock, minute, hour, and second hands on the wall overlapped at twelve o'clock at the same time, and I don't know where it sounded, and the "bell" of the bell struck with a loud bang!
Immediately afterwards, there was a loud "boom" from outside the restaurant, a green light seemed to light up from a long distance, illuminating the sky that had been dark for several days as if it were day, the light spread rapidly, and the cocoon god only had time to shout "lie down", but at this time the people in the restaurant did not have time to react, when the light spread, the powerful shock wave smashed the glass of the restaurant, the wind howled in, the cocoon god lay on the ground, and his ears heard again what he heard in the open space of the military base-
The sound of soldiers colliding and horses galloping.
His eyes widened slightly, but before he could figure out what was going on, the green light had quickly disappeared, and in the chaotic screams, he got up, looked around, took out his mobile phone, and was about to call immediately to ask what was going on in Yucheng-
However, at this moment, he heard a rough gasp ringing in his ears.
Similar to the low roar of a beast, with the sound of tracheal wheezing, it was hoarse, low, and full of danger!
At this time, the students who had been hiding under the tables stood up one after another, they looked around in dazed and frightened trying to figure out what was happening, some said they were going to find the teacher, some were in a hurry to leave the cafeteria, and in the chaos, they suddenly heard a boy's voice in the corner calling "Diana!" Then a high-pitched, frightened female scream rang out—
I saw that the girl who was still huddled on the ground as if she was vulnerable instantly got up at a speed that was by no means normal human, and the sound that the cocoon god heard when she was threatened came from her mouth, she arched her back, and then a flying pounce knocked the girl who had bullied her to the ground, when the latter screamed and struggled desperately, Diana seemed to release infinite power, she firmly pressed the girl to the ground, and then lowered her head, aimed at her neck exposed in front of her eyes, and bit down-
Before they had time to react to what was happening, they only heard a muffled sound of flesh and skin tearing!
The girl's screams were gone, replaced by the sound of blood splattering from the arteries, blood splattering onto Diana's face, mixing with the ketchup on her body to form a strange color-
With a piece of meat in her mouth, she staggered up from the girl, and didn't look at her classmates who were limp on the ground, twitching wildly from rapid blood loss...... Diana raised her hand and lifted her own strands of hair, which had become sticky with blood, so that those around her could see her green eyes.
Like wolves waiting to hunt in the night.
"Why ......"
A hoarse voice rang out.
"Why, bother me, eat."
Meat was held in her mouth, and she seemed to hesitate for three seconds, but finally seemed to be unable to resist the hunger and swallowed the piece of meat.
For two seconds, the dead silence of the restaurant could only hear the creepy sound of "crunch" fleshy fibers being chewed.
Then there was a "grunt", and Diana said that the mouthful of human flesh was swallowed.
When the girl who was lying in a pool of blood stopped her convulsions, a pair of eyes that had lost their luster froze at the last second of horror and looked at the ceiling and swallowed her last breath completely...... The crowd who had fallen into a dead silence because of shock did not know who let out a sobbing and screamed, "She's eating people", and the crowd began to retreat frantically!
"I'm so hungry, I'm so hungry, I'm so hungry."
Diana raised her bloodied hand towards the student closest to her, and as she staggered towards him, the boy shook his head and screamed frantically as if he had taken root, but his feet were fixed to the ground as if they had taken root.
So he quickly became the next victim.
When he also collapsed in a pool of blood, the shocking red color scared most of the students' sanity out of the sky - the main entrance of the cafeteria was behind Diana, and they didn't dare cross her, so they swarmed to the only emergency safe passage behind them, trying to escape from there......
"Locked!"
A desperate voice shouted, and the students realized that the safe passage that was usually open today was locked for some reason, and they were pushing the door frantically, and the unsuspecting people behind were still desperately squeezing, some people were pushed and made a suffocating sound, and some people began to vomit because they were too panicked and pushed......
Until they found out that people in the crowd also began to fall one after another.
Panicked, they broke down and began to look for the reason.
Eventually, they found that it wasn't just Diana who was attacking, but all the "infected" who had been envied before, and their eyes were flashing with the same green light, and they were swept up in the crowd and began to attack anyone around them who could reach them.
"Don't, don't, don't!!"
"Help! Who's going to save me!! ”
"Let go of me, let go of me, don't eat me! Mommy, Dad! Let me go home, ahh
The cries filled the entire restaurant in an instant, and soon the floor was almost covered with blood and bloody footprints, and beyond that, the mutilated limbs of human beings......
When everyone was desperate to think that they were about to be confessed here, at this time, a tall black shadow suddenly broke in from the window - the black shadow landed on the floor of the restaurant at the same time, and kicked an infected person who was desperately tearing a boy's arm and trying to drag it off alive, and the infected person flew out about seven or eight meters, and then crashed into a certain dining table, and the metal dining table was completely dented by a large piece!
The man stood up, the smoke and sparks in the corner of his lips lit up, looking at the miserable situation in the restaurant at this time, he "tsk" and frowned slightly: "It's too late." ”
Seeing the person's iconic fiery red hair clearly, he desperately squeezed out of the crowd and pulled off his uniform tie that had been pushed so much that he didn't know where to go: "Only now!" ”
"I'm sorry," the wolf glanced at the young man who was wolf, as if he felt that he was not the same as the calm face paralysis he had on a regular day
"The shops around were closed, and I ran three blocks to buy a pack of cigarettes. ”
“………”
"Don't sue those people, you'll be tired of thinking about it all the time."
The wolf's voice was low, and at this time, more than ten meters away from him, Diana roared again and pounced on him.
The wolf didn't look at the bow and arrow behind him, drew the bow, took aim, and with a loosening of his fingertips, the arrow flew out with great force, accurately piercing Diana's throat, and she even took a few steps back because of the force, and then was fixed to the wall behind her.
Diana didn't die right away.
She fluttered her arms with her teeth open, and a "he" "he" breath sound came out of her throat......
The voice seemed to be a signal to the other infected people, and the infected who were scattered in every corner of the restaurant stopped at the same time and continued to tear at the "prey" in their hands, one, two, three......
More and more berserkers stood up from behind the table.
Only then did he realize that his original rough estimate of only a dozen infected people was a big mistake.
There were forty guys with green eyes in the scene, to say the least.
In this case, everyone was frightened and stupid, and the cold air rose from the soles of their feet, and even the cocoon felt that his hair was a little numb......
"Can you handle all that?" The god asked the "bodyguard" who stood in front of him.
However, Mr. Bodyguard smiled bitterly: "It's also a strengthened race, even if I'm particularly good, it doesn't mean that I can fight forty." ”
“……”
"Seize the opportunity and escape," the wolf drew three bows and arrows from behind his back again, and instantly put down the three infected people neatly with his hands and feet, "Call the headquarters to call for help." ”
Less than two-thirds of the people were left in the cafeteria where hundreds of students had gathered, and the wolf stood at the front, and after restricting about a dozen infected people with his bow and arrows, he ran out of arrows, and he drew the dagger hanging from his waist and began hand-to-hand combat.
However, when the infected person gets close, his movements begin to become less fluid than before...... Just like the explanation for the berserker that Chubby found before, these infected seem to be incarnated into infinitely powerful creatures such as wolves or bears, and their mobility, attack power, and persistence have reached their peak.
When the students also noticed that their defenses were gradually moving back.
Their hearts, which had managed to let go a little, hung high again.
The cocoon god was squeezed in the middle of the crowd, and there was a mess everywhere, and he couldn't find where the little fat man was—at this moment, I don't know which student slammed open the security door, it seemed to open a gap, and the students who were still alive rushed out of the gap!
Soon, however, they discovered in despair that the only door to the outside had been sealed by the collapsing building outside, presumably because of the vibrations caused by the previous green light waves.
Some of the students began to cry, slamming the door in vain, while others sat on the ground with their eyes open...... In the restaurant not far away, the sound of fighting can be faintly heard.
"Let's go to the rooftop."
At this time, the cocoon god had to stand up and make a choice - and in this case, most people had lost the ability to think and just mechanically obeyed a command, so when the cocoon god did this, people began to move to the rooftop one after another......
The cocoon god followed at the back of the crowd, and before leaving, he saw the scene of the wolf being crushed to the ground by three berserkers, and not far away Diana, who had been nailed to the wall, stretched out her hand and fumbled to pull out the arrow nailed to her neck little by little.
The cocoon dialed Yucheng's phone, and after the phone rang twice, it was picked up.
"Berserker is berserk," said the god in a low voice, "just twelve o'clock, there was a green light, and then the voices of the last sky vision reappeared, and after that, those people were attacking humans indiscriminately, you-"
"The destruction mission failed, and now the detection shows that the crystal released three times as much energy as before the attempt to destroy it," a calm and somewhat indifferent voice sounded on the phone, "Where are you now?" ”
Number Six?
Fu Shen was stunned, took the phone off his ear, and glanced at it with a complicated expression, as if he could see the face on the other end of the phone through the screen of the phone.
"Ask you."
There was no answer, and an impatient voice rang on the other end of the phone.
"Trapped in the school by more than 40 berserkers, the building outside collapsed, we were stuck in the cafeteria and couldn't get out, and now we have to run up to the roof of the second floor."
"Can you jump down?"
"It's all ordinary students, what a jump."
"Where's your bodyguard?"
"A dozen forty? Are you serious? ”
On the other end of the phone, Enoch let out an impatient tongue smack, and after a few seconds of silence, he simply said "I know", and hung up the phone without waiting for the god to say anything more.
Dial again and shut down directly.
Fu was so angry that he almost vomited blood, scolded fiercely and slammed the phone against the wall-
All the students ran to the second floor of the cafeteria, and as the cocoon at the end of the crowd stepped onto the jogging platform on the second floor, he suddenly heard the sound of something slamming open the door on the first floor behind him, and then the familiar, beastly gasp sounded again in the hallway......
His heart began to beat wildly, cold sweat ran down his back, and the boy shivered fiercely.
"Shut the door, close the door, close the door! The table was moved over and held on! ”
The god rushed through the door, shouting at the boys to bring everything they could find, such as the dining table, to the door, and most of the girls huddled in the corner and cried in fear.
When dozens of tables were piled up in front of the door, everyone found that there was nothing to carry in their hands, and everyone fell to the ground and gasped for breath as if they were deflated, and everyone had panic written on their faces......
It was clear that it was more than 30 degrees below zero outside, but the sweat moistened their foreheads with a large patch of reads;.
The restaurant on the second floor plunged into a moment of tranquility.
After a long time, Joan's voice came from not far away.
"Guess how long these things last?"
No one answered.
Everyone just silently looked at the door of the restaurant, which seemed to be blocked.
At this moment, the door was slammed from the outside, and a bloody handprint appeared on the glass above the door - the glass was slapped from the outside, and the hand with the glass reached in from the outside, groped around, and seemed to find a point of focus......
Diana's face was half exposed, and she smiled at the people in the restaurant.
Then reach out and overturn all the piled tables!
When the stacked table clattered down, the crowd began to scream again, and the students quickly moved towards the back of the cafeteria.
"!"
Shocked and then quickly realized that this time they really couldn't avoid it, and when he thought that this time they were really done playing, suddenly, he heard a crow's cry from somewhere-
He was slightly stunned.
As Diana broke through the door with a group of infected, he mechanically turned his head to his right-
Then the familiar scene reappeared, the man with fiery red hair broke in through the window, and appeared in front of the cocoon god with lightning speed, the dagger in his hand cleanly cut the head of the infected closest to the cocoon god, and then kicked its body away, quickly changing the target of the next attack, only this time he did not use the dagger in his hand - in the case of insufficient arrows, the man pulled the bow, this time without using the arrow, the red light converged in his hand.
The god blinked, only to see the "i" symbol flickering under the man's eyes, gradually changing, and becoming another character-
The red arrow shot out, this time directly through Diana's skull, only to hear a loud "pop", and the head of the infected exploded!
Cocoon: "......"
In the crackling sound, the sound of feathers fluttering suddenly sounded in his ears, and then, the cocoon god only felt the itching caused by the soft feathers brushing over the earlobe, and then his shoulders sank......
He turned his head to look at the crow that had landed on his shoulder.
The bird, which was burying its head in arranging its feathers, seemed to sense his gaze, and made a pause, and turned its small head around.
A man and a bird looked at each other for a few seconds, and after a long time, the crow raised one of its claws as if it was disgusted, put it down, and then hesitantly raised the other claw...... Then, quickly move in the direction of the cocoon god's face to pull a distance.
Cocoon: "......"
It's this dead bird again.
