Chapter 14: Delay
Time, hour by hour. All living things are changing. Especially people.
It had been dark for thirty hours, but the sun had never risen. Despair and panic are secondary, and at the top are hunger.
In a metropolis like Lihai, for example, students and office workers and tourists from all over the world make up the majority of the population. When did these people go hungry?
People hiding in food stores, supermarkets, and restaurants at home are fine, but people hiding in clothing stores, stationery stores, newsstands, and bookstores are not doing well.
Thirty hours of grief and panic, coupled with a happy stomach that was not affected by the outside world at all, and the weak voices of relatives who survived.
"Dad, I'm so hungry......" may be the son who usually refuses to treat half a point badly, and his little face is pale when he is afraid and hungry.
"Brother, give it to you!" Maybe it's a snack that is obediently taken out of the schoolbag.,It's obviously not good.,But I still remember the baby sister of courtesy.。
In short, in the dark night, people finally came out of the building with flashlights one after another, and they ganged up to get out of the building that couldn't hide for long.
Then, these people were soon excited to notice the changes in their bodies.
They can cross wide roads in under a second, smash bricks on the ground with one kick, and crumple the lid of a garbage bin......
It turns out that God still has left human beings with the ability to resist and a glimmer of hope.
The woman who swept by like the wind on the national highway slowed down slightly when she encountered the first wave of post-apocalyptic humans.
In thirty hours, she traveled a hundred kilometers.
Now, she only needs to bypass the bustling town of the farmhouse less than five kilometers in front of her, and she can leave Liunan Province.
It's just that after holding up the backpack that was two pounds lighter, Night Sky Star still decided to go to the town to have a look first. Stuff your stomach and fill your backpack to the brim.
The hunger in her previous life that she wanted to tear up her backpack and eat it, she didn't want to enjoy it again.
Five kilometers, if she let go of the run, it would be less than three minutes.
But unexpectedly, she hadn't run a few steps before she ran into someone again.
"Stop...... Get down! There's a monster in town! ”
There are a total of seven people on the other side, except for a petite and delicate girl, all of them are five big and three thick men.
It was the girl who was surrounded in the middle and could keep up with the speed of several men. She seemed to have reached her limit, and as soon as she stopped, her knees went limp, and she almost fell to her knees.
"Miss!" The man closest to her immediately held her up.
Night Sky Star stopped, with the lineup of these few people, it was impossible for ordinary mutant beasts to let them run away like this.
In this town, there are either a lot of mutant beasts, or the mutant beasts are very powerful.
She's here to find food, not to die.
The girl gasped, and Night Skystar, who was a head taller than her, shook her head and said, "There is a family in the town that has five cows, and four of them have become monsters. There is also a rabbit house, a nanny rabbit raised by a family, which has also mutated by more than half, and the hair on its whole body has become red, and more than a hundred of them have jumped up and shook the ground. The whole town escaped with us and the other three men who ran ahead. Others...... Others ......"
The girl was sobbing and couldn't speak, but she was wearing a night vision device and couldn't tell if she was crying.
It seems that her family may have suffered misfortune.
Night Sky Star noticed the silver night vision devices of the seven of them, and while guessing the identity of this girl, he was secretly shocked.
I've never heard of such a high mutation rate anywhere in my previous life?
However, thinking about this time in her previous life, she was still in Lihai! I don't know how long it took to escape from that dead city.
When he escaped, Guan Shu was already dead. The three of them also plan to go to the inaccessible snow-capped mountains, and they also follow this path.
Of course, the goals are not the same.
This time, the place she was going to was Longshou Peak in the White Dragon Mountain Range. In the previous life, they planned to go out of Liunan Province along the national highway and go to Mount Everest on the border of China.
Of course, they didn't make it. Even they haven't stepped out of Liunan Province yet.
Her younger brother died, and she stopped in this town, and it took half a year to slowly return to Lihai, and finally died there.
Think about the weird giant horse in the previous life with corrosive functions everywhere in the body, and it was here that she tried to sneak attack her and was killed by her.
After that, she had never encountered such a corrosive mutant again.
Now that I think about it, is that rare corrosive mutant beast related to the super high mutation rate of this town?
Except for birds that can fly, most mutant beasts don't like to go too far. In the last nine months, Lihai's devil-tailed peacock and white-bone giant elephant did not leave Lihai. Not to mention, when she killed the giant horse, it was less than the third month of the end of the world.
So, it's very likely that the horse was mutated in this town.
So what exactly happened, or what made this town different from the rest?
Night Sky Star thought as he thanked the girl. Anyway, after all, people reminded you.
"You're welcome, I can't watch you die." The girl waved her hand and said.
Just when the girl was about to open her mouth to say something again, Ye Tianxing suddenly wrung her eyebrows, grabbed the girl's arm, and ran away with her hanging in the air like Xu Lei.
"Miss!"
"Stop!"
"Let go of Miss!"
The men pulled out their guns one after another and pointed them at the night star.
They thought that the night star knew the identity of this girl, so they came to rob her.
This bullet can't hit monsters, it's still okay to hit people.
Although the speed of the night star was amazing, she didn't dodge, just ran along the side of the road. She calculated the time, and those men were eighty percent of the girl's bodyguards, and they didn't have time to shoot.
Sure enough, after only three seconds of running away from Night Sky Star, the ground began to tremble slightly.
A bunch of blood-red monsters "jumped" and caught up. When those bodyguards saw it, where could they care about shooting?
Eight people ran along the national highway, and the girl looked in amazement at the night star, who was running as fast as she could effortlessly, and was still embarrassed to let a girl who looked a few years older than herself drag her. Seeing that several bodyguards were dropped by her more than ten meters every second, and when they had fallen a long distance for a while, the girl opened her mouth and asked the night star to let her down.
Anyway, seeing that he had reached the fork in the road, the night star also put the girl down.
She had planned to go to the town to get some food and then return, and from this concrete road into the small village next to the town, bypassing the town, climbing over the hill at the west end of the village, and then going on the national highway to her destination.
Of course, it's not that there are no shops in the village, but after she goes to the town to buy things, she can accelerate with all her strength and rush through the village as fast as possible to avoid the battle with the mutant beasts.
In this kind of small village, almost every household will raise two livestock. She didn't want to be surrounded by mutant beasts while she was refueling the calories in the village shop, and then get caught in a group battle and not be able to escape for a short time.
Besides, she went to the shops in the town to see how the town was doing. If it wasn't too dangerous, she wouldn't have to take a detour.
Now, however, the plans have been disrupted.
Looking at the group of rabbits that were approaching quickly, with a jump of more than ten meters, covered with jagged hair, and sharp fangs growing in their three-petaled lips, they no longer looked like rabbits, and the night star fled into the village. She was unwilling to run back, she finally got here, and then ran back, what's the matter!
Besides, there were three people who just entered this small village.
Although it is a bit immoral to lure them into mutant rabbits, there is power in numbers. They were able to escape, proving that they have what it takes. There are eleven people in total, and the odds of winning against those rabbits and the mutant beasts in the village are also a little better.
Nightstar had an idea in her mind, to kill a little more mutant beasts in the town, and maybe she could find the mutant horse.
That kind of weapon that can hurt a fourth-order mutant beast, she has to do her best to get it.
But, no matter what, her trip was delayed.
Seeing that the night sky star did not take the national road, but walked towards the village where there were many mutant beasts. The girl stopped her in confusion: "Every family in the village has people raising cattle and horses, which is very dangerous. ”
Ye Tianxing didn't look back and said: "There is a nest of rats in the back, which is very difficult." ”
She didn't panic, she did have a nest of difficult mice, but she killed it.
The girl's face turned pale, was this forced to have no way out?
Seeing that the group of mutant rabbits was getting closer and closer, the girl gritted her teeth and rushed into the village with Night Sky Star.
It's just that it wasn't clear that she was being carried by the night star, and when she ran up, the girl immediately saw the gap. Night Sky Star was almost twice as fast as hers. Not to mention running fast, she also unloaded her dozens of kilograms.
She is not an unreasonable and narrow-minded girl who can't see the heights in the distance, otherwise, she wouldn't have to run by herself and refuse the bodyguard to carry her to escape. Therefore, there is no such thing as jealousy.
She knew that the world had changed.
She is a girl, although she has a noble status, but she is alone, and she can't contact her home in the capital, so she can only throw it aside. She knows that only by working hard and becoming a strong person can she save her life and find her home.
She doesn't want to die outside in suffocation! Of the ten bodyguards around her, four left on the first day. This set off a bell for her.
It's not at home! There are no parents and brothers to protect her, only the remaining six bodyguards who don't know when they will leave.
Others can't rely on it, only on yourself!
The girl followed the path that the night star walked, and the pride and tenacity in her eyes were bright and amazing!
