Chapter 70 (II) The Walking Dead of the Machine

"Corpses." After speaking, Jin Cheng shook his head again, "But how can there be metal parts?" ”

"I don't know." Gu Yan shook his head and raised his gun to look around, "There are still traces of explosions around, and there is a large crater in front, as if it has been attacked by a missile." ”

Tang Shuxing pointed at Gu Yan, and then pointed to his eyes, motioning for Gu Yan to help him keep an eye on it, and then he leaned over and ran forward, lying on one of his arms, grabbed it and observed it for a while, pressed the intercom and said, "Two, guess what this thing is?" ”

"Come on, don't sell it." That Jincheng looked up.

"The arm of the machine, like a humanoid machine, judging from the wreckage around it, and it was a group, at least dozens of them, and then it was directly blown to pieces by a missile." Tang Shuxing said and got up to look at the town below the mountain, "The town has almost been blown up and burned, it seems that the resistance army has 'disinfected' here, the key is what are these things?" ”

"Won't you go down and see?" That Jin Cheng said that he was leaving, Tang Shuxing turned to look at him and said, "We don't have protective clothing, only gas masks, what if this kind of thing will also infect us?" ”

"What do you mean?" Na Jin asked.

Tang Shu said: "Zhan Tianya said that this virus has a 100% fatality rate, and it will kill a person within five minutes, you two don't take risks, wait for me on the periphery, cover me, I'll go in first, wait for at least half an hour, if I'm okay, you can come in again." ”

As he spoke, Tang Shuxing ran directly in the direction of the town, and his previous words were completely orders. Rather than negotiating.

Gu Yan and Na Jincheng had to run behind, at a commanding height near the town, the two of them set up the guns in their hands, Na Jincheng was responsible for observing, and Gu Yan kept staring at the back of Tang Shuxing who ran into the town.

At the moment when Tang Shuxing entered the town, Gu Yan saw a figure passing by at the window of a ruin in the south of the square from the scope, and immediately notified Tang Shuxing, and Jin Cheng also immediately looked at it with a telescope, but found that the window was empty.

Tang Shuxing stopped on the side of the ruins, probed out, and said, "I didn't see anyone." I didn't feel anyone either. Did something blow through the wind? ”

"It's windless now, don't believe it yourself, look up at the rag hanging from that telephone pole above your head." Gu Yan continued to observe the surroundings.

Tang Shuxing below put down the pistol in his hand and looked up at the top of the telephone pole, and sure enough, the rags hanging there did not move. This indicates that the air flow in this area is now calm. There was no wind blowing at all.

"I continued to go deeper. You look at the depth of my position, if there is anything unusual, if not. I'll just move forward. Tang Shuxing waited there, waiting for Gu Yan to say "I didn't find it", and immediately jumped out, shuttling through the ruins, trying to find something useful, even if it was a corpse, but he didn't even find half a corpse, not a single stump.

Tang Shuxing stopped in front of a large house, which was half blown down, he squatted in it, looked around and said, "Strange thing, nothing found, no corpse......"

Gu Yan and Na Jincheng glanced at each other, both of them knew very well that after the incident, many people were infected and died, and then the resistance army bombed and threw incendiary bombs, even if Shangdu's crimson bombs were thrown, they couldn't burn all the corpses here, right? How can you not see anything?

"Wait!" Na Jin Cheng looked into the distance and found a pair of feet at the back of a room, "Tang Shuxing, your two o'clock direction, on the side of a three-story building, there seems to be a corpse, wearing military boots, you better go over and take a look, and besides, you have been down for about half an hour now." ”

"It should be fine, it has no effect on us, you can come down." Tang Shuxing said and ran towards that side first, preparing to find a suitable place to cover that Jincheng.

Na Jincheng patted Gu Yan on the shoulder, signaling him to keep an eye on it, and then helped Gu Yan place two mines around him, and then ran down.

When Na Jincheng ran to Tang Shuxing's location, he found Tang Shuxing squatting in front of a corpse that had been cut in two by something, the corpse was wearing a chemical protective suit, a gas mask, a backpack thrown next to it, and an assault rifle full of magazines in his hand.

Tang Shuxing saw that Jin Cheng was coming, pointed to the assault rifle and said: "I didn't shoot a single bullet, I was killed, cut in two, and died directly." ”

Tang Shuxing said and pointed to the wall next to him, and Jin Cheng looked at it and found that the wall was full of blood.

"What's in the bag?" Na Jin asked.

"I didn't look at it, you can take a look, I'll check the body." Tang Shuxing said as he cut the man's protective suit with a dagger, and took off the gas mask, from the clothes inside, it can be seen that this guy is a soldier on the side of the Resistance, and it can also be seen from the tattoos on his body that he used to be a soldier of the British SAS Air Service Regiment, and in the Resistance, he is also elite.

"Only one person?" Tang Shuxing looked around, "It's too weird, it's impossible to send one person, what about the others?" ”

"Maybe they're separated." That Jin Cheng flipped through his backpack, took out a notebook with an external hard disk from it, and held it up to Tang Shuxing, "This hard disk looks like it's on a server, maybe it's a clue they found, open it and take a look?" ”

Tang Shuxing nodded: "Find a relatively safe place." ”

The two climbed up to the third floor of the ruins, a place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the enemy had to climb up like them if they wanted to come up.

After going up, Na Jincheng opened the computer to read the hard drive, and found that it was full of video texts, judging from the date number, it should have been taken by surveillance. Tang Shuxing looked out from the window, and couldn't figure out why this person appeared here alone? It is absolutely impossible for such well-trained soldiers to be separated, and they will not leave their posts without permission, unless they encounter some other emergency situation.

"Come and see, it's terrifying." That Jin Cheng called Tang Shuxing, and the two squatted there looking at the video in the computer, and clearly saw how people were infected and died after the explosion, but because the video was too long, Na Jin Cheng deliberately chose a video with the largest volume and the longest time.

Na Jincheng pulled the progress bar faster, and when he saw the back, he finally saw a continuous explosion outside, followed by an overwhelming flame, but at this time, the corpse that was originally photographed earlier was gone.

"Look back, look back." Tang Shuxing urged beside him, "You have been pulling back too fast, and you have ignored something in the middle, there must be something." ”

Na Jincheng counted the time, and it took three days from the explosion of the infectious disease outbreak to the bombing, which means that something must have happened in the middle of the day.

The two began to patiently and slowly pull the progress bar, and finally when they saw a change in one of the corpses somewhere, the hand of Jin Cheng stopped, and clicked on the normal playback, and then the two saw that the people who had died and turned into corpses a day before filmed in the video were twitching and struggling on the ground, and then the body unfolded again, and the skin on the surface began to dry up, and after this process, these people who were already dead stood up and walked in another direction with heavy steps.

"The Walking Dead?" Na Jincheng was surprised, "Sure enough, it's a walking corpse, isn't it the same as the Astaya incident?" And now it's not uncommon for there to be walking corpses all over the world, so why break out here? Is it because this new virus is highly contagious? ”

"No, it's not that simple, this is a high-definition video, you pay attention to that guy's body, you zoom in." Tang Shuxing looked at the screen and said, "Don't forget jì, the pile of so-called corpses of the machine qì people we saw before we entered the town. ”

That Jin Cheng glanced at Tang Shuxing, enlarged the video, and sure enough, he saw that the flesh on the surface of the person's calf had fallen off, and the bones inside were exposed to black, and under the illumination of the light, it reflected a kind of light that only metal could have.

That Jin Cheng looked at it dumbfounded, and said for a long time: "What does this mean?" This virus can kill people, not to mention, but also turn people into machines? How is this possible? ”

"From the day there was Shangdu, nothing else was impossible." Tang Shuxing shook his head, watching the walking corpses in the video leave the scope of the monitoring, he continued to pull back, and after seeing the explosion, he understood why there were no corpses, because these corpses were all gone after mutation, and they didn't know where to go, anyway, they avoided the explosion, and the location of this surveillance camera should also be behind a solid wall, luckily evaded the bombing, and took a picture of the moment of the bombing, and then stopped working because of the power outage of the bombing guide.

Na Jin Cheng closed the computer and put it in his bag: "The machine qì walking corpse, how can Shangdu have this kind of technology?" What does Reinhardt want to do? ”

Tang Shuxing shook his head: "It doesn't have to be Reinhardthy's doing, maybe there are others." ”

"Who?" Na Jin asked.

Tang Shu said: "That computer, maybe it was some kind of virus infectious disease that it created." ”

"But that's too weird, living people, bones turn into metal, even if that's possible, they become machine people, what drive? What is energy? That Jin Cheng wondered.

Tang Shuxing looked outside: "Who knows, we'd better find a complete machine qì walking corpse now, just study it well." ”

When the two were discussing leaving to reconnoiter the surroundings, Gu Yan's voice came from the intercom: "Stop chatting, find a place to hide, there are drones coming, and there are three drones, flying from a low altitude in the east, the speed is very fast, I can see the missiles hanging under the wings on both sides of the drone!" ”

When Tang Shuxing and Na Jincheng heard this, they immediately jumped down from the third floor of the ruins, found a lower wall, hid in the shadow of the wall, and guessed what the drone was here to do, if it was to investigate, it would leave in half an hour at most, but if it was to come to the second fixed-point attack, the possibility of the two being hit by the missile was a bit big, they didn't know the target of the drone's attack, maybe it was near the low wall where they were......
