Chapter 31: The So-Called Alive (2-in-1 Chapter)
At 10:35 a.m. in Tiandu time, there are still twenty-five minutes left before the end of the treasure chest mission.
A circle of light appeared out of thin air in the hall on the first floor of the Machinery Building of Jiaotong University, and then, after a period of turmoil accompanied by the ripples in the aperture, Xiao Quan and others crossed out of it one after another.
In the center of the hall sat a golden giant monkey, which was bored scratching at the lice that didn't exist on its body, and its sharp claws touched the black plastic box where it was sitting on its buttocks.
In the empty hall, there was nothing but the various corpses on the ground covered in a thick layer of dust.
Suddenly, when it was stunned to see Xiao Quan and the others appear in a corner of the hall out of thin air, its eyes instantly erupted with angry fire, as if its territory had been invaded by a foreign enemy, its docile and obedient fur stood up like a thorn, and its long tail hanging on the box also stood up like an iron rod.
"Squeak!" The giant monkey opened its mouth and yelled at the humans not far away, but it didn't see any movement, Xiao Quan, who had just landed, felt a sound of breaking wind coming, and Huang Tianguo, who had just stepped out of the portal at the end, had already held his head and screamed in fear.
"Protection!" The big man Yao Bin took a step diagonally, and he only had time to protect Xiao Quan's front with his thick arms.
"Bang!"
But! Immediately, Yao Bin felt that the huge force coming from his arm was too strong, so strong that he couldn't resist the majestic impact, and with the huge impact of the foreign body, Yao Bin and Xiao Quan were both knocked out several meters away.
"Poof!" Xiao Quan, who was hit by Yao Bin's arm, only felt a tightness in his chest at this moment, his throat was sweet, and a mouthful of blood arrows spurted out, and when Xiao Quan glanced at the arm that was hanging on his chest, he knew that Yao Bin's arm was now only afraid that it had been abolished!
This monkey is worthy of the boss of the level, and with just one blow, he injured all the two strongest people in the team! Yao Bin, who has always appeared as the strongest guard, directly abolished an arm!
"Five people in formation!" Seeing this monkey standing on the box, slapping his chest and screaming proudly at the sky, Shao Benchu shouted, "Xiao Quan, attract the monkey!" ”
There is no time to complain about anything, now is the moment of life and death, there is no room for the slightest delay, Xiao Quan forcefully suppressed the churning blood in his chest, he quickly separated all the vitality in his body into two strands, and then endured the pain of the vitality forcibly rushing to the pulse, forced it to his legs, and then threw the big sword that he regarded as a treasure at the monkey in the air.
After doing this, Xiao Quan quickly spread his legs and ran around the monkey from a distance, from stepping to running, the explosive power of that moment actually made him pull out a thin phantom.
The remaining five people, including Huang Tianguo, forcibly restrained the fear in their hearts, and quickly followed Shao Benchu's order to stand in front of him according to the direction of the five elements. Then he held the rune paper tightly in front of his chest, and with all his strength, he used all the vitality that had just been absorbed into his abdomen, and pushed it towards the arm holding the rune paper.
Li Hang sisters and Huang Tingguo, who were far from reaching the third-level strengthening standard, had abnormal painful expressions in the process, and the lowest-level Huang Tingguo was even more because of the impact of the vitality, and blood oozed from the corners of his eyes, but this was the consequence that his blood vessels could not withstand the mania of the vitality, and there was a consequence of bursting.
At this time, I saw Shao Benchu bite the tip of his tongue and spit out a mouthful of true blood at the rune paper in his hand, he raised the rune paper to look at the angry giant monkey on the box, and struggled to emit an incomprehensible syllable from his lips, but as soon as the voice was brought out by the vocal cords, the already thin face instantly turned pale at a speed visible to the naked eye.
After Shao Benchu uttered that sound, the rune paper in the hands of the five people surrounding him emitted a bright light at the same time, and the light went from the beginning to the end to shine brightly, and it only took a few breaths.
"Duh!" Seeing the vitality gushing out from the six rune papers, gathering into one in the sky, Shao Benchu laboriously stretched out his right arm, his fingertips turned into a sword, leading the light body, and pointed at the giant monkey with great difficulty.
At this time, the giant monkey was already crazy to the extreme, because Xiao Quan transported all the vitality contained in his body to his legs, and in just a few minutes, the giant monkey could not lock Xiao Quan's figure at all.
This hateful little thing always circles around itself, and it has thrown the stones at hand, and has never hit it once, which can't help but make the giant monkey who thinks it is invincible in the world burst into a thunderous rage, but for unknown reasons, it is reluctant to take a step away from the box, so it can only stand in place and keep squeaking, and its eyes are chasing Xiao Quan's figure urgently, trying to find a flaw.
Xiao Quan, who was running, could no longer feel the existence of his legs, and now he could only move quickly by instinct, between his legs, which were shocked by the raging concussion of vitality, accompanied by his fast running, two thin lines of blood flowed out of it, coupled with the dark injury he received after being hit in the chest just now, Xiao Quan felt that he might be the first unlucky person to hang up in the run.
When Shao Benchu's word "duh" came out, the light body in the air entered the giant monkey's body in the blink of an eye, and the giant monkey who was very angry a second ago was as if he had been immobilized.
Immediately afterward, a dense layer of stone clothing, like a living creature, began to emerge from its heels, all the way to the top of its head, and finally covered its body epidermis, and the whole time was only a breath - this invincible mutant giant monkey was finally completely petrified.
"Xiao Quan! Get the box! After shouting this sentence vigorously, Shao Benchu began to cough lifelessly, using the forbidden skills that he couldn't bear at this stage, even if he turned the word into six syllables and asked the other five people to help him share the backlash, the consequences after using it were not something he could bear.
Xiao Quan, whose brain was already numb, collapsed directly to the ground after hearing Shao Benchu's voice, he opened his dry mouth, and after spitting out a few mouthfuls of blood, he finally breathed loudly and impatiently, like a freshwater fish that had been out of the water for too long.
"Time is running out, hurry!" Shao Benchu stretched his neck to stop coughing, and he shouted to Xiao Quan with all his might, because the ability to use it was limited, even if he was added to a total of six people, he could not fully exert the effect of this fixed body language.
In other words, the monkey could push back the energy that had locked it up at any moment, and then break the ban!
"Ah——!h Xiao Quan, who was lying on the ground, suddenly raised his neck and shouted to the sky, he took a breath in his chest, struggled to get up, and then stumbled to the monkey, and pushed the giant monkey that turned into stone to the side with his back, he lowered his head and picked up the plastic box on the ground and ran directly to Shao Benchu, grabbed his wheelchair and turned around towards the door, pushed it up and ran.
…………
When he ran out of the mechanical building, Xiao Quan's brain slowly came back to his senses from the vacuum.
He stopped and asked Shao Benchu urgently: "Paralyzed!" What about them? ”
"Leave them alone, we have to hurry back and hand in the mission, or we will all die!" Shao Benchu held his chest and said hoarsely, "Without them to contain the magic circle, the monkey would come back to life at any time." ”
Hearing this, Xiao Quan turned the wheelchair to himself, he gasped and looked at Shao Benchu, who was sitting on it, and said, "You have planned it a long time ago, right?" You're ready to use them as cannon fodder before you get the mission, right? Give me an explanation! Right now! ”
For a while, the two people in the field looked at each other with a gasping sound like a bellows......
"Ye Zhiqiu is Gao Bo's wife, if we want to complete Gao Bo's task chain, there will be a lot of variables with her, so we must get rid of it," Shao Benchu knew that Xiao Quan's donkey temper was committed again, and if he didn't explain it to him, he would really turn around and save those people, he tried hard to squeeze his voice out of the already scarred mulberry eyes, "The fat man is Adou who can't be helped, the foundation of the Li Hang sisters is too poor, Yao Bin has no understanding at all, these people follow him, it can't work." ”
"So, you just trick them into working for you, and then squeeze out their last use value, give them up, and let them wait for death, don't you?" Xiao Quan angrily grabbed Shao Benchu's collar and mentioned it in front of his eyes, and his neck, which was forced red by the fire, stood up.
He stared at Shao Benchu's pale face, gritted his teeth and said, "What about me?" When are you going to throw me away? ”
Shao Benchu tried his best to open his eyes wide, in order to use the forbidden language of the gods, he had already overdrawn part of his life force, he was extremely tired at this moment, and his eyes always couldn't stop wanting to close, he forced his spirit and whispered: "You are a person who has a sense in Tianshu, no accident, you should be the next door master, and it is my hope to go to Tiandu City for revenge, I will not let you die." ”
"Hah!" Xiao Quan looked at Shao Benchu in front of him with a mocking expression, he took the box into the air with one hand, and then let go, the box simply fell to the ground, making a few soft sounds, as if it was empty inside.
"Paralyzed, take your treasure chest and go back to the errand!" Xiao Quan said word by word, he threw Shao Benchu in the wheelchair like a chicken, and walked towards the mechanical building without looking back, but the walking steps were too embarrassed because of the serious injury.
"Come back, time ...... It's really not much...... "Shao Benchu, who was lost by Xiao Quan and had fallen into a semi-comatose state, was in a better spirit, he knew that this was similar to a state of returning to the light, and I was afraid that now he would faint anytime and anywhere.
He stretched out a hand tremblingly, and the void grabbed Xiao Quan's back, "What are you going to do?" You're just a gambler! ”
"It's true that I'm a gambler, but I'll only gamble with my own life!" Xiao Quan laboriously walked to the steps, and said without looking back, "Being a partner with a person who uses other people's lives as pawns all day long, I feel chills in my back when I think about it!" Oh people, sometimes it's better to be stupid! ”
…………
Looking at Xiao Quan's staggering back, Shao Benchu took a few breaths, he shook his head, his left sleeve shook, and a small yellow pill appeared in the palm of his hand, without hesitation, he swallowed the pill directly.
"What a mallet!" In less than a minute, Shao Benchu's face gradually improved, but the abnormal flushing on his cheeks proved the domineering potency of that pill, he let out a long sigh, lowered himself and picked up the box at his feet, carefully put it aside, and pulled out a piece of talisman paper from under the blanket.
Looking at this rune paper, which was obviously only half completed, Shao Benchu smiled bitterly and said: "This big meal was originally intended to be given to Gao Bo, but now it seems that it can only be cheaper for this monkey." ”
Putting down the talisman paper in his hand, Shao Benchu looked at the rows of stairs leading to the mechanical building with a lot of headaches, and muttered to himself: "In such a big school, isn't there even a special road for the disabled?" ”
…………
At 10:35 a.m. Tiandu time, there are twenty-five minutes left before the end of the treasure chest mission.
When Xiao Min took her steps from the grocery store, she knew that the path she would choose could be full of ups and downs, and she would lose her life at any time because of the great fear of the unknown.
But, since you have chosen, you can't give up - this is what Brother Xiao said to her, in fact, every word that Brother Xiao has said, Xiao Min will remember with his heart.
Zombies and alien beasts will not take the initiative to attack NPCs, as if in front of these monsters, the existence of Xiao Min and Wang Dashan is like air, therefore, Wang Dashan is not worried that Xiao Min will be attacked by these zombies and alien beasts along the way, what he is worried about is - heavenly punishment!
"Humph!" After stepping out of the safe range limited by the NPC, Xiao Min had just taken the first step, and a throbbing from the soul directly made her little face pale in an instant.
I saw her snort, and her small body couldn't stop shaking violently, but the belief in wanting to rescue Xiao Quan was like a pair of stable big hands, firmly holding her shoulders, so that she could barely stand.
"Liao Xiaomin! You have to be strong! You still have to save Big Brother Xiao and Big Brother Shao! You can't go down! Xiao Min bit her lip stubbornly, she tried hard to cheer herself up, and the natural stubbornness in her temperament made her look a little similar to Xiao Quan at this time.
However, just as Xiao Min's second step was taken, and the foot just fell to the ground, the palpitating stinging pain came from her brain again, and she finally couldn't bear the inhuman pain, screamed, and fell to the ground.
For a long time, Xiao Min looked at his wrist propped up on the ground - three minutes had passed!
Yes, this strong little girl finally supported the ground with her thin arms and didn't let herself lie on her stomach!
Because she knew that once she fell to the ground, it would be difficult to think about it again, and at this time, she felt as if all her internal organs were displaced.
With the help of the strength of her wrist, Xiao Min stood up trembling with her fists, she looked into the distance through the white mist, it was Jiaotong University, the destination of her trip - Brother Xiao, you must wait for me!
…………
When Xiao Min slowly walked out of the corner of the grocery store step by step, several figures walked over quickly, just turning their backs to Xiao Min's figure, led by Liu Blind, who betrayed Xiao Quan!
Liu Blind, who has been the leader for too long, has a little overestimating himself......
In the past, when the ruffians led by him were entrenched in the Happy Events Supermarket, in addition to eating the materials of the supermarket itself, they sent people to rob and kill the same kind, in this short three months, they seemed to have never faced the zombie group alone, and there were, only one or two scattered, which also relied on him to hold food and women to stimulate the courage of his subordinates, otherwise, this group of rabble would only scatter and escape.
Since being subdued by Xiao Quan, with the help of Ye Zhiqiu and others assigned by him, in the plastic surgery hospital and old-fashioned residential buildings, although Liu Blind and others have also slashed and killed a lot of zombies, but these are the remaining semi-cripples of Ye Zhiqiu and them, and these things are sent to the door in Xiao Quan's opinion, Liu Blind will lose a vote of the right-hand man, so their combat power can be imagined......
However, two consecutive "independent" victories over "a large number of" zombies gave Liu Blind and others a kind of blind self-confidence, and in their eyes, the zombies that were not human to resist in the past were nothing more than that, so the result was tragic......
After the collective defection and escape from the Biochemical Laboratory Building, Liu Blind and Three Eyes led a total of eighteen people, except for the Heizi who hunted down Xue Mazi and his three subordinates, there were still fourteen people under Liu Blind's hands.
But when he walked to the block where the grocery store was located, there were only four people left who followed Liu Blind, and a full nine people hung up......
"Brothers, listen carefully, except for the broken shop that can't be touched, whoever touches it will die, other places are making a fuss casually, Lao Tzu wants to let the surnamed Xiao come back, crying without tears!" Liu Blind wiped his bare skull fiercely, looked at the grocery store in front of him, and said sharply.
"You two come with me to get all the medicines that Xiao Quan hid on the second floor, and move them out, I know where a few tricycles are parked!" Triangle Eye commanded, although he had lost a lot of brothers, he didn't care, as long as he had this batch of supplies in his hand that was more valuable than food, he would go anywhere.
Looking at the posture of the boss of the triangular eye, a trace of anger welled up in Liu Blind's heart, but he immediately covered it up - now is not the time to solve this trouble, and before he empties Xiao Quan's base camp and finds the next place to stay, he can do this eye-catching thing at any time.
Thinking of this, Liu Blind's hanging left hand secretly clenched hard - no one knows, he was born left-handed! No one even knows that he has already reached a certain level of strengthening, if according to the evaluation criteria formulated by Shao Benchu, Liu Blind at this time has already reached the level of second-level strengthening!
