Chapter 174: Trivia

"Pavilions and birches, long blue sky, slight south wind.

The magnolia blossoms on the hill of the northern spring, ah, the northern spring has come

The city does not know the change of seasons, and does not know that the seasons have changed.

Mom is still sending parcels and winter clothes to protect against the harsh winter.

Hometown, hometown, my hometown, when will I be able to return to your arms. ”

Li Mu listened to the song played on the radio of Larkin Bede, and for some reason, his nose suddenly became sore. The mother of this life has died at the hands of the marauders sent by the Ouroboros. The parents in the previous life were as far away as a world from themselves. The only sister should be in Zhongzhou, which is thousands of miles away from her.

At this moment, hearing this song, he suddenly felt a suffocating sense of loneliness.

"Click!" With a bang, the singing on the radio of Rakin Bede suddenly stopped.

"Ahem, because some listeners shot bullets into the studio to protest, this song Northern Spring, which Ah Liang himself likes very much, had to stop playing."

Li Mu shook his head, ripped off the headphones on his ears, stood up, and walked to Li Mei's side.

At the moment they were on the twenty-third floor of a skyscraper. The main structure of this building is very solid, most of the exterior walls have been peeled off, and there are still traces of thermal radiation from the nuclear bomb explosion. But it still stands tall on the city's skyline and is home to humans and mutated creatures.

A pile of ghoul corpses lay there, they were the original residents of this level, and their stench could cover the smell of the two of them, so Li Mu still left this pile of corpses here.

To the east of the building, there used to be a small garden before the war. Now this small garden is left with only a small pool in the center. Right now. The area of this small pool has been expanded dozens of times and has become a small lake. The entire original garden was swallowed under the water.

"Is there any movement of the king snake?"

Li Mu asked with a frown.

This king snake is House. One of the most powerful mutant creatures of the information Lee sold him. It has been at least twelve years since he was promoted to the third energy level.

Snakes have a long lifespan, and it is still a very young king snake. It's in the middle of a small lake downstairs.

The king snake is a snake of the family Snake family, which is large and ferocious, crawling fast, agile, and can climb rocks and trees. Even if they encounter their own kind, they will kill each other. When there is a shortage of food, they will even directly devour their own kind.

It had eaten up all the living creatures in the small lake, turning it into a pool of stagnant water.

"It hasn't come out yet, according to the rules I recorded, it should have come out to forage for food at this time."

Li Mei took out her notebook. I took a look at the activity map left over from previous observations. The size of the king snake is very large, and the energy required to sustain life is correspondingly huge. This allows it to eat every two to three days to replenish its energy, and the rest of the time, sleep in water to reduce its consumption.

Just when Li Mei felt strange, the calm lake began to change. Under the dark green water, a long black and yellow shadow suddenly appeared, which was extremely long, more than 20 meters long and more than a meter in diameter. It's a veritable behemoth.

It was a beautiful big snake. The whole body is covered with black and yellow scales, like brocade. The sturdy head has a black markings like a "king". Beneath the hard and fine scales, the strong muscles are constantly arching and contracting.

The king snake swims very fast. "Whizzing" through the ruins. The patterns on the body have almost become blurred shadows. As soon as its upper body was erect, the scales under its abdomen were attached to the exterior wall of the skyscraper. The heavy body circled the skyscraper, scurrying upwards at a rapid pace.

Li Mu squinted his eyes. Pulled out the cloak of invisibility, shook it open and wrapped it around himself and Li Mei. A change of light and shadow. The two of them disappeared where they were.

Although the king snake is omnivorous and almost never picky, it still does not eat stinky ghouls. Their floor is filled with the stench of ghouls.

This king snake will not come to their level to feed.

Sure enough, this king snake flew past the outer wall with a heavy fishy wind, and its yellow-brown vertical pupils that shimmered with cold light didn't even glance into the floor.

It wasn't long before there was a panicked scream and wailing from the upper hand. With a two-headed mutant cow in his mouth, the snake swam down the floor, its massive body burrowing back into the lake. There was a rush of water in the lake, and blood gushed out. The king snake was feeding underwater.

Lifting the cloak of invisibility, Li Mu covered his nose, after the king snake swam over, it would leave a strong stench. This is the means they use to swear their territory.

Li Mei took out a notebook and wrote down the route that Wang Jin Snake climbed.

"It's almost exactly the same route as last time."

She looked at Li Mu with adoring eyes.

"As the top of the food chain in this area, the king snake has used this building as a back garden, and sees all the living creatures that inhabit the building as food that it can hunt at will. It simply didn't occur to me that something could threaten it. ”

The reason why Li Mu chose this king snake among the fifteen mutated creatures of the third energy level was because reptiles were much lazier than mammals, and their activity time was also very regular. It is very easy to rely on improvised explosive devices for ambushes.

With a slow breath, Li Mu returned to the edge of the tent and sleeping bag. He sat down on a small stool beside him, lit the alcohol stove, and set the soup pot on it.

Inside the soup pot was a two-headed mutant cow with intact pieces of meat, and Li Mu cut some potatoes and poured them inside. The alcohol lamp was so powerful that it didn't take long for a steaming steam to come out of the pot.

Opening the refrigerator on the side, Li Mu took out two cans of cold soda from it and threw one of them to Li Mei.

"Take a sip of soda, this two-headed mutant cow is enough for the king snake to digest for two days, and it won't move for two days. As for the other third-level mutant creatures, they didn't dare to approach the territory of this king snake at all. Now we are safe. ”

Shen Luoyan nodded obediently, walked down from the observation post at the edge of the floor, sat down next to Li Mu, opened the soda, and drank it in small sips.

After experiencing the stench of edema and glowing seeds, the smell of those ordinary ghouls, the two of them no longer paid attention to it at all.

"Huh, I taught you more than 300 words last time, before eating, let's dictate and see how much you remember now."

He put the soda aside, took out a notebook, and handed it to Li Mei. (To be continued.) )
