Chapter 318: The End Is Coming: Goodbye, Tess
"Hey, you two, can you hear me out? We were a team of three, remember? ”
Tang Tu walked between Joel and Tess, who were arguing, and Joel and Tess looked at Tang Tu together, waiting for him to speak. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"I agree with both of you. Yes, we want to live, but we must live with hope, otherwise what is the difference between living and those zombies. Admit it, Joel, it's a hope, and you really want to give it up? ”
Tang Tu looked at Joel and waited for his answer, but Tess suddenly smiled bitterly.
"Joel, this is my last stop, and my last hope, I can't give up..."
"Damn, you got bitten?" Ellie covered her mouth and stepped back.
"Yes, just an hour ago, in that dark museum."
Tang Tu took a breath, they did meet a few Voice Followers in the museum just now, because it was too dark inside, and he didn't watch the scene where Tess was bitten.
Tess suddenly grabbed Ellie's arm, revealing her bite wound, and then pointed to her own wound.
"This is a wound from three weeks ago, I was bitten an hour ago and I have started to get worse. That's the damn reality, Joel, Ellie didn't lie, she's the only hope. ”
Tess shoved Ellie in front of Joel, "You take her to Tommy, he's been part of that group, he should know where the lab is." ”
Joel shook his head, "This is your holy war, I won't do it." ”
"You have to do this, there will be enough reason why you feel obligated to help me," Tess looked at Joel almost beggingly, "please take her to Tommy." ”
"Joel, why don't you tell me where Tommy is, and I'll take Ellie to Tommy alone, and you can give me a token to prove my identity." Tang Tu said.
Joel shook his head, "You can't find it..."
Tang Tu knew in his heart that in this kind of place full of ruins, finding people was the most difficult thing.
At this time, the sound of motor vehicles suddenly sounded outside, and it was the tank of the Zhengfu Army that had arrived. Looks like they've spotted what's going on here.
Tess stood by the window and looked at it and said, "They're coming, I can delay for a while, you guys take her and leave quickly." ”
"What? You want us to leave you like that? Ellie looked at Tess in disbelief. Along the way, the closest person to Ellie is Tess.
Joel kept shaking his head.
Tess looked at him and said, "I don't want to be one of those guys, either you take Ellie to find hope, or you give me a shot now..."
"We can fight with you." Joel said.
Tess pushed Joel away, "No, run away, there is hope if you escape." ”
Tang Tu took Ellie's hand, he was already planning to leave, but he still had to wait for Joel and Tess to finish the plot.
Finally able to go, Tang Tu, Joel and Ellie, the three of them went up to the second floor, and seeing that the Zhengfu Army killed Tess, the three of them jumped down from the side window of the second floor and rushed into the subway station next to them.
The subway station was full of spore gas, and the Zhengfu army didn't want to come down, Tang Tu and Joel put on gas masks, and Ellie didn't need to.
"You can breathe these gases?" Joel looked at Ellie.
"I didn't lie to you." Ellie said. It has been proven that she does have antibodies in her.
The subway station was flooded, and the trio swam from the water to another exit. Fortunately, there are no zombies under the water.
Finally coming out of the subway station, Tang Tu and Joel sat on the ground and took off their masks and gasped for air. What a comfortable breath of fresh air, wearing a mask to breathe part-time is abuse.
Ellie didn't seem to be affected at all, standing in front of Tang Tu and the others, she said apologetically, "Listen... About Tess... I don't even know what to do..."
"I'll tell you what we're going to do next," Joel interrupted Ellie, "and you're not allowed to mention Tess again." In fact, I'd prefer that we keep it a secret.
Also, don't tell anyone about your current situation. They're either going to kill you if they think you're crazy. Finally, whatever I say, you do it. Did we make it clear? ”
Ellie nodded, "Of course." ”
"I'll listen to you too." Tang Tu also expressed his position. He was blindsided, and without NPCs, the mission would have failed.
"Repeat what I said."
"What you say, what do I do."
"Good. There's a little town a few miles to the north, and there's a guy there who owes me a little favor... We can ask him to help us get a car. Let's move on. ”
Ellie's mood was a little low, and Tang Tu patted her on the shoulder, "Don't worry, Joel is reliable." Don't forget, there's me. ”
Leaving the urban quarantine area, Tang Tu and the three of them marched on the road in the suburbs.
Looking at the scenery on the road, Ellie couldn't help but sigh, "Wow, these things... It's spectacular, I've never seen anything like this before..."
"Forest?" Tang Tu said with a smile. Yes, after industrial civilization was abandoned, forests replaced fields.
"Yes, I've never seen a forest, such tall trees... It's pretty cool. ”
Joel led the way in front, and he walked so slowly that one couldn't help but worry that he would return.
"Why don't you take me back to Marlene?" Ellie said suddenly.
Tang Tu glanced at Joel's back, patted Ellie's shoulder and said, "If Marlene could take on the task of escorting you, she wouldn't have handed you over to us." Rest assured, we won't leave you behind. ”
"Maybe she's better now." Ellie said.
Joel suddenly turned to look at Ellie and said, "Kid, I didn't mean to disappoint you, but your friend's chances of surviving aren't high, let alone anything else. ”
"She's a lot stronger than you think." Ellie said a little puffy.
"She's also in more trouble than you think." Tang Tu said.
"You know, what's the real problem, do you think it's going to be easier to get back to the city now? Believe me, I wish there were other options as well. Joel said.
Walking through the forest, Tang Tu and the three came to a farm, the fence of the farm was too high for them to climb over, so they had to go around. Ellie is happy because she sees fireflies, real fireflies.
Standing on the water tower, the three of them looked at the town not far away, and the smoke of war rose in the town.
Looking at Joel's puzzled eyes, Tang Tu asked suspiciously, "You haven't been here either?" ”
"I know he lives here, but... I haven't been here myself. Joel said.
"The smoke... It seems like there's a lot of movement, do you think your friends will be there? ”
"Damn better..." (To be continued.) )
