Chapter Twenty-Three: The Imminent Fall of Tongjiang City
Because the frequency of zombies along the way is getting higher and higher, Lu Cangyao's speed is not fast.
The windows were ajar, and the flowers and lightning were on the edge of the glass, releasing wind blades and arcs like her, but unfortunately the accuracy was too poor, as if they were playing around.
Poor Chubby's ability is completely useless in battle, and he can only watch his two friends abandon him and have fun.
The pitch-black sky slowly turned inky blue, and then to a light blue covered with a thin gray mist.
The stars are gone, and the dawn breaks.
Lu Cangyao frowned slightly, the closer he got to Tongjiang City, the heavier the unspeakable fishy smell and rancid smell wafting from the wind, and the elemental energy in the air was also very restless.
It's not the kind of activity that was attracted by Yan Yan yesterday afternoon, but there is a sense of irritability that "the six relatives don't recognize".
This kind of omenβ
It's a bit similar to the zombie siege, but it's much weaker.
β¦β¦ Probably she really said that Tongjiang City may be finished.
Unable to move forward for the time being, Lu Cangyao parked the car on the side of the road, leaning on the back of the chair, his eyes drooping slightly, and his thoughts were surging.
In the past, she was alone, no matter what kind of danger she faced, as long as she faced it, so she could go anywhere. Now with two people, there are more things to pay attention to.
Oh, and three cats.
After sitting quietly for about five minutes, she made a plan for all the possible situations she could think of, making sure that even if it was an emergency, she had time to respond to the rescue, and then woke up the two of them.
The sound of long and regular breathing became rapid, Yuan Lin took a deep breath, pinched his eyebrows, felt that he was awake, and then untied the blanket wrapped around his body.
Cleared my throat, it was fine, the sound was normal, no cold.
Yan Yan pulled the blanket above his head and yawned long before lifting the blanket on his body and sitting up.
I want to cut my hair every day.
Because it was Lu Cangyao who was keeping watch at night, Yuan Lin and Yan Yan slept very peacefully, and they were full of energy when they slept.
Yan Yan tucked back her long hair and moved her gaze out of the car window.
"I'm - cough, so many zombies!" Seeing the things on the road, she was shocked and completely awake, and rubbed her face, "Ah Yao has really worked hard at night." β
Lu Cangyao responded: "Well, it's okay." β
Get out of the car and take out the crystal nucleus of the zombies killed near here first, and then Lu Cangyao washed up.
Holding Lu Cangyao's hot milk in his hand, Yuan Lin asked, "Is this what Yao Yao said, 'it won't be easy'?" It does feel like there are more zombies than I encountered during the day yesterday. β
"The situation in the city should be worse than this. Fortunately, it is already daylight, which will more or less limit some of the zombies' mobility. β
"When you enter the city, it's not impossible that the streets will be full of zombies."
"When it's time to get out of the car and walk, you two pay attention to follow me and don't get separated."
"Try to wear it during the day." Lu Cangyao said with a serious expression.
Hearing Lu Cangyao's solemn advice, Yan Yan also became nervous: "Okay, then let's finish eating and leave." β
No matter how invincible and powerful the land god is in the future, after all, he is just a first-order ability like her now.
Even if there is an ancient martial arts body, it is difficult to beat four hands with two fists.
She had seen too many zombies attacking the city, and the dense crowd of zombies like a tide could not be completely eliminated by one person.
Fortunately, the three cats are a lot more intelligent, they can't run around, and they can also help contain the zombies.
It should alleviate some of the stress, right?
Lu Cangyao said that he was not in a hurry, and said: "Don't worry, this will eat a little more and be full." There may not be a stop at noon. β
He took out ten more crystal nuclei and divided five among the two of them.
"When you feel that your abilities and physical strength are not enough, absorb and replenish them in time."
The two took it and put it in a place where it was easy to take it on their bodies. Without further ado, let's eat.
β¦β¦
Yan Yan drove the car, and his spirit was highly nervous along the way, there were really more and more zombies, and the ominous premonition in his heart became more and more aggravated.
Those who could avoid it were all accelerated by Yan Yan, and those who couldn't avoid it were also killed remotely by Lu Cangyao.
Lu Cangyao was in the co-pilot, holding the crystal nucleus in his hand, and he was not slow to replenish the energy that was consumed last night.
Tongjiang City entrance intersection.
The whole city of Tongjiang seems to be shrouded in a haze, and the early morning sun cannot bring people the slightest warmth.
From here, you can see a lot of cars with broken windows, deformed and dented bodies, and bloodstains in front of you.
You can't see a single living person in sight, all zombies are sparsely walking.
The ones that Lu Cangyao killed along the way basically ran out here.
There was a dead silence.
Yan Yan was also stunned for two seconds, then turned his head to look at Lu Cangyao and said, "Shall we get out of the car and walk now, or drive a little more?" β
Yuan Lin also took his eyes off the bleak scene in front of him and closed his eyes.
When I opened my eyes again, my eyes, which were always full of gentle smiles, became cold, like a tight sword about to be unsheathed.
Lu Cangyao said decisively: "Get out of the car directly, Yan Yan put the car away." β
When you get out of the car, you really come into contact with the stagnant atmosphere outside and the rancid smell that can't be dissipated, and watch the zombies wandering around the neighborhood turn their heads and approach you quickly, only to understand how oppressive this is.
Yuan Lin couldn't imagine what kind of tragedy would be in the city.
I feel even more sorry for Lu Cangyao, his sister, who has been alone for six years, facing enemies who are many times stronger than this every day.
How hard and exhausting it should be for a person to prop up a base and protect the peace of the party.
took out his knife from the space and handed it to Yuan Lin, Lu Cangyao patted him on the shoulder: "Don't think about it, don't you know what kind of person I am?" β
"There aren't many zombies here, let you follow me to get familiar with the rhythm first, and then go deeper after cleaning up here."
Yuan Lin relaxed slightly, and quickly adjusted the sleeves and trousers to attack more neatly.
Yan Yan put away the car, took out the same long knife and held it in her hand, and the three cats were ready to attack beside her.
Lu Cangyao looked ahead, squinted, and slid out a wholesale steel pipe in her hand, she still likes to open the way violently, and she can also save abilities in case of emergency.
Leaning forward slightly, the hair tied into a ponytail was lightly raised, and he quickly said the division of labor: "Ah Yuan and Yan Yan, follow me on the left and right respectively, Lightning and Xiaohua are also on the left and right, ready to create attack opportunities for them at any time, Xiaopang is ready to 'substitute', don't hesitate when it is time to use it." β
"Alright, kill with me!"
"Meow!"
Lu Cangyao's figure was like an arrow from the string, and he rushed out in an instant, and at the same time raised his arm, and when he passed by the oncoming zombies, he smashed it down, and when the zombie's head exploded, he kicked sideways, throwing it into the group of zombies that came one after another.
With such repeated movements, four of them have been killed in an instant.
The next reaction was lightning and Xiaohua, the two cats were really like a lightning bolt and a gust of wind, one left and one right, kicking up the ground like a rainbow, jumping around on the heads of many zombies, popping out claws with abilities from time to time, scratching their eyebrows.
Yuan Lin had also practiced a little, and he was not used to it at first, but after a few times, he was able to steadily cut off the zombie's head with the help of lightning.
Yan Yan was running his abilities, thinking of some things he had learned inexplicably after the epiphany, and planned to give it a try.
A green glow covered the blade of the knife and slashed at the neck of a short zombie.
