Volume 1 The Endless Wilderness Section 149 Confrontation
Chen Xing's scalp became more and more painful, and goosebumps appeared all over his body. Instinctively driven, he picked up his gun and injected psionic energy into the bullets in the chamber.
"Rustling ......"
The sound of small footsteps came from far to near, and stopped at the door.
For a while, Chen Xing's heart hung to his throat, and cold sweat broke out in his palms.
There are two things that can be determined now. One, he is by no means an opponent of creatures outside the door, and the perception of danger has never misjudged; Two, there is only one exit here, and he has nowhere to run.
"What bad luck!" He couldn't help but curse in his heart.
Suddenly, a chill hit, the temperature around him dropped sharply, a blue glimmer appeared outside the door, and then a looming ice shield appeared in front of him. Behind the ice shield stood a young man in a black dress, his gaze cold and calm.
The moment he saw Roy, Chen Xing frowned and almost pulled the trigger. Roy had already murdered him before, and when they met here, there was no one around, just afraid that the other party would take the opportunity to kill him. Fortunately, he is now wrapped from head to toe, and as long as he doesn't open his mouth, the other party won't recognize him.
He slowed his breathing, resisted the urge to shoot, maintained an aiming stance, and waited for the other to leave.
"Who?" Roy asked, his voice emotionless.
Chen Xing didn't speak, nor did he change his movements, just looked at the other party quietly. He can't open his mouth, and when he does, his identity will be revealed. These children may be arrogant, but they are not fools.
Seeing that he didn't move, Roy didn't make the next move, and the two confronted each other like this. As the minutes passed, the atmosphere became more and more tense, as if the slightest disturbance would detonate a life-and-death struggle.
In Chen Xing's spiritual sea, the trio's runes were blooming with dazzling light, and they were at the critical point of exploding.
After an unknown amount of time, Roy slowly retreated and finally disappeared into the darkness. The tingling sensation on his scalp gradually eased, and Chen Xing exhaled a long breath. If he did, he only had one shot, and he wasn't sure how much power he would have left after the bullet shattered the ice shield. The other party can take the initiative to retreat, which is the best result.
After making sure that the other party was far away, Chen Xing came to the door of the next room again, picked up the assault rifle, grabbed the wheel on the door with both hands, and twisted it vigorously.
"Crunch ......"
The roulette wheel made a screeching grinding sound, rust kept falling through the cracks, and with a "clang", the iron door shook and slowly opened.
The flashlight shone in, and it was empty. Sweeping left and right, there was a corpse leaning against it in the corner. Chen Xing picked up the gun, aimed at the corpse's head, and pulled the trigger.
"Da Da Da!"
The fire flickered, and the corpse's head exploded. Chen Xing pressed down the muzzle of the gun and moved over. The corpse was completely dry and shattered at the touch of it. The beam of light shines up, reflecting the bright light of the stars.
There's something!
Chen Xing half-squatted down and found a fountain pen in the dry bones.
[Diamond-encrusted fountain pen (brand: Sally), pre-cataclysmic craft, collectible, unidentified]
[Market Valuation: 2000~?] Gold Coin (Orchid Town) 2000~? Gold (Dragonstone)]
Seeing the valuation, Chen Xing couldn't help grinning, wiped it on his arm, and put it in his jacket pocket. Then he found a gold watch and a notebook among the dry bones.
[Gold watch set with diamonds (brand: Emerald Dragon), pre-cataclysmic craftsmanship, collectible, unidentified]
[Market Valuation: 1500~?] Gold Coin (Orchid Town) 1500~? Gold (Dragonstone)]
The notes were small, only the size of a palm, and not decayed. When you open it, the words on it are densely packed, and there are some incomprehensible symbols and patterns, which should be the researcher's portable notes.
Chen Xing went straight to the end.
"Dr2242-01-07, today, my cognition has been refreshed, and the laws of the former sages seem to be rewritten. Will I be another Renard? ”
"Dr2242-01-21, despite the catastrophe, I still can't believe that there is such a thing in the world. Is it a creation of the gods, or is it another branch of technology, and how does it work? ”
"Dr2242-01-26, tomorrow will be the beginning of an era, and I am one of the witnesses."
The date points to the end of January of Dr2242, and it was during this time that the last journal ended. It is conceivable that they conducted an experiment on "antiquities", and then the experiment failed, and the entire survival center died.
It seems that this "antiquity" is very dangerous. Chen Xing hesitated, but still put away his things and continued to explore. As the saying goes, wealth is sought in danger, and money is taken in fire. If you want to make money, you can't cherish life too much. Recently, he has been overwhelmed by this group of children of the family, in the final analysis, because of poverty.
Others have a family backing, but he doesn't. Crossing here, alone, without relatives, if you want to become stronger, you can only rely on yourself, you can only rely on your hard work!
He has already made up his mind that even if he dies, he will die on the road to the strong. Even if it's an ant, it's an ant that wants to climb to the top. Even if he dies, he has no regrets.
"Bang!"
I opened the next iron door and was about to look inside, when suddenly there was a dull crashing sound from behind. He quickly shrank back, warily watching the way from which he came.
The sound seemed to come from a long distance, and he hesitated for a few seconds before walking in the direction of the sound with his gun in hand. I don't know what danger is in the newly opened room, and it's easy to be attacked by the enemy if you stay here.
Passing through several rooms, he heard the crash again. After walking around the passage for a short time, the voice became clearer and clearer, as if someone was fighting.
Turning a corner, a tall man was fighting a group of living corpses. Chen Xing recognized it at a glance, that person was Zhang Meng.
"Who's there!"
Zhang Meng picked up a living corpse beside him and smashed it towards Chen Xing. Chen Xing flashed backwards, avoiding the living corpse, and at the same time stepped on it, breaking the neck of the living corpse. Zhang Meng turned around and rushed towards him, and with a press of his gun, a shuttle of bullets swept the ground and burst into bright sparks. His meaning was very clear, asking the other party not to come.
Zhang Meng's body froze and stopped. Several living corpses chased after him from behind, Zhang Meng hesitated for a moment, turned around and went to fight the living corpses.
Chen Xing watched from the sidelines until Zhang Meng finished beating the living corpse, and the two looked at each other for a while and left in the opposite direction. The two sides reached an agreement in silence that the river water would not interfere with the well water.
Back in the previous room, several earthy yellow living corpses were wandering aimlessly.
"Wow!"
Finding Chen Xing, the living corpses stretched out their hands and pounced.
Chen Xing quickly poured the spiritual energy into the bullets, fired three bursts, and knocked the nearest living corpse backwards, and at the same time pulled out the reinforced silver star on his back waist and shot at the back of several living corpses.
The Assault Rifle has too long to charge, and the bullets are not as powerful as the Enhanced Silver Star.
"Bang bang bang!"
The living corpses were beaten to the ground and tried to get up and continue the attack. The vitality of the earthy yellow living corpse is extremely strong, and even if the gun and gun shoot the head, it will take more than ten hits.
A moment later, half of the bullets on Chen Xing's body were gone, and several living corpses fell to the ground. He pulled out his dagger, pried open the back of the living corpse's head, and removed several crystals. He wiped the blood from his pants and headed for the next room.
