Chapter 385: The Plague of "Gods" (Part II)
"They...... Gone, right? The street was silent again, and the little boy, who was tightly held in his mother's arms, finally couldn't help but lower his voice and asked softly.
"Shhhh The girl who was huddled aside hurriedly reached out and covered the little boy's mouth.
The girl turned around, looked at the few people hiding beside her, and lowered her voice to the extreme: "Follow me, and it will be over when we reach the safe house." ”
The little ruffian at the back of the "safe house can really ......" wanted to be habitually poor, but when his gaze swept over the horn above the girl's head, he swallowed the remaining half of the sentence back into his stomach.
He knew what this absolutely inhuman, mythical "unicorn" characteristic was—the symbol of the transcendent, and in the present absolutely unnatural catastrophe, only such an inhuman presence could give them a little security.
He Yuyao sighed in an inaudible voice, in the past few days of collection, she has not seen survivors who oppose her and doubt the existence of the safe house, at first she was still trying to persuade as many people as possible to follow her, but now all she can do is do her best.
In short, she never saw the survivors who insisted on hiding in her corner, and occasionally passed by the hiding places of those people, and only a few empty houses remained.
Thinking about the way the "intested" preyed, she didn't want to know what happened to those people.
Yes, the "infected" of this plague.
It was a plague, a plague beyond what everyone had originally imagined.
The Su family and the Ampeseta family all paid attention to the meeting where the Lamp Shadow family invited the leaders of various countries, but they didn't expect that the impact of this meeting would be so terrifying.
He Yuyao is one of the people in charge of this area, and she barely restored the truth of the incident from various intelligence fragments before and after the outbreak of the plague - the people who were invited to the meeting all died after the meeting, to be precise, the inner part of their bodies was replaced with some kind of absolutely inhuman existence.
Their eyes flashed with golden light, and the passers-by who passed by them were also in confusion, in their pupils
The same golden glow grows - they have been infected by an unknown path, and they have become a member of the "plague", spreading the strange golden light farther away.
They are like the source of the plague, gradually projecting the disaster in all directions as they walk.
It is true that almost as soon as those in attendance leave the venue, the officials of humanity and the two transcendent families realize that something is wrong. However, everything is the same as the plan of the Shadow of the Light, the prominent status of these people made everyone jealous, and they failed to solve the hidden danger in the first place - by the time they finally realized the seriousness of the matter, it was already too late.
More and more infected people have become new sources of infection, so that this plague belonging to the "gods" has spread with unstoppable power, and it is no longer meaningful to get rid of the first few infected people.
Whether it was innocent passers-by or the army trying to stop them, they were all powerless before the plague, or even just a meeting of eyes, and the strange golden light grew out of their eyes like a parasite.
Even most of the transcendents are exceptions.
He Yuyao had already lost contact with most of the people who could connect with him, and he couldn't tell if those people had died or become one of the huge number of infected people.
However, there are a few exceptions—a few people, even if they meet the eyes of the infected and pass by, are unharmed, unaffected by the strange golden light.
However, almost all of these people who are immune to the plague are scattered in the vast sea of people, and they can't find any connection with each other, and they can't find any common ground, and He Yuyao can only classify these immune people, including herself, as special in physique.
It's a plague that belongs to the gods, but I don't know what the pathogen is...... Or rather, there were no pathogens at all, because the form of the plague was closer to a spiritual contamination on a grand scale that could be controlled by some unknown being.
He Yuyao sighed silently, continued to raise his vigilance, and led everyone to grope forward little by little.
"Help—"
"Don't, don't,
Don't, don't, don't, don't, don't! ”
"Don't blame you, monster!"
A series of screams that almost burst their throats came from the street corner ahead, startling the group that was moving forward in silence.
He Yuyao raised her hand to stop the team from moving forward, she turned her head and gently pressed her index finger to her lips, signaling everyone to remain absolutely quiet.
A faint glow flickered on the horn above her head, and she lowered her body like a small beast in the jungle and slowly moved forward, even the scraping sound of her feet touching the ground was reduced to the extreme.
Although everyone knows that after a certain time in the previous few days, those infected who had not committed any crime except to advance and infect more people suddenly became extremely aggressive, and began to search for immunized people everywhere, and the immunized ones they captured were ...... His whereabouts have not been known since.
This was the first time He Yuyao had had the opportunity to witness the infected besieging the immune, and she felt that she needed to figure out - how did those monsters hunt?
He Yuyao slowly stretched out the horns above her head, and her perception also spread, even without her eyes, she could see very clearly - on the other side of the street, countless infected people with weird smiles surrounded three or four immunized people, the immunized ones were frightened or crying, their stomachs were shriveled, and the backpacks scattered under their feet were full of things.
It seems to be a bunch of unlucky people who came out to look for things only to be found by the infected.
He Yuyao simply counted the number of infected people on the street, and quickly gave up trying to save them. She wasn't a transcendent person who was good at fighting, but she just had a slight advantage in detection, and she could barely deal with the infected within five of them, but the number in front of her was ...... It's a bit too exaggerated, even if it's just exposed to those who are infected, you will definitely die.
She's not a bad person, and she'll grieve for strangers she can't save anymore, but at this moment she's definitely not going to risk her own lives and the lives of all the survivors behind her to save them.
"I'm sorry......" said silently in her heart, He Yuyao focused her attention on those infected, this time she had to figure it out...... The way the infected person eats.
