Chapter 39: The Fog Grows
Not long after entering Y City, Lin Lang and the three of them encountered a team of survivors who had fled.
After taking action to solve the small wave of zombies that were chasing them, Lin Lang secretly estimated in his heart that although these miscellaneous soldiers had lifted the berserk state, their overall strength was still much stronger than in the first chapter, and he immediately frowned and looked at the stainless steel long knives in the hands of the survivors, and asked, "You came out of the rest area?" ”
Several young people who had escaped death nodded hurriedly, and one of them said, "This big brother, you don't want to go over there, do you?" It's surrounded by zombies now, and you can't get in! ”
"What about the people in the lounge? Have you seen two...... A young man who looks much stronger than everyone else? From N471. Lin Lang thought about it, and could only describe Xu Rui and the others like this.
"I've seen it, I've seen it! You mean Brother Xu and Brother Duanmu, they took the people who rushed out to Baile City, saying that they wanted to settle down there temporarily, big brother, are you also from N471? ”
Lin Lang turned his inquiring gaze to Du Shanshan, Du Shanshan understood in seconds, nodded and said, "I know that place!" ”
"Let's go."
The three of them said they would leave, leaving a few survivors messy in the wind on the spot, looking at the back of the car and shouting: "Big brother, wait, take us!" ”
……
Coming to the east gate of Baile City, Du Shanshan suddenly stepped on the brakes and shouted in panic: "There is a boss!" ”
Lin Lang narrowed his eyes and admonished, "That's not a boss, it's an elite monster." You two hide in the car first, and wait for me to wave you over!" ”
He pushed the car door down, his right arm swelled rapidly, and he raised his hand to shoot two bloody bullets at the black-scaled zombie wandering in front of him, and the blood-colored light flame was striking in the dark night.
The black-scaled zombies and a few miscellaneous soldiers were attracted by him, and they roared and pounced, Lin Lang bypassed the black-scaled zombies and cleaned up a few miscellaneous soldiers first, and then stepped forward to fight with the black-scaled zombies.
After the end of the berserk period, the strength of the black-scaled zombie also decreased slightly, and Lin Lang smashed it with all his strength, which could already shatter its scale armor, and it could slowly grind it to death without opening the blood explosion.
And not long after, just as the battle was nearing the end, a cyan air arrow suddenly flew in, shot into the eye socket of the black-scaled zombie, and exploded, and the black-scaled zombie stiffened for a moment and fell to the ground with a bang.
Lin Lang was not surprised, turned his head to look, and sure enough, Duanmu and Xu Rui greeted him surrounded by several survivors.
"How did you come to Y City? How about over there in H City? Xu Rui ran to the front and asked by the arm.
Lin Lang sighed, and said in a heavy tone: "It's the same as here, the corpse tide is overwhelming, and there are still many people trapped in the rest area when I leave, and I don't know if I can escape now." ”
Duanmu asked out loud, "What about Mr. Su?" ”
Speaking of this, Lin Lang showed a little shame on his face, and said helplessly: "Boss Su and Sister Su were captured by the puppet queen, but they are not in danger for the time being, the puppet queen and I put forward a condition, asking me to go to the mother nest to steal something for her, and when I get it, I will let Boss Su and them leave." ”
Xu Rui and Lin Lang looked at each other, Xu Rui couldn't help but say, "She doesn't dare to go herself, wouldn't it be more dangerous to let you go?" So what are you going to do? ”
"Originally, I was going to find you two to go to the brood to find out the situation first, but you all heard the tip you just posted, right?"
After the two nodded, Lin Lang touched his chin and muttered: "I didn't expect that the world's limited edition of 38 extraordinary supplies would appear in H City, or a large-scale announcement, H City will become the eye of the storm now." I have a hunch that transcendent items are definitely not just as simple as being of the same level, and the matter of the brood must be put aside first, let's go to the supply drop point first, and it would be great if we could get the supplies before the arrival of the strong people in other areas. ”
Duanmu naturally had no opinion on this proposal, Xu Rui hesitated for a moment, turned his head to look at the few survivors who came out with them, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay!" Wait a minute, I'll go and tell them we'll go!" ”
"Hmm."
Xu Rui's face was a little unbearable, and he walked over to those people and whispered a few words, and Lin Lang heard someone say loudly:
"Brother Xu, you can't go!"
"What are we going to do when you're gone?"
"Stay, Brother Xu, please, can't you stay for a while longer?"
There was both panic and pleading between these people's words, as well as a bit of coercion, and Lin Lang frowned slightly when he heard it.
He was really afraid that Xu Rui's heart would soften, and he would say "You go first, I'll go to you in two days."
But fortunately, although Xu Rui is kind-hearted, he is not a brainless person, after all, he can still distinguish which is more important, and after explaining a few words, he walked over regardless of the retention of those people.
Back next to the car, Lin Lang knocked on the window glass of the main driver, Du Shanshan rolled down the window and looked at him inquiringly.
"Are you staying in City Y or are you going to come with us?"
Du Shanshan replied a little inexplicably: "Do you think I look like a fool? I finally hugged my thighs, how could I give up halfway! ”
Lin Lang shrugged, went around to the other side and opened the co-pilot door and sat down, and the five turned the car around and drove towards the road.
On the way out of Y City, Lin Lang looked at the huge crystal clusters towering outside the car window, and noticed that these red crystals were indeed diffusing some faint red substances into the air, which were not very obvious during the day, and a slight red light could be seen at night, covering the sky hazy and ethereal.
He suddenly spoke: "Have you noticed, all along, only us survivors call zombies zombies, but in the rest area and the prompt sound, we all call them 'prey'. ”
Several people in the car were a little confused by his words, and after a while, Xu Rui asked rhetorically, "What do you want to say?" ”
Lin Lang looked out the window and said the guess in his heart: "There is another point, the zombies in the film and television dramas will be infected if they bite normal people, and the bitten people will also become zombies. ”
Du Shanshan shook her head and said: "This is really not, I have seen a lot of zombie bites, just tear off a piece of flesh, bandage it and stop the bleeding, and it will be fine." ”
Lin Lang said: "So, these zombies are not the 'zombies' we are familiar with. I've been wondering what the hell is the master behind all this change? Why divide humanity into two parts and kill each other? Why did you come up with things like hunter levels and rare items? Even afraid that we wouldn't be able to defeat the zombies at first, he also thoughtfully put free supplies for us, trying to ask us to fight for them. ”
Xu Rui guessed: "It sounds a bit like a survival game...... Maybe it's a reality show? The purpose of an alien force is to watch it live and entertain them? ”
Lin Lang shrugged his shoulders and sighed, "Although it sounds nonsense, it can barely be considered...... If you want to know the real answer, you will probably have to keep getting stronger until you are strong enough to break the rules of this game, and then you can get a glimpse of the truth behind it. ”
The other four people in the car were silent, but they all felt that the prospect depicted by these words was a little too distant.
