Chapter 535: Criminals
Take Peng Ling as an example, in the early days of the catastrophe, the survivors of the family took care of each other, and although the quality of life was also not high, normal survival materials could still be obtained.
But the good times didn't last long, and in the process of fleeing again and again, the survivors of the family were scattered, and the dead died, and in the end she was left alone.
Even if he became an evolutionary later, he still hid and couldn't eat, because it was the fourth month after the outbreak of the cataclysm, and although he had a relatively strong ability to protect himself, he sadly found that whether it was a supermarket or a grain and oil store, everything that could be eaten had either been swept away by other survivors, or it was moldy and spoiled, or it became the food of mutant beasts.
That is, after forming a small team with Yang Li's sisters and brothers recently, she was able to have two meals of gruel a day, and even she couldn't remember when she was full for the last time.
"What are your plans for the future?" Lin Xiao looked at Peng Ling, who was gobbling up, and was inevitably a little sad in his heart, compressed biscuits can be eaten so with relish, how long has this girl not eaten enough?
"From now on? Take it one step at a time! I think you're pretty pleasing to the eye, why don't we make do with it? Peng Ling said inarticulate while chewing on the compressed biscuits.
Lin Xiao is full of black lines, what do you mean to look at me is quite pleasing to the eye, can I make do with it? This Nima.
"Well, don't get me wrong, I mean live together!" Peng Ling saw Lin Xiao's strange face, and hurriedly opened her mouth to explain, but as soon as she said this, she couldn't help but turn red, and it seemed that it was better not to explain.
"No, I didn't mean that, I mean. Belch. ”
In a panic, Peng Ling finally choked on the dry compressed biscuits, Lin Xiao saw her face flushed, and couldn't help but laugh, took out the kettle from her bag and handed it over: "Drink less, I have this pot left, distilled water filtered from the well water." ”
took a sip of the kettle, Peng Ling's heart was even more moved, she was also struggling in the last days, she naturally knew how precious food and water were, especially distilled water like Lin Xiao.
Swallowing the compressed biscuits in her throat, Peng Ling was almost full, and reluctantly wrapped the remaining half of the compressed biscuits, and handed it to Lin Xiao with the kettle: "Thank you, you are a good person!" ”
it! Lin Xiao has an urge to beat people, Lao Tzu saved your life, and gave you food and drink, you will send me a good person card when you are done? What does it mean?
However, seeing the expression of gratitude on Peng Ling's face, well, Lin Xiao decided not to care about these details.
"I know a security headquarters, do you want to go over and have a look? It's easy to support yourself with your strength, and it's much safer to join HQ than if you were out in the field! Lin Xiao saw that she was indeed full, and she flickered with a heartfelt look.
But it was okay that he didn't mention the security headquarters, and as soon as he heard him say the security headquarters, Peng Ling's face suddenly changed: "Okay!" You really have ulterior motives! I said give me food for no reason, give me water, and say, sell me to the security headquarters, what benefits can you get? Man, there really isn't a good thing! ”
"I rub?" Lin Xiao finally couldn't help it: "You belong to a dog?" Turning your face faster than turning a book? You think you're made of gold? Can you eat or drink? What benefits can be gained by also selling to the security headquarters. ”
Peng Ling didn't believe Lin Xiao's words at all, she stood up and moved farther away from Lin Xiao, but suddenly remembered that the thing in front of her seemed to be much stronger than her, and the possibility of escape was almost equal to zero, and her face couldn't help but be dead.
At this time, Lin Xiao also saw the problem, the reason why this little girl turned her face when she heard that she said about the security headquarters was probably because she had been cheated by a security headquarters before, right?
Finally, when Lin Xiaoxiao moved with reason, and even swore at the cost of gambling and swearing, Peng Ling was suspicious and told what happened before.
It turned out that it was really as Lin Xiao thought, in the valley less than a hundred kilometers away from the ruins of this city, there was indeed a security headquarters.
Because the main body of the security headquarters is a pre-apocalyptic prison, a large part of the population composition of the headquarters is made up of criminals serving their sentences in prisons.
What's even more bizarre is that because these criminals took advantage of the chaos caused by zombies to steal weapons and ammunition from the prison guards at the beginning of the catastrophe, they are the highest decision-making level of this security headquarters.
According to a certain logic, those who can enter the prison are the masters with bright heads, and after the initial chaos and panic, these guys suddenly realized that the world has entered a new era, without the constraints of **, and without the deterrence of the army and police, they have guns and territory, and they immediately unceremoniously turned over and became masters.
In order to increase the number of slaves, they frantically spray-painted safety zone guidance signs nearby, whether it was abduction or coercion, and got a large number of unlucky survivors from the ruins of many surrounding cities to drive.
They even modeled themselves on the 18th-century Europa region and developed a sound constitution for slavery, completely treating themselves as slave owners.
And Peng Ling is one of the unlucky ghosts who was deceived into it, because of her hot body and good face, she was not thrown into the slave pile, but was chosen by a guy in power, ready to take it back and pamper her.
It's a pity that the goods didn't know that although Peng Ling was mixed in a flock of sheep, she was a she-wolf with fangs! Before he could reveal his hideous face and realize that something was wrong, Peng Ling escaped from the so-called observation room.
It was that encounter that made Peng Ling scoff at any security headquarters, preferring to wander around in the ruins of the city and be hungry rather than join a certain headquarters to get shelter.
"I sympathize with what happened to you, but that doesn't justify your hatred of any headquarters!" Lin Xiao shrugged his shoulders and introduced the system and livelihood infrastructure of the Dark Rock Headquarters one by one, and looked at Peng Ling, who was obviously moved, and continued to flicker: "If you join the Dark Rock Headquarters, your identity is not an ordinary headquarters citizen, you can choose to join the administrative management, or you can choose to join the garrison team, with your ability, if you are not afraid of battle, join the evolutionary team, not only can you get higher treatment, but you can also receive a fixed number of crystals every month!" ”
Peng Ling, who had been listening to it with relish, was suddenly stunned, she caught a new word from Lin Xiao's words, the team of evolutionists!
In the past few months of wandering, she has seen a lot of survivor groups, small groups of a few people, large groups of more than a dozen people, and even large groups of dozens of people, these experiences have made Peng Ling very clear about how rare the number of evolutionaries is in the apocalypse!
And she listened to Lin Xiao's tone, the Dark Rock Headquarters actually has a team of evolutionaries? It's simply it.
"The Darkrock Headquarters you're talking about, is there really a team of evolutionarians? A team made up entirely of evolutionaries? How many people are there? Peng Ling's eyes lit up, as an evolutionary, she had subconsciously distinguished herself from ordinary survivors, in her eyes, only evolutionaries were her own kind, and only by staying with other evolutionaries could she feel that she was still a normal human being.
"The total number of people is about one hundred and ten, but this number will gradually increase, I told you, I have a method that can catalyze ordinary survivors into evolutionaries, but due to the constraints of materials, the number of catalysts in each batch is not too much." Lin Xiao spread his hands and was very helpless, if it weren't for that, why would he take the trouble to fool Peng Ling into joining the Dark Rock Headquarters? In his opinion, Peng Ling's combat effectiveness is not weak, but his mind is too immature.
A hundred and ten evolutionaries? And it's gradually increasing? Batch spawning? Peng Ling felt that the world must be crazy! That's an evolutionary, not a cabbage on the side of the road! Well, well, in these days, Chinese cabbage seems to be more scarce than evolutionary.
"Good! I've decided to join, when are we going? Peng Ling made a decision immediately, although she still didn't fully believe Lin Xiao's words in her heart, but right now. , The gap in strength is obvious, even if she is unwilling to join, if Lin Xiao is strong, she is powerless to resist, right?
Besides, what if it's true? What a chance to get out of the sea of suffering! Be sure to catch it!
"The day after tomorrow at the latest, there is still something to do right now!" Lin Xiao said this, with a weird smile on his face: "If you're full, I'll take you to brush some crystals first!" ”
For Lin Xiao's proposal, Peng Ling naturally would not refuse, she is now a little fond of the zombies wandering the streets, and even in her eyes, those disgusting stinky flesh have become shiny crystals.
What's more, with Lin Xiao's powerful output by his side, even if he walks sideways in this city, he doesn't have to worry about the danger of his life, why not?
In this way, the duo of Lin Xiao and Peng Ling began to sweep the ruins of the city.
They first found a full-fledged Raptor pickup truck in the underground garage of the hotel, not to drive the pickup truck to sweep, but to prepare to deal with the ancient corpse and act as a means of transportation when returning to the mountain city, after all, he was chased by the ancient corpse and ran away before, Lin Xiao didn't want to run another marathon.
After getting the transportation tool, the rest of the things are simple, directly let the omniscient artificial intelligence lock the high-value zombies that have evolved more than five times, just like opening the perspective hanging, Lin Xiao and the others happily walked through the city.
Those ordinary zombies wandering on the street, whether it was zombies that had evolved three or four times, could not bother the two of them at all, because Lin Xiao did not move on the ground at all, but bounced back and forth on the top of the building.
