Following the gunshot, Robot 5 ran to the edge of the woodland, swept between the thick trunks of two searchlight beams, and the white light locked onto a pine tree that was more than half a man's thickness. Two slightly trembling human legs were exposed from behind the thick trunk, and Robot 5 held the obstacle breaker in his hand and circled around the side of the trunk.

The man in the gas station overalls among the survivors sat on the ground trembling with his back to the trunk of a tree and a police pistol in his hand. Wang Zhiyuan took over the operation of the robot No. 5 and went up, picked up the pistol and examined the corpse, and found that there was a wound similar to the mouth of a cup in the left shoulder socket, and streams of pus were gushing out of the wound.

As soon as a nine-millimeter magazine was found from the deceased's trouser pocket, a lump of green mucus suddenly fell on the deceased's hair, and Wang Zhiyuan immediately manipulated the robot No. 5 to flash backwards. A diamond-shaped flat worm stabbed the wound of the deceased with his pointed tubular mouthparts, and as if no one was around, he began to suck the man whose muscles were gradually melting.

In less than ten minutes, the man's face was already abnormally swollen like a drowned corpse, and his facial features slowly melted, turning into the appearance of a drop fish. The worm's mouthparts trembled and sucked, and the deceased's body was like a leaky inflatable doll, and soon his head tilted towards his left shoulder, which had shrunk into a ball. Immediately ordered Robot 5 to pick up the obstacle breaker hammer and smash the head of the smashed flat worm, and smashed the chest cavity with another hammer, and blood-red pus mixed with white flocculent flowed all over the body of the deceased.

Wang Zhiyuan immediately asked Robot 5 to return to the convoy, and told the remaining survivors not to make any sound and lights, thinking: "Such a large forest, who knows how many insects there are~ It's better not to provoke~"

Xia Lingyun looked at the image sent back by Robot 5 and said, "This should be some kind of bug that sucks plant juice, why did it start eating people." Wang Zhiyuan looked at the video and said: "Who knows~ I've never seen a cat or a dog or mouse for so long, these insects have suddenly increased in size thousands of times, and they have to eat enough things that grow so big." ”

I got used to seeing this kind of thing a lot, and continued to sleep until dawn, and when I got up, I found that there were several scorpion centipedes that had been killed by Robot 5 with an obstacle breaker at night next to the survivor's car.

After washing up in a daze, Wang Zhiyuan heard someone slap on the side door of the armored RV again, put on his equipment and opened the door to see a family of three driving a small truck standing outside the door.

looked at an old lady who was already seventy or eighty, pointed to Wang Zhiyuan and said: "Those two people are hungry, they just went to the forest to pick up some pine towers and mushrooms, and the people died, and there were a few big insects outside the car at night and almost didn't eat them." ”

Without waiting for Wang Zhiyuan to speak, the old lady sat down on the ground and cried: "It's all to blame you cold-blooded and ruthless~ There is so much food and I don't give some out for everyone, and such a big armored car is so dangerous at night that people don't let people go in and hide." ”

Wang Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment and said to Xia Lingyun beside him: "Look I'm not wrong~ Let's go too~" Ignoring the old lady on the ground, she opened the tail hatch of the E100 heavy tank and entered the cockpit.

Turn on the bridge screen and ask, "Cortana ~ What about the location of the re-analyzed fall point?" Cortana enlarged the electronic map and marked the small green circle and said: "Master Chief ~ Move according to the action path you specified earlier, and you should find something along the way." In addition, to the east of Chang'an City, a distance of about 200 kilometers, there is a large Zerg fall point, which is much larger than the Zerg nest we encountered before. ”

Wang Zhiyuan scratched the back of his head and said: "This is trouble~ It seems that the plan to cross the Yangtze River all the way east will not work, forget that the plan can't catch up with the changes, it would be good to get to Tonggang Town smoothly tonight." Xia Lingyun looked at the tablet and said, "Everything is normal around, I didn't find anything suspicious, let's go." ”

The old lady and her group of three people saw that Wang Zhiyuan ignored them, so they hurriedly ran to the gas station van, loaded the large bags of bedding and other small bags into the pickup truck, and followed the convoy not far away. Xia Lingyun held a bear biscuit in her mouth and asked, "What do you want to do with those people in the back?" ”

Wang Zhiyuan looked at the top-down picture taken by the drone and said, "What if you don't do it?" It's good when they don't exist. "Walking along a country road to the afternoon, suddenly the sky was covered with dark clouds and a light rain began to fall. Xia Lingyun was just about to open the top cover of the turret to take back the drone, Wang Zhiyuan got up and grabbed her and said: "There is a problem with this rain, the drone flies to the back and lets the robot No. 5 recover it to the truck, if it doesn't work, don't want it." ”

Cortana opened the rainwater sampling analysis table on the bridge screen and said: "Rainwater contains a weak amount of radioactive components, and short-term exposure will not cause harm. ”

In less than half an hour, the sky suddenly darkened, the wind blew and thundered, and the light rain instantly turned into a torrential rain. On the left side of the road, along the ridge of different depths, muddy water overflowed the road surface and flowed into the deep ravine on the right side of the road.

Wang Zhiyuan immediately shouted on a loudspeaker outside the car: "All vehicles are moving at full speed, beware of landslides and mudslides." "Lowering the bulldozer blade in front of the tank, the vehicles blocking the road along the way directly crashed into the ravine on the right.

After racing wildly in the wind and rain, he finally drove out of the mountainous section at about six o'clock in the afternoon, and the lightning on the horizon illuminated the ridge in the distance again and again. After going up a big slope and opening up the mountain pass, Cortana zoomed in on the picture of a river bend at the bottom of the mountain and said: "Master Chief~ It should be Tonggang Town." "After a sharp bolt of lightning, a towering concentrator on the edge of the river bend was illuminated.

Xia Lingyun pointed to the black place on the east side of the river bay and said: "That should be Tonggang Town, which used to be a copper mine, and then slowly became a small town that makes a living from mining." It is said that mining production has been out of stock in recent years, and the town has gradually lost its former prosperity. ”

Wang Zhiyuan nodded and said: "There are a lot of towns like this in our northwest, isn't Yumen City like that~ After the oil reserves were exhausted, the entire city was abandoned." ”

The ancients said that it was really not deceiving people to run a dead horse on Wangshan, and it took more than two hours to reach the town in front of them. Entering the dilapidated town, there was not a single decent car to be seen on the narrow road except for a few muck trucks. Wang Zhiyuan was still looking for a suitable place, and the pickup truck behind the convoy suddenly exploded, and Wang Zhiyuan had just gotten into the turret gondola.

The hull of the car slammed into the back of the head against the shell rack in the aft compartment of the turret. Wang Zhiyuan endured the pain in his neck and shouted: "Cortana turns on the automatic mode of all weapons, and the laser countermeasure system is deployed to prepare for the attack." ”
