Chapter 35: A Strange Shadow
The whole world moved because of the end of the black rain, breaking the silence of four months, the communication facilities in the major theaters were repairing in full force, the Taya Legion was moving rapidly, and the energy of the central theater was rolling, all of which indicated that the war was about to start again.
The southern and northern theaters are still silent, comfortable, white icebergs towering, there is ice, water, no animals, no black rain erosion, in this world where seeing white is a luxury, there are two such areas to say that it is not an exaggeration to say that "pure land".
The Southern Theater of Operations is located near the South Pole of the Earth, surrounded by bottomless trenches, like a lonely boat, quietly floating on the black ocean, covered by thick ice, people build various facilities under the ice, live here, the population here is not large, the armed are very small, far less dense and powerful than the Eastern and Western Theater of Operations, since the catastrophe came, there has never been war here, because it is cold here, extremely cold, as if the air will be frozen.
Crunch, crunch, like the sound of grinding teeth in sleep, sounded on the ice one after another, a person appeared on the thick ice in the southern theater of operations, wearing a thin dark suit, under the extreme cold that the air would freeze, he actually did not show a trace of cold, looked up ahead, exhaled, a breath of hot air exhaled, in the blue eyes, the heat instantly condensed into ice flowers in the air and was blown away by the cold wind, dissipated. The corners of his mouth rose slightly, he raised his feet and continued to walk forward, crunch, crunch, as he walked, more figures appeared, actually... Exactly the same as him, thousands.
On this day, a large amount of blood oozed from under the ice surface of the southern theater of operations, like a blood-colored lotus flower, blooming proudly.
Day turned into night, in the dark night, countless blank figures were still turning irregular circles on the ravine-covered plains, one circle, two circles, as if there was never an end, among the countless figures, some figures seemed to be dissipating at any time, some were becoming more and more condensed, and even the outline expression on the face was clearly visible, at this time a figure stopped, as if he felt something, a flash of light flashed in his empty eyes, an armored car ran directly over his body, and the tail red light flashed into the distance. The figure still stood dumbfounded, turning his head to look at the red dot that had almost disappeared, and his expression was thoughtful, as if he was thinking about why the iron worm ran so fast and disappeared in a blink of an eye. For a long time, it didn't seem to find the answer it wanted, and continued to lower its head and turn around in an endless circle, one circle, two circles...
"These ghost things, I have never encountered them before, they have appeared at night in the past three days, and they are just turning there, and they can't be killed when they collide." A whining rang out inside the armored car, a warrior in a black combat suit with a spear in his arms that was a head taller than he was sitting on.
"Xiao Liu, you can be content, let this ghost thing turn around if it likes to turn, and it won't attack us anyway, such a quiet night, with their company, won't it reduce a lot of loneliness?" Another fighter, also dressed in a black combat uniform, teased.
They are a ten-person reconnaissance team that rushed to District 13, and it has been two days and three nights since they set off, and they have rushed to District 13 without stopping all the way, if it weren't for Li Ruonan's female status, they might have to be in the car.
On the first night of coming out, these black shadows suddenly appeared from the ground, which really frightened Makino and these soldiers, the dense figures kept turning in circles, and ordinary soldiers might faint directly, Rao was so at a loss for the first time that the soldiers driving the armor were at a loss, and asked Li Ruonan with a trembling voice: "Team... What about the captain? ”
Li Ruonan only said coldly, "Run over!" And he never spoke again.
How many figures have been run over in these three nights, Makino really didn't count it with his fingers, and slowly the soldiers found from the night vision images that the figures that ran over were all illusory, and they still continued to turn in their own circles, as if they were not in the same world, and the relaxed fighters started seminars and debates, and finally came to the conclusion that "ghosts." ”
"Alas, Muye, we rarely had contact with each other in the fortress before, but they all called you Muhu, are you really bluffing?" The soldier holding the spear is called Liu Xu, the observer of the reconnaissance team, and also a sniper, the gun in his hand is specially customized, which can break the protective shield of the lizard, and the lethality is extremely great.
"Shepherd?" Makino was stunned for a moment, and then said embarrassedly: "It's all raised by the warriors, and the tiger is the king of the mountain, which is a bit exaggerated." ”
Hahaha! All the fighters burst out laughing, and Li Ruonan also blocked his mouth with his hand. In the past few days, these warriors have taken turns to joke with Makino, and Makino doesn't care, but enjoys it, he can feel it, he is quickly integrating into them and becoming their partner, this feeling is what he has been longing for, except for Chubby and Razor, only these fighters in front of him give him such feelings.
"It's a good feeling." Makino looked at these unconcealed smiling faces and thought to himself.
Boom! Suddenly, the armored car seemed to have hit something, the driving warrior braked suddenly, the armored car stopped instantly, a strong light shot forward, and a black shadow slowly stood up from the ground, looking at the monster with two eyes shining with a blank expression.
"What the hell? Isn't it illusory? "Looking at the figures outside, all the fighters have the same idea.
"Don't move, I'll go out and have a look." Li Ruonan said a word, and went to push the door of the armored car.
"I'll go, I don't need your machete to kill chickens." Makino's figure flashed, and he got out of the armored car first.
Li Ruonan was stunned for a moment, and then glanced at the soldiers who were snickering with a gloomy face.
This glance was like nine cold ice, instantly freezing the expressions of the warriors on their faces, and then turning their heads to look at the situation outside on the night vision goggles at the same time.
Makino got out of the car and shook under his feet, and appeared in front of the car in the blink of an eye, his eyes staring at the black shadow in front of him,
"What is this?" Makino was taken aback.
The headlights shone on the face of the black shadow, it was an Oriental face, very young, with a combat uniform in the Eastern Theater of Operations, which was very badly damaged, and the black hole on the chest reflected the scorched and shiny ground in the distance under the illumination of the light, and the eyes were empty without a trace of brilliance.
It seems that because Makino has blocked some of the lights, it has attracted its attention, and its empty eyes have gradually appeared, which are greedy and longing eyes. It lifted its feet and walked towards Makino step by step, the soles of its feet fell to the ground without making any sound, as if it was walking in the air, it seemed to be slow, but it reached Makino in a few steps, and raised its hand to grab Makino.
The speed of this grasp was amazing, like a gale, directly appeared in Makino's chest, Makino was startled, his body shook under his feet, and he jumped four meters away, narrowly avoiding this fast and windy grasp, Makino looked at the black shadow solemnly, and the slight pain in his chest made him realize that this was not an illusion but a real creature.
What is it? The speed is fast, and it seems that the strength is not weak, if he hadn't dodged just now, Makino could be sure that there would be two swarthy holes in his chest like the black shadow, and after calming down, Makino began to seriously guard against the black shadow's every move.
The black shadow grabbed the air and did not continue the pursuit, but looked at its hands and feet in confusion, and then raised its head to look at Makino not far away, as if thinking about something, and then its next move made Makino's hair stand on end.
I saw its right hand raised and grabbed at the empty back, behind the darkness, a long object slowly pulled out with its right hand, and when all appeared in Makino's eyes, Makino finally saw what this long object was? It was a standard war knife as black as ink, the standard war knife of the Eastern Theater of Operations, and a six-character was engraved on the body of the knife.
"What the hell is this?" Makino screamed in fear, his feet shook again, and he retreated more than ten meters, his eyes looking at the black shadow in horror.
At this time, the reaction in the armored car was the same as Makino's, or even more exaggerated, they saw it better than Makino, there was nothing behind the black shadow, but it pulled out a knife out of thin air, what is the situation?
"Stupid, put on your mask mask!" Li Ruonan's hurried voice sounded.
Hearing this, Makino reached out to get the protective mask, and then he was stunned, then quickly put the mask on, and beckoned to the black shadow, and Makino's arrogant voice came into the armored car: "Come on!" Be happy! ”
