Chapter 215: Roaming Hollywood

Annoyed and shocked by the failure of the Red Apple Farm mission, John spends less than a second mourning for the dead before reprimanding and interrogating the survivors. Not only did he use brutal means to "squeeze the truth" out of those involved in the operation, but he also did not let go of others who might know the information about the operation.

At 22 o'clock in the night, Lin Zaishan, who was waiting outside John's palace to be interrogated, saw the black cat come out unharmed, while at the same time, the body of a staff member who went before the black cat was carried out by John's guards.

"Send this guy to the kitchen and steam it!" John's characteristic voice came out.

"Thank goodness!" The black cat showed the joy of narrowly escaping, and gloated at the dead acquaintance who was carried to the kitchen, "Dude, it's good that you took most of John's anger, otherwise I would be finished." Good luck going! I'll definitely go to the restaurant tomorrow morning to buy your meat. ”

Lin Zaishan glared at the black cat when he heard this, and the latter laughed softly: "I'm kidding." 1051 You have to be careful, John is still angry, it looks like your mascot is going to be unlucky. ”

"Don't worry." Lin Zaishan strode into the palace.

John sat high in his plush chair, receiving a massage from two sexy maids, and asked the guard next to him with half-closed eyes, "How many people did I kill today?" ”

The guard replied, "Four!" ”

"How many people did I drive crazy today?"

"Three."

"It sounds like I'm merciful, not brutal enough." John said, "Go and bring the fire-breathing weapon, I'll roast the Chinese monkey later." ”

Lin stood with his hands hanging down in the mountain, pretending to be deaf and dumb.

John opened his eyes, stared at Lin Zaishan and asked slowly, "1051, do you consider yourself a living person or a dead person?" ”

Lin Zaishan sneered secretly, and replied respectfully: "Great John, I am worth more to you alive than I die. ”

"Then let me see if you're worth enough to buy your own life."

"John, I suspect that someone has revealed to the Coyotes the route of our Red Apple Manor's operations this time."

"What evidence do you have?" This is the question that John was most concerned about.

Lin Zaishan took out the piece of paper with a route map drawn on the corpse of a coyote team member and handed it to the guard.

John took the paper and looked at it a few times, then asked, "How do I know that you didn't draw this picture yourself?" ”

"John, this kind of paper and pen are very rare these days, and I am unlikely to have them. Besides, I'm only a second-class slave, and I can't know the route beforehand. ”

"I've heard that you behaved unusually heroically when the coyotes attacked and the apple trees were fighting, 1051, did you deliberately hide your strength from me?"

"The more dangerous the environment, the easier it is to burst into potential, and you can consider this as my special ability, and I don't mean to hide it, honorable John."

"Really? Then I'll test it on the spot. John looked left and right. The guards immediately attacked Lin Zaisan with their fire-breathing weapons.

Lin Zaishan dodged the two flames in a leap, and then hid behind a thick pillar.

The guards outflanked the past, but there was no one to see, it turned out that Lin Zaishan had climbed to a high place along the pillar, and he jumped from one pillar to another, attracting the guards to circle back and forth. The guards were all over the house breathing fire, but they couldn't hurt him in the slightest.

"John, not only did I not betray you, but I also saved several of your right-hand men. You treat me like this, aren't you afraid that those people outside will be cold? Who will dare to die for you in the future? Lin Zaishan persuaded while "embarrassed" swimming.

John snorted coldly and motioned for the guards to continue the pursuit. After another 1 minute, John suddenly shouted, "Stop! ”

The guards stopped attacking, and Lin Zaishan jumped back to his original position.

"1051, for the sake of not showing the slightest malice towards me during the whole process, I will take your life. Don't get too excited, though, I have one more task for you to do. If you can do it, I'll see you as your right-hand man, and the place of this stupid Marcus is yours; Otherwise, if the mission fails, you'd better die outside. ”

"Okay, I'm willing to accept the task."

"You come with me." John led Lin Zaishan to one of his offices, stood on a chair, pointed to the map of Los Angeles on the table with a wooden stick in his hand, and said, "I have hired people from the Black Diamond Group at a high price to detect and locate the three strongholds where the Coyote team is most likely to stay. ”

Lin Zaishan noticed the 3 circles on the map at first sight.

"Tell me, 1051, what are the characteristics of these three locations?"

"They're all in the red zone with a lot of corpses." Lin Zaishan replied: "The surrounding buildings are dense and the roads extend in all directions, which is convenient for hiding and transferring. ”

"Good, you look much smarter than my rice bucket men." John then asked, "Assuming those bastards of the Coyote clan are hiding in these three positions, what do you think I should do to exterminate them?" ”

"The most rapid means is an air strike. You can send your right-hand men to raid by helicopter or drop bombs. ”

"That's a good point. The problem is that I don't have that big bombs in my castle, and the Black Diamond Group has promised to carry a coagulation-gas-oil-bomb and 2 super-bombs that can level a block on the delivery helicopter tomorrow. The former is used to deal with those tree-like monsters, while the latter can be shared with the coyote clan. ”

"Sounds like you've been able to handle most of the problems."

"Here's the problem: I've only had enough bombs to blow up two suspicious areas, and there's one left. In the unlikely event that the main force of the Coyote Clans were on the remaining location, they would have disappeared immediately after the explosion, and it would be extremely difficult to locate them in the future without the Black Diamond Helicopter. ”

"You could have ordered another Super-Bomb."

"The price of the Super-Bomb is extremely high, and the current shipment has exhausted all my savings, and it is difficult to have any money to buy another one anytime soon; Moreover, this level of bomb black diamonds is sold on a limited basis, and I have already used up my purchase quota for the next month. ”

"Then you mean to send the elite to strike at the remaining suspicious location?"

"Nope. I don't want to put my elite at such unnecessary risks anymore, and I'm going to take out the main force of the Coyote clan with just two bombs, so I'm going to give you an important and honorable mission. ”

"You don't want me to single-handedly wipe out a suspicious area, do you?"

"No, I'm asking you to scout the remaining suspicious location and help me determine if there's a coyote main force hiding there."

"Understood, since it's 2 out of 3, of course you have to make sure you choose the main target."

"Clever. Let's choose one of these 3 positions. ”

Lin Zaishan carefully checked the map and noticed that one of them was near the world-famous Seven Star Avenue, which left traces of the world's most famous movie stars, and before the end of the world, it was the place where the ultimate event of the film industry was held every year, and immediately said: "I'll choose this location, if I'm lucky, I can leave my own footprints." ”

"Good choice! The bomb will be dropped tomorrow at 17 p.m. at the latest, so you'd better set off early tomorrow morning. This time, I'm allowing you to bring the most advanced individual weaponry at Castle John. John specifically reminded, "1051, if you can complete this mission, I will let you take Marcus's place." ”

"Thanks, I don't care about power." Lin Zaishan's most important thing is to recover his strength as soon as possible, and then get a large plane or ship in order to return to Huaxia, but this idea must not be said to John, otherwise the latter will have to worry about whether he will take the opportunity to escape.

//////

At 5 o'clock in the morning the next day, Lin Zaishan went to the warehouse to ask for weapons and equipment, but was ruthlessly refused. He said that it was John's order to no avail, and the treasurer handed him a communicator and said coldly, "This is the only thing you can carry, good luck." ”

Lin Zaishan was helpless, so he had to take the communicator and set off alone. The only weapons he carried with him were crossbows and double knives, which in the eyes of others were basically equivalent to being bare-handed and naked.

The operation only specified the destination, and did not restrict the route of travel. Lin Zaishan relied on his extraordinary sense of perception, sometimes going to the house, sometimes entering the ground, and when he encountered a large group of corpses, he would go around, and a small group of corpses would raid and exterminate.

He traveled several times, bypassing Dodger Stadium and Maa Park to Santa Monica Avenue, and traveled several kilometers along the street to the world-famous Hollywood (Loyal Knight's note: the Hollywood written here is a parallel world, which is different from the location and pattern in our reality).

Before the end of the world, the Hollywood area attracted tens of millions of visitors every year. After the outbreak of the apocalypse, a large number of zombies were stranded here, and the density of some areas was higher than that of the center of Los Angeles.

Lin Zaishan's destination is the Billy Hill Hotel, where you can see many famous attractions in the old days along the way; However, after the devastation of the end times, these attractions have been dilapidated.

He stopped in front of a giant cinema that was said to have been the annual mecca of the more than a dozen Olympic awards, but now even the gate has fallen to the ground. Luxury cars and ruins are everywhere in front of the door, and it can be imagined from the clothes worn by many zombies and bones that they were either rich or expensive during their lifetimes.

Lin Zailynx found a gold card from a skeleton engraved with the name of a famous pre-apocalyptic action actor. "I'll go! Why is Crusoe hanging here? ”

Before he could mourn, he heard a loud noise in the studio, and then a level 7 zombie with a height of more than 2.5 meters jumped out, holding a zombie leg in its hand, but it was not used as a weapon, but it was gnawing.

"Able to devour zombies of the same kind?" This is not common. Lin Zaishan lowered his body, hoping that the other party would leave quickly. He self-assessed that his current strength was difficult to compete with a level 7 zombie with only improvised weapons.

The level 7 zombie strode in the other direction. Lin Zaishan breathed a sigh of relief, but at this time, a big rat came out of the sewer next to him and ran into the film and television city against the ground. The seventh-level zombie was immediately attracted back, and it kicked away the luxury car in front of Lin Zaishan to chase the mouse, but found Lin Zaishan behind the car, and immediately shifted the target, and the thick claws swept over.

Lin Zaishan took a leap of fish and hid behind a tall palm tree. Level 7 zombies then arrived, and with a "smack", knocking the palm tree to the ground. Lin ran on his legs in the mountains, and the seventh-level zombies chased after him. Many times it has been scratched by its claws, and its flesh and blood.

Lin Zaishan panicked and ran under a tall, sturdy stone wall, with no way out. At this time, the level 7 zombie was clearing the obstacles such as cars blocking the road twenty meters away.

Lin Zaishan had a wit and shot a few level 3-5 zombies in the distance with crossbow arrows, and the latter heard the movement and immediately rushed up desperately to get a piece of the pie.

As soon as the seventh-level zombie threw a scrapped car far away, he found that several nasty people of the same kind came to grab the prey that he had finally met, and seemed to be furious, grabbed a fifth-level zombie and lifted it high, tore it into two pieces, and then began to chew on the flesh of the fifth-level zombie.

Lin Zaishan took the opportunity to get out of the gap, saw a window at a height of 8 meters in this building, and used his agility to step on the wall a few times and jump into the window.

The relentless seventh-level zombie slammed into the base of the wall, making several huge cracks. It hit it a few more times, and finally broke through a large hole and broke into the building, only to see a hall full of messes, but there was no shadow of Lin Zaishan. A few rats that had been sneaking around the hall were so frightened that they scattered and fled. The level 7 zombie then began to chase the rat again.

Lin Zaishan in a room on the second floor hurriedly changed his position, he didn't dare to go down, so he climbed all the way to the roof of the building. When he pushed open the exit door of the roof of the building and was about to take a breath, a female level 5 zombie on the roof pounced on him. This zombie has a tattered "lady's evening dress" hanging on its body, revealing a jet-black, hardened chest, a full head of long hair that covers its face like weeds, a diamond necklace around its neck and a gold bracelet on its right wrist that can no longer fit because of the expansion of its body, black and blue nails are more than 3 inches long like sharp blades, and its mouth is full of sharp fangs.

Lin Zaishan was taken aback, he was caught off guard, and could only use his hands to grab the two claws of this fifth-level zombie, and use his head against the opponent's hard chest and chin to avoid being bitten.

The fifth-level zombie roared sharply, twisting its neck to free its mouth to gnaw Lin Zaishan. The rancid breath contains highly poisonous, and ordinary people have long been stunned, but Lin Zaishan has a sense of qi and plant ability, so he immediately held his mouth and nose and breathed through his skin.

Although the opponent is a female level 5 zombie, her ability is not weak; And Lin Zaishan's state at this time is not even half of his heyday. He only stalemate for 3 seconds before he felt that he was not an opponent, if he hadn't been able to paralyze the opponent with electric shock ability, he was afraid that he would have been bitten a long time ago.

"You forced me!" Lin Zaishan was forced to activate his newly acquired ability—the instantaneous subtle manipulation ability that evolved from the so-called Crossing Technique First Form in the mouth of the fake monk Kongse—and began to absorb the life force of the fifth-level zombie.

Corpse poison can cause human life to die, but how is corpse poison not life itself? As long as it is life, it needs the support of life force.

A powerful stream of life energy poured into the veins of Lin Zaishan—unlike the life energy of sucking plants, the life energy of corpse poison carried an element of despair, restlessness, and rage. Lin Zaishan greedily absorbed and quickly detoxified. This element was eventually dissolved, transformed into a warm, refreshing, and pulsating sensation, which was refined, purified, and stored in his sea of consciousness.

//////

"Bang dang", the bones of the female fifth-level zombie fell to the ground, its two wrists were broken, and the strangely shaped gold bracelet on the wrist fell into Lin Zaishan's palm.

"I drained my life force and gave away jewelry, this business is good, I should do more in the future." Lin Zaishan inspected the rooftop and found no other zombies. He found a suitable position and climbed to the ground with the dexterity of a giant gecko.

Under the cover of the building, he made his way towards the Billy Hill Hotel. From time to time, I encountered small groups of corpses below level 5 and middle and low. Lin Zaishan's current coping strategy is to rush directly to absorb their vitality. Along the way, his life energy is getting stronger and stronger.

"If I suck the life energy of hundreds of zombies in one go, will I return to my peak state?" Lin Zaishan couldn't help but think of this problem, and after thinking about it again, he decided not to move blindly, but to act steadily and cautiously, "I used to have problems eating crystal fruits indiscriminately, although zombies are 'delicious', but they can't be 'eaten' more, who knows if they will have any hidden dangers." Then wait and see for a while, if there are no adverse consequences, you can safely and boldly hunt zombies in the future. ”

Lin Zaishan is vaguely uneasy about his current state of feeding on zombies, always worried about what unintended consequences will be.

//////

He walked through an unusually lush palm grove and finally saw the destination of his trip, the Billy Hill Hotel. Although this hotel is dilapidated, it still has an unconcealed luxury and extravagant style, and even the corpses wandering in front of the hotel are so chic.

Lin Zaishan sighed and was about to appear, when he suddenly noticed that the scars on the bones on the ground seemed to have been left from different periods, which showed a fact: someone had lived here for a long time.

He crouched down in the bushes again, looked up and looked intently at the windows of the hotel, and soon noticed that there appeared to be a telescope in one of the rooms on the upper floor. Although there was no human figure in sight, the room gave the impression that it was inhabited and tidyed, otherwise the glass would not be so clean and the curtains so neat.

"If the people in this room were looking in front of the window or had installed a monitor, I would definitely be aware of it from this angle."

He was about to go around to the back of the hotel when a level 4 zombie silently approached him, suddenly spreading its claws and pounced on him.

"Smack", Lin Zaishan accurately pinched the zombie's arms, cleanly sucked its vitality dry, and then ripped off the tattered hotel waiter uniform on its body.

He threw away his crossbow, bow, and twin knives, put on a waiter's uniform, and wandered aimlessly into the hotel gates, following the steps of zombies.

//////

As he expected, someone in the hotel was monitoring in real time, and Lin Zaishan could sense it through the intact camera hidden in the corner (he had electromagnetic induction ability). As for the corpses in front of the hotel and in the reception hall, they are just illusions, perhaps the people in the hotel want to leave outsiders with the feeling that this place is uninhabited and full of danger.

"It's time to test my electromagnetic induction skills." Due to the rapid increase of life energy, Lin Zaishan was pleasantly surprised to find that the long-lost electromagnetic induction ability could be used again; However, this time, without Lin Fuzi's real-time translation, he could not directly understand the electromagnetic information in the camera line. "I'm sure someone inside must be watching me."

He pretended to look around in the form of a zombie again, and found that dozens of zombies of different ranks in the hall were looking at him strangely as if they had seen strangers. "Oh no, I only thought about hiding the people in the hotel, but I didn't think that these zombies could distinguish the living infiltrator."

A Level 4 zombie approached him with great interest, apparently wanting to "socialize" with him in a "friendly" way.

Lin Zaishan had already moved to the corridor where the camera in the hall could not see at this time, and quickly quickened his pace to the stairwell, where he encountered another camera, and obviously there were some traps on the stairs.

"It's not going to bother me." He concentrated on transmitting electromagnetic energy to the camera's wiring, temporarily blocking the monitoring signal. After 2 seconds, the camera returned to normal, and Lin Zaishan had already disappeared.

He came to the second floor, and found that there was surveillance everywhere, so he looked for the monitoring blind spot and entered the elevator room, climbed up the elevator room to the top floor, and then hid in the corner of the corridor to investigate for a while, and transmitted electromagnetic energy again to make the cameras at both ends of the corridor temporarily fail, and quickly entered a room while taking advantage of the gap.

He cautiously poked his head out of the window of the room to make sure that the longitudinal plane was unmonitored, and then climbed to the outer wall and quickly approached the room where the telescope was expected. A few meters away, someone in the room was heard.

//////

"Dad, according to our drone reconnaissance in the morning, we found that a large number of corpses are moving south from the north, and it is estimated that they will enter the downtown area of Los Angeles this week. At that time, the living environment of Los Angeles will be even more difficult. The voice of a young man who was somewhat familiar with Lin Zaishan said.

A middle-aged man's rough voice asked, "What attracted these corpses to Los Angeles?" ”

Another familiar girl's voice replied, "Daddy, do you remember the weird voices that continue to appear in Los Angeles these days?" ”

"How could I forget? It was still ringing. ”

"I suspect it's this weird sound that attracts the corpses in the distance."

"Who do you mean is summoning the corpses for a meeting or a dinner?" The man known as Daddy asked.

"I bet every survivor in L.A. heard this weird sound; But to date, none of us know who this voice is. ”

"Could it be a high-level zombie?" The young man asked.

"It's kind of similar." The girl replied, "But that's not what the roar of a level 7 zombie looks like. This eerie sound is even more powerful. ”

"That might be level eight plus zombies."

"What it is, we can only find out after reconnaissance." Daddy walked into the window and opened it, "You two go get something delicious first, I'm going to take a shower." ”

The two young men responded with a "yes", and the room soon fell silent.

Lin Zai probed in the mountain and was sure that there was no one in this room, so he jumped in through the window.

As soon as his feet hit the ground, a large net fell from the ceiling.

"Does this pediatric trap want to greet me too?" Lin Zaishan sneered, easily put away the big net, and put it on the ground.

"Whoosh", two crossbow arrows from the left and right at the same time.

"Bang bang", Lin Zaishan took the crossbow arrow in his hand steadily, and sniffed it, "I applied anesthetic, but it didn't work for me." ”

At this time, he had already taken a clear look at the situation in the house, and found that this was a luxury suite of a hotel, and the room was very clean, except for binoculars, there was no monitoring equipment, not even weapons, ammunition, computers, mobile phones, etc.

The bathroom, bathroom, and living room in the suite were empty.

"It looks like all three people in the room have gone outside." After Lin Zaishan touched the door of the room, he gently pulled the latch of the door, and without finding anything suspicious, he went out to look.

"Bang!" A heavy object slammed into the back of his head, and he instantly passed out.
