Vol.1 Havoc Chapter 017 Otaku in the Last Days (1)
Chapter 10: Apocalyptic Otaku
At five o'clock in the morning, it was getting brighter. Lin Zaishan climbed back to the surface from the roof along the pipe, and then walked briskly to the east. In addition to the Eastern District Police Station, parks, post offices, fire stations, hospitals, etc. are all concentrated here, lined up along the central street. Lin Zaishan is going to the "Chaoyang Computer Clinic" at the western end of the remaining section of Central Street, a little closer than the post office, fire station and hospital, between the park and the post office. It's not a long road, but it's very dense with zombies, and there are several evolved zombies that are tall and agile.
Looking at the "Chaoyang Computer Clinic", which was just 100 meters away but blocked by dozens of zombies, Lin Zaishan said with a smile: "In the last days, it is also necessary to risk your life to repair a computer and mobile phone." Since I couldn't get in from the main entrance of the street, I tried to get in somewhere else. β
After yesterday's rooftop adventure, Lin Zaishan naturally thought of climbing with a rope again. He found a remote place that the zombies couldn't notice, threw out the grappling hook, and climbed to the roof with the package on his back in ten seconds. The roofs of this section are all connected, and Lin Zaishan is like walking on the ground, and soon he came to the "Chaoyang Computer Clinic". He looked down and saw that four or five zombies were guarding the door of the storefront, and there was a window on the second floor that should be accessible. So I fixed the rope and rappelled down to the window on the second floor, where I saw two broken glass windows, and behind the window was a workshop-like room, with neither personnel nor zombies. Lin Zaishan quietly opened the window and jumped in.
In the morning light, he could see the general situation of the room at a glance: a platform resembling a kitchen counter on all sides, close to the wall, but without any kitchen utensils, on which were placed microscopes, centrifuges, coffee machines and other equipment, and in the center of the room was a small lathe on which metalworking tools were installed. The equipment and tools appear to be damaged and deformed. There is a small metal door facing the room, and the door is closed.
Lin Zaishan opened the metal door and found that behind the door was a short corridor, with a staircase at the left end of the corridor and a room with a closed door at the right end. He walked over and pushed the door, which was hidden, and behind it a very messy bedroom appeared: a large bed near the wall, and only a single bed with a half-charred single quilt and pillows; On the wall of the bedside is a painting of a beautiful woman wearing only a three-point style; Facing the wall at the foot of the bed is a large burned-out 64-inch wall-mounted TV; The only couch was littered with scraps of laundry.
"It seems that the owner of this room is a bit of a tech nerd."
Lin Zaishan walked out of the bedroom, and from the stairs to the third floor, there were also two rooms on the third floor, both of which were empty. He went down to the first floor again, and noticed that on the first floor, in addition to the storefront room facing the street, there was a small door leading to a courtyard inside.
"Since the faΓ§ade room is in ruins, I'd better take a look in the courtyard."
The small door leading to the courtyard was locked from the other side. Lin Zaishan saw the position, and the military stabbed a few times, and the door lock fell to the ground.
"My 'craft' of picking locks is getting smoother and smoother."
He pushed open the small door and saw a small garden of about 40 square meters, and all the plants in the garden had been destroyed, except for the two young shoots that had just sprouted.
In the corner of the small garden there was a stone well, which was covered with a single iron bed that looked very sturdy.
Of course, the careful Lin Zaishan would not let go of such a strange "set", he walked over and was about to move the iron bed, and found that the iron bed was still tied with a wire rope to lead down to the well.
"No, iron beds are used instead of traditional wheels. It's a bit of a queen modernism. β
He struggled to move the iron bed half away from the well, took out a flashlight and shone it down, and couldn't help but be stunned: there was actually a corpse in the well, this corpse was tied by a rope and shook against the water, the corpse was still wearing an electric car helmet on its head, a barrel-shaped metal ring around its neck, and several backpacks were tied to both sides of its body.
"This kind of death was a real eye-opener for me! It's a shame that this guy figured it out. That's fine, at least you can't eat people if you become a zombie. It's polluting the water source. Thinking of the serious consequences of the water source being polluted, Lin Zaishan, who was about to turn around and leave, turned around again, grabbed the rope that bound the corpse and began to lift it up. The rope swayed with the corpse towards the wellhead, and when it reached the wellhead, the well narrowed, and the corpse's head hit the wall of the well.
"Who? Who's pulling me? The corpse suddenly screamed.
Lin Zaishan was taken aback, the rope came out of his hand, and the "corpse" fell sharply. Lin Zaishan, whose nerves had been tempered to be extremely tenacious in the last days, immediately reacted, grabbed the sliding rope, and said to the following:
"I'm sorry, I'm here to save you."
"Are you a police officer or a firefighter?"
"I'm Lin Zaishan, the captain of the wilderness rescue team."
"I've heard of you! Wait a minute, I want that ......."
The man in the well took out a box from the bag, corrected the password, took out a mobile phone from the box, first laboriously posed a POSE on the dangling rope to take a selfie of himself, and then pointed the camera at the well, and said, "Dude, you can pull me up." β
Lin Zaishan couldn't cry or laugh, exerted his arm strength, and lifted the person in the well to the mouth of the well three or five times, and was about to pull him up, but the man said, "Wait." I will always remember the moment when I saw the light of day again. Then he used his mobile phone to take a close-up of himself and Lin Zaishan.
"I am Zhao Yang, the owner of Chaoyang Computer Clinic, thank you!" The man took off his hard hat, revealing a chicken's nest-like messy hair, thick spectacle lenses, and dirty stubble, and then stretched out his hand to Lin Zaishan. After Lin Zaishan shook hands with him amicably, the man suddenly patted his head and said, "Oh, I'm sorry." I haven't washed my hands in over a week. β
Lin Zaishan smiled and said, "It's okay. β
Zhao Yang held the hand that Lin Zaishan had shaken and added: "During this time, in order to be clean and hygienic, I use this hand to urinate and urinate, and I use the other hand to eat." β
Lin Zaishan was speechless and began to look around for water.
Zhao Yang took out a ham sausage from the bag he was tied with and asked Lin Zaishan: "Do you want one, brother?" β
Lin Zaishan shook his head. Zhao Yang devoured it himself, and asked as he ate: "Brother, are you sure that the ground is suitable for human life again?" β
"I'm not sure if the ground is suitable for human life, but I'm sure you'll die sooner or later if you stay in the well."
"Yes, yes, it's so uncomfortable in the well, if I hadn't carried my mobile phone with me, I would have suffocated to death. Ah, speaking of which, my Galaxy Knight is still barely clear, so I have to ...... now."
"Zhao Yangjun!" Lin Zaishan stopped and said: "Now is not the time to play mobile games, there are dangers around us, and zombies, mutant beasts or thugs will rush in at any time to kill us!" β
"What do you say? Aren't the authorities in control? β
"At least in Yutai County, I'm afraid not."
Zhao Yang ran to the "workshop" on the second floor and screamed: "My studio!" He rushed to the window again, looked outside, and shouted, "Zombies! There really are zombies! OMGοΌ Zombies! β
"Zhao Yangjun, calm down!"
Zhao Yang suddenly burst out laughing.
"Zhao Yangjun, are you stupid? Don't worry, I'll protect you. β
"No, no, I'm so excited. Did you know that I've watched 32 zombie movies, 25 zombie TV series, and played 16 zombie games. I've always fantasized that one day I could become a zombie fighter and save the world, and today I finally have the chance to make my dream come true! No, I'm going to get my armor, weapons, and support equipment......"
"Zhao Yangjun, I appreciate your optimism and fighting spirit, but fighting zombies also requires us to pay attention to strategy, tactics, methods and methods, like your current state of excitement, it will only lead us to be surrounded by zombies."
"Yes, yes, yes! Captain Lin, what do you think we should do? You must be very experienced, so teach me the cheats of the raiders. Zhao Yang actually turned on the recording function of his mobile phone and looked at Lin Zaishan solemnly, waiting for him to speak.
"The first rule of survival in the last days is: keep an optimistic, strong, and courageous heart from beginning to end, otherwise you will easily be defeated by danger, frightened by evil, and consumed by darkness."
Zhao Yang nodded again and again, repeated his words in a low voice, and praised: "That's a good story!" β
"The second rule is: to continuously improve your own strength, it is best to have a skill that cannot be replaced by others."
"I say 'seriously' yes!"
"The third rule is...... I haven't sorted it out yet, and I'll tell you about it when I have time. You just need to learn more and watch more. β
"Okay, I remember it all."
"Zhao Yangjun, you ......"
"Captain Lin, please don't call me Zhao Yangjun." Zhao Yang protested.
"And what should I call you?"
"Please call me by my screen name - Zhiyang Yang!"
"Well, well, hello Zhiyang Yang! Are you sure you're not playing a house or acting in a cartoon? β
"I'm serious about names. Captain Lin, what should we do next? β
"Do you have any of these electronic components, I want to upgrade my phone." Lin Zaishan opened his mobile phone and showed Zhiyangyang the detailed list provided by "Master Lin".
"There were all of them, but the explosion must have destroyed them all."
"Is there a way for you to get your hands on them?"
"Captain Lin, look at what you said. My wisdom sheep is not in vain. Although I didn't have it at hand, I knew there was a place where it definitely was. β
"You want to say Computer City, right?"
Zhiyang nodded.
"Won't the equipment in the computer city be damaged by the explosion?"
"Generally speaking, expert merchants are very good at paying attention to heat and magnetic resistance, and they will have some protective facilities or gadgets like the box in my hand; In addition, there is an underground market under the computer city, and the electronic equipment will definitely be preserved even better. β
"However, the computer city is now controlled by Qian Long and Ah Wei, who have guns in their hands, and are numerous and lawless. I'm afraid they won't let us into the computer city. β
"Well, let me think again...... Ah, there you have it! I bought a new batch of computer and mobile phone accessories online before the end of the day, but I didn't have time to receive them. I checked that day, and the goods had arrived at the county post office. β
"Aren't the items purchased online delivered by courier companies, how did they go to the post office?"
"Captain Lin, the post office in Yutai is the largest express agency in the county."
"I rarely shop online, I don't know."
"The post office is diagonally across the road, let's get going."
"Wait, you can't go out like this. Your armor is good, but your weapons need to be strengthened. β
"Weapons? That's great! Captain Lin, what kind of weapon do you think I should use? β
"It is best to use a blunt weapon to fight zombies, which can easily break the braincase, and it is not easy to be so cheap that you are covered with it, which can reduce the chance of contracting the virus; It is best to use a sharp weapon to fight mutant beasts, and stab them in the heart and other vital points. Also, be sure to wear gloves and masks as much as possible and change them frequently. β
"Understood, I'm going to look for weapons." Zhiyangyang entered the bedroom, pulled out a metal box under the bed (Lin Zaishan sighed on the side after seeing it, he was really careless, he didn't even think to search for such an important position under the bed), opened the box, took out a metal bat, shook it at Lin Zaishan, and boasted: "This is a collection signed by the famous star XXX that I bought for 20,000 yuan, strong and beautiful, and an absolute weapon for self-defense!" β
Lin Zaishan smiled and nodded, indicating that it was okay. Zhiyang Yang then took out a self-made crossbow more than two feet long from the box, and proudly showed off to Lin Zaishan and said: "This is my imitation of the crossbow brother in a certain TV series made by myself, which can shoot 30 meters." Then he mounted a crossbow bolt and aimed it at the chest of the three-point beauty in the bedside painting.
"Whoosh!" "Bang!" "Ahh The crossbow arrow fired, hit the wall, and bounced back and smashed into the crotch of Zhiyangyang. The latter clutched his crotch and jumped for a while before regaining his composure.
"It seems that the power of crossbow arrows is not small." Lin Zaishan picked up the crossbow arrow and looked at it twice and said, "It's just that the arrow is not sharp enough, and there is a problem with your crossbow power mechanism, which causes the crossbow arrow to be not stable enough after flying out." You hand me the crossbow, and I'll improve it for you. Lin Zaishan picked up the crossbow for a brief inspection, re-fixed a certain part, and picked a sharper crossbow arrow from Zhiyangyang's box, then wound it, took a few steps back, and aimed at the eyebrows of the three-point beauty on the bedside. With a swish, the crossbow arrow was firmly nailed to the forehead of the beauty, and the body of the arrow could not help but tremble, making a buzzing sound.
"Sure enough, he deserves to be a master!" Zhiyang Yang exclaimed.
"We're going to face zombies down there, so you put away your crossbow and arrows, and all you have to do is have a bat in your hand. Remember: try not to make noise, try to avoid being surrounded by zombies, and never get scratched or bitten by zombies! β
"Remember!"
"Let's go!"
