34. Rage
It's just that all of this feels more real to her, not as illusory as she once imagined the existence of gods.
"Zhong Ling, hurry up!!" Li Ming gritted his teeth and said, he watched Zhong Ling fiddle with his wound with iron tongs, the pain made him really unbearable, and now he regretted a little that he didn't buy anesthetic needles in the store, otherwise he wouldn't have to suffer this hardship.
Li Ming's words interrupted Zhong Ling's thoughts, and he responded softly: "Oh, oh..."
Then Zhong Ling felt that the bullet had been clamped, and then pulled it out, looking at the bleeding thigh, she quickly picked up the medicine and medical cloth on the side to bandage Li Ming.
Li Ming also breathed a sigh of relief at this time, his originally distorted face relaxed, but the cold sweat on his forehead still stopped.
Zhong Ling looked at Li Ming's ordinary face, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, maybe she was too naΓ―ve once, and she always thought that the other party was sent by God to save her, but so what?
She likes to be with each other, including life and death together, and this catastrophe also made her more aware that Li Ming is actually good.
At this moment, a muffled snort sounded continuously around, Xu Yongan hurriedly stepped forward to observe, looking at those people in pain, their faces were already slightly blackened, and their bare skin showed a little signs of decay.
He frowned and shouted, "Li Ming, come here." β
Hearing this, Li Ming could only endure the pain and get up, and came to Wu Hao's side, with the faint light of the fire, he found that the six people in front of him actually showed signs of corpse transformation, and his face suddenly changed, although he didn't know how long it would take for these people to become zombies, but this was not a good sign.
"Why don't you shoot it directly, if you stay and wait for a while, you can only become a zombie." Xu Yongan's eyes were cold, and he said coldly. He had encountered such things many times, and each time he solved them this way.
Hearing this, Li Ming shook his head and said resolutely: "These people are all following me, no matter what, I will save them and not let them become a zombie without humanity!" β
Originally, the six people had a look of despair in their eyes when they heard Xu Yongan's words, but they understood that it was impossible for anyone who was infected by zombies to recover, but Li Ming's next words moved them very much.
One of them smiled lonely: "Chief, I feel that it is worth dying with you, don't waste your time, just give me a good time, I don't want to wait to become a zombie and continue to hurt my companions." β
His words resonated with the rest of the people, and the rest of the people began to agree, as for those who were not infected by the zombies, tears were unconsciously left in their eyes, in their opinion, maybe one day they would also follow each other's path, after all, this is a road to survive with zombies.
"You all stop me, you don't have to become zombies now, wait, I'll think of a way." Li Ming frowned and said.
It's just that his words are just comforting to others in the eyes of others.
Seeing this, Li Ming shook his head, he didn't say it casually, now he can only ask Zhi Brain as soon as possible, if there is a way to help the other party and keep them from becoming zombies.
"Brain, is there anything that can be done to restore them?" Li Ming asked Zhi Nao Dao inwardly.
"Yes!"
Hearing this, Li Ming was overjoyed, and looked at a virtual item that appeared in front of him, a second-level gene resistance potion, which needed to be worth 10,000 points.
Although the value point was a little higher, Li Ming still did not hesitate to buy six bottles, and he was also glad that the value point of the mutant pig he sold before was useless.
Li Ming took out six vials of genetic resistance elixir in his pocket and handed them to Wu Hao, saying, "This can make them recover, you hurry up and let them take it." β
Hearing this, Xu Yongan looked at the medicine in his hand suspiciously, but he still gave them honestly, but in his heart, this was just Li Ming in order to make his subordinates die more peacefully, because the zombie's method of virus invasion has been recognized as a terminal illness on the base, and everyone who is scratched by zombies has become a zombie without exception.
Looking at the person who slowly fell asleep after taking it, Xu Yongan was more sure of his thoughts, he had used this trick before, but Li Ming thought differently.
"Zhi Brain, what's going on with this symptom like a virus invasion?" Li Ming thought for a moment and asked Zhi Naodao.
"This belongs to the information category, and it needs to be worth a thousand points."
Hearing this, Li Ming's belly was slandered, the wisdom brain is good at everything, that is, everything has to be valuable, for him who is sometimes poor jingle bell, that is the most hated existence, but when he is full of value, he is very much looking forward to it, because he can exchange for many things that can solve the problem.
I think so, but Li Ming still bought it, the value of a thousand is not much, and it is easy to get it by killing a second-level zombie casually.
The information entered Li Ming's mind, the blood of zombies is full of genetic viruses, if the fragile genes of human beings are invaded, human genes will begin to mutate, becoming an unconscious and inhuman zombie.
And because the genetic strength of genetically strengthened people is relatively high, the resistance of genetic mutations is higher, but the premise is still the level of zombies and the genetic level of strengthened people.
Just when Li Ming finished reading the information, he didn't have time to think about it, Xu Yongan took out the pistol on his waist and pointed it at the person in front of him.
Li Ming hurriedly stopped the other party and asked, "Head, what are you doing?!" β
"Li Ming, I know you can't do it, but you have to understand that if you don't do it now, wait for them to become zombies, and in this narrow place, we may be accidentally attacked." Xu Yongan said expressionlessly.
And the rest nodded in agreement, and they didn't think that the six would recover.
Hearing this, Li Ming shook his head, stared at the other party and said, "Head, believe me." β
Li Ming's words made Xu Yongan put down the gun in his hand and sighed slightly, in his opinion, Li Ming would understand later, and then he asked everyone to step back and stay away from these six people.
But Zhong Ling did not listen to Xu Yongan's words, but came to Li Ming's side, and when he saw this, Li Ming was stunned and said, "Aren't you afraid?" Aren't you afraid that they will turn into zombies? β
"Don't be afraid, because you're here, because I believe in you..."
Li Ming was very moved when he heard this, and he wanted to hug each other for a deep kiss, but he couldn't do it here, because there were too many people, and one was not good, and the prestige he had just established was directly hiccuped.
So he could only change the subject and said, "Wu Hao, didn't I ask you to find an underground laboratory?" How did you find me this underground tunnel? β
Wu Hao smiled bitterly when he heard this: "Brother Li, the location of the map you gave me is here, I was originally suspicious, but I didn't find that laboratory after looking for a long time." β
He was also helpless, the location of this map painting was here, no matter how he looked for it, it was still the case, originally he suspected that this was the passage of the laboratory, but he didn't reach the laboratory for a long time, so he gave up, because he understood that the people above didn't have so much time to wait for him.
But this tunnel can also be used, since it has not reached the bottom after going so deep, it is not bad to use it for escape, so he notified Li Ming.
Li Ming was stunned for a moment, then took the map and looked at it, recalling the route he had taken before, and then frowned, because as Wu Hao said, the location of this map is not wrong, then there are only two possibilities, the first is that the map given by Lin Xiaoyin is wrong, and the second is that the laboratory is below.
It's just that the lab will be built at such a depth? It shouldn't be possible, after all, electricity can't be transmitted to such a deep position, not to mention that he didn't see the so-called wires all the way down.
Li Ming thought deeply, it was impossible for Lin Xiaoyin to lie to her, so there was only one possibility, that is, Lin Xiaoyin had only heard from Dr. McCann and had not been here in person, so she didn't know the situation here.
He shook his head, it was useless to think about it so much, it was better to go down and see the situation, anyway, now that the back road has been blocked, he can only keep moving forward, and the passage obviously has air circulation, so it can't be a dead end.
Li Ming thought for a while and said, "You guys wait for me here, I'll go down and have a look." β
"But they..."Xu Yongan pointed to the six people who were asleep on the ground and said hesitantly.
"It's okay, they'll wake up later." Li Ming said confidently, after all, what Zhi Brain gave Yu has never been missed.
"Wake up? It should be a zombie, let's just shoot them, don't let someone get infected by then. Wang Xiaofeng couldn't help but speak. I don't know why, since he quarreled with Li Ming before, he has a feeling of boredom with Li Ming.
Such an obvious target can be heard by everyone, Li Ming is no exception, he sneered: "Company Commander Wang, I didn't expect you to be so timid, you actually started to be afraid of zombies, but I don't like to hear what you say, they are my people, even if they become zombies, then I will kill them, there is no need for you to point fingers." β
No matter why the other party is targeting him, but Li Ming is no longer a bastard who has just entered the end of the world, and now he has the confidence to talk to the other party head-on, saying, these are all his people, if he bows his head like this, he doesn't have to expect his subordinates to buy his life for him in the future.
"You..." Wang Xiaofeng's eyes widened, and he wanted to scold, as a company commander, he was actually ridiculed by Li Ming's private armed forces, and he could bear it.
"Iron plate, shut up!" Xu Yongan frowned and shouted.
"Captain, he..." Wang Xiaofeng wanted to say something, but when he saw Xu Yongan's angry eyes, he stopped talking, but in his heart he even hated Xu Yongan, every time Li Ming was present, Xu Yongan didn't stand on his side, always stood on Li Ming's side, how could he stand it.
"I really don't know what to say..."Li Ming said disdainfully, and then ignored the other party and went straight down the tunnel.
"Chief, wait for me, I'll go with you." Zhong Ling saw Li Ming leaving, and hurriedly followed.
Li Ming did not refuse, if one person walked in this dark passage, it was easy to put too much psychological pressure on himself, and multiple people could also relieve the pressure.
"I said Zhong Ling, call me Li Ming in the future." Li Ming said with a smile. Zhong Ling's trust before made Li Ming have a good impression of her, so he deliberately pulled in the relationship between the two, after all, it felt too strange to be called the leader.
Hearing this, Zhong Ling blinked her watery eyes and chuckled: "Then it's better to call Brother Li directly, anyway, Wu Hao and they are called like this." β
"Okay, whatever you want, as long as you don't call the leader." Li Ming said with a smile.
Wang Xiaofeng watched the two leave intimately, and the anger in his eyes was even greater, and the feeling of being ignored was like a sharp knife piercing his heart, making his originally ignited anger rise infinitely.
Maybe he didn't care about Li Ming before, but since he knew that Li Ming had forty genetically strengthened people, he began to pay attention to the other party, but he didn't expect that Li Ming had become tougher since he had power, and now he didn't take him seriously.
Wang Xiaofeng looked at the rest of the people, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, the fighting consciousness of those who came out of the army was indeed better than those survivors who only knew how to fight hard, so among the remaining twenty-three genetic enhancers, there were eleven people in the army.
Since he is a person from the army, Wang Xiaofeng is confident that he can win him over to his side, and when the time comes, he is afraid that Li Ming will not bow his head, at least he will be able to sit on an equal footing with the other party, so that the other party will not dare to ignore him as he is now.
Thinking of this, Wang Xiaofeng came to Lai Tian's side and said with a smile: "Lai Tian, I remember that you used to be Zhang Tian's subordinate, right?" β
Hearing this, Lai Tian was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Company Commander Wang, indeed, I used to be in the squad leader of Zhang Tian. β
If Wang Xiaofeng looked for him before, then he must have been very excited, but now that he is in the last days, and he has already left the army, he no longer has the mentality of hoping that his superiors will value him.
"Hehe, Lai Tian, I'm going to promote you to squad leader, what do you think?" Wang Xiaofeng said with a smile. This was one of the tactics he used to win over his subordinates, and it was a tried-and-true ploy.
Hearing this, Xu Yongan frowned, isn't this digging into Li Ming's corner? If Li Ming knew about this matter, with his understanding of Li Ming, he would definitely make a lot of trouble, and it might affect himself.
In Xu Yongan's opinion, Li Ming is too mysterious, and the ability to make something out of nothing is simply too strong, so he has never told others about it, and he has always wanted to maintain a good relationship with Li Ming.
Because he knew that Li Ming would definitely rise, with this kind of ability, he would definitely be a powerful existence in the last days, and he couldn't do it if he didn't want to.
Just when Xu Yongan was about to stop Wang Xiaofeng, he only heard Lai Tian smile and said: "Company Commander Wang, now I, Lai Tian, have officially submitted an application for retirement from the army to you, and whether you agree or not, I will also be discharged from the army myself, so you should find someone else for the position of squad leader, I personally think it is very good to follow Leader Li." β
Lai Tian sneered in his heart, when he was under Zhang Tian, he didn't necessarily see that the other party was so kind, every time he said a few words seriously and left, even if he was so good at the time, the other party didn't take a look, now come with me, forget it.
The smile on Wang Xiaofeng's face stiffened when he heard this, and then he became gloomy...
The gloomy Wang Xiaofeng looked at Lai Tian coldly, but the other party looked at him directly, without the slightest fear, which made him grit his teeth and said angrily: "You are a soldier, you..."
Suddenly, Wang Xiaofeng felt that someone was pulling him up from behind, interrupting his words, he turned his head angrily, but saw Xu Yongan's even more gloomy face, this expression he felt as if he had seen it there, and a bad premonition rose in his heart.
"Captain... I..."The corners of Wang Xiaofeng's mouth twitched and trembled.
It's just that it was Xu Yongan's fierce fist that answered him, only to see Xu Yongan swing a fist on the left side of the opponent's face, and then a knee kick in Wang Xiaofeng's abdomen.
Wang Xiaofeng snorted, then looked directly at Xu Yongan, gritted his teeth and said, "Captain, I don't accept it!" I..."
Before Wang Xiaofeng finished speaking, Xu Yongan punched again, fiercely hitting Wang Xiaofeng's right cheek, and the two faces were just balanced, becoming an out-and-out pig face.
