Episode 98: On the Migration Road
The bitter sea of doomsday, sinking endlessly, under the scorching sun, a team of more than 20 survivors is migrating rapidly, the leader is a cold and handsome young man with a sword on his back, his body, silently, has its own awe-inspiring momentum, intimidating the surroundings, except for those ignorant and unconscious zombies, ordinary mutated creatures do not dare to approach at all.
But even so, the atmosphere on the road is still very dignified, this is the innate depression brought about by the end of the world, which makes people feel almost desperate.
Although those mutated creatures have never invaded, along the way, you can still see some terrifying mutated creatures from time to time.
The law of survival in nature, in the most primitive state, these animals are always able to adapt to the environment faster than humans, so they defeated the invasion of meteorite viruses and completed the first evolution in the shortest possible time, becoming mutant creatures.
The strength of these mutated creatures is far from being comparable to that of slow-moving zombies, and even, some particularly powerful existences, even powerful biochemical monsters such as special zombies or predators may not be able to match.
The more Jiang Bin and the others watched, the heavier their hearts became, this was an indescribable heavy oppression, making them feel as if it had become difficult to breathe.
Even Cheng Fei couldn't help but be silent for a while, although so far he had not met a powerful mutant creature that he couldn't match, it didn't mean that this powerful mutant creature didn't exist.
After fusing with the meteorite virus, ordinary cats and dogs can still become terrifying mutant monsters, not to mention lions and tigers, I am afraid they have already become terrifying monsters.
Moreover, these are only animals on land, and there are more creatures in the ocean, which may not be noticeable now, but Cheng Fei has a hunch that in the future, the biggest enemy of human beings in the apocalyptic world must come from the sea!
Everyone with different minds hurried at such a silent speed, walking for more than an hour, except for Cheng Fei, who was successful in martial arts, Jiang Bin and other survivors felt a little tired, after all, even if they experienced the end of life for nearly two months, but in the final analysis, they are just a group of ordinary people, with normal physical fitness, and it is already very good to be able to hold on until now.
Cheng Fei really wanted to bring these survivors to his own territory as soon as possible, which could be regarded as his contribution to this apocalyptic world for this world, but seeing the tired appearance of these survivors, especially those girls, Cheng Fei also had to worry about their bodies.
"Stop, rest in place for twenty minutes, everyone drink some water and eat something, store some energy, and wait a while before continuing to hurry. ”
After a slight hesitation, Cheng Fei immediately spoke, and then, the team stopped marching, everyone kept the formation as much as possible and sat down to rest, while Cheng Fei walked back and forth around, killing the zombies that attracted him.
"Nine thousand nine hundred fifty-two, nine thousand nine hundred fifty-three.........."
The hunting mission was almost completed, and every time Cheng Fei killed a zombie, he had to pay attention to the changes in the mission information in his mind, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and he couldn't help but show a smile.
Completing the hunting quest will give him access to a mid-level mysterious chest, which is a great thing to be happy about if he can open any powerful supernatural abilities or magic weapon equipment.
It's like the ability seed that was opened in the last adventure world, which allowed him to master the spiritual ability, although it is still only the most basic spiritual perception, but it also makes his strength greatly improved, and it can be compared to ordinary martial artists.
After everyone rested, they saw Cheng Fei wantonly slashing zombies, their eyes were full of awe and envy, if they could have such a strong strength, even in the apocalyptic world, they would be able to survive well.
At this time, at the back of the team, the young man who wanted to worship Cheng Fei as a teacher before, at this moment, his face was full of pale looks, and he looked like a dead man, and he no longer had the ruddy appearance that ordinary people should have.
Looking around, his right hand stretched out, subconsciously covering his left arm, where, under the sleeve, there was a huge wound, and the blood began to coagulate, but he deliberately covered it with his sleeve, so no one noticed.
After a meteorite virus infects a host, the virus outbreak can be long or short. Some people turn into zombies in just a few hours, while others take days to be completely controlled by the virus. There are many reasons for this, whether it is directly related to the strength of the person's constitution or the degree of infection.
For a strong, healthy person, it is a difficult process for the occasional few viruses to get on the skin to defeat the immune system, and it is even possible that the virus can be completely eliminated.
Although the meteorite virus is powerful and will not be easily destroyed by the human immune system, it is still somewhat difficult to destroy the immune system of a healthy and strong person, which is why some people can still move normally for a few days after being infected with the meteorite virus.
This young man's body can be regarded as relatively strong, but when he was bitten, he was in a fierce battle, and the virus had already invaded his brain with the flow of blood, which greatly shortened the time to destroy the immune system. So, it didn't take long for his body to start reacting.
Sitting in an inconspicuous corner at the end of the line, his face was pale and ugly, and he knew very well that he was infected, and that he would almost certainly end up being one of those horrible monsters.
As soon as he thought of turning into that kind of unconscious walking corpse, his body couldn't help but tremble, he didn't want to die, he really didn't want to die!
Therefore, even though he knew that after he mutated, there was a danger that he would infect his companions, he still chose to conceal it, because he still had a trace of luck in his heart, perhaps, his physique is special, and it is not necessary to be immune to meteorite viruses, maybe, this virus is not as terrifying as imagined, maybe...... Even if there is no possibility at all......
People's desire to survive is like this, they will instinctively drive themselves to make the most irrational and selfish choice, which is the instinct of survival.
"Hongwu, what's wrong with you?"
At this time, Jiang Bin noticed the strangeness of the young man, and out of concern, he couldn't help but ask out loud.
Hearing this, the young man named Hongwu couldn't help but change his face, and immediately responded calmly: "I'm fine, but I feel a little tired." ”
Jiang Bin frowned subconsciously, but out of trust in his companion who had lived and died together for two months, he didn't think much about it.
It has been more than two months since the meteorite virus swept the world, and although these people know that zombies and biochemical monsters will be infected after biting, they are not very professional personnel, and they are not very clear about the early symptoms of some infected people.
However, these people are not clear, but Cheng Fei is clear in his heart, and at a glance, he knows that there is something wrong with Hongwu's situation.
He still has a good impression of this young man who dares to apprentice to him, so he is ready to test the other party, if he is still passable, he doesn't mind saving him. As for how to save it, whether he can save it, it depends on whether his conjecture is correct or not, and whether the other party's luck is good enough.
In the apocalyptic world, human life is worse than grass mustard in troubled times, as long as the heart is not bad, one more can survive, and look to the future, it is the hope of mankind.
Moreover, it was impossible for Cheng Fei to leave the potential danger in the survivor team, and then bring it back to his territory to cause some unexpected turmoil, and in a moment of thought, he strode towards Hongwu.
As the new boss of this survivor team, Cheng Fei, who has great power, is the focus of awe in everyone's hearts, and his move immediately attracted everyone's attention, including Hong Wu.
Seeing Cheng Fei walking towards him, Hong Wu faintly had a bad premonition in his heart, after all, he would not be naïve to think that Cheng Fei was here to take him as an apprentice.
It's just that, although he tried his best to pretend to be calm, in the face of the mysterious and powerful Cheng Fei, Hong Wu's face still showed a somewhat unnatural look.
Cheng Fei ignored the gazes of everyone around him, and when he came to Hong Wu, he didn't say half a nonsense, and even opened his mouth to ask, "Say, where was it bitten?"
