This was the first time that the end times came, and Zheng Rui fell asleep while maintaining the connection of consciousness.

She was a little scared and didn't want to be alone in the dark, so she cut her hand and let Benna suck in to keep her consciousness connected. Benna drew a picture in her mind, a seaside beach and a sun umbrella, a tourist already lying in sunglasses.

Zheng Rui: Sister Na, do you want to go to the beach?

Benna: I'm thinking about everything right now – but let's solve the problem of survival first.

Zheng Rui: Survival ...... The world has gone mad. We are the raw material for the reproduction of bugs.

Benna: There's always a way, isn't it?

Zheng Rui: Yes, there is always a way.

She didn't really feel anything other than fear. Zheng Rui doesn't really think that the aliens came to Earth to reproduce here, they only seem to eat people, not human food, although it stands to reason that they have the same material composition as humans.

But the Xenomorphs use human corpses as a material source for reproduction, which is really ......

- It's uncomfortable.

She thought she was numb from the beginning, but in fact, after the bottom line was broken once, it would be broken for the second and third time......

Zheng Rui: Sister Na, can you sing me a song?

Benna: How do you sing it?

Zheng Rui: Right here, in my head.

Benna tried it, and in the state of consciousness connection, any conscious activity can be transmitted.

The imaginary voice sounded in Zheng Rui's mind, and it turned out to be "Farewell": "Outside the long pavilion, by the ancient road, the grass is green, and the sky is ......"

Zheng Rui closed his eyes, and also responded in his mind: "The evening breeze blows the willow flute, and the sunset is outside the mountain......"

"The end of the sky, the corner of the earth, the acquaintance is half scattered......"

"A cloudy wine is all over the place, don't dream of cold ...... tonight"

She gradually calmed down.

When a person dies, there is nothing left, no matter what his body is taken for. It doesn't really matter if it's eaten by an alien or spawned inside.

After all, she is just afraid of the dead, but what is there to be afraid of the dead?

She herself had died so many times that she even had the feeling of dying in her experiment notebook.

Nothing to be afraid of, it's just that those people were unlucky and didn't come back to life like her.

Zheng Rui raised her hand to wipe away the tears on her face, lay down next to Bian Na and fell asleep.

————————————

The next day, August 22nd.

Although this was the eleventh day of the end of the world, Zheng Rui felt as if eleven months had passed.

Yesterday she had just seen Xenomorphs lay eggs in human corpses, and now she had accepted it in her heart.

Amazingly, this is human.

From a shoddy, tinkering evolutionary route that began with the Zygosaurus, to the survival strategy of hundreds of millions of years of humiliation of the primates, humanity has one day become the ruler of the earth, but in the face of incomprehensible alien forces......

— but helpless, like a mouse that is a primate with humans.

Perhaps this fate was decided from the moment they parted ways with the sauromorphs. Zheng Rui thought somewhat nonsensically, what would the current situation be if the earth really had a civilization that produced dinosaurs like "The Devourer", or if more evolved birds developed another kind of intelligence?

However, in the face of absolute power, whether it is a mouse, a human, a dinosaur or a bird, I am afraid there will be no difference.

But she still has to find a way to live, and the people on the other side are dead, but she still has to find a way to live a little longer.

Zheng Rui sat between the shelves, closed her eyes and calmed down by taking a deep breath.

In fact, the situation is not so bad, even if some people may have been killed by the aliens and hatched the first batch of evolutionary aliens, but it seems that the number of aliens is not that large now. Moreover, there are no other residential areas around here, and after cleaning up the corpses that may hatch aliens on the opposite side, as long as they maintain the state of this isolated island, they can ensure safety to a certain extent in terms of probability.

Feeding-vegetative growth and reproduction-reproductive growth are two sides of the same coin, and the heterogeneous food comes from preying on humans, and reproduction requires human corpses as a breeding ground, so they will inevitably gather spontaneously in places where humans live in groups. Assuming that the placement of aliens on the surface was scattered at the beginning, and Zheng Rui's initial encounter with aliens was also random, then now the aliens should have gathered in groups with a large number of people, and the probability of encountering aliens in scattered settlements will become smaller and smaller.

According to this theory, as long as they stay in the commissary, if there is a safari alien who comes by chance, they rely on Zheng Rui to fight it at the door, so they should be able to last for a while.

However, this is not a long-term solution. Zheng Rui doesn't know where the limit of the immortal ability is, but from the perspective of the laws of thermodynamics, it takes energy to restore her order, so in the face of a large number of alien non-stop attacks, even if she has an efficient recovery ability, she will be finished if she runs out of energy. If she just doesn't want to make progress here, she can barely kill the second-generation evolved alien now, and she may not be able to withstand it when the third-generation alien comes out in a week.

Moreover, the second-generation xenomorphs have been able to slaughter thirteen people in the eight basements on the opposite side with just one person, which shows ......

Wrong.

Zheng Rui stood up suddenly, ran out of the shelf and looked around, walked straight to Bian Na and asked, "Sister Na, how many people are there in the basement of the opposite community?" ”

Bian Na was stunned for a moment, frowned and thought for a while before saying, "Originally, there should be thirty-three, minus the security guards Xiao Li and me, as well as Fang Tong and Zuo Youcheng...... There should be twenty-nine people. ”

"If you remove the five people who died before, there are twenty-four." Zheng Rui leaned against the wall and said, "But I ...... yesterday Only thirteen corpses were seen. ”

"Or maybe someone else was gone before that." Benna comforted her.

Wrong.

- Definitely not.

Zheng Rui tried hard to recall the scene she saw at the time, but she could only remember the black and white images that had been harmlessly processed by the brain. But she was still able to extract some useful information from it: there was a basement with four people, a basement with three people, a basement with six people, and the remaining five basements...... is empty.

This seems to be in line with Benna's belief that someone left before the alien arrived, after all, the rainstorm may have affected the environment of the basement, and some basements had to take the risk of moving out entirely.

But...... She remembered the three empty basements very well, because there were no horrible corpses in them.

Zheng Rui clearly remembered that there was food on the table in the empty basement, and the daily necessities were not taken away. And except for the basement where the former boss of the other party was the first one she went to, in the basement where there were corpses, the cabinet drawers and the like were open.

It wasn't the work of the aliens, it could only be done by humans.
