returned to the city within a city, Chen Huiling's emotions were not as excited as she imagined, and she seemed to have a premonition about Wang Xiaoshuai's accident, but she didn't speak to anyone, silently bearing the pain of losing her lover.

Wang Xiaoshuai's funeral was actually very simple, and the people who participated were all familiar friends, such as the crew members who used to be with him, as well as many partners in the usual field team, and then a group of high-level officials in the city.

It was drizzling that day, and after the apocalypse, such weather was really very rare, and perhaps even the sky was filled with endless sadness about Wang Xiaoshuai's death.

And another person who is extremely sad is Xiaoqi, this man with complex emotions for her, left like this, she can't accept anything, it's her birthday soon, he obviously promised to give himself a special birthday gift, but what he waited for was heaven and earth......

Xingchen had tried his best to comfort him, but it was useless, Wei Hailan pushed him aside and took over the work of taking care of Xiaoqi, which also made Xingchen and Bai Qi have to stay alone in the empty room.

Chen Huiling has been hiding in the room since she showed her face at the funeral and has not come out, during which many people have gone to condole, and there are also worries that she will behave irrationally, she just signaled through the door that she is okay and needs to be quiet.

Although this incident has caused many people to fall into pain, but normal life still has to continue, the people who came back with the demon guy before saw the city in the city to deal with the funeral, and did not go out of their way to ask about the matter, anyway, two days after the good food and drink arrangement, Bai Qi officially received the two in the reception room.

"This is the White City Lord." The demon guy introduced, and then introduced the two to Bai Qi, "These two are Huo Xu and Qu Bao from the gathering place of the Morning Star. ”

Bai Qi, as the host, took the lead in saying, "I'm sorry two brothers, there have been some heart-wrenching things that have happened to us here recently, and we have been delayed for two days. ”

The one in charge of the two was obviously Huo Xu, and he hurriedly waved his hand, "Lord Baicheng is really polite, the last days of this dog day really make people suffer too much pain and pain that they dare not think about, we have eaten and drunk well in the past two days, but I am afraid that we will be reluctant to go back for a few more days." ”

"The Demon Guy should have been in contact with you, I don't know what we have proposed?" Bai Qi stopped talking nonsense and went straight to the point.

Huo Xu also straightened his body, "Brother Demon has already said that if we don't agree, we will never send the two of us here, in fact, there is no other meaning, to be honest, before we came to the city within the city, we always thought that the development was good, and we also attracted many survivors, and we were inevitably a little complacent in our hearts, thinking that there should be no stronger than us except for the gathering places established by the military or other regular organizations." When Brother Mo proposed to cooperate, we were even a little disdainful, the fact was that we slapped us in the face twice, and the development of the city within the city was simply enviable. ”

"The two brothers have won the award, everything we do is to let the survivors have a place to live, in fact, it goes on like this, and it is understandable to live comfortably every day, but in that case, the demise of mankind is already doomed, since we are the lucky ones in the last days, how can we let thousands of years of inheritance be lost in our hands, to say a righteous and awe-inspiring word, although my ability is limited, but I am also willing to make a contribution to the future of mankind, which I die, as long as I can save more people in the water and fire, There is no other thing to say. Bai Qi's tone was flat and not impassioned, but it also made people feel a little emotional when they heard it.

Huo Xu stood up and hugged his fists at Bai Qi and said, "Bai City Lord, just say this to you, our brothers are worth the trip." Our gathering place is called the morning star, which means to carry a ray of light for the future of mankind, since everyone's purpose is relatively consistent, mutual cooperation and development, it is naturally not a problem. ”

"If you fight separately, it is the next strategy after all, compared to what you have seen in the evolution of zombies, I can be sure that there are definitely higher-level zombies in places that we have not touched. And those mutated creatures are a major threat to our human survivors. Only by pooling forces can we form an effective counterattack force. ”

"That's right, White City Lord, we have also discovered a long time ago that the evolution of zombies is very fast as long as certain conditions are met. I once witnessed an ordinary zombie turn into a huge zombie in just two weeks, and it took half a month to become a higher-level zombie with red skin. If it weren't for our boss's immediate decision to order him to be besieged, I'm afraid it would have evolved. Huo Xu couldn't help but feel a little proud when he talked about besieging zombies, it was the highest-level zombie he had seen so far, and he besieged it for about 10 hours, and finally killed it, which can be described as a great achievement.

Bai Qi scolded secretly in his heart, "These idiots, waiting to become S+-level zombies before making a move, can they still make a decision immediately?" But on the surface, he still smiled and nodded, "Amazing, it seems that you are indeed very strong." Since we have all agreed to cooperate, I wonder when we will be able to meet with your leader and agree on the details? ”

"Let's go back and report the situation, Brother Demon gave us a communicator, and he will contact us as soon as possible." Huo Xu is also very urgent about the matter of cooperation, once the cooperative relationship is established, the materials can support each other, and their Daystar gathering place has also been cultivated, now it is only a foot-tall young seedling, I don't know when it will be harvested, and when the time comes, we must use some other materials to exchange some food with Chengzhong Chen, so that the brothers can eat a few meals of white rice.

Before leaving, Bai Qi directly sent them a pickup truck, and each of them sent a rifle, as well as some bullets, and the small body was also full of things, including the meat of a large guinea pig, some rice noodles, and fresh fruits.

Huo Xu grinned and held Bai Qi's hand, "White City Lord, it's really too polite." ”

"It's okay, even if we don't cooperate, let's get acquainted, just some small gifts, don't shirk it, hurry up on the road, pay attention to safety, and remember to contact the demon guy when you arrive." Bai Qi really didn't think there was anything about these things, except for fresh meat, the others were very ordinary things in the city, and now the momentum of development is rapid, and the breeding of big guinea pigs is also going very smoothly, and it won't be long before fresh meat is no longer a scarce material.

As soon as Huo Xu and Qu Bao were sent away, Yang Tianfu quickly ran to Bai Qi's side with a tablet, "Boss, it doesn't seem right!" ”

Bai Qi was stunned for a moment, looking at his appearance was really anxious, "What's the matter, don't panic, speak slowly." ”

"Look, the reality on this isn't quite right!" In his hand was a life detector, covered with tiny dots of light.

Bai Qi took it and looked at it for a long time, and gave it back to Yang Tianfu embarrassedly, because he couldn't see anything wrong at all, this thing had not been touched twice since Yang Tianfu made it at the beginning, and he could only scratch his head in embarrassment at this time, "You can explain to me what's going on." ”

"I've really convinced you, boss, every point of light represents a living form, you understand this, right?" Yang Tianfu could only explain to Bai Qi.

Bai Qi nodded, he knew this.

"Except for the ones that show the humans around them, these gray ones are rats! When I first made the life detector, I entered all the captured life signals into the database, and these points of light were undoubtedly mice. Yang Tianfu continued.

Bai Qi was still confused, looked at the screen, and said tentatively, "It's really a lot, otherwise let's get some rat poison or something, so many rats will definitely harm our food." ”

"Oh my boss, listen to me!" Yang Tianfu patted his head, "Because this thing is everywhere, in order to avoid affecting the future use, I blocked the mice with smaller life signals, and now they can be displayed on the screen, indicating that the life signals of these mice are at least the same level as the size of humans!" ”

At this time, Bai Qi understood a little, and the horror of the rat swarm in the secret research base appeared in his mind, "Damn! These are all human-sized mice? ”

Yang Tianfu saw that Bai Qi understood, so he nodded worriedly.

"Quick! Scourge the city to see how many there are! Notify me when you're done, and call an emergency meeting! Bai Qi also became nervous, and kept praying in his heart, these rats must not be some mutant species.

When the two were about to separate, Bai Qi asked again, "Is there any sweet news recently?" ”

Yang Tianfu didn't stop, turned his head and shook twice, and left.

At this time, how Bai Qi hoped that Tian Tian could be by his side, at least he could give him advice and help him out

Under pressure, and really worried about something happening to her on the side of the Summoning Army......

Two hours later, all the high-level leaders of the city within the city gathered again, and after Yang Tiandu's detection, the situation could be said to be very serious, because within the range of the city within the city, there were already countless life signals......

"Tianfu, tell me about the situation." Bai Qi said.

Yang Tianfu has adjusted the frequency of the large life detector covering the whole city, and the detection image is displayed on the big screen in the conference room.

"People who have used life detectors should know that this represents life, countless life signals, overlapping with us, it's not that there is a problem with the machine, but there are indeed countless life forms here, the reason why we can't see it is because in the underground, criss-crossing underground pipes, many people know that many people know that these sewers are the result of the major renovation of the drainage structure of City C after that time. And at this time, there are countless rats inside! The life signals are at least the same level as humans! ”
