Song Yizhou had been nesting in a dilapidated house for more than seven hours, and although it had been a while since dawn, he was still in a nervous mood, hesitating and not daring to walk out of the door easily.

Song Yizhou knew very sure that all the people in the special operations team were finished! He had seen the demons with his own eyes, and he could clearly hear the dying cries of the team members from the communicator, the screams of six different voices, which was the number of the team in this operation. As for him, he is not a fighter and does not belong to any of the combat groups. Moreover, with his unruly skills, he is not qualified to join the extremely powerful 'Descendants of Xuanyuan' among the survivors, let alone become a member of the four major knights under him, the 'Thunder Fire'.

Song Yizhou is a researcher. Chronicles, Theology, Occultism...... These are his strengths, and the most suitable job for a person like him should be a room with a desk, a chair, a computer, and a large amount of information and literature for reference, rather than a dangerous surface.

Yes, the land is dangerous, and almost two years ago, it became the devil's backyard.

"Damn it!" As soon as he thought of this mission, Song Yizhou felt that there was a fire burning in his chest, a fire of anger!

"Not all people who are engaged in research and have made some achievements in a short period of time are crazy people who forget to sleep and eat and are fearless for research, at least I am not!" This sentence was the wording that Song Yizhou was prepared to use to refuse to participate in this operation, but unfortunately, in the end, it could only become a cry buried in his heart. In extraordinary times, everyone who is alive must bear a responsibility, a very heavy responsibility, which includes three mouths in the family to support, including him. Unless he planned to starve his family of three to death, he couldn't refuse, and he couldn't refuse this mission.

Song Yizhou hopes that today will be a sunny day and the sun will shine. Although he knew that this wish was a bit extravagant, who didn't have a little unrealistic dream, or rather, fantasy?

There is always a gap between dreams and reality, through the gaps that are not completely covered by the curtains, Song Yizhou can clearly see the sky, gray, and vaguely see the drifting and changing of the clouds, just like a large piece of stagnant water blown by the wind, no matter how it ripples, it will not disappear. This is a chaotic cloud formed after the nuclear explosion, composed of a large amount of dust, and Song Yizhou knows in his heart that it is very likely that in his lifetime, he will never see the sun again.

Without sunlight, those zombies and demons can move around more unscrupulously, tirelessly looking for living humans, killing, eating, or becoming one of them.

"Phew! It's really fucking tightly linked! Song Yizhou stopped worrying about the future fate of mankind, and thought about how he would live first! His attention returned to the side street outside.

It is less than five meters wide, with broken walls and ruins on both sides, high and low, and rows of rows, so it is not wrong to call it an alley.

Song Yizhou counted, within thirty meters, there were 7 zombies roaming the side streets, not a lot, with the weapons in his hands, he was confident that he would deal with these monsters that had become ugly and corrupt due to the erosion of darkness.

Song Yizhou couldn't make a decision because he was afraid of those high-level monsters, those who were as insidious, cunning, vicious, and murderous in wisdom as human beings.

The monsters that attacked them in the early hours of the morning knew about his existence, and Song Yizhou had no doubt about this. What is waiting for the rabbit and luring the ...... This kind of trick, the demons will too, what Song Yizhou is afraid of is that he will become an example of proving this common sense once again.

In addition, although the alleys are not full of monsters like the main roads, the alleys are dangerous and can be caught off guard if monsters pounce from the houses on both sides of the alley. Even if it is the lowest zombie, it will be extremely dangerous to be entangled by it closely, and Song Yizhou knows that there are many people who die in a sneak attack like a monster.

Waiting for the rescue?

It doesn't seem to be a way, the remote communication equipment is not in his hands, God knows when the search and rescue team will be dispatched and how long it will take to search here! Who would have thought that a squad like them, composed of the best of the best, would be wiped out without even having a chance to call for help from the base?

Song Yizhou was undecided, he felt like gambling on the size, no matter which one he chose, the highest success rate was five or five, the problem was that he was gambling on his own life now!

That's when the drops! There was a soft sound from the earbud communication instrument, and for Song Yizhou, the light sound in this life was no less than the sound of heaven! The alarm sound of the GPS automatic positioning system, which means that there are other survivors within a radius of two kilometers, and, judging from the type of alarm call, it is still the same standard! "Could it be the other members of the Thunderfire on a mission?" Song Yizhou judged for the first time.

"Hey! I am a member of the Anshun Street base, numbered GDL44503, I was separated in the mission of cooperating with the Thunderfire Squad, I need help, please answer when I hear it......" Song Yizhou called in a low voice, although he was wearing a special fully enclosed helmet, he was still worried that his voice was too loud and would alarm the zombies outside the house.

Zombies, people have heard a kind of living dead with cocoons in their ears. This slow-moving, low-IQ guy seems to be able to take a sharpened stick and stab it in pair. In reality, this is an absolute misconception. In this world, zombies are already the devil's hounds, with a sense of smell and hearing far beyond ordinary people, and, as long as the limbs are sound, the strength and speed can basically reach 1.5 times that of ordinary people, and the strength of the body is far more than that of ordinary people.

Song Yizhou's call for help, the other side did not make any reply.

Song Yizhou called again.

The other party still did not answer.

"Do you hear me? Please answer! I need help! I'm stuck! Take me out of danger, whatever you ask, I can meet you! I promise, I won't let you down......" Song Yizhou's voice was full of begging.

"Alright! I'll try it, I'm not very good at using this positioning instrument. Picked up from a deceased man, he was right next to me. The other party finally responded, it was a man, his voice was slightly low, but with a magnetic sound, which sounded very pleasant.

"Oh thank goodness!" Excited, Song Yizhou's voice trembled a little. "The dead should be one of my companions, I'm near you, the limit range of the positioning sensor is 2 kilometers, the display is generally mounted on the left wrist, I hope it's still there, it can still be used!"

"Well, I found it!"

"Great! Press the green button on the left so that I can confirm your position, without life recognition authentication, the locator can only activate the passive function. ”

Soon, Song Yizhou saw the other party's location. "I'm at 10 o'clock to your west, and it's about 1,700 meters in a straight line!"

The other party didn't answer again, but through the display, Song Yizhou saw that the person had begun to rush to this side.

"Whew! Seems lucky! Song Yizhou was a little determined.

There was always a feeling of waiting for a long time, and like most people, Song Yizhou began to pass the time with cranky thoughts. "There is no communication device or locator, so he came to the surface to adventure, what kind of person is this? Surface survivors who haven't been incorporated into any of the bases? If so, then this person is too powerful! You know, it's been 22 months since the demons have fully occupied the surface, and it's been more than two years since the demons have survived this dangerous situation on their own. Or maybe it's a demon hunter from a remote city? It's unlikely, how can there be a demon hunter who doesn't even have the most basic equipment! Unless the city has been completely destroyed and has truly returned to the Stone Age or has been isolated from the rest of the world......"

To be able to engage in research work, of course, Song Yizhou can't be a stupid person, on the contrary, his insight and logical thinking ability are still relatively strong, and he can often deduce a lot of content from some details. Take this 'savior' who suddenly appeared as an example, just because he doesn't know how to use the positioning sensor and doesn't know how to report his identity number, Song Yizhou can judge that this person does not belong to this city, and even the two neighboring cities do not have his archives.

That alone would alarm all survivors.

People who yearn for darkness and try to gain power from demons and are willing to die for them have existed since ancient times, and in modern times, there are even more people like carp crossing the river. Those film and television media that artistize dark violence and blood have made many young people who have not experienced real cruel scenes associate this kind of negative things with words such as cool, dazzling, trendy, and exciting. Now that I think about it, it is very likely that there are real servants of the devil among them, who use this method to brainwash humanity and plant more and more seeds of darkness in the hearts of mankind.

It is precisely because of this that there are so many human traitors before and after the opening of the Abyss Gate that people are stunned. Now, in order to completely destroy the survivors, these human traitors known as the 'Demon Dogs' will use some insidious and cunning methods, such as impersonating the survivors who have not been recruited, entering the survivor base, destroying them from the inside or joining the monsters, and many survivor bases have suffered such losses, suffered heavy losses, or were destroyed.

However, as time went on, this tactic became more and more ineffective, and the bases now lived up to the chaos they had been, and people were quite wary of outsiders who intended to live for a long time, and even if they were numbered, they would be monitored, and in the early days, even the area of activity would be strictly restricted, let alone participate in major operations. After a long period of assessment, or kill enough monsters as a 'vote for the name', in exchange for trust.

Song Yizhou is also suspicious of this 'savior', not only because of the other party's 'debut' method, but also because of the other party's ability. Through the display, Song Yizhou found that this person was moving in a straight line, and it was very fast! This is the ruins of the city, and there are N buildings blocking him from the location of the other party. If you can move in a straight line between the ruins and ruins, will the opponent fly? Could it be the 'Storm Apostle' in 'Sorcer'? Even the Apostle of the Storm can't come so blatantly! Isn't this the same as an antelope howling loudly while passing through the territory of the lions?

Despite his suspicions, Song Yizhou did not intend to let go of this 'life-saving straw', "Even if it is a demon dog, before he successfully invades the base, he needs to be his own introducer, so the more problematic the identity of the other party, the safer he is!" With such thoughts, Song Yizhou waited for the appearance of the rescuer.

In about twenty minutes, the Rescuer appeared, accompanied by several black arcs of light.

Passing by the arc, several zombies on the side street, all of them were in different places, and it was not difficult to see from their reactions that these monsters had already died before they even figured out the situation.

"What a sharp cut! This seems to be a means only available to the 'Blade Warriors' in the 'Armor', but the dark magic energy attached to the sword is not like the one provided by the Energy Festival, but more like the means of a sorcerer! With that black arc light alone, Song Yizhou saw a lot of clues, the combination of a warrior and a sorcerer, he had never heard of such an ability!

"How long are you going to stay in that room?" The rescuer looked in the direction of Song Yizhou and expressed his dissatisfaction with the communicator, in his opinion, as a human who appeared on the surface, Song Yizhou's performance was too cowardly. In such a place where he thought that the threat value was only 1, Song Yizhou only knew how to defend it! The rescuer couldn't think of how such a coward would get out of trouble without outside rescue! Wait until you are hungry until your limbs are weak and your head and eyes are dizzy before you desperately break through? Or simply starved to death inside?

Jumping out of the temporary bunker stacked with furniture, Song Yizhou trotted all the way, swooped, went down the second floor, rushed out of the small courtyard, and came to the street. At the same time, I didn't forget to look around, and when I saw that none of the living monsters could be seen, I put the hanging heart back into my stomach.

"Thank you very much, really, thank you, my name is Song Yizhou!" Song Yizhou stretched out his hand to the rescuer.

"Luo Ling!" The rescuer also stretched out his hand and simply shook it with Song Yizhou, or rather, touched it.

"Hello, hello!" Song Yizhou showed enough enthusiasm and tried to make as many 'bun folds' as possible on his face. "I'm so lucky to have met you! As you can probably tell, I'm not a fighter, and in fact, I don't have many cases where I've been helpless to call for help. This time, it's because all the members of the battle team who went out with me died! Who would have thought that the members of the elite team of Xuanyuan's descendants, Lei Huo, would be killed and would not even have time to ask for help! The demons that attacked us, I feel terrible just thinking about what they look like! Song Yizhou said, shivering involuntarily.

While speaking, Song Yizhou observed the rescuer very carefully: he was not tall, about 178CM, and his physique did not match that of a strong and burly man, and it was obvious that he had not undergone any strengthening and transformation of the armor class. As for the clothes and equipment on the body, the shoes are the reinforced leather boots of the apprentice 'sniper', the pants are the multi-pocket pants of the sorcerer, and the styles are all old, as for the upper body armor, it seems that only the 'tech sapper' of the previous year would wear this kind of 'iron vest' with strips of alloy armor and maintenance parts kits.

"Which ancient corpse did you peel such a set of garbage from and drape it on yourself?" Song Yizhou muttered in his heart.

Looking up again, the appearance of this person's head is even worse, like a masked Arab, Song Yizhou really can't think of what the black veil that covers his mouth and nose can do except slightly block some dust. Keeping it mysterious? You don't need it! In the eyes of monsters, there is not much difference between whether humans are male or female, and what they look like, just like humans don't care if a pig has double eyelids.

What made Song Yizhou fall the most was the weapon used by the rescuer, carrying a knife, which looked like it was homemade, and it was very unruly, the pig-killing knife was not a pig-killing knife, the Yanling knife was not a Yanling knife, crooked, and there was a bit of the taste of chopping and slashing, the only advantage was that it looked cold and infiltrating. "Ancestral antiques are not like knives?!" Song Yizhou speculated.

The rescuer carried not only a knife, but also a gun. The structure of this gun is obviously a triangular pyramid with a bleeding groove at both ends of the six-point iron pipe, in order to allow the triangular pyramid to be screwed with the spiral buckle on the water pipe, the bottom of the triangular pyramid is welded together with an iron live buckle, and the workmanship is called a rough! Song Yizhou wondered, was this a plumber? And it is also the kind of border wasteland, N A long time ago, similar live buckles and water pipes were replaced by PVC and PPR pipes, and perhaps only the border areas still have this kind of iron inventory!

The gun carried by the rescuer is by no means a kind, there is also a gun that is also called, a sniper rifle, the standard 'wolf tooth III' sniper gun used by the standard 'sniper', this is the best, no need for identification and certification of the sniper gun, the general trainee sniper uses this, cheap, easy to maintain, simple to use, large magazine capacity...... Of course, the corresponding to it is that the sound is loud when shooting, the position is easy to be exposed, the accuracy is poor, the power is low, and the firing frequency is low......

The rescuer was also carrying a bag, the kind of backpack used for folk tourism, with two straps, bulging, I don't know what it contained.

After observing, Song Yizhou could see that the person in front of him was a typical fleeing native! It's all dressed and messed up! I've seen someone who looks dirty, but I've never seen anyone more filthy than this one! "This guy isn't a savage explorer from the primeval forest, is he?" Song Yizhou thought a little maliciously.

"To the base?" Luo Ling urged with some impatience. He didn't like the look in the eyes of the guy in front of him, like looking at a caged beast in a zoo, it was too rare and weird!

Hearing the word base, Song Yizhou's vigilance increased again. "The coincidental rescue that has not happened in ten years and nine times has allowed me to catch up, could this be another magic dog changing its way to break into the survivors?"

After being more convinced of such an idea, Song Yizhou was not in a hurry to go back, "I'm afraid we can't go back like this!" He said to Luo Ling with an embarrassed face: "Our mission this time is very important, Lei Huo sent an elite team out, and let me accompany a research-type burden, the purpose is to find my mentor, Professor Li." Of course, we don't have the ability to continue this mission now, but at least we have to bring back to the base the important clues carried by the elite team to find Professor Li, that is the only one, without it, to find Professor Li is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack! ”

Of course, Song Yizhou didn't tell the truth, there was no only important clue at all, he just wanted to get back the 'black box', give himself the reason for his life, and find more adequate evidence.

Luo Ling frowned, what Song Yizhou said was not very difficult, it was just to find the bodies of some people, I believe it would not be very far from here, but Luo Ling didn't like Song Yizhou's approach, he didn't make it clear a long time ago, and only now did he add conditions!

As if to understand why Luo Ling was displeased, Song Yizhou explained: "You know, in order to prevent the 'magic dog' from penetrating the survivors, all bases are very strict against outsiders, and I actually don't want to take risks, so I made this choice so that I can talk better when I go back!" After all, you helped find the only clue to find Professor Li, which will help improve people's perception of you......"

"Lead the way!" After thinking for a moment, Luo Ling decided to put up with it, he had been traveling alone for too long, and he was extremely tired in both his mental state and physical condition, and he urgently needed a safe harbor to rest.

Song Yizhou is still relatively familiar with this city where he has lived for nearly 30 years, and he is looking for his comrades-in-arms, so he is naturally duty-bound to be a guide.

Song Yizhou identified the direction and beckoned Luo Ling: "This way!" The two of them traveled south along the alley, which was part of Song Yizhou's early morning escape route, and all they had to do now was to follow the route back.

Luo Ling's cold attitude made Song Yizhou unable to raise the slightest interest in talking, not to mention that there was danger at any time now, and Song Yizhou did not dare to be careless. Holding the XM41-'Burst Flame' machine gun, when Song Yizhou acted, he unconsciously imitated those snipers from special forces, of course, it was just an appearance, and it seemed a bit of a thief's brain.

IN COMPARISON, LUO LING IS MUCH MORE FEARLESS, HOLDING A KNIFE IN HIS RIGHT HAND AND A SPEAR GUN WITH A LENGTH OF 150CM IN HIS LEFT HAND. It's just that he strides unhurriedly, but he needs Song Yizhou to trot to keep up, which makes Song Yizhou quite puzzled. "The legendary descendants of Kwafu plus the wild man sliding? ……”

The entire city has been devastated, mainly due to the earthquake that occurred when the Abyssal Gate was opened. In addition, the urban battles and street battles between the survivors and the monsters are also indispensable to increase the destruction of the city. In short, it is now full of wreckage and ruins, some of the original road surfaces have been arched several meters high, or even more than ten meters high, into slopes, cliffs, blocking the road, and some are artificial barriers such as cars and flood control concrete strips in the middle of the road, which used to be a line of defense against monsters, and now, together with the broken road surface, has turned the city into a natural adventure labyrinth.

Different from ordinary earthquakes, in this city, there are some unique relics, clusters of unique cracks, the appearance is like a crack with an upward arch, the diameter is generally not more than two meters, the crack emits a lava-like light and transpiration and distortion of faint black smoke all day long, such a landscape called spatial scars are all over the streets and alleys, not only on the ground, but also on the walls, and even suspended in the air like a brilliant pom-pom flower, giving people the feeling that the whole space is broken, full of wounds and cracks.

Like those low-level monsters that have turned into zombies, not all the lives that originally belonged to this world are dead, such as the most common plants, affected by the magic energy leaked from countless spatial wounds, many plants have changed to a new way of living, some have become concoctions in the recipes of demons, and others have become as dangerous as demons, eating meat, sucking blood, living people, and even low-level demons are their targets.

"Wow!" A zombie found the food and swept out from behind the broken wall of a small courtyard, its teeth and claws, like a predatory beast.

Burst! Luo Ling's reaction was much faster than Song Yizhou's, and he caught up with a shot and stabbed it directly into the zombie's mouth, and the tip of the gun protruded from the back of his head with a handful of black blood mist and minced meat.

"Shhh Song Yizhou shuddered again, this shot was too violent.

The zombie has been picked up and landed in the back manger of a scrapped garbage truck not far away. Stir up some dust, and there is no movement.

The noise was not too loud and seemed very abrupt on the windy howling street, and after more than ten seconds, seven or eight alarmed zombies had already appeared in the field of vision of the two.

"Kara!" Song Yizhou pulled the bolt and was about to shoot. was held down by Luo Ling. "I'm coming!" Luo Ling said and swept out.

Song Yizhou knew what Luo Ling was worried about, and the sound of gunfire would only make more monsters aware of their existence, so it was better to use this kind of weapon in Song Yizhou's hand, which was okay but too noisy.

For a martial arts layman like Song Yizhou, Luo Ling's fighting method is two words - sharp! Just like the war knife he wielded in his hand, it made people look at his body hair standing on end.

Luo Ling's rushing action is very explosive and terrifying, that kind of irresistible momentum, as if there is a mountain in front of him, it can also split, even a river, it can also be broken.

is like the primer of a firing pin hitting a bullet, Luo Ling's every violent action will inevitably result in the death of a zombie, which is a rhythmic, intermittent, calm but violent killing, which makes people see the blood-boiling crit, absolutely cut in two.

The zombies' gray, rough as old bark, and with some kind of faint magic light, couldn't resist Luo Ling's slashing and stabbing at all, and in a few breaths, they were chopped over by Luo Ling like chopping melons and vegetables.

Shout! With a knife roar, the black blood disappeared with the swing of the knife, revealing the cold and swallowing again.

Song Yizhou, who crossed Luo Ling with a gun and continued to move forward, gave him a thumbs up.

Along the way, the luck of the two was quite good, except for a few zombies that were not eye-opening, which were solved by Luo Ling in a few clicks, and they did not encounter a single high-level monster. Ten minutes later, in a small park in a residential area, Song Yizhou found the bodies of four people, including the leader of the operation team.

The death of the four men was terrible, two heads were in different places, one was cut in two by the waist, the other was torn apart by sharp claws, and the internal organs were covered with blood and flesh.

Dealing with a few zombies that were eating corpses, Luo Ling squinted his eyes and paced vigilantly, seemingly aimless, as if he was looking for something.

Song Yizhou groped and rummaged on the captain's body, and after a while, he got a metal strip shaped like a closed paper fan, this thing is obviously a product of science and technology, the thumb is thin, two fingers wide, 20CM long, regular, tight, the gap is an elongated Z, one of the top has an unknown protrusion buckle, and the side of the horizontal side is down, and a digital button exudes a blue light.

Luo Ling saw that as soon as Song Yizhou raised his hand, the thing disappeared without a trace, and at the same time, a strange instrument the size of a palm appeared in Song Yizhou's hand.

The instrument seemed to be electronically driven, and in the sound of electrical appliances, the instrument expanded, with an antenna pot-shaped transmitter at the front, and a pistol-like grip at the back, Song Yizhou shone back and forth on the armor worn by the corpse, and the originally bright armor surface quickly lost its luster and produced countless tiny cracks, like overheated adobe, dim, and several of the convex and depressions on the armor that radiated or flashed with magic light also extinguished the light, and a few finger-sized condensations and energy beads appeared on the surface of the armor.

Seeing Luo Ling looking at him, Song Yizhou said with a little embarrassment: "In addition to people, the survivor organization lacks everything, these are the essence and special materials that constitute the magic energy armor, instead of burying the dead, it is better to pass it on to the living." As he spoke, he raised the instrument in his hand again, "Dissociator!" ”

As he spoke, Song Yizhou took off a wrist wheel with an electronic buckle from the deceased's wrist, "Space Ring!" The product of science and technology combined with magic, used to store items, like the one carried by the combat members of Thunder and Fire, there are about 3 cubic spaces inside, but unfortunately there is a special locking system, which ordinary people can't open, or they can give you one, this thing is expensive, and now it can only be handed over as a relic. ”

Just when Song Yizhou was babbling and explaining, Luo Ling suddenly stepped forward and kicked Song Yizhou more than three meters away.

In the next second, a black shadow fell from the sky, poof! The dust was flying, the sparks were flickering, and a blue-purple sword with a slender willow blade with a curved tip fell into the air and slashed to the ground.

The embarrassed Song Yizhou turned around and looked at it, and exclaimed: "Spirit Demon Assassin!" ”
