Chapter 0064: Into the City
On the desolate national highway, all kinds of vehicles are congested into a queue of vehicles.
From time to time, different mutated creatures wander aimlessly along the road.
The human corpses everywhere were gnawed down to the mutilated skeletons.
"Baa Baa ......"
In the grass, a frightened cry suddenly sounded, and then a large group of mutant goats appeared.
The leading mutant goat, nearly three meters tall, struggled to jump over the barrier on the side of the road, stepped on the roof of the car in front of him with his front hooves, jumped high and fled to the west.
A black lightning bolt streaked through the void, and the lynx alien that burst out of the grass swooped down, and its slender but strong body swooped down, directly knocking the leading mutant goat to the ground.
"Peng!"
As soon as the body hit the ground, the bobcat alien burst into the inner nest tooth in its mouth, and the mutant goat's head exploded.
More aliens ran out of the grass and caught up with the sheep behind them, their claws and tails at the same time, flesh flying.
In a matter of seconds, more than a dozen mutant goats were completely dismembered.
"Huh!"
Jumping out of the grass, Yunhai jumped onto the roof of a bus.
Immediately after, the Spider Alien Queen flew out like a cannonball and landed heavily on the cab of a truck next to him.
Eight thick and sharp limbs and feet directly pierced the roof steel plate.
On the trembling giant kiss, a pair of crab claw-like claws grabbed half a mutant goat, and the terrifying inner nest teeth kept poking out and tearing off a piece of flesh and shrinking back.
Immediately afterwards, the tiger armor alien also appeared, and in a "hissing" sound, he pounced in front of the corpse of a mutated goat.
A few of the acid-spraying messengers that were eating gave up their food and let it bury its head to eat.
On the back of the tiger armor alien, the alien queen hugged the face worm and jumped down, and her thin and slender body almost completely burrowed into the sheep carcass and chewed it.
The amount of food is not large, and no matter how much you eat, the queen's face-hugging insect will not grow at all.
It feeds only to maintain its physical strength, to live as long as possible in the state of the face-hugging worm, so that in the future, it can parasitize excellent hosts under the orders of the master, or autonomously.
"Hurry up and eat, I'm going to City A soon."
In the spiritual exchange, the command was issued to all the aliens, and the sea of clouds looked far away at City A, which was still blocked by the shade of greenery and could not be seen.
It is not much larger than the small Yangshan County and City A, and Yunhai estimates that if you go there, you can probably know what the outside world is like now.
Figuring out the situation, he could better decide what way to rush to Qin Province, or to make contact with humans.
After leaving Yangshan County, he ran for hundreds of kilometers in a row, although the alien army was not tired, but considering that the situation in City A was unknown, it was always wrong to eat as much as possible to replenish energy.
Not long after, the dozens of mutant goats that survived from the farm were eaten by the aliens, even the belt bones.
All the aliens gathered up, jumped up, and the sea of clouds fell on the back of the bobcat alien, and then gave a spiritual order and quickly moved forward under the shade of the trees on the side of the road.
The other aliens jumped off the national highway and scurried up from the woods and grass.
I am still worried that the alien was photographed by the satellites in the sky, and I am also anxious to find the clouds, otherwise the sea of clouds will not be in a hurry during the day.
At the current rate, Yunhai estimates that if the journey goes smoothly, from Gui Province to Qin Province, let the alien eat and rest a few times in the middle, two or three days should be enough.
This is the alien, when stationary almost no energy is consumed, the energy consumed in strenuous exercise is far less than that of other creatures, it can be said that as long as they are full, they can travel for a long time with high intensity and non-stop.
I don't know fear, and I don't tire of it.
The speed of travel is quite fast, and it doesn't take time for the sea of clouds to reach the edge of City A.
Ordering the Bobcat Alien to run into the woods and stop, he raised his wrist to look at the time, and a hint of hesitation flashed across his face.
There are still more than two hours before dark.
If you go into City A alone, there will definitely be danger.
There are definitely quite a few parasitic mutants, and perhaps mutant rats, including many more survivors.
In hand-to-hand combat, Yunhai is not afraid of anyone, even if it is an evolutionary.
But he had to think about firearms, not to mention what caliber of bullets the alien could block, and his human body, if he was hit in the head by a bullet from a pistol, he had to play in an instant.
After all, this is not Yangshan County, it is impossible to find a sniper rifle, he must consider the ugliness and darkness of human nature.
Entering with the alien, Yunhai was even more worried.
City A is so big, there are definitely a lot of survivors, and his alien sense, the distance he can spy on is limited.
If ordinary people discover the existence of aliens, the problem is not very big, and between the trade-offs, Yunhai knows it.
But if it is discovered by the military, even if he ruthlessly kills him, if the military has communication equipment to spread the news, it will be annoying.
After thinking about it, when his eyes fell on the branch river of Qingjiang that ran through City A, Yunhai's eyes couldn't help but light up.
Aliens can adapt to all harsh environments, not to mention rivers.
In the alien perception, the river, which was several times clearer than before the end of the world, did not exist too large the light and shadow of life, and the sea of clouds immediately issued a spiritual order.
One by one, the aliens ran out of the grass and woods, and silently dived into the river.
When the last team of thirty spurting aliens also went down the river, Yunhai jumped off the back of the bobcat alien, and when it also dived into the water, it carefully ran along the river towards City A.
These thirty acid-spitting aliens, in his heart, are the main force of alien sneak attacks and long-range killing.
If it weren't for the fact that it takes time to wait for the alien hatchlings to grow, Yunhai would still want to get more acid-spraying aliens in Yangshan County Park.
The Spider Alien Queen is very powerful, and its huge belly covered by hard bone plates is pregnant with a large number of alien embryos.
Even if all the parasitism is done at once, as long as there is enough food to replenish energy, it can give birth to new alien embryos almost continuously, at least three to five per hour.
And more importantly, after the alien embryo parasitizes the host, the time to grow and break the breast is also greatly shortened.
The original queen gave birth to the alien eggs, and after the face-hugging insects parasitized the host, it took six hours for the alien larvae to break their chests.
It only takes three hours for the Spider Alien Queen to implant the host's alien embryo.
The time has been cut in half, and the efficiency has been greatly improved.
Moreover, the spider alien queen, depending on the size of the host's body, can inject multiple alien embryos at a time, and the host utilization rate is higher.
It can be said that the speed of the Spider Alien Queen's violent soldiers far exceeds that of the Alien Queen of Yangshan, even if the latter's spawning speed is also improving, but the parasitic mode and host utilization rate, there is a big difference between the two queens.
Running cautiously from the river to City A, his eyes fell on the dark shadow in the river, and Yunhai only felt extremely solid in his heart.
Gathering his mind, the alien perception was completely released, and he carefully probed everything around him.
It is larger than Yangshan County, but today's City A is completely an enlarged version of Yangshan County.
The mutated creatures that occasionally wander the city are nothing more than dogs, cats, cows, and sheep, and they feel their presence in advance, and the sea of clouds is far away.
In pre-apocalyptic China, the ecological environment was extremely damaged.
Except in national forest parks, or wildlife sanctuaries, in most places, it is difficult to see other creatures, let alone predators.
Until the sea of clouds left in Yangshan, there was not a single beast encountered, and it can be imagined in the city.
The most mutated animals must still be cats, dogs and human breeding animals, all the way from Yangshan to City A, Yunhai did not see a single beast at all.
From time to time, dark shadows passed by in the sky, of different sizes.
Perhaps there was no shortage of food, or perhaps they had amazing eyesight, and they condescended to see the anomalies in the river, and most of the mutated birds just hovered in the sky above the sea of clouds for a moment, and finally waved their wings away, and did not swoop down.
Insects of all shapes and colors, as small as a dollar coin, as big as a baby's head, and the barren city became a paradise for them.
From time to time, human corpses appear on the roadside, mutilated.
Dilapidated and congested traffic, bloodstained shop windows, dense vegetation, messy shops, supermarkets......
Along the river, the sharp eyes of the sea of clouds kept probing around, and in the heavier alien senses, they were carefully alert to all possible crises.
Suddenly, in the perception of alienation, it was extremely steep, and the sea of clouds took off the strong bow on his back almost at the same time, put on the long arrow and turned to aim in the northwest direction.
"Meow ......"
In the shrill hissing, a mutant cat rushed out of the car 4S shop on the side of the road.
With a body length of only about one and a half meters, it is clear that the cat's evolutionary mutation is not high.
The sturdy body bounced out, jumped out for more than ten meters, and the mutant cat fell to the ground and rushed towards the sea of clouds.
"Whew!"
The strong bow was drawn into a full moon, and there were still a hundred meters apart, and the long arrow flew angrily towards the mutant cat with the momentum of thunder and lightning.
A hint of humanized panic flashed in his crimson eyes, and as he watched the long arrow come straight at him with a string of afterimages, the mutant cat subconsciously twisted its body to avoid it, and raised its front paws at the same time......
"Poof!"
The sharp arrow slashed through the sky at incredible speed, easily piercing the mutant cat's claws, and the shaft of the arrow broke through the flesh and stabbed it into the forehead.
The brain tissue was destroyed in an instant, and the mutant cat rushed down from the river, and the blood-spattered head hit the stone fence of the river, and then died with a whimper.
"It's much easier to use than that broken gun, there is no sound yet, and I'm not afraid of alarming others."
Yun Hai jumped over and stepped on its head, pulling out the long arrow and putting it back into the quiver made of animal skin on its back.
There was a smile on his face, not to mention his smug reaction and skills just now, at least he was extremely satisfied with the seemingly rough hunting bow.
"Bang ......"
"Dada......"
Before he could turn around and leave, a fierce gunshot suddenly rang out in the sky above the ghost-like city of A.
The pupils shrank slightly, and before the sea of clouds could make a decision, there was a sudden change in the calm flowing river at the same time.
