Volume 1 Cataclysm Chapter 14 Light and Darkness
After dinner, Cui Shengzhi reported to Aier again, Mo Xuan listened for a while, understood a general idea, then took a bottle of wine, came to the large terrace above the third floor of his house, sat on a deck chair, and looked at the sea level.
It's a busy day, so it's a very comfortable time, and the country has specially introduced the kind of light-emitting microorganisms from the Maldives, so you can often see the coastline with a pale blue fluorescence.
The entire city was largely plunged into darkness, and the sight of the city that never sleeps was no longer visible, except for the buildings that were required to have an emergency energy supply according to the regulations, still emitting light.
Unworthy.
He remembered that Hamura had said that the prevalence of Kersto was much lower, but the situation was probably not just as optimistic as the data explained, and when he thought of this, Mo Xuan was a little upset, and he recognized the fact that he couldn't save everyone. In fact, he couldn't cope with the situation in the hotel this afternoon.
Su Hao didn't know when he walked behind him, and his hand gently put on his shoulder. Mo Xuan turned his head, saw her face, smiled slightly, and hugged her into his arms. Su Hao was a little shy, and the pear vortex smiled beautifully.
"Am I supposed to be late?" When Al came up, he teased.
"It's okay, just say anything." Su Hao wanted to get up, but was firmly held in the crook of his arm by Mo Xuan.
"We need medicines, especially bruises and psychotropic drugs."
"Spiritual? Downer? β
"Fluoxetine and stimulants."
"The hospital is afraid to go, there are too many people, and there are no stimulant pharmacies."
"It depends. And then there's the matter of clothes to be solved a little faster. β
"I can't go back to school, I have to wait until tomorrow to go to the gun shop to get the goods, and then organize a large-scale operation to go to the city center to grab it, and you will give me the size of the person who needs clothes later."
"It's just that the rope is burned, so it's not too much of a problem."
"There may have been another explosion inside the school after I left, and it is likely that someone is causing trouble."
"Okay, it's good for you to command when you go out on a front-line mission, but tomorrow you must solve the problem of clothes, the weather is gradually getting hotter, and even wearing no clothes will affect the team's mood very much."
"You've also taken into account the mood of the team, which is good. I think you can have some entertainment to set the mood up with some fun. β
"Okay, I'll think about it, one last thing, it's raining today."
"So?"
"Anna said the rain...... It's a bit not so good. And then we didn't catch the rain. β
"How did she become a goddess...... Does she have Gypsy ancestry? Otherwise, let Su Long show her if she has psychological problems. β
"I showed it to her, and she's acting pretty normal." Su Hao said, "I did a psychological assessment for everyone except for the field today, and then just made a diagnosis for your team members, except for Hood and you, I think it's okay, it's normal for others to have some changes, and the specific situation needs to be observed, so I will give you a psychological assessment on a regular basis." β
"When did you give me an assessment?" Mo Xuan smiled dumbly.
"Your body is too tense and your facial expressions are heavy." Su Hao explained.
"Hood...... He doesn't look like a person who has psychological problems. β
"He's a little, how to say it, perverted, it's normal for Su Hao to feel weird." Al teased.
"I'm Gan! As soon as I came up, I heard you slandering me, but I died and the whole family is okay, of course there are some changes. Hood seemed to burst out and shouted loudly.
"Look, that's where it's strange about you, that after someone else's family dies, you're so happy to go around talking to someone?" Aier said disdainfully.
"Everyone's emergency response is different, and that's normal." Hood is still arguing.
"You can pull it."
"Hood...... I shouldn't have pressed you about this afternoon, I'm sorry. Mo Xuan let go of his embrace, stood up, and said to Hood.
Hood's face became much more serious all of a sudden, he looked at Mo Xuan seriously, and said after a while, "You should thank me." Then he left the terrace, leaving only one of these unexplained words.
Aier made a questioning expression at Mo Xuan, Mo Xuan shrugged his shoulders and showed that he didn't know, and then Aier also left the terrace.
Su Hao wrapped his arms around Mo Xuan's waist and whispered in Mo Xuan's ear: "His ability to control emotions is too strong, and he has just experienced the great changes in society and family, and his expression is not abnormal at all, which is too strange." I think he's not normal because he's so normal now. When he said this, Su Hao's face had some concern.
"What about mine?" Mo Xuan turned his face sideways and kissed her and asked.
"You...... Becomes so indecisive and very nervous. I don't quite understand why. β
"It's normal to be nervous when something like this happens, but if you're indecisive...... In the past, I was not gentle because the success and failure at that time were not linked to life, and human life was in my hands, so I couldn't help it. β
"You've matured." Su Hao smiled.
Mo Xuan smiled helplessly, sighed lightly and said, "If you can, who doesn't want to be naΓ―ve all the time." Have a drink? β
"No, raise a glass to eliminate sorrow, you drink less. I also have to endorse to prevent emergencies. β
"Do you still have medical books?"
"You still have the Internet at home, and I don't know when it will be cut off, so I ordered some books of all kinds that I needed."
"Good work." Mo Xuan looked at his girlfriend and suddenly felt a little proud.
Su Hao laughed crisply, told him to pay attention to safety, and left the terrace.
"There are zombies!" Emily's screams pierced the quiet night sky.
"What are you panicking about, it can jump over the wall and bite you." Hood's lazy voice sounded beside him, and after a while, he probably found the zombie as well, and said, "I'm so big." β
Mo Xuan came to the edge and saw the zombie who might be about three hundred pounds, as if he was attracted by the light, and walked towards this side tremblingly.
"Turn off the lights." Mo Xuan said below.
One by one, the lights went out, and no one made a sound. In the tranquility, he heard the sound of Yucun drawing his knife out of its sheath, Mo Xuan told him not to be impulsive, Xu Chu rushed up and handed him the gun.
He picked up the gun and killed the fat zombie.
The lights came back on, and Mo Xuan walked downstairs, and Hood said that this thing is disgusting enough, and whoever cleans it up tomorrow will be unlucky.
Ivan, who was in charge of the fortifications, had a green face, and in the afternoon Al told him that the cleanliness and safety of the surroundings were his responsibility.
"Judging by this walking corpse's weight and movement speed, he shouldn't be here, or we should be able to see it when we get back." Choi Sung-ji began to analyze.
"This is the son of a rich man from the family next door, who seems to be obese." Mo Xuan explained.
"Zombieization has allowed him to regain the ability to travel long distances, which is really a touching antidote to the world." Hood began to whine again.
Pity...... The man who would mercilessly taunt him "You're so" is gone.
"Can we connect all these villas into a big camp." Xu Chu asked.
"And then start guarding the field?" Hood asked rhetorically.
"This ...... Isn't it good? Xu Chu was a little weak when he asked.
Hood made a Chinese expression to everyone.
"The project is huge, and you can connect the nearest two buildings first." Aier thought for a moment and said.
βwhatοΌ Did you really say yes? Hood couldn't believe it.
"There are not enough places and beds, so that's all, and with a big stronghold, we can save more people." Mo Xuan agreed.
"Touching Tinder of Civilization Project." Hood gave their proposal an unscrupulous name.
"I'll talk about that later...... I'll get this here right first. Ivan said a little embarrassed.
"Well, I'm just telling you about future plans, and you should pay attention to them when you design." Al nodded, signaling not to rush.
"Who's going to do the vigil now?" Scott asked.
"If it's possible to wield knives and guns, it's all under your field control." Al now had a small notebook in which everything was recorded, and she looked at it, and when the matter was almost settled, she stretched out and prepared to take a rest.
The delicate curves look at the omega straight swallowing saliva.
"Don't treat the field as a human being." Hood wailed, then he looked at Venus with a wicked smile and asked, "Do you regret it?" β
Venus gave him a middle finger and said he had gone to sleep first.
"It's only seven o'clock?" Hood wondered.
"The first batch stayed until two o'clock in the morning, and the second group stayed until eight o'clock. If you stay with the second batch, you can sleep more now. Mo Xuan said to him.
"Then it must be comfortable to keep vigil with my sister, I'm going to sleep."
"If you keep the second batch, I'll keep the first batch." Venus's voice came from above.
"Cut, do you think I don't like you?" Hu De began to rush into the Chinese dialect angrily.
"Shall I keep a vigil with you?" Choi Sung-ji asked.
"No, six people are exactly three in a batch, you go to sleep. Hamura, Scott, you also go and rest first. Mo Xuan patted him on the shoulder. Choi Sung-ji nodded and left to find a nighttime pastime, while Hamura and Scott could only go to sleep honestly.
"Who is generating this electricity now?" Boredom is also boring, it is better to speak, Xu Chu picked a talk.
"I don't know, you'll have to ask Al." He really asked the wrong person.
"Idle people are generating electricity." Omega happened to pass by and laughed.
"Then you're going to have a hard day." Mo Xuan responded.
"Indeed."
β¦β¦
There was nothing to do all night, that is, the field team members felt that something was going to happen if they continued like this, and who could stand it with six hours of sleep a day and high-intensity labor. So Scott and Hood instigated Mo Xuan to negotiate, and they didn't even know how to get Venus to join the ranks.
"You're going to object to my."
"Girls stay up late and get old fast."
ββ¦β¦ I join. β
Later, there was no way, because there was really no way to be annoyed, Mo Xuan went to Aier to discuss and decided that Omega, Cui Shengzhi and Mohan also joined the vigil, Venus enjoyed the lady's privilege and no longer needed the vigil, which made Hood, who instigated him, itch his teeth.
After that, it was decided to have two people per batch, two groups one night, and the other two groups to sleep well.
The windfall was because Omega was too idle, and he was also assigned to the field team, on the grounds that it would not work in case the car broke down outside, so he took him with him, although Mohan was also idle, but he wore glasses and was not good at going out on duty, so he worked as a coolie at home.
The next day, the fourth day after the outbreak of the zombie crisis, Ivan found Mo Xuan before they set off and asked them to bring back some axes and saws, otherwise they could only tear down the east wall and repair the west wall with a hammer wrench, and they would not be able to cut down trees and strengthen them.
"Wouldn't that also have a tooling table for processing?" Mo Xuan wondered, he thought to himself that it would be too difficult to say this.
"No, it's just barely enough to make a board, and now it's not so particular." Ivan was relieved.
"It's a bit much, I see the situation, if we get the goods later, there should be a tactical axe in it."
"And the Holy Sword of Physics." Hood teased.
"Please." Ivan's words suddenly became more and more intense.
β¦β¦
Regained his strength, and today in the lobby of the hotel, Mo Xuan took a knife to pierce the heads that were still opening and closing through his brain one by one.
When he came to the front desk, he found a room card, which was a very good house number he wrote down yesterday. Then he looked at the other unsightly room card and pondered for a moment.
"Why did I refuse to let Xu Chu get the room card yesterday? There's a universal ...... for this."
Mo Xuan slapped himself lightly. Got on the elevator.
According to the laws of Atlantis, the emergency power supply of a four-star hotel can be urgently supplied to the hotel for at least seven days at full capacity, and half a month for a five-star hotel.
If you have a five-star rating or more, you must have a power generation device that you can operate on your own.
So at present, Mo Xuan doesn't have to climb the stairs.
Coming to the roof, Mo Xuan came to the edge and made a gesture, then went back to the tenth floor to find the suite, first made sure that there was no loss in the room, then came to the curtain out, and set up the gun under the cover of the curtain, this time it was very hidden, so that this time Hood almost didn't find him when he got out of the car to observe the position, and thought he was passive and slacking off.
The goods were relatively smooth, and Hood tapped it, and there were a total of 20 axes, 20 crowbars, 1,000 rounds of 12-gauge rubber bullets, 1,000 rounds of normal deer hunting bullets, 1,000 rounds of twelve-gauge eggshells, and 2,000 rounds of pistol bullets. Ten five-shotguns with five rounds of ammunition and twenty pistols, but they were less powerful and belonged to the civilian version of the reduced power, and the most unexpected was that three crossbows were given and there were 1,200 arrows.
None of Atlantis' gun shops can be opened too big, and the types are strictly controlled, so it is a surprise that there are so many supplies.
Hood handed over the keys to Hood's manor as agreed, and Martin didn't bother and let them drive away.
"Did you really just let them go?" After they were gone, one of Martin's younger brothers asked.
"Or else? Look there. Martin lifted his chin and gestured to where Mo Xuan was hiding. Mo Xuan got up and showed his figure after they got into the car, but the "Call of God" in his hand was still facing this side.
"That's? Sniper! The little brother broke out in a cold sweat.
"Not only that, the gun in his hand is only used by special forces, the 'Jesus-class' sniper rifle, nicknamed 'God's Call', can be used as an anti-materiel weapon, let this thing come to a shot, not to mention the Tianling Gai, this head may not be able to be saved. Besides, I am an old friend of Nahude, his father is kind to me, and now that his whole family is dead, I will also exchange his personal favor. β
"And you yesterday?"
"It's really just to scare them, the world is hard, people's hearts are sinister, and some precautions are a good thing." With that, he raised his hand and waved at Mo Xuan.
Mo Xuan put away his gun, gave him a military salute, and turned away.
