In the dark night sky, a figure walks on the road on the outskirts of the city.

To be exact, Laurent walks on her waist in the center of the road.

Of course, he had to choose that way.

The originally well-manicured green belts on both sides of the road have grown like trees, and the lush branches have even completely obscured the road sky.

These were secondary, and Laurent chose to walk in the center of the road because he wanted to say that it was possible to avoid the bugs.

This bug is not a "Zerg" bug, they are just the most ordinary insects on this planet.

Of course, after that incident, these insects were no longer the same people.

Everything is different when a bee bug, which used to only suck nectar, suddenly likes to suck the blood of animals and even humans after its body has grown at least three times in size.

Laurent had seen with her own eyes a few days ago that a survivor was accidentally surrounded by a swarm of giant ants while collecting fruit in the jungle, and before he could get far, his feet were corroded by formic acid and he fell to the ground, and was soon gnawed into a skeleton of bones.

Laurent is not afraid of death, as a warrior, whether it is fighting the bugs of the "Zerg" and dying, or hunting and killing these mutant creatures, Laurent does not care.

But Laurent couldn't die now, because he knew very well that if he died now, if his wife and two children in the base couldn't wait for those compressed energy bars in their backpacks, then they would die.

The primitive mechanical exoskeleton armor supported the heavy body, and Laurent's right mechanical arm gripped a giant blade that he had sharpened with his own hands, and he walked unhurriedly without letting down his guard for a moment.

This primitive mechanical exoskeleton armor, including the blades clenched by the robotic arm, is already the most powerful weapon Laurent can find right now.

The sudden electromagnetic storm destroyed almost everything, except for the bases buried deep underground, all the electronic equipment on the surface was destroyed by the terrifying electromagnetic storm.

Whether it's a smart watch that everyone can't live without, or a Thor mecha, all of them have lost their usefulness.

Including some advanced weapons, which can no longer be used at all.

If this electromagnetic storm knocked the "Morning Star Federation" from an advanced scientific and technological civilization to a primitive civilization in an instant, then the inexplicable virus attack that followed completely brought this civilization into a dark and bloody apocalypse.

This set of primitive mechanical exoskeleton armor was snatched by Laurent.

When the end came, he was on vacation and reacted to what was going on more than ordinary people, and Laurent did not hesitate to rush into the neighbor's house and grab it.

Including the vehicle that delivered her family safely to the "Carlo base", at that time, Laurent suddenly realized how lucky she was to have a neighbor who liked old-fashioned machinery and had super hands-on skills.

“……”

Suddenly, a strange voice rang out.

Years of fighting have given Laurent a keen sense of danger.

When a half-human-tall black shadow burst out of the jungle-like green belt on the side of the road, Laurent, who had already sensed the danger, waved his right arm.

The mechanical arm, which was composed of complex mechanical components, picked up a sharp giant blade, and slashed through the night sky with a cold light, slashing the black shadow fiercely.

The sound of flesh and blood shattering sounded clearly, and the black shadow was directly split in half.

Turning around, Laurent glanced behind her.

With the help of the night vision goggles on his helmet, Laurent's pupils suddenly contracted when he saw what was behind him.

Vaguely, as if Laurent could see that it was a human being.

At least it was a human being, to be exact.

The limbs of the human being were clearly visible, except that the back of its body was deformedly arched high.

And on its back, under the cracked muscles, several hard brown bone spurs were exposed.

The human facial features can still be faintly seen on the head, but its mouth is pulled all the way to the ear.

And in its mouth, several fangs poked out obliquely from its lips, looking hideous and ugly.

"Allogeneic ......"

Muttering to herself, Laurent did not dare to linger any longer and turned around and began to trot when she saw some beetles crawling out of the ground and crawling towards the corpse.

The journey was thrilling, and Laurent was soon back at base.

When the ancient gun machine sounded, Laurent immediately raised his hands and whispered, "It's me, Laurent Thirteen in Area E." ”

"Stand there and don't move."

The same muffled voice sounded, and after about a dozen seconds, the closed iron door in front of Laurent slowly slid open.

"Why did you come back so late?"

Several soldiers on duty surrounded him, and a big man led by him stared at Laurent and asked.

"I encountered some trouble on the way, and I delayed the time, otherwise I would have come back early."

Tucking her backpack, Laurent responded.

Seeing the soldiers staring at her with eyes shining, Laurent hesitated for a moment, but still opened her backpack.

He took out two bottles of wine, which were absolutely considered luxuries at the base, and handed them over, and Laurent took another pack of high-calorie snacks and handed them them.

The big man at the head took it as a matter of course, then nodded with satisfaction, signaling that Laurent could go in.

"Wait."

Laurent had only taken a few steps when the voice of the big man came from behind her.

With a tense heart, Laurent stopped.

Although the supply of food has long been restricted at the base, it can be said that most civilians are hungry every day, but this is only for civilians, at least these soldiers are not short of food.

In fact, they still have a surplus of food, after all, it is estimated that there is still a lot of high-energy compressed food stored in the base, and the people in power have also limited the food supply for long-term considerations.

Laurent didn't know how many times he had seen that these soldiers could do whatever they wanted in the base with very little food, and it was not too common for a small packet of compressed energy bars to be exchanged for a woman.

This is also the reason why Laurent did not give them food just now, but chose "luxury".

"Anything else? Brothers. ”

Laurent turned around and asked deliberately in a tone and title commonly used in the military.

"Where did you get this mechanical exoskeleton armor? That's what works now. ”

The big man asked, staring at Laurent's seemingly shabby mechanical exoskeleton armor.

"Huh? My father used to make it and kept it in the air as an antique, but I didn't expect it to come in handy now. ”

"Brother, if it weren't for the fact that I often have to pick up some tasks from the base during this time and need to go out often, otherwise it would be fine to lend you clothes for a few days."

Laurent said with a smile.

"Oh, Special Operations Squad brothers."

"No wonder you live in Zone E, it's okay, you can go."

When Dahan heard him say this, he waved his hand stupidly.

With a sigh of relief, Laurent smiled and nodded to the big man, then turned around and walked to the elevator not far away.
