Chapter 62: The Cult Organization
Could it be Liu Yingying? Zero thought to himself. If it is her, there are so many places at the beginning, she does not go but runs to herself alone, and she has to follow herself, it seems to make sense.
I've been through so much together, I can only hope not! Zero sighed.
~
Long!
Zero slowly opened his eyes and looked into a corner of the room. It was already dark outside, and there wasn't a glimmer of light, but Zero just stared straight there.
"You've followed me all the way, I've been so relaxed before, still don't you do it?" Zero suddenly muttered to himself.
There was a dead silence in the air, and after a few seconds, "pop" "pop" "pop" "pop" γγγγγγ
After a round of applause, the air twisted slightly, and a figure shrouded in black robes suddenly emerged from where Zero was looking.
Or the same man who assassinated him.
However, this time the black-robed man seemed to have not only killed him, but also stood there, and a processed voice came from under the robe: "How did you find out?" β
Zero didn't answer directly, but asked rhetorically, "Didn't you do it this time?" β
As if he knew that Zero had night vision, the black-robed man stretched out his hands from his sleeves and opened them to Zero, signaling that he was not armed. He also wore a pair of black gloves on his hands in the darkness of the night.
Zero nodded, seemingly satisfied with his attitude, and asked again: "I don't have the impression of an enemy, why do you have to kill me." β
The black-robed man was not afraid to make a move, so he sat down on the spot and continued to say in a fake voice: "It's nothing, you're in our way!" So to get rid of you, there really is no enmity between us. β
Zero was keenly aware that he was talking about "we", not "me", and was it really organized.
"Then let's do it, what are you hesitating about, isn't it a good opportunity now." Zero said.
The black-robed man shook his head: "No need, the time has passed, a new era has arrived, no one can stop the wheel of the era, there is no need to kill you now, tomorrow will be a new beginning!" β
"A new beginning?" Zero chewed on those four words.
But the black-robed man didn't seem to have the heart to answer for him, just raised his head and looked in the direction of Zero.
Although the face hidden under the black robe seemed to be facing him, Zero felt that he was actually looking out the window.
What's outside the window? Zero also glanced sideways, and there was nothing but heavy dark clouds and inky night.
There weren't even any voices, no dog barking, only the faint roar of zombies.
"What is your ultimate goal?"
Hearing Zero's question, the black-robed man suddenly stretched out his hands above his head to make a gesture of embracing the sun, and his modified voice carried supreme fanaticism: "For the great future of all mankind, for the supreme glory of the Lord!" β
A brainwashed fanatic! Zero has already made a judgment in his heart, and this kind of thing is only said by those middle two characters who have been absorbed into the fringes of the cult.
Knowing that he couldn't say anything, Zero didn't plan to hide it anymore.
"You should have just left!" Zero said lightly.
"Huh?" The black-robed man didn't understand what Zero meant, he had seen that there was no ambush in the house before he came in before, and the kid in front of him should not have much strength.
What's missing?
The black-robed man seemed to see through the darkness as well, and began to turn his neck around the room.
And Zero didn't mean to stop him, he just let him look for it, and when he didn't find it, he slowly took out his right hand from behind him.
Right hand!
The black-robed man's face twitched under his hat, and he had thought that he was just holding his hands behind him against the wall to prevent the wound from bursting, but now it seems that this is not the case.
A sneer tugged at the corner of Zero's mouth and hooked his fingers.
I don't know that there was a ray of light from there, and it actually shone a bright light on Zero's finger, which was an almost transparent silk thread hidden in the darkness.
Not good! The black-robed man hurriedly turned around and rushed towards the door.
"Boom" "Boom" "Boom"γγγγγγ
The sound of a series of threads breaking resounded in the small room.
Cold sweat had already flowed down the side of the black-robed man's face, and although his hand had touched the door frame, the black-robed man did not feel a little saved in his heart.
A very thin thread on the door had stopped at his waist and began to pull him towards the middle of the house, and the extremely tough texture made him try to break the thread several times without success.
Forget about the other lines, when will this one be on the doorγγγγγγ
"Whoosh" "Whoosh" "Whoosh" γγγγγγ
The rapidly harvested silk thread cut through the air, and a cloud of blood mist suddenly burst in the center of the silk thread.
Zero's eyes were a little solemn, although there was a lot of blood in the center of the floor, it was not a lethal amount of bleeding, and he saw the figure of the black-robed man floating like smoke at the last moment.
Is that really the case? Zero secretly thought that after being attacked twice in a row before, Zero had already begun to analyze this person, or this sage.
Before the first encounter in the sewers, this guy showed great patience, and in the process of luring himself to that sacrificial place, he has been wandering around him, looking for opportunities, if it weren't for the five senses of zero, which are far beyond ordinary people, this kind of thing can't be done by ordinary people, only the saints can't do it.
But if it's just the first time, it doesn't matter, Zero has been on guard since then, but he was assassinated for the second time in full view of everyone, but even if he was careful enough, he was not a monster with amazing eyes, it was impossible to remember the position and appearance of everyone in the hall at that time, he still appeared so suddenly, and almost succeeded in killing himself.
On the way to be a bait, although Zero kept luring zombies, he didn't have the mind to use himself as bait to lure him again. Zero knew that although he had returned a knife with a wound similar to his own, it was not fatal for the Sage.
Judging from these two times, the other party is about to kill himself.
On the way here, he has been paying attention to his surroundings, probably because the black-robed man is also seriously injured, this time he is not hiding very well, several times in the dark corner caused a trace of spatial fluctuations, and it happened to be seen by Zero.
But Zero ignored him and just continued to sit and do his job. The attack of the big zombie was indeed unexpected, and when he fell into the store, he felt some strange movement in the air around him, and he didn't know why he didn't make a move.
So after escaping upstairs, Zero quickly used the hidden transparent special silk thread to lay a lot of traps in the room.
Since both sides were seriously injured, Zero felt that since he couldn't hide anymore, he couldn't kill himself at once, and in line with the principle of probing the tone, he chatted with him for a long time before revealing the murderous intention.
Maybe the black-robed man was telling the truth, he didn't mean to do anything with zero, and he stood there honestly after coming in, but unfortunately, at the last moment, he still escaped, otherwise what he was on the ground now would be a pair of pieces of minced meat, not just a pool of blood.
However, Zero really didn't have much hope that he could kill him directly, so he could only say that the result was acceptable.
Retract the threads, slowly close your eyes, and fall into a light sleep.
Zero believes that what the guy said is true, and he should be safe for a short time.
~
On the roof of a building dozens of meters away, a figure suddenly appeared there, and the black robes on his body were as if they had been cut by a sharp weapon, tattered.
"Poof!" The black-robed man's throat was sweet, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood uncontrollably.
There were a few wandering zombies downstairs, as if they had smelled the faint smell of blood in the air, snorted, and walked around a little manic.
"Hehe, it's really decisive, if you use it, you will kill it." The black-robed man smiled mockingly at his contemptuous enemy, but he had no killing intent towards Zero in his heart.
"But it's just an ant under the wheel, you too, so am I, we are all here, who can jump for too long!" The figure of the black-robed man slowly dissipated again, and the retouched words also drifted into the air.
Only the zombies below were pacing in confusion.
~
When the first bleak rays of daylight pierced through the clouds, Zero opened his eyes: it was dawn.
Holding the wall in his hand, he slowly stood up, after a night's rest, although his mind was much clearer, but the wound behind him was more painful, and Zero knew that he needed to reduce inflammation as soon as possible, otherwise the wound would fester, although he had a good physique, he couldn't do anything about this injury.
Carefully finding a way, Zero trotted all the way back to the shelter. I don't know if San'er and Si'er's pair of naΓ―ve brothers have returned.
On the way, I also met a white cat chased by zombies, which was the first living animal that Zero saw after the end of the world and did not become food.
But this was just a quick little episode, and Zero didn't pay much attention to it.
Back at the shelter, Zero didn't go in directly, but first cautiously checked around the shelter, and after solving a few wandering zombies, he made sure that there was no problem, and he turned in from the previous gap in the low wall, which was discovered by zombies before, and many zombies got in from here, and now they have been covered again.
When he drilled through the gap, Zero remembered that the last time he came was the road led by Wang Yu, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Standing at the back door, Zero was about to knock on the door when he heard a rush of footsteps inside the door.
With a few "squeaks" and "squeaks" of joints, the heavy back door slowly opened.
Niu Ben ran out with a surprised face, picked up Zero from the ground, pressed it hard in his arms, and choked again.
"Shhh was pressed to the wound by the excited Niu Ben, and Zero couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. Although he was also very happy, he couldn't accept Niu Ben's enthusiasm, and he was always crying because of the strong man who was more than two meters tallγγγγγγ
"Brother Niu, let me down, I'm going to die!" Zero said through gritted teeth. Niu Ben exclaimed, and then put Zero down.
Xu Bin in the back also stepped forward and hugged Zero, although he didn't speak, his eyes were full of excitement.
Zhao Qinchuan didn't hug Zero because he wasn't so familiar with the relationship, but he also shook hands with Zero vigorously.
"We are also comrades-in-arms!" Zero smiled.
"yes!" Zhao Qinchuan also smiled and nodded, and then suddenly said, "By the way, the girl you brought suddenly fainted yesterday after you left." β
