Chapter XXVIII
"Miyamoto, this bottle of mineral water was imported from the Celestial Empire?" Jing Haoyong held a bottle of Nongfu Spring and asked Xue Qiong, who was sitting opposite, "What are the Chinese characters written on it?" β
Xue Qiong and the six protagonists are now sitting around the ground eating and drinking, the time is a little more than ten o'clock in the morning, and the place is the hall of the shrine. Although it was a little late, they were indeed eating breakfast now, and they were refueling for the next action.
Xue Qiong glanced at the bottle of mineral water that had been taken away from the convenience store and said:
"Why is it necessary to export such things to foreign countries as well... It reads 'We don't produce water, we're nature's porters.' ββ
Saying that, Xue Qiong stuffed a piece of plastic-wrapped hot dog bread with a large amount of preservatives so long that the shelf life reached two months into his mouth, and the bakery sold out that day, and it was estimated that it would be spoiled in two days.
"Preservatives are really a gift from God to mankind..."Xue Qiong chewed and ate the bread slowly, "Although the shelf life of these sealed things is only one or two years at most, I estimate that even after decades, the surviving humans can still find food to eat in the ruins..."
ββ¦ Didn't you think that this would make other people lose their appetite? Komuro's throat twitched.
"Don't care about those details..."Xue Qiong said with a smile, the food in his mouth didn't slow him down, "Don't you see that I'm eating quite fragrant now?" If you need some comfort... The harm of preservatives to human beings is basically to increase the carcinogenic rate a little, but in the current situation, cancer that will quietly take people's lives is obviously not as dangerous as cold, fever, and diarrhea that will lead to the loss of combat effectiveness..."
"You have a point, but I've really lost most of my appetite right now..."
"For the sake of our next actions, I still recommend that everyone eat as much as possible, hunger is one of the most terrible killers..."Xue Qiong had already finished eating what he had in hand at this time, and picked up the pure water beside him and poured half a bottle for himself.
Half an hour later, the seven of them packed up their bags and walked down the stone steps at the entrance of the shrine to the Humvee that had stopped the night before at the bottom of the mountain.
The stone steps allow two people to walk side by side, Xue Qiong walked in the front, Tsukako Poison Island was next to him, Komuro Takashi was behind, Kota Hirano and Saya Takashiro were behind, and Hiroshi Ihiro and Doctor Jukawa walked last.
"This weather, it's really getting fast..."Xue Qiong glanced at the sky. The night before it was cloudy, and by the morning it was cloudless, but now the sky was beginning to be cloudy again, trying to block out the sun's rays.
"Let's go as fast as possible, I can't rule out the possibility of rain." Xue Qiong was about to speed up the pace, but at this moment...
[The protagonist of this world, "Jing Haoyong", has died, and 1000 points will be deducted. γ
"Enemy Attack !!!!!"
Hearing the prompt sound of the beacon, Xue Qiong didn't react at first, but after a second, he turned around abruptly, pulled out a black dagger and blocked it in front of him, and at the same time yelled to warn the others.
"Huh?!" But after Xue Qiong turned around, he saw Jing Haoyong standing in place, while the other protagonists were looking at him with an inexplicable look.
(Beacon, what's going on...) οΌ
Xue Qiong just wanted to question the beacon, but saw Jing Haoyong suddenly wave his right arm straight, and the long sleeves of the school uniform were instantly shattered, revealing ... It's not an arm anymore.
Jing Haoyong's right arm has completely turned into a strange flat structure made of bone and flesh, especially the edge of one side is completely exposed to the air of the white bone, and the edge of this part of the bone is as thin as paper, it looks like... A machete!!
Before everyone could react, "Hiroshi I" waved his right arm, which had become a murder weapon, and slashed at Shizuka Jukawa, who was walking next to it.
In just a split second, no one could stop it.
Jukawa Shizuka's head flew into the air, and the body that had lost its strength rolled down the stone steps, and the blood that spurted out when the major artery was cut off splashed Xue Qiong's body, and at this time, Xue Qiong could only watch the headless corpse roll down the mountain from his feet, but he couldn't stop these things from happening.
[The protagonist of this world, "Shizuka Jukawa", has died, and 1000 points will be deducted. γ
"..."Xue Qiong looked at it in a daze, and burst into a foul mouth.
Poison Island Tsuiko, who was walking beside Xue Qiong, had already pulled out the knife at this time, and this knife had been replaced with the scabbard of the knife in the shrine hall before, and the demonic purple light flashing on the knife illuminated Xue Qiong's face uncertainly.
"Hide behind the two of us!!" Xue Qiong finally calmed down, and rushed up with Poison Island Yanzi, protecting the three people who had no melee combat effectiveness behind, "Take out those who have guns, just in case, protect those who don't have weapons!" , there's a semi-automatic rifle behind that guy..."
The mutated Jing Hao looked condescendingly at the two who rushed up, and did not make any moves.
"Be careful, it still has sight!" Spotting Jing Haoyong's eyes, Xue Qiong reminded the poison island beside him.
"I see it!!" Poison Island Tsuneko was faster than Xue Qiong, and gradually rushed in front of him, and in the run, he put on a posture called by China to split Huashan and Japan called Da Shangdan, vowing to split the enemy in half from the middle.
"Ran away..."Xue Qiong said as she squatted on the stone steps and looked at the steep slope on the side of the road.
At the moment when Poison Island Tsuneko took out the knife, the mutated Jing Haoyong blocked it with his right arm that turned into a big knife, and the hardness of the bones actually resisted the +12 rusty katana that had been strengthened again, although it was still cut out of a huge gap, but it seized the opportunity of Poison Island Tsunako's offensive to stagnate, and jumped directly to the hillside on the side of the road, and disappeared in a few vertical jumps in the mountain forest.
"You can actually run..."Xue Qiong kept pounding the ground with his right hand holding the black dagger, and his left hand was grabbing his hair vigorously, and the sharp blade cut the stone steps into pieces.
"You can run... Actually can run... I'll go to your Malegobi, and I'll run! Xue Qiong's behavior is not known because he was angry because his companion was killed, or because he was angry because he was deducted 2,000 points of hard-earned money.
"That's enough." Poison Island squatted down behind Xue Qiong's back and grabbed his arm.
"How the hell did he mutate..."Xue Qiong sighed and sat on the stone steps and muttered to himself.
"No zombies found, no zombie mutants found, no attacks by any infected people..."
"And I was directly infected with this advanced mutant, with intelligence, vision, and even when he was about to attack Shizuka-sensei, I didn't feel the danger... The most incomprehensible thing is that zombies, which have been active for the purpose of eating humans, can run... Even the teacher was killed directly and then left alone..."Xue Qiongshun made an excuse for discovering the real reason for the situation for the first time.
"No..."Xue Qiong had a flash of inspiration.
"Didn't it run away!! It couldn't stand the temptation of food, and went directly to chase the corpse to eat it!! Thinking of this, Xue Qiong quickly stood up.
"Go down as fast as you can!! Following Mr. Jukawa's... Bloodstains, you'll be able to find that bastard! β
"Found you..."On a platform with a bend in stone steps, Xue Qiong was holding a dagger upside down, his face was particularly hideous because of the blood stained with Shizuka Jukawa, and the other protagonists were also standing beside him.
The monster in front of him couldn't tell that it was once Jing Haoyong, its two arms had turned into machete-like things, and even became longer, the gap that had been cut by Poison Island Tsuneko before had healed, and the facial features on its face had been distorted into something that did not look like a human.
At this time, it was supporting its upper body with two knife arms, frantically eating the corpse of Shizuka Jukawa, already... I'm almost halfway there.
Xue Qiong heard the sound of Saya Takajo vomiting behind him.
Sensing the arrival of the living, it stopped ravaging the corpses, stood up and let out a very unpleasant roar at them.
"Liberate," Tsukashiko put her right hand on the hilt.
Xue Qiong saw a purple light curtain flash in front of Poison Island Tsunza's body, and the monster that Jing Haoyong had mutated into stopped moving, and after a few seconds, its head slipped from a smooth incision, and its mutated body also fell heavily to the ground.
"This force is getting stronger and stronger... If it had been yesterday, I wouldn't have been able to do such a thing..."Poison Island Tsuneko muttered to herself as she looked at the brown patch on her right wrist after she put away the knife.
Xue Qiong couldn't say anything, patted Poison Island Tsuneko on the shoulder, and then walked straight forward, opened the medicine box hanging on the corpse of Shizuka Jukawa, and took out a needle to collect some blood samples.
"Joan, back!!" Xue Qiong suddenly stopped at the warning sound of the poison island man.
"Not dead?!" Xue Qiong quickly turned around when she heard this, only to see that the monster that had been decapitated now got up again, and two new eyes grew on her chest...
"Hey, are you Xingtian..."Xue Qiong said the words of complaining, but the movements of his hands did not lag in the slightest. Before it could fully rise to its feet, one of its arms was severed with a dagger, causing its body to fall to the ground again without support.
"What's going on..."Xue Qiong squatted in front of the monster and poked lightly with a black dagger.
I saw that the blood holes on the monster's body that had been poked out by Xue Qiong were rapidly healing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and after growing new skin, Xue Qiong could clearly feel that it had become stronger and tougher.
οΌβ¦ Hurry up, and it will be troublesome if the stainless steel needle can't be pierced later. Thinking of this, Xue Qiong hurriedly picked up the syringe that had been thrown on the ground before, pumped a full tube on the monster, and threw it into the storage space in a direction that no one else could see.
"Goo.. Coo-cooβ" came a strange sound from the monster's chest.
ββ¦ ε΄ε. Xue Qiong stood up and took two steps back.
"I see." Poison Island stepped forward knowingly, and chopped the monster that was originally Jing Haoyong into meat sauce with dozens of slashes that could not be caught by the naked eye, but those broken pieces of meat continued to wriggle, as if they were still trying to put them together again.
"Gross... Vomit! Saya Takashiro vomited again, mixing the vomit with the minced meat on the ground into a puddle of indescribable things.
"I said I would help Miyamoto Li avenge it..."Xue Qiong looked at the puddle of things on the ground and smiled mockingly.
Then Xue Qiong opened the medicine box left by Shizuka Juchuan again, took out a large bottle of medical alcohol and poured it on it, squatted down and lit it with a lighter, and lit a cigarette for herself by the way.
In the flames, the pieces of flesh on the ground wriggled violently, and some even grew carapace-like things, but eventually ceased to move.
[Kill Jing Hao's Eternal Corpse Brother Mutant, reward 3,000 points, and one life crystal.] γ
(Even though you're dead, the kill reward still stays the same?) But it's finally back to basics... I see, I said that if I cut off my head, I won't die... The corpse brother virus can only be transmitted from water sources, and it's still a domestic comic... Is that bottle of Nongfu Spring? Should I say that I am truly a porter of nature... οΌ
Xue Qiong took a hard puff of his cigarette and laughed self-deprecatingly, but his mood was immediately ruined by the continuous prompting sound of the beacon, and at the same time, he felt the sense of detachment when he had just entered this world, the feeling that made him realize that he was not being noticed by anyone now, and made him clearly feel that he did not belong to this world...
[It has been detected that the world of this plot has been eroded by five other plot worlds, and the world view has begun to collapse.] γ
(The worldview has long been broken, okay, all I can recognize are Resident Evil, Corpse Brother, Torture Archetype and Arad World, etc., what else is there?) οΌ
At this time, Xue Qiong didn't realize the seriousness of the problem, and he still had the heart to complain, and the next hint really ruined his mood.
[Dimensional barrier stability begins to decrease.] In addition, 4F637N75 does not have query permissions. γ
[The story change reward in this story world has been canceled, and the protagonist kill reward has been canceled.] γ
[The plot inertia of this plot world has been canceled.] γ
[Warning, all original plots are subject to change, and the outcome is unpredictable.] γ
[Detected that 4F637N75 is the first leader in this change, and receives a reward of 1500 points.] γ
[The exit point of this story world has been doubled and changed to 10,000 points.] γ
γWarning! The difficulty of this world will change unpredictably! γ
[It is recommended that 4F637N75 get out immediately after completing the mandatory main quest "Fight Side by Side", otherwise there will be unpredictable consequences.] γ
(Unpredictable, unpredictable, unpredictable...) What the hell do you eat... οΌ
After the beacon's prompt disappeared from his head, Xue Qiong felt that the sense of detachment disappeared, but it still made his mood much worse.
Xue Qiong sighed deeply and took a deep breath of nicotine and tar, and threw the cigarette butt to the ground and stepped on it.
"I suspect that Yong is infected by a virus in food or water. In the future, the water we drink must be boiled for 30 minutes, and the food will be thoroughly mashed into a paste and thrown into the pot to cook for a while... It's a hassle though. β
At the same time.
"Dragon Wolf Boss, what happened just now?"
In an apartment building with no living people, the door is closed. A woman lying under the dragon wolf with her body on her body, one of the seven newcomers in this world, including Xue Qiong, asked in shock.
"Ask the beacon." The dragon wolf didn't look too anxious, and only after he finished his work did he raise his wrist and call up the holographic projection screen on the watch-type beacon.
"Oh no, Dragon Wolf Boss!!" A hurried voice suddenly came from the door, "There's a three-eyed guy downstairs, and a guy with white skin and a face painted like a singing play, he, he, he, they..."
