Chapter 62: Departure
On the morning of the next day, Yan Zhengfeng left the house with Zhao Yi, Lu Ming seemed to be in a good mood, and followed the two of them gracefully.
The demon seed found in the village had been completely absorbed, and it had become a part of his power.
There weren't too many zombies on the streets, and the whole city was empty, which confirmed Yan Zhengfeng's conjecture even more, otherwise, even the suburbs shouldn't be so deserted.
The scattered zombies did not slow down the speed of the two, and taking advantage of the time to hurry, Yan Zhengfeng collected some food and fresh water in the houses on the side of the road for use in the next journey.
Although the location of the institute is in the city, with the current road conditions, it will take at least a day to get there.
After walking for more than ten minutes, the two of them came to the place where they had fought before, and the reason why they didn't avoid this place was that Yan Zhengfeng wanted to see what the final result of yesterday's battle was.
Despot...... Mutant cockroach swarm, this is just entering the city, and no one knows if there will be something more terrifying.
On the cracked asphalt road, the ground was turned over as if it had been ploughed, and a hideous skeleton was inserted in the dirt pit on the ground, with only the upper body of the skeleton and a dense body of insects around it, but the insects were all dead when you looked closely.
Seeing this picture, Yan Zhengfeng could already imagine the fierce battle yesterday, and it was estimated that no matter which side it was, it didn't take advantage, but in the end, the mutant cockroach swarm won.
This is not unexpected, there are too many ants, and elephants will also be bitten to death, thinking of the eggs he saw in the sewer yesterday, Yan Zhengfeng is a little afraid until now.
It is really difficult to build a base in the city, and there are too many safety risks, and even if you reluctantly build it, you will face all kinds of problems.
"I'd suggest you go over and check it out, and if you're lucky, you might even find some crystal nuclei." Lu Ming stood beside Yan Zhengfeng, looking at the tragic battlefield in front of him, his eyes did not fluctuate at all, as if he had long been accustomed to such things happening: "But it's a pity that the crystal nucleus in this tyrant's head is estimated to have been devoured by those mutant cockroaches that survived." ”
Yan Zhengfeng turned around, looking at Lu Ming beside him without speaking, what he wanted to ask was, since the crystal nucleus in the tyrant's head had been devoured, what useful things could he find in the past now?
"All mutated animals will not attack their own kind, nor will they harm the bodies of their own kind to devour the crystal nucleus inside, except for humans, of course." seemed to know what Yan Zhengfeng was thinking, Lu Ming's tone was flat, but in Yan Zhengfeng's ears, it was a little sarcastic.
Inadvertently, Lu Ming divided the human race into the camp of mutant animals, which made Yan Zhengfeng mumble a little in his heart.
Compared to mutated animals, humans are not so bloodthirsty and ferocious.
"Squeak ......"
There were too many insect corpses on the ground, and the sound of stepping on it was a little crisp, Yan Zhengfeng endured the resistance in his heart, rummaged through the insect corpses, and soon filled a small bag of crystal nuclei, the shape of these crystal nuclei is different from that of zombies, diamond-shaped, and small in size, but the energy inside is very pure.
In fact, Yan Zhengfeng didn't know the specific role of the crystal nucleus, but he had heard others talk about it when he was at the base before, and it seemed to be very important for the supernatural.
Unfortunately, he doesn't have Awaken yet, so he has to save it for later.
……
……
After collecting the crystal nucleus, Yan Zhengfeng continued to march in the direction of the research institute, Lu Ming followed behind, and Zhao Yi still held Yan Zhengfeng's shirt and did not speak, like a pendant.
Lu Ming didn't remind Yan Zhengfeng that after he helped Yan Zhengfeng clean up the zombie virus in his body yesterday, this guy awakened the ability, or he didn't take this ability seriously, for Lu Ming, there is no difference between low-level abilities and ordinary people.
Around the end of the night, the group came to the vicinity marked on the map, but Yan Zhengfeng walked around and didn't find the entrance to the research institute.
Thinking of the information revealed in the note, with the particularity of this special biochemical research institute, it should be built underground, or other very secret locations, but now that it is so late, it is imperative to find a place to settle down and rest.
When the sun sets, there are generally no survivors who choose to move outside, because the end times in the dark are more dangerous.
Taking advantage of the last bit of afterglow before the evening came, Yan Zhengfeng found a hotel, although it was only for a temporary night, but he still checked inside and out, but surprisingly, there were no zombies in the hotel.
In fact, since entering this area, they have rarely encountered zombies, even insects and animals, which is very abnormal.
Although it is a suburb, it is not remote, and there were many people before the outbreak of the end times, but these people seem to have evaporated from the world and disappeared.
He didn't believe that it was the corpse tide that took all the zombies away when they attacked the base before, and before entering this area, he could at least encounter some scattered zombies and mutant animals.
"Let's not disperse, let's just stay in one room, this place is not normal."
found a room on the second floor at random, Yan Zhengfeng closed all the doors and windows, and grabbed Zhao Yi.
Although there are many rooms in the hotel, it is too dangerous to live separately, and at least you can take care of each other when you live together.
Zhao Yi nodded, did not speak, after entering the room, he loosened Yan Zhengfeng's clothes, and lay on the table not knowing what he was tinkering with.
Yan Zhengfeng took a closer look, his eyes were slightly puzzled, this child, I don't know when he took a handful of mutant cockroaches and put them in his pocket, and was dissecting them with a piece of ice at this time.
In this environment, it is somewhat strange to do such a thing, Yan Zhengfeng was afraid that there was some virus on the insect corpse, and wanted to clean up the insect corpse, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, Zhao Yi slapped it open.
"Don't move."
Zhao Yi was reluctant to speak, his little face was full of seriousness, and he was engrossed in looking at the dismembered insect corpse in front of him, as if he was observing a beautiful work of art.
complained in his heart, Yan Zhengfeng was still afraid of any accidents, so he didn't dare to leave, so he sat aside and watched quietly.
It seemed that he felt a little awkward, Zhao Yi moved his body uncomfortably, raised and put down his hand holding the ice edge, repeated it several times, but there was no substantive movement.
"Don't look."
With a little aggrieved in his eyes, Zhao Yi put the ice ridge in his hand on the table and glared at Yan Zhengfeng angrily.
