Chapter Seventy-Six: The Central Floor
Maybe it's because all the food prepared in the movie theater was eaten by Tu Tianworm alone, and Tu Tianworm walks at the forefront by crawling on all fours, speeding up the digestion of the food in the body.
Each of the others held a flashlight with unlimited power in their hands and walked forward at a normal walking speed through the dark passage.
"The more you think about it, the more interesting it becomes, is there a human being in it who can control germs on their own?" Tu Tianworm kept twisting his head.
"That's still a matter of the inner area, so let's focus on the Central Floor, and the [Premium Movie Coupon] in my hand is going to be used in the movie theater on the Central Floor."
"According to Yujing's character, don't you stay at the end?" Ning Yanzhi asked.
"We get a "premium movie roll" when we complete the main story at a faster pace, and from another point of view, it is possible that we have shown a strong strength that exceeds the threshold set by the movie theater, and thus deliberately rewards us with a "premium movie roll" that is used to increase the difficulty. If we can easily complete the main plot in the movie on the Central floor, we should still be able to get such a "high-level movie volume...... If we don't have the ability to complete the main story super quickly, it means that we only have so much strength. ”
"Yujing-san is really becoming more and more conservative." Ning Yanzhi said with a smile.
"Be a little conservative, I have a bad feeling in the movie theater this time......" Yu Jing couldn't help but reach out and scratch the right shoulder of the crescent moon mark.
In just a short time, I walked around the corner of the passage and through a descending staircase to the abandoned subway platform.
Judging by the broken advertising signs on the platform and the subway signs that fell to the ground, this should be the subway station of the former 21st District, which was abandoned due to an outbreak of infection.
With the integration of cinemas, the subway station is back in operation.
A train covered in black mycelium drove over, and the carriage door opened, signaling Yu Jing and the others to get on the train.
"Next stop, the Central Cinema."
After traveling a certain distance on a dark underground track, the train connects to the empty rail outside. After Yu Jing and the others returned to the cinema after completing "Blackwood Town", the time had come to seven o'clock in the evening, and a ray of sunset was reflected in the train.
The 21st Special Administrative District of Huaxia State is located in a basin area with declining topography.
The difference in sea level between the inner, middle and outer areas is 1,300 meters, and the altitude of the inner core is even minus 200 meters.
The train on which everyone was riding was running on empty tracks at an altitude of nearly 1,000 meters, overlooking the current situation of the Central Level.
The surface of each building here is covered in black mycelium, and the roofs of each building are covered with dense corpses, which are made into human jerky by the sun and served to the infected.
Of course, there are also people who don't like to eat this kind of 'jerky cooked food', and on the street directly below the air rail train, three severely infected humans are quickly gnawing on the body of a mildly infected girl to avoid being snatched by others.
As the height of the train slowly decreased, Yu Jing saw that something quite different was happening in the room where the windows were not closed.
A woman with a distended abdomen supports the ground on all fours, and her lower body splits open, giving birth to clumps of eggs the size of a human head from within. In the egg body entwined with mycelium, a certain humanoid infant life form is clearly visible.
Yu Jing frowned, "Has the infection of germs caused humans to change from mammals to oviparous?" This is already a modification of the inner layer of genes, and it should be the effect of some kind of prion. ”
Not only that, but occasionally some special infected people will be found in the streets, which brings a great threat to Yujing.
One of them, a man in a white cloak, stood in the middle of the street and stared at the train in the sky, and as the man waved his arm, a large number of stones crashed into the empty tracks. However, the empty rail that Yu Jing rode on belonged to the assets of Xenocinema, and the barrier set up outside annihilated all the flying stones.
Ning Yanzhi sat aside and explained the phenomenon of the Central Layer:
"The current situation of the Central Layer is similar to that of the end of the world, the plague has completely infected the area, and the former inhabitants are at least moderately infected. This phenomenon of cannibalism will make the infection of germs more and more serious. Roasting human meat into jerky by sunlight minimizes the amount of germs contained in the meat.
In addition, there is no management mechanism similar to the [Original Sin Building] in the inner area of the Central Level, and the city is completely chaotic enough to be described as a 'purgatory on earth'. ”
"In such a chaotic city, I don't know what kind of movie will be arranged for us." Yu Jing still has a little expectation in his heart.
The air rail gradually descends to meet the huge cinema in the heart of the city. The cinema is two blocks in size, more than any other building in the city.
The area around the sealed movie theater is also crawling with crazy infected people, probably because of the smell of people inside the movie theater, millions of infected people have piled up in a hill around the movie theater, but they still can't get inside.
As the train approached, the main entrance of the cinema opened.
The infected were torn apart by an invisible quantum force field as they attempted to storm the gate.
The four people sitting on the train were not affected in any way and came to the inside of the cinema through the gate. Unlike the previous North Branch, there was no infection in the theater, and a large number of staff were in charge of related work in the theater.
A lean male worker was in charge of receiving the four people who walked off the train.
"Welcome to the 'Cinema', you are quite fast, being one of the first to arrive at the cinema, which means that you have more options and opportunities to obtain valuable items."
"How do you choose a movie here?" Yu Jing gets straight to the point.
"We're different from a regular cinema in that we have different types of films in different areas, and you can visit them as you like."
Under the instructions of the staff, Yu Jing and others were active in the huge movie theater, and there were three different screening halls in the movie, corresponding to the 'infected zombie film', 'supernatural horror film' and 'game decryption film'.
"Excuse me, can this thing be used with you?" After a general understanding of the structure of the movie theater, Yu Jing took out the "premium movie coupon" in his hand.
"Of course, are you sure you can use it? This will feature a premium film in each of the three screening halls. The difficulty of high-level movies is naturally higher, and the rewards you get are more generous, and there are relatively many side plots inside. ”
"Confirm use."
As soon as Yu Jing confirmed, the black movie coupon in his hand quickly turned into powder and disappeared.
"The senior movie has been released, and the four of you have half an hour to make your choice, good luck to you!"
