Chapter 70: The Old District (3)

"Looks like we're in big trouble."

After climbing up, I looked around and immediately took a breath of cold air. Many intersections were blocked by collapsed objects, and there were no gaps at all.

This is a very strange thing, a month ago, the road here was very wide. Now it's like this, and I really don't know what happened in the last month.

"Could it be artificial? For example, cannibals. Karl's eyes flashed slightly, and he said thoughtfully.

"Them." Constance was also stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said: "Even they know that they can't block the road, because the prey of the ghosts is not only the survivors, but the cannibals are also one of the targets, and if they block the road, they will also be hindered when they escape." ”

"Could it be a ghost?" Karl's face was a little stunned, and he obviously didn't believe his guess.

Of course, it's more likely that you'd rather not believe it, because if the ghosts had consciously and systematically hunted the survivors, the casualties would have been more than ten times higher than before.

"Probably not." "I'm more inclined to the weather," Constantin mused. For example, acid rain, so that it is possible to destroy those buildings on a large scale. Otherwise, some ghosts alone won't be able to do anything. Constance replied.

"It rained a month ago, don't you remember? Although the rain has never been tested by hand to see if it is acid rain or normal rain, traces can still be seen on some of the statues. He said.

"Well, although the road is blocked, it doesn't mean that there is no way out, as long as you are patient, there will always be a way out."

"Let's keep walking!"

Constantin didn't wait for Karl to say anything, he always had a vigorous way of doing things, and he never dragged his feet.

Seeing this, although Carl is very worried about the prospect, it is still important to hurry for now, and it is better not to think too much about things that are too far away.

The two of them jumped off the garbage heap and did not stop, and after a few mutters, Constein decided to go off the beaten path and go straight into the factory.

Of course, this interior refers to the place by the window, and he knows very well where to go and where to actively avoid.

When I came to an industrial building, some English signboards on the lintel had already fallen from it, soaked in a puddle in front of the door, and dyed a moss green up and down.

Carl stood at the door, looked inside, sighed, and said, "It's really a half-finished dangerous building, and there is no safety at all." ”

"Don't be disgusted, boy, if we don't, we'll have to go around in a big circle, and it means we won't be there before sunset." Konstein shook his head and said seriously.

"And we can't go into the safe circle before sunset, which means that we have to rest in a dangerous dark area, so it's a fool's dream to survive the night."

"You know, the mortality rate of a person who is active at night is as high as 70 percent!"

"What a terrible mortality!" Carl gasped as he shook his heart.

"Then it doesn't matter if we're late, right? Isn't it? As long as it's not too late, then our security shouldn't be a big problem. Karl thought for a moment and said.

Hearing this, Constance smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It is true that this is true according to common sense, but that organization has a strict rule that no one is allowed to enter or leave after sunset. The statement they gave was for everyone's safety, and although everyone was a little uncomfortable when they were bound to freedom, they didn't object to anything, after all, it wasn't a big deal. ”

"Then they really don't give any affection? Do you really keep people out and don't let them in? Carl asked suspiciously, a sweat breaking out of his palm.

"Yes, indeed." Constan's astonishing utterances struck Carl by the fact.

However, Carl thought about it carefully, but felt that it was extremely reasonable, and if it were him, he would also give up the interests of a small number of people for the safety of everyone.

Besides, it has been clearly stipulated that everyone must arrive before sunset, and if they can't make it, they can only blame themselves for not fighting their legs and complaining about others.

And more importantly, as a leader, you must start from the interests of the majority, if the leader is an emotional person, I believe that everyone will not feel safe.

Therefore, the leader can't gamble, and he can't afford to gamble, because it is likely that the ghost will be introduced because of the introduction of a person, even if the probability is only 0.1 percent, and the leader that people need is not a gambler, but a person who can lead everyone to survive.

People prefer leaders to be able to distinguish between public and private affairs rather than emotional.

Of course, this is on the premise of others, not on oneself.

The two didn't want this to happen to them, so they didn't stop for a moment, running briskly, and walking the whole distance at the fastest and safest speed.

"Why did it stop all of a sudden?"

Carl exhaled in pain, covered his nose and said, he didn't understand why Konstan stopped suddenly, didn't he know that it was very dangerous?

"Strange, shouldn't this statue of Our Lady be on the side of the ghetto church?" Constance looked puzzled.

"What Madonna?" Carl also asked puzzled.

Constance pointed, "Look, there it is." ”

In the direction pointed by Constance, there were several fine stones lying on the wet mud floor covered by canvas, but it was not difficult to tell that it was the statue of the Virgin broken into several pieces.

Because Carl was standing on the second floor, they could see it very clearly from a condescending angle, where the shattered statue of the Virgin was lying, and the statue that had been ingenious was now covered in mud.

"Is it the Church of the Virgin in the Brook district? Why is it here? Karl's eyes flashed with doubt.

He recognized this statue because he had been there when he was a child, and because this statue has a very old history, it was a school group to visit.

However, it is not the business of the two of them who got it.

"Boy, pray? Maybe it can bring you a little luck. Constance chuckled.

Although he doesn't believe it either, every time he is nervous, he uses prayers to imply that he has been blessed, so there is no need to worry about everything. Not to mention, this kind of psychological suggestion is really very effective, and the tension will disappear quickly.

"Didn't the so-called omniscient and omnipotent abandon his people long ago?" Carl laughed, he was an atheist himself, and now that Heaton City was about to be destroyed, and no fart happened, it made him even more suspicious.
