Chapter 30: The Ghoul Hunt (6)

What a ghostly creature...... It quietly got into the cage and ate the bait, and left here unconsciously, Zhao Gao and Lu Xun risked sleeping all night, without even seeing each other's true faces. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

If it's a game of cat and mouse, then the old cat is just too much of a failure...... The two cats crouched at the bait, and the rat sneaked in and killed the cheese in a grand manner, and the cat didn't even see its shadow.

Zhao Gao squatted on the edge of the trap and looked at the empty cage in a daze.

He smiled suddenly.

"Finally got you......"

"Is it a ghoul?" Lu Xun asked.

Zhao Gao got up, nodded, turned around and pushed Lu Xun, "Let's go back and prepare...... Next time it's your turn. ”

Lu Xun followed Zhao Gao and walked back, suddenly stunned.

There was a slight sting in his back, and an inexplicable feeling suddenly rose in Lu Xun's heart, some creature was looking at him, as if someone was standing in the dark and staring at him...... This feeling was fleeting, but when that gaze swept over, Lu Xun was like a thorn in his back, and he turned his head to look, and there was a dead silence in the dark ruins.

"What's wrong?" Lao Jia asked.

"It looks like someone is spying on us......" Lu Xun shook his head, "probably an illusion." ”

The two returned to the pickup one after the other, and their backs disappeared into the night.

The only two humans in the ruins were gone, the smell of death and decay was back in the air, and the night was as dark as a piece of iron, and the bricks and weeds of the high-rise ruins were crushed underneath. There was a faint cracking sound, breaking the silence, the rubble rolled down, a series of "rustling" grinding sounds from far and near, someone shuffling through the grass, he stepped on the road, his head bowed.

This is an infected, who looks to be some years old, with tattered clothes, and an old bacon zombie.

Zombies are not afraid of the sun, activity time is day and night, they will come out to forage when they lack energy, these years there are fewer and fewer living people, more and more dead, zombies have been difficult to find survivors, more than ten years ago that time is worth remembering for zombies, at that time survivors are everywhere, they are weak and weak to capture, the meat is fresh and juice is sufficient, zombies never worry about no food...... But this golden age did not last long, and the survivors were quickly eaten, and the infected had to turn their attention to other creatures.

The same kind is undoubtedly not a good choice, and the flesh of the infected is rough and dry, and it tastes like wood to gnaw.

Wild animals are difficult to catch, and herbivores such as antelope and deer are agile and fast, and hunters may be able to successfully catch them...... As for the inved, they can't even catch each other's hair. Large carnivorous beasts rarely appear in cities, but even if they do, they are not something that ordinary infected people can deal with, and an adult brown bear can slap zombies apart with a single slap, which is more powerful than lurkers.

The infected were able to catch the rats, but the rats were too hungry to eat.

The lack of food has made it more and more difficult for the zombies to survive...... In these years, the dead are no longer blind.

The old bacon zombie staggered forward, and then a second infected appeared in the grass, and it followed onto the road.

The third zombie appeared, followed by the fourth, the fifth, and one zombie after another...... This is very abnormal, large-scale zombie swarms are rare nowadays, the infected do not have the habit of running at night, let alone come out and wander around without prey, in the absence of prey, the infected will shrink into the building to sleep to reduce energy consumption.

A succession of zombies stepped onto the road, forming two long neat lines and walking in the lanes on both sides of the road.

If Zhao Gao Lu Xun saw this scene here, he would probably be so shocked that his jaw would drop.

If hunters are low-IQ creatures, then infected are brainless creatures...... Although zombies love to eat the brains of their prey, this is probably only because the taste of the brain is as tender and smooth as tofu brain, not because eating the brain can replenish the brain's IQ...... From a biological point of view, zombies are truly brainless creatures, they are the living dead, the brain tissue has been completely fibroticized, and all brain cells have lost their vitality, which means that zombies do not have any ability to think and learn.

If you rank the creatures in this world according to their IQ, then they should be from low to high: infected, xenomorph, hunter, human.

Infected individuals have the lowest intelligence and appear to be humanoids, but in the world of intelligence, they are on the same level as paramecium.

So zombies should be unorganized and undisciplined, no one can manipulate zombies, hunters can be organized because they also have a brain that can accept orders from high-level hunters, but zombies are a group of paramecium...... Who can command paramecium?

Wanting to make the zombies obedient is tantamount to reasoning with the stone, no matter what you say, the sky is falling and the spit is flying, and the stone will not react at all, not because you are not good...... Rather, it's because the stone doesn't have a brain at all.

But now these zombies are lined up neatly and neatly, and they look like the ancient county officials are traveling, and they are almost holding a sign that says "idlers avoid".

How is this possible? Could it be that someone really brought the stone back to life?

The creepy procession silently weaves through the streets, the zombies staggering with their heads down, appearing and disappearing into the night, looking like underdogs...... Since ancient times, China has the legend of "Yin soldiers borrow the road", as the saying goes: Yin goes three, Yang walks four, a chicken cries to divide life and death, which means that the dead people travel on the third watch, and the living people can travel after the fourth watch, even if they have to rush on the third watch, they have to kill a rooster to ward off evil spirits.

The living dead lined up in long lines, like ghosts from hell, walking along the pavement, almost brushing shoulders with the traps set by Zhao Gao, dark nylon cloth cages standing on the rubble piles by the roadside, shaking with the night breeze.

A clanging of metal sounded, larger monsters appeared at the back of the group, and a Titan emerged from the night, unlike any other Titan...... The xenomorph was covered in heavy iron armor, and the black armor wrapped its body tightly, revealing only two eyes, like a medieval hoplite.

Two heavily armed Titans followed the team, one behind the other, carrying a pair of shelves on their shoulders, similar to the steps of ancient emperors, except that the emperor sat on the steps, and a black coffin was placed on this shelf.

The coffin is only two meters long, and it looks ordinary and simple, with no decorations and no flowers.

The Titans carried the coffins forward, and they were covered with iron armor with an astonishing weight, so the pace was slow, and it turned out that so many zombies had made way for this coffin...... It was as if it were a funeral procession, with the living dead being relatives and friends walking in front and the Titans being the soul-supporters, whose ultimate purpose was to transport the coffin.

But where are they going to transport the coffins? With such a death team, the destination can only be hell, right?

The titan carrying the coffin also faded into the night, the footsteps disappeared far away, and the nylon cloth cage remained in place, as if none of this had ever happened.
