Chapter 26: Listen to the story
Leaving the small village, we set out on a dirt road covered with vegetation.
Zhang Chen felt more and more that this world was too weird.
It's summer, the scorching sun is in the sky, there is not the slightest insect song and bird call, the whole world, silent horror!
"Zhang Chen!"
"Do you think the world is weird too?"
Poison Island called Zhang Chen with a questioning tone, and Zhang Chen asked with a frown.
"Well, I have an ominous premonition."
nodded solemnly, now Poison Island Tsuko, who has no weapons in hand, can't play half of his usual strength!
"Otherwise, let's get into the travel vehicle?"
After thinking about it, Zhang Chen proposed, he was not afraid, but without weapons, Poison Island did not have the strength of Zhang Chen.
"Is that still a risk? Rest assured, I'm not that vulnerable. ”
Tilting his head and smiling slightly, Poison Island said very casually.
Looking at the majestic castle in the distance, Zhang Chen's eyes flickered, and he had a plan in his heart.
"Then the top priority is to find you a weapon, no matter what, you have to have the strength to fight against the zombies."
The two of them walked for a long time on the mountain road, and after a while, they saw the modern road.
"It doesn't seem to be the Stone Age, it's still a modern setting."
Overturned the speculation in his heart, and seeing the winding asphalt road, Zhang Chen affirmed the background of this world.
Continuing along the road to the bluestone castle, they came across a motorcycle that fell in the grass on the side of the road, tried it, and it could be started, and the two continued to set off on the motorcycle.
Motorcycles gallop on winding mountain roads, roaring engines echoing through the mountains.
An hour and a half later, the motorbike arrived at the edge of a town.
"Be careful."
was about to get out of the car and go into the city to search, Zhang Chen reminded Poison Island Tsuko.
The two of them could not hear anything except their own footsteps.
turned on the thermal vision, glanced around, and found no heat source, even so, Zhang Chen also had a strong sense of unease, he always felt that something was nearby!
The important thing is that the thing is staring at itself and Poison Island!
Naturally, he approached Poison Island Tsuneko, holding her slender and slightly cool left hand, Poison Island Tsuneko turned his head and glanced at Zhang Chen.
Finding Zhang Chen's solemn expression, she knew that Zhang Chen must have noticed something
Because of her personality and tutor, Poison Island didn't ask or show anything, she just had an extra vigilance in her heart.
"Poof!"
A sharp blade suddenly appeared, piercing directly into Zhang Chen's heart, Zhang Chen's pupils shrank, and he saw that there was suddenly a young man in black in front of him, his hair was dirty, and his skin was full of dirt, even the black clothes were this color because they were dirty, but his eyes were very outstanding.
It was a pair of cold, poisonous eyes!
"I've been in ambush here for a long time! Celestials! ”
The young man said indignantly, and at the same time pulled out the short sword that was inserted into Zhang Chen's heart.
In his opinion, Zhang Chen is already certain to die, and the poison island next to him can't make any waves.
"You're all going to die!"
As he spoke, he stabbed at Poison Island with a short sword.
A short sword was grasped, and the young man slowly turned his head in disbelief.
"You... How can it be!? ”
Seeing that there was no trace of blood on Zhang Chen's chest and no wounds, the young man was very uneasy.
"For the sake of your target not me, I can give you a chance to explain, I am not the so-called Celestial Race as you said."
Regardless of the sharp short sword cutting through his palm, Zhang Chen used his right hand to snatch the short sword directly.
"What do you say? Aren't you a celestial in the City of Miracles?! So who are you? Why is it here? ”
The young man took two steps back vigilantly, ready to flee at any moment.
"You can call us travelers. How about a traveler passing by from a very, very distant place telling us stories about this world? ”
Playing with the sharp short sword that he snatched, Zhang Chen asked with interest.
"Give me back my weapon first."
The man's voice was cold, giving others the feeling of being rejected from the crowd.
"That's not good, you gave me a knife in the heart, this weapon, it's an apology."
Shaking the heavy and unusually sharp short sword in his hand, Zhang Chen said as a matter of course.
"Tsuko, what do you think of this sword?"
Throwing the six-inch short sword to Poison Island Tsuneko, Zhang Chen looked at the man with an unkind face, and it could be seen from his face that this short sword was very important to him.
After a moment of silence, the man said, "If you want to know the information, you have to pay the corresponding payment, and in your place, I only want my weapon back." ”
Without waiting for Zhang Chen to speak, Poison Island Yanzi took the lead and said, "Yes." ”
"This sword is too short for me."
Explaining to Zhang Chen with a smile, Poison Island Tsuneko stuffed the short sword into Zhang Chen's hand.
"Say it."
Throwing the weapon back to the young man, Zhang Chen wanted to know what was going on in this world.
"Where do you start?"
Stroking his weapon, the man's expression was also a little dazed.
"This is not the way this world is, you start from the beginning."
Randomly found a shop on the side of the road with the shutter door closed, Zhang Chen violently destroyed the shutter door, and the three of them walked into the dusty shop, where they listened to the young man tell the story.
"That has to start from five years ago, five years ago, I was just an ordinary fresh graduate, and my previous life was all about reading and going to school! At that time, I was new to this colorful world, and I was full of good expectations for it. Unexpectedly, it appeared. ”
Five years ago, Azure Star, the only planet with life in the universe known to the Azure Star people, the civilization of this planet is not much different from the earth, and the difference is not much that before that appears, after that appearance, there is a difference of 108,000 miles from the earth.
That refers to the bluestone castle that Zhang Chen saw, and the people of Azure Star call it the city of miracles.
It's called the City of Wonders because you can see it whenever and wherever you are! And as long as you want to reach the city of miracles in your heart, you can reach it by walking 10,000 kilometers!
Its appearance was a mystery, but soon, within a few months of its appearance, monsters began to appear all over the world of Azure Star, and the monsters that fed on people were the kind of enhanced zombies that Zhang Chen had encountered before.
Soon, the world was turned upside down, as there were more and more zombies, there were fewer and fewer humans, zombies were very strong, and the most desperate ones were more than that, some beasts also began to become stronger, and humans were in danger!
Fortunately, there is a crystallization in the brains of zombies, which has a chance to allow humans to evolve and have stronger strength and faster speed.
