Chapter 20: The Jackal and the Lamb
In Wang Zhen's impression, zombies belong to an idiot species with stiff limbs and slow movement, and their clumsy mobility is not capable of climbing and jumping at all.
If not, how could so many survivors survive?
As long as they are not infected by the virus transmitted through the air, people invariably choose to seal the doors and windows when avoiding the zombies, so as to cut off the impact of the zombies. As long as there is not much movement, which attracts zombies to storm the gate frantically, the survivors who are hiding will be safe and sound.
Dahan and Ah Xiang did just that, and the tables, chairs, and containers piled up at the company's gate are the best proof, and the ventilation vents above the gate were subconsciously ignored.
Do zombies know what a vent is? Even if they found a vent to enter, would the zombies still be able to climb up?
The answer is simple – no.
Not to mention that it is impossible for zombies to climb up, even if a normal person with quick movements wants to climb up, it is absolutely impossible without the help of tools!
Outside the company, the corridor was empty, not to mention that there was no ladder to climb, not even tables, chairs and benches that could be used to step on, and how could zombies climb up in the face of smooth walls?
No one believes it, no one notices, and everyone subconsciously thinks that as long as the door doesn't open, they're safe.
But at this moment, when Wang Zhen and Dahan saw the zombies squatting on the vents, all the common sense they thought they thought was overturned.
With just one glance, Wang Zhen and Dahan's hearts sank to the bottom, and cold sweat soaked their clothes in an instant.
Dahan's eyes widened, and his voice trembled and he said to himself, "How is it possible, how did he get up?" How is this possible......"
Wang Zhen looked at the zombie that was rotting like a skeleton, and naturally thought of skin and bones.
"Another zombie with a skinny talent?" Thinking of the skin, Wang Zhen immediately locked it with his eyebrows and probed its attributes.
zombie
Race: Undead
Species: Xenogene
Talent: Skinny
Combat effectiveness: F
As he guessed, this zombie was exactly the same as the one he had killed before, and his talent was "skinny and bone"!
Combined with Dahan's fire element talent, as well as his own spiritual talent, Wang Zhen vaguely grasped the key point of the matter - talent, as literally written, should be the special ability he has.
If skinny is a special ability, then does it mean that this zombie is not an ordinary zombie? Rather, it got some kind of evolutionary mutation?
Under the nervous gaze of Wang Zhen and Dahan, above the vent, the zombie that was as immobile as a statue finally moved. I saw that it leaned back slightly, and the whole body stretched out extremely smoothly, and then suddenly accelerated, and disappeared in an instant.
Looking at the vents that suddenly became empty, Wang Zhen and Dahan gasped together.
Can zombies with more flexible limbs than humans still be called zombies? This TM should be called a mourning monkey!
Under the influence of Wang Zhen and Dahan, more and more people discovered the anomaly, and then followed the gaze of the two of them, but they saw nothing, only a vent that had lost its baffle, and then left the hall with an inexplicable face.
Dahan retracted his gaze and asked with some uncertainty, "Not an illusion?" ”
Wang Zhen nodded solemnly.
Dahan was puzzled: "Can zombies climb walls?" Can they be so flexible in their actions? ”
Wang Zhen didn't want to say anything about the attributes he could see, so he could only think about the language and explain from the side: "This kind of zombie with a particularly exaggerated degree of decay is not an ordinary zombie. As you should have seen, it is the same as the zombie I killed, not only does it have the same skinny appearance, but it also has flexible limbs that are not weaker than humans, and it may even have some intelligence......"
Dahan was taken aback: "Wisdom? ”
Wang Zhen looked around and said, "Well, otherwise, why didn't it jump in?" According to the characteristics of zombies, after they see a living person, shouldn't they rather be beaten to the head and bleed than bite? If it doesn't have wisdom, why run away? ”
At this point, all the puzzles are solved.
Needless to say, the skinny bones possess a certain amount of intelligence, no matter how far that wisdom may go, but at least they know how to stealth and control their desire to eat human flesh.
The first zombie that attacked Wang Zhen was like this, it did not rush to eat human flesh, but sneaked behind Wang Zhen in the dark, preparing to carry out a surprise attack, but was discovered by Liu Xiaohai in advance. And in the battle with Wang Zhen, the motor nerves it showed were also very good, and all of this showed the extraordinaryness of this kind of skinny zombie!
In this way, their situation is even more precarious.
They couldn't seal the vents above the gate without the right tools, and of course, they couldn't do that with the tools, and no one in this zombie-infested office building would be stupid enough to hammer a nail in the wee hours of the morning, which would only attract angry zombies to storm the company's door.
In desperation, Wang Zhen found some crisp-sounding debris and piled it up on the vent, once the skinny bone came back, he would touch the debris if he was not careful. Falling from a height like a fragile object like a glass would definitely wake them up from their slumber, and this is the best vigilance tool at the moment.
As for the office lobby, it has completely become a danger zone.
In addition to Wang Zhen and Dahan, Liu Xiaohai also saw the skinny one, but because he was too timid, it was not until Wang Zhen blocked the vent that he crawled out from under the table with a pale face.
For Liu Xiaohai's cowardly character, Wang Zhen really hates iron and steel, and he believes that people like Ah Xiang and Dahan will definitely kick Liu Xiaohai out of the team and feed zombies at a time of crisis.
Who wants to leave such a drag oil bottle? It is no exaggeration to say that Liu Xiaohai is not even as strong as Lin Jiali's combat effectiveness......
But such an introverted person saved him many times, so despite all the helplessness, Wang Zhen dragged Liu Xiaohai out of Ah Xiang's team and arranged him into the office where Dahan's group was located, as a reward.
After all this, the company was quiet again, and people returned to the rooms deep in the hall.
To Wang Zhen's surprise, after Lin Jiali bandaged Ah Xiang's wounds, she took the initiative to tie Ah Xiang up, threw him alone in the hall, and then came to Wang Zhen's office and lay quietly in a corner of the office.
"Uh, is this the legendary bitter meat trick? And then...... Add another beauty meter? ”
Well, although Wang Zhen doesn't like women who are too strong, he makes some exceptions to Lin Jiali, because he always feels that there is something in Lin Jiali that makes him excited, especially when Lin Jiali quiets down, this feeling becomes stronger and stronger.
At this time, seeing Lin Jiali lying quietly in the corner of the office, he really couldn't take his eyes off.
For Wang Zhen's gaze, the big man sitting next to him saw it clearly, and leaned over with a lewd smile and whispered: "How is it?" Do you want the brothers to go out for a while and make your kid happy? ”
Hearing this, Wang Zhen smiled bitterly and shook his head, although he did have this idea in his heart, but he was just thinking about it, he would never really do it, after all, he was not the kind of villain who took advantage of people's danger, not to mention that he also knew very well that the reason why Lin Jiali came to the room where he was was was just looking for a sense of security, and he was not seducing anyone at all.
Now that Ah Xiang is injured and unconscious, abandoned by everyone in the office hall, what should she do if she is a weak woman in the men's pile? If she didn't find a man to support her as soon as possible, in this desperate environment, she would easily be targeted by those hungry wolves, which would be tantamount to a catastrophe for her......
A woman, staying alone in the hall outside, will undoubtedly become the target of those villains in the dead of night, don't look at everyone in normal times, once it is the end of the world, when you are forced into a desperate situation by death, the ugliness of human nature will definitely be exposed, as the so-called peony flower is also a ghost to die, not to mention that Lin Jiali is still such a superb woman.
The current Lin Jiali is a lamb to be slaughtered, and Wang Zhen has directly become a fierce jackal through the two battles tonight!
Therefore, now only Wang Zhen can bring enough deterrence.
Maybe this is a woman's only way to survive in the last days, how can a woman like Lin Jiali not understand the truth?
Wang Zhen doesn't like this feeling, but he likes the feeling of being a jackal, because he knows that this is a man's way to survive in the last days, and if you want to become a qualified jackal, you must constantly improve your strength!
Thinking of this, Wang Zhen began to shift his gaze, until he met the eyes of the big man, and Wang Zhen's eyes that lacked interest were suddenly full of desire.
"Brother?" Being stared at by Wang Zhen's eyes brightly, Dahan moved back very unnaturally, and then smiled awkwardly: "Brother, it's, in fact, I like women......"
Wang Zhen shook his head and said excitedly: "It's okay, I like women too!" ”
Seeing that the desire in Wang Zhen's eyes was not decreasing but increasing, the big man moved back again, and smiled awkwardly: "Brother, have taste, both men and women eat?" Hehe, this ...... To be honest, I haven't tried it yet......"
Nima!
Wang Zhen was stunned for a moment, and then scolded: "Lao Tzu hasn't tried it either, hurry up and take out your gold necklace!" ”
