Chapter 7: The Squire
After the giant female walking corpse was killed, most of the xenos in the city center converged a lot, except for the extremely manic xenos, there were no extraneous branches along the way.
After sniping the xenos at the entrance of Lingfeng Tower from afar, Huang Shang drove into his final destination.
After looking at the woman who was unconscious in the co-pilot for a while, Huang Shang got out of the car and put her on his shoulder, and quietly walked into the tower.
Due to night control, even when the disaster broke out, the Lingfeng Pagoda was empty, so there were no xenomorphs here, and there was still the appearance of the original scenic spot.
There are sixteen Arhat statues hanging on the walls, which are a little scary when viewed in the dimness.
Climbing to the top floor and blocking the staircase, Huang Shang breathed a sigh of relief and put the woman on his shoulder to the wall, only to breathe a sigh of relief.
This woman was dressed in a wartime military uniform, with wheat-colored skin under her cold appearance, and under the light, she was like a kaolin flower, longing but unattainable, but after experiencing a death battle, she was extremely depressed.
Blood spread from the corners of his mouth to all parts of his body, and there was a large gash on his forehead, which seemed to have been left from the previous battle, and his gray cheeks still showed the fear before he fell unconscious.
If Huang Shang hadn't fled with her in the car at the last moment, it is estimated that the beauty in the army in front of him would have become a delicacy under the mouth of the alien.
When the end comes, everyone is in danger, even the current Huang Shang does not dare to guarantee 100% that his life is safe, let alone the extremely risky thing of saving others.
Su Lan was rescued, partly because she was only a few steps away from Huang Shang before she passed out, and another reason was because Huang Shang had witnessed the whole process of her battle with Xenos before the death battle began.
Acting neatly, calmly, and cruelly, this is Su Lan's first impression of Huang Shang, and she served in the army before, and she has insights and action beyond ordinary people for orders or tasks.
For this kind of talent, if he can obey himself ideologically, Huang Shang naturally can't ask for it, and the construction of the base is impossible for him to complete alone, although personal strength is the decisive factor for a person's survival in the last days, but if you want to further expand your own power, the role of people will be highlighted.
If he is to gain a foothold in the apocalypse, he will need more talents, of course, on the premise that he will be loyal to himself.
"Uh.... Ahem, cough, cough. ”
After a moan, there was a series of violent coughs, Su Lan opened his eyes, covering his chest in pain, he was hit by a boulder before, and now he only felt as uncomfortable as if he was about to fall apart.
"Are you awake?" Huang Shang leaned against the staircase and looked at her with a smile.
Su Lan, who was still in a semi-comatose state, heard a male voice, and instantly became clever, endured severe pain and rolled on the spot, found a huge pillar to hide, and was about to pull out a gun and aim at the man who was talking.
"It's not good to want to point a gun at your savior." Huang Shang took out the Type 92 pistol from his waist and played with it in his hand for a while.
"Who are you? What is the purpose of arresting me? Don't think I'm going to compromise if I take my weapon! ”
Su Lan's first reaction was to be hijacked by foreign forces, after all, her previous mission was to protect foreign guests, and the aliens and zombies she encountered were also taken for granted by her as biological and chemical weapons used by foreign forces against her country.
Looking at Su Lan's cautious appearance and his agile actions of hiding in cover as soon as he woke up, Huang Shang nodded with satisfaction and asked, "You seem to treat me as a bad person?" ”
"Joke, are you a good person?" Su Lan raised his eyebrows and gritted his teeth.
"Hey, I rescued you, what happened before you fell unconscious? You were hit by a boulder, and if I hadn't dragged you into the car, you would have only bones left now. Huang Shang stretched and said comfortably.
"It seems like that's the case......" Su Lan showed a thoughtful expression, and then became cautious: "Then I'm not sure you're a good person!" ”
"I didn't say that I was a good person, I was just your savior, don't worry, I won't do anything to you, if you're willing to be obedient." Huang Shang said with a smile.
"What about my brothers? What did you do with them! Su Lan asked eagerly, she suddenly remembered that she had led a regiment of troops to fight before.
"Dead."
"You, you beast!" His lips began to tremble, and tears began to roll down the corners of Su Lan's eyes.
"Hey, you're being stoned, aren't you? I didn't kill them, but according to the strength of your brothers, even ten of them would not be enough for them to fight. Huang Shang spread his hands and showed his innocence.
"Even if it's against xenos, they can't all die, how can they all die?!" Su Lan's beautiful eyes widened, and her breathing trembled a little, "I... I remember that only 172 people were sacrificed. ”
"That was an hour ago, and now, all dead." Huang Shang said helplessly: "No way, who calls it too many xenomorphs, that thing can't be killed." ”
"Do you remember that big guy?" Huang Shang reminded.
Su Lan was agitated and stopped talking, she knew the power and horror of that thing.
"Then why did you save me?"
Seemingly completely awakened from her coma, she picked up her legs, still guarding against Huang Shang, but her tone was much more relaxed.
"Well..... If I think about it, I think that after the end of the world, it won't be a problem if there is no woman by my side to serve me, right? It is always impossible for a man to use his hands all the time to solve certain needs. Huang Shang said with a smile.
"You, you bastard! I'm going to die..."Hearing Huang Shang's teasing, Su Lan bit his lip tightly, took out a dagger from his waist neatly, and put it on his neck fiercely, just for a second, there was a trace of blood.
"Huh? I'm just kidding, of course I saved you because I was brave and brave, and now I am in dire need of manpower, you are a soldier, the quality is very strong, I am very satisfied. Huang Shang hurriedly waved his hand and motioned for her to take the knife down.
"Righteousness ......and courage" Su Lan slowly put down the knife, pursed his lips, his eyes full of tears tried to see Huang Shang's face clearly, and finally sighed and said: "No matter what, thank you, there are still many good people in this world." ”
"You won't think like that in the future." Huang Shang said in his heart, and at the same time sighed, he didn't expect that the casual statement of righteousness and courage was believed by this woman.
I don't know if she is kind and upright, or if she has not completed the transformation of her mind in the last days.
Huang Shang made up his mind that he would train her well in the future and make her his right-hand man.
"I can take you in, bring you food, keep you safe, and in exchange you will need to obey any of my orders unconditionally." Huang Shang suddenly became serious, walked up to her, and said.
"Ugh!" Su Lan immediately protected his chest and said vigilantly: "Impossible! ”
"I mean, you're going to obey me for anything other than the dirty thoughts you have in your head right now." Huang Shang reacted and said with a smile.
"I choose to leave, you have no right to interfere with my freedom."
Always felt that Huang Shang's smile was a little weird, Su Lan stood up, hid the pistol from Huang Shang's hand, and wanted to walk out along the stairs.
"Whatever you want, but I suggest you take a look outside before you go out." Huang Shang said unhurriedly to Su Lan.
seemed to feel that what Huang Shang said made some sense, Su Lan walked to the edge of the railing, looked down, and saw that due to the sight, a dense patch, all of them were xenomorphs who had fallen into a frenzy, and now they belonged to the outbreak period of mutation, and if they went down with a pistol, they were undoubtedly looking for death.
Su Lan was a little depressed, and suddenly bowed down, as if sobbing, after all, she was still a girl, her entire regiment was wiped out, and after the headquarters issued the order to fight to the death, it was impossible for her to lick her face and return to the headquarters, and even if she wanted to go back, with the ferocity of the alien species outside, it was undoubtedly a fool's dream.
"I hope you will keep the promise between us." As if he had figured out something, Su Lan stood up, wiped the tears from his face, and said.
"Of course, my guards." Huang Shang said with a smile.
The corners of Su Lan's eyes twitched slightly, but he didn't say anything, and lowered his head slightly.
"Here's dry food for you, eat it, and go to the staircase for the vigil, it's your first mission." Throwing a package of compressed food and instant meat into Su Lan's hands, Huang Shang found a hidden place to sit down.
"Go, don't come near without my orders." It seemed to be deliberate, and Huang Shang deliberately accentuated his tone.
"Yes." Feeling a little humiliated, Su Lan glanced at him, then squatted down, hugged the food and devoured it, like that, there was a different kind of beauty.
Noticing that Su Lan had gone to stand guard at the staircase, Huang Shang opened the host app on his phone and began to activate his previous skills.
"The host has reached lv2 and has acquired two unknown skills."
"Activate." Huang Shang ordered.
"Start activating the Machine's skills, please wait"
"Congratulations to the host, the skill has been activated"
"Activate Action Skill: Hidden (Stealth for a very short period of time, during which time all visual signals are blocked)"
"Activate the passive skill: Cold-Blooded (when using the Assassin Sniper Rifle, the host's body temperature is greatly reduced and close to the ambient threshold, the heart beats slowly, the amplitude and frequency are slightly reduced, and the breath-holding time is slightly increased)"
"Host skills can be continuously strengthened according to the level increase"
At this time, Huang Shang was so excited that he almost jumped up, Shen Yin? Can be invisible in battle! This skill is simply invincible in the course of the battle!
And the passive skill of the cold-blooded animal also greatly increases his shooting accuracy, and he can almost reach the point of no miss!
"Really...... Against God! Huang Shang was shocked in his heart.
