When Song Ming looked at the classmates in the school who usually preached the uselessness of learning, and only knew how to play, they drove luxury cars and hugged beautiful women one by one, either taking over the family business, or the family had already arranged a job, he realized how cruel this society is.

Others live chic because others have the qualifications to be chic.

If you follow the chic, it means that you are too stupid.

Song Ming was very smart, he didn't follow the chic.

His parents were just ordinary workers in the sewage plant, and they couldn't help him, and he knew that his only way out was to study hard.

But that didn't help, he wasn't a genius, and he chose the wrong major, and the environmental engineering major didn't have a good career - compared to those who won at the starting line, he didn't even have the qualifications to stand on the starting line, and studying hard only gave him a chance to survive in this cruel society.

Now he has to lower his arrogant head for a salary of two or three thousand yuan, and live in this rental house of less than 10 square meters.

If you don't have money, you have nothing, and you don't even have the qualifications to kneel and lick the big guy.

What is the meaning of his current life?

Song Ming looked at the dark blue circle of light in front of him and fell into deep thought.

A month ago, he discovered that he suddenly had the ability to summon a space-time gate.

Half a month ago, he began to use his computer camera to confirm the situation on the other side of the space-time gate, where there was another world, and the time of the two worlds was synchronized.

Now, the computer screen in front of Song Ming was showing the situation on the other side of the space-time gate.

The cars on the street were crowded together, and the cars that looked very advanced were all crashed together and completely deformed, but the bodies inside were not visible. The roadside shops were in shambles, all the glass was smashed, and the shelves were looted, and Song Ming could almost guess how chaotic it was.

In the distance, futuristic buildings are covered with birds, billboards are covered in dust, neon signs have lost their color, collapsed high-rise buildings are no longer majestic, weeds are coming out of cracked cracks in the road, most of the road surface is submerged in calf-high barren grass, and the streets that should have been bustling have fallen into silence, and the desolation and loneliness that pervades the land in this city that seems to have been after the war.

There are also some scattered suspected zombie stuff wandering around.

It is suspected that zombies are because the body surface of those things is dry, reflecting a faint metallic luster, and it is more like a dried corpse like the living dead.

Now, he finally understands what this strong sense of immediacy is all about: "This is the rhythm of opening the protagonist's template and walking to the pinnacle of life!" ”

If there is a sound like "drop, XX system has been activated" at this time, it will be even more appropriate.

"The mice are normal, there are bird activities visually, the air is judged to be non-toxic, the group activity of suspected zombies is day and night, the speed of action is normal, and there is no visible law......"

Song Ming put down the pen, and the paper was written with dense observation data, and he began to check it one last time.

"Food, OK!"

"Emergency medicine, OK!"

"Gas masks, OK!"

"Safety helmet, OK!"

"Field training uniforms, OK!"

"Weapons, OK!"

While the "dry corpses" group was leaving, he resisted the carefully prepared backpack used to cover up and drilled into the aperture!

If you don't fight when you encounter an opportunity, what's the difference between it and salted fish?

The body seemed to have drilled through the viscous mire, and after a strong feeling of suffocation, Song Ming gasped and stood in the world opposite the portal.

Upon entering this world, he suddenly found that his consciousness was connected to a wonderful space, and after several tests, he realized that it seemed to be the legendary portable space.

Maybe this is the legendary time-traveling benefit?

The sun in the sky can barely be seen, only a bright halo behind the gray clouds, the gray sky looks very low, which makes Song Ming feel very depressed, as an environmental engineering graduate, he instinctively resents the harsh environment around him.

The time should be around four or five o'clock, and it will soon be night—although the time is roughly synchronized, there is a slight deviation.

"This is another world?"

Song Ming took a deep breath, then coughed violently.

The air does breathe, but there is a faint smell of rust in the air, as if countless metal particles have been inhaled.

He continued to walk, researched a lot of information, and read many similar novels, and he knew that the most important thing now was to find a safe place to use as a temporary base and obtain enough information.

Suddenly, there was a fierce burst of gunfire from the front.

Song Ming immediately raised his vigilance, quietly leaned towards the building next to him, and then bumped into something - when he looked up, a pair of scarlet eyes stared straight at him!

Song Ming ran away!

Compared to monsters, humans are obviously much kinder!

The dry corpse immediately chased after him!

it!

How is it so fast!? It's not the same as the observation!

Song Ming, who was running wildly, kept squeezing his potential, his physical fitness was not very good, after a short sprint, he felt that his lungs were about to tear, his body was getting heavier and heavier, more and more painful, there was an indescribable feeling of suffocation, he found that his physical strength was consumed faster than usual, and there was a strange feeling of exhaustion.

Can't keep running!

You have to turn around, take out that monster, and join those people!

Song Ming pulled out the watermelon knife he had prepared in advance, and turned to face the "dry corpse" who had caught up.

After the corpse approached, he pounced directly!

"Want to kill me? It's not that easy! ”

Song Ming roared angrily, and the watermelon knife cut it directly!

"Boom!"

The strong shock almost made the watermelon knife get out of his hand, and the dry corpse crashed into Song Ming's arms at once, and a pair of shriveled hands suddenly stretched out and grabbed his neck directly!

"Ahh

Song Ming, who was frightened, frantically slashed it with a watermelon knife!

"Bang Bang Bang-"

But the watermelon knife slashed on the shriveled arm and made a crisp sound similar to metal, and there was nothing wrong with that dry corpse, but Song Ming's shocked hands were numb!

"Whew!!"

The hands of the dry corpse began to increase in strength, and Song Ming immediately had difficulty breathing and was on the verge of suffocation!

Die!

Song Ming, whose face was flushed, roared in his heart, dragging the dried corpse to fall down together and thrust it backhanded, the watermelon knife hit the head of the dried corpse with one end, and the other end hit the ground directly when it fell-poof, slicing its head open!

In an instant, the power of the dried corpse disappeared, and the red light in the eyes was gone.

Song Ming hurriedly ripped the dried corpse off his body, collapsed to the ground and scolded, "What the fuck is this!?" Zombie!? Resident Evil!? ”

Song Ming gasped sharply, and then saw that the dried corpse suddenly turned into dust and dispersed, leaving only a skeleton, he was stunned: "No! This can't be a zombie! I've never heard of zombies decomposing like this after they die! ”

As soon as he struggled to stand up, there was a sudden tearing pain in his body, followed by a violent cough, "poof", the pale Song Ming knelt on the ground, his palms were full of blood, and some red fine lines that spread rapidly appeared under his skin, and his eyes were full of despair: "What's going on?" Virus!? Gas masks are useless!? ”

His body grew weaker and weaker, and soon he collapsed to the ground completely, and his breath was constantly flattening, and like a mollusk, he lost the ability to maintain his body, like a slime......

He was now beginning to regret such a reckless crossing......

The fierce gunfire was constantly approaching, and there were many dried corpses surrounding him, and Song Ming, who fell to the ground, couldn't even move, because he had turned into a puddle of mud!

It's mud in the truest sense of the word.

At this moment, a person suddenly appeared next to Song Ming, she was just a look, and the dried corpses around her fell apart in an instant.

At first glance, she looks like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, but at second glance, it feels like she is twenty-seven or eighteen.

Her pretty face was expressionless, her eyes were as dull as a piece of stagnant water, and she was so lifeless, the moment she saw Song Ming, she suddenly underwent an incredible change.

"It was a chrono portal...... Are you an outsider? ”

The crisp voice was full of surprise, but Song Ming's consciousness had begun to blur, and he couldn't hear what she was saying at all.

Don't want to die......

I don't want to die yet!

The optic nerve began to dissolve, and Song Ming could no longer see her face clearly.

More than 80% of the muscles in his body have now dissolved, his bones are constantly decomposing and softening, blood is flowing outward from his facial features, and in a few seconds, he will completely turn into liquid.

I'm going to die......

Despair devoured Song Ming, and he knew that the traverser was not so easy to be!

"It's about to be decomposed by the nanomachine swarm......"

After the mysterious woman was silent for a moment, a small chip was wrapped around silver silk threads and buried in Song Ming's brain.

[The commander chip implantation has been completed, and the adaptability test is in progress...... Adaptability 99.99%...... Tested to pass...... The system is in the process of going live ......】

[Failure to go online, command failure, no signal feedback from the herald, unable to obtain sapper information......]

[The nano machine swarm began to merge, and now the body is beginning to reassemble.] 】

【...... in Building a Skeletal Model】

【Basic Bone Reorganization......】

【Muscle Fiber Reorganization......

【Nerve Fiber Connection......】

As soon as the cold voice in his mind finished speaking, a wave of more intense pain struck, and Song Ming's slime-like body actually expanded as quickly as a balloon, and soon returned to his human form.

At the same time, a projection suddenly appeared on Song Ming's retina.

[Body remodeling is complete, state evaluation is underway.] 】

[Full Enhancement (F) begins, and is expected to be completed in one hour.] 】

The intense pain has decreased a lot, but there is still a tingling feeling in the body, like many ants arching in it, but it can be endured.

A voice of despair with a hint of hope sounded in Song Ming's mind: "Guest, I can only help you get here...... Hope you can change this desperate world......"

Then, she suddenly disappeared as if no one had ever come.

Like Song Ming gasping for breath from a pool, he wanted to get up, but his body was very weak, the nanobots were constantly reorganizing and strengthening muscles, bones and nerves, and now those organs and tissues were completely unable to respond to the instructions of the brain.

A car came from a distance, crushed the dried corpses on the road, and then stopped next to Song Ming, and then a few people got down from inside.

That's great!

It's human!

There is salvation!

"Hah! There's a lone fugitive here!? What a rarity! If you catch it and sell it, you might be able to exchange it for food or weapons. ”

Song Ming's heart suddenly fell to the bottom - what was revealed in these words was not good news!

A person squatted down and flipped through Song Ming's clothes, and patted his cheek again: "The clothes are so new, the body is so clean, the cheeks are ruddy and elastic, and there is no malnutrition, it looks like he ran out of the shelter, but he can't find the identification code of the shelter, it's a little strange, can you tell where he came from?" ”

"Black wolf boss, we can't afford GF chips, how can we check ......"

Another person flicked Song Ming's body with a gun: "It's soft, the muscles seem to be dissolved, and there is no point in catching it back, maybe it will be decomposed by the nano machine group halfway, wasting resources." ”

"That's not necessarily, if he is more adaptable and merges benignly with the nano machine group, he may become a watchman or a purifier, which is worth more than a new human beauty!"

"Boss! Look what I found! ”

The mercenary with a shocked face opened Song Ming's backpack for the black wolf to see, and suddenly the black wolf also took a breath of cold air, his eyes were full of excitement: "He is most likely from a shelter that we don't know about!" ”

The black wolf glanced at the time and said, "It's almost night, find a safe place to camp for the night, if he can survive, interrogate the information, if he can't survive, it will be a waste of time." ”

A group of people immediately took action, tied Song Ming to the car, and felt the cold eyes fall on him, Song Ming was extremely angry in his heart: when he came to this world, he was chased and killed by an inexplicable dry corpse, and he almost became a slime just now, and now he fell into the hands of a group of traffickers of unknown origin.
