Season 9 - The Last Rings

Williamsburg, USA, is located in the North Temperate Zone. It is a small town with four distinct seasons, abundant rain and a pleasant climate.

Its average summer temperature is 23 degrees Celsius, which means that it is not very hot when summer comes.

On July 4, 2017, the end of the world broke out for two years and three months.

Old John finally got his wish and built a tavern in the woods outside Williamsburg in the woods. Julia, the girl, was invited to her home, in the abandoned residential area of Williamsburg.

Julia is almost forty years old this year, but she is still in shape because of long-term exercise.

When she entered the courtyard, she pursed her lips and said with some unhappiness:

"Old John! I really don't understand why you'd move to the city!

Don't you know that those zombies love to gather in the city? If you're surrounded by zombies, there's nowhere to run!

You are an old immortal, and if you die, you will die! I feel sorry for my little angel Caterina and that silly boy Jax!

If you really want to die here, give me two children!" For the sake of your ability to take care of my business before the end of the world, I will help you take care of them. ”

Old John circled around Julia, like a pug wagging its tail at its master, and Julia frowned at it.

"Haha! My dear Julia! When you get inside, you will repent to God, want to take back what you just said, and beg to let you stay and live here! ”

Julia shook her head unconvinced and said, "You're really crazy! I'm crazy to come with you! ”

Although she said this, she still followed Old John into the seemingly inconspicuous house in front of her with some curiosity, and she wanted to see what treasures were in this house that could make Old John so proud.

Entering the room, it was pitch black inside, because the windows of the house were all blocked by sealed steel plates, so the sunlight could not enter.

Julia muttered in her heart, didn't old John have a lustful heart and get her here to rob her?

Probably not! Julia felt that she still knew the old man very well, and he should not have the guts.

Old John closed the door, and the room was completely dark, and just as Julia became nervous and was about to open her mouth to question, Old John suddenly whistled.

Little Jax, who was hiding in the corner of the room, quickly pressed the switch, and the room lit up! The dazzling lights made Julia stunned for a moment.

It was a large living room, and in the middle of the living room was a square table, which was filled with all kinds of delicious dishes, as well as several bottles of valuable red wine.

At the table, little Caterina looked at this side with a fork on her face, and laughed out loud when she found that Julia was really as shocked as old John said.

"Julia! You're finally here! It's really suffocating me these days!

Spending time in a room with two men every day I feel like I'm going crazy!

Old John just knew to drink every day and then hide in his room and watch some movies that were said to be only for adults! Hmph, I know what he's looking at, isn't it just men and women fighting in bed without clothes?

And little Jax, who has recently taken up a handstand! You know, boys are always like that! Muscular and simple-minded, it's really boring and annoying! ”

Listening to Katerina's words, Old John's face turned red directly, and he didn't know what to say.

Julia quickly stepped forward, walked to the table and pulled out a chair and sat down, then took Caterina into her arms and kissed her twice, and then looked at Old John with bright eyes, and said in a trembling voice:

"Oh God! I'm not dreaming! What is this place? The whole city is out of power, why is there electricity in this house?

Also, what's on the table? Buffalo spicy chicken wings? Grilled steak? Pasta? Fried egg! Oh my God, what is this? Chocolate-flavored ice cream? And what brand of red wine is this, I seem to have seen it in an advertisement before the end of the world, and it costs a few hundred dollars a bottle, right? What is this?

You're a god, old man, where did you get these things? ”

John listened to Julia not pay attention to what Caterina said, but asked about the food on the table, and immediately regained his aura, and at the same time straightened his back.

He walked over and sat down next to Julia, then told the whole story of what had happened to Benita, and also showed Julia around the pantry and kitchen bathroom.

"It's really good here, because there are refrigeration and freezing equipment, and the food is stored a lot, enough to eat for several years.

There is a vegetable patch behind the house, and I have planted a lot of things, and in the autumn there will be a harvest. When the time comes, they will be harvested and stored, and they will be eaten for a long time.

Because the water and electricity are separated, the large tub in the bathroom can be filled with warm water, and the little ones have already learned to swim in it.

The most important thing is that it's safe, the courtyard walls are very strong, and there is an electrical grid on it. The room is even more solid! The girl named Benita told me that even missiles couldn't blow it up, and that it was made of special materials.

So I think so I think"

Old John thought about it for a long time, but finally he was too embarrassed to speak.

Caterina was held in Julia's arms, gently stroked Julia's cheek with her little hand and said, "Old John wants Julia to move out of the village and live with us!" There's a lot of good food to eat, and there's Caterina to play with Julia! Of course, Julia can also play with Katarina! ”

Julia was a little excited at this time, her face was red, and she kissed Catalina on the face again, and then looked at Old John and said:

"Alright! Old John! You're a rich man now, you old fellow!

Hey, spineless I've been completely conquered by your entire basement food!

Hurry up, you go back with me now, and secretly move all my most important things here, and you must be secret, so that no one else can find out! ”

Old John looked at Julia in a daze, and said in disbelief: "Would you like to come and live with us?" ”

Julia pursed her lips and said, "I won't give up these food and wine unless I'm crazy!" But if you want to climb into my bed, it seems like you're going to have to put some effort, after all, I just don't hate you now! Oh no, I kind of like the food and wine! But it's not love!

Alright, let's hurry back and move things! I don't want to leave the two little ones at home, it's too dangerous! ”

After saying that, Julia made a gesture to open the door.

Then he hurried back to sit at the table in the living room.

"Nope! I think we'd better eat the food on the table first! It's still early anyway! Old John, why are you still stunned? Didn't you invite me here to let me enjoy a meal with your family? ”

John didn't react until this time, and was pleasantly surprised, he didn't expect Julia to really want to stay, so wouldn't there be an extra hostess in this house in the future?

At this moment, Jax, who had been playing by himself, ran out of the room, still holding a small American flag in his hand.

Old John smiled sweetly and said to Julia: "Hehe, I told Jax in the morning that today is the 4th of July, which is Independence Day. So he didn't know where to find a flag, and he had been playing all morning! ”

Julia put the whole omelette in her mouth and praised, "Your craftsmanship is not bad!" It's a little bit worse than me! Is it Independence Day? What a good day! That's right! Although there were no neighbors to visit, I thought we would have to decorate our house at night! Independence Day is supposed to give the house a new look, isn't it? ”

Old John was delighted to hear that Julia had taken on the role of the mistress of the house.

Julia fed Caterina with food while eating, and at the same time beckoned Jax to eat quickly, so that she really looked like a hostess, and she only felt warm in the eyes of old John.

When she was full of wine and food, Julia was a little supportive, she sat on the chair and touched her stomach, frowned and said, "Hey! It's been a long time since I've eaten such a hearty meal. John, you are lucky to have such an amazing house in the last days!

You said that the woman named Benita asked her to take care of the power supply in her room, why on earth? What kind of secrets are hidden in this house? ”

Old John had inspected every corner of the house these days and found nothing out of the ordinary, so he naturally couldn't answer Julia's questions.

Julia finally shook her head indifferently and said, "Whatever!" Anyway, this house will be ours in the future! ”

After saying that, she went to the table and picked up a piece of grilled steak, then slowly put it in her mouth and chewed it vigorously

In the forest of the Xiaoxing'an Mountains on the northeastern border of China, the temporary camp of Qin An and his party was set up here, and they walked for half a month after leaving the Divine Tree City, and they still did not leave China. It is necessary to continue to walk more than 400 kilometers north before entering the territory of Northern Russia.

The Beicang Dark Road was originally quite smooth and did not take a long time to walk, but after killing Noshak, a large number of zombies gathered in Outer Mongolia spread out in all directions, making the road more and more difficult to walk, and it was common to encounter several waves of corpses every day.

Although it was difficult to travel and took a lot of time, Qin An's strength during this period of time was also improved by leaps and bounds, and the degree of integration with the Sword God Body was about to reach thirty percent, and he was about to enter the fourth-level realm of the Sword God Mutation Double Body.

Generally, when encountering hundreds of zombies, he can kill them all in a few minutes by turning on the sword to break the eight desolations ability and surround the zombie group, and truly enter the state of fighting monsters and upgrading.

Such a scene usually makes a group of people around him staggering, and even a master like Gong Xue thinks that even if he makes a move, it is impossible to kill many zombies as quickly as Qin An.
