Chapter 8: Out of the City
Creekside.
A beautiful woman was walking slowly by the river in a wheelchair, and on the wheelchair sat a middle-aged man with eagle-sharp eyes, several cross scars on the left side of his face, and a scar on the right side of his face, which looked a little oozing. He wore a dark brown long-sleeved uniform, but both sleeves were empty, apparently missing both arms. Not only that, but the parts of his legs below the knee were amputated, and his bare skin was covered with all kinds of scars, which immediately made people wonder what kind of terrifying experience this man had......
Behind them, a 5- or 6-year-old boy walked quietly behind them.
The beautiful woman sighed: "Is there really no other way?" Shuo'er is so small, so he has to ...... Is...... That's a force you can't even withstand......"
"Alas...... Shuo'er is my son, and if there is any other way, I can't bear to expose him to such great danger at such a young age...... But, this is also forced to be helpless! Sooner or later, they will find out that I am alive...... Even if I've become like this, they still won't let me go......" The middle-aged man's voice was a little low, and his tone was full of unwillingness.
"But......" The beautiful woman wanted to say something, but when the words came to her lips, she couldn't say anything. She also understands the current situation, her husband has become a half-crippled person, and she has no power, if she is found by those people again, whether it is the two of them or the children behind her, it is impossible to be spared......
"Mom...... I can do it! I will definitely become strong and protect you and Daddy! The little boy behind him, perhaps sensing his mother's emotional changes, ran up to her, pulled her sleeve, and said seriously: "I must become as good as my father used to be!" ”
"Shuo'er......" The beautiful woman hugged the little boy and choked up: "My Shuo'er ......"
At this moment, a long and short siren suddenly sounded from the distant town location.
"Oops! They're coming! Qing'er, you take Shuo'er and leave! The middle-aged man turned back and shouted at the beautiful woman.
"Nope! Let's go together! The beautiful woman was about to leave with the little boy in one hand and a wheelchair in the other, when suddenly a loud bang exploded from the town, and a strong wave directly lifted the three of them into the small river next to them...... The beautiful woman was thrashing in the water, dragging the little boy with one hand, and trying to grab her husband with the other: "Shuo'er! Hold mom tight! ”
"Mom!"
The river was so fast that the little boy was swept into the rapids by the waves of the explosion. Before he lost consciousness, he saw one huge monster after another appear on the bank of the river, led by a one-horned demonic monster, he was at least five or six meters tall, his dark arms were blood-red meridians, the strange lines looked like unknown runes, it reached out and scooped up its parents from the river, and a hideous smile appeared on its face-
"I've finally found you!" The one-horned demon opened his bloody jaws and threw the beautiful woman into his mouth—
"No!"
…………
…………
"Ahhh No! Zhang Shuo woke up from his fright, his body was completely soaked with cold sweat.
Suddenly—
A black shadow approached Zhang Shuo, Zhang Shuo subconsciously raised his left arm, and a sixty-centimeter-long saber popped out from the hunter's glove, and the tip of the knife pointed directly at the throat of the black shadow......
"Ahh The dark shadow let out an exclamation, it was a woman's voice.
Only then did Zhang Shuo realize that the target of the saber was his reward target this time - Tang Rou. If the saber was sent a little further, it would immediately stab Tang Rou's throat.
Zhang Shuo hurriedly put the saber back, relieved his breath, and said, "I'm sorry." ”
Tang Rou originally saw Zhang Shuo wake up and was about to see his situation, who knew that when she encountered such a scene, her legs were a little weak after being shocked, and she hurriedly held on to the wall of the rooftop.
After Zhang Shuo woke up, he quickly checked the time displayed on the hunter's glove, 05:31.
Judging from the current sky, there will be 1 hour at most, and the sky will be bright, and then both the infected and the mutant beasts will become active.
The only thing to be thankful for is that there is no trace of the lv5 giant shadow leopard nearby.
Recalling a series of things that happened last night, Zhang Shuo didn't expect to be forced to open the third stage of genetic ability, but in the face of the "Night Hunter Killer" Giant Shadow Leopard, if he didn't open the third stage of genetic ability, he was afraid that he would end up with the same fate as Luo Fei and Tang Yiming!
Zhang Shuo stood on the edge of the rooftop, once again used his "night vision" ability, his eyes turned into cat's eye blood, observing the situation in the street, after a while, he turned back to Tang Rou and said, "Let's go, while the sky is still dark, let's find a way to get out of the city." ”
Tang Rou nodded.
"Be prepared." Zhang Shuo said to Tang Rou, then took out a grenade from his backpack and threw it towards the street on the right with all his strength.
"Boom-"
With a bang, the grenade exploded! It's especially noticeable in this quiet night! Soon, a series of humanoid black figures on the street were running wildly in the direction of the explosion, it was a Level 3 infected person hidden in the surrounding buildings, and they were extremely sensitive to smells and sounds.
"Let's go!" Zhang Shuo picked up Tang Rou and jumped off the roof.
Zhang Shuo's second stage of genetic ability was much weaker than the third stage, whether it was visual ability, physical fitness, jumping ability, etc., it was several grades worse, so he couldn't complete the move of jumping from downstairs to the roof of the sixth-story building in a few leaps like last night, only to keep jumping down, and then taking advantage of the time when the surrounding mutant beasts and infected people were attracted to the other end of the street by the sound of explosions, he returned to the road that Tang Yiming took him before and entered the area of the sewer.
All the way down the sewer back to the location of Nanjiekou, Zhang Shuo took out a level 4 odor masking agent to spray himself and Tang Rou, and the two climbed out of the sewer one after another, just like yesterday, there are still many headhunters wandering here.
The two took advantage of the effect of the smell masking agent to evade the headhunters wandering on the street, and ran all the way to the location of Zhang Shuo's pickup truck. Although the scent masking agent could make the low-level mutant beasts ignore the existence of the two, it was able to attract the attention of those infected, and soon, many surrounding buildings ran out of Level 3 infected people one after another.
"Sit tight!"
As soon as Zhang Shuo's voice fell, he directly knocked over the plants on the green belt, and knocked out of the sidewalk flower platform, but did not rush to the road, but directly hit the accelerator on the green belt and soared. It turned out that he had planned to drive through the green belt above the sidewalk from the beginning, because there were half-meter-high platforms for pedestrians to rest on both sides of the green belt, and these platforms also happened to block the infected person from entering the green belt, and Zhang Shuo drove from the street into the green belt, and rushed out from the flower platform just enough to fly over the platform more than half a meter high.
After racing in the green belt for more than 20 minutes, when he reached the end of the front, Zhang Shuo's car turned and crashed directly into a row of shops above. Since there is a row of shops at the south entrance, storefronts like this are basically glass doors, which is also convenient for Zhang Shuo's destruction.
After crashing out of the storefront all the way, Zhang Shuo was purely a needle, as long as there was a road, he would rush wherever he went. Along the way, he knocked a lot of infected people, and two infected people, dragging the back of the pickup truck, Zhang Shuo stuck his left hand out of the window, and a muzzle popped out of the hunter's glove, firing several shots in succession, blowing the head of an infected person!
Zhang Shuo drove the pickup truck out of the green belt, and the strong inertia bounced the remaining infected person in the back compartment away, and then, he took out the mechanical disc from his backpack and threw it out of the window-
Led away the infected, Zhang Shuo drove a pickup truck all the way away from the abandoned city of K191.
"Where are we going?" Tang Rou asked.
"Shine City."
Zhang Shuo glanced at Tang Rou, but saw that she was still calm, as if no matter what the final destination was, it would not cause her reaction.
