Chapter 13: The Broken God
Gou Ke had expected that he would be indispensable to the pain of flesh and skin, but he didn't expect that the madman with the head of Moxi to do things so ruthlessly, he would be heavy without saying a word, and he didn't ask a second sentence after hearing the word "no". Originally, I was still a little sorry for Zhao Yang's death, but now my hand is painful and I can't take care of it. Now it's just a pity that Ma Fuchun hurt people a lot, but he himself got a happy death.
The basement, which had been scrupulously tidy, is now as full of rust and car paint as the buildings on the ground, the walls are decorated with that dark-style graffiti and rusted iron, and the ceiling lights are shrouded in barbed irregular wires, casting dappled light and shadow that makes the whole space look eerie.
The part near the entrance is filled with all sorts of rusty iron torture instruments full of spikes and circular saws, all of which are stained with blackened blood, and in the middle there are two pots of scarlet charcoal, in which various oddly shaped soldering irons are placed.
The other side is divided into six cages of less than one square meter and a corridor in the middle by an iron fence. The smell of rust permeated the air throughout the dungeon, along with a strong rancid stench and gore. A low, terrifying roar could be heard from nowhere, interspersed with the sound of flesh tearing and bone chewing.
After Gou Cao was sent to the door of the dungeon, his escort departed, and he was received by a lean man in an iron mask, who let out a short, low laugh when he saw him, and said to himself: "Another one who has been chopped off, I'll give you some measures to stop the bleeding and disinfect." After speaking, he pinched Gou Ke's wound that was chopped open by the axe, and the pain was so painful that Gou Ke only inhaled cool air, but because his mouth was stuck with tape, he could only struggle to make a whining sound.
After being tied to the torture chair, Gou Cao understood what the man in the iron mask meant by the hemostatic disinfection measures, the man poured alcohol on the wound, and then directly used a red-hot curved soldering iron to scorch the broken wound on Gou Cao's wrist and it was over. The simple and rough handling made Gou Cao faint directly from the pain.
When he woke up, he found himself in one of the iron cages, leaning against the railing because the space was too small to lie flat. The man in the iron mask is gone. However, there was an extra bald head in the cage next door with only one hand and only a pair of shorts left on his body, staring straight at Gou Cao.
If you look closely, you can see that the bald head originally had a moxican head on his head, but now it has been cut off, and because of the rough cutting method, it has left a narrow black mark in the middle of the bald head. There are also some car spray paint marks on the body, which should be the original boss who has drawn various patterns with car spray paint all over his body, but he has been washed but not cleaned, and the mottled look is very funny.
As soon as the bald head woke up when he saw Gou Cao, he directly spitted over: "Super wear-resistant, it's just that you ruined my good deeds and hurt me like this, right?!" ”
Gou Cao lost too much blood and is now a little weak, but the extreme pain makes Gou Cao feel very irritable now, and he doesn't care about the etiquette and upbringing he usually develops, so he spits back directly: "You are sick, I just woke up and you give me a mouthful of saliva, how do I know who you are?!" ”
The bald head spat again: "I'm the captain of the 113 squad of corpse chasers, you forgot that day when you were chased all over the world by me?!" ”
Gou Cao's momentum did not lose his bald head at all, and he replied with a mouthful of spit: "Have you forgotten who beat you home to find your mother?" Aren't you a fish, and your memory is only seven seconds?! ”
……
Then what followed was the exchange of saliva and swear words between two people who were too weak to fight. Until they were exhausted and had to stop spraying, no one came out to stop them.
Grim leaned wearily against the iron railing, wiping the spit off his face. Maybe it was because the anger in his heart was vented through swear words and saliva, and he unexpectedly felt better after the scolding just now.
In the process of scolding, Gou Cao was also able to get some information about the current situation from the bald mouth.
The corpse chasers who wandered the northeastern part of Northern City and the southwestern part of Huangbei Province originally belonged to a branch of the Sect of the Broken God Sect. The Cult of the Broken God believes that the world was originally a huge mechanical god, and later for various reasons, the main body of the mechanical god collapsed, and the broken remains were scattered all over the universe, forming various celestial bodies in the universe, and the various man-made objects that humans could make and use were simple and crude imitations of the structure of the remains of the mechanical god.
The history of the Cult of the Broken God can be traced back to the age of the steam engine, when an Englishman suddenly felt a revelation from the remnant will of the Broken God while observing the operation of the steam engine, and founded the Cult of the Broken God in 1780. Its followers regard all kinds of machines as sacred objects, and wear various decorations related to mechanical devices on their bodies, in the hope that they will receive divine revelation from the broken god.
Cultists of the Broken God believe that the Broken God will one day rebuild his body, and that the earth and everything on it will be a part of his body. In preparation for this day, Broken God followers have traveled all over the globe and are secretly carrying out various conspiracies.
It wasn't until the invention of the electronic computer that the Shattered God Cult formed two sects, the Sect of the Mechanical God and the Cult of Cybergod.
The Cult of the Mechanics still believes only in traditional machines, seeing rust and spikes as a medium for the Broken God to descend and communicate with its followers; The Cybergod Sect, on the other hand, believes in electronic technology and is obsessed with attaching various mechanical devices to itself, believing that only by abandoning the physical body and electronizing itself can humans return to the Broken God.
After the end of the world, without the official suppression, the believers of the mechanical gods changed their original low-key and non-interference style of doing things, and began to appear in the eyes of the world openly, rapidly increasing their own strength.
After occupying a weapons graveyard and obtaining a large amount of ammunition, the bald head absorbed many survivors who were desperate in the apocalypse, and became the largest force in the area after the sect priest - that is, the leader who cut off one of Gou's hands, mastered the method of training and manipulating zombies, and began to call himself a corpse chaser, wantonly raiding the survivor strongholds in this area who were unwilling to join.
The bald head was also a team leader of the corpse chasers before he met Gou Cao, and during a patrol a few weeks ago, he found Bai Yutian's ten-person survivor team from a distance who went out to collect supplies, and he took a fancy to Bai Yutian at a glance, so he asked his younger brother to help him get it.
After that, it was the same as Gou Cao knew, the bald little brother surrounded the ten-person team with zombies, and the team sealed all the doors and windows of a two-story building after sacrificing seven people, and then hid on the roof of the building, and then Gou Cao came and rescued them.
The bald little brother saw that Gou Ke had a chariot, and if he couldn't beat it, he could only ask the bald head to go out in person, but the people didn't catch it, but more than a dozen of his men died.
After all, corpse chasers are not ordinary gangs, they have a certain degree of organization and discipline, and they are not allowed to use force casually for personal gain, and the circumstances of causing personnel damage are even more serious. The bald team was punished, and the bald man himself was put in a dungeon with his hands chopped off, and being put in a dungeon meant that he would eventually be executed.
However, while battling Gou, the Bald Man discovered that the Rover healed itself when it was damaged. After reporting to the priest, the priest believed that the wanderer was alive and the product of the miracle of the broken god, and that the unbeliever in the car, Bai Yutian, was blaspheming the miracle, but he couldn't let the miracle be damaged, so he could only ask Gou to open the car door and let Bai Yutian come out.
Of course, Gou Cao couldn't tell the truth of the matter, but from the bald mouth, Gou Cao also confirmed that his life was worry-free.
