Chapter 61: The Scavengers
The night is the home of the undead creatures, and at the suggestion of Wang Qi, the two decided to stay where they were until dawn. But looking at Shao Xiaoyu www.biquge.info's shivering in the cold wind, Wang Qi still knew how to crawl into the room below and find a dusty curtain to wrap her in the cold wind.
There are still a lot of zombies wandering on the street downstairs, but maybe there was once the existence of the brain-eater and skeleton warrior in this small restaurant, and those zombies who were only in the early and middle stages of the gray spirit basically did not take the initiative to enter the hotel.
I closed my eyes a little and rested for a while, and when I woke up, it was already dark. Despite the preoccupation, both of them were very tired from the fierce battle of the night, and after confirming that they were safe for the time being, they could no longer control their sleepiness.
And what woke Wang Qi from his sleep was an inexplicable palpitation, which was an instinct, an instinctive fear when facing an invincible opponent.
Leaning down, he poked his head out of the edge of the half-collapsed roof and looked in the direction from which the feeling of oppression had come from. Extraordinary eyesight looks through the misty morning mist to the corner of the street. There, a figure that looked like a slender man, but was actually taller than a normal human, was slowly walking by.
Wang Qi's pupils contracted suddenly, could it be that thing?!
"What's wrong? Hey? What's that? ”
Just as Wang Qi cautiously retracted his head, Shao Xiaoyu's voice was still a little worried from the side. Wang Qi only felt that his hairs exploded violently, and he didn't care about it, and a pounce crushed the girl who had come to his side to the ground.
"What are you doing...... Uh-huh......"
Without waiting for Shao Xiaoyu to resist, Wang Qi covered her mouth tightly, and at this moment, he seemed to be able to feel a substantial gaze in the distance sweeping over where they were.
Time slipped by second by second, in fact, it was very short, but in the feeling of Wang Qi, a long time passed. Fortunately, this time the god of luck was still on his side, and after a while, the feeling of being targeted did not come, and even the oppressive feeling that made him feel palpitations before was gradually fading away.
With a long exhalation, Wang Qi, whose body had just relaxed, felt a tingling pain in his palm.
"Wow, what are you biting me for, let go, let go!"
With Shao Xiaoyu's strength, this bite is also due to Wang Qi's physical strength far beyond ordinary people, otherwise it is very likely that she will directly bite off a piece of meat.
"Are you a dog? Or do you want to switch to being a zombie? ”
Immediately after that, Wang Qi, who was pushed to the head, shook his left hand vigorously, and the two rows of clearly visible tooth marks at the tiger's mouth were faintly oozing blood.
"Humph! Deserved it, who made you pounce inexplicably! ”
Shao Xiaoyu, the initiator, did not apologize at all, and grimaced at him fiercely. It's just that there is still a blush on that pretty face, and her right hand unconsciously tightens the collar that was ripped open when she was knocked down by Wang Qi just now.
Wang Qi was stunned for a moment, and then realized that his actions just now were indeed a little inappropriate, but in such a time of crisis, who could care so much.
Besides, a little girl who is only fifteen or sixteen years old, can he still have any ill intentions against her? I have a girlfriend, how can I be so beastly as to think about a high school girl...... Despite the fact that this girl is good-looking, and the figure is ...... It seems that too, ahem, it's good......
Thinking that his right hand seemed to be pressed on something soft just now, Wang Qi couldn't help but blush, and tried to turn his attention to the tooth marks on his hand.
"Ahem, what was that?"
The strange atmosphere lasted for a while, but in the end, it was Shao Xiaoyu who broke the embarrassment on the scene. Wang Qi touched his nose and let out a sigh, he is the worst at dealing with such a situation, it would be good if the other party could take the initiative to speak.
"That's the 'Scavengers', a kind of monster we can't afford to mess with......"
"Scavengers? Picking up garbage?? ”
For this name, Shao Xiaoyu expressed great incomprehension, and did not understand why a garbage picker made Wang Qi so nervous.
"This isn't a ...... for picking up garbage."
Wang Qi scratched his head, this noun was directly translated from the lingua franca of the undead, and it really sounded strange.
"Speaking of which, I think I should explain to you the known hierarchy of undead creatures."
Wang Qi reached out and picked up a broken brick from the side, and then scratched it up on the floor between the two.
"As far as I know, this undead scourge was caused by the invasion of the undead in the face of our world. The dark clouds that have been hanging over our heads now are actually the 'necromantic qi' that seeps through the rift between the two dimensions. ”
"Under the shroud of these clouds, when a creature dies, the corpse will be invaded by these necromantic qi and transformed into an undead creature. And these zombies and skeletons resurrected from the newly dead corpses are collectively called gray spirit level, and most of them have no sanity, and will only hunt and kill living beings according to instinct. ”
"And when they have devoured enough fresh flesh, or when the necromantic aura in their bodies has accumulated to a certain limit, they will advance. Well, based on the information I've gotten now, I can only roughly distinguish the first four levels of undead creatures......"
"Gray Spirit Level, Soul Spirit Level, Soul Flame Level, Dark Energy Level. Each of these levels can also be subdivided into four sub-stages: elementary, middle, post, and peak. For example, most of the skeletons that were scattered by you before were in the late stage of the gray spirit, and the big skeleton warrior with a weapon was the strength of the mid-stage soul level...... Uh, is there anything you don't understand? ”
Seeing Shao Xiaoyu looking at himself with a dull expression, Wang Qi stopped a little strangely.
"Well, there are indeed things I don't understand."
Shao Xiaoyu nodded, and then asked with a strange expression,
"Where did you hear all this stuff? By the way, are you really just a college student? Or my brother's classmates? ”
"The college students who are fake are not your brother's classmates, just alumni."
Wang Qi shrugged his shoulders a little embarrassedly, "The source is confidential, but I can pack a ticket for authenticity." So, are you still listening? ”
"Ah, surely, tell me, what the hell is that scavenger?"
"It's a soul-flame-level undead creature that already has an independent mind. However, it is said that the formation conditions are very harsh, and I guess that this scavenger should not have evolved from our world itself, after all, the invasion of the undead natural disaster has just begun, and the evolution of the local undead creatures is generally not high......"
Speaking of which, Wang Qi had already remembered the two terrifyingly powerful high-level undead he had encountered outside Ximiao Village before, perhaps this scavenger was also an intruder from the rift in the plane that existed somewhere.
