Chapter 38: Hope

Chapter XXXVIII

It was only eighteen or nineteen years old, with long hair scattered, half of his body wrapped in the thin layer of pale blue ice, and his black pupils were also plated with a layer of blue.

She sat in the ice in the center of the hall, as if it was about to melt into the ice, as beautiful as the person in the painting.

Hearing the footsteps, she raised her head and looked at Lin Mo and smiled softly.

This is definitely an awakened person.

But Lin Mo didn't say anything, just nodded and smiled.

This house is about 100 square meters, and it can be seen that the conditions of this house are also well-off.

But at the moment, there were more than the three of them in the house.

Next to the blue-eyed girl, there was a middle-aged woman with a caring face, and in the inner room, there were also voices.

Behind Lin Mo, the middle-aged man looked at the girl in the blue ice and said with a smile: "This is my daughter, she saved everyone." ”

Lin Mo couldn't help but look at the girl again.

At this time, the girl's head slowly lowered again, and her long eyelashes drooped slightly, covering her blue eyes.

She seems to be ...... Tired?

Lin Mo shook his head, he had probably guessed the relationship between several people: "It's really ...... Terrific. ”

Behind him, the middle-aged man laughed.

The middle-aged woman looked at Lin Mo covered in blood, and couldn't help but say, "Old Mu, don't stand stupidly and brag about our daughter, hurry up and let him go into the house to rest and rest - this child is like this." ”

Lin Mo shook his head: "No need, I'm ...... Sit down here. ”

The woman kindly said, "It's warmer inside, and besides, change your clothes, you see this blood, it's in danger, right?"

"It's okay, it's safe to get here, the monster's vines don't dare to extend in."

In this regard, Lin Mo smiled and nodded, and he followed the two people into the room inside.

As the woman had said, the back room, though covered in blue ice, was warmer than the hall where the maiden sit.

And there are really a lot of people here, there are two bedrooms in total, there are twelve or thirteen people in total, and there is even a young mother with a baby.

More than a dozen people hid in a room, which seemed a little crowded and smelly.

Lin Mo declined the middle-aged couple's kindness to provide him with clothes, and asked instead, "When did you hide here?" ”

"Those...... "At that time, a monster appeared on the lower floors, and we didn't dare to go down, and then the monster was 'eaten' by the things that spread from the outside, and spread upstairs, and at that time, the smoke suddenly froze things, and froze to death a few of those vines, and this became a safe zone, and we took in the people who were still alive on the upper floors." ”

"Those vines...... When did it start growing? ”

"It's only the first two days - it's been too chaotic to tell the exact time."

Lin Mo nodded and said, "What about those fogs?" ”

"It was there at the beginning, and then it got stronger and stronger, and the world is the same color."

"You haven't been out?" Lin Mo looked at half of the room, they were also looking at Lin Mo, but no one spoke.

Only the middle-aged man responded to his words: "No, if you dare to go out, you will die if you go out." ”

Lin Mo shook his head: "If you don't go out, what are you eating?" ”

In this regard, the middle-aged man is much more optimistic: "The things of our family can at least support a small half a month, and for such a long time, the army should also come." ”

"The army?" Lin Mo couldn't help frowning, "Where is the army to save people?" ”

He hesitated slightly, still intending to shatter the unrealistic illusions of this group of people: "Moreover, this is a global catastrophe at all. ”

The middle-aged man said, "I know that these things were broadcast every day when there was still a signal on TV, but there were indeed troops, and we kept in touch with them, and they could arrive at us next week at the latest." ”

Lin Mo was really taken aback this time, in this environment, how could there really be a regular army running around the city, you know, he came in with the troops of the Holy Judgment Society before, and tens of thousands of people said that it was gone.

If there really is an army, and even keeps in touch with them all the time, how did they survive in this new capital city full of scarlet vines?

Lin Mo looked at the other party's determined expression and couldn't help but look back in the direction of the hall.

Don't...... Is there an awakened man in the army?

Lin Mo shook his head and didn't say anything more, if there was really an army in this new capital, then it would undoubtedly be good news for him, then he might be able to follow the army out of the city.

And it seems that it is quite safe here.

The middle-aged man saw the heartbeat in Lin Mo's eyes: "Little brother, I see that you are also alone, why don't you come with us first, with my daughter here, at least it is safe here, and when the army really comes, let's go out of the city together." ”

Lin Mo didn't refuse, and nodded in agreement.

The couple was really kind-hearted, and Lin Mo insisted on not changing his clothes, so he brought him some biscuits and other food.

Lin Mo was indeed hungry, his body recovered quickly, the premise was that there was enough nutrition as a supplement, not to mention, he had also consumed a lot of physical strength just now.

However, in order to avoid attracting hatred, Lin Mo didn't let go of eating like he did when he first saw Yuan Hongguo this time, he only ordered it on a first-serve basis, and the food in the end was rare, and it was by no means easily squandered.

The people in this room were usually neighbors, acquaintances, but at the moment they were all unusually silent, and a dozen people, except for the couple, almost all of them had not very good faces, and seemed worried about the prospects.

And Lin Mo could see that the couple was really proud and happy that their daughter could save so many people.

Lin Mo sat in the slightly crowded room for a while before standing up and walking to the hall.

Truth be told, he's still curious about a truly awakened person.

What does a benign variant that is produced with a small probability look like?

Leaving the crowded back room and coming to the hall, the temperature immediately plummeted, but Lin Mo felt refreshed.

Xinjing's power supply system has long been paralyzed, and outside the window is a thick fog.

The city was far less devastated than the Ice City, and the streets and buildings were largely intact, presumably due to the early and strong appearance of the mutated life of the Crimson Vines.

At this moment, there was only a faint blue light in the hall, and everything reflected was like a dream.

And the girl with blue eyes sat in the center of this blue dream.

With her long hair scattered, she seemed to hear the footsteps, half-turned her head, looked at Lin Mo, and showed a tired smile.
