Chapter 35: Survivors of the Mutation
The opportunity to replenish fresh water was in vain, and Shen Cong could only choose to continue to hurry, striving to reach Chaohu City as soon as possible.
This night, the King Kong camped in a place called Baimu Village, which is a natural village under the jurisdiction of Yinping Town, Chaohu City, and has been out of the low mountain area, basically a few kilometers further to Yinping Town, and Yinping Town and Chaohu City are only separated by a Yuxi River.
In other words, Chaohu City is in sight.
There is no shelter from the storm around the mountain, and Baimu Village has basically been razed to the ground, and there is no trace of ruins. As soon as the wind blew, a layer of mist-like flying sand was lifted on the yellow sandy ground, covering up the wheel marks left behind by the King Kong.
Taking advantage of the fact that the sky was not completely dark, Shen Cong was going to check the air pressure of 22 special tires.
Running on the gravel ground before, the wear is more serious, if it is not for active protection, I don't know how many tires will have to burst. Now it's on softer sand and gravel, and the tire pressure has to be modified. This job is relatively simple, and the inflator pump on board has the function of automatically setting the tire pressure, which can be completed at your fingertips.
22 tires, one 2 minutes, takes more than forty minutes.
Shen Cong also stood up from time to time and patrolled around, and by the time he finished tossing all this, it was already completely dark.
On the last inspection, no danger was detected, so Shen Cong carried the inflator pump and prepared to return to the car. But before he got close to the car door, there was a sense of crisis in his heart, and the danger came from his feet.
The yellow sand layer shook, and a mutated monster similar to a burrowing insect suddenly rushed out and rushed towards Shen Cong.
The huge impact force made Shen Cong, who couldn't avoid it, directly fall to the head, and the inflator pump in his hand rolled aside. Shen Cong, who fell to the ground, reacted in an instant, pulled out the fanged dagger on his waist with his backhand, injected the activity, and subconsciously blocked forward.
Poof!
One of the mutant monster's forelimbs was chopped off by a fanged dagger, but the entire body still hit Shen Cong again. The mouthparts bite directly into the arm of the Optimus Prime 1.0 Reactive Warframe.
Click.
The reactive armor is not a simple steel plate, and the mutant monster can't bite at all.
Taking advantage of this gap, Shen Cong added another fanged dagger, which hit the head of the mutant monster, and the pale green liquid suddenly sprayed out, splashing Shen Cong's body. In just a few seconds of shock, the mutant monster that was still violently charging just now died completely with this blow.
Ordinary mutant monsters can no longer pose much threat to Shen Cong, who is protected by Optimus Prime 1.0 active armor.
Of course, it's okay to be startled.
"Whew." Shen Cong wiped the pale green liquid from the active armor with his hand, which should be the blood of the mutant monster.
Got up and rubbed his chest, the impact of this monster is really not small, if it weren't for the protection of his active armor, his physical fitness would have improved many times, and his ribs would have been broken at about this moment.
Eyes shifted to the dead mutant monster.
"It's a digging worm, it looks alike."
There are slight differences between this monster and the digging worm, but it can be seen that they are all mutant signs based on cockroaches, and the active core is also a sickle-shaped chelicerae next to the mouthparts.
Picking up the inflator pump and dragging the digging worm, Shen Cong prepared to get into the car.
But one after another, there was a situation at this moment, and the hideous cat that was chained to the other side began to scream sharply. This cry is very different from the usual roar of a hideous cat. Shen Cong frowned, holding a fanged dagger in his left hand, took out an active pistol in his right hand, and walked around with the King Kong.
Suddenly, the hairs stood on end.
I saw that in the night, under the dim light of the outer lights of the King Kong, a man who was not covered was wringing off the bone spurs of the hideous cat with his hands. The hideous cat was tethered and could not fight back, so it could only let this person twist its bone spurs and let out a whoosa-woo-wow scream.
"Stop!"
Shen Cong didn't have time to think, he actually met someone, and shouted coldly.
This person looked like a woman, her clothes hung like strips of cloth, and her bare parts were covered with dirt and black, more like a wild man.
Seeing a living person, a survivor, Shen Cong should have been happy.
But he was very nervous now, because he didn't know how to get in touch with the survivor, and second, the survivor's behavior was too strange. Seeing a modern chariot like the King Kong, he didn't come to greet him, the master, but instead went to snatch the meat raised by Shen Cong.
This is unforgivable, in Shen Cong's three views, anything that robs him is to murder himself.
He will not be soft on those who murder him.
This sentence of "stop" was already the first time he had encountered a survivor, and he restrained himself very much: "Stop, give me a distance of fifty meters back, otherwise, I will shoot!" ”
The survivor woman, hearing Shen Cong's cold drink, turned her head suddenly, what kind of face was it - it was like someone had been slashed, from the left eye to the right cheek was an ugly scar, the left eye eyeball burst out, and the most terrifying thing was her mouth, four fangs broke her lips.
In an instant, Shen Cong was reminded of the orcs in "Warcraft".
There can't be an orc in the movie in this world, this is a survivor, a mutated survivor.
"Ahhhh The survivor woman, with her bursting eyes, glared at Shen Cong, and let out an abnormal roar from her mouth, as if threatening Shen Cong not to approach, and then kept her hands and continued to twist the bone spurs of the hideous cat.
Bang!
Gunshots.
Shen Cong pulled the trigger without hesitation, and the expression on his face was very cold...... Instead of hitting the survivor woman, the bullet grazed her hand and hit the ruins of a wall in the distance.
This shot was the first shot he fired in the last days, but it was against a survivor.
Hearing the gunshots, the survivor woman instinctively held her head with both hands, squatted on the ground, and screamed "ahhhh After a few piercing screams, he suddenly turned his head and spit out a few hoarse words to Shen Cong with difficulty and awkwardness: "No...... Want...... Kill...... I ......"
The other party still has a certain amount of sanity, and he has not become murderous and unintelligent like an ordinary mutant monster.
Shen Cong narrowed his eyes, he didn't know what to do with this survivor woman, but one thing, he was sure of - the hideous cat was the meat he raised, and no one was allowed to touch it.
"Cat, it's mine, don't move!" Shen Cong was still pointing a pistol at the other party, trying to say slowly in a sentence that was easier to understand, "You, step back fifty meters!" ”
"Eat...... Hungry ......," the survivor woman said, her expression twisted, with difficulty.
Every word she uttered, it seemed to drive her crazy, as if reason and chaos were struggling violently.
"Fifty meters back!" Shen Cong was unmoved.
"Hungry ......" The survivor woman suddenly stood up and roared at Shen Cong, "Ahhhh ”
Bang!
Another gunshot rang out, and the bullet grazed the hair of the survivor woman, striking the walls of the distant ruins, sending up a cloud of smoke and dust. Shen Cong's marksmanship is very good, mainly because he has a calm heart. Even if the situation was weird at this time, he could suppress the tension in his heart and hold the butt of the gun steadily.
"Ahhhh
The survivor woman, again crouching on the ground with her head in her hands, screamed wildly.
Shen Cong continued to drink coldly: "Fifty meters back!" ”
The survivor woman, panting, looked at the hideous cat, and then at Shen Cong, and retreated unwillingly. retreated to a distance of about ten meters, and refused to leave, just staring at Shen Cong.
Shen Cong untied the chain of the hideous cat and carried the hideous cat into the King Kong.
After entering, he used the periscope to observe the outside, and sure enough, the survivor woman rushed over again, roaring around the King Kong.
A minute later.
Shen Cong opened the side skylight and threw out a large piece of tumor pork chop that was about to rot, a bottle of mineral water, a freshly hunted digging worm, and a set of sportswear.
Then, the King Kong ignited and set off at night for the first time. Shen Cong sat in the driver's seat, kept looking through the inverted mirror, looking at the survivor woman who was burying her head in gnawing on the tumor pig, the survivor woman just simply looked up at the King Kong in the distance, and continued to bury her head in eating raw meat.
After a while, they were drowned in the vast night.
Shen Cong, who was driving, was expressionless.
But in his heart, the tide was surging, and he never thought that the first encounter with the survivor would be such a scene.
