Chapter 4 Receiving the Baptism of Moonlight
Time is ticking.
The stench of the agent still permeates the lab.
Xia Yujia has begun to get used to this taste, although she still feels uncomfortable, but she no longer feels nauseated.
The two of them sat side by side on the cold floor, and they could feel the warmth of each other on their shoulders.
"Xu Luo, I'm homesick, I want to know what happened to them." Xia Yujia said softly, tears suddenly rolling down from her eyes.
Xu Luo was silent.
Although he is no longer an orphan before he was reborn, his current situation is no different from that of an orphan, and he can't do anything except miss and worry.
There was nothing he could do.
The cold moonlight shone through the window of the laboratory and hit the blade of the fire steel axe, flashing a cold cold light.
Looking at the flowing cold light, Xu Luo slowly stood up, his eyes warm.
"Now, we're family."
Feeling the warmth on her shoulders, Xia Yujia stopped crying, looked at Xu Luo's resolute face, and couldn't help but feel a burst of warmth in her heart.
There were five and a half hours left until twelve o'clock.
"Come with me." Xu Luo said softly.
Xia Yujia stood up and didn't ask anything this time, her eyes were bright.
Removing the debris that had previously taken a lot of effort to block the door, the door of the laboratory was opened, and the two walked outside, and the teaching building was silent.
Xu Luo pinned the fire axe to his waist, held Xia Yujia's hand, and strode towards the stairs.
Although the corridor was dark, Xu Luo could feel the blood stains on the concrete floor of the corridor, and his feeling was really stronger than when he strengthened people.
Why?
Xu Luo thought about it very seriously for the first time, could this be the effect of rebirth?
Already brought yourself a perception beyond ordinary people?
However, according to the records, the enhancement potion will not appear at the same time as the immunity pill until half a year later, and you can now have the perception that the enhancement talent has, is this the ability that comes with rebirth?
He couldn't find an answer, only to be sure that he already had the ability to survive in this last day better than anyone else.
Having already reached the first floor, Xu Luo stopped.
"Where do you remember the storage room?" Xu Luo stared at Xia Yujia and said.
With the faint light from the open door of the teaching building, Xia Yujia pointed to the left and said, "There, the last second room." ”
Xu Luo took Xia Yujia's hand and walked over there.
When he came to the door of the storage room, he pulled out the fire axe from his waist and slashed it down with a neat axe.
Although he does not have the strength to strengthen people, his hands are very steady, and his eyesight is not trivial, and the wooden door is easily split.
Immediately after a heavy leg heel, the door of the storage room was kicked open.
After the two entered the storage room, Xu Luo immediately looked around, and his perception peeked into every corner of the storage room very carefully.
A hint of disappointment appeared on his face.
There was nothing he needed.
"What are you looking for?" Xia Yujia could sense his disappointment and asked out loud.
Xu Luo said in a deep voice: "Rope, I need a rope that can tie people. ”
Although she didn't understand why she needed a rope, Xia Yujia still thought deeply.
"Gymnasium." She was pleasantly surprised, "There should be ropes there." ”
Xu Luo pondered for a moment and was about to speak, when he suddenly heard a "squeak" cry.
Sensing that it was more than a dozen cages of mice for experiments, his eyes suddenly lit up, and a new plan was formed in his mind.
"No, I don't think I need a rope anymore, there's another way." A smile tugged at the corners of his lips.
Xia Yujia was stunned for a moment, and then pursed her small mouth, slightly unhappy.
Xu Luo noticed her unhappiness and comforted: "Yujia, I didn't think it through, but now that I have thought about it, it should be better than what I thought just now, but I still want to thank you." ”
He understood Xia Yujia's current mood, although she didn't know the current situation outside, but at this time, she didn't want Xu Luo to feel that she was a person who couldn't help.
A smile appeared on Xia Yujia's face.
"So what are we going to do now?" Xia Yujia asked.
"Go to the rooftop."
Xu Luo looked at the mouse in the corner, his eyes were extremely bright.
The last iron door to the rooftop was locked, the old-fashioned copper padlock. Xu Luo put down the last two cages of mice in his hand, and the rest had been placed by him in the hidden corners of each staircase.
Pulling out the fire axe from the back of his waist, as usual it was a stable and accurate axe, the copper padlock was easily broken, Xu Luo opened the heavy iron door, and a cool breeze came to his face.
The two walked out of the iron gate, the rooftop was sprinkled with moonlight, illuminating the empty rooftop, and looking up at the sky, except for the bright moon, there was not a single star.
The cool breeze blew Xia Yujia's long hair, and she suddenly felt that the night sky was very bleak.
"Do you dare to kill zombies?" Xu Luo's voice sounded in her ears, and it suddenly shattered the mood she had just sunk into the artistic conception.
"Kill zombies?" Her frightened eyes made no secret of the great fear in her heart.
Xu Luo nodded, then grabbed her hand and came to the edge of the rooftop, stepped on the wall of his daughter, who was only halfway up to his waist, and said coldly: "Look down." ”
After hesitating for a moment, Xia Yujia gritted her teeth and stepped onto the daughter wall and looked down.
The scene on campus can only be described as chaos.
There were no usual bright lights, only a few street lamps that were still struggling to support, and there were people running and fleeing everywhere under the dim light, but the zombie that was slow but never stopped was the reason for her to be convinced that the end of the world was coming.
Her feet couldn't help but feel a little soft, and an inexplicable burning heat scorched her nerves.
It's true.
In the distance, a fleeing man fell to the ground, but the person who passed by him did not stop, as if trying to get up, but several attempts he still did not succeed.
The three zombies surrounded and suppressed the man, and a terrible cry seemed to echo in his ears.
It's just that no one stepped forward to help, and more zombies approached.
Until Xia Yujia's eyes only had zombies, she slowly closed her eyes, not daring to look again.
"Open your eyes." Xu Luo said coldly, "Don't close your eyes, look carefully, you should know what to do when you see clearly." ”
What to do?
Fear is death; Flee, the shadow of death will come at any moment; Waiting for rescue, that's not much different from waiting for death.
Only on your own.
Xu Luo's words echoed in his ear drums like a long-sounding siren.
Xia Yujia opened her eyes, tears were in her eyes, but she didn't let it roll down, gritted her teeth and said, "I don't know if I will kill zombies, but I will try." ”
In the cold moonlight, her voice was equally cold.
Walking off the daughter wall, Xia Yujia only felt that her legs were weak, and she sat on the rooftop full of moonlight.
Xu Luo didn't sit beside her, just stood in front of her, his waist straight.
I don't know how long it took, Xu Luo bent down and gently placed the fire axe in front of Xia Yujia, and then suddenly walked to the iron door, took out an iron pipe and bolted the iron door tightly.
When she returned to Xia Yujia's side, Xia Yujia had already stood up with a calm gaze.
"We've been here?"
Xu Luo raised his wrist and looked at the time, there were still five hours left before twelve o'clock.
"Four and a half hours left, and then I'll try to lure some zombies in, and after killing them, we can go?" Xu Luo said lightly.
"Why not go now? Why do you want to lure zombies to kill? Although it has calmed down, he is still puzzled by Xu Luo's arrangement.
A smile appeared on the corner of Xu Luo's lips, a little cold.
"After twelve o'clock, this campus should be quiet, and it will be safer to walk at that time."
He hesitated for a moment, and then said: "As for letting you kill zombies, that's a must, only after killing zombies will you know how to survive." ”
Xia Yujia nodded, she had fully accepted the coming of the end times, and she was convinced of Xu Luo.
Xu Luo looked up at the bright moon in the sky again, and a flash of heat suddenly flashed in his eyes.
In the Dark Age, strengthened people were born, and those who were more advanced than the enhanced people were evolutionary people, but even evolved people of the same level were also strong and weak.
The difference between them is not in the difference in strength, but in special abilities.
Some people can manipulate fire, some will petrify their skin, and some will make a part of their body suddenly turn metal......
Xu Luo didn't have this special ability before he was reborn, he was just a strengthened person who was a little stronger than ordinary people, even if he could become an evolutionary person, he knew that he would definitely not be able to fight an evolutionary person with special abilities.
He also wanted to obtain this special ability, but after investigation and understanding, he found that there were only two kinds of people with this special ability.
One is the strong who survived before the apocalypse, and the other is the descendants of these strong people. People born in the Dark Age, if they are not related to those strong people, and no one can have special abilities, Xu Luo checked all the information he could find, but could not find any answers.
But he discovers a strange place.
The same phenomenon is mentioned in all the novels that appear in the Dark Ages.
On the night of the apocalypse, the Blood Moon could be seen anywhere on the planet at twelve o'clock, and it appeared for only five minutes.
In his previous life, when he was a hunter, Xu Luo would always look at the moon in the sky at that time, and always wonder what the blood moon of the end meant?
Why does a Blood Moon occur? Could that be where the special abilities come from? Why don't all strongmen have special abilities?
Why?
Now that he can exist on the day of the end of the world, he wants to try, he wants to see if his guess before rebirth is correct.
I came to this school building for one purpose.
There is a rooftop, and there is moonlight on the rooftop, and he wants to kill zombies when the blood moon appears at twelve o'clock, betting if he can get special abilities.
He wants to have special abilities, because only after having special abilities can he be qualified to become a special powerhouse and stand out in the future.
He wants to be baptized by moonlight, but he is only fifty percent sure whether he will succeed.
He wanted to gamble his luck.
