Chapter 2: The End Comes

The girl and the black man were stunned. The two didn't understand what Lu Li meant by what he said just now. The girl thought for a moment and asked in a low voice.

"The end of the world? What apocalypse? ”

It's a pity that Lu Li didn't answer. The girl frowned slightly, lost in thought. Suddenly, Lu Li turned his head and said in a serious whisper.

"I want to ask you for one thing."

The girl was slightly surprised, then nodded. Lu Li smiled and continued, "Later, if someone escapes, I want to ask you to help me save them." ”

The girl was stunned, and then smiled. She nodded happily. It seemed that she completely believed what Lu Li said. This surprised Lu Li.

It is already unbelievable to be able to escape up the high slope with himself who killed two people with his own hands. This girl believes in herself so much. Could it be that she also comes from the future?

Immediately, Lu Li smiled dumbly. Maybe it's just curiosity. Anyway, the person killed himself, and even if the police interrogate him in the future, there will be enough reasons to explain.

Thinking of the police, he couldn't help but feel bitter. Three years later, the world has become a world of extreme darkness. Large and small forces retreat to their strongholds. Where else are there any police.

As he was wandering, he suddenly heard a frightened scream from below. He hurriedly poked his head out and looked down. It's already a mess down there.

Several people fell in the crowd gathered near the bus. They looked pained, grabbed their necks and trembled on the ground. In less than a minute, they suddenly let go of their hands, and like the middle-aged man just now, they went crazy and threw down the nearest person, biting off their necks.

There was another scene of horror, and the rest of the men and women ran wildly on the highway with frightened faces on their faces. For a time, screams, cries, became the only melody on the road.

The few people who bit off the necks of the people around them suddenly left behind the people who were already out of breath and frantically pounced on the nearest people. In just one minute, those who had obviously died of anger suddenly trembled like chaff for a few seconds, and then pounced on the others like those madmen.

One, two, four, eight......

The madness quickly spread. In just three minutes, the mad man had spread all over the road, and it was spreading far away at a breakneck speed.

They frantically pounced on everyone who ran by, and then devoured the unlucky ones like prisoners who had been hungry for more than ten days. After a few bites, they threw down the corpse in their hands and continued to pounce on the other screamers.

For a time, there was chaos on the road.

"Oh, God."

The girl covered her mouth and turned pale: "Are they all crazy?" ”

"They're not crazy."

Lu Li stared at the crowd of people who were frantically preying and being preyed on the road, and his hands were deeply locked into the dirt: "It's this world that is crazy. ”

Hearing Lu Li's words, the panic in the girl's eyes quickly disappeared and was replaced by calm. She moved back, then asked in a low voice, "You already knew this was going to happen, didn't you?" ”

Lu Li did not deny it, nor did he admit it. He stared intently at the road below. There was a glimmer of hope in his eyes. He hoped that the people below would break free from their fear and escape the high slope in time.

"Why don't you sue your government in advance?"

The girl pressed again. As soon as the words came out, she smiled apologetically and said to herself: "I forgot." Without sufficient factual evidence, such words will only be taken as crazy. ”

Lu Li did not respond. He looked solemn and stared down without blinking. It's a mess down there. Everyone was in deep fear. Extremely frightened, they subconsciously fled along the highway into the distance, but they completely forgot that the high slope on the side of the road was very steep, which was quite conducive to defense.

The girl didn't care that Lu Li ignored herself, and calmly analyzed: "The man in the bus just now is also the same as those crazy people below. You want to save other people, right? ”

"Based on the symptoms, this should be a viral infection, right?"

"It was normal just now, but it suddenly broke out, it shouldn't be through the air. Those who were bitten to death come back to life and continue to bite others, the virus is currently only transmitted through guò bodily fluids, and the infection rate is extremely high, right? ”

"You just smashed the couple's head. The person who is sick can only subdue the patient by attacking the head with guò? ”

After a few questions, Lu Li's pupils shrank suddenly. He suddenly turned his head and stared at the girl beside him. He didn't expect this foreign girl to notice all the details that should be paid attention to.

"It's simple."

The girl was not frightened by Lu Li's eyes, but pressed forward step by step, and asked, "What are the characteristics of this virus?" ”

Lu Li silently retracted his gaze and shook his head expressionlessly: "People infected with the virus will become zombies like the kind of zombies in the Resident Evil movie within a minute." It's just that this zombie is much stronger than the slow-swallowing waste. In the early stages of the disease, they are like supermen, with great speed and great strength. It is only after twelve hours that they become sluggish. Only by surviving these twelve hours will we be able to escape. ”

A hint of surprise flashed in the girl's eyes. Then she regained her composure and introduced herself: "My name is Chrissy. His name is Wren, hmm...... It's my friend. ”

"Lu Li."

Lu Li replied briefly. His full focus was still on the people below. It's just that in fear, no one thought to follow his footsteps and escape up the high slope. Everyone panicked and struggled to escape from this hell of death.

They don't have time to think. Those who turned into zombies were far faster than ordinary people, and they quickly pounced on everyone around them. In just a few minutes that Lu Li and Chrissy were talking, the number of zombies had reached more than three hundred.

They drive away, prey on crowds, and quickly spread far away. No one can escape their palms. The crowd was quickly killed and bitten by them, and then turned into zombies.

Eventually, some people changed the direction of their escape. They jumped over the guardrail and fled desperately into the wilderness. They only expect the rugged, bushy ground to put those guys off.

They were wrong.

The zombies also jumped over the guardrail at great speed, knocking down the last people one by one. Then one by one the zombies crawled up, their godless eyes open, and continued to chase after the fleeing crowd in front.

The disaster is spreading, rapidly spreading far away.

In less than ten minutes, the highway was quiet. Large trucks and small cars are parked on the highway in an orderly manner, still maintaining the scene of traffic jams not long ago. Occasionally, one or two screams of fear before death could be heard in the distance.

Lu Li witnessed the road below, and smashed his hateful fist on the ground. He tried to save those people, even at the cost of doing such a horrific act in public. But he had more than enough heart, but not enough power. No one trusts a stranger until they see the facts...... Except for the two foreigners around me.

He rolled over in a dejected state and lay on the ground looking up at the sky. By accident, he noticed that Chrissy was jotting something down quickly in a small notebook.

He couldn't help but be stunned. He propped up his upper body and watched quietly as Chrissy brooding, sometimes writing a few lines of English in his notebook. He didn't speak English well enough to read what Chrissy was writing.

Chrissy noticed his gaze and looked up and smiled, "It's just my personal habit. ”

With that, she closed her notebook and asked, "Now let's hide here and wait until twelve hours later to find a way to escape?" ”

Lu Li withdrew her gaze from the notebook in her hand and nodded silently. He unloaded his backpack, took out two loaves of bread and a piece of mineral water and handed them over.

"Eat something."

He didn't finish the second half of the sentence. He was tempted to say what the two loaves of bread and mineral water would be valued in a few days' time. But he didn't say it. Chrissy is obviously smart and talks too much. His identity as a future person may be revealed.

Although I don't care, but in such an environment, one more secret, maybe there is more hope for survival.

Chrissy took the bread and mineral water and handed it directly to Wren on the other side. She looked at the backpack in front of Lu Li with interest and asked with interest.

"You were prepared in advance, and you should have known that the virus would break out at this moment. But why not find a safe place to hide? ”

Lu Li was silent. After a while, he looked up in the direction of City A in the north, and muttered to himself like a dream: "I want to go home." ”

"Home?" Chrissy felt incredible.

"Yes, go home."

Lu Li retracted his gaze and said calmly: "Since I can't stop the end of the world. At the very least, I want to die with my parents. The feeling of loneliness is too uncomfortable. ”

Chrissy didn't press on. She was lost in thought. Suddenly, Lu Li inadvertently saw a special look in her eyes - longing.

He quickly withdrew his gaze, rolled over, and continued to look up at the blue sky in distraction. Today's weather is nice and cloudless. It's just that the sun is a little hotter.

For a while, it was very quiet. Lu Li looked at the sky in a daze. Chrissy lay on the ground with her arms folded in thought. Wren, a strong black man, was chewing bread and drinking mineral water as he looked down the highway and seemed to be searching for something. The three of them were busy with their own things, but they were also comfortable.

Soon, the sun was setting. It was getting dark. In the end, it was Chrissy who was the first to break the silence on the slope.

"Where are we going next?"

Lu Li turned his head to look at her, and continued to look at the sky: "I don't know where you want to go." There is only one destination for me – City A. I'm going to my parents. ”

Chrissy Will. She also rolled over and lay on the ground like Lu Li. She looked at the slightly blood-colored sky and said calmly.

"The virus has a very short onset cycle. I'm afraid the city is full of zombies now. ”

Speaking of this, she turned her head and smiled: "Can I go to City A with you?" I've always been looking forward to experiencing the beautiful landscape. ”

Lu Li was a little surprised. He tilted his head and looked into Chrissy's eyes with a look of embarrassment. He didn't want to take a little girl with him. Although there is also a black strong man Wren, it is a doomsday escape, not a tour.

Chrissy smiled when she saw Lu Li's face was embarrassed. She propped up her upper body and whispered to Wren on the other side, "Wren." ”

Wren was stunned, and quickly read what Chrissy meant. With a backhand touch, he pulled out a pistol from his lower back. There was a soft thud, and the bullet was loaded.

"You have guns?"

Lu Li's eyes widened. At this moment, a name suddenly popped into his mind. He immediately frowned and asked uncertainly.

"Your name is Chrissy? Chris? Norton? ”
