The hallway on the twelfth floor of the hotel was filled with the familiar smell of blood, and there were still traces of blood all over the floor, and even traces of corpses being dragged through, all of which were signs that there had been a great battle here, and that the survivors had won the battle, otherwise how could anyone have cleaned up the battlefield.
Li Xin and the three of them walked out of the elevator, and the sound of gentle footsteps sounded on the dead corridor. Although there was no trace of the other survivors, they all knew that the survivors were hiding in the guest rooms, and the messy bloody footprints on the floor were the best proof that the young waiter in the kitchen had not deceived them, and the vast majority of the survivors were gathered on the twelfth floor.
Inside the closed door of the room with the S5O4 number hanging on the right side, some uneasy whispers suddenly came out. Li Xin vaguely heard such a conversation:
"It looks like there are other survivors on this level, should we go out and have a look."
"Still don't, what if a terrible monster appears!"
"Okay, they know what's going on!"
……
"Are you all hiding?" Li Xin glanced sideways at the closed door, judging from the miscellaneous voices, at least a lot of survivors and five survivors were hiding inside, and it seemed that there were still many people who were lucky enough to survive. He turned sideways to seek Li Xin's opinion: "Do you need to knock on the door?" ”
"Okay, I'll knock on the door." Li Xin nodded and said.
As soon as the words fell, the door on the right side was suddenly opened, and several fierce-looking middle-aged men rushed out of the guest room, tightly surrounding Li Xin and the three of them.
"You're not dead." A cold voice sounded in their ears, and the three of Li Xin turned their heads sideways to look at Raymond, who looked like a wolf with torn clothes, and there was a little more surprised expression in their eyes.
"Raymond, do you know them?" A middle-aged man with a strong body with four claw marks on his face swept over Li Xin's body and couldn't help asking.
"Of course, we also spent three years in college." Raymond pursed his lips and asked, "Why just the two of you and the others?" ”
"Wang Kexia, Ruizhe, Li Xin, Yayun, Li Qinglin are still alive, when we went out to look for food and came back, the room where we were hiding was attacked, the whereabouts of several of them are unknown, we are looking for their traces." Li Xin said calmly, although he and Lei Meng did not agree, but the current dangerous situation will not be too concerned about the previous things, and said: "Yayun, Li Qinglin and Li Xin have not yet gained the ability, we must do our best to find them." ”
The last words were meant to be heard by others, telling each other that both of them had already gained mutation abilities and were not easy to mess with.
"No, they're not here." Raymond shook his head and reminded with a look of disgust on his face, "A few hours ago, none of the three people who went out to look for food had time to return. The corners of his mouth suddenly provoked a conspiratorial expression, and said loudly: "Since you have food, let us share some with everyone, we haven't eaten for a long time, and everyone is hungry." ”
"We didn't get a lot of food," a middle-aged man chimed in, "and we were all only given a small amount of food to fill our stomachs." ”
"Hungry, are you kidding me? Don't think I don't know, the hotel kitchen has been all the food you have scavenged, and you actually told me that you were hungry. Li Xin glared at Raymond with some annoyance, he actually wanted to divide the food they had gotten at risk, and he also deliberately provoked disputes, once this fragile situation would soon collapse as a result, the survivors would lead to a series of chaos.
Sure enough, as Raymond had expected, the survivors began to be confused. A well-dressed and funny decent person in the crowd also followed suit, shouting loudly in the corridor: "Everyone come out, someone has brought us food." ”
The word "food" seemed to have a terrifying magic, and the people in the corridor rooms on the right were pushed away one by one, and a large number of people poured out, surrounding the three of them to death, and some people couldn't even wait to stretch their arms towards the backpack behind Li Xin.
Li Xin looked at the crazy crowd with an ugly face, his eyes crossed the crowded crowd and saw Raymond's face showing a smug look, his face was even more gloomy, he didn't expect that at this time, the other party would not be able to put aside the previous grievances and solve the current problem together.
Li Xin, who was beside him, was also annoyed by this group of survivors who caused chaos, and he had already unfolded the short bow on his arm, put on the bone arrow and threatened: "Get out of the way, don't think we are easy to bully, if anyone dares to take a step forward, I will let him taste the arrow." ”
"Oh my God! It's a mutant. In the chaos, I don't know who shouted in horror, and the crowded crowd retreated in terror, scattering around with Li Xin and the three of them scattering around, leaving a vacuum.
Li Xin saw that Li Xin's methods were useful, so he immediately shouted loudly: "You are hungry, I know where there is a lot of food." ”
A middle-aged man who looked like a wolf stood up from the crowd, looked greedily at the backpack behind Li Xin, licked his lips and said, "Where do you say the food?" ”
"The hotel kitchen, the kitchen had plenty of food, enough for all of us to eat for a few days." Li Xin reminded flatly: "The mutant creatures in the kitchen have been reasonably killed by us, as long as you take the elevator, it only takes a few minutes to get to the kitchen." ”
The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment and said, "Since there is still so much food in the kitchen, what if you give us the food in your backpack, you can go back to the kitchen at any time to get more food." ”
"Why don't you take it yourself?" Li Xin glanced at the other party with a smile. "It's because you're hungry, so naturally you have to pick it up yourself, and we don't have any obligation to help you."
The middle-aged man was dumbfounded, of course he would not be stupid enough to say something drastic to provoke the other party's anger.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"
A middle-aged man with a thin face in a security guard uniform squeezed out of the crowd, glanced up at Li Xin and the others, and couldn't help but mutter: "I thought it was that kid from Guerra who came back!" He raised his head and looked at Li Xin and the three of them, and said, "The two of us are security guards here, why haven't we ever entered you before?" ”
"We're not guards here!" Li Xin frowned and explained, "We only had damage in the previous battle with the monster, so we had to borrow the clothes in the guard room. ”
"I see!" The guard's eyes flashed cold, and he looked at Li Xin and the three of them again, and said excitedly: "I believe the boss must be very happy to see you, come with me!" ”
Halfway through, the middle-aged security guard introduced himself: "My name is Derge, and I was the chief security guard of this hotel before that. ”
When passing through the corridor, there were many survivors in the room, and they asked Li Xin and the three about the current situation of the restaurant. Derg also seemed to have prestige here, and with just a few words the survivors got out of the way.
Li Xin and the three of them finally got rid of this group of people, turned their heads to look at the middle-aged man named Derge and asked, "Are most of the survivors in the hotel concentrated here?" ”
"Most of the people who survived are staying here, and of course, I'm sure a small number of people are hiding in other parts of the restaurant." Derge had smelled the smell of blood from Li Xin's body before, and it was even no less than the evil aura emanating from the boss's body, and showed his goodwill smile and said, "The boss is in the room, you guys go in!" He reached out and tapped twice on the door, pushed open the wooden door of the guest room, and stepped inside.
In addition to a middle-aged man with a thin face in his thirties, he was talking to the two beautiful women beside him, and after seeing Li Xin and the three enter the room, he waved his hand, and the two women immediately stood up and walked out of the room. There was only the boss and three people left in the room, and there was a faint smell of blood in the air, which came from the man known as the boss, who was injured, and the injuries were not light.
"It's nice to see that there are other people alive, and everyone here calls me the Boss, so call me that!" The boss didn't stand up, the muscles on his face twitched, and he said hoarsely, "You should also be mutants, can you tell me about the situation in the rest of the hotel?" ”
"Mutant, that's a fitting title." Li Xin said in surprise: "The current situation in the hotel is very bad, because the lights have attracted a large number of mutated creatures. ”
The boss was slightly stunned, shook his head and said regretfully: "This is indeed my mistake, originally I just wanted to restore the power facilities to normal, but I didn't expect to cause such a terrible disaster." ”
"We've lost touch with our old partner!" Li Xin directly said his intention: "I thought they might come here, all come over and have a look." ”
"Did you run into Grah?" The boss glanced at Li Xin's backpack and suddenly asked.
"Guerra?"
"It's a young lad, dressed as a waiter." The boss described Gra's appearance to Li Xin and the others.
"We met him in the kitchen." Li Xin lowered his gaze and said, "He's dead, killed by a powerful mutated creature, including one of our companions. ”
"Really? It's a shame that he's a brave lad. The boss looked gloomy and asked, "Are the other two people also dead?" ”
"We saw their bodies in the hall, killed by mutated creatures brought in by the lights." Li Xin remembered the two gnawed corpses he had seen before, and said honestly.
"It's a shame your companions didn't come here, and no one else has entered this level recently, otherwise I would have known." The boss shook his head and said: "Now everyone's situation is getting worse and worse, although a lot of food was brought from the kitchen before, but the number of survivors is too much, and the mutants need to consume a lot of food to maintain their strength, and the food is not enough." He sighed lightly and said, "What's worse is that most people are not willing to go out and fight monsters to gain mutant abilities, and if this continues, we can only wait here to die." ”
"Is that the mutation ability you gained?" Li Xin leaned on a gray-brown bone sword on the edge of the sand, and the gap in the spine could even be clearly seen on the sword, and a strong smell of blood emanated from it. Noticing a look of surprise in the other's eyes, he explained, "We have a companion with a similar ability. ”
"You're right, it's really my mutation ability." The boss stretched out his hand and stroked the bone sword and whispered, "When I first pulled him from my spine, I even thought I was going to die. However, thanks to this bone sword, I was able to survive with everyone. ”
"May I take the liberty of asking, how many people are still able to mutate?" Li Xin crossed his hands, was silent for a moment, and asked.
"Originally, there were a total of thirteen people, including me, but now there are only eleven people left, I hope you can stay, and one more person with mutation ability will have more strength." The boss opened his mouth and said: "In the current situation, we need everyone to unite together to overcome the difficulties in front of us. ”
"You're right, but we must find our lost partners." Li Xin stood up and said softly, "I probably already know where Wang Kexia and the others went." ”
Li Xin was stunned for a moment, and asked rhetorically, "How do you know?" ”
"Remember when we boarded the elevator, the elevator stopped on the third floor?" Li Xin reminded: "If the two people who go to the kitchen go to the kitchen, the elevator will inevitably stop on the first floor." ”
"Do you think they're looking for food on the third floor?" Li Xin couldn't help but give a thumbs up, admiring Li Xin's penetration, thinking ability, and being able to notice these details in the previous crisis situation.
Even the middle-aged man who sat on the sand and claimed to be the boss had a surprised look on his face.
"Go to the third floor and have a look, at least it's better than scurrying around the restaurant without any purpose!" Li Xin stood up and said to Liya beside him, "Do you want to go with us or stay here." ”
"If you don't dare to face the mutant creatures, I suggest that you can stay here and wait for them to come back." The boss said mildly. As long as this woman stays, he believes that Li Xin and the others will return here after finding their companions and get through the difficulties in front of them with everyone.
"I ...... Stay here. Leah hesitated, pursed her lips and said, "I don't dare face those terrible monsters. ”
