Tao Yuan never dreamed that someone would really help.

When he left the room, he was very careful not to make the slightest sound. This was not overly cautious, he had seen ———— two fleeing people who were surrounded by zombies with keen hearing because they were talking too loudly, gnawing at only a pile of bones.

He searched everywhere for food, and he was also very agile. From leaving the room to returning downstairs, it took less than half an hour. However, the entrance to the upstairs unit is already crowded with zombies. In the closed room, the cry of my son, who had just turned six months old, was also heard.

Adults can go hungry, but babies don't understand this.

Tao Yuan's eyes were about to split, and he howled with all his might, killing every zombie in a rage. He tried to lure the corpses away from the door, but it had little effect———— zombies reacted to smells and sounds in a very special way, they were able to judge the strength and number of prey, and then make the right choice.

Tao Yuan felt very lucky. I'm not alone. Through the thick riot helmet, he couldn't see Xinyan's face, but he could tell from her figure and movements that it was a woman. This made him no longer despair, and he also swelled out more and more intense killing intent towards zombies.

But at the same time, he also forgot that his physical exertion was too much. In a short period of time, there is no way to recover ......

There were too many zombies gathered in front of the entrance to the unit. Roughly calculated, at least more than fifty heads.

The rough gunfire and the distinctly feminine shouting caused the corpses that could not break through the door to turn around and attack the provocateurs. The outer group of corpses had turned, and more than a dozen zombies swarmed out of the unit door. They followed very closely, and the distance between them and Tao Yuan and Xinyan was getting closer and closer. These infected people clearly did not know what it was to be tired, and their faces were covered with corpse spots and rotting pus, and they all showed expressions of fearful greed and terror. With his mouth wide open and his arms stretched straight forward, it seemed that the delicious, self-running meat was close at hand, and it only took a little more to extend it forward to grab it and nibble at random.

Tao Yuan's face was pale, and he felt that the oxygen in his lungs was almost empty, and the speed of breathing could not meet the load of his body. The footsteps are getting heavier and heavier, and the backpack is getting heavier and heavier, holding down like a mountain, and it is difficult to even take a step forward, let alone wave a steel pipe to fight.

Soon, the distance between the zombie who rushed to the front and him had been shortened to less than five meters.

That horrible rotten face was closer than ever, and it could even smell the thick smell coming from between the teeth. It was a woman with a disheveled hair, and her nails had long fingers, but they were pointed like an awl and as thin as a knife.

Tao Yuan's lips trembled violently, and his pupils were tighter than the tip of a needle. Suddenly, he was retreating, tripped over the gap in the ground, didn't care about rubbing the sore spot, and quickly got up crookedly, struggled to move his steps, gasped heavily, lifted the steel pipe again, and stabbed it into the zombie's pus-black eye sockets.

This blow exhausted the most powerful force he had left.

Tao Yuan collapsed on the ground like mud, and even the simplest action of getting up on his knees was difficult.

The exhausted body is frantically crushing the will to survive, shattering the determination and perseverance, turning the last thoughts in the mind into despair that is about to be consumed by death.

Directly ahead, the thick guttural voice characteristic of zombies became clearer and clearer.

Tao Yuan raised his head numbly, his eyes suddenly widened, and in the depths of that dark black pupil, the face of a monster with a twisted and shriveled face was reflected.

"Woo ————"

Suddenly, a line that could not be seen by the naked eye swept through the air, and with a dull impact, the zombie head that was about to catch Tao Yuan's shoulder with his fingertips exploded in the next second, and the huge pressure lifted the top of the skull away, rushed out of the skull and went more than ten meters away, and slammed into the wall across the street.

Su Hao aimed very accurately.

He did not waste bullets and kept pulling the trigger calmly. The ugly skulls in the sight trap exploded one after another, and the uncontrollable rotting body fell crookedly, lying on the ground and convulsing.

Human beings have evolved in the process of life and death. Not only the body and strength, but also the wisdom and experience are no exception. The future world has a set of basic tutorials for dealing with all kinds of monsters, and a four-year-old child must be trained in Spartan-style fighting. They may not be able to have more power than monsters in a short period of time, but they must be smarter than their opponents, aware of their weaknesses, and strike from unexpected angles and directions to kill them with one blow.

Firearms are an important invention of human beings to make up for their own lack of strength.

As long as there are enough bullets and occupies a geographical advantage, Su Hao can kill hundreds of zombies alone.

They are actually very weak, ranking the lowest on the monster rating scale as "1", or "-1".

"Don't panic and keep your distance. These guys are slow, get closer and shoot again, otherwise they won't be able to do damage. ”

Su Hao had already finished firing a magazine, he pulled out a hunting knife from behind his back and slashed at the neck of the oncoming zombie. While yelling and pointing at the flustered Xinyan, he carefully observed the movement of the corpses, keeping in mind the pace, speed, and posture of each zombie, and quickly judged the opponent's attack trajectory, looking for an angle and direction that was beneficial to him. He precisely controls the speed at which his energy is consumed, and every swing is just right. It can be fatal without wasting too much effort, and the step of changing positions in time can quickly avoid danger.

In order to reduce the instability in the teleportation process, he chose the other end of the city as the landing point for the other two supply crates. Su Hao didn't know when he would be able to get ammunition replenishment, so he could only use it sparingly if conditions permitted.

The huge hordes of corpses are rapidly shrinking, and the dead zombies are all over the ground. Tao Yuan looked at this scene with wide eyes, and a strong fear suddenly appeared in his heart, and he subconsciously swallowed his saliva hard.

Really...... It's too strong.

He had never seen anyone fight so many zombies on their own. Of course, he didn't know that if Su Hao, whose body had not been strengthened two days ago, it would be impossible to do this. Taking genetic drugs to obtain immunity, the "Luther condensation layer" completely remodeled the nerve center and bones...... Su Hao's current strength is not strong, but he has a reaction speed that is more than twice that of ordinary people.

"Bang ————"

With a hideous expression, Xinyan pulled the trigger again and smashed the head of the last zombie......

On the third floor, the closed door slowly pushes open from the inside.

A few minutes later, Xin Yan and Su Hao hugged Tao Yuan, stepped on the stairs full of corpses, walked into the house, and closed the door.

The first to greet him was a burly old man. It's fat, but it doesn't look bloated. Her snow-white hair was a little messy, and the wrinkles on her face were as deep as a knife cut, full of traces of time. He tightly covered Su Hao's hand with an almost fanatical attitude, and his eyes were full of gratitude. There was a faint warmth in the palm of the other party's palm, and Su Hao could even feel that the old man's pulse was fast, and his body was trembling slightly.

"Thank you! Xie Lu Xie ......"

The old man kept repeating these two simple words. He kept holding Su Hao and Xinyan's hands, as if only in this way could he express the strongest and most fiery emotions in his heart.

Two girls about sixteen or seventeen years old walked quickly to Tao Yuan's side and helped him sit down slowly on the sofa. They weren't pretty, and their bodies were as slender as most girls. When Xinyan took off the riot helmet, the two girls had shocked expressions on their faces. They probably never thought ————that this person with a large-caliber shotgun in his hand and rotting flesh covered in flesh and rot was actually a woman.

On the chair on the side of the sofa sat a handsome young woman. Dressed in a loose loungewear, with her hair tied back in a white handkerchief, she held a baby in her arms and a soft gum pacifier as she looked at the stranger in front of her with curious eyes.

Su Hao wiped the flesh and blood off his hands, took out a large piece of chocolate from his backpack, and stuffed it into the baby's swaddling clothes with a smile.

Tao Yuan sat on the sofa, his body slumped weakly. He gasped, his chest rising and falling violently with his breathing. It wasn't until now, having escaped death, that he found that the cold sweat had already soaked his inner and outer clothes.

He looked up at the two strangers who had given him life with an expression of infinite gratitude.

"Hello, I...... My name is Tao Yuan. ”

He moved his sore legs and feet, trying to get up from the ground. The overtired nerves were unable to tense their muscles, so they could only raise their right arm weakly and reach out weakly and gratefully.

"My name is Su Hao."

With a calm voice, the two men's hands clasped together.

After a brief exchange, they quickly understood each other's situation.

It's a makeshift patchwork of survivor teams.

The old man's name is Song Zhizhong and he lives on the second floor.

Two girls in high school are twin sisters who live on the sixth floor. The house is the only inheritance left to them by their parents who died young.

The three families usually have a good relationship———— old people go to the street to buy groceries, and they always bring one to their neighbors. Sisters Han Jing and Han Ying have a lot of respect for him. Tao Yuan was the only man in several households, and he took the initiative to take on all the heavy physical work. Of course, whenever he goes out to work, his lactating wife can also get meticulous care and care from his neighbors.

Su Hao listened to Tao Yuan with a smile on his face. The young man was friendly and talkative, and from his words, he could analyze some useful information for himself.

"We've been stuck here and can't get in touch with the outside. There is no water, and food is becoming scarce. I'll have to get something to eat, or I'll starve to death......"

Tao Yuan's voice became softer and softer, and his gaze gradually dimmed.

Su Hao raised his head and found that everyone was looking at him. He sighed to himself, took off his bulletproof vest, revealed the long-sleeved T-shirt he wore inside, and said seriously, "I'm not a policeman." ”

The old man Song Zhizhong's expression was no longer full of hope, but more disappointed.

The two sisters' faces were as dead as ashes, and they hugged each other tightly, trembling all over their bodies.

Li Xiaomei, that is, Tao Yuan's wife. She bit her lip hard, her face was pale, she looked weak, and she wanted to cry.

"There will be no rescue, no army and no police. This is a chaotic world without order. We can only rely on ourselves and believe in ourselves. ”

I don't know what Lu Dao is about, Su Hao suddenly couldn't bear to look at those eyes that had lost hope. In the world where I lived, there was only death and darkness. The current era is completely different———— there is still friendship and love here, and although it is infinitely close to the chaos of tyranny and killing, you can still feel the most warm feelings.

Extinguish the hope in their hearts completely...... It's cruel to do that. But Su Hao has no better choice. Instead of letting these people still have ethereal illusions in their minds, it is better to let them see reality clearly and become rational.

Tao Yuan lowered his head and buried his face deep in his hands. His fingers were so hard to dig deep into his hair that even the joints turned white. After a long time, he slowly straightened up and said in a trembling voice, "We...... What should we do? ”

"I'll make you stronger."

Su Hao looked at him with pity, and his expression gradually became solemn: "However, you still need to help me do something." ”

Tao Yuan's eyes were full of hesitation: "What? ”

"Split all the zombie remains downstairs and remove the bones from their tail vertebrae."

As he spoke, Su Hao took out the tubular metal bottle from his pocket, uncorked the bottle, and shook out a silver bone that he had collected before......

Two hours later, the van, loaded with personnel and supplies, returned to the bank office.

The addition of new residents has brought the small building to life. Su Hao very generously shared with them all the resources except firearms———— sufficient supply of hot water, so that the women immediately liked the new residence; The electricity provided by solar panels allows babies to eat milk powder and rice cereal at any time; The sturdy and careful protective measures completely relieve the tension, so that the brain that is always vigilant begins to relax and rest.

The variety of vegetables on the table is still monotonous. In addition to turnips and potatoes, there are only a variety of different kinds of canned food. The newcomers were happy and satisfied.

Su Hao took the new members around the inside and outside of the small building, explaining in detail the role of the passage and various emergency measures. His intention was to add more eyes and ears to the dwelling. But in the eyes of Tao Yuan and others, this act of telling all the secrets to themselves is a manifestation of trust and sincerity.

"We still need a lot of things. Food, medicine, gasoline...... In a few months, the weather will cool down, and fuel and clothing must be collected now. ”

The way of thinking about problems is much more comprehensive than that of young people. His voice was sonorous: "I can go out with you." I still have the strength to deal with those monsters. ”

Su Hao smiled faintly and handed him a police shotgun: "Women and children need to be taken care of. You have to protect them. ”

Song Zhizhong took the gun, glanced at Tao Yuan who was standing next to him, no longer insisted, and nodded calmly and seriously......

The morning light sprinkled over the entire world, staining the surface of all objects with a faint layer of gold.

Su Hao squinted his eyes unconsciously, his pupils quickly adapted to the overly strong light, and he could clearly see the zombie trapped in the iron cage more than ten meters in front of him, with his hands stretched out and his mouth open and roaring.

Here, there is a courtyard not far from the bank office. High walls were all around, and the zombies in each room were emptied. It took Su Hao two days to seal the iron fence that entered and exited the courtyard, leaving only a small door about eighty centimeters wide. Using pulleys, a heavy metal baffle is suspended above the entrance. Once the tether is loosened, the steel plate weighing half a ton will immediately fall, cutting off the last way out of the courtyard and the outside world.

Two thick wooden beams have been erected above the courtyard. The iron cage modified with the anti-theft cage is also sturdy, and it can trap two to three zombies.

Su Hao caught dozens of mice.

Fresh flesh and blood have an irresistible temptation for zombies———— these virus-controlled creatures are not picky eaters, they never consider the specific origin of the meat pieces. A rat's head that has just been cut off, or half of a fleshy rat's body, seems to them to be the most urgent tonic for an empty stomach. With the help of a keen sense of smell, zombies are able to find this place from far away. Narrow gates limit the number of yards they can enter. In order to compete for the bit of meat that was not enough to stuff their teeth, they had to push each other and squeeze desperately out of dozens of their companions. When the lucky zombie entered the yard and howled and pounced on the fresh rat meat placed on the ground, Su Hao, who was standing on the second floor, immediately loosened the rope, put down the metal baffle and iron cage, and captured it in the simplest way.

Tao Yuan picked up the hunting knife and slashed the zombie's arm. Then use a metal pole to cover the zombie's neck, pull it to the corner of the iron cage, and use iron tongs to knock out the fangs of the mouth, or simply cut off the entire chin. After determining that the zombies could not pose a threat to themselves, they raised the iron cage again, pressed the zombies to the ground, injected heroin solution, calmly extracted the rotting bacteria hormones, and then collected the silver bones after the last day.

In the future world, Su Hao has been a hunter for a while. He knew exactly what to do with these monsters. They have no intelligence, except for their hideous and terrifying appearance, they are easily infected, and in fact, they are no different from ferocious beasts.

With this yard that is used as a trap, hunting zombies becomes safe and easy. Don't say it's Tao Yuan, even Xinyan or the old man Song Zhizhong are completely competent. In the past few days, the rotten bacteria hormone stored in the vault has reached hundreds of milliliters, and the silver bone that Su Hao has taken has exceeded three hundred milligrams.

There is also a grade limit to bone enhancement.

Under normal circumstances, 5 to 10 milligrams will allow the user to reach the level of hardness in the first stage. This number will vary depending on the physique and weight of the user. The second stage requires a little more silver bone, but it doesn't exceed the limit of fifty milligrams.

The silver bone taken by Su Hao has exceeded the standard required for the third stage. The zombies of this period are indeed easy to hunt, and the success rate of producing rotten hormones from them is also very high. But Su Hao also understood that ———— true purpose of his teleportation from the future world realm to the present was not exactly these things.
