Chapter Seventy-One: The Monster's Attack
On the road, groups of people, holding all kinds of weapons, carrying large and small burdens, even dragged their families and left the shelter. In times of chaos, people still have a certain sense of trust in the military, even if they don't trust the government.
Transferring the route, in fact, is to follow the main road, as long as you follow the crowd and walk together.
Now the awakened ability is probably able to reach about 1%, which is not a high rate, and the absolute number is quite a lot. For those who are able, the top commander of the more than 1,000 people who came here was a regimental commander, and he did not gather them for contact, but assigned a compass in advance, and a simple road map from here to Nanjing.
However, there is an advantage to asking the Awakened, many people have family and friends, and they scattered in the crowd can resist at the first moment once they encounter a monster attack!
The long transfer process, the army can't disperse its forces to take care of it, and when it encounters a small-scale monster attack, it can only rely on self-help, uniting together, ordinary people with weapons in hand, and awakened people with abilities in it.
From the arrival of the first batch of monsters to the present, 50% of the dead people are counted, and even if 1/5 of the people follow the transfer of this migration, it is a very terrifying data!
After all, it was not only this city that was transferred, but the place where all the troops entered and gave orders. As for the settlements to be built, they are the provincial capitals of various provinces and some important large cities, and there are only one or two settlements in a large province at most, and some provinces do not even have them.
For example, Anhui, where Lin Meng is located, was abandoned because the provincial capital Hefei was not too far from Nanjing. If the people of this province want to get the protection of the army, they can only go to Nanjing.
How many people in so many cities, let alone 1/5, or 1/10 of the population, will flock to the settlements?
Even the Long March cannot be compared with the scale of this great migration.
The vast majority of people who set foot on the road are probably at a loss in their hearts, whether they can walk hundreds of miles away, or even hundreds of miles away, with two legs.
There are a lot of cars, how can you drive without gas? The railroad is also unable to run, and all that everyone can rely on is their legs, and even the car that gets oil will not be able to drive away successfully, because the oil will be requisitioned by the military - that is, if it is not requisitioned, almost all ordinary people will go, who would dare to drive? Bikes are not even daring to ride.
In a situation where everyone is full of resentment and may explode at any time, being special is equivalent to looking for death!
Because of hunger, cold, and exhaustion, he dragged his family and carried things with him, and there were so many of them that it was impossible to walk fast. In Lin Meng's opinion, from this small city in Anhui Province to Nanjing, a total of about 300 kilometers, the migration army can arrive within 2 weeks, which can be regarded as lucky.
Not long after walking, Lin Meng heard a panicked scream from ahead, and then heard the sound of running, the screams of death of people or the roar of battle.
The abnormal movement quickly disappeared, and it was obvious that the scale of this monster attack was not large.
Next, such movements became more and more common, but because of the extremely large number of migrating people, the line was very long, at least Lin Meng's team had not been attacked. The good fortune came to an end three hours later, when the procession passed a street corner when the windows of the tall building above burst open!
Accompanied by the scattered glass slag, the wolf insects salivating at the corners of their mouths swooped down from the air, and the number of wolf insects jumping from the windows was more than 30, and many people were knocked down at once.
The moment an ordinary person is pounced, he is almost doomed to death, because wolf insects are very efficient in killing people. When a person is knocked down, the teeth bite down to the throat, and the powerful jaw and gums are brought together, which can crush the person's throat along with the Adam's apple and neck bones!
The extra corpses on the ground instantly caused an exclamation, and even Lin Xiaoxue couldn't help screaming.
Although many days have passed since the first monster came, under the protection of her brother, in the school, Lin Xiaoxue can be regarded as isolated from the end of the world, except for the time when she went to Ye Ying's house, she has hardly seen many cruel things.
"Fight!"
Lin Meng threw down the mountaineering bag on his back, and pulled out the blade of the insect limb pinned to his waist - the whole body was skeletonized, the blade was one meter long, and the blade was full of fine serrations, black and red, a strong and sharp combat weapon.
Ye Ying's movements were no slower than him, and he also held a worm limb blade, and the two of them rushed towards the wolf swarm, and immediately flesh and blood flew sideways.
"Monster, die!"
The old man's roar sounded, and the old man Hu saw the corpses on the ground, his angry eyes were bloodshot, holding a boning knife used to kill pigs, and frantically chopping wolf insects.
The thick-backed boning knife, which was dark and weighed 20 pounds, was held in the hands of Old Man Hu, dancing and whirring, cutting off the neck of a wolf worm with one knife, and then cutting the braincase of another wolf worm in half with another knife, and spraying the brain.
A wolf worm jumped up from behind and bit Old Man Hu's right leg, but he lifted up and kicked the wolf worm out of the wall with a strong kick, hitting the wall, bleeding from his mouth and nose to death!
On the one hand, it is the wolf worm, as the second batch of the basic class of the tide of the swarm, and the velociraptor commonly known as the "puppy" in StarCraft, the defense and life are not high, and on the other hand, the ability of Old Man Hu is strength.
It's a very simple meat system ability, but Old Man Hu has awakened, and his basic strength is about twice that of ordinary people, and when the battle breaks out, it can even be increased to 5 times that of ordinary people!
The excessively strong force during the outbreak is an extremely heavy burden on the body, so Old Man Hu can only support the outbreak for a short time, and if it is too long, the whole body will probably collapse. In any case, this simple ability is not weak.
Seeing that many people were bitten to death by monsters, Old Man Hu angrily slashed and killed wolf insects, Lin Meng and Ye Ying were also killing efficiently and quickly, more than 30 wolf insects soon became corpses.
"It's not right......" Lin Meng furrowed his eyebrows.
How could these more than 30 wolf insects alone launch a surprise attack so neatly and covertly? Sure enough, after all these monsters died, a huge shadow, mixed with a vicious wind, swooped down from the air, it was an elite wolf worm! The monster was so big that it was twice the size of a human, and it couldn't jump out of the window, so it crashed straight through a wall and fell straight down!
The elite wolf worm that accompanied the gravel rain caused another scream.
Lin Meng's gaze condensed, and he saw the direction in which this elite-level monster fell, which happened to be where Lin Xiaoxue was, and he and Ye Ying left Xiaoxue's side in order to kill the wolf insects.
Raising his hand like lightning, the tip of his finger shot out a ray of spider silk, Lin Meng used the extremely strong stickiness of crystal spider silk to stick to the elite wolf worm and drag its body to it, but when this monster pounced, it smashed through the wall and brought down a large amount of rubble.
The burst of spider silk was blocked by a stone, and the elite wolf insect ruthlessly fell on top of Lin Xiaoxue, opening its bloody mouth and biting down on the little girl's head!
The scarlet, smelly and bloody mouth was open enough to swallow Lin Xiaoxue's head in one gulp. Seeing this scene, Lin Meng did not have the despair of losing his relatives soon, because Zhao Xin was next to his sister.
Sure enough, a figure stood in front of Lin Xiaoxue, Zhao Xin!
The dreadnought gun is in the imprint space, and the iron gun is not by his side, Zhao Xin, who has no weapons, faces the elite wolf worm, his face is not abnormal, his face is as rough as a knife, his eyes are slightly narrowed, and he faces the gravel that is falling like rain, and this elite monster.
A fist-sized cement block smashed into his face, Zhao Xin didn't even blink his eyelids, let the skin break and blood seeped out, just focused and brutally punched the elite wolf worm that pounced.
The huge force hit the wolfworm's jaw, and the open giant mouth slammed shut under the violent blow, closing its teeth and biting off a piece of tongue in an instant. Zhao Xin's 36-point uppercut punch knocked the elite wolf worm in the air, and there was a brief pause.
"Bang!"
With a violent hurricane, Ye Ying, who burst from mid-air, hit the wolf worm's ribs from the side, a circle of explosion and concussion, exploded with dust and air currents, Ye Ying's head was against the elite wolf worm's body twice the size of an ordinary person, and after flying out of more than 10 meters, it hit the wall of a house.
A concrete wall collapsed like soft tofu, and there was a circle of cracks, and dust flew everywhere.
Ye Ying's concern for Lin Xiaoxue is not inferior to Lin Meng, in the eyes of the girl, Xiaoxue is equivalent to her own sister, and the moment she found out the danger, she made a super headbutt, and when the elite wolf insect was hit by Zhao Xin's uppercut, she paused for a moment, and rushed over and hit the monster.
Her strength is 30 points, and the super headbutt has also been upgraded to LV2, this move is very powerful, and the elite wolf insect that was knocked into the wall was shocked by the wall, and the mouth and nose were oozing blood!
Ye Ying was also shocked, and ordinary people would inevitably have a concussion, but her physical strength was as high as 30 points, and her defense was strong enough. The moment he landed, he pulled out the blade of the insect limb inserted in his clothes when he used his previous skill, and stabbed deeply into the abdomen of the wolf worm and slashed at it.
With a shrill dragging sound like cutting cooked cowhide, Ye Ying's knife peeled off the abdomen and chest of the elite wolf worm entirely, and the internal organs were sprayed with dark green blood.
The attack on Lin Meng's group was lifted in just a few minutes, and all the monsters were killed, but the sneak attack of the wolf insects also left a lot of corpses. Looking at some people kneeling beside the corpses and crying, Lin Xiaoxue covered her face and cried.
Ye Ying's tears were sliding down her face, even though she had seen a lot of deaths, seeing these painful people, her heart was also painful, thinking of her dead parents.
The old man Hu, who was in his 50s, had a wrinkled, dusty face that had been mixed with tears, and Lin Meng could see that this old man really hoped that more ordinary people could live—even if it cost him the life of an old man with little time.
Lin Meng watched all this silently, his face blocked by the shadow of his hat, and the two red spots in his eyes were jumping slightly.
Of course he didn't cry, but his heart twitched......
In the last days, he didn't dare to have too extravagant wishes, and his biggest wish was to protect the people around him, his sister and Ye Ying...... But he couldn't do it, watching the death of ordinary people, the crying of women and children was indifferent, after all, he was not hard-hearted.
