Chapter 723: The difference between life and death
A hundred meters ahead, the front of an old train that had been started was slowly accelerating. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The distance between Smith and it kept shrinking, and even he didn't know how incredible his speed had become.
The speed of about 100 meters and seven seconds far exceeds the limit that a normal person can reach.
Hope, just around the corner.
There are only a few meters left in the distance.
The next moment, he jumped sharply, his hands outstretched and grabbed at the railing at the rear of the car.
Everything was close at hand, and Smith had an ecstatic smile on his face.
"Survived!"
Sou!
In the air, a black shadow suddenly flew by.
Smith, whose fingertips had already touched the railing, didn't have time to react, his neck was wrapped around the black shadow, and a huge force dragged him into the wall to one side.
Boom!
There was a loud bang, and the lime on the wall fell with a splash.
Smith's face still maintained the ecstatic smile that had escaped a moment ago, but this smile was forever frozen in that moment.
On the top of a building in the station, a pitch-black figure clung to the ceiling and fixed itself to it, it had a hideous black mouth, and its face had no facial features, only pustules that shimmered with scarlet light, covering its entire pitch-black face.
What had just caught Smith and crashed into the wall was a black viscous liquid ejecting from one of the pus-sacks. It seemed to be able to manipulate this liquid, and it saw Smith on the side of his neck stuck to the wall with a large amount of black slime, and little by little it was wrapped and eaten by this black slime.
The red glow of the pustule on the black monster's face became even more dazzling, and a strange laugh echoed in the air.
......
On the train, which had already traveled, the three people who saw the scene of Smith's killing looked over there.
"What kind of monster is that?" said Bella, with a look of horror on her face.
Even Bella, a strengthened warrior whose strength far exceeds that of ordinary people, is like this, let alone Sheng Jing, who is just an ordinary person, is even more pale, and his heart is beating so fast that he almost jumps out of his chest.
"It'...... It won't catch up, will it?" Sheng Jing said with a deep fear in his voice.
Ding Yi glanced at the two of them, and then said, "Don't worry, it won't catch up." ā
In the blink of an eye, five of the six game participants died.
If they had known in advance that this was the result, maybe Smith wouldn't have chosen to get out of the car and walk forward.
Even that wouldn't end well, but at least it wouldn't die so quickly.
Especially Smith, he tried his best to let others die for him, but in the end, he still couldn't escape the end of death.
The kind of pain that is close at hand, but fleeting, may be understood by those who have really experienced it. Perhaps the only thing he was thankful for was that death came too suddenly, and there wasn't much time for him to feel the pain.
Ding Yi was not surprised by the deaths of Smith and others.
Originally, it was already a kind of luck for them to be able to come here alive, if they could even pass this level alive, then even Ding Yi would have to admire them.
On the train, all three of them fell silent for a while.
Bella sat in the corner, sneaking a peek at Ding Yi from time to time.
Sheng Jing didn't dare to leave Ding Yi's side, it seemed that only in this way could she feel safe.
The rest of the way was calm.
The railway is lined with trees and fields, and there are few zombies.
About half an hour or so, I saw a mountainside tunnel with barricades in front of me from a distance.
Ding Yi controlled the train to slow down and finally stopped in front of the barricade.
"It's Busan right up ahead. Ding Yi looked at the tunnel in front of him, "As long as you pass through this tunnel, you will arrive at your destination." ā
These words didn't fall on Sheng Jing's ears, but they had a special meaning for Bella.
"As long as I pass through this tunnel, I can leave alive!" Bella couldn't hide the excitement in her eyes, and the dark tunnel in front of her seemed to have turned into a radiant passage.
She couldn't wait to jump off the train, and just wanted to run over, but suddenly her steps stopped.
Turning around, Bella looked behind her and jumped off the train, and picked up Ding Yi who Sheng Jing helped her get off the train, and after hesitating for a moment, she still resisted the urge in her heart to wait for the two to come over and then go together.
"Can't be anxious, this is the last part of the road, can't be anxious!" Bella kept admonishing herself in her heart, over and over again.
Seeing that Bella actually stopped and waited for them to come and walk together, a smile flashed in Ding Yi's eyes.
"It's kind of funny that I wasn't carried away by the victory. Ding Yi thought to himself.
He had just said that deliberately to see if Bella would be tempted to run over alone.
If she does, she will be greeted by a storm of bullets, and in the unsheltered tunnel, even if Bella is amazingly physical, she will end up being beaten into a sieve and unable to die again.
"Let's go. Walking over, Ding Yi greeted Bella and walked towards the tunnel in front.
The three of them walked into the tunnel step by step, there was no light in the dark tunnel, and Bella, who had just come in, took a few seconds to get her glasses to adjust to the darkness here.
Not far away, there is the exit of the tunnel, from which you can only see a ball of light, and you can't see the scenery of the tunnel exit.
But outside the exit of the tunnel, more than a dozen soldiers stationed here saw three figures walking in the tunnel through the scope of their guns.
"Is it a zombie?"
"Shoot, don't let the zombies pass through here!"
"Wait, what if it's human?"
"How could there be a human coming over at this time, it must be a zombie!"
Click!
The sound of bullets loading rang out one after another.
Five or six soldiers looked at the three figures in the tunnel with hatred on their faces.
"Damn zombies, go die!"
The soldiers didn't even make sure whether it was a zombie or a human in the tunnel, and they attacked directly.
Several soldiers tried to stop it, but it was too late.
A barrage of gunshots rang out, accompanied by a dense barrage of bullets fired into the tunnel.
Bella, who was still beaming with joy just now, was taken aback.
Almost subconsciously, she dodged behind Sheng Jing with a quick movement, trying to use Sheng Jing's body to block the bullets in front of her.
In a tunnel with no shelter, she had to do this to avoid being shot by a bullet. As for the other person, it's not that Bella doesn't want to pull the other party as a backpad, but she doesn't dare.
From the very beginning, Bella has been secretly observing this man, and from the other party's various words and deeds, Bella has found something special.
At first, she guessed that the other person was one of the three key people mentioned on the radio, but she later reversed her own speculation.
The reason is - the other person's eyes!
It was a kind of look that was transcendent from the beginning to the end, even when the mutant zombie broke in and killed, the other party's eyes did not change, as if the terrible mutant zombie was paper paste.
From this, Bella boldly speculated that the other party might be an observer-like character arranged by Huang Quan in this trial.
He may also be one of the three key figures, but the deeper identity is the people around Huang Quan, that is, the people who can decide the life and death of these people.
If these are just Bella's own guesses, then what the other party said when she asked her to take this pregnant woman with her in the previous escape completely confirmed her guess.
So Bella was very determined to follow the other party's side, and it turned out that she did the right thing to do.
While all the other participants in the game died, she made it to the end alive.
At this moment, the hope of victory was close at hand, but at this time, they were attacked.
Bella doesn't want to die, she still has a lot of things to do, she has power that ordinary people can't reach, and there is an incomparably rich and wonderful life waiting for her.
So, she must live!
In order to survive, she did not hesitate to choose to let Sheng Jing, a pregnant woman, become her shield to block the attacks of those bullets.
She knew that those who could use guns must be humans.
The reason why they attacked them was probably because they were mistaken for zombies.
So the next moment when she hid behind Sheng Jing, Bella was ready to shout loudly to make the other party understand that they were humans and not zombies.
But as soon as her words reached her mouth, a tingling sensation suddenly came from her body.
She looked down and saw that there were blood holes in her body, most of the bullets embedded in her muscles, and a small half of the bullets were still exposed to the air. But there were only two bullets that were different, one through her heart and one through her lungs.
"Why is this happening?" Bella's eyes widened in disbelief.
She didn't understand, why she had already used Sheng Jing as her shield, why did these bullets still shoot at her?
Even if the bullets were powerful enough to penetrate Sheng Jing's body, the remaining power would not be enough to hurt her. Even if it was the bullets from those two sniper rifles, at most she would have suffered minor injuries, and it would not be like this.
Subconsciously, she raised her head to look at Sheng Jing in front of her.
There were no holes in the dusty clothes.
There were no wounds on her entire back, as if the bullets had passed through herself in direct disregard of the person in front of her.
"How so?"
Bella couldn't figure it out, her body fell back weakly, but her eyes were wide open.
At this moment, a figure walked up to her and looked down at her.
It's Ding Yi.
Bella saw him and seemed to understand something.
Ding Yi looked at Bella, whose breath of life was gradually disappearing, and said in an indifferent tone: "It's a pity that you failed to pass the last test. ā
On the ground, Bella's eyes gradually lost their sparkle, and before she died, she finally understood what those bullets would do to her, not Sheng Jing, who was in front of her.
Originally...... Everything is just a test for her.
This was true when I first got off the train, and it is still true now.
Two tests, Bella passed the first, but was passed the second.
If she didn't use Sheng Jing as a shield, she could really leave alive, because Ding Yi only set two tests for her.
Passed and left alive.
Stay here forever.
Ding Yi said that he would give her a chance.
He had already given the opportunity, but unfortunately Bella did not take it.
"While your choice is instinctive for most people, it's not what I want from you. Ding Yi said lightly, which can be regarded as making Bella die and understand.
The next moment, everything in front of him turned into black mist and disappeared.
Outside, the pictures on various image playback devices are also in total darkness.
After a few moments, everything was back to normal.
"It's over, and it feels like watching a movie. ā
"This trial is really special, it was even edited. ā
"I don't know if the next trial in Huangquan will maintain this style, it feels good. ā
"The last Bella, almost passed. ā
"You also said that it is a little bit worse, but this is the distance between life and death. ā
"But who are you talking about that man?
"Could it be Lord Huangquan himself?"
"No, it could be an assistant next to Lord Huangquan or something. ā
"Possibly!"
......
The live broadcast of the trial is over, but people have a feeling that they are still unfinished.
Immediately afterwards, everyone discussed the live broadcast of this trial, in which everyone was curious about the identity of the man who behaved strangely to the end, and most people speculated that he might be an assistant or something like Huang Quan's side.
As for whether it could be Huang Quan himself, most people still don't think it looks like it.
However, the truth is always in the hands of a few people, and only a very small number of people know that this mysterious man who has gone through this trial process is actually Huang Quan himself.
This is also the first time that Ding Yi appeared in the trial as Huang Quan.
At the end of the trial, Ding Yi also returned to the Heavenly Court base.
For the outside world, just over two hours have passed.
On the other side, Louise and Janet also turned off the TV.
Turning to look at the two strange people behind her, Louise said angrily, "Now you can go, right?"
"The master has instructed us to keep Miss Louise safe at all times. The two anthropomorphic Transformers said in unison, "But Miss Louise, don't worry, we don't usually appear in Miss Louise's sight, just like before." ā
After saying that, the two anthropomorphic transformers turned around and left directly, not giving Louise a chance to refuse at all.
But even if she refused, the two Transformers wouldn't listen to her.
I believe that after this incident, those who want to use their brains should not come to find death. Ding Yi has already made things clear, unless they are really tired of being alive, otherwise they will never dare to touch a single hair of Louise and Martha.
However, for Ding Yi's powerful way of protecting, Louise herself was very annoyed.
"Damn, wouldn't I have no privacy!" Louise cried out angrily, clutching her hair.
Janet on the side looked at her and secretly pursed her lips and snickered a few times.
