7. Chapter 7
Closing the notebook, Gao Jian had a complicated mood: "Human beings are indeed strange creatures. ”
He gradually understood why the mutant zombies in the brain domain were obsessed with this building, and even if they became zombies, they were still reluctant to leave.
The obsession in her heart is too deep, and she misses her son and this family too much. Tucking the notebook and photo frame into the pocket of his pants, Gao Jian felt that he should do this, the zombie would not shed tears, but the emotion between the lines warmed his mutated heart.
The security door was getting looser and looser, and the frequency of tentacles was fast, Gao Jian didn't find anything of value in the room, he looked out the window, and his scarlet eyes showed an uncertain light.
Tearing open the sheets, Gao Jian came to the bathroom, dipped in blood and wrote a sentence and stuffed it inside: Liu Yi, I'll take you to find your mother.
The door opened, and Gao Jian picked up the little boy and tied it to his chest with a sheet.
"Will you take me to my mother?"
He didn't answer the little boy because his time was really running out.
Pushing open the bedroom window, the wind blew so hard that people couldn't open their eyes, and the torrential rain hit their bodies, which was very cold and painful.
Gao Jian didn't understand why he did this, why he wanted to save the little boy, why he wanted to save an irrelevant person, maybe he still had some human qualities in his heart.
The windows are the only way to the outside, which is the fourth floor.
Stepping on the edge of the window, looking out, the rain curtain swept the world, wantonly whipped the city, the water on the ground was very deep, forming several small whirlpools on the street corners, and it seemed to be able to vomit people after looking at it for a long time.
"Bang!" the security door was hit hard and the door frame was knocked away, and several green tentacles reached into the room, leaving hideous scratches on the orange wallpaper.
"There's no time. Gao Jian stared at the air conditioner on the third floor, protected the little boy on his chest with his arms, then took a deep breath and jumped out decisively.
He didn't know if he could succeed, and he didn't have time to think about how strict the consequences of failure were, he just tried his best to live.
There was a thunderstorm, and a figure broke into the storm, and he tried to control his body, drawing a bright arc.
His feet were solid and landed steadily on the air conditioner, but the zombie's body was already stiff, and Gao Jian was still holding the little boy, his center of gravity was unstable, and he leaned back.
The arm rubbed against the rough exterior of the building, breaking the skin and bleeding, but Gao Jian couldn't feel the pain. His eyes were glowing red, and although his body was falling rapidly, he remained surprisingly calm.
At some point, he suddenly reached out and firmly grasped the anti-theft net on the third floor.
The sound of bones dislocation was harsh, and the huge inertia pulled his arm out of shape.
"It's dangerous. The dense rain hit his face, and he couldn't see Gao Jian's expression at this time, he slowly shook his body, hooked the drainage pipe on the side with his feet, and after making sure that it could bear his weight, he clamped his legs, released his hand that grasped the anti-theft net, and hugged the pipe and slid down.
It wasn't until his feet hit the ground that Gao Jian felt a little scared, and he couldn't even believe that he could really do it.
Hearing the noise outside, Xiaohua and the Brain Domain Mutant Zombie ran out of the corridor, they were covered in scars, and it seemed that they had also experienced a fierce battle.
Xiaohua and the brain domain mutant zombie walked over, through the rain curtain, Gao Jian gradually felt that something was wrong, Xiaohua's eyes were red and almost dripping blood, and its teeth gently collided in the mouth, as if it wanted to chew something.
The little boy who was still in Gao Jian's arms was a little uneasy, he grabbed Gao Jian's collar, and his little face turned pale.
"It's not easy to do now, the breath of living creatures is a fatal temptation for zombies. If the little boy is allowed to see his mother, who has become a zombie, there may be an irreparable tragedy. Gao Jian untied the sheet tied to the little boy and pulled him behind him: "Humans may really not be able to coexist with zombies." ”
Looking at the little flowers and the mutant zombies in the brain domain that were getting closer and closer, Gao Jian's eyes turned scarlet: "Feast Corpse King - Level Suppression!"
"Stop me and stand where I am. ”
Activating genetic abilities will bring a lot of load to the body, which is undoubtedly worse for Gao Jian's already tired body, his senses have become dull, and his limbs are weak.
"Roar!" Just as Gao Jian relaxed his vigilance, the brain domain mutant zombie let out a sharp roar and jumped out and went straight to the little boy behind Gao Jian.
"How is it possible?" The genetic ability, which had never happened unexpectedly, actually failed, and the brain domain mutant zombie actually broke through the suppression of the level.
Gao Jian looked back in shock, and then he saw several miserable green tentacles chasing down his blood trail (the wound on his arm and the surface of the building) from the window, one of which was being wrapped around the little boy and dragged to the roof. In order to save the little boy, the mutant zombie in the brain domain grabbed the tentacles and was biting frantically with his teeth.
But to the desperation, more tentacles reached out of the window, dragging it into the building as well.
Gao Jian didn't know how he left, maybe the tentacles didn't notice him, or maybe it was because Xiaohua carried him away from the building in time. But it doesn't matter anymore, looking at the miserable green tentacles that are full of teeth and claws, Gao Jian is scared, he understands the horror of the end times again, and also understands his weakness.
The tentacles I saw before were just the tip of the iceberg, and this terrifying monster was not something that I could fight against.
"Do you just watch them being dragged away and become fodder for monsters?" took out the picture frame in his pocket, and the elegant and gentle woman on the park bench was still smiling, the breeze blowing the corners of her skirt, and the child clinging to her.
"Actually, I envy her, she is a strong woman, and she has a concern that she can't forget even if she becomes a zombie. Unlike me, I live an ordinary life, I don't dare to let go of chasing even if I like someone, I'm really a waste. Putting away his self-deprecating smile, Gao Jian's face became serious, and he stared at the black hole in the corridor.
"Xiaohua, what do you say I should do? is to turn around and leave, and from then on treat the Yueyuan community as a forbidden area and no longer step into half a step. Or kill back, rescue their mother and son, and then swallow the monster's blood-colored crystal nucleus. ”
Of course, Xiaohua didn't know what Gao Jian was talking about, it just looked at the place where Gao Jian was looking, and then roared.
patted Xiaohua's solid muscles, and the corners of Gao Jian's mouth rose: "Okay, let's kill it back and slaughter this monster!"
After putting the photo frame back on, he and Xiaohua walked around and went to the underground parking lot of Yueyuan.
"The biochemical warfare system says that the monster is a mixture of miscellaneous bacteria, and it should be difficult to destroy it with normal methods. In that case, I will go off the rails, set fire to it, and burn the whole building. Greeting Xiaohua, Gao Jian began to violently open the fuel tanks one by one.
"Hey, that's the engine can't eat......"
Half an hour later, Gao Jian and Xiaohua moved two garbage bins full of diesel fuel into the corridor, and in order to increase the power, Gao Jian also found two old gas canisters and stuffed them in.
"Now it's time to catch it. ”
At the gate of the community, the corpse of Xu Dayou, the captain of the security brigade, made outstanding contributions, his blood smeared the outer wall of the garbage can, and the smell of blood and diesel mixed together to form a pungent strange smell.
The lid of the garbage bin was fastened, and Gao Jian tied it with a rope that he had gotten out of nowhere, and finally cut two large holes in the bottom of the garbage can, telling Xiaohua to throw the garbage can on the moss on the third floor.
As he expected, a few seconds later, two miserable green tentacles stretched out from the upper floor. They wrapped around the dumpster but found that it couldn't be dragged, so a scalp-numbing scene appeared: a dozen tentacles seemed to smell bloody sharks surging wildly, and the garbage bin was dragged up alive.
"Good. Gao Jian smiled coldly, as he saw the diesel flowing out of the crevices of his tentacles. "The lead has been made, I wonder if my gift will satisfy you?"
When the sound of the garbage bin and the stairs colliding died down, Gao Jian felt that the time had come. He took out the lighter he had found in the shopping area from his black hiking bag and lit the diesel fuel on the moss.
It was a continuous firelight, very bright, exuding a long-lost warmth.
Clenched his fists, Gao Jian's gaze followed the line of fire, he was very nervous, and with such a rough design, he was not sure of success.
"Boom!"
The sound was so deafening that I lost my ears and the world seemed to be quiet all of a sudden. The malfunctioning voice-activated light exploded directly, and the glass of the corridor began to shatter, the arm was cut, blood splattered, and the rusty handrail twisted into a strange angle.
A wave of air pressed down from the roof, and Gao Jian and Xiaohua were pressed against the wall.
I don't know how long it took for Gao Jian's eyes to gradually focus, and his hearing gradually recovered.
Looking around at the dilapidated corridors, the passage of the typhoon has not been so miserable. Gao Jian stood up with difficulty, he no longer cared about the life and death of the miscellaneous fungus monsters, but was worried about whether the little boy and the mutated zombies in the brain domain would be affected by the explosion.
"I didn't expect that in a small and closed environment, the gas tank could have such a great power. ”
After inspecting Xiaohua's body and finding that it was not injured, Gao Jian climbed up to the third floor with his hands and feet. The moss here is still verdant, but stepping on it no longer makes ripples, and the simple predatory consciousness that evolved and mutated seems to be gone.
Secretly relieved, Gao Jian struggled to continue to climb up, the fourth floor, the fifth floor...... Each floor looked different, one floor was more and more tattered, and the ground above the sixth floor was still burning with flames, and the billowing smoke lasted for a long time.
A large hole was blown out of the wall on the eighth floor, and it was on this floor that the gas tank exploded.
There are two houses in the north and south on the eighth floor, Gao Jian entered the north house first, opened the blackened security door, the fire in the house was not extinguished, the visibility was extremely low, and there was occasionally a slight explosion, it was difficult to enter.
To be cautious, Gao Jian decided to check on another house first, and the door to the south had been blown away, which saved him a lot of effort.
Entering the house, the situation in the room was somewhat unexpected by Gao Jian, the thick fungus blanket offset some of the impact of the explosion, and although there were broken tentacles everywhere, the room itself did not suffer much damage.
Further inside, the room was overgrown with green mushrooms, and in the center of the living room there was a large tent-like spores. The side of the spore facing the door was blown out, and I looked through the opening.
"It's ......"
The small space was crowded with all sorts of creatures, both humans and animals, their bodies wrapped in a mucous membrane, and a thin, translucent tube was inserted into their hearts, leading to the top of the spores.
Gao Jian climbed up to the spores, where there was an artificial glass cover painted with a black crow, and when the cover was lifted, at the end of the translucent tube that was dense like blood vessels, a green seed was beating like a heart.
"If you find a lot of bioenergy, start absorbing it right away. The cold voice of the biochemical warfare system echoed in Gao Jian's brain.
