Chapter 9: Come Out (Ask for a Monthly Pass)
Compared with going from something to nothing, the difficulty of going from nothing is always a geometric multiple, and the same is true for trust.
If trust could be gained with just a few words, that trust would be too cheap, and at least Dunn felt that if he wanted to believe something, he had either verified it himself or someone he trusted.
But it's a pity that this strange world doesn't have anyone he fully trusts. Compared to others, he felt that nothing was more reliable than his own hands.
So he disappeared in front of the small group, walking alone in the barren ruins, keeping his breathing rate to a minimum. The monsters they called the Eaters of Extremes were hovering around, and they couldn't detect his breath.
He's been a long way from the shelter, and he's been halfway to the shelter.
It's just that the bone spur in his body still seems to have some kind of activity, and he feels weaker and weaker, and in order to prevent himself from falling into a coma, Dunn has gathered all the known information in his brain, and the truth about this world is almost complete.
Human civilization has developed to a very high level, and in the process of excavating the earth's surface, something that has touched the sleeping ground should be those glowing scarlet balls on the ground now. They burrow out of the ground, and at the same time, the phases of the moon change for some reason, and the ground beneath their feet erupts into decades-long, drastic geological changes.
Very few humans survived the catastrophe, and these things that burrowed out of the ground, combined with the creatures on the ground, appeared monsters called Eaters of Poles. They feed on human life, and when they are "eaten", humans turn into stone statues.
Unable to resist this change in the ecology of the ground, some humans have established so-called shelters to survive, and the third shelter he appeared in is also one of them. It's just that for some reason, they seem to have failed, but he survived.
And the group of humans he just encountered should live in another shelter, and they relied on their own means to survive the human fire in this difficult environment.
As for the lighthouses they were talking about, Dunn wasn't interested in learning about them yet. A lot of the details about the disaster are still vague, but the purpose of coming out this time has been fully achieved.
He slowly stopped his steps and looked down at his chest, the skin around the wound had turned purple-black, as if it was beginning to absorb his own life force.
Slowly exhaling a cloudy breath, he looked up into the distance, and found a higher ground where several broken shipping containers were placed.
chose the more complete one, put down all the things on his body, and in such a weak state, his movements still maintained a strict scale, without making a sound.
Although there are no large areas of Extreme Eaters here, there are some small groups roaming, and once discovered, it may be difficult for him to die a good death.
Taking a deep breath, Dunn knew what he was up against.
If you continue to let the bone spurs remain in the body, even if you return to the shelter, it will cause irreversible damage to the body, so the best thing to do is to remove them immediately.
He also had his own considerations for choosing this place, but his current focus was entirely on the bone spur inserted into his chest.
Next, little by little, he had to pull it out of his flesh, and he had to remain absolutely awake while suffering the excruciating pain.
The most important thing is that he can't have violent mood swings, let alone make unnecessary noises!
Prepare everything you need ahead of time and keep it within easy reach.
"That sounds like it's harder than dead." The corners of Dunn's mouth twitched, and he looked at himself with a wry smile.
He had also thought about why he suddenly appeared in such a devastated world of human apocalypse.
See advanced and exquisite scientific instruments, see hideous and ugly beasts and monsters, and see the weird and eerie ground environment...... Until you meet a strange human.
He suddenly felt that all this seemed to be getting a little interesting, and it sounded quite exciting to live in the apocalypse!
Hiss!
While numbing his pain with those empty thoughts, he always remembered that he could not lose consciousness, and the interweaving of brain wakefulness and nervous convulsions was intertwined, and large pieces of sweat poured out of his body.
With a piece of cotton on his back, the bone spurs on his chest were slowly pulled out by his hands little by little, and a large amount of blood gushed out from the scabbed wound again, and his eyes slowly turned red, and he didn't dare to breathe or open his mouth.
The clenched teeth seemed to be about to shatter, and he endured the pain and finally pulled out the bone spurs, and quickly pressed the other hand against the wound with a cotton coated with a potion in advance.
Almost instantly, a little bit of crimson plum blossom dyed the cotton red, and Dunn had no time to care about it
Finally able to gasp for air, keeping in mind that there should be no mood swings, he leaned to the side, his eyes empty.
The pain is like a wave, and he will also think that he can't hold on, but after all, he ...... I still survived!
Reach out and pick up the potion that had been placed aside in advance, and without any extra movement, put it in your mouth along with the container.
Click!
After rolling his throat a few times, he spit out the glass shards in his mouth without scratching his mouth.
His chest was still rising and falling violently, but the heat in his chest was surging, and the cells in his body seemed to be shortening their division cycle, and a large number of stem cells began to differentiate into nerve cells and muscle cells......
Dunn didn't feel strange about his physical condition, leaning against the end of the container, looking out through the loophole, the movement here did not attract the Extreme Eater.
"Come out!"
Suddenly, Dunn said this.
The voice was not loud, but when the words fell, he was greeted by a calm in the air, before and now, and always be.
Dunn rested the back of his head against the iron sheet, his gaze calm, "Whatever you want to do to me, now is a good opportunity, isn't it?" ”
Obviously he was just one person, but he seemed to be sure who he was talking to.
Outside, the long-legged silver-haired beauty holds a saber buried in her chest in both hands, and her back to the container is standing so that her legs in long boots are exposed from the trench coat, which is especially straight and delicate.
The short silver hair was blown by the wind, and the fluff on the collar of the windbreaker was also fluttering, Bai Yuekui's expression did not change in the slightest, and he glanced at the Extreme Devouring Beast that occasionally walked by in the distance, and got up.
Walking to the door of the container where Dunn was, he gently pushed the door, and saw a man lying in the corner, with a large red blood on his chest, but his expression was still calm and calm, and he was facing himself who pushed the door open.
"How did you find me?"
