Chapter 231: Let's not say that
On the empty streets of N City, the zombies scattered on both sides roamed slowly, without the stimulation of sound and smell, and these greedy predators were not even willing to speed up their pace.
"Da Da Da ......"
There was a slight noise coming from the downspout on the corner of the street, and a moment later a fat rat emerged from the spout, its pink nose fluttering, sniffing around vigilantly.
"Whew......"
The zombies wandering around naturally noticed the changes in the water pipe, and they all moved their steps closer to the water pipe, and several of them were obviously more athletic than their companions around them, and they rushed to catch the rats.
Naturally, it was impossible for the rat to sit still and wait for death, and after feeling the threat around it, the rat burrowed back into the downspout again, and the soles of its feet stepped into the plastic tube, and a series of clattering sounds sounded.
"Whew!"
As if sensing that the food in front of him was about to slip away, the zombie walking in front of him impatiently stretched out his paws, trying to grab the other party's tail before the mouse completely slipped away.
Due to the swiftness of the lunge and the secondary incumbent's lack of vision, it failed to see the obstacle in front of it, and accidentally stuck its half-broken head in the fence used to protect the water pipe.
The sound of rats stomping on the water pipes faded away, and the zombies around the street corner regained their original form after losing the stimulation of the sound, and began to wander aimlessly again.
But they hadn't wandered long before the roar of a motorcycle engine caught their attention again, and they all moved slowly towards the center of the street.
"You see those zombies are really stupid, and one of them got their head stuck in the fence......"
At one end of the street, the black Ducati galloped out, and Zhang Ning fine-tuned the handlebars of the motorcycle, deftly avoiding the obstacles on the road.
"It's true that the secondary infected body only seems to have a simple predatory instinct, and it seems that there is no IQ at all, but it can't be careless, some creatures do show sluggishness and sluggishness in the non-predatory state, but once they enter the hunting state, the functions of the whole body will be greatly mobilized......"
Tu Zhiying, who was sitting in the back seat, adjusted her sitting posture, her eyes narrowed, and she looked in the direction of the street corner.
Compared with Tu Zhiying's cautiousness, Zhang Ning's mentality is much more relaxed, the two have already left the Huayuan community, the time at this time is less than two o'clock in the afternoon, as long as there are no accidents on the road, they will definitely be able to meet their parents before three o'clock.
"With me, you can rest assured, as long as there are no mutant zombies, it doesn't matter how many of these secondary infections come."
"Mutant Zombies...... I really want to see you when you keep mentioning it......"
Tu Zhiying's eyes flashed with curiosity, and her exploration of the unknown seemed to allow her to completely ignore the fear of death.
"Come on, my good aunt, let's not say that, if I'm the only one who encounters a mutant zombie, then maybe there is still a chance to escape, if we meet together, you say I'm waiting for death with you? Or will I leave you alone and run away? ”
"you, is it really that scary......"
Hearing the joke in Zhang Ning's tone, Tu Zhiying lightly hammered the other party's back, and was about to say something more, when her attention was suddenly attracted by something.
"What is this ......?"
Tu Zhiying was surprised to find that on the back of Zhang Ning's neck, in addition to the dark scale armor, there was also a slight bulge in the center, which seemed to have something strange.
"What?"
Zhang Ning, who was driving a motorcycle, heard a question behind him and subconsciously responded
。
"It's ...... on the back of your neck"
"Oh, those are scale armor, the characteristics of pawn-level zombies, no need to make a fuss......"
Zhang Ning thought that Tu Zhiying had found the dark scale armor distributed on her neck, and said with some carelessness.
"No, it's not just scales, what is this bulge......"
The woman's uncertain voice came from the back seat, and the next moment, Zhang Ning felt a cold touch coming from the back of his neck.
"Hey, hey, don't poke around, it's cold......"
Brunching his neck, avoiding Tu Zhiying's detection, the motorcycle under him trembled, and it seemed that it was overwhelming the stones on the road.
"You concentrate on driving, don't wait a while, the two of us were not bitten to death by zombies, but died in a car accident."
Tu Zhiying said angrily, and continued to poke the bulge on the back of Zhang Ning's neck with her fingers.
"I said why are your fingers so cold, the temperature is not low today, why are your fingers like ice cubes......"
Stabilizing the motorcycle, Zhang Ning saw that he couldn't stop his aunt, so he had to shrink his neck and ride honestly.
"My hands are cold? I think it's your high temperature, right? ”
Glancing at Zhang Ning, Tu Zhiying put her finger on her forehead and said with some doubts.
It's already close to June now, and as a standard southern city, there is already a trace of scorching heat in the air in N City, no matter how special Tu Zhiying's physique is, in such a climate, it is impossible for her palms to be cold.
What's more, she didn't wear a lot of clothes on her body, if she wasn't sitting in the back seat of the motorcycle now, there was a strong wind blowing from time to time, Tu Zhiying even wanted to take off a few clothes on her body.
"Am I hyperthermic...... Groove !! ”
With Zhang Ning's exclamation, the entire motorcycle shifted to the left, and before Tu Zhiying could react, she felt that her body suddenly lost its center of gravity.
Under the effect of huge inertia, this defenseless woman was thrown out by her eldest nephew.
Fortunately, the speed of the motorcycle was not fast, so Tu Zhiying only rolled on the ground a few times, except for a few abrasions, she did not hurt her bones.
"Hmm...... It hurts...... You ......"
The pain of the fire came from all over her body, Tu Zhiying gritted her teeth and got up from the ground, and was about to speak, but she was directly frightened by the scene in front of her and stayed in place.
I saw a white, hairless monster standing in the middle of the road, tilting its shriveled head towards where she was.
No, I can't say it's watching.
Because there is no shadow of half an eyeball in the place where the monster is supposed to have eyes, only two dark eye sockets.
It's by sounding at the location of its prey, and it's listening!
The black Ducati slumped to the sidewalk, while Zhang Ning half-knelt on the left side of the road, staring nervously ahead.
"Zhang Ning ......"
Seeing that Zhang Ning was still by her side and that there was no major problem, Tu Zhiying suddenly felt that most of the uneasiness in her heart had disappeared, and she subconsciously struggled to move forward.
But Zhang Ning, who was half-kneeling in front of him, silently stretched out a hand, turned his palm up, and signaled Tu Zhiying not to move.
"Rebirth: The Great Age of Waves"
"Boom...... Gurg...... Boom......"
A shrill gurgling sound came from the monster's emaciated chest, like the sound of a long-unoiled clockwork gear turning with difficulty.
"Look
Looks a little bad......"
muttering in his heart, Zhang Ning's eyes didn't dare to leave the monster in front of him for a moment.
This monster is obviously not an ordinary secondary infected body, and it has no animal characteristics on its body, so it should not be a mutant creature born after an animal was infected by a virus.
Pawn zombies? No, the pawn-class zombie has dark scales on its chest and neck, and has a pair of scarlet eyes.
Phase-level zombies? That's even more impossible, because the monster in front of you has a bare back, no bone wings, and no flesh wings.
Zhang Ning's brain was running rapidly, recalling the mutant zombie types that Zhang Jike had mentioned.
From the outside, the lower body of the humanoid monster in front of him is unusually developed, and the muscles on the thighs are like neatly arranged strings, and its silent rhythm can be seen between slight movements.
"I'm an old swan, shouldn't I meet a car-level zombie......"
Seeing that the other party's leg muscles were so developed, Zhang Ning immediately thought of the car-level zombies that Zhang Jike had mentioned.
Mutant zombies known for their strength have overwhelming combat power.
"But don't the car-class zombies have eyeballs on their heads? I don't remember Lao Zhang mentioning this feature......"
I don't know if it's the blurred memory caused by the current emotional tension, or if Zhang Jike didn't mention the appearance characteristics of the car-level zombie at all, in short, Zhang Ning couldn't recall more recognizable characteristics for a while.
And he also noticed that the monster in front of him seemed to be a little underdeveloped.
The monster only seems to have abnormally developed muscles in its legs, and the rest of the body looks like a dried corpse, with only a thin layer of skin covering its bones, and it looks weak.
"Probably a car-level zombie that hasn't fully evolved, it seems that my luck is quite good......"
Swallowing his saliva silently, Zhang Ning thought optimistically.
He didn't associate the monster in front of him with the terrifying horse-level zombie at all, which is no wonder, after all, Zhang Jike only mentioned the name of the horse-class zombie at that time, and did not specifically introduce the appearance characteristics of this kind of mutant zombie.
"Since it's a car-level zombie that hasn't fully evolved, and it looks like it's a blind person with no visual ability, so as long as you don't make a sound, you should be able to get out of here safely......"
While thinking in his heart, Zhang Ning cautiously raised his left foot, preparing to get away from the stunted "car-level zombie" in front of him a little bit.
Just as the raised left foot was about to fall, Zhang Ning's heart suddenly flashed, and something suddenly came to mind.
"Why did this zombie in front of you suddenly appear in the middle of the road?!"
The memory of the crash was still vivid, and his attention was indeed distracted by Tu Zhiying's movements at that time, but the road in front of him was so wide, and the nearest obstacle was also a car that broke down on the side of the road thirty paces away from them, and from a frontal perspective, there was no cover for concealment in a small area.
And the strange "car-level zombie" in front of him seems to appear in the middle of the road out of thin air.
Excluding the possibility that zombies will become invisible, the only thing left is to exaggerate their movement speed to achieve the strange effect of suddenly appearing in the middle of the road.
"Mom's kiss, such a fast moving speed, it's going to die......"
Zhang Ning felt bitter in his heart, at this time, he was already sure in his heart that the monster in front of him had an amazing movement speed.
Chased by a zombie known for its speed, escaping has become a luxury, and the only way to escape seems to be to fight......
