Chapter 35: The Diffusion of the Million Elizabeth (3)
Where are we going next?
Zhao turned her head and asked, she and Elizabeth walked side by side on a path in the ruined city, while the latter dragged the jumping insects that she had just hunted and bounced all the way forward. The head of the insect had been cut off, and the headless body weighing dozens of kilograms seemed to be as light as a feather in the blue-haired girl's hands, and the insect corpse followed her bouncing steps and briefly soared into the air, smashing a long trail on the overgrown path.
Hmph~HmphHmm~ We're going to the settlement~ Elizabeth hummed a song and replied happily. Although there are a lot of protein-rich insects in the wild, there are also a lot of dangerous creatures, and it doesn't matter if we encounter them, but if you encounter them, it will be dangerous~
Have you found a settlement? Zhao Xida glanced at the jumping insect that was dragged by her, and then asked: You mean, in addition to this jumping worm, are there other dangerous creatures here?
Elizabeth tilted her head in confusion, showing a slightly distressed expression and said: "Yes, a little deeper is caused by the very troublesome cordyceps disease, sometimes the wind will blow those fungal spores fly out, if you are infected by those fungal spores and parasitic, it will be very troublesome, the bones and flesh will be covered with grass, and the body will also behave beyond its control. Fun Cabinet
And then there are the bugs that are even more powerful than these jumping worms, and they love to show up in groups
At this she paused, her tongue licked her lips involuntarily, and she sucked the drooling saliva and added: But they are delicious! It's just a bit difficult to catch.
Elizabeth's words reminded Zhao of the reaction of those jumping insects not long ago&ash;&ash; the kind of fear that was as deep as if she had seen a natural predator, made the puppet girl murmur in her heart: how many insects did this guy kill to make these jumping insects so afraid
Well? Actually, there aren't many of them. The blue-haired girl seemed to hear Zhao Xida's heart, and every time she came out to hunt, she would catch a dozen or twenty, as long as the number was not more than above, the lone jumping insect was still very easy to solve. And their meat is firm and the nutritional value of eating is also high, you see this tight hind leg meat can be chopped into stuffing, and this sickle-like hook claw grilled can suck out the meat inside like sucking crab legs, and this rib
The puppet girl listened to the muttering as she retrieved the image from the database of the previous attack on her and counted: Well, the number of jumping bugs that attacked her at that time would not have exceeded thirteen, and it was indeed the range she said could be handled.
Perhaps remembering the previous experience of the puppet girl being besieged, Elizabeth, who was thinking about a hundred ways to cook jumping insects, hurriedly reminded: Oh yes, but don't follow me to challenge these insects. Generally, the skin of these insects is very thick, and the keratinized skin is layered like a mille-feuille, and sharp weapons and guns can't break through their skin, even if they use a flamethrower, they have to continue to burn to burn them to death, so the fastest solution is to strangle its cervical vertebrae like me, or simply break the spinal cord by other means
Of course, if you are not sure, it is best to avoid them far away, because once they find their prey, they will attack without fear of death, and they will quickly flap their wings to call friends, and summon all the nearby insects, which is how it was when I first encountered these jumping insects, obviously there were only one or two jumping insects, but after the fight, I felt that I was fighting more and more, and finally I finished fighting, wow! There were more than thirty jumping worms lying on the ground
Suck and then that day was the day I had the most to eat.
This exhortation made Zhao Xida feel an indescribable sense of disobedience in her heart.
According to the past six months of getting along, the smug personality of Elizabeth she is familiar with will not be so meticulous, let alone caring about people, if it weren't for this face full of smirks, the extraordinary fluctuations surging on her body, and the condition launch that she began to drool at the mention of eating, she would have wondered if Elizabeth was taken away by something
This guy's split personality isn't good yet? Or has it worsened again?
The puppet girl immediately remembered the mental problems she had left behind after a previous incident.
But Elizabeth didn't care what she was muttering in her heart, and after talking about it for a long time, she turned the topic back again.
And then there's the bone man~ The words of the bone man are different from the bugs everywhere
Some of them stay on the edge of the Western Desert, and some of them stay on the side of the sunken city, and they rarely wander here, but you have to remember that the skeletons are very powerful, they have very smart ears, very smart noses, and very sharp eyes, and can spot others outside of their field of vision. So if you find a bone man in your field of vision, then he must have found you too, and the way to escape from the bone man is to run, keep running, and run as far as possible
Bone man? Hearing this strange name, Zhao Xida opened her mouth and asked: Is this bone man an undead spirit driven by a necromancer?
Hey&ash;&ash;? Elizabeth dragged out her voice and looked at her with a strange expression: Don't you know the bone man? It's the kind of humanoid monster who is about the same size as me, but the whole body is black and there is no flesh, and he still has his teeth when he bites
The blue-haired girl said as she gestured with her hand, but her description was too abstract, causing the unimaginative Zhao Jida to model it in her head for most of the day, and finally could only think of an image of a skeleton soldier
Perhaps it was Elizabeth's deterrent power here as a tyrant of the ruined city, and the two were not attacked by jumping insects along the way, and there were even many sporadic jumping insects and wild animals that were scared away by her. As the grass grew in height and the towering trees around them dwindled, the two of them were soon out of the overgrown city streets and into a less densely vegetated spot on the other side of the city.
There was no half-man-deep dense grass on this side, no towering trees growing through the concrete, and although the lawn still covered the town's original streets, there were obvious signs of human activity in the vicinity, vines and creepers that had been specially cleared, concrete buildings with tattered and barbed wire fences to block the walls, a trampled path that stretched from the lawn to the concrete buildings not far away, and a pond that was clearly excavated by hand.
The sun is shining, the fragrance of exotic flowers and plants wafts in the air, and flies into the distance by the wind, the butterflies are dancing in the six-colored flowers, the pond is sparkling, and the sharp-eyed Zhao Jida also sees a lot of fish swimming in the small pond.
Hi ~ Hello ~ Do you want to eat some jumping worm meat? As she passed by the pond, Elizabeth greeted the fish in the pond warmly, but a look of disdain flashed in the fish's eyes, and she was watered by a flick of her tail.
Zhao Xida:
This kind of thing is also common~ Elizabeth didn't care, she reached out to wipe the water from her face, the crystal clear water droplets fell all the way down the white skin into the collar, a few strands of wet blue hair stuck to her cheeks, and she showed her bright smile in the past. Being moistened by the fish not only did not make her embarrassed, but looked more bright and moving under the sun.
It can be seen that Zhao Jida has a trace of intimacy with her for no reason.
The two walked along the dirt path that had been trodden out for a while before they reached the retaining wall, and Elizabeth stopped her progress.
Don't you go in?
Let's wait a minute. Elizabeth put down the headless jumping worm in her hand, took a deep breath, and then shouted in a trumpet shape with both hands: "Village&ash;&ash; long! I'm back!
Chief! Open the door!
You have the ability to build a settlement, you have the ability to open the door!
After a brief silence, Zhao heard a noisy and flustered noise coming from behind the retaining walls.
Heartless eyes are back!
What!? The woman is back!? All staff are on alert!
Hurry up, hurry up! Evacuate the children immediately and let the children return to their homes first!
Others are back indoors! Don't come into contact with her!
Who's on duty today!
Chief! My Mind Shadow Alloy Ring is gone!
You can lose such an important ring, I look at the second pillar, you will wait for death
Help me! I don't want to be that Elizabeth!
Hearing the noise and noise coming from the settlement, the puppet girl turned her head stiffly to look at Elizabeth: "What have you done in the settlement?"
Aha~ She shows
Ran also heard the voice coming from inside, touched the back of his head and laughed awkwardly, in fact, I don't know why they are so afraid of me
After the commotion lasted for a while, Zhao Xida saw that, as if some mechanism had been activated, with a heavy moving sound, one of the retaining walls made of tattered plates and barbed wire slowly opened, and then a group of people came out of it nervously in full armor.
At the head was an old man in his prime, who was clumsy, and carried a crutch taller than him, and most of the people behind him were young men in their twenties and thirties, either with rifles, crossbows, or even a dung fork, and each of them had a nervous expression on their faces.
Chief! Two pillars! And everyone! Elizabeth waved excitedly at the old man, ouch! I miss you guys!
Her actions startled everyone behind the village chief, and several of them were so frightened that they picked up their guns and almost pulled the trigger.
Don't move! Put your guns down, too! The village chief has seen the world anyway, and he knocked on his crutches vigorously to calm down both sides, Lady Elizabeth, what are you doing today when you came to our village
I'm here to get you something to change! Elizabeth raised the headless jumping worm in her hand, and pointed to Zhao Xida beside her, by the way, I will help you bring back a surviving little girl!
Zhao Jida turned her head to look at her in shock, and the flickering data stream in her eyes gradually converged into a string of question marks: ?????
The village chief opened his mouth as if he was about to refuse, but his gaze fell on the headless jumping worm in Elizabeth's hand again, as if he had thought of something, and the words came to his lips and swallowed hard, and changed his words.
Well, let's come in and talk
