Chapter 13: Bone Beads

Previous Chapter

Lu Yi and the others finally decided to climb the stairs to the fifth floor, which was one of the safest routes and the most able to avoid infected people on other floors.

"There's a safety rope in the bag, take it out and pick it up!"

Lu Yi decided to take the lead and go to the front by himself, once the situation changed, he left behind and then used a safety rope to slide down the stairs, just in case.

The gloomy stairwell was strewn with blood, the occasional severed limb could be seen on the floor, and the bloody handprints and messy scratches on the walls were heavy.

"What kind of broken hospital, how long has it been since I did hygiene, spider silk makes my face dirty!"

Walking down the stairs to the corner of the second floor, Lu Yi took a flashlight and shone it up, and he was suddenly shocked beyond words.

Dense spider silk was all over the staircase handrails and ceilings, and a bloody high heel in the corner of the wall was also tightly entangled in spider silk.

"Be careful, it might be a mutant insect!"

Lu Yi explained to the two of them with a serious face, in fact, the most shocking thing was himself, it was only about half a year after the end of the last life that mutant insects emerged, and now it is only the second day of the end of the world.

"Don't touch your hands, or the old lady will ruin you!"

Mu Lan slapped Lin Junze's scheming pig's trotters, glared at him viciously, and motioned for him to go ahead.

"Hmph~ who is rare!"

Lin Junze shouted in his heart that he was wronged, he was simply a little afraid of insects, and he really didn't think too much about the black light.

The further up he went, the denser the spider silk became, the sticky spider silk was difficult to remove on the body, and the skin stained by the spider silk was red and itchy, Lu Yi realized that the spider silk might be poisonous, so he immediately stopped and wrapped a baseball bat in gauze to make a simple torch out.

"I'll open the way, you be careful not to touch the spider silk, it may be poisonous!"

"Big brother, it's late! Can you say it sooner next time? ”

Lin Junze was so idle that he had nothing to do with the spider silk and rubbed it into a ball, and when he found it, his palm was already swollen into a pig's trotter, and the place where his forehead first began to touch the spider silk also gave birth to small red dots.

"Damn, will it die, I didn't feel it at all just now, and now it's starting to itch!!"

"Don't worry, you can't die!"

When he found a large amount of spider silk, Lu Yi did not hesitate to spend energy to use the detection skill to see it, although the "Yan Huang" system was standby, the skill could still be used. These are just ordinary spider silks, with a slight paralyzing effect, and it's not a big deal.

With the burning of torches to open the way, the spider silk melted faster than the snow of salt, and when they climbed all the way to the fourth floor, the sight before them was truly shocking!

Four or five dried corpses hung from the ceiling, spider silk wrapped tightly around them, revealing only their heads and feet.

Lu Yi saw a trace of sadness in Mu Lan's eyes, thinking that these should be the medical staff of the hospital, Lu Yi approached a dried corpse and carefully burned the spider silk wrapped around his body, and what was revealed inside was indeed a white coat.

"They don't seem to have had time to mutate yet, and they are terrified and painful before they die!"

Lu Yi carefully observed several dried corpses, the expressions on each of them were distorted, and the smell of incontinence could be smelled among them.

The "F" pathogen mainly relies on infection to transform normal cells to maintain the operation of the human or animal body, and can activate dead cells to a certain extent, but Lu Yi has never seen this kind of sucking dry before it has time to mutate.

Not being able to meet infected people is not necessarily a good thing, Lu Yi has a hunch that what he has to face this time is probably not as simple as a group of infected people.

When he walked to the fifth floor, there were even mutated infected people wrapped in spider silk, but at this time, they had lost their vitality and stopped moving, and they were also sucked into dried corpses.

Lu Yi took a deep breath and carefully examined the corpse of the infected person, and found that a blood hole appeared on the top of his head, and the brain tissue and spinal cord were cleanly sucked away.

No wonder Lu Yi was particularly surprised when he saw the dried corpse of an infected person, the dried corpse looked intact from a distance, and almost all the research results showed that the human infected person could only be incapacitated by cutting off the head or destroying the central nervous system.

Lu Yi unfastened his hard hat and helped Mu Lan put it on, and the latter looked at him quietly, with something indescribable in his eyes.

"Squeak" pushed open the door of the corridor on the fifth floor, the fishy smell permeated the air, the entrance and exit were tightly covered by spider silk, and the airtight ambient temperature was obviously much higher than that outside.

"This is the intensive care unit with a separate power generation room! I know where I am, come with me! ”

Mu Lan couldn't accept this hot, humid, smelly and dark environment, and wanted to activate the power room to find out.

"Zizi...... Whe..."

As the generator began to run, the noise was very abrupt in the quiet environment, and the three of them immediately exited the power room and closed the door, fortunately, the sound insulation door worked well, but the low roar in the distance still sounded one after another.

The corridor light seemed to be in poor contact, flickering a few times from time to time, and the three of them searched one ward after another in battle formation, knocking lightly on the door of the ward, and only dared to open the door and touch it in when they couldn't hear the sound inside.

Lu Yi extinguished his simple torch, exchanged a baseball bat with Lin Junze, and walked into the ward to find that there was an aging zombie standing in the corner of the wall in a silent daze, with a "bang", this zombie ended its short life.

"Good guy, the intensive care ward is so luxurious, so big!"

Lin Junze looked like Grandma Liu approached the Grand View Garden, visited the independent special care ward, picked up the fruit on the table, wiped it and gnawed it.

Mu Lan didn't wonder and broke a banana to peel it and eat it, she hadn't eaten much since yesterday afternoon, she had been so hungry that her chest was close to her back, and at this time, when she saw Lin Junze eating happily, her gluttony was also hooked.

"Oh~ It's disgusting, you! Let no one eat! ”

Mu Lan saw Lu Yi squatting down and rummaging in the zombie's broken brains, and the half of the banana he ate almost spit out again, and he had no choice but to turn his back to his eyes.

On the contrary, Lin Junze put on a strange look and laughed at Mu Lan, you must know that when he first saw this scene, he was scared of urine.

Lu Yi didn't care about the two people who were fighting for fruit and almost got into a fight, and concentrated on checking inch by inch, as his fingertips touched a gray-white translucent bone bead, the corners of Lu Yi's mouth couldn't help but rise, and he wiped the bone bead clean from his pocket.

Lu Yi's strange behavior Lin Junze had a full view, but at this time he was eating melons quietly, and he didn't mean to ask, although he looked very aggressive, but he was delicate at the critical moment, especially when an outsider like Mu Lan was present.

After Lu Yi wiped his hands, he didn't plan to take the initiative to say it clearly, he was secretly happy in his heart, as the so-called wealth does not show wealth.

Originally, this bone bead was only produced in the skull of first-order and above infected people with a very low probability, and it was the product of virus concentration, and the virus energy contained in it was extremely valuable for scientific research and evolutionary extraction.

After the end of the world, currency collapsed before law and morality, and the bone beads in the skull of this zombie became a substitute for currency, the more bone beads, the better, the more it can prove the strength and capital of the holder, if you want to get this thing, you must play with the infected, and you can't get the bone beads if you don't get into it!

In the previous life, Lu Yi heard at the base that an exploration team had good luck and exterminated a group of zombies who were paralyzed patients before the infection in the sanatorium, and there were bone beads in almost every skull.

Although it is rumored that the "F" pathogen has the ability to activate cells, they will not waste too much energy in the face of necrotic muscles, and then invade the brain center more quickly and gather to form bone beads.

When Lu Yi smashed the head of this old zombie, he obviously observed that the lower half of this guy's body was as thin as firewood, and he guessed that he was a rich man who was paralyzed in bed, but he didn't expect that bone beads really formed in his skull, but his head was not very good.

But in any case, producing bone beads on zero-tier zombies is simply a stroke of luck!

The experienced trio, familiar with exploring one ward after another, smashed several zombie brains and never encountered valuable output, Lu Yi was not depressed about this, after all, the end of the world has just begun, if it is opened in a few months, the harvest will definitely be different.

"It's in stock!"

Lu Yi knocked lightly on the door as usual and listened with his ears, only to hear the "crunching" chewing sound in the room paused, and he suddenly knew in his heart.

Pushed open the door and just raised the baseball bat, which really scared the three of them, four or five zombies in the dim ward surrounded the hospital bed to carry out a gluttonous feast, the people on the hospital bed were gnawed almost only bones, with the three of them breaking in, the zombies looked at them blankly, and the next second they rushed over with their big mouths open.

"Withdraw, this thing is so fast!"

Finding that something was wrong, Lu Yi immediately withdrew from the ward, dragged out the two of them and closed the door, the zombie slammed on the door and roared, the roar rippled like magic, and the roars responded one after another.

Zombies of all ages popped out of the unclosed room, and for a while, three Tier 0 infected people gathered in half of the corridor.

"Don't panic, break them one by one!"

Lu Yi rushed up with a baseball bat, and slammed a stick on the head of the old zombie in the front, Lin Junze followed closely behind to make up for a stick, and the first one completely fell to the ground and stopped moving.

"Be careful!"

Mu Lan snorted, waved the crowbar with both hands and smashed it at the second one, but the crowbar was impartially stuck on the neck of the infected person and could not be pulled out, and the skin and flesh of the zombie's throat turned out without feeling pain at all, and he gnawed on Mu Lan with his mouth open.

Where did Mu Lan, a little girl, see this scene, and she was directly stunned, but fortunately, Lu Yi reacted quickly and kicked away the infected person.

"It's okay!"

Lu Yi glanced at Mu Lan's somewhat trembling body, so he took advantage of the situation to protect him behind him, and raised the baseball bat above his head to face the infected.

The zombie was kicked away by Lu Yi, and pounced with teeth and claws, and the slender iron crowbar was still stuck on its neck and swayed.

With a quick and fierce "bang", the zombie that was hit convulsed a few times and soon stopped moving.

"Don't move, don't move, I'll be the last one!"

Lin Junze picked up the stick and waved it handsomely, directly crushing the jaw of the third zombie, the zombie who fell to the ground struggled to get up, Lin Junze's stick rained down on it, until the zombie was beaten into a mess of mud.

"Whew... I'm tired of Lao Tzu! This thing is so hard! ”

Lin Junze became more and more frightened the more he fought, he had seen Lu Yi kill one with a stick before, he thought it was very simple, it was his turn to play, and he found that the vitality of this thing was simply tenacious, and he was almost bitten by it several times.

Lu Yi stood calmly next to him and lit a cigarette, although it was the second time he smoked, he was obviously more proficient than the last time, at least he would not be choked and coughed.

"Just like in the movies, just break your neck or break your brain!"

Lu Yi didn't interfere in the whole process, this is an excellent mobile training experience, and he can't protect this guy all the time, he must learn to fight the infected alone in order to better survive in the last days!
