Volume 1: The Age of Rebirth Chapter 22: Twilight
In the frozen atmosphere, Chen Xi opened her mouth to explain something, but she couldn't say a word, she slowly lowered her head.
"The world has changed, I hope you will accept this reality soon, Chen Xi. In addition, no one is obliged to help anyone, and it is not that if you don't think about it, I will not be tired of me, there is often a huge mismatch between what you want to think and practice, and in the future, don't easily test human nature. “
Li Zimu said slowly, his voice was not stern, but it made Chen Xi's heart cold.
The girl lowered her head, and Li Zimu couldn't see her expression clearly.
After a long time, she looked at Li Zimu again, squeezed out a smile that was not too bright, and said, "I'm sorry, I may have embarrassed you just now." ”
The girl's smile made Li Zimu's heart suffocate slightly.
He didn't expect the girl to let go so easily, which made him a little embarrassed.
Although he was very reluctant to admit it in his heart, he actually felt a sense of guilt of "living up" at the moment. What about leaving her here as a Gu cultivator?
In this contradictory emotion, his final words were still a little compromised: "If you believe me, you stay in school first and don't run around, you won't use a gun, you keep this folding knife on your body, I will come back in a few days, and then I will take you to another place if I am strong enough." “
Chen Xi's eyes widened in an instant and he took the folding knife, and couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Really? ”
Li Zimu smiled and comforted: "Remember, live well." ”
"Hmm!"
"Then I'll have to go first."
Li Zimu said, he felt a little like coaxing the child, keeping Chen Xi here, if she could become a level 9 powerhouse like in her previous life, there would be a good fate between the two. Even if it's a little lighter because of today's rejection. It's better than taking her yourself and being destined to make her a vase accustomed to relying on others.
Most of the vases in the last days will not have a good fate, and the more beautiful they are, the worse they are.
He sent her to the door of the dormitory before leaving, and the girl stood on the windowsill, reluctantly watching his back, and disappeared into the twilight.
—————-
At the door of the security office, Director Qin, who was completely drunk, was reluctant to say goodbye to the golden retriever, and repeatedly told him to be careful when driving drunk, it really won't work, Xiao Jin, you will spend the night with Uncle Qin and leave again the next day.
The golden retriever hurriedly excused himself and said that he had to go back and reply to Mr. Zhang, or he really wanted to have a good time with Uncle Wang here.
So the two set a time for each other to make a formal transaction, waved goodbye repeatedly, and then the six golden retrievers rode the four motorcycles and ran all the way to the building where Panlong Pharmaceutical Company was located.
Watching the golden retriever and his party go away, Director Qin played with the domineering vehicle key in his hand, his face was calm and thoughtful.
How can there be a happy and enthusiastic appearance that has just drunk high again and received a heavy gift.
Behind him, the captain asked him, "Are you really going to give them so many bullets?" ”
Director Qin's expression was indifferent: "If we don't sell it, we can't control the ordnance of the security department, I have heard of Zhang Long's person, as long as we show greed and thirst for materials, the more patient he will choose to trade for a long time." “
Captain Ma looked at his old friend and superior for many years suspiciously: "Are you so sure, what if he is so angry that he jumps off the wall in anger?" ”
"He is also worried that we will do whatever it takes to break the jade tile. Now that we are greedy and short-sighted, the more reassuring he will be, the more he will think that sooner or later this batch of ordnance will be his. The only thing that needs to be paid is that we have exploited some materials in the early stage. The more time dragged on, the stronger he became, and it wouldn't be long before his organization would be able to swallow all of the guard's ordnance in one gulp. ”
Captain Ma nodded: "We have too few people. “
Director Qin pondered for a long time, then turned to Captain Ma and said, "Leave two people here, we will go to the university now, we are now in urgent need of various types of manpower." ”
"Now, but it's getting dark." Captain Ma looked at the sky and groaned.
"So it's time for us to hurry, the epicenter of the earthquake in the afternoon should be on the school side, and we'll go and see how the buildings are going and how many survivors there have. We have a vehicle now, so if we can't do it, we'll drive it back. ”
Li Zimu trotted through the streets full of rotting corpses and zombies, and he walked through the city at a silent speed with the highest efficiency after balancing his physical strength and time.
And he was supposed to be found within ten meters of the zombie, but at the moment, his surroundings were unusually calm.
Occasionally, he walked close to the zombie, and the zombie only twitched a few noses and looked around blankly. But there was still a figure around him, and then he wandered aimlessly.
The zombies don't attack each other, but they do attack stranded sea fish and sea beasts. And these sea fish and sea beasts are often higher than the zombie level, and many sea beasts have begun to precipitate a level of red magic crystals from their heads.
It's just that no matter how powerful the sea beast is, it is difficult to withstand the siege of the zombie group, and it will soon be exhausted by the bite of the zombies and lose its ability to resist.
There is also a huge sea beast that is lucky to face the siege of only a few zombies, and it also successfully counterattacks in the disadvantaged terrain and devours all the zombies.
Then it crouched a little weakly, and the organs and tissues on its body agitated, growing at a rate visible to the naked eye, and the red crystals on its head slowly showed some orange luster.
It's about to start evolving.
And looking at this evolutionary posture, it is obvious that it is evolving in the direction of terrestrial organisms, and it is obvious that if the evolution is successful this time, it will begin to adapt to the terrestrial environment.
But before it could finish evolving, a grenade clicked a few times and rolled under its torso.
"Boom~" Before the sea beast could react to something, a huge explosion exploded, blowing its huge body upside down, dropping pieces of broken flesh and skin.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! A few rhythmic Type 95 rifles rang out, and the bullets slammed into the sea beast's head.
Rao is sea beast's vitality is tenacious, and after struggling for a while, there is no movement.
Bailie 740T desert boots stepped on a pool of blue blood, and a sticky bloodshot would stick to the sole of each step, like stepping on blue glue.
Li Zimu approached the sea beast, took out a machete, and easily ripped off this quasi-second-level magic crystal. I can't help but feel that having a thermal weapon is cool.
In the last days, sea beasts not only evolved earlier than zombies, but also tended to have larger resources, larger sizes, and stronger strength.
In a previous life, there were rumors from the survivors of the ships who had crossed over from the island, and they encountered an attack from a level 9 sea monster in the strait, which was shaped like an octopus tentacle but blocked the dark clouds in the sky, and the huge waves caused by every move were like a tsunami. The moment the giant beast appeared, it sank the legendary high-level giant ship, killing and injuring countless people.
In the end, the boat of several hundred people managed to cross with less than 10 people.
You must know that at that time, even level 8 zombie beasts on land were very rare.
It is even more difficult for Li Zimu to imagine that in the distant deep ocean, there will be more terrifying life forms.
But the giant fish sea beasts that are currently stranded obviously do not pose any threat to him, and it is much more cost-effective to hunt these than to kill zombies, so he is harvesting those high-level sea beasts while returning home along the established route.
Suddenly, he turned his head and looked into the distance of the city, and in his ears he could hear the sound of motorcycles coming from another block, sounding like three or four cars.
