Chapter 2: The Strange Dagger
A withered figure, standing in front of us, in the darkness, like death coming.
"Click!" He walked, his bones rubbing against each other, making a crunching sound.
Feeling the diffuse aura, my heart sank, because I encountered a worse situation, the zombie in front of me was in the F and E levels, and it was possible to advance at any time.
It is difficult for ordinary D-class zombies in the town to enter, because they have an energy fluctuation meter, but zombies below D-level will occasionally break in because their own energy fluctuations are relatively small.
"Trouble ......"
With carrion on their faces and some hair hanging from their mouths, it's clear that we're not the first victims.
However, I was relieved to see that there were no other zombies behind him.
"Three, two, one...... Let's go! "Tang Ling and I had a tacit understanding that the moment the zombies pounced over, they immediately separated.
There was no accident, the zombies followed Tang Ling, because the smell of blood on Tang Ling's body was stronger than mine.
It's just that this zombie is very fast, and its sharp claws streak a cold light in the air, and even make a whirring sound.
Tang Ling covered the bleeding wound, his face was cold, and then his body quickly fell, and he brushed it dangerously, but a slender wound was cut on his arm, and blood flew out.
The zombie smelled the blood, and was even more excited, and his two hands were desperately rowing, his strength was amazing, and he destroyed a wooden table with one blow.
"The power of five stones!" Tang Ling exclaimed in surprise, and his naked body hurriedly dodged.
I rolled at the door with a donkey, and quickly picked up the dagger, which was very delicate, with strange red hair, but when I heard the power of the five stones, my heart beat a drum.
The unit of "stone" was repositioned by the country after the apocalypse, and the power of one stone is probably the strength of an adult, and five stones, I am afraid that even a rock can be shattered.
Such zombies are simply not something I can deal with.
To run or not to run?
I am very conflicted, because in this apocalypse, ordinary people will run away without saying a word, but I don't want to be ruthless.
Forget it, save it!
Anyway, it had already saved her life.
With a bang, Tang Ling grabbed the wooden chair behind him at the moment of crisis and smashed the zombie's head.
The zombies exploded immediately, and the thick green liquid splashed and scattered all over the ground.
He's dead?
I frowned, and then I saw the zombie's body shake, and then launched a chilling attack.
"Not in the head! Fuck it! I cursed, and the next second I flew over.
Unlike in the novel, headshots are not the only way to kill zombies at all, because it is not the virus that ultimately controls them.
"The zombies with the power of five stones, I'm afraid that even the defense is very strong, except for the head, the rest of the body is as hard as a stone, and I don't know if this dagger can break the defense?" I was anxious, but I was still quick to strike.
This time, the target is his thigh, no matter what, even if he can't find that thing, cutting off the zombie's thigh can still restrict his movement.
Brush!
In front of my eyes, a red light suddenly flashed, as slender as a hair, and the thighs of the zombies, which I regarded as unbreakable, were torn like pieces of paper.
"Roar!" The zombie howls without a head, naturally not through the vocal cords.
I didn't have time to be surprised by the sharpness of this dagger, Tang Ling's show hand was like a knife, directly piercing the zombie's stomach.
"Gollum! Grunt! ”
The zombie's originally shriveled stomach suddenly swelled, his belly was broken, and then a fist-sized crustacean insect was caught by Tang Ling, his six feet were still twitching slightly, his whole body was pitch black, and thick blood flowed out of his abdomen, with a fishy smell.
"This corpse cockroach is really ......big," I exclaimed.
The corpse cockroach is the real murderer who controls the zombies. When the apocalypse comes, they will emit some kind of virus that infects some people with weak resistance, causing their bodies to be forcibly modified into suitable places for corpse cockroaches to live.
Then, the corpse worm will pick a certain place on the zombie's body to enter, and then control the zombie.
Tang Ling shook her body twice, and the excessive blood loss made her face even paler, but we didn't worry too much, because there were corpse cockroaches here.
Ordinary zergs are inedible and highly poisonous, but corpse cockroaches are one of the few insects that can be eaten.
Tang Ling took the dagger in my hand, he was very skilled, and he removed all the shells of the corpse cockroach in three or two clicks, and then took out a piece of crystal clear, like white jade in its jet-black flesh.
This piece of meat, we call it base meat, because it contains all the most basic elements of human life, not only to wrap the abdomen, but also to heal wounds. And in the body of the corpse cockroach, only this piece of meat can be eaten.
Generally speaking, a piece of F-grade base meat can provide half a day's energy for a normal adult.
Tang Ling looked at me stunned for a moment, because I was drooling over this piece of base meat.
She slashed her dagger, and the flesh split in two.
"Give it to me?" I pointed to myself, feeling a little guilty for the thought of escaping.
Half of the base meat is under the stomach, like a warm current, running through the limbs, very comfortable, although the cells in the body are still hungry, but at least they will not die.
As for Tang Ling, with the help of Ji Rou, the wound gradually healed, and his face became a lot rudder.
"Put on your clothes, although you are ugly, at least you are a woman, be reserved." I scratched my head, rummaged through the cabinets, and finally found a somewhat dated feminine dress under the bed in the room.
The temperature of the room dropped several degrees in an instant, I looked at Tang Ling suspiciously, seeing that her face was cold, and I didn't know where I said the wrong thing?
Shrugged, then cleaned up the zombie corpse, and closed the door.
"Your dagger?" I still couldn't bear it, and expressed the doubts in my heart, that dagger is definitely not simple, I have never seen it, such a sharp dagger, especially the weird red light on it, like a vampire, makes people shudder.
And I'm pretty sure that I stripped naked of Tang Ling because I wanted to bandage her wounds, but I didn't find any daggers.
And in this room, I've already turned it upside down.
Tang Ling's face was expressionless, she leaned against the wall, and a faint ray of moonlight hit her face, becoming deeper and deeper.
She looked tired and had blood marks on her neck, giving her a bewitching beauty.
"I'm from the Chinese Academy of Sciences......" When I thought she wouldn't answer me, Tang Ling spoke.
Cas?!
I raised an eyebrow.
I was a little surprised.
What kind of people are there in the Chinese Academy of Sciences, even civilians like me know.
Before the end of the world, it was the largest research institution in China, and after the end of the world, it became a sacred place in China. A big reason why Huaxia has been able to survive until now is because of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
The end is coming, the nuclear bomb fails, the bullet fails, and it has no effect on the Zerg at all.
According to the characteristics of the Zerg, the Chinese Academy of Sciences has specially developed new materials to deal with them, which has allowed human civilization to be preserved.
It's just that what shocked me was that the people who could enter the Chinese Academy of Sciences were all outstanding in China, and they were basically people over the age of thirty, but I didn't expect Tang Ling to be one of them.
Could it be that this dagger is a new weapon of the Chinese Academy of Sciences?
The dagger was crystal clear, and you could see at a glance that it was special, and it was a very strange feeling, as if the dagger was not made of earth materials at all.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Suddenly, there was a sound of heavy footsteps outside the door, which was extremely loud and even a little unscrupulous in this dark night.
"Oh no, why is that guy here!?" I felt uneasy, but I didn't lose my sense of proportion, and gestured to Tang Ling with my eyes, Tang Ling was very smart, and quietly hid the dagger behind his back.
"Ye Hao, pay the protection fee!" A rough voice came from the door, and the back door was violently opened, and a large man with a naked upper body appeared in front of us.
"I remember that I just paid the protection fee half a month ago, why did I collect it again?" The person who came was called Wang An, an underworld evil wolf gang here, who seemed to have something to do with the army, so he often collected protection money from us.
And the so-called protection money is, of course, the materials allocated to us by the army.
Wang An clenched his fists and grinned at me: "In the past, it was because the supplies were still relatively abundant, but recently the army has been more deductible, and there are still many brothers in our gang to feed, so now it is changed to once every half a month." ”
My pupils shrank, and I said, "You're forcing us to death!" ”
At dusk, Wang An's eyes froze, and when he saw Tang Ling in the room, he sighed: "It turns out that your kid is still hiding Jiao in the golden house, so let's do it, my brother doesn't eat human flesh, but as long as you give this girl to my brother to play with me, the protection fee this time will be waived." ”
Wang An swallowed his saliva and weighed the axe in his hand, which was covered with dried blood.
"There is no protection money, and there are no people, so don't deceive people too much!" I blocked his view.
Wang An's eyes flashed with coldness: "Ye Hao, you have to think about it, if you are disobedient, I don't mind chopping you into human meat sauce and selling it to civilians." ”
"Get out!" I didn't waver in the slightest, and I might have compromised if I had been, but now that the situation in the town is getting worse, I already want to leave.
Tang Ling walked over and stood beside me, with a dagger hidden in his wide sleeve.
"I don't know how to lift!"
Wang An's face was ugly, he looked at Tang Ling's graceful body, and licked his dry lips, "Little beauty, do you think this man can cover you?" Under the influence of our Wolves, he is a scumbag. ”
Tang Ling's body stiffened, which was obviously shaken in Wang An's opinion.
"It's okay to come with you, but you have to waive my protection money three times." I bargained.
Wang An was overjoyed, and he didn't say much to agree.
I pushed Tang Ling hard in Wang An's direction, Wang An smiled, and reached out to hug Tang Ling.
