Chapter 21: Silent Deterrence

The city is clean without the hustle and bustle, and the weather is not as hot as before. From time to time, there were a few high-pitched birdsongs, some of which Qin Jue had never heard before.

It was when the sky was high and the clouds were wide that a feeling of freedom gradually filled my chest. She stood in the sunlight and exhaled a long breath of turbid air in her chest.

There was no one in the vicinity, and no one had cleared the fallen leaves all over the ground, and time seemed to stand still. She couldn't help but shout "Ah~~~~" into the long street, and only her own echo was the echo that responded to her.

Lonely? No. She thinks that as long as she can feel the warmth of the sun and the vitality of life, it is the motivation for her to move forward. What's more, she still wants to find Wang Yiyi.

All the way south, Dongming Lake is the largest inland lake in H City, and it is also the only way to enter the city in this direction.

In the past, the drive from the suburbs to Dongming Lake was about forty minutes, but now it is all on his legs, and Qin Jue has not arrived for most of the day.

Stopping to sit on the side of the road, hammering her sore thighs, looking up at the blood-red sky, the fading light and the stumbling in the silence began to make people nervous, she got up and quickened her pace and ran in the direction of the mass merchandiser supermarket next to the overpass.

This mass merchandiser supermarket is a must-stop between the city and the scenic spot, and it was also one of the gathering places with huge foot traffic. I don't know if the person named Chen Xiao at the last meeting was talking about this? This thought flashed through Qin Jue's mind, but she didn't have time to find another place to stay.

In front of the mass merchandiser was a huge open-air parking lot, and she ran into it when there was still the last shimmer of fuchsia in the sky. Some shouting voices could already be heard behind him, hidden in the green belt on both sides of the road, in the grove. Judging from the sound alone, as night falls, the zombies are indeed much more flexible in their reactions.

She had to be faster.

When I reached a third of the parking lot, there were already zombies running out of the green belt behind me, following the sound. Qin Jue turned around and calculated the distance, and although his body was already very tired, he still ran with his legs drawn.

Halfway through the parking lot, it was already dark. At the entrance of the parking lot, several groups of zombies had gathered, about a dozen of them, following Qin Jue's movements. She looked back, her gaping mouth, gray eyes, mutilated body, and the stench of corruption that permeated the air. I couldn't help but close my eyes and run wildly.

In the morning, she was still feeling the beauty of life and the warmth of the sun, but in the evening, she was tired, and she felt that what she was out of breath at the moment was a naked irony of her young life.

When I looked closely, I found that there was someone inside the supermarket gate in front of me! There is more than one, it is a group of people. They stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, staring at her and the group of zombies that followed behind them, but no one opened the door.

The people looked at her in horror, but they all stood behind the floor-to-ceiling glass doors.

She suddenly realized that with such a large mass merchandiser supermarket and abundant supplies and supplies, how could no one gather? Soon she ran to the glass door and said, "Bang bang! He banged on the door in a hurry.

But no one opened the door, people just looked at her, panicked and angry. It dawned on her that these people wouldn't let her in.

And it's too late to think about it so much. She quickly turned around, roughly estimating that the nearest zombie had already run a third of the way from the gate. Glancing around, he couldn't see any weapons that could be taken advantage of, so he gritted his teeth and rushed forward with his bare hands.

At the front was a young man, a blue T-shirt soaked in black stains that made it impossible to see the original color, crumpled and wrapped around a shriveled body. When running, the T-shirt sticks to the body, and the ribs can be seen.

Qin Jue greeted him and stared intently at his gray eyes. Soon she felt the energy nucleus in her body spin and quickly get hot. A thin red energy line was much more condensed than the last time, and it visibly penetrated straight into the body of the young zombie. He suddenly stopped moving, as if in a daze, and looked at Qin Jue blankly.

The cool breeze ruffled his messy bangs, like lifeless straw swaying in the wind. Suddenly, his eyes turned smartly, as if life had returned to him.

turned around, looked down at his hand, moved his fingers, and looked back at Qin Jue. "He" saw himself standing there, his long hair dancing in the wind, and his eyes red looking back at "him".

It turns out that this is what he looks like when he uses his ability, and it looks like he has added special effects from the movie. "He" hurriedly turned around and rushed into the zombie group, standing in the zombie group and looking up to the sky and letting out a loud roar. The zombie hordes stopped one after another, looking blankly at "him".

Qin Jue stood up straight at this time, she could see the current situation through the eyes of the young zombie, and she could also control his body, and at the same time turn the energy core in her body to extreme speed, she suddenly wanted to try to see how far she could go.

The energy core in her body was running at an alarming speed, and every turn was releasing an astonishing force that could not be contained. Her hair gradually floated upwards without wind, as if it was floated by an invisible force field, and from a distance it looked like a flame, dancing and jumping. The eyes glowed red, and although they were not focused, they seemed to be able to see everything, empty and deep. No matter where you look, you feel an indescribable sense of oppression, a silent deterrent.

The dozen or so zombies in front of them suddenly seemed to have lost their goals, and they all stopped running and began to wander around aimlessly. It's as if you weren't in a state of wandering when you weren't stimulated, until you heard a sound or saw movement again.

The young zombie walked into the middle of a dozen zombies and let out a low roar, and the dozen zombies followed him very obediently and slowly walked towards the outside of the parking lot.

This is the first time Qin Jue has faced such a zombie group independently, and he has successfully reversed the crisis. When the young zombie walked out of the parking lot gate with a dozen zombies, Qin Jue stopped. When she retracted the energy line, she waited until she saw the zombie crowd at the door lose its target and scatter in all directions, before she looked back at the people in the mass merchandiser.

People gathered at the door, either surprised, envious or horrified to witness the whole process, and the inside suddenly boiled. Some say she is a person with special abilities, and some say that she is unidentified.

Qin Jue stepped forward and approached the gate, "Please let me in!" "The voice is crisp and sincere.

"Yes, let the girl in! What kind of mutant zombies, can the mutated ones speak? ”

"A group of big men, none of them can go out, let a girl face it alone, and you still don't let the door in!" A middle-aged woman pulled away several men in front of her, stepped forward to unlock the door, and quickly pulled Qin Jue into the door of the mass merchandiser supermarket.

As soon as you enter the door, a sultry smell comes to your face, mixed with the smell of all kinds of people, and there is a lack of electricity and ventilation in the mass merchandiser supermarket. Looking at the past, there are at least a few dozen people living here temporarily.
