Chapter 35: The Black Tide (1)
Before the three of them could figure out the situation, they were blindfolded and led to a building.
When they opened their eyes again, the classmates led them into a dilapidated supermarket, flipped over the mechanisms on the shelves, and the entrance to the real stronghold came into view.
There were a lot of familiar students from the fifth middle school gathered at the door, but they were each equipped with their own weapons, and they didn't have the youthful appearance of the students at all, only the exhaustion of being invaded by fear.
The person who brought them back, Chen Chichi, knew Xue Xiao from the next class.
Xue Xiao exchanged glances with the gatekeeper, and the man immediately handed out a dagger.
Without saying a word, he walked towards Li Huixi and the three of them with a dagger in hand.
Chen Chichi and the fox couldn't help but get nervous, but Li Huixi was still very calm, first, she didn't feel the murderous aura of the other party, and second, Xue Xiao had a lot of flaws, and she could easily counteract.
Xue Xiao picked up the dagger, pulled Chen Chichi's hand, and slashed lightly, and bright red blood flowed out.
Next is Li Huixi, but Li Huixi did it herself, and she didn't want to be touched by the other party.
But Li Huixi suddenly thought of something:
"What are they testing?"
"Why Bloodletting......"
"Is it ......?"
"Detecting the presence of a strange body."
Li Huixi, who realized this, immediately turned around and gave the fox a look, but it was too late, Xue Xiao's dagger had already been cut.
As early as when he took the fox's hand, he found that the other party's hand was cold and abnormal, so he used more force when he stabbed it, and sure enough, the lake water fluid belonging to the strange body flowed out.
"It's a trick!"
"Kill her!"
Chen hadn't figured out the situation for a long time, but Li Huixi had already blocked in front of the two, and his sharp eyes shocked everyone at the door.
But that Xue Xiao seemed to have been numbed by the parting of life and death, and his killing intent towards foxes was much stronger than those people.
Others dare not step forward, he dares.
He knew very well that physical attacks could not destroy the strange body, so in order not to hurt Chen Chichi and Li Huixi, who were sure to be humans, he also put down the specially treated pistol.
Take out a tube of the injection from your bosom. You don't have to think about it to know that that thing can affect the Trick Body, and even kill the Trick Body.
With a strong killing intent, Xue Xiao made up his mind to break through Li Huixi's defense line, and strode up to meet him, holding the knife in his left hand and the tube of injections in his right hand.
Even if the other party was a human being, but there was a threat, Li Huixi didn't spare his hand at all, and every knife was pierced directly at Xue Xiao's vital point, but what she didn't expect was that the other party was wearing a special armor, and it was difficult for ordinary weapons to break through the defense.
In other words, the armor is to block close attacks, Li Huixi, who has rich combat experience, while searching for Xue Xiao's flaws, chatted with his own heart:
"What is he wearing?"
"Probably something like body armor."
"Such a low mass is not like bulletproof."
"Except for the knife...... Are there any other melee attacks that need to be defended against the whole body? ”
"It seems that there is a kind of ......"
"Biting?"
"That makes sense for what they're inspecting."
After a few fights, Li Huixi decided to take it seriously, and the killing intent in his heart gradually rose.
Xue Xiao didn't expect that such a seemingly thin girl would have such a high combat effectiveness, and she couldn't help but be a little surprised.
As the two of them were tense again, the fox opened his mouth to dispel the smell of gunpowder in the air:
"Stop fighting, I'll leave......"
Chen Chichi, who was watching the play on the side, was a little surprised, but Li Huixi instantly understood what she meant, lifted the attack posture, and cooperated with her:
"Don't come back if you're gone."
This singing and harmony not only confused Chen Chichi, but also surprised Xue Xiao, who had just fought with Li Huixi.
However, since the only enemy is leaving, the other party has no intention of fighting again, and he has no reason to fight Li Huxi again, but he still doubts the identity of this strange body:
"You can't go! Take your mask off! ”
The fox ignored him and left on his own.
As the fox gradually left, the atmosphere at the entrance of the stronghold eased.
There was no reason to fight, Xue Xiao asked Li Huixi with some curiosity:
"Who are you?"
"Friends ......"
Li Huixi replied subconsciously.
"Friends? Do you make friends with the Monsters? ”
Chen Chichi was also stunned by the question, and replied:
"Any questions?"
"You and I don't seem to be in the same world."
"You know that!"
Chen Chichi thought so in his heart, but he didn't say it.
Listening to Xue Xiao's tone, Li Huixi seemed to understand something.
Xue Xiao saw that the two of them didn't understand anything, so he told the two stories in their own world:
"I don't know from which day on, people everywhere outside of Linjiang City have been corroded by a liquid, the corrupted people are no different from humans, but they are much crueler than humans, we call them monsters. In addition, there are many monsters that have somehow appeared, only the eating instinct, and were encased in that liquid, which we call larvae. ”
This story Li Huixi and Chen Chichi are somewhat familiar, but the version of the story is different from their experience. Xue Xiao continued:
"There is a mess outside, everyone's morality and elegance have all disappeared, and the only one who has not been affected by the liquid is Linjiang City, but this Linjiang City is more like a hunting ground surrounded by them......"
Chen couldn't help but interject:
"That liquid is called lake water."
Xue Xiao glanced at her with disdain, and he was a little upset that he was interrupted, but Li Huixi also asked a question:
"Why do you say that?"
Xue Xiao continued to preach.
"They have a firepower that is twice as strong as ours, enough to easily move Linjiang City, but they didn't do it, they just let countless larvae besiege the city and ...... again."
Speaking of this, Xue Xiao choked up a little, and Chen Chichi asked uninterestingly.
"What?"
"Then disguise yourself as human beings and kill us in a cruel way, and every time this happens, we are called the Black Tide."
As if thinking of some painful past, Xue Xiao's expression was a little ugly, and his voice became a little hoarse, and then Chen Chichi realized that he was a little offended, and as a remedy, she leaned over to Xue Xiao and tried to comfort him, but was thrown away by the other party.
When the story is told here, everything that has happened in this world can be explained, but there is one suspicion that Li Huixi is keenly aware of.
"Why do you want to save humanity?"
Xue Xiao was a little puzzled:
"What do you mean?"
"As long as it's human, do you all help for free?"
"yes, that's what we should do."
Li Huixi sneered, expressed disdain, and turned his head to talk to his heart:
"In such a grim environment, anyone must only care about themselves, and I don't believe they have such a great sense of responsibility."
"It's not simple, the person who leads them behind the scenes may be a treacherous body."
"You're saying that the humans were deliberately given hope just to satisfy their hunting?"
"It's like something a monster can do."
"Then what should I do, are you still wading through this troubled water?"
"What if you don't go into the water, you can't leave this hellish place, it's endless."
"It doesn't make a difference to you whether you're in the real world or not."
"That being said, I can't always take risks with Chen."
"The last time she quarreled with you, it came to your heart?"
"There is no ......"
Here Li Huixi was still thinking about how to protect Chen Chichi, but Chen Chichi over there had already followed Xue Xiao into the stronghold, like a child who had never seen a big scene, and he was very curious about everything.
Li Huixi suddenly thought of the tube of injections, and snatched it directly from Xue Xiao's hand.
"What are you doing!"
Li Huixi squeezed out a few drops, put them directly in his mouth and tasted them, and quickly analyzed the raw materials for making it:
"It's mostly human blood, and the rest is something that keeps cells alive."
Xue Xiao didn't snatch it back after being robbed of the injection, anyway, there is no threat of trickery now, and humans have the capital to protect themselves when they take it.
"That's not right...... There seems to be a smell of lake water......"
Li Huixi looked at the fox that was blurring in the air, it turned out that she didn't leave at all, but just released some lake water to make herself weak, so that she could stay by Li Huixi's side, and the ingredients of this injection obviously couldn't completely kill the strange body.
This confirmed Li Huixi's conjecture.
