Doomsday crisis survival game
Chapter 72 Bitter Life
The convoy from the Quanzhou base immediately bombarded the plague doctor.
The withering effect caused by the Plague Doctor gradually weakens after entering the range of the Undead Tree.
According to Doug's observation, this is probably some kind of life decay effect, because these plants are just aging instead of disease. The white light emitted by the white lamp in the plague doctor's hand is also some kind of radiation, and the effect is currently unknown.
"It's really troublesome."
Young Doug said impatiently.
This incident was initiated by the research institute, and Doug, the director of the technical department, has considerable command power.
She blocked all of the Plague Doctor's movements, and after dodging a cannonball attack, the Plague Doctor was hit by another attack.
Out of caution, Doug did not order them to continue the attack.
After the smoke and dust cleared, the plague doctor knelt on one knee, covering his chest. The sound of labored breathing came from his mask. The lantern in his hand flickered, and it seemed that the shell had indeed hit him.
She slowly raised her head and looked in the direction of the humans, wondering what she was thinking.
Its figure disappeared like a phantom, and its whereabouts disappeared.
Doug's eyes fixed, and she immediately turned to look in the direction of the convoy.
The plague doctor appeared behind a soldier, and his black-gloved hand touched the soldier, who immediately let out a heart-wrenching scream before realizing what was happening.
His body twitched uncontrollably, as if in great pain, but he soon became motionless, his dead body collapsing to the ground.
This happened within a second, and by the time the people around him reacted, the plague doctor had disappeared from the spot.
The fisherwoman who was watching on the side was puzzled.
What does this plague doctor want to do?
The people around quickly moved away from the corpse and became alert, but the plague doctor did not appear again, and they realized that the crisis seemed to be over for the time being.
The plague doctor seemed to have given up attacking them for the time being.
No one dared to approach the corpse, so they burned it on the spot. However, the people around the corpse did not get infected with the disease. The plague doctor's behavior was more like... asking for a price.
Doug inexplicably recalled the words in the plague doctor's character profile.
[She is the embodiment of disaster, there is no doubt about that. But sometimes you can trust her, because she is also a warning of disaster]
Warning of disaster, what disaster will their contact bring?
Doug was thinking, but the fisherwoman who was watching had already vaguely understood something.
The fisherwoman could clearly sense the state of existence of the plague doctor. She felt that the plague doctor had no thoughts of her own, or that she did not have the same thoughts as the fisherwoman and the others. The plague doctor's brain was in chaos. The behaviors that seemed logical and personal to her were just the fixed behaviors and instinctive reactions of the "plague doctor".
The plague doctor has no emotions of his own. He is something that even the fisherman's wife finds weird and strange.
There must be other reasons behind the plague doctor's strange behavior. The fisherman's wife could see that the plague doctor had no intention of risking his life with the Quanzhou base.
If that's the case, is there any need for her to stop it?
The fisherwoman was still hesitant in her heart, but her inaction at the moment had already made her decision. She decided to trust her own kind, also to protect herself.
But she still followed the group from the Quanzhou base, like a wild beast lurking in the dark.
The convoy stopped outside the base, but no one came out to check. Instead, several people got out of a car representing the research institute, all of them women.
The upper bodies of these people were tied up with restraints and their eyes were covered with gauze. Their expressions were extremely painful, as if they were fighting against something. They endured great pain every time they took a step and needed someone to support them to move.
After all these people got out of the car, the remaining people in the car were carried out.
The roots growing out of their bodies tightly wrapped around their torsos, looking terrifying.
These people were all men. The people at the Quanzhou base took them to the designated location and threw them into a dug pit. They then shot them in the pit to end their lives.
A towering immortal tree grew out from the original spot. Although it was not even one-tenth the size of the immortal tree that the fisherwoman had seen, it was indeed an immortal tree in appearance.
Doug was in charge of directing these matters, but she watched these people coldly from beginning to end. There was no pity on her face for the living people in front of her, nor for the dead people behind her, only coldness.
All the people in front were taken into the base. After finishing the rest of the work, Doug also led the rest of the people into the base, and the fisherman's wife also left.
Liu Ye was not with the fisherman's wife at this time, she had her own things to do.
Liu Ye was lying in ambush on a tall building. When XW's lonely figure appeared in her sight, she immediately jumped down from the building to block her.
XW stopped and stood there without making any other movements. She stared at the willow leaves in the distance with her dark eyes.
Liu Ye couldn't tell any expression from her emotionless face, but she could read a strange sense of alertness and caution from her dark eyes and the way she stayed where she was. XW looked at her as if he was thinking about how to deal with Liu Ye.
"You told me to wait for you outside. Now I'm here. Do you have anything to say to me?" Liu Ye said, "Or how can I help..."
"I lied to you."
"what?"
Liu Ye couldn't believe that these words came out of her mouth.
"I told you, I lied to you." XW said extremely hurtful words to Liu Ye in a low and casual voice like a real liar, "I thought you would bring me trouble and ruin my business, so I lied to you. And is this really a lie?"
"I just said something, and you really did it."
Liu Ye stared at XW, the veins on her forehead bulging. She gritted her teeth and squeezed out a few words: "So you've been using me from the beginning to the end?"
He took advantage of her promise to ask her to protect her, to ask her to help her solve the troubles that came to her door, and to ask her to personally send her to the Quanzhou base and abandon her, just like a white-eyed wolf who turns his back on his friend.
Liu Ye was furious, and XW looked at her with a lack of interest as if he was bored. Suddenly, she seemed to feel a little amused and the corners of her mouth curved into a relaxed arc.
The little liar gave her a sly smile, as if she was mocking Liu Ye's naivety and her stupidity.
XW's words that showed that he didn't care about Liu Ye's feelings deeply hurt Liu Ye's heart. Even though Liu Ye knew that XW might be acting to deceive her, if she cut off ties with him, it would also deeply hurt Liu Ye.
However, even though Liu Ye was so angry, she did not try to get close to XW. If she approached XW rashly, the bomb on XW's body might explode. Their every move was monitored by the people in the Quanzhou base, and XW's precarious life was still in her hands.
XW heard the voices of people from the research institute in her earphone. Looking at Liu Ye's angry face, she felt a sense of incomprehension as a bystander. She even had an idea in her mind - that Liu Ye should walk up to her and hug her, and then they should die together in the explosion.
In this way, until the last moment before her death, she could throw off all the disguises, real or false, without any burden.
But the reality was that she and Liu Ye were facing each other, neither of them approached the other, and XW raised his gun without hesitation to drive away the indignant Liu Ye, and the atmosphere between them dropped to freezing point.
XW narrowed his eyes.
Neither of them had any reason to do that for the other.
Liu Ye clenched her fists and frowned deeply. She threw a knife at XW's feet. The sharp knife stabbed deeply into the cement ground next to XW. Then she turned and left without any reluctance.
Liu Ye was telling XW in this way that it wasn't that she couldn't hurt her, but that she didn't want to be forced to stand against her.
XW looked at Liu Ye's departing back. She neither put down the gun nor fired.
Her gaze shifted to the dagger, which was stuck in the concrete floor, standing still, like the back of someone leaving.
She dropped the gun and was left alone on the deserted street.
