At this point, the incident in the whole town began. As for how this ability came about, Adachi couldn't tell. Xiaoxiao didn't have the slightest interest in his mental journey. She was not interested in understanding the thoughts of a sick guy. But judging from this guy's testimony, it doesn't seem that he was the one who started all of this, which is not surprising.

"Okay, Adachi Detective, murder pays for life, you should have no objection?"

"Wait a minute, I'm still useful!" Facing the black muzzle of the gun, Adachi panicked, what's the agreed use value? "If it is ability, there are so many substitutes here. Since you are not the original origin, then you naturally have no use." Xiao Xiao said indifferently, "The last question, when you are at the campsite, what do you have?" What are you doing?"

"No, no, I just went to Tiancheng Hotel to confirm whether you really left." Adachi's head was covered with cold sweat.

"Well, thank you for your cooperation." "Touch!" The full-power rifle bullet directly broke the guy's calf, "Japanese law can't sentence you to death, even if you are sentenced, there is a high probability that you will not die. Small punishment."

Xiaoxiao decided to leave here. Now it seems that the mastermind behind the scenes is not such a simple criminal, so she is ready to leave and "pay" if she stays any longer. She has no interest in that. her favorite.

The benefits have been taken,

Chapter 73 Doomsday World

Chapter 73

The dust rolls forward, blowing towards the face, and the warm sun hangs in the center of the zenith to welcome the visitors from another world. However, the dilapidated buildings and the wreckage of the city on the horizon, as well as the smell of fresh flesh and blood, are swarming The humanoid creatures that come here make people feel that this is not a good place for vacation.

The "jump cooling down for six months, maye" necklace was so hot that it could burn the skin. It seemed that something was hindered when leaving that world, which eventually caused a severe overload of the keepsake made by the Planeswalker.

"My lord, now is not the time to lament this shit!?"

"Well, Xiaoxiao glanced at the swarming tide, without saying a word, "Run! "Running up, spreading wings, transforming the dragon, and taking off in one go, and Zhaoxia finally found a better seat than the first-class cabin. She grabbed the small tail and was dragged into the sky, and the thing running on the road finally Only one lonesome bit, and a hoarse growl below.

"Wow, zombies [yeah, such things really exist."

"However, it seems to be different from the zombies I have seen." Xiaoxiao has seen similar things, but they are humans who have been infected by a virus and destroyed their brains. Their brains have been burned out, and only the instinct of eating is left. Under the high-speed metabolism, he crazily devours all food until his stomach bursts or he starves to death.

Generally speaking, the threat of this kind of zombies is very low, because even if you leave them alone, they will be burned to death bit by bit by yourself.

A crisis will end, and the action is not very fast, the essence is a living person, so although hitting the torso will not kill him immediately, he can still bite and move briefly under the control of reflex nerves, but he will still die in the end.

And the following things may be a bit different from the zombies Xiaoxiao has seen. They move quickly and don't seem to need to eat. At least the surrounding environment is impossible to feed such a large group of people. Then How did they survive?

Could it be a walking corpse made by magic? That thing is driven by magic power. It is really not afraid of physical attacks such as bullets. It needs to be completely chopped up and burned to destroy it. Otherwise, you can cut off all its limbs and break it off Like its head, its hands and feet move and attack people.

"Try throwing an anti-necromancer?" Xiaoxiao thought for a while, stretched her wings, and released the golden halo of "Guide: Harm the Undead". However, the chasing zombies below did not suffer any damage. Although the walking corpses made by necromantic magic have amazing physical resistance, they are vulnerable to spells that channel divine power and positive energy to kill. [Because the walking corpses transformed by ordinary civilians only have 4~8hp, really, the guiding power is gone in one go. 】

"It seems that it's not a product of magic. Are there any survivors in this world?" Xiaoxiao hovered in the sky, surrounded by a barren landscape, only city ruins submerged in dust and sparse vines. Extinct, at least a large-scale civilization has perished.

Xiao Xiao flew along the road, and there were city ruins one after another along the way. She was looking for water sources, because if there were human survivors, in this environment, they could only survive near water sources, and speaking of water sources, why hadn’t those zombies been killed? What about air drying?

Soaring towards the south, finally, the blue ocean appeared in front of it. It seemed that the marine life had not suffered much damage, and the cyanobacteria and green algae were still alive, so this planet still had oxygen for people to breathe.

The sea level has risen sharply, and part of the city has been submerged by sea water. Compared with the previous barren ruins, this place is more alive. Water allows vegetation to grow, and the remains of vegetation and buildings have become habitats for wild animals and birds. The unique beauty of the ruins after being decorated by nature arises spontaneously.

"Boom!" The dragon landed on the balcony of a skyscraper, startling flocks of birds, and a blue sheep jumped off the balcony nimbly, and quickly disappeared between the buildings along the rusted fire exits and air-conditioning units outside.

"It has been abandoned for at least 30 years." Xiaoxiao touched the scrap iron and moss vegetation on the ground. Human creations are not so easy to be corroded, but they are not as durable as imagined. Generally speaking, they have completely lost human maintenance and maintenance. , at most 20 years, the forces of nature will regain the upper hand.

"Forget it, let's eat first. It doesn't look like there are any zombies here." If there were any, these wild animals wouldn't live that long at all.

Skillfully light the fire, skillfully open the prepared bento box, then pour it into the metal lunch box, hang it on the campfire, pour a bottle of mineral water in the lower layer of the lunch box, and wait for the water vapor to heat the cold lunch box.

Flying is a huge burden for Xiaoxiao. Her dragon shape is still too small, and she doesn't have the plump high-energy fat like Huihui, and she doesn't generate dragon jade and oxide ditch, which means her flight range will be slow. It is very short, and the consumption of physical and magic power is simply an unbearable load.

Even if her dragon wings are more aerodynamic than Huihui's, she can greatly reduce physical exertion by gliding. After flying, she must eat immediately, otherwise she will be in a bad state of weakness.

The sun hangs in the sky as always, and the hot and dry air is urging to replenish water as soon as possible. The young hunter carefully took out a metal bottle, took a sip of water, and then took a little more in his mouth to ensure the basic Moisture supply and moist mouth.

"Rifle, good, there are three days left of food, time..." The hunter raised his wrist, and the mechanical watch showed that it is now 1:[-] pm, the hottest time, "Very good, those runners are replenishing their energy."

At this time, those monsters called "runners" will not wander around. They will leave the city and shady places to replenish energy under the scorching sun. As long as they are not too close, let them smell the smell of flesh and blood. nothing will happen.

The real test is in the afternoon, when the runners will return to the ruins of the city, waiting for opportunities to hunt prey or reproduce. However, as long as they don't get enough prey, the runners will not expand their population.

Instead, if they get enough prey, they will swarm and create a large number of "wandering swarms", becoming a natural disaster like locusts.

It has fast speed, hard skin, can endure considerable damage, and has the most basic intelligence. Although it can't make tools and traps, it can still perform simple coordination. It can be said to be a rather troublesome "mutant".

However, they still have weaknesses. First of all, in the early morning, the energy is at its lowest point. At this time, they will be very violent, but the corresponding physical strength will also be greatly weakened, and they are relatively difficult to be alarmed.

Secondly, bullets are still effective against them, and they are afraid of water, especially seawater with a lot of electrolytes. If they enter seawater, they will quickly dehydrate and lose their mobility. However, unless they are soaked for a long time, otherwise will not die from it.

Compared with other mutants, the Runner is already the best one to deal with, as long as you are careful not to make abnormal noises and excessive smells, and not to attract too large a cluster, rely on your hand Guns and crossbows can solve many problems.

The hunter packed up his supplies and left this temporary safe house. Hunting is his duty. This is a very dangerous but glorious job. Enter dangerous areas, collect supplies and food, and then bring them back to the shelter.

And as a hunter, he also has a symbol of his own status and privileges - an electric truck, which allows him not to carry his prey and a little supplies.

Walk dozens of kilometers back to the shelter.

Today is the hunter's second hunt. The food and fresh water he carried can only last for five days, and now it is the second day. The previous day was almost completely wasted due to a "Shadow Demon". Mutant creatures have chameleon-like camouflage, and they are rare monsters that come out to hunt at night and hide in the shadows to rest during the day.

Because they cannot replenish energy from the sun, they need a lot of prey. Compared with runners, these monsters are more intelligent and will not drive out their prey. They mainly inhabit such urban ruins with partial ecology.

It is one of the creatures that the hunters least want to encounter. In order to avoid the Shadow Demon, the hunters have wasted a whole day arranging ultraviolet traps, but they have done nothing.

Just when the hunter stepped out of the safe point, a wonderful, never-before-smelled strange fragrance penetrated into his nostrils like a stick attached to the bone, "It smells so good~" After instinctively sighing, the hunter suddenly felt There was a panic.

Fragrance, which will attract monsters with sensitive sense of smell, especially the smell of flames, and the source of the fragrance is already obvious. On the roof of the building in the distance, clouds of cooking smoke rise.

"Bastard! Where did this rookie come from!" He dared to light a fire outside the building. Once those runners were attracted, the hunting ground here would be completely scrapped, and it might even cause the runners to breed new offspring.

On the top of the building, the bonfire was burning. An unlucky blue sheep was caught by a small one and was hanging on the shelf to bled and peeled. Delicious and tender, but sprinkled with spices and smeared with oil, it is still a rare delicacy.

Oily smoke, blood gas, and the smell of bonfires spread across the city, attracting the attention of monsters that do not belong to humans. "My lord, something is coming." Zhaoxia quickly turned into a half-squat from her kneeling position, a posture that is easy to start and exert strength, "Om!" The dragon tooth knife turned into a stream of red-gold light, and a ferocious monster just fell down powerlessly. .

This is a monster that looks a bit like a frog, with a human head, no eyes, and only a big mouth that reaches near the ears, full of meat-eating sharp teeth, the ears are as huge as a bat, and there is a spherical bump on the nose, and the whole body Hairless, covered with a thick layer of skin that seems to change color with the environment.

"It looks like it can't be eaten." A little poked the biological skin on the ground, a rubbery texture, which made people lose any appetite.

"It seems that there are no more. This guy climbed up along the outer wall." Zhaoxia sensed the surroundings, but found no trace of other monsters.

"Throw it away, don't put it here." The reason why Xiaoxiao didn't do anything was because she was holding the barbecue grill with both hands, and she couldn't free her hands at all.

"Yes, my lord." Zhaoxia grabbed one of the monster's feet and threw the creature from the roof, and it landed on the street full of rusted vehicles with a loud noise.

"This is..." The hunter looked at the monster in front of him with a surprised expression on his face. It was an adult shadow demon, and the scar on its throat showed that the person who killed it had extremely exquisite skills and oooooooo arm strength.

Because the shadow demon's thick skin is comparable to bulletproof fibers, the iron-pipe rifle in his hand can break the skin at most, and it is difficult to deal with this monster with a knife.

The pattern is that a group of people hold the creature with spears, and then throw torches on them.

No matter what kind of mutants they are, flames are their biggest weakness. They don't need too much water because every cell in their body is filled with thick "jade oil". This kind of emerald-colored oil can protect them Its body will not be dried by the sun, and at the same time, it can also obtain energy from the sun and store it, but, on the other hand, it is also very flammable.

Once it is lit, it is a burning torch, but there are a lot of runners, and the burning point of the green oil is not low. The flame fence is okay for small groups of runners, but large groups of runners are not afraid of this kind of defense at all. measure.

Not to mention that there are some other mutants. Although they are all afraid of flames, the degree of this fear is also different. Some even have a layer of fire-resistant carapace on the outside. Only by breaking the carapace can they be ignited and destroyed.

If you want to use a knife to deal with these monsters, the strength of the knife wielder must be quite high, and the weapon must also be a very sharp sword. Hunters can't imagine what kind of weapon it is, and it may only be found in those large places in the north-central region. equipped?

For him who lives on the southeast coast, he is not very clear about the situation there, but occasionally heard from passing travelers that there are still towns in the north-central that have not been destroyed, and the people there can still produce and manufacture some industrial products.

However, the goods of these traveling merchants are no better than the things they produce from the scraps in the ruins. Maybe that is just a rumor?But, now, the fact is that a Shadow Fiend was killed with a knife, and the hunter was a little hesitant and confused, not knowing whether he should go up and say hello to the other party.

I heard that in some places in the north, scavengers, bandits, and survivors often fight, but here, most of the survivors' settlements maintain a peaceful state.

Compared to their number, the food in the city ruins and oasis is barely enough.

Everyone is an essential producer—or, if someone kills someone in the settlement, it means reducing a labor force, and it is likely that the entire settlement will perish.

And similarly, there are more serious things. Small-scale intermarriage will lead to the birth of a large number of deformed children and freaks, and will waste a lot of resources and food. After all, pregnant women need at least 5 to 6 months to do nothing. alive, and no one knows whether the child is healthy or deformed until it is born.

The solution is to intermarry with other settlements, or vaccinate those travelers and traveling merchants to ensure that there will be no consequences of inbreeding.

All in all, the survivor settlements and survivors on the southeast coast that have degenerated to a life form that is close to primitive tribes generally have some kindness towards strangers, and there are not so many intrigues—of course, neither will those outsiders Deliberately destroying this fragile ecology—you know, in the post-apocalyptic world, a settlement more or less means a safe supply point and a reliable guide, neither a businessman nor a robber will do such a thing.

No one wants to sleep in the wilderness, it's too dangerous, of course, the most important thing is that these settlements generally don't have much oil and water, and their output is just enough for themselves

Consumption, but hunting and fighting all year round, and somewhat combat effectiveness, if a conflict occurs, it is generally not worth the loss.

Chapter 74 Settlements

Chapter 74

The hunter cautiously went up the heavily rusted stairs. He didn't hide his footsteps too much. This was to give the other party a warning time and to avoid being regarded as a hostile attacker.

The crumbling iron plate made a creaking sound under his feet, as if it would break and fall in the next second. The hunter jumped over the fault zone deftly and nimbly, hooked the window frame above his head and moved up like an ape, and finally stopped at In front of an open door.

"I have no malice" the hunter said while pushing open the door. Behind the door was a bonfire, and the fresh and tender mutton was dripping with fat, exuding a mouth-watering smell.

0

"I, my lord, is a human [ye."

"I knew it a long time ago." Xiaoxiao held a handful of meat skewers in one hand, stared at the jumping flames, without even raising his eyelids, this guy didn't feel any threat to himself.

"Where do you come from? Are you going to the stone forest in the east?" the hunter asked curiously, raising his hands to show that he had no intention of attacking.

Occasionally people who pass by are going to the stone forest area to the east. It is said that there used to be the capital of the country that ruled this land, and there are many useful things left.

But that's also where the greatest number of runners and monsters of all kinds are in the tens of thousands, and only the luckiest and strongest team can make it out with the loot unscathed,

And this naturally formed a small camp.

Merchants buy their trophies, and the brave need to replenish their supplies, but all of these need to be done in winter. At that time, the most runners will be relatively slow, and the low temperature makes it difficult for them to catch up with humans running at full speed.

"Ah, I don't know about this question. It's the first time I've come to this place. Is there any human settlements nearby?" Xiaoxiao didn't have any interest in spending the night in ruins full of moss and the smell of corpses. She planned to find a A place to settle down and get through the long layover of the next six months.

"Yes, our refuge is just 30 kilometers away." The hunter revealed the location of the settlement without hesitation. There is nothing to keep secret, and everyone on this road knows about it.

"Want to eat?" Xiaoxiao pointed to the grilled mutton. The hunter shook his head and refused. He was willing to tell the location of the settlement because every such traveler and businessman is beneficial to the settlement. However, He will not eat food from strangers.

Strangers are unlikely to have any malice towards the only supply point in the desert, but it’s hard to say when it’s magnified to an individual. What if after eating it, he would be collared and turned into a slave when he woke up? Oops, and this kind of thing is not uncommon.

"Forget it." Xiaoxiao stuffed the mutton into his mouth, chewed it quickly and swallowed it. The hunter silently looked at the two strangers. They were both very young women with a short stature and no sense of strength. The skin is very smooth, whiter than the salt I have ever seen, even the "goods" of the merchants who are said to come from the northern valley are not so white and tender.

It can be seen that they have not been tortured by the scorching sun and dust, but how did they come here?Did it come across the sea?seaside

Shipwrecks are also the favorite of scavengers. There are no monsters and rich supplies, but they are far away from the mainland, and the cabins on the ship cannot be cut with the tools of ordinary scavengers.

However, those ships are no longer able to operate, it is not that no one has thought of crossing the sea to a new world without monsters and famine, however, this is just a dream.

"Then let's go!" After eating the mutton, he stepped on the bonfire and said, "Take me to see your settlement."

"I still need to hunt." The settlements welcome guests very much, but hunters have their own persistence and responsibilities.

"Hunting? Oh~" Xiao Xiao nodded, "To tell you the truth, I am also a hunter, especially good at hunting huge monsters."

"Huh?" The hunter tilted his head, not quite understanding the meaning of what she said at this time.Taking a step forward, a black shadow rises from the building, and the wind blows the girl's hair, making a hunting sound. The girl turns around, and as if by magic, a huge hunting bow unfolds in the palm of her hand, and the black winged monster shoots at the girl on the top of the building. The three jumped down.

"Buzz!" The bowstring vibrated the air, and the short spear-like arrow pierced through the thick fur. This demon-like monster fell to the roof of the building, crushing a piece of overgrown bushes. "Touch!" The girl stomped On its head, hold the arrow backwards and pull it out forcefully, bringing up a cloud of light green blood, which soon turned into a group of dark purple stains under the sun.

"Can I eat it?"

"No, I can't." The hunter was dumbfounded. This is a "gargoyle", a monster that only lives in urban ruins and high-rise buildings. It can fly. Ordinary bullets can't penetrate them. Although they don't fly fast or high, they rely more on buildings. The high gliding and pouncing are the biggest threat to hunters, even for those teams with vehicle-mounted machine guns.
