Chapter 7 Chessboard Village

On the third day, Zhou Ming packed his luggage and prepared to go to the mission location.

The mission location this time was more remote than the town he was in now, in the suburbs outside the third wall.

He carried the equipment box downstairs and came to the street. He stood on the sidewalk waiting for the taxi to pass by, while looking around boredly.

A notice that appeared just this morning was posted on the telephone pole next to it. It said that the hotel where the strange phenomenon occurred a week ago has been demolished, and after the shops were rebuilt, it was confirmed that the strange phenomenon has completely disappeared.

Zhou Ming knew about this strange phenomenon. He heard about it yesterday when he was in the boxing gym. It seems that a week ago, a man and three women were found dead in a hotel. The four people were having fun having sex before they died, and they were still there at the moment before they died.

Maintain a playful attitude.

But the strange thing is that the condition of the body is very strange. The teacher at the boxing gym said that although the woman's body was not abnormal, in addition to the man's own reproductive organs, there were two extra reproductive organs on the chest and face, and

Placed separately...

Zhou Ming imagined that scene and felt that he was going crazy.

He felt even more stressed when he thought about living in this crazy world from now on.

The surrounding streets are full of announcements like this, all of which are news of the annihilation of some weirdos.

Across the street is a bookstore. On the glass door of the bookstore is a best-seller poster. The book on the poster is the work that won the Nobel Prize for Literature last year. The book is called "Old London Love Story".

The reason for winning the award is also written in the lower right corner of the poster: Ordinary, plain, the plot has no twists and turns, and the truth is revealed in the calm.

"Is this the Gag Order? It's really...the world is turned upside down." Zhou Ming sighed.

Regarding the gag order, Zhou Ming learned about it from the books left by the original owner.

It stipulates that no one is allowed to talk about weird topics, and it is strictly forbidden to spread all literary products that may trigger dangerous imaginations, including fantasy movies, horror novels, urban ghost stories, and any entertainment works that are not consistent with reality.

The novels and movies that people can see now are all daily animated movies and daily novels with no ups and downs in the plot and no drastic turning points in the plot. The content in them is boring and boring, and the social background is the normal social background before the emergence of weirdness.

If you think about it carefully, this kind of society is really ironic. Compared with fantasy novels, this real-life world is even more weird and weird.

In contrast, the calm and boring daily life has become an unattainable fantasy product... just like a dream.

"Didi!"

With a whistle, a taxi stopped in front of Zhou Ming, who had been raising his hands, and the driver rolled down the window.

"Young man? Where are you going?"

"Master, go to Qipan Village." Zhou Ming said as he got in the car.



Two hours later, Qipan Village arrived.

Zhou Ming stood on the hillside and looked down. At his feet was a row upon row of low mud houses. The earth-yellow house walls were made of some kind of mixture of mud and stones. They were as simple as those left before the industrial age.

remains.

That is Qipan Village, an old village that is no longer inhabited.

A little further away, there is a vast forest. The undulating green waves stretch for thousands of meters towards the city, forming an isolation zone between the countryside and the city. The rhythmic sea of ​​trees is shrouded in the dense morning mist, and the hazy mist above the forest

Hovering in the morning breeze, like a huge transparent veil, separating the modern city made of reinforced concrete in the distance from the low bungalow at Zhou Ming's feet.

Farther away, a towering iron wall blocked all vision. Under the leaden sky, it was like a cold knife, cutting the same world in half... That was the third wall.

"call--"

Zhou Ming sighed, put on his mask, and walked down the hillside.

Wearing a mask to perform tasks is common sense in this world, and it is also to follow the principle of confidentiality.

"Senior!"

"Senior, you are here!"

Huang Tao and Zhang Qian, who were standing at the entrance of the village, saw Zhou Ming from a distance and waved to him.

After the two received Zhou Ming's "teaching" in the boxing gym and kendo gym yesterday, their mentality completely changed. The fighting skills and swordsmanship displayed by the other party were not even like a student, they were completely as unfathomable as the teacher.

They will definitely benefit a lot from being able to perform tasks with Zhou Ming.

"You guys arrived so early."

Zhou Ming smiled slightly at the two of them, and then his eyes fell on several fully armed soldiers beside them.

The goggles on the soldier's helmet glowed in the sun, and his resolute face looked a little tired, but his posture remained upright.

These soldiers are responsible for preventing the monsters in the air-raid shelter from escaping. They are equipped with the most sophisticated and complete weapons. Everyone is well-trained and cooperates tacitly. Even if they face a large group of zombies, they can easily suppress them.

However, when faced with monsters, all these respectable soldiers can do is to prevent the monsters from escaping.

Because although ordinary weapons can cause damage to monsters, they are like slashing water with a knife. They can only cause temporary damage to monsters and cannot eliminate them.

The only things that can destroy weird things are things with magical power, such as the knives in the box behind Zhou Ming.

But not everyone can use these swords. They are actually a different kind of weirdness. If people who are not qualified enough use them, they will go crazy. Only people like Zhou Ming and others who have passed special tests and meet the requirements can use them.

"Now that everyone is here, we will stand by around the cordon and wait for your good news!" The soldier saluted Zhou Ming and the others.

Zhou Ming returned the courtesy and pointed in the direction of the woods.

"The air-raid shelter is in here, right?"

"Yes, be careful. They are very fast and very powerful. We have already sacrificed a team here." the soldier replied.

Zhou Ming nodded, turned around and led the way towards the forest.

"Oh, by the way! There may be a few ordinary civilians alive inside. If possible... I hope you can rescue them." The soldier behind him added.

Zhou Ming nodded again, leading Huang Tao and Zhang Qian into the woods without looking back.

"What tactics are you going to use for this mission?" Zhou Ming asked.

"Eh? Senior, have you thought clearly?"

"I brought you here this time to learn. It's no use just following me. You have to think for yourself." Zhou Ming found a reason at random, but in fact he just wanted to hear their opinions as a reference for this mission.

, after all, he is the real rookie.

"Well... they are very powerful, so be careful not to get hit by those people and try to dodge. In addition, they are also very fast. We should not be able to distance ourselves from them, so when we are close, we must watch the timing right.

Use jujitsu to subdue them!" Huang Tao said.

"I think so too, but there seem to be only five of them, and they don't have much combat IQ. Maybe they can be solved in a few head-on battles, and it's not that troublesome at all." Zhang Qian said.

Huang Tao and Zhang Qian both looked confident and not nervous at all. They probably thought this mission was easy.
