Passing through the intersection into the city, you will see a circular square.
Compared with other cities, the remote space city has excellent greening.
At the roundabout entering the city, a metal statue more than six meters high is carved with an astronaut raising his hands in salute.
Made of brass, the huge space helmet looked like a bare sarcoma in the dark.
There are overgrown weeds, and the surrounding circular flowerpot is filled with green vegetation as high as a person.
There are red or purple flowers mixed among the shrubs and grasses, artificially arranged to form propaganda slogans.
However, after being left untouched for a long time, the original slogan has been somewhat deformed, just like a child's random graffiti.
It can be vaguely seen that it seems to be written "Welcome to Space City"
Steady footsteps echoed.
Silence, deathly silence.
As it goes deeper and deeper.
The buildings standing everywhere seemed like silent giants watching the three of them silently.
Lin An, who was walking in the front, with a mental barrier spreading out all over his body, seemed to be holding up a blue energy ball, and a faint light shone all over his body.
The mechanical compass floats in front of you, and the eye of reality opens.
Under the triple detection method.
Compared with ordinary awakened people, Lin An has the ability to detect almost everything, collect information, and scan every plant and tree around him.
"Captain Lin, this ghost place is a little too quiet."
Walking behind Lin An, Xiong Hanzi, perhaps affected by the environment, rubbed his belly, looked around and whispered:
"There is nothing, not even bones or dregs"
"Where did you say all the dead people went?"
I'm used to facing a lot of living corpses when I enter a city, and the streets are littered with corpses.
Along the way, he didn't even see a bird feather, and he felt a little uncomfortable for a while.
Clean, so clean
Even he was obviously aware of the abnormality here.
Lin An, who was walking at the front, nodded calmly, the silver light representing his skills flashing in his eyes.
That's right.
Not only are there no corpses or zombies in the entire city.
Not even bugs or mice.
No matter whether it was on the ground or underground pipes, the mental power he released found no trace of any living creatures.
The entire city is like a tomb made of cement and steel bars.
If it weren't for the many tire marks on the ground, he even doubted whether the city had been abandoned for more than ten years.
Increased vigilance.
As he gradually went deeper into the city, Lin An also continued to summarize and analyze the information he saw.
The anomaly here is unlikely to be caused by the mutant.
Even a third-level mutant cannot eat up the entire city.
Although those monsters are extremely bloodthirsty and will eat most of the creatures they see, under normal circumstances, they will not even eat insects, flies, and mice.
The mutants mainly feed on humans.
If it was a supernatural incident, they would have already entered the range where the corpse disappeared, and logically they would have encountered something.
But until now, Little Mo Ling has not felt any breath of the undead.
Memes, or special events?
"Lin An, look at that!"
"There are signs of being dragged away!"
Hear the reputation and go.
Following the direction of Mo Ling's finger, a human-shaped gap was opened on the glass curtain wall of a shop facing the street, and the dragged blood traces crawled along the road in another direction deep into the city.
On the pavement, pairs of bloody palm prints were vaguely visible.
Unlike the traces outside the city that have been buried for too long, the bloodstains in these souvenir shops all point in the same direction.
Left of center?
Lin An looked carefully.
Although the blood stains rubbed on the cement have been diluted by the rain, the scraped flesh scraped from the cracks in the rocks is enough to show the despair of the person being dragged.
Past
To the west?
Lin An's eyes moved slightly, and he subconsciously looked at the buildings to the west of the central statue.
The most conspicuous one is a lecture auditorium, with a red star hanging high above the auditorium.
"Go! Come closer!"
After giving the order, Lin An took Zhang Tie straight to the auditorium.
If there's any problem, it's probably there
""
A slight murmur penetrated his ears.
The closer you get, the clearer it becomes.
Immediately after, Xiong Hanzi held Lingchi Zhe, who was half a man tall, in his hand and asked Lin An hesitantly:
"Captain Lin, someone seems to be talking."
The speed increased and he nodded.
Lin An's eyes were fixed on the closed auditorium. The steps under the heavy door showed a thick dark red color.
He heard it too.
The voice was like a dying old man, forced out of his throat, intermittently.
"Hungry"
"Hungry!!!"
Getting closer and closer.
As the distance quickly shortened, the sounds in the auditorium gradually became clearer.
A feeble and longing growl came from the auditorium, which was creepy in the middle of the night.
Is there anyone alive?
His expression wrinkled slightly, and his mental power spread rapidly.
After a while, Lin An's eyes gradually became serious.
The closer you get, the clearer your perception becomes.
So stinky
A strong putrid smell permeated the air, like a poisonous miasma, wrapping around the outside of the auditorium.
With the familiar smell, Lin An was keenly aware that this smell came from the fermentation of corpses.
Shrouded in spiritual power, the existence in the auditorium was like a smoldering fire, lying motionless in it.
Except for the "fire" and signs of life, there are no signs of life in other directions.
Without hesitation.
After setting up a mental barrier again to cover up their aura, the two of them approached the brass door in a very short time.
It can be seen that this should be an auditorium to promote patriotic education. A large number of signboards such as the Demonstration Base are hung on the outer wall of the auditorium.
"Hungry"
"Hungry!!!!"
The dissatisfied growls grew louder and louder.
Standing outside the door, Lin An's eyes seemed to be able to see through the door, and his mental power was constantly detecting it.
Behind him, Zhang Tie held up Ling Chi, ready to rush in at any time.
The thing in question is inside!
The painful low roars made his scalp feel numb.
What the hell, it keeps shouting
Taking a deep breath, Zhang Tie, under Lin An's instructions, slowly pushed the brass door open to create a gap.
The result of the mental power exploration showed that the owner of the voice did not have any psychic fluctuations. For a while, Lin An could only force the other party to treat him as some kind of special existence.
"Squeak"
The heavy brass door was pushed open, revealing a glimpse.
Lin An looked intently, and in the empty auditorium, a dull flesh color occupied most of his field of vision.
This is
insect!?
At the same time, waves of low roars and cries of hunger entered my ears as the door opened.
"Hungry"
"Hungry!!"
In the center of the auditorium, a giant pink insect like a maggot was seen squirming.
His back was to the three of them.
It was continuously licking and swallowing a section of the arm.
The skin and flesh on the highly rotten arm were like marinated chicken skin, and it was stuck in the mouth.
"Bliss"
Chewing greedily, the giant worm, as tender as a baby, took the skin into his mouth and gnawed on the bones again.
"Hungry"
After the dissatisfied growl sounded again, Zhang Tie, who was hiding behind the door, couldn't help but poke his head to see clearly.
After a moment, his face turned ugly.
At a glance, the white area where the mealworms lie is a mountain of human bones.
The bones were as white as if they had been carefully removed, and they were smooth and neat, with not a trace of muscle visible.
"Hungry!!"
In an instant.
The insects that were licking the corpse seemed to have noticed their prying eyes.
The giant insect suddenly shrank and squirmed, and its head that had been facing away from them suddenly turned around.
