On the city streets at midnight, Qingchen pulled Zhang Mengqian to a quick stop.
Zhang Mengqian held his breath. He could hear a group of rats marching ahead, only about twenty meters away from them.
There were white dead bones scattered on the road, piled one on top of the other.
The flowing blood dyes the road red.
This is the sixth district, which has been completely occupied by the rats. The residents of the fifth district have been killed and injured. The rats carry their flesh and blood underground to support the new cubs in the group.
The streets that should have been bustling and bustling were now completely silent, and even the wailing could hardly be heard.
Absolutely dead.
Zhang Mengqian asked with a trembling voice: "Boss, who did this?"
Qingchen sighed: "The God's Generation Consortium."
At this time, Zhang Mengqian saw several young human skeletons. He slowly clenched his fists: "Boss, I want to kill all the people in the God Generation Consortium. They don't care about other people's lives at all!"
Qingchen said expressionlessly: "Then you have to become stronger."
He did not choose to kill the rats because there were too many of them.
Just as he and Zheng Yuandong guessed, when you see a cockroach at home, it means that hundreds of cockroaches have multiplied in the dark corners.
When you see two to three thousand rats running on the ground in the city, there may already be two to three million in the dark sewers.
This is a very terrifying number. Even if a demigod is exhausted here, he may not be able to kill all the rats.
Therefore, Qingchen cannot be reckless. He must wait for the opportunity quietly, find out the location of the Rat King, and go to behead him.
The Rat King is dead. At least the rats will not attack humans in a planned manner like an army. Their instinct will make them afraid of fire and guns again.
As long as the Rat King doesn't die, Qingchen's life won't be enough for the rats.
"Boss, where are we going now?" Zhang Mengqian asked.
"Look for a clue," Qingchen said calmly: "I want to find the widow of a neurotoxin expert and find some clues from her. According to the latest information, she just moved to the fourth district not long ago."
"Don't we need to join your people? Now that the city is cut off from power and communications, can they cope with it on their own?" Zhang Mengqian was curious.
"No need, the command work that needs to be done has been done before the time travel," Qingchen said.
Qingchen arranged everything so that he could continue to look for the clues he wanted.
Zhang Mengqian was a little envious of his status as a time walker. It turned out that Qingchen had done so many things in a certain time dimension that he didn't know about.
"Walk."
The two started moving quickly again. As they were walking, a mouse suddenly pounced on Qingchen from the darkness. Its nails were broken due to digging into the concrete in the lower third area, but they were still extremely sharp.
Before it could pounce, when it was about twenty centimeters away, as if static electricity was generated on the human body in autumn and winter, a very thin arc struck it on the forehead.
At this time, Qingchen was like an electric hedgehog. No mouse could silently attack him and not die.
The mouse that was originally showing its teeth and claws suddenly became stiff and fell straight to the ground.
However, Qingchen controlled the power of thunder to an extremely fine level, just enough to penetrate the mouse's life without consuming any more.
There are too many rats. From now on, he must plan carefully and never waste the power in his body.
At this time, several more mice jumped out of the darkness.
Qingchen originally planned to electrocute them all, but he stopped them and left one alive.
He flicked the mouse away with a snap of his fingers, and then stared coldly, as if to verify something.
There are two possibilities now. One is that the rats have not yet been controlled by Kamishiro Qianchi.
Even the taboo creature Ace-022 Queen Ant may not be able to successfully control this group easily. After all, the more powerful the taboo creature is, the more restrictions it has.
In this way, the rat tide disaster has not yet reached its worst point.
For the time being, they are just following their instincts of eating and reproducing.
Another possibility is that Kamishiro Chichi has long since hid in the city in his new appearance after taking over his body, and then completed his control over the Rat King.
After all, only this bitch knows the specific location of the demigod body.
Qingchen needed a lot of information to prove the location of the Rat King, but the other party could find the Rat King's traces more easily.
If the current situation is the latter: Kamishiro Chiaki has taken control of the Rat King and launched a disaster for the entire city, that would be the worst case scenario.
At this time, the rats will definitely help Kamishiro Chiaki search for his traces and kill him, the future knight leader.
But now, the mouse doesn't know him.
Qingchen didn't kill it, he turned around and left.
As he advanced, he repeatedly checked the environment, and no army of rats suddenly came to surround him. Qingchen was certain that there was a 90% chance that the rats were not controlled by Kamidai Chiaki.
This is a good thing.
…
…
The two people stopped and walked, relying on their hearing to avoid the marching tracks of the rats, and barely approached the fourth area.
The noisy crowd became louder and louder.
Wails also came from the darkness in the fourth area from time to time.
"It seems that the rats have just begun to attack the fourth area," Qingchen said calmly: "We can't wait any longer. Let's go directly through the crowd. I will find Yuan Yang's widow in Heping Building and leave."
As he spoke, Qingchen and Zhang Mengqian started to speed up. Fortunately, the little boy had eaten nine longevity fruits, otherwise he would have been exhausted just from walking for a long time.
As soon as they entered the fourth district, they saw crowds of people running out of various bars, boxing gyms, and strip clubs.
A voluptuous woman wearing high heels broke her heels while running, and there were still two mice hanging around her neck, biting the flesh on the back of her neck.
A fat man just ran out the door, but was covered by rats, and then his huge body was slowly pulled back to the bar.
A middle-aged man was dressed neatly, and there were two bodyguards guarding the front and back. In order to open a path, they left quickly and even pushed the middle-aged woman in front of them to the ground.
Everything in front of me is like purgatory on earth.
Scenes of bloody scenes, so sudden and violent, were engraved in Qingchen's mind and could never be erased. This was the first time that he hated his unparalleled memory ability so much.
He can never forget it.
Qingchen walked through the crowd calmly, trying to pretend that he didn't see what happened to those people.
He must hurry up and find Yuan Yang's widow and illegitimate son, otherwise if the other party dies, this clue will be cut off.
Shadow has been looking for clues for a century, and the only omission left was accidentally discovered by Hu's intelligence agency. If Qingchen misses it again, the truth of that period of history may really be buried.
"Let's go quickly," Qingchen whispered. As he spoke, he electrocuted the rats that came near the two of them.
But at this moment, when Qingchen looked up, he suddenly saw a little girl standing in the middle of the street. She was rubbing her eyes with her hands and crying loudly. Her parents didn't know where they were.
The adults were running back and forth around her, but she was the only one who stayed there, calling her parents.
No one went to save her, everyone was too busy taking care of themselves.
Qingchen's pace slowly slowed down, and people kept dying on the street. He was safe and sound because of his strength.
But he turned around and looked around. Four or five children could no longer find their parents. An old man selling late-night snacks in the fourth district was also pushed to the ground. Women screamed and wailed. Even a rich man who came to watch a boxing match was arrested along with his bodyguards.
Surrounded by rats.
The Fourth District is the most prosperous and lively place in the federal city. Yesterday it was a bustling place, but today it is a living hell.
It's so painful.
To care or not to care?
Forget it, he can't take these people to find Yuan Yang's widow. If he doesn't leave the fourth area as soon as possible, everyone will die together. Therefore, he must leave with these people and give up searching for clues.
If he doesn't care, these people will die immediately in front of him.
Qingchen stood on the street blankly.
But he has to help his brother and sister-in-law find the real murderer and take revenge. Time is already too late. Maybe the rats have surrounded the building where Yuan Yang's widow lives. Maybe the other party has been attacked by the rats now...
It's too late.
Obviously he has done so much homework, hard work, and detailed plans in the outer world. He just hopes that after he comes to the other world, he can give himself some time and stop thinking about so many people and so many things and be selfish for his own sake.
The brother is looking for a clue and the truth.
However, even if he did everything, he still had to face a choice.
He made plans for everyone, but he still couldn't complete his own plans with peace of mind.
The time walkers in the academy are working hard to travel through the city, trying to reach the Lower Third District.
Kunlun members are traveling to the most dangerous places in District 5.
Family members are guarding the passage of life.
Everyone is working hard for the hope of survival.
Qingchen lowered his head, while Zhang Mengqian remained silent.
Brother, I'm sorry.
"Mengqian, let's not look for clues anymore," Qingchen whispered, "Save people."
He suddenly looked back and saw the Peace Building 600 meters away, right in front of him.
For Qingchen, 600 meters is an absolute sight. Black sniper bullets can arrive in an instant. He used to think 600 meters was too close, but now he feels 600 meters is too far.
"Save people! Mengqian, go and gather all the children first!" Qingchen shouted: "Everyone on the street is approaching me, I will take you out!
"Got it!" Zhang Mengqian ran out quickly. He picked up the dazed and crying children on the street and ran to Qingchen together.
He saw his boss standing on the long street, with golden light shining from the depths of his pupils.
At a certain moment, Zhang Mengqian suddenly felt a little proud. This was the person he wanted to follow.
In an instant, sixteen lightning bolts burst out in a zigzag manner, and the surrounding rats chasing each other from the bar were immediately scorched and penetrated!
When hundreds of people still alive on the street saw this scene, they rushed over as if they were grabbing a life-saving straw.
"Boss, I brought them all back," Zhang Mengqian shouted. As he spoke, this little boy, who was not very old himself, relied on the effect of the Immortal Heaven to carry the two little girls on his shoulders, followed by two more
A relatively strong little boy.
Qingchen took a deep breath and said: "Kill out!"
…
Sorry, I feel a bit unwell today. I only have 8,000 words.
