Chapter 7 Difficult Choices The temptation before returning?
() When Felicia and the others came out of the computer room, they happened to see Zhang Jie and the others coming towards them.
Looking at the four people coming up to him, Matthew Addison was about to explain his next action to them, but he didn't want Zhang Jie to swallow his words.
"The four of us stay."
"Why? We don't have much time now. I don't have time to joke with you. There are zombies everywhere here. Do you want to stay here to die?"
Matthew was a little unhappy and worried. After all, after the battle, they could be considered comrades-in-arms.
There is a saying that the strongest friendship is cultivated on the battlefield.
Zhang Jie took a long puff of cigarette, dropped the cigarette butt and said seriously:
"I'm not kidding, what I mean is that we stay here and guard here. I think you also know that these few of them have the physical fitness of ordinary citizens. In the next long-distance escape, the possibility of them falling behind is very high. Instead of accepting it,
With such a huge possibility of failure, it is better to stay here for safety."
Matthew was silent, and looked at Zheng Zha, who seemed to have a determined attitude, and still planned to fight for it.
"No, I can't just watch my teammates die! Remember, you are also my teammates now, understand? My order is to act immediately, let's get out of here!"
Zhang Jie was stunned for a moment, lowered his head and said nothing.
Zhan Lan stood up at this time and said: "Captain, everyone, you all know our physical strength. It is impossible for us to keep up with your pace if we escape all the way. Rather than turning into those zombie monsters, Captain doesn't think it's better for us to
Staying here quietly and waiting for the follow-up rescue team that may arrive is the only way for us to survive, isn't it? If the captain still insists on letting us follow him to die, then I have nothing to say. "
Matthew Addison was silent for a long time, and then he said sadly: "I understand... Kaplan, open the defense system of the laser channel, and you will stay in the Flame Queen's computer room, which is the most
A safe place...wait quietly, if we are not dead yet, we will report your situation to the company...don't die."
He turned around and looked at Felicia, who had been standing behind them without answering since just now, obviously wanting to know her plan.
Felicia looked at Matthew, then at Zhang Jie and the others, but didn't answer for a while.
Of course she also wanted to follow Matthew and the others out, not just to earn reward points, but also because she didn't want Matthew and the others to die.
The inertia of the plot is quite large. Matthew and the others who were supposed to have died earlier are still alive at this time, so the world will definitely make some arrangements to bring the deviated plot back to its original path. Except for Alice, who will definitely survive.
Otherwise, everyone else will most likely die here.
She didn't want to, nor was she willing to watch these comrades who were rescued by her and experienced life and death with her die in vain.
Unlike Zheng Zha and others, she knows that the people in this world are real, they can cry and laugh, and are not just NPCs, even if there is a plot behind them, or "history" is guiding their destiny.
At this time, she was just a little girl, and even Sephiroth had a gentleness from the heart before going crazy, making her think that she couldn't do this life that she could obviously save.
But she had to make a choice. It was unwise to reveal her trump card when she was still very weak. It would not only attract the attention of the semi-leader Zhang Jie, but also attract the envy, jealousy and hatred of Zheng Zha and the others.
Zhang Jie didn’t say anything anymore. Even though they were drinking and chatting together before, he could kill Zhan Lan behind his back.
Zheng Zha, as a white-collar elite who has become a supervisor in the company, it is impossible for him to have any scheming ideas. Although he does have a kind heart, wouldn't he be tempted in the face of interests?
As a novel writer, Zhan Lan is good at figuring out other people's thoughts and taking advantage of her own advantages. This has tied herself to Zheng Zha. The more beautiful a woman is, the more terrifying she is. This is a wise saying!
As for Li Xiaoyi, this poor kid who absolutely wants to get lunch in the second part can't hide his a** at all.
What's more, at the laser channel, several of the magic she used when fishing in troubled waters were very mana-consuming. When she was fighting the zombie dogs, she felt a little tired. Although she has replenished some energy now, her magic power is actually
Is it so easy to recover?
The so-called magic power is a kind of energy transformed from spiritual power and vitality, which can nourish the soul and body and be used to perform spells or attacks.
The spiritual energy in the real world has almost been exhausted. Except for some deep mountains and wild forests, which are still abundant, there is almost none in the city, and the spiritual energy that is powerful is also less, not to mention the emergence of various genetically modified and modified foods.
Practitioners mainly rely on obtaining energy from food to restore and increase their magic power, and then transform it through meditation or practice. Over time, they can achieve positive results.
There is also a shortcut, which is to kill, especially killing. Because people have rich spiritual activities, their soul power is much stronger than that of other creatures. Killing one person and absorbing it is worth a few months of ordinary hard training! But this kind of
The world will hate your method, and you might choke to death when you take a sip of water someday.
Felicia's training was quite satisfactory, and she had killed a few evil people, but there was no need to even think about such an outrageous behavior as soul-eating.
*******************************
"I'll stay."
The girl's faint voice came, and her heart wavered for a long time before she finally made up her mind.
"Hey, forget it."
Matthew was a little disappointed and sighed. To be honest, he really liked this girl who was about the same age as his daughter, but now he had to leave Da in this dangerous place.
Felicia followed Zhang Jie into the Flame Queen's computer room. Then Kaplan turned on the defense system of the laser channel. The lights on both sides of the channel lit up again. Zheng Zha and the four looked out from the glass opening of the steel door.
Go, the mercenaries also looked at the steel gate at the other end of the passage, and both sides saw a kind of pity in each other's eyes.
Felicia silently commented on the departing mercenaries. Just now, she used her remaining magic power to give each of them (except Ryan) a focus and blessing, which could overdraw their physical strength.
During this period of time, they can concentrate without getting tired, the pain level will be reduced by one level, and the cell vitality will be temporarily increased.
"I can only do so much for you. May God bless you."
Felicia silently blessed them and hoped that they could survive the disaster.
Then Felicia, whose magic power was close to zero, staggered to the end and rested against the wall.
For a cultivator, exhausting magic power is quite dangerous. Not only will the body be weak and exhausted, but in severe cases it will also affect the source of the spirit.
At the door, after seeing the mercenaries leaving the sewer, Zhan Lan said with a smile: "Did you see it? Their eyes are full of pity. I really don't know what their expressions will be when facing the crawlers."
Felicia opened her eyes and looked at Zhan Lan who was making sarcastic remarks with some helplessness.
Mercy? The Lord God will make you so leisurely. Even if the world does not respond, the Lord God can easily lead a few crawlers to guide such brainless things. Even she can do it easily, let alone the Lord God!
Felicia thought with a bit of a smile, I won't help when the creepers come, let's see what you do.
When Felicia was in a daze again, Zhang Jie took advantage of his free time to tell Zheng Zha and the others about the exchangeable items in the Lord God's Space. The two men were even more excited when he mentioned that women could be created.
And Zheng Zha, who had received generous reward points and a B-level branch line in the laser channel, was already imagining how he would kill everyone.
Next, Zhang Jie recounted his experience in A Nightmare on Elm Street, and it was unknown whether it was the spiritual induction he used. Everyone was startled by the strange atmosphere.
As they talked more and more excitedly, a creaking sound from outside the passage startled them.
Zhang Jie stood up abruptly, rushed to the steel gate and looked out. He was so frightened that the other three people followed him. However, when they looked through the glass door, there were only bright lights in the passage.
There is nothing else.
Felicia didn't move forward, she turned around calmly and asked.
"Queen of Fire, please tell me what happened outside the control room?"
A little girl's voice suddenly rang in the room: "Two crawlers are attacking the outermost door. The door can remain blocked for forty seconds."
Zhang Jie immediately yelled: "M, I knew it was not that simple! Those crawlers must have smelled us. The outer door couldn't stop them at all. Fortunately, we hid here. I don't know what those two
How long can this gate hold up?" After saying that, he raised his watch and looked at it carefully.
Zheng Zha and others also looked at their watches. The countdown displayed on it was still seventeen minutes away. They didn't know if the three gates and the laser defense channel could stop these crawlers. It was impossible to hurt them with the weapons in their hands.
This powerful mutated creature.
Zheng Zha, who did not want to die, immediately teamed up with Zhan Lan to threaten the Red Queen, who looked like a little girl, and they succeeded in deceiving the Red Queen into agreeing to use the laser channel to kill the crawler.
But just when they breathed a sigh of relief, a loud noise came from outside the passage, and the crawler's sharp and huge claws tore apart a steel plate of more than ten centimeters.
Two crawlers got into the passage, and their ferocious appearance appeared in front of everyone.
It has a huge body of several meters, covered with red muscles. It has no eyes, and its tongue can extend to more than one meter in length. Its two huge front paws have evolved extremely and turned into a pair of huge claws that cannot be described in words.
As hard as steel, maybe even harder!
Seeing the creeper swooping over, Zheng Zha and the others were so frightened that they roared crazily.
At the critical moment, there was a flash of light in the passage, and a thin laser line quickly formed and rushed towards the two crawlers.
With two soft sounds, the laser line disappeared, and the two crawlers became completely silent. Slowly, their huge bodies split from the middle, and finally their upper and lower bodies broke into two pieces.
Several people exhaled at the same time. Zhang Jie sat down on the ground and took out a few cigarettes. Not only did he throw one to Zheng Zha, he also threw one to Li Xiaoyi, which made him a little flattered, but when he saw Feili
Qian Ya's indifferent look made him feel a little puzzled. Was this little girl frightened or overly stunned? Why was there no movement at all?
He lit the cigarette and took a deep breath and said: "Do you know what fright and terror are? I have experienced the situation just now many times, three times in horror movies, and I don't know how I survived... Damn it! This
What's the matter! This is really not a place where people should be!"
Zheng Zha and Zhan Lan looked at each other and smiled bitterly. At the moment when the creeper jumped over, their reactions were even worse than Zhang Jie's. In addition to being covered in sweat, their bodies were shaking so much that they could hardly even stand. Fortunately, this
The laser defense system saved their lives, otherwise they would have lost their chance to escape.
"Keep waiting, this laser defense system is good, we should be able to..."
Before Zhang Jie finished speaking, the entire computer room suddenly went dark. Except for Felicia, who was at ease, the other four people were stunned for a moment. Then they jumped up quickly and rushed to the glass door of the door to look out.
Go, sure enough, the laser channel outside has also become dark, and the entire computer room has lost power.
"R! What a plot! How could I forget this plot? Do you all still remember this? What a plot!" Zhang Jie kicked the steel door fiercely and roared crazily.
Felicia naturally knew the plot, but she didn't say anything. While the others were panicking, she quietly removed the red motherboard from the back, stuffed it into her bag, and then continued to watch Zheng Zha and the others messing around.
.
It is indeed nonsense. At this time, you are still shouting and making such a loud noise. Don't you think the creeper won't come?
Gradually, the four of them finally calmed down. They knew that the slightest sound now might attract the crawlers, so except for the sound of breathing and heartbeat, no one dared to say another word. Even so, here
In the quiet darkness, the breathing sounds of the four people were still clearly audible.
Zhang Jie turned around and looked at Felicia, who was still looking like a sculpture. He curled his lips in distress, "What is this! Are you watching our jokes???"
I don’t know how long it took, but a heavy breathing sound gradually came from the darkness, and at the same time there was the sound of steel being rubbed. Even without looking, you could tell that a crawler was coming outside.
Zheng Zha asked Zhan Lan in a low voice: "How long is it? How long is the time on the watch?"
Zhan Lan replied: "I don't know, it's so dark that no one can see...it's probably a few minutes away."
To be precise, there was one minute and fifty-six seconds left. Felicia's eyesight was quite good, but she didn't say it out loud. She was even a little confused. If Zhang Jie hadn't done anything, wouldn't the last crawler be the one killed by Zheng Jie?
Did this conversation lead to this?
Although it is said softly, it is still louder than the sound of breathing. God knows how incredible the hearing of a crawler who only has the hunting instinct is!!!
"boom!"
There was a loud noise, and a sharp bulge suddenly appeared on the steel door. The four people suddenly felt as if their hearts were beating out. They ran backwards and came to Felicia's side. Everyone, including Zhang Jie, tensed up.
Clinging to the corner of the wall, everyone could only stare at the steel door.
The loud noises kept coming, and there were more and more sharp protrusions on the steel door. Finally, the sharp point of the claw pierced into the door. It seemed like it was cutting oil, and it actually cut through the more than ten centimeters thick
The steel plate tore apart, and the creeper's terrifying face appeared behind the steel gate.
"ah!"
Zheng Zha and Zhang Jie roared at the same time, and fired wildly at the crawler with the guns in their hands. However, in the darkness, and because the two of them were so frightened that they were almost losing their minds at the moment, none of the bullets they fired hit the crawler.
The crawler seemed to be angered. It threw away the fragment of the door in its hand, roared, and jumped towards Felicia...
But Felicia clearly saw that the crawler was facing Zheng Zha and the others, and just now the crawler paused slightly strangely!
"What's going on? Why are you attacking me? Is this a test?"
At this critical moment, Felicia thought of a lot.
Can't fight back! Resisting the urge to fight back, she adjusted her body slightly.
"Chiliu——"
Before the claws could reach it, the crawler's tongue shot out like a frog catching an insect.
The sharp tongue swiped across Felicia's shoulder, and even her shoulder armor strengthened with magic power could not stop its edge.
There was no time to take care of the injury on her shoulder, and Felicia only heard a burst of wind.
This is - Claw!!!
If it's going to happen, we can't draw the sword at this distance!!!
