Chapter 161 The Researcher Female Protagonist in the End of the World (3)
So now, they have to leave this secondary pollution area and send Miao Shu back to the laboratory so that Miao Shu can continue to deduce the experimental data.
Lin Zhen looked at Miao Shu, who was half floating in the air as a soul, walked towards the wilderness ahead, and said, "Let's go."
There are relatively few heretics in the secondary pollution area, and the danger is slightly less, but each heretic is still fatal to ordinary humans.
Miao Shu followed Lin Zhen and warned worriedly: "Be careful and don't let the heretic come into contact with your skin. The gene of the heretic is very contaminating."
"Okay." Lin Zhen responded, and formed a sword to protect his whole body. Even every strand of hair was protected tightly to prevent Miao Shu's body from being contaminated by heresy due to his own carelessness.
The heretics in the second-level pollution area were no threat to Lin Zhen, and they could be killed with a flash of sword energy.
But the strange smell exuded by the corpses and blood of heretics will attract more heretics, who are as keen as blood-sucking mosquitoes and flies, lingering on the corpses of the same kind scattered in the wilderness.
When she reached the edge of the contaminated area, Lin Zhen couldn't help but look back: Over the wilderness full of gravel and dust, countless black figures were hovering where she walked, greedily competing for food.
He touched the corpse on the ground and let out a harsh "chirp" sound.
If they find a living creature within their field of vision, they will pounce on it greedily and covetously like they are doing now, and eat up the prey.
Lin Zhen carefully restrained his breath and walked towards the outskirts of the contaminated area.
Outside the contaminated area is a cement road that has been broken into pieces and has some bumps. Lin Zhen looked at the road in front of him, and then looked at the small map provided by the system: "Go along this road and you can return to the laboratory?
"
Miao Shu looked around: she hadn't been here for a long time, and the last time was two years ago. The difference between the appearance here at that time and that after the apocalypse was so great that it was difficult to recognize.
In the end, she could barely identify the direction by relying on the metal road signs riddled with holes: "Yes, you can reach the base by walking straight along this road from here."
"It seems a bit far." Lin Zhen put away the small map and suddenly frowned. She looked at the black shadow appearing on the horizon in the distance, "Huh? Heretic?"
It was indeed a heresy. At this time, the unique buzzing sound of arthropods could be heard in the air.
At the same time, a human shout came from the ground not far away: "It's coming! Be careful, keep your distance, prepare the A bomb!"
Lin Zhen watched a black-shell car roaring past from the other side of the road. A man with a bandaged arm in the car carried a firearm and fired at the heretic behind him.
The bullets in that gun were probably specially designed to deal with heretics.
As soon as the bullet, whose shell reflected the cold metallic luster, hit the heretic, it let out a shrill scream, fell heavily to the ground with a whimper, and stopped moving.
He stared at the heretic for a while, and when he saw no movement, he put down the gun in his hand: "Huh, it's dead." The man breathed a heavy sigh of relief, jumped out of the car, "Put on the isolation gloves, put on the
Remove its limbs and bring them back."
Several other people put on white isolation gloves and got out of the car as instructed.
The man cautiously fired another shot at the heretic on the ground to confirm: "No problem, he should be dead."
They cautiously tried to approach the heretic. Suddenly, there was a loud sound of breaking through the air not far away, and something flew past them with a "swish" and slammed into the heretic with a "click".
skull.
The heretic's forelimbs were raised high, and it let out a shrill scream, then the sound gradually weakened, and then it truly died.
The men were startled. They looked at the branch that had penetrated deeply into the heretic's head. They all took a breath of wonder, and then they began to feel scared: "This heretic is so cunning, he actually pretended to be dead..."
"
They looked up in the direction of the footsteps and saw Lin Zhen walking slowly towards her. They could only identify the person who had saved them just by looking at the half-broken branch in her hand.
Miao Shu's appearance seemed a little different from the savior they had imagined for a moment, but they glanced at each other and understood that they couldn't judge a person by his appearance like this, and racked their brains to think of how to call him: "Thank you...big man"
?”
Lin Zhen, known as the "big boss", looked at them calmly and said, "You're welcome. Which base are you from?"
The men looked at each other, weighed the situation, and carefully confirmed: "Well, it's not that we doubt you...but, can you confirm first...in case there is a heresy..."
Listening to their hesitant words, Lin Zhen understood what they were worried about and said: "Well, indeed. You can prove it first."
The men were also unambiguous. They took off their isolation gloves and pricked their fingertips hard, and bright red blood beads suddenly emerged from their fingertips.
They showed their bloody fingertips to Lin Zhen: "You see, we are not contaminated by heretics."
"Yes." Lin Zhen neatly made a small slit on her fingertips, and a drop of bright red blood dripped from her fingertips to the ground. She said calmly: "Me neither."
The tensed nerves of those men finally relaxed, and they truthfully told Lin Zhen the news she had asked about: "We are from the Sixth Base in the Southeast. We heard that there is a new type of heresy here that is not very lethal, so we wanted to come and pick one up.
Take the leak back and exchange it for some usable daily necessities. Who knew that the new heretic didn't see it, but instead provoked this heretic. Fortunately, you found it, otherwise we would all have been trapped here today..."
Miao Shu added an explanation on the side: "They should be mercenaries in the base. They usually exchange for supplies through these tasks, and hunting heretics is one of them."
"Is this heretic's corpse useful?"
Miao Shu replied: "Yes, these heretical corpses are needed for experimental data in various places. It is very important."
"Oh, I understand." Lin Zhen nodded slightly, and the topic suddenly changed, "By the way, which base is your laboratory at?"
"Ah?" Miao Shu was confused for a moment, and then answered truthfully, "The sixth base in the southeast."
"What a coincidence, doesn't that happen to be the same base as these people?"
"Well, yes." Miao Shu scratched her head and said, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing, I just want to take a ride."
After saying that, Lin Zhen looked at those people seriously. When they were almost terrified by the sight, he suddenly asked: "I also want to go back to the Sixth Southeast Base. Can I give you a ride?"
