Joanna was lying on the bed, rolling around excitedly holding the quilt. What was rolling more violently than her body were the various wonderful ideas in her mind.
What Joanna doesn't know is that the current Egg Lee is not Oliver Evans at all, and the AR-7 he is using is not his own gun. It was given to him by Father Locke after the blood epidemic broke out.
of.
Joanna didn't know these two key pieces of information, so her assumptions were all wrong.
But Joanna was right about one thing.
Oliver Evans is not an ordinary child, he is a child with a rare "marksman" talent.
Although talent is rare, it is not unique.
Some extremely rare people in this world are born with certain special abilities. This ability is called talent.
The characteristic of talent is that it is diverse and varied, and cannot be inherited or inherited.
To use an analogy, it is like everyone goes to God to win a lottery ticket before being born, and then comes to the human world.
Most people can only touch "Thank you for participating", but there is always someone who can win the prize. The prize is a blind box, and only you know what it is.
Take the "marksman" talent as an example. This is just a name for everyone's classification of talent results. In fact, everyone's "marksman" is different.
With the changes of the times, the ranking of high-quality talents is also constantly changing. As far as combat talents are concerned, the current "assassination" type is not as popular as the "shooting" type.
Of course, having talent does not mean that you become a superman, nor does it mean that you can easily win by lying down.
Even in competitive sports that can maximize the effects of talent, there are many examples of talented people being upset by ordinary people.
It is because of the existence of talent that many big troubles have occurred in history, so personal attributes have become extremely private.
There are some things you can guess, but you can't ask. The first prohibition is asking someone if they have a gift.
It is extremely secret that Oliver Evans has the talent of a sharpshooter. No one except his two brothers knows about it. Otherwise, he would have been poached by the military long ago.
Oliver Evans is the secret weapon that the eldest brother carefully cultivated. How could he be allowed to participate in a low-level gun battle? To put it bluntly, Oliver's life is much more valuable than his two brothers.
According to the eldest brother's idea, he and the second child will go to pioneer the wilderness first. After the third child reaches a certain social status and resources, the third brother will also be an adult. At this time, it will be just right to form a team to perfectly make up for each other's shortcomings.
That’s when you can truly “fight for the world”.
Unfortunately, the blood epidemic broke out, and Oliver, who only had a "half-gene", hid in the school for two days and finally died.
As a result, Oliver's soul had just flown into the sky, and Egg came through, occupied the magpie's nest, and held on for a while. He happened to meet Father Locke and Vance and was rescued.
Egg took over the body of Oliver Evans and gained his talent as a sharpshooter.
Egg thought he was hiding well, but little did he know that Father Locke and Vance discovered his shooting talent the first time he touched a gun (Chapter 9).
This is like a 3-year-old child swearing to an adult that the cake was eaten by a dog. The adult looked at the cream on the corner of his mouth and smiled without saying a word.
The poor child was still proud of himself for having deceived the adults.
Except for Iger who thinks he has a cheat, the entire gospel team knows that he has the talent of a "sharp shooter".
Otherwise, why would Ige be able to boost people's morale? He has such a big face.
The real reason is that everyone knows that he is a "sharp shooter", so he can bring a guaranteed sense of security.
Vance also told Egger that he hoped that Egger would not limit himself to a "sniper" and that his good talents would not be wasted in the excessive pursuit of "killing an enemy with one bullet" (Chapter 40).
Poor Iger, he thought he had hidden it from everyone, but he didn't know that he was the child who stole the cake.
As for the gang shootout that day, why the boss and the second brother Evans were able to defeat 2 against 10, it was because the boss and the second son were also very rare talent holders.
The eldest, Martin, is a gifted "athlete".
The second child, Mullen, has the talent of being a "quick shooter".
Old Evans didn't know what kind of virtue he had accumulated in his previous life. He gave birth to three children, all of whom were rare talents.
But this sudden outbreak of blood epidemic has redefined "excellence".
As long as you do not carry the blood plague immunity gene, no matter what special talents you have, you will become a mediocre infected person under the erosion of the blood plague.
After Joanna lay back down for a while, there was a knock on the door. She quickly got up and ran barefoot to open the door. Standing outside the door was Egg, who she was thinking about.
Joanna suddenly blushed.
Egger yawned while rubbing his eyes. When he saw Joanna had gotten up, he turned around and left.
Last night, Iger woke up and slept for a while. To put it bluntly, he took care of both vigil and sleep. To put it another way, Iger neither stayed awake nor slept well all night.
If you have to ask why Iger didn't find someone to change his shift in the middle of the night, there are some reasons that are hard to explain: he accidentally fell asleep during the night shift.
When Egger found that he had fallen asleep during the night watch, he woke up with a start, and then tried to make up for his due night watch time, but accidentally fell asleep again.
Today’s breakfast continues to be canned food.
Iger thinks this batch of canned food tastes pretty good, even if it is eaten cold without heating, it is quite delicious.
The place where the four of Aige had breakfast was the downstairs sofa seating area with a sheet as a tablecloth. The woodcarving gentleman was still sitting in the original position, but there was an extra floral sheet covering his head.
Got up.
After eating, everyone simply cleans up. It is easy to destroy environmental hygiene, but it is very difficult to clean it up, so you must be careful to maintain it from the beginning.
The villa had its own water supply system and still has cold water supply, and Egger thought the villa might be used as a permanent outpost.
After breakfast, everyone helped each other and climbed out of the gap in the wall. Joanna drove towards the Gospel Church.
After only one night, the advance team came back again, but this time they brought good news.
At breakfast, everyone had a different hot can. While everyone was there, Iger briefly talked about the situation in the villa.
Iger thinks that a scavenger team can be organized to carry cans to the villa, but first the problem of the entry and exit of people and materials must be solved.
Egger said to Vance and asked him not to destroy the electric rail gate.
This gate is an important security barrier for the villa. Once the gate is destroyed, the wall will lose its function and the security of the villa will be greatly reduced.
This problem can be solved.
Clyde has a way to use a car to power the gate. There are so many luxury cars in the garage, so just drive one out and park it in the yard and it can be used as a generator.
As for the key to the door, the man in the suit most likely has it on him. If not, it must be in the room or the car.
This kind of gate will not use a biological key such as voice control, but only an electronic remote control.
After reporting these things, the four of Aige did not wait until everyone had finished breakfast. They had to rush to Jixi Town to work.
The original purpose of setting up the outpost was to travel less distance and save fuel. As a result, we have made two round trips in the past two days and haven't saved even a cent.
Fortunately, Vance and Clyde had already secured the gas station yesterday. As long as they connected the generator, they could continuously pump fuel from the underground oil depot of the gas station.
Among the current gospel team, the two technicians Vance and Clyde are particularly important, and many construction work is carried out around them.
Compared with the chopper team, people with technical expertise are more valuable in the end of the world.
After all, a killer can be a human being as long as he is ruthless and steady.
Technical personnel need to be trained for a long time, and now there is simply no time and conditions to train technical personnel.
It's a pity that electronic engineer Zachary. If he hadn't made an unforgivable mistake, Iger would have liked to persuade him to let him go.
There is also Jenna, a surgical nurse. The current team is very short of medical personnel. The only doctor is Father Locke who works part-time.
Iger let out a long sigh, and he helplessly remembered a heart-wrenching sentence: You are a beautiful woman, how can you be a thief!
In order to prevent this kind of thing from happening again, Iger can only use thunderous means to avoid past mistakes and avoid future consequences. As for whether it will affect his own image, Iger can't think that much.
Half an hour later, Joanna drove her car to the place where the Screamer was killed yesterday.
After losing their commander, the infected ran wild last night, and now they are scattered all over the mountains and plains.
