Volume 1 The Beginning Chapter 4. Purgatory on Earth
Blood is everywhere.
It was just that in the dark night, it was impossible to see the deep and shallow puddles of blood on the ground. Only the thick smell of blood in the air and the bumpy bodies on the ground reminded Tang Ling that this place was.
What just happened.
The playground was full of people, but there was no one there.
Tang Ling clenched the phone in her hand and moved towards the playground step by step.
If Tang Ling looked back, she would find that the exit she just left was gone, replaced by dense bushes.
There were fragments of broken limbs everywhere. Tang Ling forced herself to look straight ahead and not pay attention to those ferocious faces. Her whole body was shaking uncontrollably. A disgusting feeling surged up in her body, reaching her throat, and she couldn't help but shed tears.
The tears flowed down uncontrollably, she covered her mouth with her hands, forced herself to leave the playground.
Really unable to control herself, Tang Ling's legs went weak and she leaned against a trash can, unable to stop retching.
Where to go? What to do?
Tang Ling knew that she couldn't stay where she was for too long, but where should she go now? No one seemed to be able to tell her, where should she escape?
Rory...
Tang Ling thought about Luo Rui's anxious voice on the other end of the phone. She calmed down, picked up a thick branch on the ground, and walked towards cafeteria B.
The first thing to do is to find weapons for self-defense.
As soon as Tang Ling stepped into the side door of the cafeteria and kitchen, she suddenly became aware of several looking eyes in the dark.
Cautious, vigilant.
All the kitchens in the entire building of the cafeteria are connected, but now the safe passage to the second floor is blocked. Except for the door where Tang Ling entered, all other places are blocked with tables and chairs.
It seems that they broke in before they could seal the door.
"It seems to be a girl? How about we go out?"
"What are you doing out there! Who knows if she has been bitten by those monsters!"
"but……"
"If you want to discuss it, why not seal this door first and then discuss it." Tang Ling walked behind the group of people squatting in the corner and reminded softly.
The few people who were still talking quietly were startled when they heard this, and quickly stood up and looked at Tang Ling defensively.
It turns out there are still living people.
Tang Ling breathed a sigh of relief and introduced to the group of people who were staring at her: "Tang Ling, a grade 24 software engineering major in the Software College. I have not been injured by any monsters. If you don't believe me, you can have someone check me."
I haven't even seen those monsters yet.
Tang Ling thought to herself.
Seeing that there were no obvious injuries on Tang Ling's exposed skin or clothes, the group breathed a sigh of relief, and several people immediately went to block the last side door.
"Acting Department, Zhao Chunlu."
"Bioengineering, Wang Chao."
"Electronic Information Engineering, Zhang Xiaohua."
"Department of Finance, Gu Zhou."
"The people blocking the door over there are from bioengineering. Li Xiang, Du Yuan, Zhang Xuanzhi and I are also from the same dormitory." Wang Chao introduced to Tang Ling.
Tang Ling nodded towards them and turned to look at the kitchen utensils: "Are you the only ones here?"
"Yes." Gu Zhou pushed up his glasses on the bridge of his nose, "There are many students on the second floor, but the door leading to the second floor is blocked by them. We can't go up, so we have to stay here."
"Where's the third floor?"
"Third floor..."
Several people were silent for a while, which made Tang Ling feel a little uneasy. She asked, "What's wrong?"
"There are a lot of monsters on the third floor, and they are scary." Gu Zhou thought about the previous scene, with a look of shock on his face, "We originally wanted to run to the private room on the third floor to hide. After all, it is safer inside than outside.
, we initially wanted to go up from the stairs outside the main entrance of the cafeteria, but before we went up, there were suddenly many monsters on the third floor, trying to bite the students who wanted to go up, and all the doors on the second floor were blocked.
, we had no choice but to go down to the first floor to hide. I think those monsters that suddenly appeared should be because of those people who had been injured by monsters."
"Is there anything unusual about those people?" Tang Ling asked.
"People injured by those monsters will only bleed from the wounds at first, and then their vital signs will become weaker and weaker, and finally they will lose breathing. But the next second, they will open their eyes again, but they are no longer human."
"What about the people who were directly killed by monsters?" Tang Ling thought of the bodies in the playground earlier.
"It won't be long before they turn into monsters, and their missing limbs will slowly grow back."
"regeneration?"
Tang Ling thought about how she had just passed through a playground full of hidden monsters alone, and felt a mixture of fear and joy in her heart.
What on earth is it?
"Can you tell me what's special about those monsters? Actually, I haven't met a monster yet."
Tang Ling looked at the puzzled looks in everyone's eyes, touched her nose, and said angrily.
"I really don't know whether you are lucky or unlucky. Those monsters look similar to the zombies in the movie, but they attack very fast and have super strong healing ability. I think even if you chop his body into pieces,
It won't take long for it to grow on its own, and I think they should have some independent thinking ability, and they know how to kill humans with one blow." Zhao Chunlu told Tang Ling her insights.
"Don't you have any weaknesses?"
"There should be, but we don't know yet. After all, no one has the ability to fight that kind of monster for a long time. Once they see their companions trapped or killed, they will immediately come to support."
"What a friendly group..." Tang Ling sighed, feeling helpless in her heart, "Who invented this 'murderous weapon'? Have you ever thought about calling the police? In these circumstances."
"I've reported it a long time ago, but it's useless. Now it's not just our school. There are these monsters everywhere. The police can't control them at all. And now the mobile phone can hardly make calls. The latest news says that there will be a large-scale power outage. What?
You can’t tell when the call will come, and soon the water and gas will be gone.”
Gu Zhou's words made everyone fall silent for a moment.
"By the way, have you seen these girls when you went upstairs?" Tang Ling took out her mobile phone and handed the photo of herself and her roommates in her mobile phone to Zhao Chunlu and the others.
"It doesn't seem like there was. There were too many people. It was a chaotic time and we didn't know it clearly."
"Okay...thank you." Tang Ling sighed as she didn't have much hope.
"Wait! I've seen this girl before." Li Xiang, who had finished blocking the door, walked back and glanced at the photo. He suddenly pointed at Li Jia and said, "When we were not in the cafeteria before, I saw her dragging two girls with her.
We went from the stairs outside the gate to the third floor. At that time, there was a girl next to her who was seriously injured, so I paid more attention. Yes, it seemed that she was the injured one."
"Xiaoyu..." Tang Ling frowned as she watched Li Xiang pointing at Liu Xiaoyu on the phone. She took her phone back, opened WeChat, and sent a message to Luo Rui.
"Where are you?"
"Reply when you see it."
The third floor is now surrounded by monsters. Tang Ling doesn't know the current situation of Luo Rui and the others, so calling rashly may put them in danger.
Before Tang Ling could figure out what to do next, a message notification came from WeChat on her phone, and Tang Ling quickly clicked on it.
News from Rory!
"Lingling, we are in the outermost private room on the third floor and can't get out."
