In the Jiujie Station, which is 13,000 meters underground, in the fountain square lined with giant statues, the cold mist formed a layer of frost on the bronze statues of these giants.
The cat climbing frame lady is holding BOSS and standing on the plastic steel suspension bridge, as if she is walking on a star-studded Milky Way.
The eyes of the little black cat reflected the outline of a huge bronze molded lake, with a cold and solemn expression, as if looking at an ancient history hidden before human civilization.
"BOSS, Teacher Victor has sent back a batch of the latest logs, which have been translated. Let's see when you have time..." Ms. Cat Climber reminded BOSS that he can't rest yet.
The little black cat woke up from that relaxed and happy state and became excited: "In addition to the diary, did the boy give you anything else? Let me find some fresh fun after work?"
The cat climbing frame continued: "Teacher Victor said that he met two very interesting little guys. They were the two who had just completed the stone-giving ceremony and were traveling by car for the second time. I can't remember their names clearly. They were there every day.
There are a lot of new people…”
"Jiang Xueming, Bu Liuxing." BOSS has a very good memory, and the little cat can hold a grudge: "It's not in vain that I specially arranged them to be on the same bus, hehe... Jiang Xueming, this brat, must have learned a lesson from Victor. I will
Said - according to Victor's training method of knight's competition, it is completely torture, and it is the same as the coming of age ceremony of the Spartan warriors."
"No..." Ms. Cat Climbing Frame explained: "The results may not be the same as you expected. Bu Liuxing accepted Teacher Victor's challenge and successfully passed the test."
"Ah? That reckless kid passed the test? Did Victor show mercy?" BOSS immediately became reluctant, with a face full of disappointment: "I thought my good translator and my weird-tempered great writer could
Teach Jiang Xueming a lesson for me, after all, it would be too shameful for me to spank the child myself - although I don't have any expectations."
"Do you think VIP can't deal with that prickly head?" Ms. Cat Climber was a little surprised.
"If it were an upright fight, that arrogant little guy would definitely not be Victor's opponent." The BOSS yawned, feeling very bored: "Your eyesight has been getting worse day by day recently, and your memory has become worse and worse, my dear.
The waiter."
The cat climbing frame lady apologized in a low voice: "I'm sorry, BOSS. People will always grow old, and one day, I will leave you."
"I don't blame you!~ How can I bear to blame you!~" BOSS explained again: "That little guy Jiang Xueming, after returning to the station, he went to the thinking examination room to do a safety inspection-his various data had already been changed by the polarizing sextant.
The dial is bursting at the seams.”
"Hmm." Ms. Mao Climbing Frame finally remembered: "9527 also told me about this in private. She thinks Mr. Jiang Xueming has the potential to become a VIP."
"If Victor is like a teacher and asks a few easy questions, I'm afraid it won't be difficult for this kid with extremely strong mental power." BOSS spread his paws and looked helpless: "But it's okay, Victor can't
He will not be dejected all day long. He has to train new people according to the probability of strengthening items. He has failed more than two hundred times and finally succeeded in strengthening once. I guess he should be high-spirited and very happy now, right? Courage and confidence are important to any passenger.
They are all very precious things.”
The cat climbing frame lady turned into a rainbow fart bragging expert: "BOSS's arrangement is perfect."
"I'm a little embarrassed to take pictures of your horse." The little black cat said in a cold tone, "It's like a PUA in the workplace. I just hope that every passenger can be motivated, happy and safe.
Taking risks, human emotions are so complex...it’s hard for me to understand.”
"By the way, there is one more thing I have to remind you about these two new passengers." The cat climbing frame lady reminded: "You have arranged for them to go to the Death Dome City? Is that right?"
"What's wrong?" BOSS didn't take it seriously: "Their security officer is a local, he is very familiar with the psychic disasters in that city, he has rich experience, and his combat skills are barely passable. It should be no problem to bring two newcomers to gain some experience.
I don’t expect them to get back any valuable information. If they can listen to the security officer, play like a primary school student for a few days, and finally come back safely, I think it shouldn’t be a big problem.”
Ms. Cat Climber: "Jiang Xueming rang the summons bell."
BOSS: "What did you just say?"
Ms. Mao Climbing Frame cautiously explained: "Jiang Xueming rang the summons bell. And your tone sounded like you were raising cards in a krypton gold mobile game, so I didn't have the nerve to tell you this sad news right away -
—The SSR panel monster you drew, Mr. Jiang Xueming, rang the summons bell three hours ago and encountered a life-or-death crisis."
"How could this happen?!" BOSS then reacted: "Isn't the place he is going to the B14 living area? Could it be that this little genius followed Victor and ran to the core area?"
"According to their safety officer's vehicle positioning, they did get off at the investigation site." Ms. Mao Climbing went on to explain: "But Mr. Jiang Xueming seemed to have shaken his car earlier on the road from DD station to the city.
Ringed the summons bell."
"Hasn't this happened before we entered the city?!" BOSS was puzzled: "He's shaking people before he even entered the city? How cowardly is he? Does he have some acute illness? He had a heart attack on the way.
?That’s not right? I gave him the panacea with my own hands! What disease can’t be cured?”
Ms. Cat Climber said: "Anyway, his waiter has already set off. When summoned, the waiter must respond."
"Okay... that's fine." The BOSS looked disgusted: "It seems that my people are not busy enough. There is a shortage of people at the station, and one waiter has to be split into two."
The cat climbing frame lady asked: "Are you worried? Are you worried that he is really stuck?"
"That's not the case...it's just that the city is very complicated. High-risk areas are connected to low-risk areas, and they are divided into different blocks using runes. These runes are like death doors and hell gates.
The desperadoes cannot cross these death doors, nor can they run to other areas, but there is no guarantee that these two little darlings will run away on their own - As for Jiang Xueming's safety in the B14 living area, you have to ask me where that place is
What dangerous goods? I can only say that if Jiang Xueming gets a gun, he will be the most dangerous dangerous goods in the B14 area."
"I've also seen that video." Ms. Mao Climbing Station was referring to the video of Jiang Xueming taking a weapons skill test when he first arrived at the station: "He is an excellent shooter."
"Eleven targets in thirty seconds, you can still distinguish between friend and foe. Even though you are standing and shooting, all of them hit the vital points." The boss was a little dissatisfied with the frivolous comment of the cat climbing frame lady: "Your requirements are too high - waiter, you can't use it.
According to your standards, when you look at a newcomer who has just experienced his first [transformation], Jiang Xueming has already shown very terrifying combat capabilities at this stage. He still needs time to grow and understand his own pyroxene and sticks. He needs more skills.
To stimulate his soul in a spiritual disaster environment, sooner or later, he will definitely be able to find the power of his soul - every VIP has to go through six transformations to finally find it."
"What do you think of the other little guy?"
"How to see it? Use your eyes to see it. When we don't know anything about stubborn rocks, how do we know whether it is a beautiful jade? Or a worthless stone?"
"Don't you want to know how this Bu Meteor passed Teacher Victor's exam? It's about the complicated topics of [resisting temptation] and [mental pressure]."
"What kind of tricks can this kid do?"
"In order to prove his innocence and prove that he had not read Mr. Victor's manuscript, he dismantled the entire VIP carriage and caught all the mice."
"Ha! That's interesting!" BOSS grinned: "This brat will really cause trouble for me."
Cat climbing frame lady: "Sounds like a disaster."
"Hahahahahahaha!" The little black cat covered its belly and rolled with laughter in the arms of the cat climbing frame. "D'Artagnan in "The Three Musketeers" is going to go on a long trip to Paris——"
"——Mother told him to take care of himself."
"——My father told him to get into trouble, to make mistakes, to fight! To love! To live!"
BOSS sat up straight and stared at the giant bronze statue in the fountain square again, as if looking at a trophy.
"——The early expansion of Homo sapiens wiped out 90% of other species on the earth, including other large races of Homo sapiens. What remained were apex predators, and their blood had the taste of iron. Because of this,
Without trouble, where would beauty come from?"
"It seems that our understanding of the word [Femme Fatale· Disaster Beauty] is very different." The cat climbing frame lady whispered softly, rubbing the boss's soft ridge: "But I think it's good."
...
...
Along the railway station, we traveled thousands of kilometers and arrived at the outer edge of the Death Couple City.
In front of the gate of the B14 living area, in Commander Nanami's Volga car——
——Three people have escaped from this weird community.
If you want to talk about it in detail, it should be fought all the way.
Ah Xing handed the two spare magazines of the P90 to Xueming. After the three of them walked out of the restaurant, they turned into a fire net on three sides, running and firing three times.
Chief Nanami cleared a path ahead, and she had no intention of showing mercy to these crazy desperadoes.
Xueming followed closely. Some targets were shot and fell, but they did not lose consciousness completely. He could still hear these half-dead desperadoes wailing and making all kinds of strange requests, like ghosts with deep obsessions that could not be freed.
.
A target was cut into two pieces by a 5.77mm bullet. He ran to the edge of the tennis court and tried to climb up, shouting "It hurts so much!~", and then climbed over the iron net to add the sentence "
Don’t leave!~ Guest, don’t leave! Come celebrate the New Year with us!”
Before he could finish his sentence, the sound of gunshots became Xueming's answer.
Ah Xing watched this strange scene with cold sweat on his head - the people moving in the stadium were sweating energetically, but now they were mumbling unexplained nonsense. It was as if they had changed after knowing the truth about their death. Very, very extreme.
If you listen carefully, Ah Xing can still hear the yelling coming from the family building.
"Why can you leave here?"
"Come back! Come back! Come back! Come back!"
"A living...a living person! You have red blood...blood that smells like rust. Let me have a look! Let me have a look!"
...
...
Bu Liuxing's calf was cut by the toilet tiles, and he walked with a limp.
I saw the desperadoes chasing after me, holding their companions' heads in their hands, and throwing them at the three foreign guests as if they were shooting baskets.
The head made a strange cry in mid-air, revealing its thick white teeth and dark eyes.
"Take me away! Take me away! Let's go together! I want to live! I want to live!"
Before the head could hit the ground, Ah Xing kicked it back.
On this road, there was blood and mud crawling everywhere - they finally escaped to the gate, and saw the blue-collar man at the security booth preparing to close the gate.
"Stop! Get out of my way!" Commander Nanami shouted loudly.
The uncle seemed to have retained the slightest bit of sanity. He showed a look of horror when he saw the gun and immediately did not dare to move.
When the three strangers rushed out of the door, Nanami stopped suddenly, opened Volga's car door and got in.
Jiang Xueming and Bu Liuxing followed closely behind——
——A Xing, a strong man, got into the back row. Xue Ming was afraid that he would not be able to make it in time, so he sat directly in the passenger seat.
Then they saw these crazy desperadoes picking up the stumps of their companions on the road as throwing objects and throwing them violently outside the community.
When those human tissues crossed the gate of the community, they could not be thrown very far. They fell in front of the road markings, still some distance away from the cars.
"What should we do now?" Bu Liuxing asked in a panic.
Commander Nanami gritted her teeth: "Wait!"
Several desperadoes who had completely lost their minds rushed out of the community and ran wildly outside. When they stepped onto the boundary between the community and public transportation, they stepped on the runes on the road signs.
At that moment, their bodies exploded.
Specifically——
——A flower of flesh and blood exploded from behind.
The strong and light bones seemed to be firmly caught by something. The separation of bones and flesh was completed in an instant, and they broke out from their backs. Then the skin and texture separated, and they followed the texture of the joints and muscles on the skin. .
They immediately collapsed into a ball of mud and were slowly pulled back to the sports activity area of the family building of the ironworks by that inexplicable strange force, as if they were being pulled by an invisible executioner.
The same goes for the dark blood in their bodies. It flowed along the dragging traces and slowly squirmed back like living snakes.
Other desperadoes were still throwing severed limbs. When those limbs touched the road markings, they were decomposed by this inexplicable force and were eventually recaptured into the community.
There were also a few clever beasts who seemed not to be affected by this line. The three domestic dogs that had just taken a detour and escaped had already run out and surrounded Volga, baring their teeth.
Jiang Xueming immediately took a picture of this scene with his mobile phone, and saw the runes on the road markings, marked with the phrases "dagaz" and "hagalaz".
Bu Liuxing explained: "It means the end of twenty-four hours, the strong wind of the day, and the restriction of dawn. Like a kind of witchcraft, it seems that this line can stop these desperadoes."
Jiang Xueming looked out the window at the large dogs that kept jumping and pulling at the car doors. These smart beasts would even scratch the door handle with their paws and try to open the door.
"What are we going to do with these dogs? Why aren't they affected?"
"They are not dead, they are smart! Cunning! The runes don't recognize them!" Chief Nanami took out the G26 and prepared to kill these big dogs. He asked the runes to catch these beasts back and was about to roll the car.
window.
Jiang Xueming also took out his gun and was about to roll down the window to shoot, but before he could raise his hand——
——The three brothers fled back to the security guard box with a puff of smoke, hiding in the corner and shivering with their tails between their legs, as if they were exhausted again and again. When they saw Jiang Xueming's face covered with blood, they fell into despair.
Escaped. These beasts are indeed just like Chief Nanami said. They are very clever. Even in a half-dead state, they still know how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
Enrique's family can also be seen among the bustling crowd.
Mr. Enrique and Mrs. Enrique, holding hands with each other, struggled to throw their son out.
"Baby! Go play with your brothers!"
Little Enrique threw his naked butt all the way onto the front hood of the car. The power of the runes crushed him into a ball of flesh, and he was caught back before he could speak.
Seeing that scene, Ah Xing's SAN level plummeted, and he kept urging Commander Nanami to drive away from this place quickly.
"Not yet, we have to wait." Chief Nanami counted the time in her mind, "Every time something like this happens in this community, it will return to normal after a few minutes. You have to wait for a while and keep quiet."
After about a minute, the lights in the ironworks building went out one after another.
The stadium's artificial ultraviolet headlights were also out of power.
It was like a safety measure to blow a fuse. Except for the other side of the car window, there were light sources in other areas of the city. The residential building outside their right-hand side window was completely dark.
"Get off the bus, get off the bus! Turn on the flashlight, don't shine into the community! Don't disturb their sleep!" Commander Nanami quickly ordered, asking the two passengers to stand on the line of the rune, "Repay all the blood on your body.
Give them a place to fix themselves!"
Jiang Xueming leaned on the car and held on to Ah Xing tightly. Although he didn't know what Chief Nanami was talking about, it should be considered a very important matter——
——Then, he felt the dirt and blood on his body were like a pair of palms, suddenly starting to tear the fabric on his body.
They were carried away by a huge force, and blood droplets like oil bounced and rolled on the cover of the car, and were sucked back into the community after a while.
There were also a lot of broken bones and minced meat on his body, which, like blood, were blown back to the community by this invisible hurricane.
Under the pull of this force, Jiang Xueming kept turning over and shaking his legs, trying to shake off all the dirt on his body. He felt that his lungs were extremely itchy, and he coughed violently, followed by several sneezes, as if
All the dirty air I breathed in is returned.
The same was true for Axing and Chief Nanami. They grabbed the strong frame of the Volga and sneezed repeatedly. It took a while before they returned to normal.
In the darkness, only three beams of cool lights remained.
Nanami asked using a Chinese phrase: "Just now, Jiang Xueming, you killed so many people by yourself, what happened?"
"I have never used the P90 in combat. I have only touched the model before." Jiang Xueming confessed truthfully: "I can't quite tell its rate of fire and bullet speed. When they surrounded them, it was half a fan, some high and some short.
He was holding a tachyon knife and a kitchen knife in his hands. He was obviously coming to catch me and kill me. I made a mental calculation and aimed at the baseline of my head and shot him..."
"No... what I'm asking is, why did you kill so many people by yourself?" Nanami swallowed her saliva, feeling very nervous. She didn't expect that the combat power of this group of passengers would be so exaggerated - she was asked to kill a hundred
After firing fifty rounds of ammunition, the efficiency of using P90 to kill chickens is not so terrible.
"Didn't I say that?" Jiang Xueming scratched his head in confusion: "I fired according to the aiming baseline of the head. Fortunately, the rhythm of the firearm's re-entry was pretty much the same, and the range of the muzzle bounce was also within the range I expected -
They had no heads, but their bodies seemed to be moving for a while, so I kicked over the table to stop them. Since there was a window behind me, it was difficult for me to break out. I crossed the half-circled way out. After changing the bullets, I followed
Shooting in the direction of the toilet."
Nanami's mouth opened slightly, as if she heard something incredible.
"You want to save us?"
"I was saving myself." Jiang Xueming continued to explain: "At that time, there were about ten people going to the toilet to block you. I hid while changing bombs and throwing the suitcase out at the same time. Four people noticed the decoy bomb. It was indeed
It's useful, but it's not completely useful - because among the ten or so people, they are divided into two groups, and the first six are queuing up. I just need to aim at that point and pull the trigger in sequence according to the timing.
Line up and shoot. And then..."
Nanami still didn't come to her senses: "You want to save me?"
"I said, I am saving myself, please let me finish first." Jiang Xueming's expression was very cautious, thinking that he was not joking at all, "If the later group blocks the toilet door, you guys
I can't get out. I still have 71 rounds of ammunition in my reserve, and only one fire point. In this open scene, I will definitely become very passive, and I still don't know what happened in the toilet and what is going on outside.
What else will happen?”
He took out his magic wand, and the blood on the stick became clean with the strange strong wind just now.
He went on to explain: "I emptied the second magazine, but before I could change the third magazine, I had to carry my wand and G26 to fight at close range - they were coming to capture this heavy iron rod, so I
I have tried very hard to crush their heads with my pistol, but there is still a diner who has lost his head and walked to the toilet sink. I am worried that you will be stopped by him——
——Then what you saw, my stick was very clumsy when dealing with multiple targets. I distanced myself and emptied the last submachine gun magazine. Things happened so fast that I didn’t even have time to put on sunglasses.
This stick can only stop them, but cannot completely knock them down. I can only keep looking for sharp weapons, stabbing their heads with a table knife, and pricking their eyes with tachyons. This is the only way to quickly make them lose their will to fight."
When Jiang Xueming recalled that scene, he felt a sense of shock.
"I was really scared on my own, especially the last puppy. When it rushed in, even though I caught it, God knows if it had been vaccinated against rabies. This place was in the middle of nowhere, so I should
How to treat such a terminal disease? Rely on a panacea? This is too wasteful. Obviously, rabies can be treated for more than 600 yuan on the ground, but it is necessary to waste a panacea to treat it. In my day and age, just thinking about it
I feel like my tooth hurts - luckily you arrived in time, so the three bigger beasts behind didn't dare to rush in."
"Is there a possibility..." Bu Liuxing suddenly appeared: "Brother Ming! I mean, is there a possibility... The last three beasts were not scared away by us."
"What else could it be?"
Jiang Xueming didn't understand: "I have used up all the bullets in my secondary weapon, and I can't find a suitable knife at hand. The folding knife that Chief Jessica gave us will soon break and deform if used to deal with bones -
——It’s difficult for me to use this stick flexibly with one hand. The other hand is still busy handling this little beast. That’s when I’m at my weakest. If these three big dogs pounce, I won’t dare.
Think about what the result will be. They are very strong, and the beast's attack posture will be very low. They are much more difficult to deal with than humanoid targets. They are not interested in suitcases, and they are not affected by decoy bombs.
——At that time, I was determined to lose both sides and prepared to escape into the kitchen to see if there were other weapons, bone-cleavers or open flames. It would be best to get a torch to drive them away. If there was no other way, I could only try using air-conditioning refrigerant.
Burn them to death, or use gas cans to deal with them. Later, you come out with guns and drive them away."
Nanami wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and asked Ah Xing, who was also sweating, in Japanese.
"Has he always had so many mental activities?"
Ah Xing said "Hi".
Nanami asked again: "What did he do before?"
Ah Xing thought for a while and finally found a relatively decent explanation, "He is a head chef. He mainly uses his troubled beauty as a selling point to bring goods. His business ability is equal to his good looks."
Nanami: "Like the cowherd service at a barbecue restaurant?"
Ah Xing thought again: "You can say that."
Nanami: "It's hard for me to believe your explanation..."
The two chatted in Japanese for a long time. Jiang Xueming didn't understand a word, so he came to Ah Xing and asked.
"You and Nanami...oh no, what were you and Chief Jessica talking about?"
