Nicole Chaya was wearing a warm cotton jacket and looked at the corpses freezing to death on the ground.
Some corpses were unable to even take off their masks because they were so cold.
Nowadays, there is no difference between day and night.
Because the snow was so heavy, even the horses of the Black Corpse Team were frozen to death.
"This is the list of corpses that must be sent out today." David walked to Nicole, handed a piece of paper to her, and said: "During this period, every day, we have to..."
He looked at the corpses and noticed that Nicole's eyes exposed in the mask were covered with bloodshot eyes, and said: "Go back and take a shower first and rest for a while. We are right next to the black wall.
, ready to go at any time.”
"No," Nicole said: "Every time you leave the black wall, the corpse chaser is the most important, and it is related to the survival rate of the entire team."
"This is an order. You go back and take a rest. As you said, how important the corpse chasers are. We currently have only two corpse chasers in the Delun Division, you and Red. There must be one corpse chaser at the same time.
Within the walls.”
Nicole's mood became heavier and heavier.
"After Congressman James was elected, he immediately fulfilled his promise and held this survival competition. Now, I wonder how many people can survive?"
"Maybe you will find my words ugly, but..." David sighed and said: "Objectively speaking, maybe this would be better. You and I both know that many people will definitely not survive this winter, and the price of food has risen to extremely high levels.
It's so terrifying that even ordinary grain stores can't open now. The powerful people above are hoarding grain and selling it at high prices. Hunger has caused people to become Splitters and not hesitate to snatch food. If this continues, this winter
A large number of supernatural spirits will appear within the inner wall, and the consequences will be disastrous."
"That……"
"If we weren't engaged in this job, people with gray masks like us wouldn't be able to have a full meal at all. Now inside this wall, if you want to buy a bag of flour, you can only buy it through those people who hoard food. Now, Meng
The highest denomination of banknotes has reached 100 million. Even so, the rise in food prices has not stopped at all. To be honest, instead of starving to death, it is better to have a try in the survival competition. Even if you die underground, the alien spirit will
Capture those masks, and these people will not turn into supernatural beings after they die."
Nicole covered her mouth in horror and said, "Wait a minute, is this the purpose of the higher-ups?"
"Eliminating the large number of unemployed and homeless people is indeed an important factor, but what they are most worried about is the out-of-control number of supernatural beings. Those with high-level masks don't care about the lives of the untouchables in gray masks, but what they worry about is the death of a large number of hungry people.
, a large number of facemelders will be produced. Or, the people at the bottom feel that they cannot survive, and would rather take off their masks to snatch food. And this survival competition gives them a chance to survive."
Hearing David's words, Nicole felt cold all over.
"Is this what Congressman James had in mind? To use the hands of supernatural spirits to kill the people at the bottom and eliminate them and turn them into supernatural beings to pose a threat to them?"
"We are just the lowest common people," David exhaled and said, "Even if we know how dangerous this profession is, the number of people who are willing to join the Black Corpse Team has recently begun to increase, just to have a full meal, but the Black Corpse Team
There is a limit to the number of members that can join the team, and the government has been cutting our funding. Our food is not much different from pig food. You and I both know very well that this year’s unprecedented food shortage represents the government’s food shortage.
The warehouse can only support a few people inside the wall to survive, and only the majority of people starve to death before food can be eaten."
…
There are two types of white masks.
From Reeve's report, Dong Xie and his mother Ziyi obtained this information.
The white mask is independent of the six color classes. It can be used on top of the mask. It can be taken off and put on at any time. Because of this, when a mask must be worn, just wearing a white mask will still cause cracks.
Masker. This mask seems to be a mutated condition. Only a very small number of people are born wearing two masks, and one of them is a white mask.
The white mask has the ability to witness and detect foreign spirits, as well as space transfer. In terms of space transfer, the white mask is also divided into two types. One can allow humans to move in space, and the other can allow foreign spirits to move in space.
In the former, as long as the mask is brought close to a certain distance from the face, it will be automatically put on and the space wormhole will be opened at the same time. In the latter, when the alien spirit comes close to a certain level, the space wormhole will be opened and the alien spirit will be automatically sent to another place.
Area closer to the black wall.
After Dong Xie and Mu Ziyi first escaped, they wore the former white mask on their faces, while the latter white mask was on the guard door. The latter white mask was the white mask worn by the dead.
Mask. No matter what kind of alien spirit, white masks will not be hunted. But people who wear white masks usually also wear masks of another color. After being killed, the white mask will be left on the face, but
It will not fuse with the face of the deceased to turn it into a Facemelder, and the mask will not shatter after being taken off.
But such white masks cannot be worn or touched by humans. As for what will happen once they are touched or worn, the report does not mention it at all. Precisely because white masks are recyclable, even if white masks cannot be passed on to future generations,
"Bang bang bang!"
At this time, there was another knock on the door.
Dong Xie walked to the door and asked, "Are you a person participating in the survival competition?"
"Please...let, let me in!"
Dong Xie said: "You can come in, but you must abide by our rules here. First of all, if you are wearing a weapon, you must disarm it before entering."
"I.I agree!"
"Secondly, don't touch the mask above the door. Okay."
Dong Xie opened the door.
Although the alien spirit is outside the door, there is a white mask on the door. Those who dare not approach are probably Face Melters. Face Melters seem to be more intelligent than Face Splitters, and most Face Splitters will choose to directly
Walk over and be sucked into other areas by the white mask.
When Dong Xie opened the door, Mu Ziyi was holding a gun. When the gray masked man outside rushed in, he saw the gun pointed at his head.
"You, you..."
"I have to check if you have weapons on you." Dong Xie quickly closed and locked the door, and then said: "Not only firearms, but even knives, you are not allowed to keep them on you."
"Okay...okay."
The man in the gray mask looked quite strong, and his clothes were all covered in sweat. After Dong Xie quickly searched him, he determined that he had no weapons on him.
"Can, can you give me some food and water?"
"I can give you a piece of compressed biscuit and a glass of water. No more."
Dong Xie didn't give the other party any room for bargaining. From Mo Yuan's past experience, he understood one thing. There must be a limit to the kindness you can give to others. Only when you give a limit will he be grateful, because only by showing gratitude
In order to ask for more, if you give without limit, he will think it is natural and natural. If you cannot continue to give, he will feel resentful towards you.
"Can you give me a little more..."
Mu Ziyi's gun was pointed at him.
"Okay, okay, just a biscuit will do..."
The man in the gray mask first drank a sip of water to replenish his energy, while holding the biscuit in his hand and reluctant to eat it, he said: "I, I only have the last 5 kilometers left. As long as I finish running, I can replace this
A gray mask! As long as I change to red and blue masks, I won’t have to worry about eating anymore!”
"How did you escape from the alien spirit all the way until now?"
"There are enough people being hunted by supernatural beings. There are countless people participating in the competition. This is just one of the divisions we belong to. Only the top ten can get high-level masks."
"Only the top ten?"
"I can't help it." The man in the gray mask grabbed the biscuit in his hand. His lips exposed at the hollow mouth of the mask were severely cracked and peeled.
"We are just the most ordinary farmers. No matter where we are this year, the food harvest is seriously short. Except for changing to a higher-end mask, we simply cannot survive. As long as we have a higher-end mask... our family can survive.
