The warm and clear light of the early morning sun gradually brightened the light blue sky in the morning, awakening Fanjia City in the high mountains.
The brick walls that spread on the hillside awakened and brightened layer by layer, shining with golden spots in the sun. It was a clear and windless morning, and there were screams and the clash of gold and metal in the countless streets of Fanjia City.
, the sounds of escaping footsteps, the wet sound of exploding blood, and the panicked cries of children, overflowed from the cracks in the windows and ceilings, shining like streams in the sunlight.
Crying and crying for help were not the only ones crawling out of the windows and ceilings; panic-stricken people, whether ordinary people or evolved people, ran out immediately like headless flies.
Some people jumped off the city wall and landed in the open space between the two walls; some stepped on special items and flew into the air; some tried to fight; some failed to stand firm and rolled out along the city road, shouting in despair
All the way, it rolled into the hands of the mutants that spread into every city road.
Lin Sanjiu felt that the middle-aged woman was probably not the only one covering most of Fanjia City's roads now; there were probably other people in the city who had mutated at the same time.
Even if it is an unknown "mutation", it seems that once it mutates, it will continue to develop according to the same pattern, rather than giving birth to something completely different like an orange on a watermelon - but when she caught it
While holding Badou De and Zhong Qing running desperately through various city roads to warn, she saw at least three new mutants that were very different from the middle-aged woman. Each one was like a flood, sweeping and engulfing various city roads.
It is still spreading in all directions.
"Over there," although Zhong Qing is not as skilled as Lin Sanjiu, his reaction is quick and his attitude is unexpectedly calm. He is worthy of being hired by Badou De. He pointed diagonally forward and said: "Let's start from that
Run towards the outside of Fanjia City. The mutants appear from inside the city. The further you go, the safer you will be!"
"Do you know the way?" Lin Sanjiu grabbed Badou De's arm tightly, dragged him forward, and asked loudly. If she hadn't been dragging him, she was really afraid that Badou De would rush back stubbornly.
Reason with the mutant and persuade the person in front of the mutant to calm down.
"I know the direction," Zhong Qing shouted loudly into the air among the many ordinary people who were running away in panic: "Those who can cross the city wall, come with us!"
Those who can cross the city wall are probably evolutionaries; even if there are ordinary people who are agile and can cross the wall, they cannot keep up with their speed. Batou De, who had always seemed to be in a dream, suddenly heard this.
After reacting, he hurriedly shouted: "We can't leave ordinary people behind, otherwise they will be really doomed. We can take as many as we can -"
"How many ordinary people are there here? How many can we bring with us?" Zhong Qing asked rhetorically.
"Then you can go on your own!" Badou De suddenly became angry and stopped suddenly, causing Lin Sanjiu to stagger.
"Can we use something to block the city road?" Lin Sanjiu didn't want to see ordinary people being slaughtered, and was also afraid that something would happen to Badou De if he stayed, so he immediately said: "Only by stopping their spread can we save as many people as possible.
Some people. Let’s do this. Zhong Qing will lead the people outside and you and I will stay to block the city road.”
"Yes," Batou De was reminded, as if the blocked water channel in his mind was opened, he immediately rushed into action. He waved his hand and shouted to the people in the city road: "You all follow this person outside.
, hurry up! Local evolvers of Fanjia City, help the people in the city, please, we stay to stop it - we stay to block the city road!"
At that moment, Lin Sanjiu realized that the words he almost blurted out were "stop the mutants", but changed his words at the last moment.
In other words, he is still holding on to illusions and is unwilling to admit that ordinary people in Fanjia City have really begun to mutate?
Of course, now was not the time to delve into his thoughts; when Batou De turned around and rushed back, Lin Sanjiu had no choice but to follow him - Zhong Qing hesitated for a moment, stamped his feet, and ran in the opposite direction.
, while running and shouting: "Everyone, follow me!"
From behind the corner of the city road in the distance, Lin Sanjiu had already heard the buzzing sound, like the sound of thousands of wasps swarming together; there were countless ordinary people and evolvers, some with their children, and some
Pulling her companion, countless feet hit the ground, crying and screaming, and rushed past her like rolling thunder.
Lin Sanjiu and Badou De looked at each other, and their expressions were not very good: they had never heard such a huge wasp-like sound just now, and it was obvious that there was a new mutant in front of them.
"What's in front of you?" Batou De tried to pull someone to ask, but there was no one willing to stop and explain - the evolver didn't even look at him, waved his hand, shouted "Run quickly", and then
He blended into the crowd of people running for their lives.
"We don't have much time," Lin Sanjiu shouted to Batou De, feeling that his voice had finally penetrated the city road that was shaken slightly by various noises, and the sound reverberated and increased in volume: "Use
Something on the side of the road!"
As she spoke, she pushed away the faces, shoulders and bodies that were rushing towards her like headless flies. When she finally rushed out of the crowd and faced an empty city road, she hurriedly grabbed a heavy machine beside the road.
He picked up the wooden cabinet and threw it into the middle of the road. Batou De, who followed closely, did not dare to waste time. He picked up a large bed that belonged to an unknown person, knocked it sideways and threw it next to the cabinet;
After a while, the roadblock quickly took shape amidst the buzzing and trembling sounds that were getting closer and closer, and as the ground shook and trembled - this kind of roadblock composed of tables, chairs, bed cabinets, I'm afraid it won't be able to stop the mutants for long.
Lin Sanjiu only hoped that she could block it for a while, at least giving the crowd behind her a little more chance to escape - then again, if Fanjia City wasn't such a layered, narrow and long structure, how could she be so constrained?
"Coming!" Batou De shouted; as soon as the second word came out, he was hit by a sudden loud buzzer and was completely drowned out - at that moment, it was like facing a tsunami.
Knowing this, Lin Sanjiu suddenly had a clear thought in her heart: the roadblock was over.
She grabbed Badou De and threw him on the ground at her feet. At the same time as she squatted down, the iron scales were called out again, blocking the two of them behind the temporary shield.
Amidst the huge sound waves and wind force that exploded during the crash, the roadblocks the two men had just piled up in a hurry turned into pieces and powder without any resistance, and were blown into the air by the strong wind. Lin Sanjiu died.
Holding against the iron scale, they were almost unable to squat due to the thumping force on it; they were as if they were in the middle of a sandstorm, with countless shadow fragments rushing out from both sides of the iron scale, scratching their skin.
pain.
When she stood up from behind the iron scales, the mutants—or should I say mutants?—that were spreading along the city road happened to be in front of her.
At this time, Badou De, who got up in a hurry, breathed a sigh of relief: "That's great, he's not a human being."
Lin Sanjiu did not dare to look away, but she understood what Batou De meant without turning her head - he felt that the thing in front of him could not have been mutated from a human.
It really doesn't look like a human being, at first glance.
What came out from behind the corner were a large number of thick black "long ropes"; they crowded the entire city space one by one, each one was as thick as a person, and between the "long ropes" hung several
Break up the debris, clothing and utensils stained in the city road.
They are not curved like vines, nor are they completely straight like steel bars. They have an indescribable weird texture: each black "long rope" is sharp at the front and thick at the back, and is slightly covered with a layer of oily light.
, becoming more and more dark and shiny; they seem to be full of elasticity, and when they strive to extend forward, they still have a flower-like arc.
I thought that when they crossed the city road, the black "long rope" would make a buzzing sound like thousands of wasps flapping their wings on the city wall bricks. Now they seemed to realize that there was an obstacle ahead, and stopped for a moment.
With such momentum, they jostled each other in the air and trembled slightly, as if they were watching the two of them.
"...Look again." Lin Sanjiu whispered as he looked at the countless black tips that were trembling in the air in front of him and were as big as a human head.
In the peripheral vision, Badou De's face became increasingly ugly.
Yes, anyone who has ever lost an eyelash will feel that the large group of black cords in front of them looks more and more familiar.
"No, it's impossible. How are we going to fight this?" He wiped his face and murmured: "How about me, let's leave quickly..."
If every mutant has this kind of virtue, I am afraid that only by completely escaping from Fanjia City can they completely guarantee their own safety. However, Lin Sanjiu knew that he could not sit safely on the flying aircraft and look down.
The whole city suffered.
"There is no point in running now," she turned the iron scales in her hand and whispered, "Leave this one to me, and you go organize the people in the city to escape as soon as possible."
