Chapter 172 Surviving Humans(1/2)
A corner of the city, Xinfu Supermarket.
"Crack..."
There was a faint sound inside this silent building, and three figures walked quietly inside.
They carefully held the items on the shelves and put them into their backpacks, making sure not to disturb nearby alienated creatures.
Within a month, all kinds of vegetables in the fresh vegetable area were completely rotten and covered with moths, making them impossible to eat.
Only canned food, rice, incense, fungus, bacon and other items that can be stored for a long time can still be eaten.
"Eh..."
A small sigh came from the leading man's mouth, and he put the last bag of dried incense into a giant backpack.
Looking at the empty shelves in the distance, I couldn't help but sigh.
"There are not many supplies in the supermarket, so we have to move to a new location."
Behind him, a short-haired woman in sportswear comforted in a low voice: "There is nothing we can do, Brother Chen. After all, there are nearly fifty people in the camp waiting for our supplies. Naturally, the supplies in the supermarket will not be enough for us for a long time."
The leader, the man surnamed Chen, quite agreed with the woman's words.
"Yes, it's a good thing that I brought those fresh vegetables back at the first moment, otherwise this supermarket might not be enough to support our daily needs for ten days."
Finally, a tall young man also spoke: "Brother Renyi is always looking for us. If it hadn't been for my earlier suggestion to go out to look for supplies, we would have starved to death in that camp."
Having said this, he suddenly changed his tone and spoke in an extremely disgusting tone.
"But it has reached such a point that those cowardly guys who are afraid of death and open their mouths after food are still not satisfied with this, and even complain that the elder brother has not brought back enough things."
After a moment of pause, the tall man raised his right hand, positioned it like a blade, and said viciously.
"If you ask me, we should really bring out those who yell the loudest and kill them in front of them, so as to scare the monkeys and let these guys know who guarantees their daily food resources."
Seeing the tall man behind him becoming murderous, the man surnamed Chen quickly patted the man on the shoulder to wake him up from this state.
Xiao Wang is good at everything, he listens to orders carefully, has good fighting ability, and has a gentle attitude towards his team members.
But when facing ordinary survivors, the evil spirit on his body is still too strong.
"Xiao Wang, the members who stay in the camp are not without their efforts. They wash clothes, cook food, and research planting every day. By the way, I heard from Lao Li that they seem to have found vegetables that can be grown."
After hearing this, the tall young man seemed to have lost his temper, but he still spoke unconvinced.
"Brother, I admit that the members of Lao Li's group have indeed sincerely contributed to our camp, but there are always some guys who are lazy and do nothing all day long, without giving anything, just waiting for the food we give them."
Female team members also feel deeply about this.
"Wang Jian is right about this. If it weren't for the sake of being human beings, I would have driven them away."
The conversation between the two made the actual deputy leader of the camp, Chen Hu, fall into deep thought. It seemed that he was busy building the camp and searching for supplies all day long, but he ignored the phenomena inside the camp.
Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. This saying is true.
Even the camp with more than fifty people was divided into several factions, including members of the out-exploration faction led by Chen Hu.
Since they control the material income of the camp, most members have a high status.
Only the leader, Chen Hu, still maintained an attitude of treating everyone equally.
"Tap, step, step."
Suddenly, just as Chen Hu was thinking about the camp, there was a sound of footsteps outside the supermarket.
They have lived here for a long time and know that this is the sound of alienated creatures nearby.
Several people quickly fell silent, stopped talking, leaned down, and approached the window to check out the scene outside.
A group of four wolves and the human figure in the middle came into view inside the supermarket, and Chen Hu and others saw it.
The huge giant wolf had a pair of front claws that were sharp and sharp. Its limbs were full of muscles and were extremely explosive. It exuded a strong sense of oppression. This made several people feel as if they were trapped in the moment they just saw it. It was like an ice kiln, frozen all over and unable to move.
After a long time, when the four giant gray wolves were gone, their hearts began to beat slowly, pumping blood to their entire bodies, allowing the three of them to resume their actions.
"Ha ha..."
The woman in sportswear had the worst endurance among the three. She fell to her knees on the ground, panting slowly, and sweat continued to flow from the top of her forehead and dripped to the floor.
Although the man named Wang Jian was not as careless as the woman, his face was still pale, his eyes widened, and he remained silent as if he had suffered some kind of impact.
Chen Hu, the leader of the three, had studied ancient martial arts for several years before the change occurred, so he could barely withstand the aftermath of the oppression.
He said in a trembling low voice, his tone full of shock.
"It's scary... It's too scary... Even though I've seen hundreds of alienated creatures in January, I've never encountered such an oppressive creature. The strength of these four giant wolves may be even more powerful than that leopard." ."
Chen Jian also responded thoughtfully: "Huh~ Brother is right, the sense of oppression emanating from those four creatures was too strong. I just glanced at it, and my whole body froze in place, and I couldn't even escape. No."
As soon as he finished speaking, he recalled the human figure in the center of the Four Wolves and asked with some confusion.
"But, brother, I seem to see someone walking in the center of the group of giant wolves."
"Ha... Speaking of which, I seem to have seen it too. Brother Chen, what do you think is going on?"
The female team members who recovered also asked about the matter.
Chen Hu, who was expected by the two, lowered his head and pondered, recalling the events he had experienced since the mutation occurred.
"I don't know the specific situation, but I once heard Mr. Zheng say that it seems that there will be situations similar to these alienated creatures among us humans, with powerful abilities, including the ability to control beasts. ."
The Mr. Chen in Chen Hu's mouth was the city enterprise CEO he had protected when he was a bodyguard before the mutation. He knew a lot of internal information that ordinary people had not yet obtained at the time. He mentioned the existence of superpowers when chatting intentionally or unintentionally. Chen Hu remembered it in his heart.
Of course, this kind of people are also the ones who cherish their lives the most. As early as the moment the weather changed, they took their family on a private plane and left Lingtai City and never came back, leaving behind less important people like Chen Hu. bodyguard.
The tall young man's eyes lit up. If there were strong men of this level among the surviving humans, they might be able to drive out the beasts in Lingtai City, retake the city, get in touch with the outside world, and escape from the current situation.
.
"Brother, should we catch up with each other and have a good talk?"
Wang Jian's innocent answer made Chen Hu sigh inwardly.
He smiled at the other party and explained seriously.
"Xiao Wang, we can't approach each other rashly."
"First, if he is really a legendary superpower, why is he trapped in the small Lingtai City like us, unable to get out?"
"You know, not to mention powerful people, but ordinary people with a little bit of ability can buy air tickets and leave here. No matter how difficult it is, there are also national planes that can transport them. Only us, due to various reasons, can
Those who are too late to catch the last train will be left here."
"At the same time, if the opponent has the ability to control such a degree of alienated creatures, then why would he choose to stay in Lingtai City? Even if he cannot contact the outside world, he can still fly away from here by controlling the giant eagle."
"According to my judgment, the identity of the other party cannot be completely confirmed as a superpower, and further understanding is needed."
"Secondly, if he is not a superpower, but is a backup food for the wolves, or even a slave, then it would be a very dangerous act for us to approach rashly."
"Don't be suspicious. Since the mutation, I have watched the intelligence of this group of alienated creatures become higher and higher step by step, even reaching the level of resembling us humans. As far as I know, the macaque family once captured humans.
, brought him back to his lair, and tried to imitate our behavior, and the leopard also did similar behavior."
"To sum up, I think it is quite dangerous for the three of us to approach each other rashly. It is better to bring these items back to the camp first and then seriously think about how to contact each other."
After listening to the analysis of team leader Chen Hu, the other two people nodded seriously, feeling that it made sense.
Wang Jian also reflected on his own impatience, why he wanted to step forward without thinking. If it weren't for Brother Chen who held him back, he wouldn't have known how he died.
·Under Chen Hu's organization, the three of them packed up the food here again until the backpack, which was as tall as a person, was completely filled and no more could be stuffed in. Then they set off and left.
Chen Hu is worthy of being an experienced person. He walked lightly and came to the door. He opened the door slightly and looked into the distance. Only when he confirmed that there were no traces of other alienated creatures did he step out. The two people behind him were also very cautious.
There was a tacit understanding of following along.
The three of them walked quickly and disappeared into the dark streets.
.........
After several hours of running, Su Ming judged that his team was almost halfway through the journey.
Although he could not infer the time at this moment from the scenery in the sky, he estimated that it was close to dusk at this moment.
The top priority is to find a comfortable resting spot as a stopping place for the four wolves and the human Lin Zeming.
"Your Excellency, the Wolf King."
At this time, Lin Zeming on the side suddenly spoke.
Su Ming stopped moving forward and turned to look at the other person, waiting for his next words.
"Can I go back to the previous supermarket and conduct a search?"
When Lin Zeming saw the Wolf King looking at him, he quickly revealed his purpose.
Naturally, Su Ming could not refuse the sergeant's request. He knew that the things the other wolf ate and drank were completely different from those of the wolf he was waiting for.
When you must explore, go inside the city to find supplies for food and water for drinking.
Su Ming nodded slightly and sighed at the same time.
His silver-white eyes looked at Lin Zeming in front of him, as if to say, in this case, why didn't you propose it earlier?
Instead, they are now asked to go back the same way they came and go to the place they visited before, thereby delaying the team's journey.
