Half an hour later, Deng Yun woke up from his nightmare. He was sweating profusely and looked out the car window. The vegetation on the side of the street was slowly moving backwards, not much faster than a bicycle.
Seeing the dense vegetation outside, we haven’t left the countryside yet.
"You can drive faster," he said.
Shen Yi, who was driving intently, was startled when he found that Deng Yun woke up with a happy expression: "Brother Yun, have you slept well? We are about to leave the suburbs."
"It's okay." Deng Yun replied.
Shen Yi increased the speed of the car, hesitated and couldn't help but ask: "Brother Yun, why don't you look for something that can solve the virus first?"
"How many people do you think are alive now?" Deng Yun asked without answering.
"Um... there shouldn't be many left, they are basically zombies." Shen Yi looked sad.
"Then what's the point of solving this virus? Now I just want to save the people I want to save." Deng Yun said lightly.
After experiencing so many things, he understands one thing: if someone doesn't do it for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth. His father was killed just because he wanted to save too many people.
"But... this is your father's last wish..." Shen Yi said with some reluctance.
"My dad didn't tell me the information because he didn't want anything to happen to me. It was his last wish that I live well." Deng Yun's tone weakened. When it comes to his father, even if he has accepted his death, he will inevitably feel sad in his heart.
"Why do you always ask me to go back to look for clues?" Deng Yun asked doubtfully.
"I...I came all the way from Baixi Mountain and worked hard to convey the information. Now I don't want to find clues. I am a little unwilling." Shen Yi replied.
Deng Yun remained silent and did not continue to talk to Shen Yi. He had two reasons for not looking for information clues. He had a hunch in his heart that searching for clues in the past would be dangerous, and he was worried about failure. If Uncle Hua Jiu's explanation was wrong
, he has to waste too much time.
He felt that he failed to save his father because he wasted too much time. This time he did not want to waste time saving his friend.
After entering college, he only had a close friend like Monkey. Having lost family ties, he didn't want to lose friendship again.
There was still some distance from the location, so he took out a lighter from his backpack and wanted to use his ability.
After half an hour of rest, he felt much better, the pain in his brain disappeared, and his desire to eat brain marrow was suppressed.
With a "pop" sound, the flame ignited.
The swaying flames resonated with his spirit, and there was a subtle connection between the two. When his heart moved, the flames rose, and when the connection was severed, the flames returned to their original appearance.
He extinguished the flame, raised his right hand, and concentrated on imagining the fire in his palm. No matter how hard he tried, there was no change in his hand.
Disappointed and shaking his head, he understood that his ability was similar to fire control, which required flames to exert its power. This would have great limitations in combat. You can't use a lighter in front of the enemy, right?
He suddenly thought of what the system said, that fire enchantment was deleted due to duplicate abilities. In other words, he still has the ability of fire enchantment.
Picking up the pistol, rolling down the car window, aiming at the leaves outside the window, thinking about adding flame to the bullet.
Pulling the trigger, the bullet came out of the chamber, and flames erupted in mid-air. Deng Yun's heart moved. The flames surged to the size of a fist and bombarded the leaves.
When the leaves were shattered, nearby branches and leaves were also ignited. He responded to the flames again, and the entire crown of the tree was swallowed up by the fire.
He could feel a large amount of mental energy draining away, and his brain began to hurt slightly, so he quickly cut off contact with the flame.
Seeing the effect of this attack, Deng Yun was surprised and happy. The flame enchantment skill is still there, and it has been greatly strengthened. Isn't this the fireball technique? It's just that the speed has been increased to the flame level, which is not something ordinary people can avoid.
When the enemy is hit, he can remotely control the fire and cause the enemy to spontaneously combust.
He was not happy for long. The desire to eat brains couldn't be suppressed and came over his heart. He couldn't help but look at Shen Yi's head.
Shen Yi saw Deng Yun's eyes in the rearview mirror, and his scalp felt numb again.
The car drove into the city and cleared away the zombies blocking the road. Deng Yun found a hot pot restaurant and endured the stench and ate spoiled pig brains.
He found a stationery store and found materials to repair the slingshot.
Along the way, the bullets are about to run out, and the slingshot is as convenient as it can be. Using local materials and equipped with current abilities, the damage is no worse than that of a pistol.
He moved a box of marbles from the stationery store and put it into the car, which made Shen Yi look confused. Although he had heard that the other party had used a slingshot to kill zombies before, he couldn't believe that this outrageous operation could work.
The two continued to drive, and when they were about to reach their destination factory, they encountered a group of corpses gathering on the street.
Under Shen Yi's unbelievable eyes, Deng Yun used a slingshot to kill all the zombies. The group of corpses was cleared, revealing the roadblocks on the street.
The entire street is blocked by all kinds of debris, including iron beds, iron tables, boxes and cabinets. Traces of this artificial accumulation appear here, proving that there are survivors behind the barricades, and there are quite a few, otherwise the entire street would not be piled up.
Street obstacles.
Deng Yun looked around and found many bullet holes around the street. There were also rotting corpses on the roadside. There were also bullet marks on the corpses. This group of people had guns.
"Drive the car farther away and wait for me in the car. I'll go take a look nearby." Deng Yun said to Shen Yi.
"I'll go with you, we will take care of you," Shen Yi said.
"I'm not going to fight, I'm going to collect information. It's inconvenient to take you with me." Deng Yun explained.
Shen Yi stopped insisting, drove the car to a hidden place, and stayed in the car to wait.
Deng Yun had a slingshot on his waist, marbles in his pockets, and no backpack. He jumped on the iron bed frame, climbed over the obstacles, and fell behind.
There was no one within a hundred meters of him, so he gave up and headed in the direction of the factory.
After walking a few streets, I heard footsteps coming from across the street, separated by a row of buildings.
There are five of them, and listening to their conversation, it seems that they are patrolling.
"A nice girl came here today. She is really weak. You don't know. The way she begged for mercy almost made me faint from pleasure."
"I'm just telling you, your feet are so weak that you can't walk steadily... Hahaha..."
Several people laughed and quarreled with each other.
One of them couldn't help but interjected: "Can that woman give me a taste tonight?"
"Sorry, I didn't control my strength well last night and accidentally killed him. If you don't mind the corpse, go look for it now and it should still be usable."
Several people laughed again and their words were unbearable.
Deng Yun tightened the slingshot in his hand, his eyes full of murderous intent, these scumbags were just trying out their new abilities.
He heard the direction in which the people were walking, and came to the end of the street in advance to wait. The slingshot in his hand was already aimed at the intersection where the people were about to exit.
Chapter completed!
