Chapter 34: The Secret
"Huh...huh...huh..." A young man leaned against the wall of a ruins and gasped. He was holding a crossbow in his hand. Only the arrow rest on the crossbow arm was left.
One arrow, one already on the string and two daggers in the scabbards, these were the only weapons he had left.
There was a seriously injured middle-aged man lying at his feet. He was lying on the ground dying. The muscles in his chest seemed to have been scratched by some wild beast, and the internal organs inside could even be vaguely seen. The wound had turned black.
, rot, a faint stench mixed with pus and blood flowing from the wound from time to time, slowly seeping out from the wound.
The young man quietly poked his head outside the wall. After finding nothing unusual around him, he hurriedly squatted next to the middle-aged man and shouted anxiously: "Uncle Lei, Uncle Lei, how are you? Just hold on for a while.
In two hours at most, we can reach the Federation."
The middle-aged man named Uncle Lei smiled miserably, shook his head weakly, and said: "Xiao Yu, it's useless. I was scratched by a zombie. Even if I get to the federation, the people at the border inspection station can't let me go."
Go in. Just throw me here. Taking me with you will only become a burden. If they catch up, it will harm you."
The young man named Xiaoyu had tears in his eyes and shook his head silently. As a level 4 zombie hunter, how could he not understand the consequences of being injured by a zombie? But could he give up Uncle Lei? Disaster happened.
Finally, he was only 15 years old at the time. Both his parents were infected and he was the only one left. Once, when he was out looking for food, he was blocked by five zombies. Uncle Lei who was passing by saved him.
Since then, Uncle Lei has always treated him like his own son, saving his life from zombies time and time again. Even this time, Uncle Lei was injured because he wanted to save him. So, how could he leave Uncle Lei alone?
What about escaping for your own life? Even if you die, you must die together.
Looking at Xiao Yu's firm gaze, Uncle Lei shook his head with a wry smile and whispered: "Obey, Xiao Yu, Uncle Lei is bound to die. When you leave later, remember to kill me first and aim at my head.
Fight, so that I won’t turn into a zombie after I die. This time our discovery must be reported to the head of state in time. This is a major matter related to the safety of the entire federation. We cannot destroy us humans because of a little personal affair.
’s future.”
The young man struggled painfully, tears kept falling from his eyes. Uncle Lei was right. They went out on an exploratory mission this time, but they inadvertently discovered a shocking secret. Now they
They have been chased for 5 days and were overtaken several times, but they relied on their own skills to repel the enemy. The last time they were overtaken, Uncle Lei was injured in order to save himself.
Suddenly, the face of Uncle Lei, who was lying on the ground dying, suddenly changed. He struggled and put his ear to the ground. After listening carefully for a while, he raised his head and shouted anxiously to Xiao Yu: "Quick, kill him quickly."
I then ran, and the pursuers came after me."
Xiaoyu plopped down and knelt beside Uncle Lei, shaking her head desperately: "No, Uncle Lei, I can't do it, and I don't want you to die."
After listening to Xiaoyu's words, Uncle Lei raised his hand angrily and wanted to slap him, but he was too weak. The action of turning over and putting his head to the ground almost used up all the strength he had accumulated. His hand
As soon as I lifted it up, it fell down.
So he could only shout angrily: "Have you forgotten your profession? You are a zombie hunter, how can you be so weak? You disappoint me so much. Do you want to see your most respected Uncle Lei turn into a zombie?"
Are you happy to let other hunters kill you?"
After listening to Uncle Lei's words, Xiaoyu's eyes turned blood red, "Ah..." I roared with grief and anger, took out a dagger and stabbed it hard into Uncle Lei's eye socket. Uncle Lei's body twitched twice.
, then there was no movement, Xiao Yu kowtowed three times next to Uncle Lei's body, and he seemed not to feel even the blood flowing from the knock on his forehead.
He looked at Uncle Lei's body and murmured: "Uncle Lei, I'm leaving first. I must rush back to the Federation as soon as possible to tell the Head of State about this. You should stay here for a while, and wait until I come back from the Federation.
, I will come back to collect the body for you."
With that said, he stood up and quickly disappeared into the ruins.
Not long after he left, several figures covered in black robes appeared on the spot. They looked around and found that the target they were looking for had already fled. One of them said: "He escaped.
, this place is too dangerous, we must leave as soon as possible." His voice was not like a normal human voice, it seemed hoarse and dry, as if he was speaking hoarsely on purpose, which made people feel extremely uncomfortable.
At this time, another equally hoarse voice sounded: "I agree, I can already feel the danger approaching."
After reaching an agreement, several figures quickly turned around and jumped out in the direction they came from, quickly disappearing into the ruins. As for Uncle Lei's body lying on the ground, they never took a look at it.
Vincent is sitting in the office at this time, very busy. Of course, he is not busy with national affairs now. He does not need to worry too much about the two wars now. Although the Northeast has only sent 4 mechas, but energy weapons
Fighting against hot weapons, the gap of an era is basically
It cannot be made up for by the number of people. But the massacre began in Dashan to the southwest. The tenacity and intensity of the resistance of the southwest people far exceeded Vincent's expectations, so he rarely remained silent about the massacre in Dashan.
, and silence often represents acquiescence.
Now what he has to worry about and have a headache is one of the most important things in his life - getting married. Hongxiu was so picky about her wedding that it was unbelievable. Helpless Vincent had to do it himself and throw away some irrelevant things.
He has to take care of these trivial matters when it comes to urgent matters. Fortunately, he has Li Jing by his side.
Li Jing would help him handle many small things. Although Li Jing was disappointed for a while when she learned that Vincent was getting married, she didn't know what she thought. Anyway, she became normal after two days. Not only
My mood became very happy, and I enthusiastically helped Vincent prepare for the wedding.
Hongxiu also likes the little girl Li Jing. Unlike Ai Mengmeng and Shi Lingling, Hongxiu has a rare fondness for the little girl Li Jing, so with her help, Hongxiu is very happy. At this moment
, the SS at the door called Li Jing and said that there was a young man outside who claimed to be a zombie hunter. He said that he had discovered a huge secret during his exploration and needed to report it to Vincent immediately.
