Prologue.Chapter Zero.Deep Forest 7
Under the gray sky, several hunters in fur coats came out of the forest talking and laughing, carrying some prey in their hands. They looked very happy talking and laughing. Not far away was a hunter with smoke rising from the stove.
Small mountain village.
This is an unknown small village near the Ural Mountains in Northern Europe. The population in the village is sparse and they have made a living by hunting for generations. They are several small ethnic groups, with a total of less than 300 people.
A simple and simple life is still maintained here, and people living here for generations have spent their lives happily in the small village.
No one wants to see the outside world. There are very few modern things in the village and can hardly be seen. The climate here is close to that of Siberia and it is still cold even in April.
The villagers live with the ice and snow all year round, and with the beasts in the forest. This mountain forest is enough to feed everyone in the village, and there are some fields near the village where some cold-resistant crops are planted. Although the harvest is affected by the climate
The relationship is not very good, but for the villagers, it is enough.
Among them, the most famous one in the village is the Valenza family. Their family has been good hunters for generations. However, there was a heresy in the Valenza generation. Those two brothers and sisters of the Valenza family did not
They chose to stay in the village and survive as hunters like their fathers, but ran to the city. However, they came back a while ago and would help the villagers transport some uneatable prey to a small town not far away.
Go there to sell, and then use the money you get from selling to buy some things back.
The small village has had some signs of modernization since last month. Although the villagers were reluctant to accept it at first, over time, they all accepted it.
However, some villagers still expressed dissatisfaction, but now the villagers are discussing the abnormal phenomenon they saw on the horizon yesterday morning. No one knows what happened. Since the huge fireball fell, the sky has begun to become gray.
of.
The sun doesn't feel any warmth on my body, and the air is bitingly cold. This is very abnormal for villagers who are used to living in the mountains and forests all year round.
Many people felt strange. At this time, a small truck was parked in the middle of the village, which was generally old. A man and a woman were standing next to the truck, bargaining with the villagers.
Both men and women are wearing fashionable modern clothes. They are very tall. The man is handsome and the woman is beautiful. She chews bubble gum in her mouth and blows bubbles from time to time. The woman looks very charming and her makeup looks pure and elegant.
In such cold weather, she still only wore a pair of hot pants, but she also wore a pair of sexy black patterned stockings and a pair of cute snow boots.
"You are back, hurry up and show me what you hunted!"
The woman said with a smile. Several male hunters did not dare to look directly at her. They lowered their heads, but they still took a few sneaky glances in between conversations.
The woman's name is Verla, who is the eldest daughter of the Valenza family. She is just 26 years old this year, and the boy's name is Fred, who is the second son of the Valenza family. When they were two children, the brother and sister followed their parents to a nearby town and have been together ever since.
He often ran away secretly, and finally convinced his parents. The local authorities also hoped that this small village could integrate into modern life, so they allowed the brother and sister to study in the small town.
In the end, the two of them successfully entered the top universities in the country with their intelligence. The town provided them with generous funds. They successfully completed college and worked in the city, but they both came back a while ago.
Their parents are already old, and they can also support their parents' lives, but they will not go to the mountains and forests. They will only help the residents of the village sell some things, and then use the money from the sales to buy some things in the town.
Then give it to the villagers.
This place is more than 30 kilometers away from the town, and it only takes more than half an hour to arrive. After the siblings lightly ordered the goods on the car, they were ready to set off. Their parents came over.
"Virla, the police chief called before. Is there something wrong?"
Vila looked at her father with hurried eyes, but she quickly said with a smile.
"I guess something was lost where we worked before."
"It's quite normal dad, don't worry about it."
As Fred spoke, he immediately looked at his sister and quickly changed the subject, chatting about some experiences. His father didn't pay attention. Soon the two siblings got in the car. These prey and some of the villagers' finished products were all comparable.
Popular items can be sold at a good price.
The two siblings got into the car, and the car kept starting up. This old car was bought from a farmer in the town. It can still be used, but it is already quite old.
The two siblings, who had not been to the city for a few days, planned to have a good meal later. The car slowly drove out of the town. At this time, Vierla directly tore off her clothes and took out a bag from her pocket.
He also let down his tied hair, changed his innocent look before, and lit a cigarette. His younger brother Fred drove the car, his expression became solemn.
"What should I do, sister? What if I get traced?"
Vila laughed, shook her head and said.
"With the IQs of those pigs, but the pigs' IQs are not low, they are much smarter than them. Don't worry Fred, no one will catch us."
Fred hummed, and his sister smiled tenderly and stretched out a hand to touch his forehead. Fred knew that the reason why his sister killed someone was because of his relationship, and things should not be like this.
The two siblings, who are simple by nature, stepped out into the wider world for the first time after they arrived at university. They were a little uncomfortable at first, but gradually they adapted to city life, but the people there were very hypocritical.
My sister was originally beautiful and pure, but she was pursued by many people when she first entered college. She was a bit shy and introverted, and many people secretly called Fred a sissy and gay.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The two siblings lived a very happy college life. Although the elder sister had countless suitors, she never agreed to anyone, and just when she was about to graduate
The night before, a man came into my sister's sight, but Fred didn't like him.
This man was very rich and directly helped the two siblings arrange jobs after graduation. At first everything was fine, but gradually Fred discovered this man's other side. He just coveted his sister's beauty and body.
There are many women in private, Fred reminded his sister, and the two siblings had a big quarrel for the first time.
After that, my sister still followed the man, but one day she suddenly apologized to herself, and she also started smoking and drinking, and she always shed tears.
Later, the man came to Fred and warned him not to talk behind his back. Fred ignored him at first. From the threat at the beginning to the beating later, the sister and the man broke up, and the two siblings were also lost.
They have jobs, but they plan to leave and go to other cities.
However, the man appeared and beat his sister angrily. Fred was very angry, but they were so weak that they had no way to leave. The man even threatened his sister that he would kill him if she dared to leave.
Perhaps the two siblings were born with the element of a hunter who would definitely find a way to save their lives in the face of threats. One night, they were forced to have no choice but to take action. Without any hesitation, the older sister took action and killed several of the man's friends on the spot.
Slaughtering, and when Fred thought everything was over, his sister thought of a way.
That night, they asked the man to come over with money. The two siblings worked together to kill the man, and then returned to the place of birth with the money.
The method that my sister came up with at that time was very clever, and she almost perfectly created the alibi of the two siblings. Fred was very scared when he came back, especially now that there was only one phone in the village, but the police chief called
come over.
At this time, Fred noticed that his sister's expression looked a little scary, and she stared at the glass window with evil eyes.
"Sister, how about we turn ourselves in? This way..."
Vierla suddenly picked up the shotgun on the back seat, loaded it directly, then turned around and said.
"No one can catch us. No matter who they are, if they dare to come to this mountain forest, I will definitely call them out."
After speaking, Vila patted his brother on the back of the head again. Fred continued to drive, and he could already see the town. It was a clean town. However, at this time, the two siblings discovered that something seemed to have happened in the town.
It was a big event, and many people gathered. After the two siblings stopped the car, they started to watch. It seemed that something big had happened. The self-defense forces in the town had been equipped with weapons, and some obstacles were set up in the town.
The citizens gathered together to receive weapons.
As soon as the two people passed by, the local police chief came over and started talking.
"A disaster beyond our imagination may have occurred yesterday. Now many people may want to come to our town. You two should come and help. Get your weapons and go to the road outside the town. No one is allowed to come in."
Bang
Just when the two siblings were stunned, gunshots rang out from a warehouse not far away. The sheriff immediately led the Self-Defense Forces over, and the two siblings followed the arrangement, picked up their weapons and followed.
"Please, let us stay here, we won't cause trouble."
The whole warehouse was full of people, and at the door were people from the town. They held up guns and threatened the people in the warehouse to leave the town, but many people begged, some asked for the law, and some planned to pay, but the local people
Extremely angry and wants everyone inside to leave.
"This is all our belongings, and we can give them to you to let us live here."
snap
The leader of the townspeople directly took the money from the man's hand.
"This is just some scrap paper, get out of our town."
At the moment when the two siblings didn't know what was happening, the sheriff opened fire. Accompanied by bursts of horrified shouts, the man fell in a pool of blood. He covered his legs and screamed in pain. The sheriff threw
He gave the man a roll of styptic tape, then pointed the gun at everyone.
"Either leave or die here. The shot won't miss next time."
Finally, the people in the warehouse started to move, and many people were crying. They had fled here from the big city overnight, and most of the people were coming here. At this time, the two siblings also noticed this.
There are some unexplained red spots on people's cheeks, which is why the Sheriff is determined to drive them away.
Sheriff Redes is nearly 60 years old. There was a serious plague here 30 years ago. Many people died at that time. It was those outsiders who came to this remote place to take refuge and brought the plague with them.
When they came in, many people died. Redes was a survivor of the plague. As well as the unexplained fireball falling from the sky yesterday, Redes speculated that a big problem had occurred. All communications were interrupted, and the people who came over were getting more and more.
Come more and more.
"Everyone, listen up. If you want to survive, you must not let anyone in. Anyone who dares to come in will be shot directly if they don't listen."
As he spoke, the sheriff loaded a gun and put it directly in Vierla's hand, then patted her on the shoulder and glanced at Fred again.
"You two are the children of hunters. You should know what will happen if too many people eat the prey together."
Verla nodded, Fred looked a little scared, and the Sheriff patted them on the shoulder.
"Go ahead kids."
The town is built in a pass surrounded by mountains. There is only one road into the town. If you want to enter the other roads, you need to climb up the mountain. The Sheriff looked at the townspeople taking action and relaxed a little. He knew very well that if
If too many people are allowed in, the place will be in chaos within a few days, and the supply of food and water will be seriously insufficient.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The town has a population of less than 3,000, and people driving vehicles from outside have blocked the long road. Many people come here on foot. The Sheriff does not want to
They don't care about the life and death of those city people, because they didn't care about this place in the past. The townspeople and people in nearby villages are self-sufficient. Very few people from the city set foot here. Occasionally, they just come to play, but for this
People in remote areas and cities are naturally arrogant and look down on others, thinking they are country bumpkins.
The Sheriff has seen a lot of people like this. The main reason is that if too many people come in, it will collapse.
Shocking shouts came, mixed with anger, and the two siblings arrived at the entrance of the nearly 30-meter-wide town. The place had been arranged into a checkpoint, and sandbags had been set up one by one. The townspeople raised their hands in fear.
The weapons inside are confronting people on the highway.
Vila looked at these people. He probably knew what they wanted to do, to enter the town. She also noticed the red spots and blisters on the skin of these people. They insisted that this was not a virus, but an overdose.
Radiation, I just hope to be able to enter the town to avoid the current disaster.
Faced with the louder shouts in front of them, the townspeople also became afraid. The people who gathered on the opposite side to enter the town were getting closer and closer. There were only about 100 villagers guarding the entrance of the town. Everyone was afraid.
Don't know what to do.
At this time, Verla walked over step by step, her eyes becoming more and more calm, and at this time the people who were kicked out also came over, and the crowd on the opposite side became even more angry. Some people even held up their children, saying that at least let the children
Go in.
Fred couldn't help it anymore and walked over.
"Why don't those children..."
"Remember, Fred, once a breakthrough is opened for human beings, it will be very scary. Once anyone is let in, the situation that follows will be uncontrollable."
Verla raised the gun in his hand, and the people who were pushed out of the town cried feebly. The Sheriff also came over at this time, bringing more townspeople and weapons.
"Listen clearly, the only thing we can guarantee is to deliver porridge once a day. Please bring utensils that can serve porridge. This is the minimum mercy we can provide. If any of you wants to enter the town, I will definitely shoot you.
of."
The man who had been bruised on his leg walked over, which seemed to have the effect of stopping him, and the excited people outside the town began to disperse.
The situation seemed to have calmed down. In front of me was a straight highway, filled with cars and full of people.
At this time, not far away, billowing smoke suddenly rose. Although it seemed not far away, the Sheriff's expression became serious. This was a town close to them. There were nearly 50 kilometers of mountain roads, and the straight-line distance was probably 30 kilometers.
Less than kilometers.
What Redes was worried about happened. He strengthened his confidence and was determined not to let these people in. After a while, when it was approaching 11 o'clock, several large pots were brought over. Redes asked the villagers to start
Cook porridge.
As Redes said, this is the minimum kindness that can be given to these outsiders, and not much flour is put into each pot.
Soon a long queue formed. Many people came over with anything that could hold the porridge and started serving the porridge. The crowd behind them also poured in along the mountains and forests. Many people were already very hungry.
There were many people who had not brought food or had already finished eating. The two siblings also saw a dispute happening in the back, which seemed to be over food.
"You know Fred, there are too many people on this planet, enough to destroy everything."
Redes is discussing with the members of the Self-Defense Force about patrol shifts, and that patrols must be carried out in some areas on the edge of the town, because there will always be people who do not follow the rules.
Everyone looked at the people who were having disputes in the distance as if they were facing a formidable enemy. Not everyone wanted to see this, but it must be prevented. Now the townspeople also agreed with the Sheriff's policy and resolutely
No outsiders are allowed to enter the town.
At this time, many people carrying weapons on the road had reached a consensus. They planned to first observe the terrain, then explore the nearby mountains, and then suddenly launch an attack.
"Those bastard country bumpkins, you must give them a good look."
More and more people gathered, and no one wanted to stand on the side of the road waiting to die, so some people began to make plans.
"This place cannot be defended."
Just when a group of people were discussing the patrol position, Vilar came over, Fred was trying to persuade Vilar, and Redes looked at Vilar worriedly.
"Girl, what do you think we should do?"
"They will definitely take action tonight. Many of them should be armed. We can't defend this place with just the people and weapons. We need to move things away during the day and move them to a safer place. At night, once
If there is an attack anywhere, we can retreat directly. We can go to the village where we live. There is a mine that has stopped mining nearby. We can choose to be condescending and use that place as our base."
Redes took a look at the situation outside, and then looked at the town. He was a little reluctant, but finally agreed with Villar's plan. Their purpose was just to be able to live after entering. It seemed that the disaster outside
It was so serious that they were willing to abandon everything and run into the mountains.
It would be fine if there were only a few hundred people, but if thousands of people flooded in all of a sudden, the town would collapse in an instant, and the food would not be able to satisfy everyone.
Then Redes summoned everyone in the town except those who were guarding the pass, and asked them to move all the supplies to the abandoned mine outside the town. It was less than 3 kilometers away from there, even if there were no vehicles
, relying on the townspeople, they can also evacuate the town.
The townspeople who had noticed something was wrong began to move. They all knew that there were many people coming from outside, and the smoke and dust floating in the sky in the distance was getting larger and larger.
The two siblings were still guarding behind the pass. At this time, Virla noticed that someone was moving a car, as if they wanted to make way for some cars behind them. Virla knew exactly what they were going to do, and let some sturdy cars serve as the vanguard. Suddenly,
Launch an attack and rush over.
The townspeople also noticed it, and one of them said angrily.
"We have provided porridge to these white-eyed wolves."
Virla took her brother's trembling hand. She smiled and put her forehead against his.
"You go carry things with them, it's okay Fred, it's okay."
Verla did not feel at ease, but her heart was beating non-stop, but she knew one thing very well. If she did not want to die, she would only have to take up arms, and she must not have any mercy. This would be extremely fatal.
Redes came over and looked at Vila with no fear in his eyes, which was completely different from other townspeople.
"You kill someone!"
Verla immediately looked at Redes alertly, and Redes patted her shoulder comfortingly.
"They have called more than 10 times, but every time I said you and your brother have not come back."
For a moment, Verla looked at Redes in shock. She didn't know why Redes wanted to help her.
"Don't worry, you and Fred both grew up here. You still remember when I gave you lessons before, only you and your brother were listening carefully, while the other children were playing around."
Vila showed a smile and thought about it carefully. She has had a relatively good relationship with Redes since she was a child.
"Hopefully tonight won't be too bad."
Redes said, and Vila shook her head.
"If you don't want anyone to die, just ask everyone to evacuate when the sun sets, but they will definitely follow. The supplies may have to be moved until night. Without food and drink, people here will die too.
.”
All this is an extremely difficult choice for Redes, but it is the only way to do it. Ensuring the safety of supplies is the primary factor.
"You know, this place used to be called Winter City, and there once was a king."
Redes said, and Vila smiled.
"That ancient castle whose shape is no longer visible."
The two of them smiled, but their eyes became sharp at this time. They had already begun to move some vehicles with heavier fronts. Redes glanced at the watch. It was already 4:38 pm, not long before the sun set.
