Chapter 800 Blood epidemic research, the power from blood!
On the southern coast of the New World, there is a saying that has been circulating among adventurers all year round.
I would rather live alone as a ghost in the wilderness than go to a refugee camp to stay warm and find comfort.
It's about how dangerous the refugee camp here is.
Every day, countless people in places like this are on the verge of life and death for various reasons, struggling to survive.
Every day, countless people are working secretly here to survive by robbing the same kind of property.
People here are extremely afraid of death, but they are not afraid of the actual moment of death.
Once you are targeted in a place like this, if you don't have strong strength to protect yourself, those dead bones in the wilderness are the best example.
December 14, the eighth year of the last calendar year, in the blink of an eye, it was the third day since the Tianyuan Fleet left the Fu'an United Territory.
After losing this best hope, the entire refugee camp became extremely depressed in just two days.
Although they are very reluctant to admit that they have been abandoned, the iron evidence is in front of them, and anyone will feel a little desperate.
Early morning.
People were coming and going on the path where the coffins were parked in the tent camp. Many people were carrying small bags and hurriedly walked out of the camp with their heads lowered.
Of course, this does not mean that they feel that the camp is hopeless and want to leave.
But for many days, the food around the camp has been consumed by tens of thousands of people. If you want to find new food, you have to go further.
They got up earlier and set out earlier so that they could return to the camp before darkness fell.
The clouds are misty, the mountains are cold and the water is cold, and the place is crowded and silent.
Living by the river, there are no mountains to block it, and the cold wind in winter is even colder, blowing so hard that many people move forward with their necks hunched and their heads covered.
Mixed in among these people, Zhou Xun also hurried out with his own luggage and homemade hunting weapons.
In fact, he had already accumulated enough supplies in his tent to survive the entire winter alone.
But the reason why I follow these people now is because
"My appetite is getting bigger and bigger. I was still rich eating the supplies before, but with my current appetite, I'm afraid"
"More than three times!"
Walking out of the camp, we came to a deserted place.
Zhou Xun took out the dry and hard cake on his chest, took a vicious bite, chewed and swallowed hard.
The intake of carbohydrates barely relieved his burning stomach, but the urgency from the inside still made him feel hot and uncomfortable.
Various symptoms showed that he was ill, and that his illness was not serious.
The blood plague that most people in the camp were suffering from, after being exposed to it for so many days, finally spread to him.
Although his symptoms were a bit strange compared to most people's, there were tens of thousands of people in the camp, so there were quite a few people who were just as strange as him.
Zhou Xun knew it very well based on the experience of his predecessors.
If you cannot ensure adequate food intake, your body will quickly weaken and there will be no chance of recovery.
Only continuous high-calorie supplementation can barely maintain energy and combat effectiveness.
"I am the only one who will die if he falls down. He must cheer up!"
Zhou Xun murmured in his mouth, and a frightening scarlet flashed in his eyes.
His desire for war has made him successful in hunting recently.
Even in the face of those mutated creatures that he didn't dare to challenge before, he suddenly has the courage now.
Only today, he had just left the camp not long ago and had not yet entered the area where he usually hunts.
Wu Dao, a thin figure with a hint of madness in his eyes, suddenly appeared behind him.
"who?"
Zhou Xun immediately turned his head and looked at the place where the sound came from.
What surprised him was that these five people didn't have any hidden thoughts. When they saw him, they walked out directly.
They glanced up and down directly, showing a sense of looking at "food".
"I have blood plague No. 3. If you eat me, you will die faster!"
Grabbing the long wooden bow hanging on his back, Zhou Xun skillfully bent the bow and set an arrow, and slowly moved to higher ground.
His eyes were fixed on the movements of the five people, and he felt a thorny feeling.
In a crazy refugee camp, anything can happen.
When they are about to reach a dead end, people who have no bottom line will be more tolerant of themselves and commit some evil deeds that were previously unimaginable.
Although he had never seen these five people before, the red tiger head badges on their chests always showed their identities.
Blood Tiger Gang.
The third largest gang in the refugee camp.
The gang members were all infected with Blood Plague Zero. After surviving the extreme weakness, some aspects of their bodies were greatly strengthened.
"Hehehehe, I know"
The leader of the five took a step forward and let out a hoarse laugh, as if he was suppressing something.
"Boy, your meat doesn't taste good, but we are hungry, we are very hungry."
"I can give you food. I'll give you whatever I bring." Zhou Xun took out three large cakes from his chest, picked them up and put them back again after giving a signal.
His hand never left the bow and arrow, always on alert.
"It's not enough. There are five of us, how can three pieces of cake be enough!"
"Don't go too far." Zhou Xun's eyes narrowed, and the heat in his heart made him want to just draw the bow and shoot.
But reason told him that if he offended the Snow Tiger Gang, he might not be able to stay in the Fu'an United Territory.
In the cold winter, he wanted to migrate to the next territory, but he didn't know what kind of danger he would encounter along the way.
"Don't worry, don't worry, we don't have to take your cake, as long as you tell us"
"Wherever you hide your supplies, we will let you go!"
"What?" Zhou Xun was shocked, but his face remained calm as he said, "I don't understand what you are talking about."
"You don't understand?"
"Hahaha, you actually said you don't understand?" Before he finished speaking, the Blood Tiger Gang member who spoke suddenly moved.
His thin legs burst out with terrifying speed, and he was about to rush forward almost instantly.
However, Zhou Xun, who has always been wary of the five people, is not an energy-saving lamp.
Just when the man took two steps, a sharp arrow flew past.
Nail the opponent's right leg hard!
"Ah!" A shrill scream rang out, and the iron arrow penetrated three-thirds of his flesh. The man immediately fell to the ground in pain and rolled on the ground.
When the other four people who were a little slower saw this, they could only stop and stand there fearfully.
"Boy, do you know what you just did?"
"He is Shunhu, the ninth-ranked leader of our Blood Tiger Gang. How dare you take action against him?"
"What the hell Shunhu, whoever dares to take a step forward, my next arrow will not be in the thigh!"
Zhou Xun licked his lips, and the expression on his face became fierce.
"Very good, very good!"
Dragging Shunhu on the ground, the remaining four people did not dare to step forward and could only retreat slowly with harsh words on their lips.
But when he saw these four people disappearing, Zhou Xun frowned slightly and turned around to leave.
In the dry forest.
After dragging Shunhu for more than ten minutes, the five members of the Xuehu Gang stopped.
"I didn't expect this kid to be a tough guy. Anyway, an orphan like him is just a little braver than normal people."
Biting the rag, Shunhu forcibly reached out and pulled hard at the arrow.
Wow!
Black and red blood burst out. Fortunately, the arrow was not a triangle, but a flat angle.
After pulling out the arrowhead and sprinkling healing powder on it, Shunhu was sweating profusely in pain, but at least his life was saved.
"Boss, are we going to let this go?"
"Yes, the little he keeps in his tent is only enough for seven days. That kid definitely has a lot of supplies hidden!"
"That old boy Arthur is really tough. Even if we ask about his daughter, he won't tell us where the supplies are hidden."
Seeing Shun Hu slowing down, the four people surrounding him couldn't help but speak out.
After getting used to robbing ordinary people's lives, it is nonsense to let them go hunting again.
After all, compared with ferocious mutated creatures, it is not as easy as competing against the same kind.
And it is not surprising that as long as you catch a fat sheep, you can collect enough supplies for a week or even a month at once.
"Of course we have to continue. Regardless of whether he has supplies or not, if he dares to shoot me, he will die!"
"When you get back, arrest that old boy Arthur and his daughter. If he doesn't tell me, I will let his daughter die in front of him!"
Shunhu's face was as painful as gold paper, but the words in his mouth still made people shudder.
"Boss, the lord has issued an order not to use force in the camp. If we openly disobey it"
"What are you afraid of? Just lure them out. The lord didn't say you can't do it outside the camp."
Whoosh!
There was a rapid friction sound of air.
Shunhu's words are forever stuck in his throat!
On his forehead, there was an arrow flying into it at this moment, and the tail of the arrow was still swaying, exuding a terrifying power!
"No, he's coming"
Whoosh!
Realizing that it was Zhou Xun who had left and returned, the four of them immediately reacted and tried to hide behind the bunker.
But just as they stood up, another feather arrow flew past, taking away one person's life.
"Zhou Xun, Zhou Xun, if you kill Shun Hu, the Blood Tiger Gang will definitely not do it."
"No, no, we will keep it secret for you, as long as you are willing."
Whoosh.
The remaining three people killed one more person, leaving only two people.
Unlike guns, bows and arrows naturally have excellent concealment in such a complex environment.
Until now, they still haven't found each other.
"Don't kill me, we'll tell you. Yes, we'll tell you where Shunhu's supplies are hidden."
"Let us go, I'll take you to get his supplies."
Whoosh.
The feathers and arrows were still emotionless, like the winter sun, so cold that it made people shiver.
Realizing that he was the only one left, the last member of the Blood Tiger Gang suddenly seemed to have discovered something and rushed out. His arm muscles were filled with blood and tripled in size.
He suddenly uprooted a small tree next to him and waved it around like crazy.
I don’t know if it was an accidental attack, but as the trunk hit a big tree, Zhou Xun’s figure fell from the top.
Goo, creak.
With the buffer of branches, although he didn't break any bones after the fall, he still made Zhou Xun dizzy.
By the time he regained consciousness, the last members of the Blood Tiger Gang had already charged to his side, preparing to smash down the small tree.
"Don't kill me, I'll tell you where the supplies are hidden!"
In desperation, Zhou Xun shouted.
Sure enough, the man was obviously stunned, giving him time to roll on the spot to avoid the attack.
Climbing up, Zhou Xun subconsciously wanted to touch the bow and arrow behind him, but was shocked to find that the wooden bow just happened to hang on a branch when he fell.
Although it gave him a buffer, it also put him in crisis at this time.
"what to do?"
He took out the dagger from his waist and held it in his hand. Zhou Xun looked around anxiously.
The opponent has entered a blood plague state. It seems that he is a guy who has strengthened his strength and is not superior in speed.
If he wants to run now, there is really no problem.
But if this man goes back and tells the Blood Tiger Gang that he killed these four people, there will be trouble next.
With a fierce look in his eyes, Zhou Xun decided not to run away and calmly focused all his attention on the other party.
To run is to die.
If you don't run, you may still live.
Even if he pays a certain price, he must win this life-and-death battle!
"My strength is comparable to that of a tiger or a wolf. Boy, what are you going to do to fight against me?"
"Is it just this little dagger?" Holding the small tree, Dalihu laughed wildly and rushed over.
Although his movement speed is slow, his shooting speed is not affected at all.
After being hit several times in a row, Zhou Xun managed to dodge in time, but was still hit once and his waist suddenly swelled.
"No, his power is too great. I can't confront him head-on."
"We must find a way to consume his physical strength first, so that there will be flaws!"
Knowing that he could not confront the opponent head-on, Zhou Xun could only continue to dodge and avoid getting hurt as much as possible.
But what he didn't expect was that just after he had the idea that the other party was too powerful.
However, an unprecedented strength and warmth suddenly emerged from his body.
At the same time, the heart in the chest began to beat violently, and the heart rate instantly rose to over 170!
"What, what happened?"
Rolling to the side again, Zhou Xun still couldn't figure out what happened just now.
But at this moment, his mind reacted quickly, and he quickly said silently: "I want speed, I want speed!"
The idea was generated, and the warm current similar to before appeared again.
A new force appeared on his left calf, bringing a slight change in speed.
At the same time, the heart rate also increased again, reaching around 180.
"I can go faster, I can go faster, give me a little more speed!"
Between life and death, just a slight change in speed made him feel that the powerful tiger in front of him seemed to have a flaw.
Zhou Xun clutched his chest, still thinking silently in his heart.
But this time, the left and right legs changed at the same time, which put unimaginable huge pressure on the heart.
Outwardly, the heart rate directly exceeded 205, reaching the human limit of 210!
"Enough! Enough!"
The speed suddenly increased by at least 50%, and the help it brought was enough for him to completely see Dalihu's flaws.
Just when the opponent just lifted up the small tree, he suddenly stared at his feet and ran to the side.
When the powerful tiger reacted, he tried to sweep away.
But this time, unexpectedly, before he could sweep out, the opponent had already circled behind him.
In desperation, he put down the small tree and tried to fight it with his fist.
What a pity.
"Lord, I didn't say that you stupid pigs can't be killed outside the camp!"
The dagger penetrated the neck, bringing with it a trace of poignant blood.
The next second, as more blood spilled out, Dalihu's blood-congested arms shrank down as if they had been deflated.
He fell to the ground weakly, trying to cover his neck, but he didn't even have the strength to raise his hands.
"Ha, hahaha, in the end, I won!"
Zhou Xun fell to the ground, raised his weak arm and placed it on his chest that was rising and falling rapidly.
Maintaining his extreme heart rate while fighting, even for just ten seconds, made him feel light and giddy, reaching the edge of sudden death.
But when the strange power was released, the beating heart did not stop.
But fortunately, his heart rate finally stopped increasing and began to slowly decrease slightly, making him no longer feel so uncomfortable.
“Looks like I don’t have time to go today.”
"Who is it!"
Creak.
Just as I felt lucky to have survived, I suddenly heard a crisp sound next to me.
Zhou Xun's face changed wildly, and he struggled to get up to defend himself.
But he had just relaxed, and now he had no strength. Not only did he not stand up, he almost fell down.
And not far from him, there was a place where the voice sounded.
A figure like an eagle suddenly fell from the sky and landed on the ground, splashing countless dust.
Compared to when he fell hastily just now, this man was obviously much stronger. He only squatted down slightly on his knees to alleviate the impact.
But this was not what shocked Zhou Xun.
In his field of vision, this man in black robes, his exposed skin, turned out to be so healthy, exuding a faint bronze light.
Moreover, not even a black robe can cover the bulging muscles all over his body. Looking from top to bottom, he is obviously more than three times stronger than the members of the Blood Tiger Gang just now!
"Damn it, he has such a figure, and his fighting power is absolutely extraordinary. Even when I was in my prime, I might not be able to win."
"Now."
Seeing the other party approaching step by step, Zhou Xun felt even colder in his heart.
He wanted to call upon the magical power just now to appear.
But there was a huge disparity in strength. Facing this man, even with hidden power, he chose to pretend to be dead without any movement.
"Let me go. I can give you supplies. I can give you a lot of supplies, including mine and Shunhu's. They are all your spoils of war!"
When the man in black robe was only a few steps away from him, Zhou Xun finally couldn't help shouting.
This is his biggest bargaining chip and the only trump card he can bring to the table.
But what surprised him was that the man in black robe suddenly laughed as if he heard something funny:
