The wind was strong, blowing Lin An's somewhat long hair.
The black combat uniform on his body has been changed, and his right hand is wearing a glove with complicated blood patterns. The stone sculpture turned into a black dragon looks a bit mysterious like an ornament.
“Wanda Shopping Center.”
Lin An stood on the rooftop of the building and carefully observed the movements of the corpses at his feet. The metal signboard of Wanda Shopping Center not far away reflected in the hot sun.
A fire broke out in the square, and abandoned and crashed vehicles blocked the entire street.
Groups of corpses wandered around, raising their heads and roaring from time to time.
The once bustling city center has been reduced to a corpse paradise.
"There are still 76 hours left."
Lin An glanced at the mission countdown on the savior panel and saw that there was not much time left.
After deducting the time for returning to Heyuan Community and possible accidents, at least 24 hours will be deducted.
After being in a coma for five days, his mental and physical strength has returned to its peak.
Therefore, after he told Zhang Tie to take Wen Ya to a less dangerous spiritual energy node to awaken his talent, he rushed all night to get here first.
"Things don't seem to be very good."
Lin An looked at the densely packed corpses at his feet and muttered to himself.
The Wanda shopping mall where [Stitcher] is located is located in the city center. At first glance, the surrounding area is surrounded by black zombies.
With such a huge number of zombies, there must be many mutants among them.
There is a huge difference in difficulty between facing mutants alone and facing them in a group of corpses.
It is no longer practical to enter shopping malls from the ground.
"Eye of Judgment!"
"Buzz~"
Light blue mist rises, and spiritual power quickly spreads out of the body.
Lin An quickly scanned the surroundings, trying to find the mutants hidden among the corpses.
For some reason, none of the best-identified lickers were seen.
"Hey, the number of zombies detected around you: 332817"
"Number of surrounding mutants: 6"
"Unknown existence around: 3"
"Number of players around: 791"
A huge amount of data came down like a waterfall. After reading it carefully, Lin An couldn't help but feel condensed.
Due to the strength of his mental power, he could only observe a range of about a kilometer.
However, since waking up, the Eye of Judgment can detect invisible places with the external mental power.
There are actually more than 300,000 zombies in an area of less than 3 square kilometers. This density is comparable to the peak of Spring Festival travel.
There are 791 survivors?
Lin An looked at the square below with some curiosity, not knowing where the players detected through mental power could hide.
There are 6 mutants, 3 of which are unknown.
It's really a bit tricky, I don't know if I can avoid it.
After writing down the locations representing the distribution of mutants and unknown entities, Lin An turned around and walked towards the entrance of the rooftop, intending to think carefully about his route.
[The Stitcher] is located inside the Wanda Shopping Center. He must retain enough physical strength before entering.
Try to avoid fights with other mutants.
Once you are injured or exhausted before entering the shopping mall, your life will be in danger even with the help of Zhang Tie and Wen Ya.
A second-level peak mutant can kill an entire well-trained army in terms of strength.
The first time a player in the previous life killed a monster of this level was half a year later.
............
Heyuan Community.
The sun was shining brightly at noon, and the cement floor of the community was hot to the feet.
"Boss Huang, let's find a place to rest. The brothers really can't hold it anymore."
A man in a gray vest covered his eyes and said weakly to the leader.
His mouth was so dry that he felt like his throat was on fire.
There were seven people in the group, six of whom were wearing gray vests, and their clothes were stained with blood and somewhat tattered.
There are a few small words embroidered on the vest: Linjiang No. 2 Prison.
The remaining person was wearing a black overalls from Shunfeng Express and looked timid as he was caught in the middle, as if he was being coerced.
After hearing this, everyone stopped and looked at the leading man.
The man called the boss is named Huang Gang. He looks tired and has a slender scar next to his narrow eyes.
"Okay, we've already run this far. The monster shouldn't be able to catch up."
Exhausted, the few people hiding on the outer wall of the community staggered and sat down on the ground.
Recalling the fear of being chased by lickers all the way, I couldn't help but feel chills in my heart even under the scorching sun.
"Take a rest. You can't stay in this place for too long. I think there are some zombies inside."
"Find a house later and let's go in and rest."
Huang Gang took out a crumpled cigarette from his pocket, and the boy next to him immediately lit it for him diligently.
The smoke filled the air, and the other people just looked at it with envy but didn't dare to ask for it.
After Huang Gang finished speaking, he half-closed his eyes and took a sip of pleasure. He hit the hot cement floor with his left hand casually, and there was a faint arc of electricity flashing across his fingertips.
"Snapped."
The electric arc blasted open a small hole on the ground that was as straight as a fingernail.
The skinny man closest to him glanced at the electric arc on Huang Gang's fingertips and said with fear in his eyes.
"Boss, I see there is someone in this house."
The skinny man pointed to the third floor of a residential building not far away. Several pieces of cardboard were put together and had "Help" written on them in red ink.
Huang Gang squinted his eyes, looked at it carefully and nodded casually.
"Then let's go to this place. Someone should have some food. I think there are still women's clothes hanging outside."
Are there any girls?
After hearing this, several younger brothers who were originally listless immediately cheered up and came to his side.
"Boss, are these still the old rules?"
The person who spoke was half bald on his head. He was hunched over with a flattering look on his face and couldn't help but rub his hands and ask Huang Gang.
"Old rules, let Biaozi and Siyanzi knock on the door. We'll follow behind."
"Also, you damn thing, stay away from me. Move aside when you smell like a girl."
Waves of fishy smell wafted from Leizi's lower body, causing people to feel nauseous.
"Hehe, yes, yes."
The half-bald man ran back to his original position with a charming smile, but made the people next to him look disgusted.
"Oh no, why do you smell so bad? Didn't you take a shower after you fucked that girl last time?"
The leper looked aggrieved and subconsciously scratched his crotch.
"There's not enough water to drink, so how can I take a shower..."
"Fuck, you'll be the last one to come up later. I don't want to die like you."
.....
Three buildings, three units.
After entering the corridor, Huang Gang walked in the front. He held a black 54 pistol in his right hand and looked around with a vigilant expression.
"The house with the girl must be 301, right?"
"Boss, that's right. But there seem to be men in that house."
Several people behind him, carrying various simple weapons, whispered back, with excitement that could not be concealed in their eyes.
After the doomsday broke out, they took advantage of the prison's fall and escaped all the way.
From the beginning, I was cautious and worried about being recaptured, but later I realized that the world was in chaos.
Huang Gang, who became the Awakened One, became the leader of these people after suddenly possessing superhuman power.
With the thunder attribute awakened, even level 0 is enough to make him fearless of small-scale zombies.
Unscrupulously, a group of people could no longer hold back a few days ago and robbed several survivors who were hiding.
Go upstairs carefully.
At the corner of the stairs on the second floor, the door of Room 202 was open. The living room was in a mess and dead silence.
"Go in and have a look."
After giving the order, the skinny man reluctantly jumped out after a rough inspection.
"Boss, no one has seen any zombies."
After hearing this, several people relaxed and continued to go upstairs.
"Roar!"
Just as everyone turned their backs, the shoe cabinet at the door suddenly opened and two zombies rushed out.
Unprepared.
"Zombie!"
The last few people let out a low cry, their faces full of fear.
"Afraid of shit."
Huang Gang raised his left hand without changing his expression.
"laugh!"
A purple electric current flashed through, instantly paralyzing the zombies rushing out of the corridor with a series of jumps.
After several people reacted, they swarmed forward and chopped off the zombie's head.
"The boss's chain lightning is amazing!"
"This is much more powerful than a pistol!"
After a series of flattery was delivered, Huang Gang waved his hand proudly.
"Keep your voice down, don't disturb the house with the girls."
"Four-eyed boy, you knock on the door first."
Behind Huang Gang, a thin man with glasses walked out from Leco. He took off his vest and smoothed out the wrinkled shirt underneath.
"Don't worry, boss."
"Biaozi, change into your police uniform and follow me. As soon as the door opens, rush in."
The man with glasses tidied his hair and looked a bit polite.
"Damn it, you're the one who can trick people into opening the door like a dog."
"Or do you want me to pretend to be a policeman?"
Biaozi casually put on the police uniform that he had dropped from the corpse, holding a broken machete in his hand, and looked him up and down.
Everyone laughed softly when they heard the sound.
"Bang bang bang!"
The man with glasses tiptoed to the door of 301 and knocked on the door rhythmically.
A moment later there was a panic inside the door.
"who?"
The man inside the door lowered his voice in a panic, and looked out through the peephole.
Just now, he vaguely heard the sound of fighting and felt uneasy.
"We are the police in the Hi-tech Zone."
"Come with us quickly, the rescuers are coming!"
"One minute! Our people can wait for you for up to one minute!"
The man with glasses looked solemn and urged the people inside the door in a quick voice.
The lie was clumsy, and he deliberately sped up his speech.
Having gotten into the scam, he knew that ordinary people would fall into panic and be unable to think clearly under pressure and threats.
Biaozi said nothing, took out an ID card and waved it at the peephole.
The man inside the door was overjoyed and a little excited when he heard the sound.
It's just that I didn't open the door directly out of instinctive vigilance.
"Officer, what about the zombies? Did someone really come to save us!?"
The bespectacled man's face darkened, deliberately showing impatience.
"Stop being so nagging! There are all zombies outside now, and the small force coming is here and they can't wait too long!"
"If you want to leave, just leave, there are others in this community that we need to save!"
The man inside the door panicked for a moment, and a moment later a gentle and panicked female voice came.
"Husband, let's listen to the police officer and leave quickly."
"Our children are still in school. Please ask this police officer how the school is going."
The man looked hesitant. He always felt that there was something wrong with the two people outside the door.
There was no sound of gunfire, no sound of large troops.
It's just that the ID and clothes don't seem to be fake. Although the man with glasses speaks rudely, he does look like a public official.
"Click."
After repeated urging, the man inside the door opened the door without thinking.
"Two police officers, what is the situation outside? My child is at school, and someone is there to rescue him..."
"boom!"
As soon as the man opened the door, before he finished speaking, he saw Biaozi in uniform laughing ferociously at him and kicking him in the abdomen.
"Brothers, come on!"
When Huang Gang saw the door being tricked open, he couldn't help but grin. After receiving the order, the people behind him rushed into the room like hungry wolves rushing towards prey.
The leper who entered last cut off the man's head with a knife and looked at the young woman inside the door with a lewd smile on his face.
"ah!"
The woman, who had a beautiful face, saw her husband being decapitated with a knife. She screamed in horror and turned around to run away.
However, he was thrown to the ground a moment later, and his cool clothes were torn apart by a few pairs of dirty hands, revealing a large area of white snow.
"boom!"
The door slammed shut.
Soon after, a woman's pitiful screams and cries were heard from inside the door, but they were quickly covered up by the men's excited yells and curses.
