Zhang Zhe and others only reacted when the blood, which was more than two meters high and filled with temperature, fell on the faces of Zhang Zhe and others.
As the man's body fell to the ground, the woman who was standing next to the man and was covered in blood hurriedly ducked forward and shouted in horror.
"Oh my god! Zombie killer..."
At the same time, a large mutated mantis suddenly jumped out from the seemingly normal cement wall behind the woman, waving its two sickle-like forelimbs and pounced on the woman's back.
Zhang Zhe, who had no time to think too much, immediately reached out and grasped the handle of the katana in his left hand while discarding the hiking bag he had just picked up in his right hand.
In the flash of lightning, as the mountaineering bag fell to the ground and splashed with countless dust, the mutated mantis that pounced on the woman's back was also cut in half by Zhang Zhe with his sword in the air.
After the frightened woman discovered the body of the mutated giant mantis behind her that had been chopped down by Zhang Zhe, she said with lingering fear to Zhang Zhe, who was sheathing the katana in his hand.
"Brother, I really thanked you just now."
"But we should leave here as soon as possible and try to find a safe place to stay before dark. These zombie killers are far more dangerous at night than during the day."
After hearing the woman's words, Zhang Zhe and Mo Xi didn't say much. After carrying their hiking bags, they took their frightened daughter Zhang Yuxuan and left the railway bridge with the woman, heading south together.
Go.
Originally, Zhang Zhe wanted to take the man's rifle and leave together, but after hearing the woman say that there were no bullets in the rifle, he gave the man's saber to Mo Xi for self-defense.
Speaking of which, the scene where the man's blood spurted out like a fountain when he died really frightened his daughter Zhang Yuxuan.
Fortunately, this little girl had seen it frequently, and the scenes of Mo Xi and Zhang Zhe killing zombies did not cause any great harm to her young mind.
Not long after leaving the railway bridge, the little girl completely forgot about the bloody scene just now. In a cheerful tone, she discussed with Moxi, who was holding her little hand, how to clean the blood stains on the rabbit doll in her hand.
Through chatting on the road, Zhang Zhe learned that the woman's name was Lin Ying, who was twenty-three years old this year. She had been living in M City in the south, and only came to H City three years ago to join the wolf clan and become a L City
Wolf soldiers under the military establishment.
It was not until half a year ago that she was transferred from the wolf base in City H to the military base in City L to join a new team and work together for General Luo Zitong.
I heard from Lin Ying that three months ago, her team, together with ten other teams, received a mission from a superior officer.
The general situation is that scientists in the human fortress in Antarctica used DNA gene technology to develop a mysterious biological weapon that can effectively help humans eliminate all zombies on the earth.
The task of these dozen or so military teams in City L is to release and monitor the working conditions of these biological weapons within the control of the military in City L.
The biological weapons they deployed and monitored were the kind of harmful ones. Zhang Zhe and Mo Xi decided to move for the safety of their daughter. They had just killed Lin Ying's companion under the railway bridge and were called "zombie killers" by Lin Ying.
"The mutated giant mantis."
In the early stages of releasing those mutated mantises, through the monitoring of those mutant mantises, the various teams involved in the release and monitoring did see a glimmer of hope in this apocalyptic world.
These mutated mantises are not "zombie killers", they are simply "zombie reapers". Every time they conduct release and monitoring patrols, their team will pick up a large number of zombie heads in various streets, woods, and grass.
But the joy of seeing the light of day did not last long. Among the teams involved in the delivery and monitoring, word gradually spread that some team members were attacked by mutated mantises.
This morning, her team was attacked by several mutated mantises when they released a batch of larvae in a poplar forest more than ten kilometers away from the railway bridge where Zhang Zhe and the others met.
In the panic, only Lin Ying and her companion named Black Bear escaped from their heavily armed five-person team after firing all the bullets in their rifles.
Then, there was the scene where she and the two of them smelled the smell of roasted lamb leg while walking back to the base in City L, and ran over to have dinner with Zhang Zhe and the others.
After saying this, Lin Ying, who followed Zhang Zhe and walked next to Mo Xi, carried a rifle that had been drained of bullets, and held the saber at her waist tightly in her hand. She could not help but look at the weeds on both sides of the road vigilantly.
, while speaking with a slightly disappointed mood.
"It's out of control, everything is completely out of control!"
"I have a hunch that these biological weapons created through DNA genetic technology are not safe at all."
"Even if these things can help us humans completely eliminate those zombies, they will also bring us humans into a brand new apocalypse."
As soon as Lin Ying finished speaking, Zhang Zhe, who was carrying a hiking bag and holding a piece of foxtail grass that he picked out from the grass beside the road, spoke calmly.
"Huh, humans? Aren't humans always like this? They always think that when they think they have solved a problem, they also create a brand new problem for themselves."
"After surviving in this damn apocalypse for so long, will the dawn of humanity appear and when? I no longer care."
"What I care about most is whether I can live to see the sun tomorrow after sleeping tonight. That's all!"
Just when Lin Ying didn't know how to reply to Zhang Zhe's words, Mo Xi, who was walking beside her and holding her daughter Zhang Yuxuan's little hand, turned to look at Lin Ying and asked.
"Xiaoying, there is one thing I don't understand."
"When we were eating together under the railway bridge, didn't your companion say that there was some kind of military food production base nearby?"
"Why didn't you go there to ask for help? Instead, you prepared to go to the military base in City L on foot, even though you were near and far away?"
After hearing what Mo Xi said, Lin Ying explained with a wry smile.
"Sister Xi, you don't know something."
"There are too many zombies of all kinds wandering around the food production base. Black Bear and I didn't dare to risk going there because we didn't have ammunition or a vehicle to provide protection."
"So the two of us had no choice but to look far away, relying on our memory to find a road with fewer zombies, and prepare to return to the military base in City L on foot."
It was already evening as we spoke, and the four people found a two-story villa in an unknown town as a temporary resting place. They lit a bonfire with tables, chairs and other furniture in the hall on the first floor of the villa.
The four of them gathered around the bonfire in the hall and had some dried venison that Zhang Zhe took out from his hiking bag for dinner. The sky outside the villa turned completely dark.
From time to time, a few roars of zombies would be heard from the dark night outside the villa.
Zhang Zhe had already closed the heavy curtains on all the windows in the hall on the first floor. It is thought that the zombies wandering around outside the villa at night should not notice the constantly beating firelight in the hall on the first floor of the villa.
But even if he noticed it, it would be okay. With the auras that he and Moxi exuded as half-zombie beings, even if the zombies outside the villa ran into the villa, they would not dare to do anything to the four of them.
As long as there is no zombie king outside the villa, Zhang Zhe and Mo Xi really have nothing to worry about!
After getting along along the way, her daughter Zhang Yuxuan seemed to like Lin Ying very much. After dinner, she pestered Lin Ying to play a flying chess game with her, similar to Monopoly.
While playing games with Zhang Yuxuan, Lin Ying and Mo Xi, who was playing games with her daughter, chatted about the fact that there are fewer and fewer resources available in the apocalypse, and their military base has been using up energy because they cannot get gasoline.
Modified cars use high alcohol content instead of gasoline.
The conversation between the women lasted a long time. Just now they were chatting about the scarcity of resources in the end of the world. In an instant, they were talking about how they found some beautiful clothes in a wardrobe in a certain room when they entered the villa. Then the conversation suddenly changed.
Then we started talking about the gossip about a certain celebrity before the end of the world.
Mo Xi and Lin Ying's repeated chatting style made Zhang Zhe, who was sitting in front of the campfire and reading the supernatural novel in his hand, speechless.
Haha, I really don’t know how you do this kind of chatting back and forth between platforms?
Just chatting like a hammer in the East and a stick in the West, you can still chat on the same channel and have such a happy chat. You two are both gods.
But to be honest, in the past five years of getting along with Mo Xi, this is the first time Zhang Zhe has seen Mo Xi speak so many words. The words Mo Xi said in such a short time together with Lin Ying are simply better than those between Mo Xi and Lin Ying.
When we are together, we talk more in a month.
A few hours later, after playing enough games, her daughter Zhang Yuxuan felt a little sleepy.
Upon seeing this, Lin Ying accompanied Mo Xi to clean up the flying chess pieces on the floor, and said with a smile to Zhang Zhe, who was sitting by the campfire reading a book.
"Brother Zhe, for the sake of safety, let's all sleep in the hall on the first floor watching the bonfire tonight!"
"Those zombie killers are afraid of fire. We should not be attacked by them if we sleep by this campfire."
Zhang Zhe, who heard Lin Ying's words, looked at Lin Ying with some disapproval and said with a smile.
"Xiaoying, are you too cautious?"
"I have written down all the characteristics of the mutant mantises you mentioned. Didn't you say that the mutant mantises rely on their back shells and back wings to camouflage themselves with the surrounding environment?"
"When we entered this villa, I deliberately checked every room carefully. This villa has really..."
Before Zhang Zhe could finish speaking, Lin Ying stood up from the floor and walked towards the bathroom nearby, reminding Zhang Zhe lightly.
"Brother Zhe, you seem to have missed something I said! I also said that zombie killers like to hide in a relatively humid and cool environment before night falls."
"In this villa, the ceiling above our heads and the attic on the second floor may all become their hiding places."
"Brother Zhe, you are right to listen to me. After all, you have to be careful to sail a thousand-year-old ship. I don't want to have my head chopped off by them in my sleep."
After saying this, Lin Ying immediately opened the bathroom door and entered the bathroom.
Moxi, who was on the side of the campfire, took out a blanket from his hiking bag and spread it on the floor, then said to Zhang Zhe with a smile on his face.
"For safety's sake, let's sleep tonight..."
Mo Xi was just halfway through speaking when a scream from Lin Ying came from the bathroom nearby.
