Doomsday Pavilion
Chapter 2 The Living Corpse Shooting Range
The world of living corpses and alien beasts is enough to change many things.
For example, in the worship of gods born two hundred years ago, most New Age humans, including the awakened and mutants, believe in death.
Humans infected by living corpses will stand up again after one day and night of death. Of course, they will no longer be humans at that time, and their "death" is not true death.
Death should return to peace, dust to dust to dust.
Rather than stand up again and become a bloodthirsty, white-eyed devil who doesn't recognize him.
Lin Chou is not a believer. He still has a necklace made from his father's ninth spine, which he usually puts in his chest pocket.
In order to prevent the corpse from getting up or simply being used as food by the living corpse, the base city implements a strict corpse burning system. If there are family members who need memorials made from the bones of their loved ones, the corpse hall will be happy to help, and the price is expensive!
Real "corpse" bones are extremely scarce. In the previous century, driven by profit, the theft and sale of human bones became popular. In order to survive, many of them were sold in the bones of fathers and fathers sold the corpses of children. This is also the emergence of the corpse burning system. One of the reasons.
After the kid who was eating left, Lin Chou locked the iron door of the shop and walked out of the alley.
The business profit of the small shop is very small, not to mention...
People habitually refer to the sub-city of Mingguang Base City as "Uptown" and "Xiacheng".
There is a magnificent city wall between the Shangcheng District and the Xiacheng District. There is a relevant card, and the "traffic fee" of 10 circulation points is required to enter the city.
There are some people in Xiacheng who have to work in Shangcheng every day, and everyone has a special pass.
There are three types of passes, one is the "point card" that allows you to enter the Shangcheng District for ten hours a day, the other is the "monthly card" that is unlimited but has a one-month period, and the last one is that Lin Chou has never seen it. That is the "permanent card" held by the mutants and the awakened in Shangcheng District. It is bound to the identity card and has the same effect as the "green card" of individual countries before the catastrophe.
Lin Chou holds a "monthly card", dark blue, with information such as name, ID code, and work location on it.
The place where Lin Chou works, Shangcheng Mingguang Tactical Training Center, has a very big name, and its actual use is equivalent to the high-end clubhouse on the eve of the cataclysm, a place where a group of idle second-generation children gather for recreation.
Lin Chou is an "attendant", that's the kind of job where you have to do everything and if you are exhausted and have problems, you should go first.
It's hard to say how dangerous it is, but you need to play 24 points and be ready.
The reason comes from a basic project of the tactical training hall-the living corpse shooting range.
Since the end of the living corpse, the survivors have never stopped researching and exploring the living corpse: Are the living corpses still human?Is it infection or mutation?Can it be cured?If it cannot be cured, is there a virus against living corpses that can wipe them all out?
The scientific research institutions in the base city need hundreds of living corpses to conduct live experiments every day, and those who have undergone experiments are no longer worthwhile, and the use of waste can just give a group of parents and elders either powerful or powerful. Children as a pastime.
The living corpse shooting range is the most popular reserved item for tactical training centers large and small in the base city. Which training center has this project on which day will be full. This is also a measure of whether the relationship behind each training center is hard. The most important indicator.
There is only one way for a living corpse to enter the base city, and there is only one way to get a living corpse in the base city, and it must go through the manual process of the base city research institute.
The scientific research institute's daily "production" is limited, and it is impossible to supply all the training centers in the base city at the same time, so which one can support the living corpse shooting range for a long time will naturally develop and grow.
One of Lin Chou's work is to take over the living corpse experiments escorted from the research institute every afternoon, and either detain them or transport them directly to the shooting range.
After the shooting range was closed, Lin Chou had to clean up and could not leave until late at night.
No one in Shangcheng District chooses to do such dangerous work.
The salaries of service staff have always been settled daily, with 40 circulation points a day, which is higher than that of ordinary people in Shangcheng District.
Direct contact with blood, wound exudate, and various secretions of living corpses can cause infections when exposed to human wounds, such as eyes and mouth, not to mention being bitten or scratched by living corpses.
The living corpses escorted by the research institute were all tied up with high-strength plastic clasps, with a pulling resistance capacity of 190 kilograms. There is basically no precedent for breaking free.
This work requires the cooperation of two people to complete. Lin Chou has been working with a big and honest man like Xia Zhonghui for the past six months. His IQ is slightly owed, but he is strong and willing to work hard.
"Brother Sorrow!" Xia Zhonghui touched the back of his head and walked over. "You're late! Today, I had rabbit stew with potatoes at the shooting range. It was delicious!"
"I left this for you. It's still hot, Brother Chou, eat it, eat it!"
"If you don't eat it, I'm greedy to death... hiss, it smells so good!"
"If you don't come, they won't let me take your share. This is what's left in my bowl..."
The big man’s eyes were both reluctant and full of anticipation. The meat hesitatingly took out of his arms was still carrying body temperature. A plastic bag was placed on it, and it looked like a half rabbit leg.
Even though his father died, he didn't leave half a tear on his nose, as if he had been punched in the front of the living corpse, and the tears almost fell straight down.
"Brother Chou, why don't you eat? You cried. Who bullied you? Tell me..."
"En" Lin Chou promised, "I've eaten enough to work, how many are you here today?"
He tore a few pieces of meat with his hands and chewed in his mouth, and the rest was stuffed into the big man's mouth.
Xia Zhonghui's face suddenly collapsed, "That... dozens of them!"
A little nervous, still don't forget to swallow.
Lin Chou rolled his eyes. Xia Zhonghui's brain could not support him to calculate numbers above ten. For him, "a dozen" and "dozens" were infinitely parallel.
Looking through the form records, Lin Chou confirmed that 45 living corpses were transported to the shooting range today, of which two had "normally died" during the transportation, and all the remaining 43 need to be put into the shooting range, and there is no need for "processing".
The so-called treatment is to put cotton gloves on the hands of the living corpse, and seal the mouth with a "bite" and a mask to prevent bites.
"I'm going to play a big one today? This nerve!" Lin Chou put on his gloves and a mask. "Working, big man!"
Xia Zhonghui was always absent-minded. He walked into a large cage and pulled up the living corpse that was chained on a stretcher-like restraint bed. He hung his neck with a five-meter alloy rod with a noose at the end, and untied the restraint. Kick his feet roughly into the isolation room.
The living corpse looked like a ball in front of this stupid man, but Lin Chou couldn't envy his strength.
Lin Chou skillfully used the alloy rod of the same length with a hook-shaped sharp machete to cut the plastic clasps on the hands and feet of the living corpse.
The isolation room is only two square meters in size, with steel bars as thick as an arm on all sides. After being closed, there is nothing left for the living corpses to go crazy inside.
There are a total of fifty such quarantine rooms. After the quarantine rooms are filled with inventory, Lin Chou said to the intercom, "The living corpses are ready."
The intercom rustled a few times, and a charming and sweet woman said with a long voice,
"To understanding."
Lin Chou laughed, why is this woman here?
On the other side of the isolation room, you can see an open field with grass, woods, lakes, hills, cliffs, artificial buildings, several single-family villas and seven-story buildings.
It is several kilometers in diameter and is surrounded by a thick wall up to eleven meters high. A grid lined with sharp spikes is pulled on the top of the wall.
After the living corpse shooting range is opened, the switch at the other end of the isolation room where the living corpse is located will automatically open. There is a smell in the shooting range that can attract the living corpse, and the living corpse will naturally enter the shooting range.
The speakers installed everywhere in the shooting range sounded at the right time, "Dear audience, friends, and warriors preparing to enter the living corpse shooting range, today is the most grand festival since the opening of the Mingguang Tactical Training Center. Today, we will be here. Fifty crazy, bloodthirsty corpses were dropped in the shooting range, and there were only ten warriors entering the range! Among them, five were ordinary girls who had never been trained! Look forward to it!"
Behind the separation wall, like the stepped seats of the stadium before the cataclysm, there were waves of cheers and screams like the mountains and the tsunami. I don't know how many people are watching.
"Okay, please prepare the warriors first. They are not allowed to wear any weapons except basic protective gear. There are various simulation facilities in the 5.9 square kilometer stadium. As long as they have enough imagination and practical ability, you can Get any weapon you want! Our warriors not only need to survive, but also protect their beauties and guard their dignity and pride as men!"
"I think I don't need to remind you all. The next is our most anticipated and tense moment. Cheers, for the peace of death!"
"Living Corpse Shooting Range, open it!!"
