I Was Once a Legend
128 Fatal Temptation
No one spoke for a while.
In the city of waste land after 3,000 years, almost all traces left by humans can be found. Only some of the buildings that used to be the skyline of the city still stand. To be precise, they are frozen in place and cannot be collapsed.
And these wreckages have also turned into worms' nests.
Cui Zuojing took a deep breath and murmured: "No wonder it's a copy of survival. In this way, it is already very good to live."
Wangque stood there, staring at everything in front of her, and seemed to be frightened. Cui Zuojing patted her shoulder and asked with concern: "Uncomfortable?"
Wangque took a long time to recover. She swallowed hard, clenching her fists with her hands hanging on her side: "It's okay."
Dong Linhai they saw the door opened, and they gathered together. After seeing so many strange-shaped giant insects that looked like creatures invading, everyone was stunned. How can this be played? We will not go to the biochemical base from these things."
Cui Zuojing: "Unfortunately I tell you, it seems, yes, maybe you can meet more horrible things when you reach the biochemical base."
Allen suddenly wondered: "Have you ever played StarCraft?"
Dong Linhai: "I have played, these things...it's just that the box is made according to the Zerg standard."
Dong Zheng didn't know much about video games: "How to say?"
Linhai: "In the hegemony of the galaxy, there are three races: human race, protoss, and zerg. The zerg occupy a place in the universe with tenacious vitality and huge number of advantages. I feel that if these worms are allowed to continue to develop, after the glacial period ends , Humans outside the immigration system will return to Earth, and things will become human race vs Zerg."
"Anyway, facing them with our firepower is a dead end now."
The biological light emitted by the insect swarms in the city ruins was refracted by the snow and ice, and it was still pretty for a while. Cui Zuojing exhaled deeply and said: "Don't stand silly, let's set off and start quickly. I feel like I’m still saving a little bit of time on the road. The real big guy is definitely still in the biochemical base."
Everyone agreed, and turned back to the supermarket.
Wangque stood still.
She looked straight at the far side of the sky, at the end of her line of sight, the former Wanda Twin Towers stood, and in the middle of the two towers hung a huge beehive.
As the darkness gradually deepened, black and yellow bees flew back to the nest from a distance.
She seemed to hear a steady heartbeat, boom, boom, as the hive swayed in the wind, it was more important than hers.
That is the will of the worms.
The frozen ground underneath the feet was turned up slightly, and the translucent insects protruded out of the soft shuttle-shaped body, and the delicate tentacles were gently waving in the breathing holes on the back, sensing everything around them.
When Dong Linhai saw that the bird hadn't moved, he stopped and shouted, "Wanque?"
The girl didn't seem to hear his voice at all, Dong Linhai scratched her head, but her hand hit the helmet.
He stepped back and patted Wangque's shoulder gently with his hand: "Don't watch it, go back."
Wangque turned back waking up like a dream, and saw Dong Linhai's face under the mask for a moment.
She couldn't tell who she really was.
Dong Linhai was shocked by the transparent worm that came out of the frozen ground and touched her ankle, and her figure disappeared as it melted.Wangque shook his head, waving the illusion-like scene from his head, and smiled, "Okay."
Dong Linhai successfully found a few bottles of overturned compressed oxygen in the most corner of the supermarket. The protective clothing can carry a total of four cans of compressed oxygen. Now everyone has run out of one can and replace the new oxygen. Dong Zheng replaced them The few compressed foods on your body are distributed to everyone.
The water in the military kettle was freezing soon, and Cui Zuojing took the flamethrower and sighed the kettle away from the kettle. The water was boiled, and everyone dealt with it.
Wangque was quite picky, but when she came to the realm of white earth, she realized that it was good to eat something. She endured the unpleasant taste of food in her mouth and forcibly washed it down with water to eat.
There are several residential quarters not far from the supermarket. The clusters of residential buildings exude the Zerg bioluminescence, which seems to be covered with colorful lights on the wall. Looking at the residential building from afar, silent.
"What are you looking at?" Dong Zheng came over and stood beside him, reflecting the unimaginable wasteland scene in his dark eyes.
At this time the man took off his gloves, and his hands were covered for so long, he was also not very comfortable.
"Those who sleep in the dormant cabin at home are probably dead." Cui Zuojing swallowed the remaining small piece of ice, only to feel cold from the tip of his tongue to his stomach, "Even if the bugs can't break through dormancy The protective covers of the cabin, they can also destroy the pipes responsible for the supply of nutrients."
Dong Zheng whispered low, according to the plan in the base, almost no terrestrial organisms survived in this area of the entire Ice Age. The government provided a special underground dormant area, but most people still choose to enter at home Sleeping, they look forward to waiting thousands of years before opening their eyes, the first thing they see is the familiar home and loved ones.
But everything is gone.
Cui Zuojing and Dong Zheng leaned against the door together and looked side by side at this alien world like a frozen world. Soon, Dong Zheng frowned, "Why don't those insects come here?"
"what?"
Dong Zheng: "The building has been preserved here, there is not much snow and it is sheltered from the wind. It stands to reason that it should be a good place to survive. But from the time we entered to the present, we have seen some little aggressive bugs. "
"Ah." Cui Zuojing said quite calmly, "Maybe a certain creature in this building hides a big creature that no other worms dare to approach."
Dong Zheng: "........................"
"Don't worry." Cui Zuojing reassured, "We'll be here for a while, and since the things that might exist up to now haven't come out and collected a few of us, proving that it may still be sleeping, and... if you want to go , I don’t think it’s safer outside than here.”
Dong Zheng had to admit that Cui Zuojing was right. If he went out now, they would be greeted by hundreds of millions of various kinds of insects, so why not hide here.
Cui Zuojing picked up another two pieces of ice and gave it to Dong Zheng: "Wait a moment to see if we can walk through the drain. It is too dangerous outside. I dare not guarantee the safety of all of you."
"The drainage system of the biochemical base is definitely not the same as that of the city, and it may not necessarily reach the destination from the pipeline."
Cui Zuojing thought for a while: "Yes, anyway, I don't recommend walking to complete the rest of the road, at least in the urban area, you can't walk on foot."
Dong Zheng: "I think about it again."
The face mask of Cui Zuojing's helmet was open, and his cheeks and nose were frozen red. Dong Zheng couldn't hold back. The ghost stretched out his hand and touched his face with the back of his hand: "Aren't you cold?"
"It's okay." Cui Zuojing just finished the sentence, and his nose tickled and he sneezed in a shocking way.
He rubbed his nose, and in the smile of Dong Zheng's lips gradually expanding, he murmured, "Okay...it's a little cold."
Cui Zuojing just put the mask down, and Yu Guang caught a glimpse of a dark thing passing through the wall.
"Snake!" The teenager recognized the slender figure's species all at once, and his eyes lit up with light. He directly dropped Dong Zheng and chased the snake, shouting, "Wait! I will improve it for you Food!"
Dong Zheng didn't have time to stop it. He saw Cui Zuojing chasing the snake in a smoky smoke, his figure disappeared from the shelf and could not be seen.
He frowned, chasing in the direction Cui Zuojing left.
In this situation where the world is full of bugs, can other carnivores survive?
The snake crawled very fast, and Cui Zuojing pursued slowly, always feeling that he could catch the snake's tail in the next second, but it was so little every time.
All the way around the countless shelves, Cui Zuojing stretched out his hands several times and failed to catch the cunning snake, which made him extremely annoyed, ignoring the problems Dong Zheng noticed in the first time.
The teenager chased to the entrance of the underground parking lot, he stepped down the stairs a few steps, and entered the same dark parking lot.
The black snake's figure was hidden in the darkness and disappeared.
At this moment, Cui Zuojing finally noticed something was wrong.
The instincts developed over the years of life and death fighting told him that there is a problem here.
Without taking another step forward, Cui Zuojing stared closely at the darkness in front of him, slowly retreating step by step, never leaving his back to the unknown.
He retreated to the top of the stairs before suddenly turning around and running towards the center of the supermarket, where everyone gathered.
Halfway along, Cui Zuojing turned to the shelf, and one didn't stop, directly hitting Dong Zheng who was running after him.
The two bumped into their arms, staggering back two steps together, reaching out in a very tacit understanding and pulling each other.
"what happened?"
"There seems to be something in the underground parking lot." Cui Zuojing Ping breathed, and someone was around, so he didn't have to hurry back home, annoyed: "I am so funny, I just caught up without thinking. Isn’t it a snake, what good?"
Dong Zheng twisted his eyebrow peak, he was silent for a moment, said: "Is the idea of chasing the snake just now really your own?"
Cui Zuojing stared at him, and a "?" appeared slowly on his head.
He recalled his performance just now, and he had to admit: "It's really impulsive, but if you say something controls my consciousness, I can't feel it. I also add a lot of points in the spirit. ."
Dong Zheng shook his head: "I don't know, it's always good to be cautious."
The two walked side by side in the direction of the others, and under the supermarket, in the underground parking lot as the lowest floor of the whole building, the black snake followed the teenager's trousers and climbed his shoulder all the way, entrenched on his shoulder. He kissed Tang Ji's face intimately.
"I'm not fooled." Tang Ji put his hands in his trouser pockets and said regretful words in a tone that was not regretful, "Then I haven't prepared such a big gift in vain?"
But it is not without gain.Tang Ji narrowed his eyes. The snake was a figurative part of his soul. Through the eyes of the black snake, he also saw everything the snake "see".
If he didn't look away, Cui Zuojing's rookie master's hand is the bloody prisoner's coat of arms.
