Apocalypse: Counterattack of a Cannon Fodder

Chapter 74: Strengthen and find

Views:

Tang Shizheng was worried about where to find the "Eye of Death", so the system rewarded him with this as a reward card. It must be said that the system was too considerate.

However, Tang Shi was a little hesitant when holding the card. The ancient rune on the card was full of danger, which made Tang Shi hesitant as to whether to use it or not.

If Yanxu were here, he would definitely not agree with him using such a dangerous thing, but it is undeniable that the undead sickle is indeed very lethal. The undead physique is equivalent to his life-saving talisman. If he can extend the time or use it more times opportunity, then Tang Shi's strength will undoubtedly increase greatly.

The current state of the Undead Scythe is quite stable, and Tang Shi can control it. Compared with when he first started refining, he can control the influence of the Undead Scythe on him a little more. After using the Eye of Death to strengthen it, the properties of the Undead Scythe are improved, and the control The difficulty will definitely increase, but Tang Shi doesn't think he can't control it!

Tang Shi did not hesitate and immediately found a relatively good room in this building to prepare to strengthen the Undead Scythe.

They will leave Lincheng soon. The outside world will be very dangerous, and he must do everything possible to improve his strength.

Tang Shi materialized the Eye of Death. A black sphere the size of a ping pong ball appeared in Tang Shi's hand. The black sphere did not look like a solid object. There seemed to be a mass of black air floating on the surface. Turning in one direction, he suddenly saw a An eye is embedded in a black sphere. The "eye" has a long and narrow pupil, like a cat's eye, with a golden edge, a green iris, and no pupil. It looks very weird. When it moves, the "eye" seems to move. Stare at people.

When Tang Shi saw it, he felt cold in his heart. He didn't know if it was his illusion. He felt that since he materialized the Eye of Death, the temperature of the whole room had dropped. Even Tang Shi felt cold and uncomfortable.

Tang Shi did not hesitate and materialized the undead scythe. He had just put the eye of death close to the undead scythe. The eye of death seemed to be summoned by some kind of summons. It pulled out wisps of black death energy from that "eye" and floated towards the undead. The eye sockets on the sickle skull's head, which were originally dark, began to glow after receiving the death energy from the Eye of Death. The green light was eerie and terrifying, and the whole room was filled with a creepy ghostly energy. Even though Even in the Tang Dynasty, I felt shuddering.

As more and more death energy filled the Eye of Death, the huge sickle head of the Undead Scythe also began to emit green light. The entire Undead Scythe was wrapped in a layer of green death energy, and a cold chill invaded Tang Shi. He could hardly hold the Undead Scythe. After the Eye of Death completely disappeared, the Undead Scythe also disappeared in an instant and merged into Tang Shi's Yuan Core.

Tang Shi was shocked and was enveloped by a powerful cold air, surrounded by black and green death energy. He shivered, as if enduring great pain. He was enduring it, and the force powerful enough to tear his body apart impacted his core, making him tremble with pain. He persisted like this for several minutes, Tang Suddenly, he raised his head and roared, his eyes flashed with green light, and black-green death energy spurted out from his open mouth, and his whole person became a "gathering place" of death energy.

With a "crash" sound, Tang Shi directly opened the window of the room and jumped out of the window. His figure was like a ghost, walking through the dilapidated buildings, and soon lost sight of it.

As soon as Yanxu arrived at the military's temporary command post, someone came to inform him that Wuzhong was going to see him.

Yanxu happened to want to talk to him about the mass transfer, so he followed the adjutant directly to Wu Weiguo's office without stopping.

In order to see Yan Xu, Wu Weiguo spared 20 minutes alone and waited for him in the office. After Wu Weiguo saw Yan Xu, he first asked about the details of what happened at the granary. He thought that the four awakened people who came back alive must also be there. After being interrogated, no one was as careful as Yanxu said. Yanxu told the story in detail from beginning to end, even the instructions given by Jiang Huai were repeated to Wu Weiguo word for word. In the entire narrative, the only thing missing from the entire narrative was the fact that Tang Shi killed Jiang Huai.

After Wu Weiguo finished listening, he looked at Yanxu with deep eyes. Seeing that Yanxu had no intention of speaking again, he had to say: "Is that all?"

"Yes." Yan Xu stood straight in front of Wu Weiguo's desk. Even if he was not wearing a military uniform, anyone who looked over would know that he was a soldier.

Wu Weiguo said meaningfully: "You are an excellent soldier, but I didn't expect that you would also be corrupted by this era."

Yanxu answered meticulously, "Please let me know, Lieutenant General."

Wu Weiguo knocked on the table, "How did Jiang Huai die?"

Yanxu glanced at Wu Weiguo and already saw the answer from his expression and eyes.

He already knew the cause of Jiang Huai's death and did not publicize it. He probably took into account the image of the military and the awakened people in the minds of the people. After all, Jiang Huai was a "hero" created by the military. As a hero, he could only die in battle, not Because he was weak and killed by his own clan, the news of Jiang Huai's death was also announced to the public in the name of "sacrifice", and a new captain of the Awakened team was elected.

"That means he deserves to die." Yanxu answered Wu Weiguo's words.

Wu Weiguo mentioned this matter not to pursue who killed Jiang Huai. He had already known about Jiang Huai being bribed by Mayor Lin, so he agreed to Mayor Lin's request to "plug people in". He also wanted to indirectly Get rid of Jiang Huai and re-select a commander who is easy to control.

Regarding the differences in orders, he believed that Yanxu could handle them well. As a qualified soldier, he must be able to handle any emergencies, and Jianghuai was Yanxu's "emergency situation". His handling method was indeed good. At that time Every one of his several orders was correct, which made Wu Weiguo very satisfied.

"Is the young man who came back with you Tang Shi?" Wu Weiguo suddenly asked this question.

"Yes." He couldn't hide this matter, so Yan Xu simply stopped hiding it and answered generously.

Wu Weiguo nodded, "I want to apologize to him for wanting him before the end of the world. Time is tight and I am allowed to slowly find someone, so I can only make this last resort."

Yanxu: "..."

Even if you don't have time to find someone, you can't just treat the person as a wanted criminal. No matter what Yanxu thinks in his heart, he still has a straight face and no emotion can be seen on his face.

Wu Weiguo added: "What is his current strength? The people who came back reported that when Jiang Huai came in front of him, he had no power to fight back. Jiang Huai was already a level 2 awakener. He could kill Jiang Huai so easily. His level was at least On the same level as Jianghuai, I think it should be more than level 2, right?"

Yanxu felt like he was facing a formidable enemy, and he didn't understand what Wu Weiguo's intention was in asking about Tang Shi.

Seeing Yan Xu's nervous look, Wu Weiguo laughed and said: "Don't be nervous, I don't have any other intentions, and I don't want to force him to join the Awakener team. I just hope that when we transfer, if he has the strength, if necessary, At the right moment, we can make a difference.”

"I'll tell him."

Wu Weiguo nodded, "There's nothing else to do, you can go out."

"Lieutenant General, when will the masses be transferred?" Yanxu asked the question he had always wanted to ask.

"As soon as possible."

"We don't have much time. The old city is already a paradise for aliens. Their number is increasing rapidly. If they are large, they need food and territory. It won't be long before they are eyeing the safe zone. It's best to move as soon as possible. .”

Wu Weiguo's expression was serious, "I understand all this. If Mayor Lin still won't let go, I will deny his right to vote and let the military be solely responsible for the transfer."

Yanxu was relieved after receiving such words from Lieutenant General Wu.

They must move as soon as possible, otherwise it will be too late. As Tang Shi said, humans will not move unless it is delayed until the end, and the accompanying casualties will also be greatly increased. It is better to seize the opportunity while there is still time. Time to prepare to evacuate.

When Yanxu went back, it was already dark.

When I got home, I only saw Long Mian sitting on the sofa eating snacks alone. There was a flashlight on the coffee table. The flashlight was powered by an old-fashioned battery. Tang Shi bought a lot of batteries and stored them at home for backup.

"Where is Tang Shi?" Yanxu went to Tang Shi's room but found no one.

"I don't know. I went out in the afternoon and haven't been back yet." Long Mian threw the finished bag aside, tore open another bag, and continued eating.

Yanxu frowned. He knew almost without asking that Tang Shi must have gone hunting in the occupied area again. It seemed that the only words in his world were "becoming stronger".

It was getting late now, and the occupied area was at its most dangerous time. Tang Shi hadn't come back yet, and he probably wouldn't come back tonight.

Yanxu wasn't too worried. Tang Shi himself knew what to do, not to mention he was already a level 5 awakener and so powerful that almost no one in Lincheng could hurt him.

However, Tang Shi did not come back for two consecutive days, and Yan Xu became anxious and entered the occupied area through the vent that Tang Shi often used to look for people. Lincheng is so big that many places are very dangerous. Yanxu guessed that Tang Shi would not go to those places, so he searched around the safe zone for three days. Yanxu went out in the morning and came back in the evening, but Tang Shi was still there. No news at all.

Yanxu became more and more anxious. He brought some food and decided to walk deeper into the occupied area. Maybe Tang Shi encountered some trouble and couldn't get out.

Among the survivors in the community, there were several people with clean clothes and rosy faces sitting on the flower pond with the refugees, as if they were about to die from hunger.

A man with small eyes sneaked through the crowd and said to a slightly fat man: "Brother Sun, we have determined which household it is. I just saw Major Yan going out with a backpack. From the looks of it, it should be We’re going to the occupied area, when are we going to do it?”

The fat man called Brother Sun, named Sun He, is a free awakener in the safe zone. He is not controlled by anyone. He often takes a few brothers to do some work, earns some food and energy crystals, and lives a comfortable life. Still comfortable. He threw the branch in his hand, "Are you sure that man named Tang Shi hasn't gone out these days?"

The man with small eyes nodded, "I'm sure, I'm very sure. I've been guarding here. I only see Major Yan coming in and out every day, and I don't see anyone else coming out."

Sun He remembered the information he had inquired about and asked, "Didn't you say there is a child?"

"The kid probably hasn't gone out yet, why don't we take care of him together?" he asked with uncertain eyes.

"Just a child, no threat." Sun He waved to several people gathered nearby, "After entering, attack the boy named Tang Shi first. I heard that he is also an awakened person, and his strength is not weak. When the time comes, we will go together and knock him down with all our strength, do you hear me?"

"I know Brother Sun, what should I do with that child?"

"It's just a child. I can crush him to death with one hand. Don't worry about him. Then just attack Tang Shi with all your strength. Nanzi, remember to use a gun to sneak attack. Even if he is a powerful awakened person, he is still a human being and will still die. . Just follow the way we used to take jobs, first make a sneak attack, then attack in groups!"

"I know, Brother Sun."

"Walk!"

Several awakened people hiding in the crowd of survivors arrogantly pushed away the ordinary people who were blocking the way, "Get out of the way, don't fucking block the way!"

As soon as the survivors saw their posture, they knew that they were awakened ones. They were afraid to hide away and automatically made a way for them to go.

Seeing them all the way upstairs, someone sighed, "Whose family is going to suffer again? They actually provoked the Awakened. They will definitely be dead."
