Without any process of soaring temperature, this time the weather change came without warning.
The heavy rain continued, lightning and thunder, and the heavy rain that fell vertically from the sky solidified due to the low temperature when it was close to the surface, and made a violent sound when it hit the ground, crackling and crackling. The temperature did not change at all. The closer to the north, the torrential rain directly turned into snow and hailstones in mid-air, and fell down.
The weather was so dark that even a single ray of sunlight could not penetrate, and the planes and vehicles on the ground could not be used remotely. Hou Ying and Li Xuanyuan had to use the Vine Helicopter to take Li Hou and Little Apple back to the Yellow River base.
To their surprise, this weather change did not immediately erupt a wave of zombies.
The lucky survivors were doomed to be disappointed. At noon the next day, the roar of zombies was still fighting amidst the roaring thunder, and the four major bases were reduced to purgatory on earth at the same time.
Unsurprisingly, a tsunami occurred at the Pearl River base, and the fourth defensive wall was barely supporting it. Ability users above the third level gathered here, and the day and night non-stop battle kicked off from this moment. The Yellow River base is the northernmost and the coldest place. Hou Ying "fell ill" as soon as she arrived here, and once again lived in a soundproof room, unable to move an inch.
Xuanyuan Hui and Li Han tried to visit him several times but were rejected. Even Li Hou was turned away and Xuanyuan Hui took care of him. Only Li Xuanyuan came back to see him once a day but couldn't stay for long—the number of zombies this time Compared with the previous level, it has more than doubled.
Hou Ying also had a hard time, he never thought that he would lose the chain again at a critical moment.
The signs of the zombie virus in his left eye disappeared, but this was not a good thing.
—The zombie virus is out of control.
It was the first time that the zombie virus that was scurrying all over his body had such a strong sense of existence. Even Hou Ying, who had never been aware of it, could clearly feel its flow in the blood vessels. The pain of the blood vessels being stretched and bumped made him Almost unable to move.
Compared with the last time, Hou Ying's state is much better. Although he doesn't know the reason, this time he can control his hearing ability very well.
The sound he heard became very blurred, and the weakening of the soundproof room could only play a weak role, but there were always some unwilling zombies trying to disturb his mind, yelling persistently outside his isolation, forcing him to stop Hearing abilities can block all sounds, but despite this, the roar of the zombies still rang in his ears from far and near, as if urging him and begging him.
Li Xuanyuan only came back for an hour at a time, taking a short rest while replenishing the power consumption.
His expression was in a hurry, reflecting the unsatisfactory battle situation outside. It's true that Li Xuanyuan is a level six supernatural being, but he can't take care of all aspects by himself, and the appearance of fifth level zombies has caused heavy losses to the supernatural beings at the Yellow River base. Moreover, the weather is very unfavorable to them. The blue and purple lightning is close at hand. Zombies and humans have been killed and injured. Today, there was even a thunderbolt that fell directly on the protective wall of the outer city and split a crack, which injured many people. The supernatural beings give the zombies an opportunity. If Li Xuanyuan hadn't arrived in time to stop the tide of zombies and give the five elements supernatural beings time to repair the city wall, the consequences would have been disastrous.
It was also this battle that consumed Li Xuanyuan's abilities too much, so he hurried back after controlling the situation.
When Hou Ying transmitted energy to him again, he heard him talk about his idea of using the fifth-level crystal nucleus to lure the fifth-level zombies, she pondered for a while and said, "I will go with you."
"...I won't risk myself, don't worry."
This kind of refusal was very tactful, Li Xuanyuan wanted to take care of Hou Ying's mood, after all he knew how frustrated and annoyed Hou Ying was that he couldn't be by his side when he needed it but had to rely on his own care.
Hou Ying shook her head, "Staying here is also worried about the outbreak of the zombie virus, but it's not an option to sit and wait like this, maybe we can find a way after we go out." Seeing that Li Xuanyuan wanted to stop it, Hou Ying said: "Xuanyuan, hiding will never solve the problem. "
If you can hide once or twice, will you hide forever in the future
It's not a matter of being useless or not, but the feeling of hanging your life out of your control is very bad. If possible, no matter how big the risk is, Hou Ying would like to find out the reason why the zombie virus is out of control and how to suppress it. The method, obviously, cannot be obtained by hiding in a soundproof room.
Hou Ying's insistence convinced Li Xuanyuan, and the two reported to Xuanyuan Hui and his wife, and then went out with Li Xuanyuan's vine helicopter.
The drainage system of the Yellow River base is much worse than that of the Pearl River base. The water on the road has already overflowed to the waist, and the transportation is impassable. Hou Ying and Li Xuanyuan went out fully armed, and when they landed, before Li Xuanyuan could observe the terrain, Hou Ying, who had been silent all this time, suddenly took off his helmet.
"Hou Ying! What are you doing?!"
Li Xuanyuan snatched the helmet and was about to buckle it on his head, but Hou Ying raised her hand to stop him.
The rain has turned into snow at low temperatures, and the hexagonal snowflakes are full of weight. When they hit the water, they make a slight sound and quickly melt like their predecessors. Hou Ying took a mouthful of snowflakes in her mouth, her eyes changed a little, and she said after swallowing the snowflakes: "The environment here, and the snow, can calm down the zombie virus."
"It is likely to carry a zombie virus!"
Li Xuanyuan looked at him sternly, Hou Ying smiled, patted his helmet and said: "So you must not touch it."
"Hou Ying, I'm not joking with you."
Li Xuanyuan was very angry.
Hou Ying sighed slightly, and said with deep eyes: "Xuanyuan, I feel that I need it. It's like an instinct tells me that this is what I need now. I don't know what the consequences will be, but Xuanyuan, it It calms me down."
But what if the infection of the zombie virus is aggravated
Li Xuanyuan didn't ask, and Hou Ying didn't have the confidence to say that nothing would happen, but his intuition told him that he must do this.
Li Xuanyuan was very angry, but there was nothing he could do about it. Seeing that Hou Ying had really escaped from the state where the zombie virus had skyrocketed out of control, and even the signs of the zombie virus in her left eye had not recurred, she didn't know whether to be happy or worried, so she could only pay attention If he finds something wrong, take him away.
After taking out the fifth-level crystal nucleus and waiting for a while, not to mention the fifth-level zombies, there was not even a first-level zombie.
Li Xuanyuan looked at Hou Ying, who touched his nose resentfully, and said, "It seems that they are really afraid of me."
When she came out, Hou Ying completely forgot about it. Helpless, the two can only take the initiative to act in the direction of the zombie tide. Although there are many zombies, except for some low-level first-level and second-level zombies, when Hou Ying approached, the high-level zombies roared unwillingly, but one after another ran away from the range that Hou Ying could perceive the zombie crystal nucleus. When they got there, they stopped running. Compared with Hou Ying, they were more eager for certain things in the main city.
Hou Ying also noticed this kind of thing.
His throat was dry and curled up, as if there was a delicious food tempting him, making him want to get it by any means. Hou Ying strangled her neck, her expression became a little painful, the desire for that kind of thing completely overwhelmed his reason, which made him lose his eyesight for a moment, and almost became as innocent as these fanatical zombies. A creature without reason but instinct.
Fortunately, Li Xuanyuan quickly noticed his strangeness, and after he couldn't regain his sanity, he slapped him hard on the head, Hou Ying recovered from the pain, and Li Xuanyuan asked in surprise: "What's wrong? I take you back?"
Hou Ying shook her head, pressed her painful temple and said, "Xuanyuan, take me up the city wall."
He had to figure out what made him and the zombies so eager. It's just... Thinking of a certain possibility, Hou Ying looked into Li Xuanyuan's eyes, and said solemnly: "Watch me closely, stop me as soon as I find something wrong, and take me away."
Li Xuanyuan opened his mouth to say something, but Hou Ying's firm and patient expression made him give up trying to dissuade him, just nodded, and led him to cross the siege of zombies in the air and head towards the outer city.
The closer you get to the outer city, the stronger that feeling becomes.
Hou Ying, who put on the helmet again, concealed her unpredictable expression well, and Li Xuanyuan led him to land in the battle area of Xuanyuan's family.
Xuanyuanhui is in charge of the overall situation in the city, and the battle against the zombie tide is currently under the command of Li Han, and even the Shen family and the Chang family must follow the instructions of the Xuanyuan family. No matter what the two families plan, they have to obey and cooperate under the current situation.
Li Han was very surprised to see them, and walked over quickly after explaining to his deputy.
Hou Ying took a step back silently. Li Han, who hadn't spoken yet, was taken aback by his reaction, and said, "Aren't you... Hou Ying is still sick, why did you bring him out, messing around."
Hou Ying's non-warm eyes flicked across the heads of the survivors and the busy logistics people in the outer city, and finally landed on Li Han. Before Li Xuanyuan could say anything, he smiled and said, "Dad, it's me!" If you want to come out and have a look, then go back.”
The tide of zombies has been going on for three days. This is the first time Li Han saw Hou Ying after he came back. He couldn't help but care about his physical condition. Seeing that he spoke clearly and didn't seem to be reluctant, he also accepted him and said no. I feel a little relieved to say that there is a big problem. Hearing that Hou Ying wanted Li Xuanyuan to take her back to rest, Li Han naturally did not stop her.
Li Xuanyuan took him back to the soundproof room, Hou Ying opened his mouth to speak, but very vigilantly asked Li Xuanyuan to cover up the twin banyan leaves to isolate any possibility of eavesdropping on their conversation through the metal partition wall.
His cautiousness made Li Xuanyuan feel uneasy, only to hear Hou Ying say: "Xuanyuan, I know what the zombies want."
