Epoch of Twilight

Chapter 155: Call for help

Views:

It was a pair of frightened and desperate eyes.

This is a group of survivors hiding here, there are quite a few of them, and there are more people hiding in completely dark corners, even Luo Yuan cannot see clearly. Due to the dim light here, they had no idea what was coming in at the door

The only thing you can do is hold your breath and be alert. Luo Yuan saw several people's teeth chattering because of nervousness, making "gurgle" sounds in the quiet environment. Even if it was completely dark here, the so-called hiding was of no use.

"I'm a human, don't be nervous!"

Luo Yuan's voice immediately caused a commotion in the crowd. Many people stood up in relief, and some began to shout with joy.

"If you want to die, don't go there."

"Shut up, don't make a sound!"

Soon someone yelled in a suppressed voice. Although the tone was stern, strangely, the voice was trembling slightly.

When everyone heard this, they suddenly panicked again. Several people took a few steps and ran back in a hurry. Their faces looked indescribably frightened, and the crowd trembled even more.

A trace of doubt flashed in Luo Yuan's heart, thinking that they had encountered villains before. After all, in the apocalypse, order collapsed, and such people abound. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he hurriedly said: "Don't be nervous, everyone. I No harm, just going to this supermarket to find something?”

The crowd was silent, and no one spoke except for the sounds of breathing and teeth chattering.

Luo Yuan wanted to laugh, but couldn't. Maybe ordinary people in the apocalypse are like this. Apart from being scared, the only thing they can do is to wait for death. If there is no system, I'm afraid he won't be much better. He sighed and said directly road. "There's really no need to be afraid. I need a few tents. Can I bring something in exchange?"

If he doesn't say anything and continues to act like an ostrich, he will find it himself.

The crowd continued to be quiet for a while, and finally there were whispers. Some people seemed to have a discussion. Soon, a bright flashlight was swept towards this direction, and it was scanned up and down on Luo Yuan's body several times. The strong and dazzling light made Luo Yuan narrow his eyes slightly and let him glance up and down.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the tense atmosphere quickly disappeared.

A person who seemed to be the leader stepped out of the crowd and looked at the cracked doorway. His face was gloomy, but he was not angry. He asked warily: "Where did you come from? How is it outside now?"

Through the faint light, Luo Yuan noticed that their skin was very white, even a little transparent. It was obvious that they had not lived in the sun for a long time. However, there was no shortage of various daily necessities here, and the food was very abundant in a short period of time. There was no sign of malnutrition.

"Hedong City, I just happened to pass by here, looking for some supplies. But everything outside has been occupied. When I came here, it was already a forest!" Luo Yuandao.

There was a commotion in the crowd, but no one interrupted. It was obvious that this person had high prestige here.

"How is that possible?" The man looked shocked and said, "Then how did you get here?"

"I came here by luck. There were several dangers along the way and I almost lost my life." Luo Yuan knew that he couldn't explain it to them, so he said so.

"You are so lucky. We have tents here, so you don't need to exchange anything for it, and you don't need to be rude. Just leave as soon as you get it! We will close the door later." The man said coldly, and then called a few people, waving hands. Call to find a tent.

"Can you give me some flashlights too?"

"Yes, but I can only give you two and one box of batteries. We don't have many, so don't be greedy!" Although the man had a cold attitude, he did not refuse. Maybe it was because he saw Luo Yuan coming from Hedong City alone, or maybe he thought that these people were not just one person.

"How long have you lived here?"

"More than five months, we have long forgotten the specific length of time!" the man said coldly.

"Don't you want to leave?" Luo Yuan said. He is almost waiting to die here. Even if the food here cannot be eaten, it will spoil one day. By then, there will be only death.

"Leave, are you kidding me?" The man sneered: "I also advise you to leave Jiaping City as soon as possible, otherwise you won't know how you will die by then."

Luo Yuan heard that there seemed to be something in his words. Thinking of everyone's strange reactions just now, Luo Yuan's heart moved and asked: "Have you ever encountered anything?"

Everyone's expressions suddenly changed.

A trace of fear flashed across the man's face. He struggled for a while and said in a hoarse voice, "Stop asking. You don't want to know. It's up to you whether you want to or not."

Luo Yuan didn't get angry, but became even more curious. What on earth made them so angry that they didn't even dare to mention it.

There were supplies everywhere in the warehouse, and soon someone found the location for the tents, took the fifth and sixth tents and placed them in front of Luo Yuan from a distance.

"Get out of here as soon as you get the stuff!"

After the man finished speaking, he led everyone back far away, and then he was completely hidden in the darkness.

Luo Yuan was confused, frowned slightly, finally exhaled softly, picked four intact tents, and walked out of the warehouse on the fourth floor.

He didn't pay attention to the warnings of these people. After all, he had walked through mountains of swords and seas of fire. What kind of mutated creatures had he not seen? With his current strength, not to mention dark blue-level creatures, even light green-level creatures may not be able to survive. fight.

Creatures that are extremely dangerous to ordinary people are nothing more than that to him.

But even so, he felt vaguely uneasy in his heart, and he couldn't get rid of it.

Jiaping City was too quiet, too quiet. All the creatures seemed to be sleeping. Along the way, he hardly saw a slightly more powerful creature, and there was not even a breath. This was for a completely fallen area. Said, it is really abnormal.

However, for them who have basically completed their purpose, they can leave the city soon, and no matter how dangerous it is, it will not affect them.

Luo Yuan walked out of the supermarket building surrounded by plants with the supplies. Seeing him coming back, everyone relaxed in unison, and then several women excitedly went through the supplies Luo Yuan had brought.

Luo Yuan looked at the hole that he had destroyed, and couldn't help but feel a little apologetic. The plants outside the supermarket protected the survivors inside to a certain extent. Now that a big hole has been broken, this protection has disappeared. Now only Make up for it as much as possible.

He turned to Chen Xianfeng in the distance and said, "There are still survivors here. Go and move some big rocks over and help them block the hole."

"There are actually people here." Zhao Yali said in surprise: "Don't they want to follow us out?"

"It will be more dangerous for them after they come out." Huo Dong said lightly: "It's better to just live a life and live day by day!"

Luo Yuan felt a little heavy in his heart. The end of the world was coming, and humans, as the masters of this city, had been reduced to lingering like rats in the gutter. In this seemingly dead and uninhabited city, there were probably no less than ten thousand survivors.

In response to Luo Yuan's order, Chen Xianfeng nodded and strode out nearby without saying a word.

There are collapsed buildings everywhere. Although there are few boulders, there is no shortage of concrete blocks.

Soon he moved a piece of concrete with a diameter of more than one meter and weighing five or six tons, and walked towards this side with heavy steps. Even Luo Yuan could not match such strength. God knows, after the mutation, his strength was already great. To what extent.

The concrete was put down heavily, making a loud noise, and then blocked the entrance of the cave, then stood aside and ignored it.

Luo Yuan used vines to cover it up again. He clapped his palms and examined them carefully. As long as he didn't look carefully, he wouldn't be able to tell that there was a hole here, and it would only take a few days for the plants to regenerate. Cover the area and everything will be restored to its original state.

On the other side, Huang Jiahui and others have carefully divided all the supplies into several portions, packed them in mountain climbing bags, and carried them on their backs.

The lesson learned from the last loss of supplies made everyone understand that you must not put all your eggs in one basket. Although it saved trouble at the time, once a problem occurs, the whole army will definitely be wiped out.

"Help, help!"

At this moment, Luo Yuan suddenly paused and listened attentively. There was a faint voice calling for help in the distance, which made him slightly surprised.

"What's wrong?" Huang Jiahui noticed something was wrong in Luo Yuan's expression and asked doubtfully.

"It seems like someone is calling for help. They should be nearby." Luo Yuan said hesitantly: "Did you hear it?"

Everyone shook their heads in confusion, only Chen Xianfeng looked slightly uncertain.

"Let's go over and take a look!" Luo Yuan said.

Everyone picked up their luggage and walked in the direction of the sound.

As soon as they turned the corner of the street, the cry for help suddenly became clear, and now even others heard it.

The person calling for help was obviously a woman, and her voice was very sharp and penetrating.

Continue walking for a while.

"Wait!" Cao Lin's expression suddenly changed and she said, "How long has she been shouting now?"

"We seem to have been walking for more than a minute!" Lin Xiaoji took an estimate and said. Then his face turned a little ugly.

Luo Yuan also realized that this cry for help was a bit weird. How could ordinary people keep shouting for help, and they were so angry? In such a dangerous environment of the end of the world, calling for help so loudly would not only attract more mutant beasts, There was no effect in hastening her death, but now she was still alive and well, and had enough energy to shout.

Moreover, upon careful analysis, this cry for help appears to be very mechanical. Each time it is more like a repetition, without any change in tone, and it does not even have the fear and despair that normal people would have when encountering danger.

A chill rose from the hearts of everyone, and even Luo Yuan felt a little hairy in his heart.

Wang Shishi subconsciously grabbed Luo Yuan's clothes. She was most afraid of this kind of thing. No matter how strong she was, she couldn't stop the fear of ghosts in her heart.

Psychologically speaking, ferocious beasts are far less scary than fantasy ghosts and ghosts. Real creatures can be eliminated, but the fantasy fear in the mind can never be overcome. Because of the unknown, there is fear.

"How about we go back?" Cao Lin asked carefully, already feeling a little discouraged.

"Let's go and take a look. I want to know what the hell is going on here?" Luo Yuan's face was cold and stern. Even if he had lured us over, he had to be prepared to pay the price.

"I said, it can't be a female ghost, right?" Hearing the increasingly clear calls for help, the thing was coming this way, Huo Dong made a joke with a stiff face.

"You want to die!" Master Wang glared at him and said bitterly.

"There are so many ghosts and monsters in the world, and even if they exist, they are all mutated creatures." Luo Yuan said lightly.

To a certain extent, Luo Yuan is the confidence in everyone's heart. Seeing his calm face, everyone seems to have a little more courage in their hearts. Although everyone is still nervous, their faces have become much better.
