Luo Yuan originally thought that his previous experience was cruel enough, but the facts before him gave him a heavy blow.
He couldn't imagine what it would be like in the future
But he knows one thing: as the ocean continues to erode, countless survivor bases built along the coast will be submerged by the sea, countless people will die silently, and the entire human living environment will become increasingly worse.
He returned to the fortifications in despair, found a corner, and sat down on the ground. His face was blank, and he was in a trance. He seemed to be thinking, but his mind was blank. It wasn't until the sky gradually darkened that he felt a surge of energy all over his body. Come to your senses.
Can't wait any longer and must get out of here as soon as possible
Set off early tomorrow morning!
He didn't know why, but he had a bad feeling. If he didn't leave as soon as possible, this place would become extremely dangerous.
He stood up and started searching for the ammunition here.
Two sniper rifles, a total of eighteen rifles, several boxes of grenades and bullets, and finally Luo Yuan was lucky enough to find a dozen spare combat uniforms in the closet.
The clothes of this group of soldiers had long since rotted and were no longer usable, so these were just the thing.
Luo Yuan whistled and waited quietly at the door for a while. The monitor lizard finally came over. It was quite irritable and its nostrils kept snoring.
Luo Yuan comforted it for a while, and after waiting for its mood to stabilize a little, he went outside, cut a vine, peeled off its bark, and twisted it into several thin ropes. He tried it and found it was quite strong. Then he put several boxes together. A bundle is tightly tied, connected two by two, and hung on the back of the monitor lizard.
When Luo Yuan jumped on the giant lizard, before he could give the order, the giant lizard had already taken steps and ran forward as if escaping.
The setting sun cast a long shadow on people and animals. Luo Yuan looked back at the dilapidated cross-sea bridge. Maybe this would be the last time he saw it.
…
While passing by a certain street, something happened in his heart, and the giant lizard suddenly stopped.
He turned over and jumped, walked to the side of a certain building, and searched carefully. The blade of the knife opened the nearby vines, revealing a huge boulder. He pushed hard and moved the several-ton boulder away. A large hole more than one meter high was exposed inside.
Immediately, he stooped and walked in.
This is a supermarket that Luo Yuan visited a few days ago. There is a group of survivors living here. Now that there is a situation on the other side of the bay, Luo Yuan, who is also a survivor, feels the need to remind them so that they can prepare early.
This is basic morality, and it is also the final bottom line that Luo Yuan adheres to.
As for whether they listen to it in the end, believe it or not, that can only be decided by them. The cruelty of the apocalypse has made him look down on life and death. Even an ordinary person will harden his heart after seeing too much.
He quickly walked to the warehouse on the fourth floor where the survivors were. The iron door that was originally destroyed by Luo Yuan had been replaced with a new one. He didn't know where it was removed from. He hesitated for a moment, but still had no intention of going in. .
He knocked hard on the door.
"Is anyone still there?"
Luo Yuan's voice kept echoing in the empty supermarket, making it seem particularly quiet.
"Don't be nervous. If you remember my voice, you should know that I came here a few days ago!" Luo Yuan continued.
After a full ten seconds, there was finally a response this time.
"Damn, shut up, what do you want to do? Didn't you get enough last time? We don't have anything anymore?" Someone said in a suppressed voice, but there was anger and irritability in his tone: "If you are so loud, you will cause trouble. Yes, everyone will die by then!”
"Don't talk to him, he is a disaster. If he hadn't come in last time, Xiaofeng would not have died. If he dares to come in, we will fight him!" Another person said excitedly, and then there was a commotion inside. sounds and fierce arguments.
"That's because he's looking for death. He's so bold that he wants to go out and see. What's the result?" one person said.
"It's not him. If he hadn't come in and made Xiaofeng think it was safe outside, would he have gone out? It's all his fault. It's all his fault." Another person said with a hoarse voice.
"Keep your voice down, keep your voice down, are you willing to bring in those demons?" Another person said dissatisfied.
It was a noisy group inside, quarreling with each other. Obviously they didn't know that it was quite safe outside these days, but even if they knew, they probably wouldn't go out again. They were like a group of frightened birds, and the fear of death made them rather shrink back. In the dark warehouse, I ate rotten food every day and didn't dare to go out and take a look.
Luo Yuan suddenly hesitated whether to tell them the cruel truth.
Maybe sometimes ignorance is a blessing, and knowing too much is a kind of torture. Or maybe they already know that they won't live long, but they just deceive themselves. Just the problem of food is a difficult gate to cross.
After much hesitation, Luo Yuan did not say anything in the end. He just informed that this place has become increasingly dangerous. He and others will leave here tomorrow. If you want to follow, you can go to Lanting Subway Station before seven o'clock the next morning, and then head there. If you don't come back, leave.
Sitting on the back of the giant lizard, Luo Yuan sighed. He didn't know how many people would follow tomorrow, but he knew very well that the most likely possibility was that there would be none.
…
"Why aren't you here?" Huang Jiahui looked anxious.
She looked at her watch. It was already past five o'clock. She set off at noon, but she still hasn't come yet. Could something have happened? Then he secretly took a sip, he must be fine, now it is difficult to find the mutant beast in Jiaping City, plus he is so strong, there are strong winds and heavy rains, how can something happen!
"It should be coming soon, maybe it was delayed due to something." Wang Xiaguang advised, but his face didn't look much better.
"How about I go look for it!" Master Wang said immediately.
Huang Jiahui hesitated for a moment and shook her head: "Forget it, it's almost dark!"
Zhao Yali didn't speak at the side, but she pinched the corners of her clothes hard with her hands, feeling a little restless.
The soldiers are still sleeping soundly, snoring loudly. In this state, they will not wake up until the next day. The body is overdrawn for a long time and obviously needs enough sleep to adjust.
It was getting dark, and except for the pile of ashes nearby that was even extinguished, the subway station was pitch black without a trace of light.
"How about we eat first?" Lin Xiaoji squatted on the ground boredly, touched his stomach that was already growling, and couldn't help but said.
The food has been prepared for a while. The meat of these mutated beasts is rich in colloid and will freeze over time. The meat will also become hard and cannot be chewed without good teeth.
"If you are really hungry, you can eat first. Are we waiting?" Huang Jiahui said softly.
"Then forget it." Lin Xiaoji said calmly. He was just making a suggestion. He really didn't dare to let him eat alone.
I don't know how long it took, but the sound of heavy footsteps gradually came from the distance. The sound became clearer and clearer, and the ground began to shake slightly. After a while, it came nearby and stopped quickly.
Huang Jiahui breathed a sigh of relief and stood up!
"It's the footsteps of the giant lizard. Brother Luo is back." Wang Shishi said in surprise.
"I'll heat up the food first!" Cao Lin said happily
Before he finished speaking, Luo Yuan's figure had already appeared at the subway station.
"Why so late?" Huang Jiahui blamed.
"There is something delayed!" Luo Yuan said solemnly, and then said to Huo Dong and Lin Xiaoji: "Don't rush to eat now, you two go and move in the weapons and ammunition at the door first!"
After all, Huang Jiahui immediately noticed something strange about Luo Yuan and asked worriedly: "What happened?"
"There is a problem on the cross-sea bridge. The sea level has risen a lot. I can't tell clearly at the moment." Luo Yuandao: "But it makes me feel very bad. We can't stay here anymore. It's better to leave early than to leave late. Tomorrow Let’s set off for Shanghai.”
"Are you too impatient? Lao Huang is not recovered yet!" Wang Xiaguang looked at the anxious Zhao Yali and said.
"I was worried that it would be too late!" Luo Yuan sighed.
Everyone's expressions changed. Even Luo Yuan said this. It was obvious that the situation was quite serious.
Luo Yuan looked at Zhao Yali who was hesitant to speak, and said softly: "As for Lao Huang, don't worry, I will feed him with food bricks tonight, and there should be no problem walking tomorrow."
The atmosphere was a bit dull during the meal, everyone was occupied with their own thoughts.
These three days of comfort made them almost forget about the cruelty and bloodshed outside. The thought of having to experience the ups and downs again, with their lives hanging on a thread, made everyone feel a little depressed.
…
After everyone finished eating, Zhao Yali quietly put away the dishes. In the past few days, except for occasionally talking to Wang Xiaguang, she had rarely spoken. She always felt a little separated and out of tune with them.
Luo Yuan looked at her familiar movements, which made him trance back to the rental house before the end of the world.
At that time, she was still someone else's fiancée. Every time in the summer, every time he wiped the table, the inadvertent leak of love would make his heart beat faster.
Many people think she is squeamish, but that is just because she is timid. She can clean the room every day, cook good food, and keep all the housework in order.
She was not used to holding a knife and cutting the mutated beast into pieces, nor was she used to shooting and making bloody holes. She is just an ordinary woman, resigned and even somewhat naive.
Luo Yuan sighed, and after she wiped the table quickly, he stood up and asked her to come out.
Zhao Yali hesitated for a moment, then stood up and followed out, saying with a cold face: "Why did you ask me to come out?"
Since that conflict, Luo Yuan hadn't spoken to her for a long time, and he was lukewarm towards her, which made her feel sour and secretly resentful in her heart.
"There is something I want to tell you!" Luo Yuan didn't know how to say it. He thought for a while and said solemnly: "I just said that the tide has risen across the sea. In fact, the situation is better than what I said before. It’s much more serious. It has become an endless sea, and the survivor team you were with is nowhere to be found. Judging from the rapid intensity of the tide, their situation may not be very good. "
Zhao Yali covered her mouth and looked pale.
"If you know anyone, please express my condolences." Luo Yuan comforted him palely.
Luo Yuan added in his mind, so you can't go anywhere.
