The Scavengers

Chapter 100: 105|October 28 afternoon to evening

Views:

The roads in the town are full of abandoned vehicles, and it is difficult to walk on even the wide roads.

Lei Bing asked people with earth powers to try to push the cars on the road to both sides, so that the trucks could reach their destination smoothly.

So what should Xiao Mo do

Cheng Zai thought that the alien car should be able to fly, right? So they flew directly over the town to the supermarket and then landed

Xue Lihong regained the right to drive and drove to the intersection of the town.

Then he drove in very lightly amid the piles of abandoned cars and debris.

Cheng Zai looked at the windshield and could feel the cars passing by, but how on earth did such a big car squeeze into so many abandoned cars? He especially wanted to go out and take a look.

Perhaps Cheng Zai looked back at him with a confused expression, so Xiao Mo kindly explained to him: "According to your brother Xue, this car has a space folding function that can make you extremely slim, that is... you can think of it as a car that can grow bigger. Can be transformed into small Transformers to see.”

Xiao Mo stepped forward, pointed to the display screen, and clicked: "Look here, this is our car. Through the satellite, you can see the panoramic view of the vehicle driving on the road. Now our car..." read out what was displayed on the screen. Data: "The width is only 0.3 meters and the length is 1 meter. It is narrower than a bicycle, and it can be segmented like a snake bone in the middle."

Cheng Zai looked at the screen, and it took him a long time to say one word: "Cool!" Then he asked: "Brother Xiao, how small can this car be?"

Xiao Mo stretched out his paw and patted Xue Lihong on the shoulder, "I'm asking you, doctor."

Xue Lihong grabbed his hand and squeezed it.

Xiao Mo quickly retracted his hand.

Xue Lihong didn't care, and looked at the road ahead and answered casually: "It can be half smaller than the current apparent volume. This is the minimum value. After all, it is a first-generation product. The space scaling of the material that holds the space itself is not as good as that in the earth's science fiction. Mecha collection button.”

Cheng Zaigang wanted to ask how he knew so clearly, but suddenly shouted: "Wow! What is this!"

A mechanical arm stretched out from the front end of the base vehicle, moving aside the debris that was tightly packed on the road, and forcibly opening a path.

"Read the instructions yourself." Xue Lihong controlled the steering wheel with one hand, stepped on the accelerator, looked at the navigation display from the corner of her eye, and gradually increased the speed under her feet.

Cheng Zai stuck out his tongue and lowered his head to read the function introduction.

This car is probably so that it can walk freely on the earth without being suspected. Most of the interior of the car simulates the vehicle configuration of the earth. Xuelihong also tried her best to transform some functions that were not convenient for people on earth into tools and interfaces that everyone is accustomed to, such as control panels that are everywhere in the car.

This car can also drive automatically, which is the basic function of the car's intelligence. However, Xue Lihong likes to drive by herself and pushes others by herself, so he deliberately did not remind Xiao Mo of this.

And Xiao Mo was used to seeing self-driving as science fiction, so he didn't think about it for a moment.

Seeing Cheng Zai start to lower his head and work hard, Xiao Mo smiled and patted the back of his head and went back to look at the two children.

Two children are using the control panel to kill a large number of mutant rats outside.

The mutant rat stopped chasing the car without the angel's order and without smelling the food.

However, the two children were very playful and wanted to tease the mutant rat on the roadside. I saw vehicles passing by, and from time to time a pool of blood would explode on the roadside. Because of the target locking function, the two men almost missed their shots.

"Eh? Xiaoyuan, your hand?"

Wu Xiaoyuan's body trembled, as if frightened, and his body became stiff.

Xiao Mo knelt down and gently grabbed his right hand. The child was so happy that he forgot to hide his little paws.

The child wanted to withdraw his hand, but did not dare to move. The rosy little face turned pale little by little, as if waiting for the verdict.

Xiao Mo didn't know that he had scared the child, so he just held the child's hand and looked carefully.

This can no longer be called a hand, it should be called a right paw. Starting from the wrist, the skin has completely turned into a black and blue cuticle, which feels extremely hard to the touch. There are still five fingers, but they are also cuticles, and the fingertips that should have been nails have grown into sharp blades that are two inches long.

Xiao Mo gently wiped the tip of his claw with his finger, a red mark appeared and blood beads appeared.

"It's so sharp. Xiao Yuan, can you take it back... Don't be afraid, kid." When Xiao Mo looked at the kid's eyes, his heart skipped a beat. He quickly put his hand around his back and stroked him gently, while speaking to comfort him: "It's just, uh, it's just ... Some kind of change in superpowers. Yes, you, Uncle Xiao, and I also have two superpowers, but you... maybe you are strong not because of your power, but because of the added value brought by this superpower."

The child stared straight at Xiao Mo. His eyes were like those of a small ferocious beast, showing the intimidating light of seeing a powerful enemy. His lips were also slightly opened, and the shaking teeth on them fell off, revealing a sharper inverted triangle. Teeth appear. It's just that the teeth are not big, and it still looks like a cub.

"Bah." His teeth fell to the ground.

Lin Xiaofei, who was playing a "game", lowered his head and saw the tooth on the ground.

This is the second time Xiao Mo has seen such a change in humans. The first time was the mother of gluttonous beasts.

Is this a superpower, or...!

"Your Majesty! Is Xiao Yuan suffering from an illness? How to solve it?" Xiao Mo went to the doctor in a hurry, asking the system in his mind.

Although he asked, Xiao Mo did not expect the system to answer.

But the system seemed to be particularly willing to go against him during this period, and even answered him, although the answer was still that he wanted to beat it to death!

"Solve it? Kill and recycle." His Majesty the System said.

Xiao Mo quickly calmed down and said, "Can you tell me what the name of the virus in him is? Let alone non-relevant tasks, since one has appeared, there must be other people who have changed like this. You should spread the knowledge."

The system said, "Please beg me."

Xiao Mo said black line, "Your Majesty, have you smoked?"

The system is silent.

Xiao Mo was so angry that he slapped himself on the forehead. He was so stupid. Why did he reveal his true thoughts like this? Even if he wanted to, don't think so hard.

Thoughts were racing through my mind, but in reality it only took two blinks.

Wu Xiaoyuan slowly took out his paw and placed it on Xiao Mo's neck. The movement was like a caress, but also like a threat.

Xiao Mo felt the coldness coming from the skin of his neck, and a tolerant smile of an older man appeared on his face, "Ohara is so amazing, he can turn his hands like this, so that he can protect everyone in the future. Xiao Yuan, tell Uncle Xiao, you are like this Will your hand hurt?"

Wu Xiaoyuan still stared at Xiao Mo closely, as if he was trying to judge whether the other party was kind or malicious towards him.

Xiao Mo tentatively reached out and picked up the child.

Wu Xiaoyuan was startled and naturally used his claws harder.

Blood lines appear. But Xiao Mo smiled and said nonchalantly: "Don't be afraid. Your uncle Xiao has thick skin and is not afraid of being scratched. You don't have to be so nervous."

The child turned to stare at his neck and found that the wound he had just made had disappeared. If there wasn't still a little blood, he would have suspected that he had just seen it wrong.

Aren't you angry? The child turned his gaze back to Xiao Mo. His body was still stiff, but the vigilant and fierce light in his eyes had weakened a lot.

Lin Xiaofei had already picked up the tooth. He played with it curiously for a while, then raised his head and showed it to Wu Xiaoyuan, "Xiaoyuan, your tooth."

Wu Xiaoyuan's eyes shifted again, looking at the small white grain in the little hand raised high.

He licked his newly grown teeth and felt a little strange. But as a kid, I didn’t think too much.

Xiao Mo saw that Wu Xiaoyuan didn't take the tooth, so he reached out to take it and said with a smile: "It's the upper tooth, so you have to throw it under the bed."

Lin Xiaofei interjected, "You can put it in a small box and hide it under the bed. Mine is the same! But since my parents and I left home, I haven't taken out a lot of things, including the teeth I lost before."

Xiao Fei was a little sad, but he quickly cheered up, "Xiao Yuan, we can hide all our teeth in this alien car in the future. Wherever we go, the car will go, so that they will never fall out again!"

Wu Xiaoyuan suddenly reached out and grabbed his teeth, then turned to look at Xiao Mo, and after a while said: "Uncle Xiao, I want a box."

When Xiao Mo heard these words, he felt that the sky was dawning, the flowers were blooming, and life was so beautiful. He immediately smiled so hard that his teeth showed, and he repeatedly agreed: "Okay, okay, uncle will find you a box. Just wait." ah."

The child patted Xiao Mo's neck with his paw, "Uncle Xiao, put me down, I want to kill the mouse."

"Okay, okay." Xiao Mo put the child down, turned around and ran to find the box, but looked back worriedly.

I saw two little cubs, one tall and one short, getting together again and whispering, but this time it was not playing a "game", but the little one opened his mouth wide and proudly showed the little one his new teeth. .

The little one looked in amazement. He turned his head and stared at the only sharp tooth in the mouth. He even reached out to touch it and exclaimed in envy: "Wow, so cool! It looks like the teeth of a little monster. In the future, you will not only use Claws, and you can bite bad guys with your teeth.”

The little one nodded vigorously with a shy belly, and deliberately opened and closed his teeth to make a clicking sound.

Xiao Mo smiled in relief, turned towards the warehouse, and opened the door to the dormitory area. He wanted to have a good talk with Mr. and Mrs. Wu, at least to make them mentally prepared and not to show fear and disgust towards his son in their words and expressions.

"Killing orcs." A voice suddenly came out from the system.

Xiao Mo paused.

System: "That human cub was incubated with a murderous beast species. Last night, it reached the mature conditions of a murderous beast species and transformed into a murderous beastman. You are right about one thing. His great strength does not mean that he has power, but Because of the beast species.”

"What will happen if you become a murderous orc?" There was no one in the passage, so Xiao Mo asked directly.

"As the name suggests, murderous beasts are murderous, cruel and bloody, and do not recognize their relatives. They are suspicious, irritable, and lonely, and cannot tolerate even their own kind. They will become crazy when they see blood, and murderous beasts are usually the first to kill. They are all their own parents.”

"What!" The smile on Xiao Mo's face disappeared.

"Once they kill their parents, according to your words, they are no longer humane and only know how to kill. In order to obtain a group of death squads, a certain force once violated interstellar law and merged the genes of murderous beasts with intelligent creatures. Then use chips to control them, and later this force was eliminated, but the murderous beast species they created was retained."

"Is there a way around it? Other than recycling."

"There is no way to solve it. All the transformers of the murderous beasts discovered so far have without exception turned into ferocious beasts that only know how to kill. And as they grow up, the abilities of the murderous beasts will become stronger and stronger. It is recommended that it is best to start the murderous beasts in their infancy. Just recycle.”

Xiao Mo refused, "As you can see, Xiao Yuan has not lost his humanity, he is just... afraid."

The system was silent for a while, "Wu Xiaoyuan is the first case I know of the combination of a murderous beast species and a human being. Other murderous beast species planted in humans are still in the incubation period, but those planted in beasts have already affected the earth. Creatures cause harm."

Xiao Mo's eyes lit up, "So you're not 100% sure that Xiao Yuan will definitely turn into a murderous beast, right?"

The system seemed to be reluctant to reply: "According to observation, Wu Xiaoyuan's current change is an incomplete change. If it is a complete change, his whole body should be transformed into a murderous beast. If you really don't want to recycle him, then just keep an eye on him. Don't let him transform into a complete murderous beast."

Xiao Mo stood in front of the door of Lao Wu and his wife's room. Thinking of the smiling faces of the two children, he didn't know where the confidence came from, and murmured: "Even if Xiao Yuan turns into a complete murderous beast, his heart will not change. I believe him!"

System: ... I really want to see Wu Xiaoyuan slapped in the face, but I don’t know if Wu Xiaoyuan is willing to kill his parents tonight.

Xue Lihong informed everyone that they had entered the supermarket—yes, this person drove the car directly into the supermarket.

Xiao Mo came out with a box of chocolates and handed it to the two children, "Take it and eat it. You can keep the box for yourselves."

"Oh yes!" Lin Xiaofei took the box, opened it for Wu Xiaoyuan, picked out a brownie and stuffed it into the child's wide-open mouth.

Lin Xiaofei patted Xiao Yuan's head like a brother, hugged him and distributed chocolates to other people in the car.

Xiao Mo felt that Lin Xiaofei's parents really raised their children very well. He thought that the couple were also very good people, but it was a pity that they were not what they believed.

Cheng Zai also saw Wu Xiaoyuan's claws, but this one was more generous than Lin Xiaofei. He even taught the child to poke the chocolate with the tips of his claws and then put it in his mouth.

Xiao Mo thanked the children and took one.

"Ah." Xue Lihong, who was operating the vehicle, turned his head and opened his mouth.

Xiao Mo's chocolate has been brought to his mouth, and he doesn't want to eat it, or not eat it. In the end, he has no choice but to put it into Xue Lihong's mouth.

The young man caught his finger with his teeth and rubbed it gently.

Xiao Mo slowly pulled it out, his face slowly turning red, "Ahem! It looks like there are a lot of mutant rats in the supermarket. Let's get out of the car and deal with them first?"

"No need to go to such trouble." Xue Lihong gestured to Xiao Mo to look at the operation screen, "This is the sound wave function. You can adjust the ultrasonic frequency to repel rats."

Xiao Mo patted the back of his chair, "Great! I have installed this thing in my shop, but it must have high power and can change the frequency. The former will be ineffective if the power is low, and the latter will not work after a while if there are not a few changes. It’s no use waiting for them to adapt.”

"Don't worry, this car is guaranteed to be super powerful when it is released. It can cover the entire supermarket without any problem. As for the applicable ultrasonic frequency, we can try it section by section. It just so happens that there are a large number of ready-made test rats here." Xue Lihong opened her mouth and signaled for another one. pellets.

Xiao Mo pretended not to see it.

Xue Lihong said that the boss was too stingy and the employees were very angry. The result of being angry is - rat abuse!

Ultrasonic waves that are inaudible to humans spread like waves from the bottom of the base vehicle to the surroundings of the supermarket.

The mutant rats that were plundering the supermarket suddenly went crazy!

Everyone in the car, big and small, squeezed to the front, watching through the windshield the mutant rats in the supermarket convulsing and escaping.

Depending on the level of the mutant rat, the mutant rat reacts differently when encountering this ultrasonic attack.

Most of the low-level mutant rats twitched and fell to the ground. The second-level mutated rat was spinning around in circles, making squeaking noises, and seemed to be in extreme pain. Level 3 mutant rats... there aren't any here.

It wasn't until all the mutated rats in the supermarket were gone that Xue Lihong stood up and said, "Go down to pick out the goods and kill the rats on the way. Be careful not to eat anything that has been eaten by rats."

Everyone got excited when they heard that they were going to move the goods.

Wu Xiaoyuan even ran to call his parents and asked them to move out together.

Yuan Yuan came out, but Lao Wu didn't come. She lost too much blood and needed to stay in bed for a while. Although Li Wei had given him a blood transfusion, it was only for emergency purposes. After all, the healthy blood source was also in short supply now.

Yuan Yuan's face was a little pale, and she also saw the changes in her son's right hand, but with Xiao Mo reminding her that he was her most precious child, her expression towards her son did not change at all, and there was even more pity in her eyes.

Seeing her son playing well with Lin Xiaofei, Yuan Yuan couldn't help but thank Lin Xiaofei and asked Xiao Yuan to listen to her little brother's words.

Lin Xiaofei was so embarrassed to be thanked by Yuan Yuan.

Wu Xiaoyuan grabbed Lin Xiaofei's hand and rushed out of the car eagerly, "Mom! Hurry up! I want to eat chocolate, a lot of chocolate!"

Yuan Yuan smiled with tears in her eyes and hurriedly followed, "It's coming, it's coming."

Xiao Mo stopped her at the door of the car, handed her a nail gun, and briefly taught her how to use it.

Xue Lihong and Cheng Zai also got out of the car and closed the door.

This is the largest supermarket in the town. It has three floors. The first floor is for food, the second floor is for daily chemical appliances, and the third floor sells clothes, shoes, socks, bedding, etc.

The supermarket was severely damaged by mutant rats, and many items were chewed to pieces, including canned products with metal casings.

The group of people walked and killed the mutated rats that could not move on the ground. Yuan Yuan's eyelids twitched when she saw her son stabbing the rats to death with his claws, but she did not step forward to stop her - it was better for her son to be stronger and more cruel than a coward who could only be bullied.

Wu Xiaoyuan was so happy when he poked the mouse. Lin Xiaofei disliked the blood and internal organs of the mouse that were too dirty and refused to poke him along with him. Wu Xiaoyuan laughed evilly and carried the dead mouse to scare Lin Xiaofei.

Lin Xiaofei ran away.

The two children actually started chasing and fighting in the supermarket.

Xiao Mo pushed the supermarket shopping cart and asked Xue Lihong with his eyes: Is it safe

Xue Lihong nodded.

Cheng Zai threw down another pack of biscuits and said angrily, "These damn mutated rats! Don't waste them if you don't want to eat them! There aren't many things in the whole supermarket that are still intact."

"Don't worry, come with me." Xue Lihong motioned to follow him to the fresh food area.

Everything in the fresh food area has been eaten by the mutant rats, the ground is full of garbage, and there is a weird rancid smell.

"Where is it?" Xiao Mo discovered a large cave at the base of the wall.

Xue Lihong decrypted: "Mutant rats should have territories according to their levels, and the higher the level of mutant rats, the higher their IQs will be. In addition, rats have the habit of hoarding food. As winter is approaching, their Their nature will make them store a lot of food. After knowing that there were mutant rats in this town, I didn't expect to find much in the supermarket from the beginning. If I guessed correctly, Lei Bing and the others probably didn't find it at the grain and oil station either How much food."

As expected, Cheng Zai soon received a contact from Major General Zhang, telling them not to have too many expectations for food. At present, the other party also knows that they have entered the town.

Cheng Zai, with Xue Lihong’s consent, reminded them to look for mouse holes.

After hearing this, Major General Zhang was enlightened and overjoyed.

"You said everything is in the mouse hole?" Xiao Mo asked.

"To be precise, it should be in their lair."

Xiao Mo thought Xiao Hong was going to take them into the hole at the base of the wall, but he turned around and said, "Let's go upstairs."

So you have grown old just to make sure your inference is correct

The group got on the bus again. During this period, the ultrasonic wave to repel rats was kept on.

The elevators in the supermarket have been out of service, so you need to take the stairs, but this is not a problem for a multi-functional base vehicle that can fly up and drill holes down.

The situation on the second floor is a little better, probably because the mutant rats are not interested in these inedible things. Except for some bitten parts, most of them are still good.

"Toilet paper!" Yuan Yuan rushed over in surprise. Opposite the toilet paper shelf were rows of feminine hygiene products.

Xue Lihong said nothing and asked everyone to move these first.

Yuan Yuan almost cried with joy. Only women know how important these seemingly inconspicuous hygiene products are to them. This thing is really annoying when you use it, and you will want to cry without it. Although traditional menstrual belts can be sewn from cloth, they are uncomfortable to use and more troublesome to wash.

The back cabin of the car and the door of the warehouse were opened directly. Xiao Mo stood in the car and was responsible for receiving and organizing. Packs of sanitary products were passed onto the car and put away.

With such a large amount, there are only four women including the family members of the team and Yuan Yuan. Regardless of the shelf life, it is enough for them to last for several years.

Then there are household appliances and skin care products, shampoo, body wash, soap... These are less damaged. People put them all in shopping carts and push them to the car regardless of the brand.

Cheng Zai also said with a smile: "We will pass by the airport on the way, do you want to go to the airport? There are many world-famous brand stores there, and there are more good things than here, especially skin care products, as well as brand-name tobacco and alcohol. These are all It’s hard currency when trading.”

Yuan Yuan was moved, but she would never ask for it.

Xue Lihong actually said that she could consider it, "if it's my way."

Xiao Mo thought of Xue Lihong's behavior when he took some medicine at the beginning of the troubled times and he followed behind to pay. Thinking about it now, he couldn't help but laugh.

It's not Qiaoqing, but he would really rather pay to buy things than move a lot of goods for free. Because the former represents the stability of social order and a safe and stable life, while the latter seems to be free but has to be exchanged for life.

"What are you laughing at?" Xue Lihong asked him.

Xiao Mo pushed him away, "Nothing." Then he raised his voice to remind everyone: "Everyone, don't forget to take stationery and some household items. They can be used to decorate your rooms and homes in Zhongshan City Base. You can also take the extra ones. Trading in the market.”

"Oh!" The two children were ordered and ran to look through the stationery, but they all came back in boxes.

Xue Lihong came back in a circle and handed the boxes of condoms she had picked up from nowhere to Xiao Mo, complaining slightly: "There is no size suitable for me. The largest size here is only L."

Xiao Mo: "..."

Before leaving, Xue Lihong fired back: "But I don't like to feel you through things either."

Xiao Mo raised his hands and surrendered: Master! you win!

Three hours later - this is because the base vehicle can follow at any time, which saves everyone a lot of time in transporting back and forth. Except for Xue Lihong, even Xiao Mo is a little out of breath from exhaustion. The things on the shelves on the second floor are finally almost moved, and even All the electrical appliances were evacuated, because Mr. Xue said that the space was large enough and there was no need to save. If you didn’t need it, you could just drag it back and trade with the base.

Xiao Mo originally wanted to leave some for future generations, but Xue Lihong said coolly: "Do you think Zhang Hua still expects to come here a second time? When he goes back, as long as he is sure that most of the angels here have been wiped out, the H City Base will definitely Send a large number of manpower to evacuate this town before the new angels occupy it. If you leave things here now, you are helping Zhang Hua’s enemies."

Xiao Mo was persuaded, and everyone drove to the warehouse on the second floor. The stronger smell of chemicals inside made the mutated rats dislike it, which made the warehouse on the second floor well-preserved.

The situation on the third floor is worse than the second floor, but much better than the first floor.

Packs of bedding, four-piece sets, various quilts, pillows, mattresses... These are also urgently needed items for everyone, and they are very happy to move.

Classmate Wu Xiaoyuan also particularly took a fancy to a trampoline. He dragged the bed to the back door of the car and looked up at Xiao Mo.

Xiao Mo was defeated by those cute big eyes and was about to think of ways to dismantle the bed and put it in.

Xue Lihong came over and looked down at the child: "You want it?"

The child was naturally afraid of Xue Lihong, so he shrank and nodded hesitantly.

"You can do it if you want, but everyone is busy and don't have time to help you dismantle it. You need to disassemble and assemble it yourself, and take it to your own room and install it yourself. Whatever you want in the future, you must try to do it yourself, and You must explain it to me and the captain in advance and obtain our permission. Understand?"

The child stood up straight.

Lin Xiaofei, who was looking at the remote control car nearby, jumped over and said, "Xiao Yuan, let me help you dismantle it."

Two children were tossing around on a trampoline. Yuan Yuan wanted to help her son, but Xue Lihong glanced at her coldly and was immediately frozen in place.

However, this also made her chaotic brain a little clearer, and she realized: She thought she still treated her son the same as before, but in fact it was not the case. She became afraid of rejecting her son and wanted to let him get whatever he wanted. And such ideas and practices are obviously very dangerous!

"Thank you." Yuan Yuan hurriedly took two steps and thanked Xue Lihong in a low voice.

Xue Lihong saw that she understood what she meant, and saw that she was more pleasing to the eye than before. Although his boss likes to rescue people randomly, the unexpected characters he rescues are good.

Xue Lihong looked at Xiao Mo's back and suddenly smiled strangely. Cheng Zai's mother Chang E was also rescued by Xiao Mo, but Xiao Mo never mentioned letting Chang E join the team. Why

After everyone ransacked the warehouse on the third floor, they finally went back downstairs to the food warehouse on the basement floor.

There were a lot of mutated rats falling at the entrance of the underground warehouse.

After cleaning up the mutant rats, he opened the warehouse door and saw a warehouse full of goods and various sundries dragged by the mutant rats.

Xiao Mo was surprised, "The mutant rat regarded this as one of its nests?"

"Yes. There are a lot of things here. Instead of dragging them into the ground, it's better to use this place as a nest. It seems that these rats have also robbed other shops nearby. We Xiaofei's seeds don't have to worry about it." Xue Lihong's eyes were sharp and she saw it Small packaging bags were scattered on the floor by the door.

Well, because of the ultra-high-frequency ultrasonic weapons, what should have been a difficult treasure hunt for killing rats has turned into a happy tour of free moving goods in the supermarket.

The mutant rats' hard work and habit of hoarding winter food also allow them to find most of what they want here without having to search from store to store.

"As a thank you, as long as the remaining mutant rats in this town don't attack us, we won't kill them." Mr. Xue waved his hand in kindness, "Why are you still standing there? Receive the goods!"
