Data Wasteland

Digging open the corridor hidden under the concrete block, a musty smell came.

"Excavate that side too, ventilate first, and then go down tomorrow." Chen Xing said.

The big cat ran over, digging down one by one. Until nine o'clock in the evening, the two dug a few vents. The air below began to flow, gushing out the smell of old and rotten. Then the two men found a higher position to eat and rest.

In the afternoon of the next day, the musty smell gradually faded. The two followed the gravel-filled stairs and entered the underground city.

The beams of the two flashlights swayed back and forth, and rows of vending machines came into view. The Ying people are one of the yellow races, and they have different customs and habits from the eastern mainland. Their urban population density is extremely high, and the per capita living area is less than eight square meters, and they are used to living in small spaces. Therefore, they also love cleanliness very much. In order to make reasonable use of space, even in public places, things are arranged in an orderly manner.

Even today, the underground city is still clean and tidy.

"Kang-bang-bang!"

Big cat pushed the vending machine a few times, and a can of aluminum beverage rolled out. It is covered with mildew, but the packaging is still complete.

"For so many years, I don't know if I can drink it." Big Cat muttered to himself, wiped it with his clothes, and opened the tab of the jar. Only a "chirp" sound was heard, and a faint fruit smell permeated.

"Gudong..." The big cat took a sip, "Hmm!" He was surprised, "The taste is okay, would you like a can?"

Chen Xing shook his head. He really didn't dare to import things from hundreds of years ago.

Looking left and right, it looks like a makeshift lounge, with stainless steel benches in the corners, rusty on them. Because of the lack of ventilation, everything has not completely corroded.

At the end of the lounge is an iron door. Looking out from the window, there is a long walkway outside. Most of the underground buildings are hollow, and here is the same, with shops on one side and patios on the other.

In the darkness, a solid beam of light shot down from above. The patio has been covered by the collapsed building, which is the vent they dug out. It is noon and there is still sunlight above.

"Crunch..."

The two pushed open the door together, perhaps due to the noise, a large number of living corpses gushing out of the shop next to the aisle, rushing towards this side. Taking advantage of the geographical advantage, they blocked the door and shot, and cleared out the living corpses.

Along the passage, there are sushi restaurants, ramen shops, cake shops, snack shops, clothing shops...

It seems to be an underground commercial street, and the decoration of the store is in line with Yingren's usual style, exquisite, compact, neat and orderly.

Big cat went in every shop to search, but all came back empty-handed and didn't find anything valuable. However, he found a rolling pin that was more than one meter long in the ramen shop and waved it twice, seeming to be very handy.

Chen Xing's flashlight swayed back and forth, trying to find a store with valuables.

As I walked, the beam of the flashlight suddenly stopped on a shop across the building. Although the sign was old and black, Chen Xing still recognized the Yingren text on it.

Selling gold house!

Literally, it is the place where jewelry is sold. Chen Xing immediately looked around, looking for the way to the past. Underground buildings are usually in the shape of "Hui", with a lighted patio in the middle, houses around them, and a circle of corridors on each floor.

Standing by the guardrail and looking down, the patio was dark and the light could not reach the bottom. I don't know how deep it was.

The location of the gold shop is on the lower two floors, so go down the stairs. After walking for a while, the corridor collapsed and couldn't make it through. The two had to go back and go around from the other side. But when I got there, I found that the stairs had collapsed and I could only jump down.

"Should I look for materials and build a ladder?" Big Cat asked. Just make a long ladder and you can go up and down.

"It's too much trouble." Chen Xing said, jumping directly to the next floor at the cave-in.

"How can I come up later?" Big Cat asked with some worry, not daring to go down. He is fatter, not as flexible as Chen Xing

, I can't get up when I go down.

"Just push a beverage machine over here." Chen Xing pointed to the vending machines everywhere and said.

The big cat jumped down and made a "boom" when it landed, and it spread far away. He weighed more than one hundred and fifty, and his movements were not comparable to ordinary people, so all the living corpses in the shop were drawn out.

It's another battle between humans and corpses. The gunfire attracted more living corpses, and the two of them shot out more than a dozen boxes of bullets, and finally killed all the corpses.

"It's time to save it. The bullet is almost half used." Big Cat said.

The two stopped to count. There were 22 boxes of 5.56mm rifle ammunition, 91 rounds of 7.62mm rifle ammunition, 136 rounds of 9mm pistol ammunition, and Silver Star's 12.7mm pistol. 67 rounds were flicked.

"Use cold weapons." Chen Xing put away the gun and carried the sheath knife on his waist. The big cat has a rolling pin in one hand and a Mitsubishi thorn in the other.

However, most of the living corpses were brought over, and only a few sporadic ones were left, all of which were head convulsed by the big cat.

After a while, the two finally came to the gate of Jindian and broke in. A living corpse rushed up from behind the door, Chen Xing raised the knife and dropped his head, flying out.

The flashlight shines, and it's golden in the cupboard. Even after a long time, gold still exudes a seductive luster.

"Good fellow!" The big cat smashed the glass of the cabinet with a few crackles, holding his rolling pin. Then, like a robber, grabbed a lot of gold jewelry and stuffed it into the parcel.

Chen Xing walked directly into the back room, rummaged through the boxes and found the safe behind the chest of drawers. Every gold store has this thing, and the most valuable are in it.

After Big Cat cleaned up the gold ornaments outside, Chen Xing took out C and 4 explosives and installed them.

"Will there be too much movement?" Big Cat asked.

Chen Xing thought for a while and said, "You go up first, ready to run at any time." It is very empty here, and the sound of the explosion will spread far away. God knows what monsters will be attracted. It is better to prepare for evacuation first. The big cat's agility is low, and he runs slowly, but he doesn't care, he can run after finishing his things.

Not long after, Big Cat returned to the upper floor and signaled him with a flashlight.

Chen Xing turned his head and pressed down the detonator. With a "boom", doors and windows shattered, and a large amount of smoke rushed out of the store. A huge sound echoed in my ears and spread towards the bottom of the patio. Chen Xing clutched his nose, rushed into the store, and walked to the back room in the dark. Smoke and dust billowed in the room, making it impossible to see. Chen Xing was about to go out and wait for the smoke to dissipate before entering, but at this moment, a beast roar came from below.

The roar was thunderous, shaking people's hearts, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys. Chen Xing's face changed suddenly, and he quickly touched the edge of the safe. The safe that has just been blasted is extremely hot, and if someone is replaced, I'm afraid it will already be burned. Chen Xing was not afraid of the high temperature, so he touched into the safe with both hands, and no matter what it was, he stuffed it into his backpack.

After stuffing things, Chen Xing picked up the package and touched it outside. There was a crackling sound from below, like a broad palm slapped against the wall. It seemed that something was climbing up, and Chen Xing was nervous and rushed towards the path.

The flashlight on the opposite side turns on and goes out, alternating light and dark, sending him a danger signal. Chen Xing's feet were like wind, and within ten seconds he ran up to the second floor and ran towards the cave-in. Big cat has pushed the beverage machine below and can directly climb to the first floor.

But when he rushed halfway, his eyes suddenly flashed, and a huge black shadow rushed up from below. The forelegs pulled the floor slabs, and the bricks and glass smashed down.

Seeing fixedly, a humanoid creature climbed on the floor. The limbs are sturdy, the back is arched, and the claws are big and pointed, sinking deeply into the floor.

crawler!

Chen Xing was taken aback.

In the long years, some living corpses have undergone "secondary mutation." They begin to feel hungry for their kind and devour them in large quantities, which scholars call "hungry corpses".

In the process of devouring the same kind, the hungry corpse will grow larger and larger, and then evolve into a "xuan corpse" with copper skin and iron bones, or a fat and bloated "Poison King", or agile and agile "crawler" ".

Even the lowest-level giant living corpse has the strength of a quasi-guard level.

The creeper twisted his thick neck and made a "chuckling" sound. His eyes are like big red lanterns in the dark night, emitting a gloomy red light. At the moment his eyes met, Chen Xing's scalp exploded and he turned and ran.

The wind blew up behind him, and Chen Xing looked back subconsciously. I saw the creeper kicked his legs and rushed to the floor in front of him, and the bricks and glass fell like a waterfall.

Seeing that there is no way forward and no way to retreat, Chen Xing put his heart in a hurry, picked up the "Ye Xiao", pulled the bolt up, and condensed Xingsha. The lines inside the barrel are brighter one by one. The creeper seemed to feel something and raised his paw and patted it. Chen Xing rolled back and stood steadily. The corridor in front collapsed like tofu blocks and fell into the bottomless darkness. He remained motionless, aiming at the huge living corpse.

The living corpse raised its paws again, but Chen Xing's energy storage had not yet been completed.

"Silly big guy, here!"

At the moment of the moment, the voice of a big cat suddenly sounded from above.

The creeper was attracted by the sound, and then a shuttle was shot on its head. The creeper ate pain, roared furiously, his claws changed direction and slapped upward.

At this time, Chen Xing's energy storage has also entered the final stage. The creeper seemed to have a reaction, twisting his hideous head, and staring at the human underneath.

Trio, energy storage shooting!

The blue flame of the muzzle flashed, and the lantern-like eyes burst open.

"Wow!"

The creeper let out a deafening wailing, loosened his limbs and fell off the patio. Chen Xing succeeded in a blow, immediately put the gun on his back, rushed to the beverage machine in three or two steps, jumped up again, grabbed the floor, and climbed up.

Halfway through the climb, his body suddenly lightened, and a strong hand pulled him up. Just as he fought side by side countless times in the previous life, even if it was facing the abyssal demon that covered the sky, knowing that it was a mortal situation, the big cat would stand by his side, side by side with him until the last moment.

"fast!"

One after another, the two rushed into the lounge and ran up the stairs.

As soon as I got out of the ground, I hadn't adapted to the dazzling sunlight, and there was a "boom" behind me. Sand and stones bounced and soil poured out.

"Roar!"

The creeper's head rushed out of the ground, opened to the mouth of the blood basin on the cheek, and roared at the two. The slender tongue is scarlet as blood, and the teeth are sharp and sharp, like jagged teeth, shimmering in the sun.

Chen Xing made a decisive decision, and before the crawler's body came out, he pulled off the grip of the grenade and threw it into its mouth.

"Gudong!"

The creeper swallowed, then there was a muffled noise, his throat burst open, and blood spurted wildly. The hard-hit creeper struggled even harder, twisting his body frantically and pushing out of the ground.

"kill him!"

Chen Xing yelled, drew his pistol and blasted it at the creeper's one-eyed. The big cat also yelled and rushed up, shooting desperately. The lantern-like one-eyed eye was beaten to splattering blood, and it was broken into pieces. When the creeper crawled out of the ground completely, his eyes were already blind.

The two ran away separately, one shot from the other, and finally to the death of the seriously injured creeper.

"I made a fortune this time!"

After a while, Chen Xing shook a fist-sized crystal nucleus and said comfortably.

"Let's see how much gold there is." The big cat wiped the black blood from his hands and took out a big cloth bag.

"I still have it." Chen Xing poured out the contents of his backpack.

"This is..." "No way..."

Looking at the things on the ground, the two of them opened their eyes wide at the same time, as if they didn't believe what they saw.

It was a small cloth bag, and a few blue beads fell out of the mouth of the bag.

The surface is round and smooth, the color is mysterious and dark, deep and boundless, as if there is a strange magic power that can absorb the surrounding light.
