Screaming Cycle

As dusk approached, the group finally passed through a large luxuriant mountain forest and came to the sunset town shown on the map.

If the city of ashes that Ji Tuan experienced half a month ago was weird, then this sunset town can only be described as tragic.

The whole town is in a mess, visible to the naked eye, and there are traces of violence and destruction everywhere.

The town is like breaking into a large group of stimulant wild boars. The doors, windows and even walls of many wooden buildings have been damaged. Whether in houses or on the street, it is like a typhoon passing by, and stains of blood can be found everywhere. .

However, there are no corpses.

They took advantage of the sky to turn around the town before it was completely dark.

"There are no living people, and no corpses."

In the bedroom of a two-storey villa on the corner of the street, the fat yellow man with the lid of the pot pointed at the blood on a bed, shrugged, and turned to look at his captain, "What do you think does this mean?"

The red-haired beauty touched her chin, and looked around the messy room carefully.

The window of this room has a big hole in the wall, judging from the size of the hole, it is enough for a brown bear to come and go freely.

The bedside table and dressing table in the room were all overturned on the floor, and there was a large pool of dried blood on the mattress and carpet. The shocking amount of bleeding alone can make a judgment even for people with little medical knowledge-80% of the injured are Can't live.

"Look there."

Rose lifted her chin toward the hole in the wall, "The foot of the bed and the window sill are both scratched by claws, and the blood stains extend from the room to the outside. It seems that the body should have been dragged away by something. "

When everyone heard the words, they all raised their heads reflexively and looked out following her instructions.

Sure enough, I saw a long bloodstain extending from the hole in the wall to the back garden of the house.

The owner of this house is a lover of flowers and plants. The backyard grass and trees support su, and the luxuriant flowers and trees scattered high and low extend to the outside of the wall, almost indistinguishable from the mountains and forests farther away.

The red-haired beauty came to a conclusion, "I guess the ‘murderer’ hid in the woods with the corpse."

"alright."

An indigenous soldier belonging to the "world" came in from the door and just heard the words of their captain, so he squeezed into the room with a gun, and followed the blood stains all the way out, "Let me see what the beast is like. It's so fierce that it can even take away all the people in the town..."

"return!"

Rose stopped drinking, "It's late, do you still want to explore the jungle at night!?"

The special soldier who had just touched the edge of the yard stopped, not daring to disobey the leadership, so he could only turn his head in anguish.

Unlike the unidentified soldiers, one of the participants was counted as one, but all of them had watched the trailer. Naturally, they knew that the wild animals such as wild boars or bears were not the wild animals that wandered around in Sunset Town. Some terrifying monsters whose prototypes are not visible at all.

Although now that we have come to town, it is only a matter of time before we meet those gadgets, but every participant does not intend to provocation the monsters who have not yet appeared, especially when they ask themselves if they have not yet appeared. When you are fully prepared.

"Everyone, come and see this."

Ji Shu's voice suddenly came from another room.

Rose led her team to the study next door, and saw a curly-haired baby-faced and muscular handsome man standing next to an armchair, while the ugly long-haired man was squatting next to the desk, bending over and stretching out his hand. Pick up something from the ground.

"what happened?"

The study was a bit narrow and couldn't stand all the participants. The red-haired beauty lined up a few teammates and squeezed to Ji Shun's side.

Ren Jian, who was squatting on the ground, stood up and handed something to Rose.

The red-haired female officer took it and found that it was a gray-black rock half the size of a palm. The tentacles were hard and cold, and the edges were uneven. The entire rock had obvious curvatures and uneven thickness. The thickest part was about There are two or three centimeters, but only a few millimeters at the thinnest point.

"What is this?"

She asked questioningly.

"do not know."

Ji Shu pointed towards the armchair, "There are many more here."

Actually, he doesn’t need to point it out. Rose has noticed that the desks, chairs, and carpets in the study are full of large and small gray-black gravel like this. The largest ones are about the same as her palms, and the smallest ones are smaller than hers. The fingernails are even smaller.

"...This looks like a broken earthenware, right?"

The red-haired beauty turned her head to look at Ji Lu and the others, "Is this related to our current situation?"

Ji Shu shook his head honestly, "I don't know."

As he said, he showed the watch on his wrist to Rose, "However, the hands on our watch have turned white..."

"Fuck!"

Rose scolded with anger, then dropped the black gravel that didn't know what it was originally, turned her head and walked out of the room hurriedly, and shouted as she walked:

"Everyone has it, don't dawdle!"

She was very anxious, "Look for a safe overnight place nearby!"

Just kidding, the color of the hands of the watch has changed from green to white, which means that the "safe time" of the participants has passed, and they may encounter some sudden dangers at any time.

Rather than looking for clues aimlessly in the town, the red-haired beauties felt that their top priority should be to find a place as safe as possible to settle down first, so as to survive tonight.

&&&&&&&&&

Most of the buildings in the town are made of wood, which is very shaky at first glance, which makes people feel particularly insecure.

From the map, only the northernmost church and a small clinic in the west of the town are of brick and tile structure.

Without even thinking about it, Rose decided to use the clinic as a base for the night.

However, when a group of them rushed to the small clinic before the sun went down, they did not feel any comfort.

This two-story clinic was even messier than most of the rooms they had checked.

The windows on the first floor are almost all broken, the tables and chairs are tossed down, the furnishings in the house are messy, broken glass, broken wood, and all kinds of shreds are mixed together, and you can step on crunching debris every step of the way. .

The door panel of the front door was almost destroyed, the upper part of the hinge was broken, and only half of it was able to sustain it.

Everyone can tell that spending the night in such a house has nothing to do with "safety" or "safety".

But now the entire town’s buildings have been ruined by unknown monsters, and everyone here can’t even find a single survivor. It can at least prove that there is no so-called "safe zone" in this place, so no matter what they are at night It doesn’t really make much difference where you plan to stay.

"The first rule of survival for horror films is absolutely not allowed to be placed alone!"

Rose gathered everyone in the front hall of the clinic and gave an order:

"Before dawn, form a team, no matter what you do, make sure you have at least two companions by your side!"

Most of the ten indigenous soldiers laughed.

They all appreciate their boss's sense of humor and think her metaphor is particularly vivid.

But obviously, because they have powerful weapons in their hands, these people are so confident that they don't treat this command as a thing at all.

Only a few participants knew that what Rose said was indeed the truth that would keep them alive.

The space inside the small clinic is not large, and it is impossible to bring everyone together.

So everyone found a few relatively intact rooms in the northeast corner of the second floor, in groups of three to five, taking turns to watch the night.

Ji Lu, Ren Jianmo and Mo Tiangen naturally lived in the same room.

The red-haired beauty took two guns full of magazines from the soldier’s spare equipment, and threw them to Ji Shu and Ren Jianmo, who were not equipped with guns, and said, “Assemble tomorrow at six o’clock. I’ll be next door. ."

She paused, and added: "However, the premise is that we can all live to tomorrow without incident."

Ji Yu thought to himself, this is another person who likes the crow's mouth to set up a FLAG for his own people, but he still thanked the other party for giving them guns specially.

After Rose left, Ji Shun closed the door, and then reached out and touched the wall by the door.

He touched the light switch and pressed it.

The circular ceiling light in the room flickered twice and lit up.

"call!"

Ji Yu breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, there was no power outage."

After speaking, he took a Swiss army knife from his pocket, walked half a circle around the foot of the wall, found a white square floor socket, then sat on the floor, and immediately began to pry the socket's PC cover.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Teacher Dagen was puzzled by the behavior of Ji Xiaoniao.

With a look of lovelessness, Ji Tuan answered dryly: "Charge."

Mo Tiangen: "???"

Ji Yu opened the socket with unskilled movements, revealing the copper piece inside, then took a deep breath, raised his right hand, stretched out **** like a fork, and was about to poke towards the copper piece.

Mo Tiangen: "!!!"

He was a little far away, and it took at least two steps to get to the other side. Seeing that it was too late to stop the suicidal behavior of classmate Ji Xiaoniao, Ji Xuan's fingers stopped before they touched the copper sheet.

"Hey……"

Ji Xuan raised his head and looked at Ren Jianmo pitifully, "This...this voltage should be 220 volts, right? Isn't it the standard voltage?"

That voice, it sounds like hesitated and hesitated.

Ren Jian tilted his head silently, and replied very perfunctorily: "Probably."

Ji Shu: "..."

——I'm so angry, but keep smiling!

Mo Tiangen on the side finally understood: "So, this is your ability?"

"To be precise," Ji Yu continued to die, "This is the preparatory preparation for my ability."

After speaking, he took another deep breath, summoned his courage, raised his fingers, and poked at the metal piece.

——Anyway, if you get an electric shock, they won't die!

——If the rescue is in time, it shouldn’t die... right?

The skin of the fingertips touched the copper flakes, and a tingling itch was passed over before the coldness of the metal.

It's just that the feeling of the current flowing into the body is not as painful as imagined.

He felt that what he was touching was not a piece of electrified metal with a voltage that could cause death, but a young, furry hedgehog covered with spines.

——Thank God, thank Gods and Buddhas, this is indeed the standard voltage!

Although I know that this is my own power, I can only use it in the "world" and I can't get familiar with it in Taohuayuan in advance. Therefore, Ji Yuan is also the first time the big girl goes to the sedan chair. Not only is he inexperienced, but also very emotional. No bottom.

The ability triggered by Ji Shu is called "Ordinary Power Bank", and it is really a "power bank".

He can store electrical energy in his body and release it when necessary.

Although this ability sounds like a low profile yellow-haired electric mouse, it seems pretty handsome, but it's actually not the case at all.

First of all, when he is charging, he must use his skin to directly touch live objects, such as wires, sockets or other similar things, with his skin, and the chargeable voltage is also limited to the standard civilian 110 volts or 220 volts.

In other words, if Ji Xiaoniao dared to catch the high-voltage line with his bare hands, he would still become a roasted bird on the spot.

What's even more cheating is that the electricity he stores in his body, whether used or not, will gradually be depleted over time.

In other words, if you want to charge the battery in "World A" and leave it to "World B", you can use this shortcut without even thinking about it-if you want to be a supernatural person, Ji Lu can only be like now. , Every time I find a place to fully charge the battery.

"Wa, what kind of broken power is yours? It's too much trouble! If you encounter a ‘world’ with a medieval background, wouldn’t it be completely abolished!"

After listening to Ji Tuan's explanation, Mr. Dagen felt that it was both coke and helpless.

"Also, how long will it take for your battery to be fully charged? I think you have been poking this two-finger Zen for ten minutes, right?"

Ji Lu said that he was so tired that he didn't want to say anything:

"Judging from the current progress, it will take a few more hours..."

"Okay, then you stay here and charge it first."

Mo Tiangen rolled his eyes, lost interest in his stupid ability, and turned his head unrighteously, "I'll go to rest for a while, and when you finish rushing to wake me up, I will continue to watch the night."

In view of Mr. Dagen's performance in the last "world", Ji Lu actually didn't hold any hope for his "night watch" and waved his hand to let him go.

He cats at the foot of the wall, pulling with one hand his hair that has become a ball because of static electricity. While waiting for the battery to be fully charged, he ponders what Mo Tiangen said just now.

Indeed, Mr. Dagen made sense.

In the previous preparation period of more than ten days, he did some homework, knowing that the era background of each "world" is not fixed. Perhaps this time it is a modern city with one smartphone, and next time it will become a primitive tribe whose communication basically depends on howling.

Not to mention the “world” without electricity, even if it’s a little troublesome to charge, his powers will be abolished directly, which is really frustrating.

But now it's too late to say anything.

Supernatural powers are not easy to inspire, and many people still ask for it before they get it!

Moreover, once the abilities in the body are activated, unless there is an incredible chance, it cannot be easily changed, and it is also difficult to have more than one abilities at the same time...

——So, what can I say? Make do with it!

Ji Xiaoniao can only comfort himself like this.
