[Hunter] How to kill a zombie

What's not right, where is it?

It felt like something was out of place.

A group of people began to check the passing villages one by one along the coastline. Xiaojie and Qiya were very motivated, always rushing out one step ahead.The girl accompanying the translator and tour guide rode to Zoe and said with emotion: "The two hunters are so young."

Yes, very young.Zoe echoed, generally children of this age are still in school.

"Going to school...? Ah, yes, that's true... if you're outside."

"Huh?" Zooey looked at the translation lady with braids. She looked like she was only in her teens, and theoretically she should be in school. "Speaking of which, why are you here as a tour guide?"

"Me? Hey, I'm here to be a volunteer."

"Are you from outside?"

She nodded.

"Why do you want to come here?"

"Because... I am looking forward to the life philosophy here." The translation lady said, looking at the golden fields in front of her and the sea in the distance.The waves of wheat echoed the waves of the sea, and the humid sea breeze blew through her hair with the fragrance of wheat. "Get away from the outside world and live a purer life."

Pure life?What is pure life?Although Zoe was puzzled, for a moment she seemed to see this country called NGL through the eyes of the people around her.Working at sunrise and resting at sunset, people here repeat a simple life.You don't need to study financial or political systems, and you don't need to recite poems left by predecessors.The burden of history and society is laid down here, and people pay attention to the soil, whether it is wet or dry, a seed from germination to fruition, the real life, and the things they need to experience.

What's wrong with that?Zoe thought that human civilization might decline one day, and there might be no point in rushing to learn it, preserve it, and develop it.A life of simple joys—she could see the charm.If it is really "happy".

Zoe once again looked at the two tour guides beside her with probing eyes.

Their pupils were pale, their smiles were more intoxicated than friendly, and they were not in a natural state.

"Did you find out?" Kate's voice suddenly rang in Zooey's ears, the warm breath mixed with the warm sea breeze brushed against her ears and cheeks, and the Eudemons Hunter's long hair also bent down. His movements brushed her neck, which distracted her a bit, "It is rumored that NGL is the birthplace of a new type of hallucinogen - DD, and these two may also suffer from it."

"That's it." Zooey commented indifferently.Escaping into the idyllic life they yearn for—after all, they are still fleeing from one fantasy to another. Maybe not all residents will be addicted to drugs, but the closer people are to the authority, the more likely they will become the target group.

Zooey didn't pay much attention, but when she looked back at Kate, he was still staring at her with that strange look.She couldn't help being curious and asked, "What's wrong? Is there anything on me?"

"No... nothing," Kate said. "It's hot today."

"Huh? Ah... yes, it's quite hot." Kate's unreasonable words made Zooey stunned, but she still echoed her response.

"Maybe it's because of this..." The slender, taciturn hunter looked up at the sea of ​​trees in the distance.Zooey looked at him suspiciously, following his gaze, a flock of white birds suddenly flew out of the bushes in the distance.

At this time, she still didn't know what Kate's words meant, and what he noticed.

At this moment, a buzzing bee flew in front of them, and upon closer inspection, it had a note on it.

Kate reached for the note, unfolded it, and read it.

There are maps drawn on it, and key locations marked.

This is a distress signal.

虫群

"The situation is critical, do you want to go together?" Kate turned to them.

"Of course!"

"We are also professional hunters."

The two children answered very quickly. Kate smiled, turned her gaze to Zoe, then looked at the lady translator and said, "Miss translator, I'm very sorry, we are in a hurry."

"No problem," the translator said with a smile, "the horse can run a little faster."

"Riding is too slow."

"Eh?"

Kate said to the rest of the team: "You go back to the country to meet other people first, and then contact the association! Tell them that the highest level of dangerous creatures is found here."

"learn!"

"And you..." Saying that, Kate looked at Zooey again, "You should be with them too."

He meant to ask her to go back to the border and contact the association together.This is also a natural choice, after all, it is impossible for her to keep up with their pace.Even bringing her along would only drag things down.So Zoe nodded and said, "Okay." Then she watched the three of them leave.

"Then let's go back too!" Dina greeted quite relaxedly, and the lady translator also said that she would go back with them. "There's another batch of guests to entertain," she said.So a group of three people, plus the two tour guides of NGL, a total of five people, started to go back home, walking along the direction of the coastline.

Judging from Kate's reaction, it should be a fairly urgent situation.But the warm wind by the sea is still there, and so is the salty and humid sea water.The passing villagers showed full and satisfied smiles. She thought they should be simply satisfied with the fun of farming, rather than some artificial chemical preparations.They don't seem to be afraid of "dangerous creatures," and humans aren't the only species with a say here.At least for the moment.

I don't know what kind of situation Kate and Little Jackie will encounter?Can they return safely?

Seeming to see Zoe's worry, Dina smiled at her, and began to talk about going out with Kate to investigate the ecology.Kate always comes back safely, he said, back to us.Xiaojie and Qiya are also very strong, they are the most talented teenagers he has ever seen, and they must be fine.

They went far inland, through a swamp.This is the road that has not been taken when we came.The lady translator said that this is a shortcut, which is closer than walking along the coastline, and it only takes about ten minutes to return to the border.This is a space of light, where grass grows in the water, and the water flows to the distance, winding between the crevices of the canyon with the shadow of the sun.White waterfowl are perched on the edge of the mud, and the sound of horseshoes is stepping on a sleepy rhythm.Gadflies flutter, like floating snowflakes in bunches of light spots.This is an undisturbed land that has not been forcibly twisted into what it does not want to be.Life settles down here, the environment is equal to them, any species can come here, and then say, this will be my home in the future.But people are going to stop... to control, it's a race balance, she thought, because there are so many people out there.In the world outside, people occupy the heights, are the masters, that is the human world.

The horseshoes were stepping, and an egret suddenly flew up from the water's edge.The egret was still some distance away from them, but fled away in a hurry as if awakened.Zooey thought of what Kate said just now, and the group of birds that rose back to the sky like falling white clouds.

Something is wrong.

She looked up warily.

A cloud of gray gathered from a distance, like a thunderstorm cloud that was buzzing and tumbling.Vibrating wing feathers may belong to hundreds of species... insects, birds, bats' membranous wings.The swarm of lead gray insects covered the pale sunlight, and the clear wetlands were dyed dark blue, like a sudden rainstorm in midsummer, covering the sky for a while, as if the night had come suddenly.Looking carefully, those flapping wings are at least one meter long. They are not ordinary insects or birds—they have the heads of flying insects and beasts, and their limbs are slender like humans, but the joints retain the traces of arthropods.

It's a chimeric ant.

Armies of chimeric ants flitted overhead, each grabbing a pained-looking human by its feet.Everything is very clear.At that moment, Zooey suddenly had an absurd urge to laugh.Humanity has completely lost in this battle, and it has suffered a crushing defeat.The positions of the worms are reversed.

"This is...?!" Miss Translator and several people in the same company also noticed the abnormality. When they looked up, the shock on their faces was beyond words.This is the reaction of any normal person seeing such a weird picture, and Zooey doesn't know why she feels like laughing.

"Let's go!" Dina urged, but it was too late. A chimeric ant headed by them discovered their existence, and a small team separated from the mighty team and flew towards them.

20 meters, ten meters, their speed is faster than expected.The sound of horses neighing awakened more sleeping animals in the wetlands. The strong hoofs of the horses stepped on the soil saturated with rainwater, and the accumulated water by the lake splashed into the air.They are running at full speed.This is a race to the death. Leading the way, the NGL's two guides have accelerated the animals below them as fast as they may have ever run before.Running, as if speed is life, the splashing water reflected the killer who was chasing behind them——Run!run!Someone shouted, they were on horseback, looking forward anxiously, the front may be the way out...

Eight meters, five meters... The chimeric ant was getting closer and closer, and Zoe stopped her horse suddenly. For a while, the people in front didn't notice that she was falling behind, and Dina called her name loudly.

She turned around and smiled at them.She wants to say, it's okay
