The drifting city of the last days

Luo Zhen was caught off guard, and only had time to protect the back of his head before hitting the wall, and took most of the impact force with his left arm.

The severe pain in his left arm made him groan, and a stream of air with an earthy smell immediately followed the sound, chasing after him as if to give him another fatal blow.

Before he had time to deal with the injured left shoulder, Luo Zhen stepped sideways and rolled towards the right at an angle of ten degrees on the spot.

"Bang!" A huge shadow like a crane hammer hit the position where Luo Zhen was just now, and the yellow-brown dust overflowed, and the whole emergency building seemed to tremble violently with the impact.A figure loomed behind the shadows.

Luo Zhen quietly groped from behind, and slashed at the back of the man's neck with a wave of his hand.He smelled an obvious earthy smell. There was no doubt that the mutant who attacked him was the natural mutant. The other party attacked him most likely because he was disturbed by the hallucinogenic effect of the mutant moth wing powder. He had to subdue the mutant first.

"Plop!" Luo Zhen succeeded with one blow, and the man immediately fell to the ground.

After getting rid of a few moths that took the opportunity to fly over and attack, Luo Zhen activated his ability to seal the room at the explosion point with a layer of ice, trapping the rest of the moths.Then, avoiding his injured left shoulder, he picked up the fainted one and carried it on the other side, and strode towards the stairs.I didn't hear any movement from Shao Yunfan and the others, and the machine should have been moved according to the time.

The smoke and dust in the stair area was already very light, and the steps and handrails could be seen clearly. Luo Zhen had just stepped down the last step when he heard the noise of people outside the emergency area. It seemed that someone was arguing!

He quickly took two steps, and as soon as he left the gate of the emergency area, he saw dozens of people blocking Shao Yunfan and the others at the entrance of the hospital, refusing to budge.

If you look carefully, there are old and young people in that group, but there are not many real young and middle-aged people.The leader was an old man in his 70s and [-]s, with a slightly arched back and deep wrinkles on his dark face.

"We really didn't bring any food, so it's useless for you to block the way." Wu Fei was so anxious that he jumped up and down, but resisted not making a move.Shao Yunfan said that these were ordinary people, and he really couldn't do anything about it.

Lan Shan, who had turned into a peach blossom tree, took the huge CT machine and hid at the end of the line, quietly looking at the sky.

"Take away the spiritual energy beads of those mutated moths upstairs." Luo Zhen walked under the tree and looked at Lanshan who pretended to be a real tree and planned to stay out of it.The peach blossom tree shook its branches and leaves, and countless branches and leaves stretched out from the ground quickly.

"That driveway was cleared out by us old bones. You have to pay energy coins or rations when you use it. This is the rule." The old man held a wooden cane in his hand and looked at them.

"What's going on?" Luo Zhen handed the person on his shoulders to Xia An, motioned Qi Liang to check on the person's condition first, and walked to Shao Yunfan and the Wu family brothers who were standing at the front.

"They have to say that they cleared the driveway into the city, and we have to pay for it, or they won't let us go. I don't know if what they say is true or not, but these are ordinary people who are old, weak, sick, and disabled. It's not good to start, so I'm stuck here." Shao Yunfan lowered his voice to Luo Zhen's ear, and simply recounted the matter, his breath brushed lightly or heavily, which made Luo Zhen feel a little distracted.

"They have a doctor!!!" There was a sharp-eyed person in the group who saw that Qi Liang and Lan Shan, who had turned back into a human form, were examining the people brought back by Luo Zhen, and immediately shouted loudly.

The old man standing at the front of the crowd immediately straightened up, and his cloudy eyes suddenly burst into light. He saw that Qi Liang and Lan Shan were really examining the man. Lan Shan's movements looked professional and neat, and he looked like a doctor. .Immediately knelt down with a "plop", "We don't want the travel expenses, please help us save someone!"

"Hey! Grandpa, get up first." Shao Yunfan quickly reached out to help the old man, the style of this painting has changed too fast!The one who was still not getting in in front of him suddenly knelt down.This old man is as old as his grandfather, how can they bear it.

As soon as the old man knelt, the people behind him knelt down immediately.Shao Yunfan and Wu Fei frantically went to help, pulled up one, and then knelt down that one again, the two of them were thrown around, unable to cope with such a scene at all.

"Within three seconds, if you don't all stand up, don't expect us to help you save people." Luo Zhen glanced at those people coldly.You know, if they were replaced by those in the No. [-] team, they might not even be able to save their lives.

"3, 2..." Luo Zhen crossed his arms, looked at them with a straight face, and began to count down word by word. The old man looked at the expressionless Luo Zhen hesitantly. Before the last number, Finally stood up with the people behind him.He could tell that Luo Zhen was the leader of this group of youths.

Shao Yunfan and Wu Fei breathed a sigh of relief. At the critical moment, it was the ice face that was able to calm down the situation.

"Tell me about the condition of the person you want to save." Luo Zhen still had a paralyzed face, showing no signs of softening.

"He's only 25 years old, it's not worth dying for our old bones." As if thinking of something sad, the old man sighed, with a mournful look on his dark face.

"Is he a mutant or an ordinary person? How did he get hurt?" Wu couldn't help interjecting, but decided it would be quicker to ask himself.At a time like this, who doesn't feel the pain of family ruin?Sensational is avoided, hurry up and explain the situation of that person clearly so that they can quickly judge whether they can help.

"Mutant. He is a mutant." The old man quickly replied, "The day before yesterday, in order to protect us old bones, a mutant bear broke his ribs, and the broken bone may have penetrated into his internal organs."

Luo Zhen turned to look at Qi Liang, the mutant's words shouldn't be a big problem, seeing him nodding, he asked the old man, "Where is he?"

"Three streets away, your car can drive through. We have cleared the road." The old man said happily.

"Some of your people have to walk back by themselves." After Luo Zhen finished speaking, he dragged Shao Yunfan to the side of the truck without looking back.After the CT machine is installed in the back of the truck, at most five or six people can be squeezed.

The old man sat in the driver's cab to guide Luo Zhen, while the others crowded into the back of the truck. The man Luo Zhen rescued had a steady heart rhythm and normal breathing, and was not in danger of life. He was temporarily placed on a ready-made bed for the CT machine.A few of the ordinary people who blocked the way squeezed up and talked about the mutant man to everyone on the Haihou along the way.

Most of those ordinary people were residents and staff of a nursing home, and some escaped in one after another.After the end of the world, although three mutants appeared among them one after another, in the end, those people abandoned them, the old, weak, sick and disabled, and fled alone, leaving only a group of them sticking to the activity room of the nursing home.

The mutant who needs to be treated is called Zuo Tian. When he first appeared, he was a huge black-backed wolf. Everyone in the activity room thought he was a mutant animal and was bound to die. They were scared out of their wits.However, not only did he not eat people, but he stayed to protect them and helped them repel those mutated animals again and again. He also knew that he looked scary, and often lay scarred and bruised in the shadows under the window sill, licking his wounds alone.Knowing that he was protecting everyone, the people in the activity room gradually became less afraid.With his own strength, he has struggled to protect most of the people in the activity room to survive to this day.Half a month ago, Zuo Tian suddenly glowed and turned into a human form, and they realized that the giant wolf that was facing them day and night was also a mutant.After the nursing home ran out of food, they could only rely on Zuo Tian to take people out to look for food every day to satisfy their hunger. Now that Zuo Tian was injured, they all mustered up their courage to come out together to find food and medicinal materials for him, so they went to the hospital.

Although Wu Shi didn't like the behavior of these people at the beginning, he found it very rare to hear Zuo Tian's behavior.Shao Yunfan leaned on the carriage and lowered his head silently. Some people are domineering by virtue of their mutation ability in the last days, and some people try their best to protect others. So when he and Qi Liang find their relatives, where are they going to go?It seems that they have never considered this issue.He closed his eyes, and in his field of vision, a red third-level spiritual energy bead was dotted about 150 meters away. The physique-type mutant had disappeared, but the animal-type mutant was still following them.

Zuo Tian maintained the shape of a giant wolf. His injuries were quite serious, and he was delayed so much that he had already fallen into a coma. Fortunately, he was a powerful animal mutant with a good physique, so he was able to support him until now.

After 5 minutes, Zuo Tian recovered as before.The group of ordinary people cheered excitedly, and the old man on crutches gave a soft knee, and was about to kneel down for Luo Zhen and the others again, but was supported by Shao Yunfan with sharp eyesight and quick hands.

Zuo Tian in human form looks like a silent and forbearing man with a handsome face and a little pale face.He didn't talk much. After realizing that it was Luo Zhen and the others who saved him, he just said concisely, "I don't want to thank you for your kindness. If there is something that needs my help in the future, it's okay to say it."

"What level of mutant are you?" Luo Zhen asked with interest, and after listening to the story told by Shao Yunfan, he also admired this person.

"Level [-]." Zuo Tian stretched out his hands to look, "I heard from people from Jinghua base that I am called a mutant animal."

"You made those modified monitors and power grids in the yard?" Luo Zhen remembered that what he saw when he came in just now, it didn't look like it was made by the original people in the nursing home.

"Yes, I used to be a mechanical engineer." Zuo Tian nodded briskly, "In a few days, I plan to go to the Third Academy to catch some mutated moths, and use their wing powder to try to make some hallucinogenic bombs."

Luo Zhen raised his eyebrows in astonishment. This person's mind is quite sharp. If it can be made, it would be a good self-defense weapon. "You can go there later to get it. I killed about seventy or eighty just now, and there are more Twenty or thirty were trapped alive in an ice room."

Zuo Tian's eyes widened, he obviously wanted to ask something, but in the end he didn't say anything due to his unfamiliarity.

"Forget me to sponsor your research. If it is successful, please reserve a few for us." Luo Zhen raised the corners of his lips, "In addition, the dozens of living ones will freeze to death at around six o'clock in the evening. There are energy beads in the moth's body, which can help you upgrade to the third level, remember not to waste them, absorb them all." Luo Zhen was not sure if he knew the exact way to upgrade yesterday, so he simply told him.There is nothing wrong with having friends with good natures.In the future, they might come to T city often to do missions.

Zuo Tian's pupils flashed with animal pupils, and the brilliance flickered. He nodded to Luo Zhen, "I owe you twice."

"Don't say what you owe, my name is Luo Zhen, and we will be brothers from now on." Luo Zhen introduced the people around him to Zuo Tian, ​​and learned about the situation of many mutants who stayed in T city. Then he drove away in a hurry, ready to go back to Li Ji's appointment.

"What are your plans? When we find my parents and Qi Liang's family, are we going to stay at Jinghua base?" Shao Yunfan asked Luo Zhen while sitting in the co-pilot, monitoring the nearby mutated animals and the tail behind them.

"It's good to be with you." Luo Zhen held the steering wheel with one hand, put his hand on the back of Shao Yunfan's neck, and rubbed the side of his neck with his fingertips vaguely.

"Don't make trouble, I'm telling you something serious." Shao Yunfan opened his eyes and stared at him, speaking righteously, why couldn't he talk properly when he was with him!

Luo Zhen sighed helplessly, what he said was obviously the truth, for him, it didn't matter where he stayed, even if it was hell, even if it was the end of the world, as long as he was with Shao Yunfan, he would be happy. "Looking at the current situation, we have only two options. First, stay in a relatively safe large base and exchange for the right of residence in the base by helping the base. Second, when we find someone, we will leave , just like the people in the fishing village I met at the beginning, find a place to be self-sufficient.”

"Wait, the person from the animal department is gone." Shao Yunfan just closed his eyes and then opened them again.

"Don't worry, what should come will always come." Luo Zhen looked at the black city wall of the Jinghua base that was faintly visible in the distance, and said firmly.

After entering the Jinghua base, Luo Zhen drove the car to the mission hall of the military area, and went directly to hand in the mission.

"Completed it in one day?" The people in the management office couldn't help being surprised when they heard that they had completed the task that day, and their voice was so loud that many mutants in the hall looked sideways.Immediately staring at Luo Zhen and Wu Shi who were standing in front of the window, they whispered to each other and talked a lot.

Luo Zhen's forehead twitched, and he held his temper, "It's on the truck outside, please send someone to pick it up quickly, and pay the remaining Neng coins by the way." He can still get 300 Neng coins today.

The man nodded and picked up the walkie-talkie immediately.After a while, two soldiers in uniform rushed to their truck.The two got into the car, and when they saw the person lying on the CT machine, they exclaimed, "Colonel Sun?"

Colonel Sun?Standing by the side, Luo Zhen frowned. The man he accidentally rescued had such a high rank?
