On the way back, I passed by L City, and none of the survivors who went on the road together wanted to stay there.After the initial chaos, the stalking of zombies, and being imprisoned in the ammunition depot for so long, almost all of them are alone.When they went that day, the last of the eight children was also orphaned.

According to those ogres, the children's meat is tender and delicious, and they want to fatten it up to satisfy their cravings.Those women were the tools they left behind to vent their desires. Their husbands and relatives had been slaughtered first. As for the five men, except for the two doctors Wang Fan and Mo Jie who were reluctant to kill them, the other three men It was kept for fattening, and I wanted to make bacon to take away.

Those three men were indeed raised very fat. After Liu Zhiqiang's treatment, their mental state improved a lot. Recently, they actively courted the guards of the mercenary regiment, dreaming of being able to stay.

In fact, these people's thoughts are not difficult to guess. It is nothing more than seeing the strength of the Black Claw Mercenary Group, and they want to hold on to this big tree; It can be imagined that the safety factor there is absolutely high. Even if you don't stay in the Black Claw Mercenary Corps, you will be more secure than those bases in L City in terms of making a living and personal safety there.

Lu Qian agreed to their request, but he couldn't take so many of them to City A in vain and provide them with free food, he has no such obligation.

"It's not impossible for you to follow us to City A, but the premise is that each person pays me 10 crystal cores, and whoever fails to hand over the crystal cores, then I can only say sorry. We will rest in the abyss base for a day, Before we set off the next morning, if you can't hand in the crystal nucleus, then you can keep it by yourself." Lu Qian said, while gently scratching the little chin of the cat, with a casual look, as if he didn't give them any attention at all. life and death in mind.

These people looked at each other but didn't dare to bargain with Lu Qian at all. If they only had a preliminary understanding of the strength of the Black Claw Mercenary Group when they were in the ammunition depot, now seeing the high-level flattery of the Abyss Base, they can't wait to give it to the guards. From the way they lifted their shoes, they understood that the Black Claw Mercenary Group was not someone they could curry favor with.

Up to now, almost all zombies have crystal nuclei in their heads.To collect 10 crystal nuclei, you have to kill 10 zombies.

Although the three men were fat and strong during the days of captivity, in fact, their blood and fighting spirit had been worn down during the long life of torture and captivity.Otherwise, how could they willingly accept the flesh and blood of the same kind?

Among the 8 women, 6 were timid. When they heard that there were so many crystal nuclei, they retreated immediately, and the two hungry and lean women clenched their fists instead.

Unexpectedly, among the 8 children, the youngest was only 7 years old, and the oldest was only 12 years old. They showed no fear at all. Even the youngest little boy had bright eyes, thinking that his chance had come.

In this group of children, all of them were little boys. Originally, there were quite a few little girls, but they were all tortured to death by Scar and others.Fortunately, the scars are only interested in women, and the little boys are often beaten and tortured by them, but they are not sexually assaulted.

During the process of captivity, these children witnessed their relatives being killed, and even ate their own relatives' flesh and blood. No one can understand the fear in their hearts.

Just a moment ago, they were still carrying small schoolbags every day, studying boring courses at school with their friends; in the blink of an eye, their relatives and friends turned into cannibal zombies, and their stable and carefree life became endless. Escape, imprisonment and beatings.Even, in the end, they themselves become cannibalistic monsters.

Day after day of torture, all the spiritual pillars in their hearts were wiped out.Then suddenly one day, people from the Black Claw Mercenary Group descended from the sky and rescued them from the devil's lair.Not only did they easily kill the invincible devil in their eyes, they also easily swept away the hell that even the devil feared.

The Sun Wukong, Transformers, Spiderman, etc. that were played on TV in the past, at this moment, none of the members of the Black Claw Mercenary Corps have a taller and mightier image in their hearts.

It is human nature to worship power and the strong. These children who have been tortured in the last days are more eager than anyone else to have great power and survive.

Li Jingwu looked at the youngest child, who couldn't even hold the steel pipe firmly, and followed his companions away excitedly crookedly, and couldn't help but worried: "Leader, just let them go out like this, isn't it afraid that something will happen to them?"

Lu Qian let go of the cat and waited for it to go out to play by itself, "Li Jingwu, do you know which kind of person has the hardest life in the last days?"

Li Jingwu thought for a while: "Old people." Young people can support themselves, and children can be taken care of by adults, but the elderly are often regarded as a burden by many people. In City A, there are many families who abandon their elderly, and these abandoned The old man really lived a very hard life.

"Wrong, they are little orphans." Lu Qian looked at the children's backs: "Young and middle-aged men and women, if they dare not take up the butcher's knife against zombies, they still have many ways to maintain their lives. Even if the elderly have no children to support them, But as long as they are not too old to walk, they can rely on decades of life experience to find a way out. Only these children, once they lose the protection of their parents, they will know nothing, have no survival skills, and no one will hire them. They, and no one will take care of them, if they want to survive, there is only one way, which is to be cruel to themselves.

Li Jingwu, few of your children can understand the end of the world. "

Li Jingwu mouthed cowardly, and finally lowered his head dejectedly.He had to admit that what Lu Qian said was right, he suddenly remembered that he had seen more dead children than old people.Liu Chuan, who was standing aside, also had a complicated expression.

Lu Qian looked at the two of them: "In the education you have received, the strong should shoulder the lives of the disadvantaged and be responsible for them. Such a concept is worthy of praise and admiration in a peaceful age. But this is the end of the world. This is a battle of survival of the fittest. In this battle of survival, if you position yourself as the weak from the beginning, then you are doomed to die. Similarly, there are no strong people in this world, there are only hard-working people. Those who try their best to survive.

If those people don't even have the guts to live, then why do they need to exist?

My words may be a bit extreme to you, but you can go and see those children, and you will understand. "

Li Jingwu and Liu Chuan quietly followed behind the children.

These children were traveling with two women, and they asked the guards to borrow a car in fear.Lu Qian greeted these personal guards before, and the personal guards not only borrowed a farm vehicle from them at the base, but also borrowed their portable zombie jammer, plus a gun and [-] rounds of ammunition.

Among the two women, there was a 30-year-old named Wang Qingqing who could drive and drove everyone to the field.

City L is full of plains, with a wide field of vision. They didn't walk very far, and there were often zombie hunters nearby, so zombies only appeared in twos and threes, not many.

At first, when they saw the zombies, they all turned pale with fright, and when they saw the zombies rushing towards them, they trembled all over their bodies.

The portable zombie jammer has a feature. If the zombies are far away, they will automatically go around when they receive the jamming signal; if they are close and smell the smell of the living, the effect of the jamming signal will be weakened. until it disappears.Therefore, the biggest function of the portable zombie jammer is not to avoid zombies completely, but to prevent zombies from gathering in large numbers and quickly.

Dragging his half-gnawed leg, the male zombie rushed over limply, his speed could catch up with ordinary people's trot.Before his two hands turned into zombies, they had been gnawed clean, and he could only grin his teeth, revealing a mouthful of yellow and black teeth, drooling, and hissing excitedly.

He was so focused on his food that he didn't notice the vines that popped out from under his feet at all. He tripped over the broken concrete road with a 'bang', and he didn't struggle for a long time like a turtle with its belly upturned.

Another woman named Ouyang Xue took a deep breath and jumped out of the car with a steel pipe that was sharpened at both ends. She quickly ran to the zombie and stabbed the steel pipe into the zombie's head with all her strength. The thick slurry splashed all over her.She was in a daze for a moment, but she quickly calmed down. She stepped on the zombie's back, shook the steel pipe vigorously, and directly pried open the zombie's head, picking out a crystal nucleus from the gray brain.

She wiped the stains on the crystal nucleus with the zombie's rotten clothes, and waved the crystal nucleus to the children in the car. The children almost jumped up in excitement, but they all shut their mouths tightly and did not let out any surprise. call.Because they have been warned many times by adults that zombies have very good ears, and if they hear the sound, they will not be able to run away.

In the wilderness, other zombies soon appeared, and the children jumped out of the car with heavy weapons. They seemed to know how to protect the most important combat power, and they protected a little boy named Lu Siming in the car. behind.

Soon, Li Jingwu and Liu Chuan understood that Lu Siming was a plant-type supernatural being, and it was he who used the vines on the ground to trip the zombies.

The battle here soon attracted more zombies, who were about to surround them.When Li Jingwu and Liu Chuan watched secretly in the dark, a black cat suddenly jumped out of the car.

The youngest boy named Tian Xin didn't know what to say to Miao Zai. Miao Zai flicked his tail impatiently and rushed into the group of zombies. In a short while, the battle was reversed.

Beastmaster!

Li Jingwu and Liu Chuan looked at each other, they were speechless, they didn't know what to say.Who would have imagined that among this group of children, there was actually a plant-type supernatural being and an animal trainer?

On the other hand, the other children without supernatural powers were not stage-frightened either. They struggled to wave the weapons in their hands, like cubs driven to a desperate situation, frantically biting their enemies, trying their best to survive!

Li Jingwu and Liu Chuan finally understood what Lu Qian said.

Compared with those adults in the survivor base, aren't these children and women absolutely weak?But they dared to fight the zombies to the death, and they dared to sacrifice their own lives to carve out a bloody way of survival for themselves.

In the ever-changing apocalypse, everyone is weak, and the so-called strong are just a group of people who try their best to survive.How many people would rather take a meager salary, do heavy work, huddle in the survivor's base, and dare not go to the wilderness to swing the butcher's knife at the zombies, why?

Because, from the bottom of their hearts, they feel that they are weak, and from the bottom of their hearts, they feel that the group of ferocious zombies outside should be dealt with by the 'strong'.This mentality of relying on cowardice has already doomed their fate.

In Abyss Base, Mo Jie was called into the living room by Lu Qian alone.

Mo Jie was sized up by his cold eyes, and the cold sweat broke out layer after layer on the palm of his hand.

"Captain Lu, what can you do for me?"

Lu Qian pushed a cup of brewed tea in front of him: "It's nothing, I just want to ask what the prehistoric unknown substance in your research institute is."

Mo Jie lowered his eyes, picked up the teacup, and took a sip: "I'm just an ordinary researcher. I only know that the deputy director has been using this substance to refine longevity potions, and later used this substance on zombies. Others Yes, I don't know."

"You really don't know anything?"

Mo Jie shook his head again and again.

"If you don't know anything, why have you been wandering around the batch of things in the institute for the past two days? Or is it hidden in that batch of instruments?"

Mo Jie was startled, the cup in his hand shook and almost fell out, he forced himself to be calm: "I really don't know anything."

"Do you dare to look me in the eyes and say it again?"

Mo Jie subconsciously looked into Lu Qian's eyes, the pupils were as black as ink, as cold as ice, like an abyss, and fell into it accidentally.

"Okay, tell me now, do you know where the prehistoric unknown substance is?"

Mo Jie looked at Lu Qian dully: "It's on the 9th floor."

"Why are you so sure?"

Mo Jie frowned slightly, as if struggling a bit, and told the truth: "Because the item is very important, we sent a group of special forces to fetch it on the 9th floor. We were entangled by zombies and many people died. I The person who took the things was pushed into the group of zombies and escaped by taking the elevator. Later, the whole research institute was sealed off, and the things were also sealed in the research institute."

"So you plan to find this thing quietly and turn it over to the government?"

Mo Jie laughed happily: "That's right, as long as I have this thing, I can return to the Chinese Academy of Sciences and be a senior researcher. But..."

"But what?"

"However, I couldn't find this thing no matter how hard I searched. There are still many devices on the negative 7th to negative 9th floors that disappeared out of thin air. I suspect that Lu Qian and the others have spatial abilities."

Lu Qian's heart moved, and he strengthened his mental control over Mo Jie: "Have you ever seen a person with space abilities?" It is rumored that people with psychic abilities can open up a mental space that can store things when they cultivate to level seven or above, but this is only It's just rumors, no one has seen it.There have always been rumors of people with space abilities, but they have been proven to be just rumors one by one. Could it be that there really are people with space abilities?

"I've seen it." Mo Jie nodded, "But he's already dead."

"why?"

"His spatial ability was produced after injecting that unknown substance. It was only 20 square meters, which was too small. Later, someone discovered that as long as he injected more purified unknown substances, the space could be expanded, and they kept giving him He injected medicine, and when his space expanded to 1000 square meters, he exploded."

"Then, have you conducted experiments on other people? Are there any other spatial abilities?"

"It was done, but it all failed."

"Why do you know so much insider information but Wang Fan doesn't?" As an ordinary researcher at the same time as Mo Jie, Wang Fan obviously only knows some basic things, and even has only a half-knowledge about prehistoric unknown substances, otherwise he would not say it easily.

"Lily told me?"

"Who's Lily?"

"The director's wife, one of the senior researchers, said that as long as I can become a senior researcher, she will divorce the director and stay with me."

"What about your wife and children?"

"Together, they can't compare to Lily." Mo Jie's face showed a look of happiness mixed with contempt. Lu Qian didn't know whether to call this man stupid or call him ruthless, for a married woman He didn't hesitate to risk his life to think about things that didn't belong to him, but he abandoned his wife and children like walking shoes.

"Fine, get out now. If anyone asks, just say you went to the bathroom just now."

"Yeah." Mo Jie walked out of the living room with a dazed expression, and returned to the board room where he lived.

Seeing that his expression was not right, Wang Fan asked, "Old Mo, what's wrong with you? You look so ugly, what did you do just now?"

Mo Jie was in a daze for a moment, and said, "I went to the toilet."

"I went to the toilet just now, why didn't I see you? Could it be that you got into the women's toilet? You old bastard still wanted to fool me. I just saw you with Captain Lu. "The relationship between Wang Fan and Mo Jie is not very good. Wang Fan can't get used to Mo Jie's love of hunting, and Mo Jie can't see Wang Fan's lack of ambition. If it wasn't for being imprisoned in the ammunition depot for so long, the two of them I am afraid there will not be much intersection.

Mo Jie's expression suddenly became flustered: "I haven't seen him, so I went to the toilet, I went to the toilet..."

"Old Mo, are you alright?"

"I'm a little dizzy and want to sleep."

"Okay, then go to sleep, I'll go out for a while." Wang Fan felt that Mo Jie's expression was very strange, thinking that everyone's mental state was not good some time ago, so he didn't care.After going out for a while and coming back, Mo Jie returned to his usual appearance, and he immediately put the little doubts in his heart behind him.Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, he was soundly asleep, when he heard movement in the room, when he woke up, Mo Jie clutched his heart in convulsions and died just like that.

The doctor said that he died of myocardial infarction, but Wang Fan recalled that Mo Jie went to see Lu Qian during the day, and subconsciously felt that the matter was not that simple.

When he returned to City A, the group from the Chinese Academy of Sciences approached him and asked him if he had ever seen a metal box, a flash of inspiration flashed in his head, and instantly connected the cause and effect of the incident.He had inadvertently known that what was contained in that box was a prehistoric unknown substance!

He told the Chinese Academy of Sciences without changing his expression that the 7th to 9th floors were completely destroyed by zombies, and there was an explosion inside, and he had never seen the box they mentioned.

After dispelling the doubts of the group of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Wang Fan found Lu Xun calmly, successfully joined the research institute of the Black Claw Mercenary Group, and successfully helped the Black Claw Mercenary Group pry a lot of corners of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Of course, these are all for later.

Before leaving the abyss base, the eight children and two women finally collected 100 crystal nuclei, and the other two women also took out 20 crystal nuclei. The car of the Black Paw Mercenary Group.

After successfully returning to City A, Lu Qian left the ten people who went out to kill zombies together in the mercenary group, and let the other two women who obtained the crystal nucleus by selling their bodies leave.

For those without supernatural powers, let them learn ancient martial arts first and help the mercenary group with logistics. Lu Qian left the two children with supernatural powers alone.

"Lu Siming, Tian Xin, do you know why I keep you here?" Lu Qian looked at the two children. They took a bath and put on clean clothes. They were about the same height. Lu Siming was as beautiful as a little girl with red lips and white teeth. Xin Nong has thick brows and big eyes, but also very cute.

"Because we have abilities!"

"Because we can kill zombies!"

Lu Qian finally realized what a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers. He laughed and said, "Anyone in our mercenary group is better than you."

Tian Xin pursed her lips and said loudly: "But we are young, when we grow up to your age, we will definitely beat you!"

"I'm looking forward to the day when you all come out of blue." Lu Qian opened the small box on the coffee table, took out a stem-like thing like a sweet potato, and something like an egg, and handed them to Lu Siming and Tian Xin respectively, "Lu Siming, what I give you is A very powerful mutated plant. Tian Xin's is the companion ant queen of this plant. The two of you try to breed them. When you can cooperate in combat, I will let you officially join my personal guards.

If you can't..."

As soon as they heard the word SS, the eyes of the two children shone.

"We will definitely do it!" Lu Siming and Tian Xin said in unison.

"Very well, since you are so sure, let me see the results within three months."

"It's best not to disappoint me." Lu Qian turned his head and said to Zhu Bin who was sitting next to meowing cubs, "Zhu Bin, I will arrange for Lu Siming and Tian Xin to live next door to you, and let your sister take care of them more. This paragraph The food and crystal cores they spent during the time were directly given to Wu Liang, and asked him to record them in the account and pay them back when they are able to perform missions in the future."

Zhu Bin nodded happily. Compared with adults, he prefers to play with children. What's more, Tian Xin, like him, can communicate with small animals, which is really great.

In the evening, Zhu Bin took his two children around the villa area, had a friendly and in-depth exchange of feelings with Du Ke and the others, and finally went home longing for nothing.

A Lang had just returned from training in the fitness center, and when he saw Zhu Bin holding a child with one hand, his sunny smile suddenly collapsed.He slapped away the fat claws of the two little guys, bared his teeth at them, and dragged Zhu Bin possessively into the house.There are stupid dogs, fat cats, and a group of damned jaguars, and now two cubs are coming to rob him of his wife, and he, the wolf king, is simply ignored!

"Xiao Qian, what are you thinking?" As soon as Xue Chen came back from the outside, he saw Lu Qian sitting on the sofa alone in a daze.

"I'm thinking about that research institute." Lu Qian said, "There is a nuclear power supply system there, as well as an independent drinking water system, and the defenses can't be breached by those who mutate quickly. It's an excellent choice for a base, but it's too small. "

Xue Chen had an idea: "Then what if we choose that place as a transit point?"

"Well, I originally planned to wait until winter, find a place along the coast, and kill zombie fish to make a fortune."

"If possible, we can also send some people to station there. I believe there will be many zombie hunters willing to join our mercenary group." Xue Chen is obviously not satisfied with a mere transfer station.

Lu Qian understood what he meant: "It's a pity that the underground research institute is too small, and the capacity to accommodate 2 people in an emergency is the limit."

"So you still want to build a base there?" Xue Chen walked to him and sat down.

"No." Lu Qian said: "I guess there may be an alien spacecraft in the depths of the Shenlong rack. If I can find it, I don't want to hand it over to the government and make wedding dresses for others. Then, we must need one A secret and safe place for people who know how to study it. Research institutes are a good choice, but the premise is that someone must stay there for a long time to ensure the safety of researchers and things.”

"It's easy to handle. We can split the two groups of people to stay in the past, and then let them recruit some powerful zombie hunters locally, and use the nearby army barracks to form a small base. At that time, we will put the underground research institute at the bottom of the base. The third floor is all sealed and used for research."

As he said that, Xue Chen hesitated for a moment, held Lu Qian's shoulders with both hands, and let him look at him, he slowly said what was in his heart, "Xiaoqian, although city A is safe, I don't think we should just Confined to city A, if possible, it is best to build our own base.

That way, you and Lu Xun don't have to hide the existence of the space anymore, and Lu Xun can use his special ability to get more useful materials in the city.With all of these, we may not be able to build a base stronger than City A!What's more, whether it's the strength of the three of us or the overall strength of the entire mercenary group, they are all living signs. As long as our base is built, we don't have to worry about no strong people coming to join us. "

At this moment, Lu Qian had to admit that his thinking was indeed limited by the 'past life', so let's call it all the past life.

Perhaps, in essence, Lu Qian is not a truly ambitious person.From the beginning to the end, his greatest wish was to survive together with Xue Chen and Lu Xun in the last days. He never thought of creating a base beyond the existence of City A.

It has to be said that the blueprint drawn by Xue Chen was indeed very feasible and moved him very much.

"I have to think about this matter."
