The convoy passed by a highway next to the city, and Xia Xi rode a motorcycle at the forefront. When passing a gas station, he suddenly saw several corpses.

These corpses all have a very uniform feature, that is, they are covered with plants.Xia Xi didn't pay much attention. After all, in the last days, corpses can be seen everywhere.

"Stop!" Zhao Mo also saw the scene on the side of the road, and immediately signaled a stop to the motorcade behind him, and the motorcade pulled to the side of the road to stop.

Xia Xi, who was riding a motorcycle, turned his head on the spot, turned back, and saw Chao Mo squatting next to the dead body at the gas station, with a serious expression on his face.

"What's wrong?" Xia Xi asked.

"It's a mutated clover, and it's here too. No wonder those people just covered themselves up so tightly." Chao Mo grabbed a leaf from the corpse and twisted it in his hand.

Xia Xi took a closer look, only to realize that the dense green plants were the mutated clover that had cheated them not long ago.

These people used the antidote and naturally no longer feared the poison of the clover, but for most supernatural beings, the toxin of the clover was still fatal.

"Why did it appear here? Isn't it far away from Quanshi Town?" Xia Xi vaguely realized that the matter was a bit serious. According to the contagiousness of these clover, once it spreads out, low-level supernatural users and ordinary people have no resistance at all , and hard to guard against.

Xiang Lei glanced at the body that had been dead for a long time on the ground: "Looking at the situation, the mutated clover here probably appeared for a while."

"In the northwestern area, autumn and winter are dry and cold, and there is little rain, which naturally inhibits the spread of clover. The spread of clover here so quickly must be due to human intervention." Chaomo clenched his fists: "I'm afraid it's not just here. This place is far away from Jingting City There are more than 1000 kilometers, and it is not an important resource area, even here there are clover, and the damage range is probably wider than we imagined."

Gu Ming cursed bitterly: "These bastards in Jingting City are still killing each other no matter what time they are."

"The research institute has never treated people as human beings. For the sake of profit, everything can be sacrificed." Jing Lan didn't have too much anger on his face, as if he had expected what the research institute had done: "The climate in autumn and winter naturally inhibits The clover grows, and the real crisis will come next spring, when the monsoon and abundant rain will allow the seeds of the mutated clover to cover the entire Star Continent."

Chao Mo nodded in agreement, and followed Jing Lan's words: "The traffic is closed in the last days. In the spring of the next year, the mutated clover will catch other places by surprise. Even if they want to buy medicine, the time is not allowed, so I guess the research institute is doing it on purpose. Choose this time point, kill the chickens to warn the monkeys, first use the dozens of nearby cities to act, those who want to survive must find ways to attach to Jingting City, and buy the antidote at a high price in advance. If other places do not want to live the last spring of vitality next spring, This winter is their last chance."

Gu Ming became anxious when he heard this: "Jingting City cannot be allowed to control all the shelters. These shelters are simply fleeing to them. They have a lot of means to control people. As long as they capture the managers of the shelters in various places, then Will it be what they say in the future?"

"There is only one way to stop them," Chao Mo said. "Get the female clover."

"I'll go." Jing Lan took the initiative to say, "Anyway, I planned to go to Jingting City to check the situation."

"I'll plan this matter in detail after returning to the base, I'm afraid that the research institute will use the female clover as bait to catch you." Chao Mo said: "Get in the car first, although this matter is urgent, you have to take it slowly. I plan to go to the city to see the extent of the influence of the clover, and to inquire about the price of the antidote given by Jingting City."

Xiang Lei raised his doubts: "There is a risk of exposure when entering the city. We have destroyed the base of the Chosen One. The research institute must not let it go. Maybe the order to arrest us is already on the way."

"What are you afraid of? If we really want to fight, we won't be defeated." Gu Ming hooked Xiang Lei's neck with one hand: "The captain keeps a low profile and just doesn't want to cause trouble. It's not that he's afraid of these trash fish."

An hour later, Uncle Shisan and his party came to hunt down the wanted criminal, but they were bumped into by the light-chasing team entering the city.Although there were a few reborns in Uncle Thirteen's team, they were not enough compared to the elites in Chaomo's hands. Xia Xi and Jing Lan didn't even have a chance to make a move, so they were taken down by Xiang Lei and a few team members.

"Uncle Thirteen, is that you?" Chao Mo recognized the leader.This person is over fifty years old, but his body is very strong. He is a fire-type supernatural being. When the end of the world began, he was the captain of a search and rescue team.Afterwards, a huge mutation happened in one breath, and all kinds of mutated creatures suddenly appeared, destroying their search and rescue station, and thirteen of his subordinates were also killed on the spot.

In order to commemorate them, Uncle Thirteen changed this title for himself. He was a lone ranger in his last life, and his goal was to kill all the mutant creatures in the world. He has been working hard for this.Chaomo once wanted to recruit him, but the other party was very stubborn and only wanted to be a lone ranger fighting mutant creatures. In the end, he disappeared during a hunt in the fifth year of the last days.

"It's me." Thirteenth Uncle sighed: "I still remember that you sent someone to recruit me to join your Zhuguang City in your previous life. I didn't expect to meet again and become an enemy."

Chao Mo: "Is it for the arrest warrant?"

When the two sides met just now, the other party moved directly without saying hello.And the first move was a killer move, obviously aimed at them.

"You already know the arrest warrant?" Uncle Thirteen was a little surprised. When he died in his previous life, the City of Chasing Light hadn't collapsed yet.So he didn't know the grievances between Chaomo and Jingting City.It's just that Jingting City regards Zhuguang City as a competitor and intends to kill them in the cradle.

"It can probably be guessed." Chaomo thought: Although Jingting City's approach can't really kill us, it can compress our development space.

"What price are they asking?"

"One life, one thousand antidotes." Uncle Thirteen said.If the reward was not too tempting, he would not kill a group of irrelevant people.

But a thousand antidotes are the lives of a thousand people in the shelter, so how does he choose?Far and near, he only wants to protect the people he cares about.After all, he was reborn once, and he managed to save his thirteen brothers from the crisis of the doomsday. How could he be willing to watch them fall on a few mutated clover trees?

"Is one thousand enough?" Chao Mo asked.

"What?" Uncle Thirteen didn't respond.

Chao Mo asked again: "How many people in the refuge have been hit by the clover, and how many are still alive?"

Thirteenth Uncle finally understood, and a look of pain appeared in his eyes: "There are 5000 people in the refuge, half of them are infected, and seven or eight hundred have died. Although the five-day event has been controlled as much as possible, people are still infected every day."

"When was the clover first discovered?"

"Probably, a week ago."

The people in the team looked at each other in blank dismay, it was about the same time as the Chosen One used the clover.It seems that once Jingting City fiddled with this thing, it didn't intend to leave a way for others to survive.

"What price?" Chao Mo continued to ask.

"A third-level crystal nucleus can be exchanged for an injection, or equivalent materials."

"How to trade, is there enough time?"

"The other party has a modified transport plane, which can avoid the hunting of mutated flying creatures. Just send them a message to say a deal, and prepare the trading materials, and the other party's plane will arrive on the same day."

Uncle Thirteen observed everyone's expressions, and suddenly grabbed Chao Mo's hand, saying urgently, "You are investigating this matter, are you? Can you tell me what happened to this clover? I clearly remember this terrible thing, It only appeared in the third year of my last life, how could it be, how could it be so fast?"

This is also what he has been puzzled about.

Chaomo: "It was made by the refuge in Jingting City. They made this deadly devil clover themselves, and they made a lot of money by selling the antidote, and they waited for the opportunity to suppress and control other forces."

"This..." Thirteenth Uncle was a little skeptical. It was hard for him to imagine how someone would use such vicious means to harm his own kind for a little power in the last days.

Chaomo had already asked the information he wanted to know, and he didn't expect to win the trust of the other party with just a few words, but said: "I know Uncle Thirteen is a trustworthy person. You promise me one thing, and I will let you and me go." Your companion. And give you one hundred and three levels of crystal cores, although it's a drop in the bucket, it's still a little bit of our kindness."

"Tell me." Uncle Thirteen didn't think that one hundred third-level crystal nuclei would save a hundred lives. He didn't expect that he would still have a way to survive, and now he can survive and save people. He agreed immediately.

Chaomo handed a special remote communicator to Thirteenth Uncle: "You must have a special communication channel for dealing with the shelter in Jingting City. I hope that in the future, you will receive any news from them in the first place." Time will tell."

"Okay, I promise you."

On the way afterwards, the light-chasing team encountered a few more assassination teams for arrest warrants, and passed through many shelters destroyed by clover.

The assassination team was easy to deal with, but seeing the damaged or even destroyed shelters, the atmosphere of the whole team became more and more dignified.

Because of the leadership of the reborn, there are far more people who survived the end of the world in this life than in the previous life.They originally thought that after rebirth, everything was going in a good direction.Who knew a mutated clover knocked them back to their original form.

This situation gradually improved after [-] kilometers away from Jingting City. The climate here is colder, and people are not affected by the clover. Most of them are actively hunting and stockpiling supplies for the winter.

In order to hide the location of the base, Chaomo set up several transit stations here. After changing cars twice, changing clothes, and changing their attire, a group of young men in ragged clothes entered an underground tavern in twos and threes, and from there The underground passage of the toilet came to the port not far away, and I took a ship to the pier on the other side.

Their base is hidden in an abandoned school near the pier.

The student dormitories were kept, the classrooms were converted into training rooms, and the laboratory was built underground, which was not smaller than the Chosen One's.

In addition to the 16 people in the convoy, there are hundreds of people living in the base, about half of which are ordinary people and people with supernatural powers.

They came back just in time for dinner, and they could smell the aroma of food wafting from the cafeteria from a distance.Hearing their return, a large group of people surrounded them warmly to say hello. Most of them were family members of the hunting team, so a family reunion would not be without some pleasantries.

Among them, the most people were around Chaomo. Apart from his mother and sister who asked about his health, there were also many people who followed him in Zhuguang City in the previous life. Although they had no blood relationship, they were closer than some relatives with blood relationship.

Only Jing Lan and Xia Xi stood alone and looked at each other.

"Jing Lan, where's that pretty little boyfriend of yours? Don't tell me you didn't get it back?" A young man who looked exactly like Jing Lan, but looked more mature and cheerful hooked Jing Lan's shoulder with a smile. .

"Don't ask about this." Jing Lan's tone was much gentler than usual.This is Jing Yue. If someone else asked him this question, he might be surrounded by corrosion abilities in the next second.

Well, now only Xia Xi is left alone.

Chaomo noticed that Xia Xi was standing alone in the same place, and handed over the collected materials to the subordinates, and then introduced Xia Xi's origin to others: "This is Mr. Black Crow, the legendary skeleton superhuman, his strength He is very powerful, and he has helped us a lot along the way, it is not an exaggeration to say that he was a life-saving grace, although he did not join the light-chasing team, I hope everyone can treat him like a family member."

"no problem."

"The captain's benefactor is our benefactor."

"Skeleton ability? So cool!"

These people focused on Xia Xi, looked at Xia Xi curiously, and approached enthusiastically, thanking, saying hello, asking questions, introducing themselves, very much like the seven aunts who gathered around when returning to their hometown for the New Year Eighth Auntie is so enthusiastic that it is a bit overwhelming.

"Hello Mr. Black Crow. Thank you for saving my son."

"Why is Mr. Black Crow dressed like this? Is he feeling unwell?"

"How old is Mr. Black Crow this year, is there a date!"

"Mr. Black Crow, I am Gu Ming's younger brother. My name is Gu Yu. Do you like playing games? I have a lot of pre-apocalyptic game disks here!"

"Mr. Black Crow, what do you like to eat, I am the chef here, tell me what you want to eat in the future!"

"Mr. Black Crow..."

"Quack quack quack!"

Xia Xi held down the frightened little crow, and looked at Chaomo with the same terrified eyes.

It's a pity that Chaomo didn't have the ability to read the soul fire through the mask, so he ignored his plea for help, and thoughtfully explained to Xia Xi to prepare a residence, and reminded Song Qiao to remember to help him change his clothes and motorcycle and send them there.

Xia Xi held on to his hood tightly. He was not afraid of strangers, but he would seem at a loss when dealing with strangers' overly straightforward enthusiasm and kindness.I was worried that I said something wrong and shouldn't say it, and I was afraid that I would scare others with my whole body.
