At the entrance of the semi-underground food city, Qin Luo looked a little nervous. On the surface he said that he was going to search for things with Mo. In fact, they were going to take away everyone, so to see if a certain number of mutant mice had gathered below. If there are really a lot of mutant mice, he will deal with Mo as soon as possible after killing them; if there is so much that even Mo can't hold them, maybe there will be trouble tonight. After all, the zombies surrounding this floor have been cleaned up. Without those zombies, it would be easier for rats to get in and out. Even if they knew that mice were going to attack them, they would not be able to leave overnight. Not to mention that it's not easy to leave too many people. It's just the four of them. In the urban area of ​​the night, besides Mo and Dai Tianqing, he and Fang Xiaoyu are playing hard.
Qin Luo was holding a Mongolian knife and was slightly sweaty. He always hated mutant mice and worms, and it was disgusting to look at them. After all these creatures mutated, they magnified a lot and looked disgusting several times.
Mo felt his accelerated heartbeat and held his other hand.
Qin Luo did not refuse and was carefully guarded by Mo, slowly walking down the stairs at the entrance all the way.
Although the food city is semi-underground, the surrounding area is tightly closed, and the light that it can penetrate is very limited. It was about to be sunset, and it was getting dark outside. Qin Luo step down to half, he had to find a flashlight to brighten the lighting.
The commercial building was shut down urgently for more than a month, and personnel were evacuated again in a hurry. Many garbage and debris were left untreated. After being left for so long, it has already decayed and moldy. At the beginning, the air-conditioning exhaust was still open, barely allowing the air to circulate, and maybe even smelling. Right now, the whole city has been without power for many days. In such a closed space, Qin Luo and Mo hadn't waited to get down the stairs, and they could not help but frowned and vomited.
With the flashlight, Qin Luo could see the stall closest to the stairs. Some things were piled up on the berths, and the bamboo sticks stringed during the period could be seen faintly, but the above things were glued together, and the state of food was long gone.
Qin Luo took a picture with his flashlight. No abnormalities were found, and Mo took his hand to the next shop.
After walking through the seven or eight stalls, Mo foot slowly lowered the voice and said, "There are some big mice on this floor, but not many. It feels strange, since we came in to the present, they haven't moved."
Qin Luo frowned, and the mutant mice at the beginning were indeed relatively larger than their counterparts. But the limbs were very stiff, and the movements were slower than human zombies. However, their resilience is much higher than that of zombies. Maybe you saw it like a puppet the day before, and they can attack quickly the next day. And they are also sensitive to flesh and blood. If you feel the breath of human beings, even if your body is still stiff, you should never move in the corner.
In the last days, animals began to mutate after half a year, which is far less rapid now. Mutated mice have been reduced numerous times compared to their amazing population, but they are even more fierce. Basically, they can grow up to half the size of a pig, but their lives have been shortened. Fewer adults can live for three years, but adults that are more than two years old are about the size of normal adults before the end of the world. pig. And they have a strong appetite, and few things can't get into their mouths.
Mo took a few more steps and suddenly held Qin Luo, whispering "There seems to be something downstairs, and it is preying on a big mouse underneath, and the volume seems not too small."
Qin Luo was a little puzzled and whispered "Is it a nearby wild cat that was brought here by a mouse?"
The eschatological process is accelerating at the moment, but it will continue gradually. It is impossible for some mice to suddenly grow larger than others. It is very likely that these wild cats have increased in size after the same mutation. If they are Qin Luo, they are not difficult to deal with.
The two walked through several stalls, and the ground became more and more messy. It seemed that the rats were grabbing garbage and food below. The floor was sticky. Although it was across shoes, it was still uncomfortable to step on. Qin Luo held a flashlight and shone around, Mo felt carefully and carefully. Because it was not close to each other across a floor, the thing just passed by. I want to feel again, I have run out of the scope of perception.
Suddenly Qin Luo slipped at his feet, as if he had stepped on something, and his entire body was tilted by it. Mo's long arm stretched him into his arms, and Qin Luo's waist was wrapped in his hands. Mo's hands are a little cool, but reassuring. Qin Luoluo struggled to get out of Mo's embrace, but Mo did not let go. Qin Luo was a little helpless, secretly saying, ‘This guy is sometimes like a little twisted child, and there is no one else at the moment. If he wants to hold it, let him hold it. ’
Flashlight flashed, Qin Luo shot to his feet. The thing was so soft and smooth just now, it didn't look like garbage. In the dim light, there was a four- or five-inch oblong, dirty thing mixed on the sticky floor. Because of Qin Luo's stampede, he made a disgusting trajectory. The thing was so dirty, if it wasn't for Qin Luo stepping on it, it would be difficult to tell that he was separated from the debris in one place. Qin Luo carefully kicked with the tip of his shoe, and from the texture, it seemed to be torn off from some animal.
"That's a human tongue," Mo suddenly said softly.
Qin Luo immediately retracted his feet, and the whole body shook through a goose bump.
Mo went on, "It tastes a little weird ..."
As Mo moved his nose, he turned to look around. His night vision ability is very strong, and soon made a new discovery in a dirty garbage. Tugging Qin Luo along the way, he found a pile of unknown objects piled up in a relatively hidden position. The pile of seemingly disgusting things exudes a faint aroma. After moving closer to it, the rotten and disgusting smell in the air suddenly swept away. However, Qin Luo can still see that those things are stained with some light-colored mucus, which are human clothes, shoes, and hats.
Mo carefully sensed that there was no danger there, so he approached Qin Luo.
With the flashlight, Qin Luo could see that the clothes were dirty and torn. Although there was some pale mucus on it, he could see the black purple stains on the clothes. It should be the blood of the infected person, because only the blood of the infected person is dark.
Qin Luo took a cool breath. Obviously, in the basement of this commercial building, there was something to feed on the zombies. This was unheard of in the last days he experienced.
Mo was also a little surprised. "It seems that these zombies were eaten by something, and that thing couldn't digest the clothes."
In the early days of the last days, zombies dominated, and the city has almost become a lair. Although many humans have evolved, zombies have also evolved. After the middle period, the blood race and the mad werewolf have appeared one after another, and their fighting power is very powerful, which can tear the zombie whole. But it is absolutely impossible for them to devour the flesh and blood of zombies. Because the mutants become zombies, there is no life energy in the flesh and blood, for them is a pile of carrion. Zombies evolved gradually in the later period, and some mature bodies have been able to compete with mad werewolves and blood races. But after ten years in the last days, Qin Luo has never heard of any creature that feeds on zombies.
"Be careful, something comes up."
Mo's voice didn't fall, he slammed Qin Luo's brush, and receded a distance of nearly 20 meters. He stood sideways, staring at a direction in the dark, with sharp nails bursting in his left hand, and Qin Luo's waist still pinching his right hand, protecting him tightly.
Qin Luo was not quite able to adapt to the speed of the ink burst, and suddenly he was dizzy. Fortunately, Mo's teleportation distance is not long, and it stops soon, otherwise Qin Luo feels that his internal organs will churn and even move completely.
Qin Luo did not have Mo's night vision ability. He slowly moved the light of the flashlight in the direction that Mo was staring at. The flashlight can illuminate the area.
But the dangerous breath emanating from that place was already very strong, and even Qin Luo could easily sense it, and it is no wonder that the keen ink would be close to the enemy.
But after waiting for a long time, there was nothing in that direction. The dangerous breath that the Buddha just sent out was just the illusion of two people.
"It didn't leave, but I can't feel it ..." Mo frowned rarely.
Qin Luo also felt that the other party was definitely not a simple role, and it could be hidden so that Mo could not sense it.
As I was thinking, suddenly the wind sounded behind me, Mo's body swiveled, and the sharp nails of his left hand went straight in that direction. In the dark, Qin Luo heard something as if it was cut off by ink, and it fell to the ground, the sound was not loud but he could barely hear it. However, Mo's movement was too fast. Qin Luo was dragged by him, and soon he was dizzy and brainless. He had no intention to distinguish the movement around him.
Mo looked at him with vigilance, but the thing attacked him with many vine-like tentacles, but he didn't know where to hide it. The tentacles cut off by Mo, after twitching a few times on the ground, actually squirmed, and the tail slightly hooked up and hooked up, as if rushing his fingers to let him follow. Fortunately, those tentacles are creeping away in different directions. Even if Mo wants to completely repair the hiding body with the past, he can't start. The corner of Mo's mouth was drawn, and the thing seemed to have an IQ. This was obviously playing a trick on him, which was really abominable.
Qin Luo felt that the food in his stomach was tumbling, and the basement and its terrible air, if he stayed, he would definitely vomit.
Mo also noticed his discomfort, and slowly moved towards the entrance of the passage around his waist.
Suddenly another blast of wind came towards the two, and Mo shot again to cut off a bunch of tentacles. This time, the tentacles did not slip away, but followed the two around them. Some of the tentacles wanted to be close to Qin Luo, and Mo was swept away in time.
Although Qin Luo was very uncomfortable, he still held the flashlight to photograph those creeping tentacles. The tentacles look a bit emerald. If it is not twisted, it looks like a finely carved emerald. They seem to be able to absorb the light source, and Qin Luo can emit a faint fluorescence when he removes the flashlight. Qin Luo sniffed his nose. He faintly felt that the surrounding air was much better than just now, and that nasty taste was weakened. It seems that these tiny tentacles are changing the bad air around them.
Mo's eyebrows were tightly frowned, and the tentacles that had been cut off by him had already surrounded him and Qin Luo, and seemed to want to trap two people inside. The most irritating are the small things that are cuddly, and they can't stop pulsing at him, which is full of provocation.
Qin Luo looked at the tentacles that could not move, and whispered to Mo, "Is the quality of the surrounding air much better?"
Mo gently nodded. "This thing seems to have a purifying effect, but I don't know if there is any other attack power. If those zombies are all devoured by it, it is definitely not easy."
Qin Luo nodded in agreement with Mo's statement.
According to common sense, saprophytes basically do not eat living things, but this does not mean that they will not kill the living things, or they will be putrefied after being trapped. Moreover, this thing eats zombies, who knows what it looks like. Although it doesn't show any powerful offensive power at the moment, the fact that it feeds on zombies is enough to alert Qin Luo and Mo Man.
Many tentacles of that thing were still crawling on the ground, but Mo looked again into the darkness. Qin Luo faintly heard some clicking sounds, as if there was something to bite the bone with his teeth.
"Be careful, a big cat is here." Mo whispered.
Qin Luo had just guessed that what Mo said was not too small was probably a mutated cat. After all, cats and mice are instincts. There are so many big mice here, and it is normal to bring in a few cats.
He raised his flashlight and took pictures in the dark. Sure enough, a big cat stood there, staring at the two with a jealous look. Qin Luo sucked at the corner of his mouth. Mo said that the big cat is a bit right, but it is already similar to a half-big tiger. It should be called a giant cat.
It was an extremely ugly big cat with many pieces of fur all over his body, and his skin was exposed like alopecia areata. There is also a rat tail at the corner of the big cat's mouth. After a few reflexes of nerves, the cat's tongue is rolled and put into its mouth. Then the big cat took a few steps in the direction of the two of them. His body was so huge that he couldn't even hear a sound. Qin Luo couldn't help but want to step back, because it stared at the fierce eyes of the two, as if the two were already food in his mouth.
Qin Luo suddenly remembered the tongue of the person he had accidentally stepped on, and wondered how many people the big cat had eaten. Otherwise, it will never show such a greedy expression, the corner of the mouth has even drooled.
Mo looked coldly at the big cat that was gradually coming together. He had sensed that there were still several big cats of large size running towards them.
The Mongolian knife in Qin Luo's hand was slowly lifted, and the big cat's body was slightly retracted, which was the prelude to its coming culling.
Sure enough, the cat flinched back fiercely, and then culled to Qin Luo. Mo has already waved his left hand in lightning, and his sharp nails have skyrocketed.
But the body that the big cat culled over was born in the air, and then traced a trajectory to the side. He slammed on the ground with a bang, making Qin Luo somehow inexplicable. Mo clearly saw that the air around him suddenly gave birth to many tentacles of ocher color, and trapped the big cat.
The big cat seemed unwilling, struggling to stand up, but seemed to be pulled by something, and failed to get up several times. The big cat hissed angrily, extremely sharp. Soon Qin Luo heard several other hissing sounds, as if responding to its call. He looked around nervously, and it turned out that there were several mutant cats. Although it is not as big as the one just large, it is not small, it is a very fierce look.
But those big cats just snarled at the big cat being pulled, and didn't leave and rushed over. Although Qin Luo was nervous, he was also more curious.
He slowly moved the flashlight to the struggling big cat, and soon saw countless ochre-shaped vines entangled in the cat. Qin Luo was surprised when he was searched by his flashlight, and some of the vines waved slightly in his direction.
The big cat squeaked again, this time with some feline-specific wheezing. The big cats next to it heard it, and immediately trembled. Qin Luo could see that they were obviously afraid of the dark-colored tentacles, but they seemed to be forced by some kind of threat and forced to launch an attack.
The bisque tentacles are not very stout, almost like children's fingers, but they look very flexible, and after holding the big cat, no matter how it struggles and bites, it firmly traps it.
The other big cats finally gathered their courage and rushed to the green tentacles. The tentacles suddenly stopped swinging and bent slightly to one side. Qin Luo suddenly felt in his head that it acted like a person thinking with a tilted head. The next moment, those tentacles suddenly merged together, and suddenly there were a few huge dark things as wide as the door. With the whistling wind, patted the big cats who rushed over.
The big cats didn't seem to have expected it at all. After a pause, they instinctively wanted to escape. But the tanned tentacles were not light, and beating his head and covering his face was a beating. The big cats are not only screamed by the big meow, but the thing is getting faster and faster, as if playing is addicted.
Qin Luo yanked Mo's placket "Can you see what it is?"
Mo frowned. "I can't see the substance of this thing, but it reminds me of something."
When Mo was in the institute, he had used several researchers. One of them is not low in grade and was seconded from another subsidiary of the institute. In that man's memory, there were these turquoise-colored tentacles. It's just that those broken tentacles are far from flexible, sealed in a glass jar, and that person seems to call it ‘evolution 3000’.
Mo Zheng wanted to tell Qin Luo what he knew without letting Qin Luo realize that he could absorb the memory of others while absorbing the blood. Mo Yin felt that this ability was unique to him, because Dai Tianqing was his blood-transformed bloodline, and he also had this ability. But this ability itself carries an indescribable sense of exclusion. He didn't know how Qin Luo would feel in the future and whether he would feel uncomfortable in his heart, so he kept hiding it.
Before Mo could organize his language well, the tentacles there had already put some big cats on the ground and couldn't even produce the escaped . Paws clasped their heads one by one, hoping to shrink themselves under the ground.
The giant tentacle seemed to be boring, and he stopped patting slowly. After a few wriggles, it was divided into countless thin tentacles. The tentacles first teased and tied the big cat a few times, and then pulled the big cat towards the ink cartridge Qin Luo. The big cat tried to struggle not to be dragged by it, and the tentacles trembled angrily and tightened suddenly. The big cat was strangled by its neck, and immediately lost its resistance and was dragged to three meters in front of the two.
Mo still stared cautiously at the pile of creeping small objects, although they seemed to be showing good intentions, but who knows if this is a trap.
The big cat was by the tentacles, and the remainder rushed to the two. Mo waved his left hand without any weakness, and his sharp nails seemed to cut the air. The pile of little tentacles paused, seeming to be annoying him. Several seem to want to sneak in from Qin Luo while Mo is looking at the pile of tentacles, but Mo was cut off a few moments later.
There was a coquettish hum of a small animal in the darkness, and the severed tentacles were like spitting children, rolling and rolling on the ground.
Mo Leng snorted and kicked away those tentacles who tried to approach Qin Luo by rolling again.
Although Qin Luo felt that the green tentacles were not malicious, he did not dare to touch such strange things.
In the depths of the food city in the darkness, a sudden ahhhhh voice came. Those green tentacles on the original land quickly moved towards the sounding place, and disappeared without a trace.
Mo flashed a few times and then came out of the passage. Qin Luo was dizzy after an acceleration, and had to rely on Mo to breathe.
"There may be a lot of zombies crawling in here, I will show you up first, and then go down to see what the is that." Mo Qing Qin Luo suggested.
Qin Luo shook his head and chuckled. "I can deal with a few zombies, but the following things are too strange. You must be careful and not careless."
"What happened to you?" Dai Tianqing's voice came from the communicator.
Qin Luo explained softly, "I don't know any creature yet, but there are a lot of dark-colored vine-like tentacles. It's not too difficult to entangle, and Mo plans to go down and see.
Dai Tianqing also anxiously ordered a few words, and the communicator became quiet again.
Qin Luo also noticed that the following things were trying to approach him several times, and Mo guarded him unavoidably, and it was better to wait for Mo and let Mo see what it was. Based on Qin Luo's understanding of Mo, it has not been trapped by some tentacles. Besides, the blood is strong, even if there is any toxin in that thing, it can't have any effect on Mo.
Mo sensed it carefully, and within a large area, he did not lose his activity. Then he whispered, "Don't go far here, I'll go back when I go."
Qin Luo nodded, and Mo's figure flickered and disappeared into the dark channel.
Qin Luo leaned against the wall, holding a Mongolian knife in his right hand. His left hand side is the entrance to the passage, and on his right side is an open space at the corner. Qin Luo pulled out an emergency light from the space and turned it on at his feet. In this way, not only can you see the open space, but you can also see a long distance at the entrance. Such a long distance is enough for him to be on guard and alert to deal with any dangerous situation that may occur.
"Qin Luo, is there anything wrong with you?" Mo's voice came from the communicator.
"No, it's quiet. Where's yours?" Qin Luo asked Mo while watching the two sides on alert.
Ten years of life in the last days, he has been used to this state of constant vigilance. Besides, it is much safer than in the last days, so he is not nervous.
"Except for some broken tentacles that occasionally popped out and were not found for the time being. But there are still some pieces of clothing here, but they should all be mutated into zombies." Mo returned.
Qin Luo was about to talk back. When he turned his head and saw the entrance of the passage again, suddenly a flash of light and a shadow came to his eyes. The speed of that thing was too fast. Although Qin Luo had fought out the Mongolian knife in his hand to block, his body was still wrapped around quickly. The next instant, he was taken from the ground. With a few shakes, he fell into a pile of furry things.
"Qin Luo, why don't you speak ..." Mo's voice was a little nervous, and just now he faintly heard Qin Luo's breath aggravated momentarily.
Merton became restless, and a few flashed out of the entrance to the food city. A rechargeable emergency light was left alone by the wall, but Qin Luo was missing.
