Chapter 228: Zombies can also eat melons!

The whole house was extremely quiet at that time.

The woman in the red dress hurriedly took back the water that was almost spilled, but it was too late to save it, and more than half of the water still spilled onto the ground.

The tall man waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "Why are you being so careful? Even if this water is gone, our tap water..."

As he was speaking, a short, fat boy who was guarding the kitchen came running over and said, "Brother! The tap water is suddenly out!"

The tall guy was a little shocked and asked, "What?"

The little fat man said quickly: "I was just guarding there, and I just dozed off. When I woke up, I found that the tap water was no longer running."

The tall man asked quickly, "What about the spare water I asked you to get?"

As a group of people were talking, the radio on the table suddenly resumed its intermittent broadcast: "So far, the water source area has been seriously polluted, and all tap water supplies in the city have been cut off. Please do not drink polluted water, and seek refuge in a safe base as soon as possible. Please note that the latest news we have received is that some zombies have shown an evolutionary trend, which is specifically manifested in their appearance... people... pay attention..."

The radio started to intermittently sound again and I couldn't make out the last sentence clearly.

The tall guy didn't have a good temper to begin with, and once he got angry, he became even more irritable. He slapped the radio again and said, "Damn it! How come I can't hear anything at the critical moment? This broken radio!"

He was so strong that he smashed the radio into pieces with one blow.

The woman in the red dress screamed, "Why are you doing that? This is our last radio!"

The tall guy was dissatisfied and said, "What are you yelling about? If it weren't for you, wouldn't our last bottle of water be gone? You stinky woman, I haven't settled the score with you yet!"

The two men were about to start quarreling when a loud roar was suddenly heard at the door. Because the noise and movement in the house were so loud, it attracted another wave of zombies, who came and banged on the door together.

This hotel was already old, and there was a crack on the door. Everyone's heart was instantly lifted up. If the door was broken, all of them would be doomed!

At this moment, there was another roar outside. It was a strange low roar that seemed to come from the throat. Then there was the sound of flesh being torn apart with blood flying everywhere. No one even knew what was happening. Only slow and heavy footsteps could be heard. Finally, the door fell into silence.

Everyone looked at each other.

Jian Yue was the person closest to the gate. He walked outside and slowly opened the peephole. There was some blood splatter there, so he could only see a scarlet patch, but he could still see outside from some angles. Just as he was about to take a closer look, the sound of the peephole opening seemed to attract attention from outside again. A bloody mouth pounced towards the peephole.

At the same time, another black figure rushed out and bit the man's neck fiercely, blood and flesh flew everywhere! As soon as they left, Jian Yue finally saw the outside clearly, there were corpses everywhere, it was horrible to see!

Such a scene was really eye-catching. Jian Yue felt numb all over. Someone was chasing after him and asking, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Jian Yue, standing there, looked calm, as if he had everything under control.

After being patted on the shoulder by the person behind him, Jian Yue leaned against the wall to keep himself steady, not falling down because of weak legs, looking as if he was in a trance. This time, his original body was particularly fragile, especially it seemed that there was some problem with his heart. Jian Yue felt his heart tightening and cold sweat was still on his body.

The audience in the live broadcast room were all a little amused:

"It looks fine, but the person has been gone for a while."

“Hahahaha out of body!”

"Butler Wang, even if the sky falls, you have to stay calm."

"The body I randomly picked this time is in very poor condition!"

No matter how strong the soul that enters this body is, the reaction of the original owner's body is also very important. If the original owner is weak and sickly, it will affect the tasker to some extent.

Jian Yue paused for a long time, his face pale. He took off his glasses. For some reason, he was pounced by the bloody mouth outside the cat's eyes. He even felt that even his glasses had a bit of indelible fishy and bloody smell. He slowly said, "There are many monsters guarding outside."

Not far away came the surprised voice of the woman in the red dress: "Brother Liu! Have you awakened your superpowers?"

When everyone looked over, they found that the tall man could actually lift a cabinet with one hand. He said in a rough voice: "Get out of the way!"

When everyone gave in, he blocked the entire door with a cabinet and said, "I don't think this door will be blocked for much longer, go get the cabinets in the corridor and block this place!"

Jian Yue had recovered by now. This body was really weak. The old things in the room were old, and now they were placed so heavily that they stirred up a lot of dust. Jian Yue coughed twice again. The corners of his eyes were red. When he coughed, his thin shoulders moved. His whole body looked particularly pitiful, but when he raised his head, his eyes were calm and determined.

"We can't stay here for long." Jian Yue said, "It's no use just blocking the door. Now without food and water, we will be trapped here to death."

The tall man was distracted for a moment when he looked at Jian Yue's watery eyes. After hearing these words, he immediately snorted and said, "Didn't you hear the radio saying that there would be rescue? And don't you know how many zombies there are in this building? They will tear you to pieces as soon as you leave the corridor!"

The woman in the red skirt also said, “That’s right. Now that Brother Liu has awakened his great power, we can stay here and kill any zombies that come in. We just need to wait until we are rescued!”

Tiantian and Li Lele came over and wanted to talk, but Jian Yue stopped them. He just pushed his glasses and said, "Well, in that case, let's just wait."

Seeing that he was obedient, Brother Liu sneered and went back. He had awakened his special ability and it was as if he suddenly had some say. He shouted loudly, "Bring me the cabinets and seal all these windows!"

Tiantian walked to Jian Yue and whispered, "Butler Wang, I just found that there is indeed some food in the kitchen, which is some instant noodles and biscuits from the hotel, but there are more than ten people here, so many people will finish it in less than five days."

Jian Yue said: "Go back first."

These people sealed the windows everywhere. In fact, the windows had been blocked by furniture long ago, but they were still checking, afraid that something was missed. In the face of such a natural disaster, everyone seemed extremely terrified.

Jian Yue's room is the largest, and it should be the best private room on this floor. It can be seen that the original owner must be either rich or noble, and Brother Liu has not yet reacted to grab the room, so Jian Yue can still live here.

As soon as the door closed, Tiantian sighed and said, "The guild competition is indeed difficult. No wonder the system gave each guild the opportunity to automatically forfeit. In this apocalyptic world, there are few people who will not be scared away, right?"

Li Lele, this kind and simple boy, also had an unhappy look on his face. He felt that too many people had died and he still needed to digest it.

Li Meng is the calmest person. Although her eyesight is not very good, she has more time to think. She said: "The question now is, why are they so sure that the authorities will send someone to rescue them, or are they so sure that they can wait?"

Jian Yue sat on the sofa in the house. He had been there for a long time. He had seen countless cases when he was a forensic doctor, so he was more careful. He said, "Did you notice the date on the bottle of water on the table today?"

Everyone was stunned.

It was such a mess at the time, how could they notice such a small thing.

Jian Yue smiled and said, "The date on that bottle of water is June 18th, and I just looked at the electronic clock in this room, and it shows that it is already June 25th. Generally, hotels will replace the water in the guest rooms on the same day, and the water bottles on the table are all dated 18th, which means that the disaster should have happened on the 18th, and now it is the 25th. There is at least a week in between, and it stands to reason that the food provided by the hotel during this period of time will almost be finished. How could they not know?"

Tiantian thought for a moment and said, "They are not fools, so why are they not in a hurry? And the leader, Brother Liu, has already awakened his great power. He has the ability to fight back, so why not? Why do they have to stay here?"

Everyone discussed it.

Li Meng concluded: "Unless they still have food, and the reserves are very abundant."

"Hidden?" Tiantian said, "Then we have to look carefully tonight, it must be in those sealed and locked iron doors!"

Jian Yue glanced at everyone, smiled softly, and his eyes fell on everyone, and he said slowly: "Maybe his reserve food has always been there."

"..." After the words fell, everyone fell silent.

Those who reacted and those who didn’t, all felt trembling all over.

But it cannot be refuted. Now is the end of the world, all rules are invalid. If it is in other copies, ghosts need conditions to kill people, but in the end of the world, not to mention that ghosts can bite and eat whoever they want, even the living people around you can kill you for survival. There is no law, no discipline here, only survival.

This dungeon was more difficult than any previous dungeon. The winning guild would indeed need tremendous strength.

Tiantian's face was already wrinkled. Thinking that there seemed to be meat in the kitchen, her stomach felt a little sour. She said, "I feel like vomiting."

Jian Yue glanced at the electronic watch not far away and said, "It will be midnight in two hours. We will act then. Li Meng and Lele will stay, and Tiantian and I will go out."

Everyone nodded.

This enclosed space had no light and no gaps, so one could not see outside and therefore had no idea of ​​the time. Especially after dark, there was no other lighting except candles. Cries for help and roars could be heard from the streets outside from time to time, and it became much quieter after nightfall.

Every minute and every second is torture.

When the outside of the room was completely quiet and most people fell asleep, Jian Yue said to Tiantian, "Let's go."

They had to find Aya and Zhang Chong. It was not good to have fewer people at the beginning of the copy. No joke about human life. There were ten rooms on this floor. Each room was tightly closed, but seven rooms were locked from the inside and three rooms were locked from the outside. Jian Yue walked to one of the rooms. The lock was relatively simple. He directly used the wire buckled from the house to unlock it.

Tiantian admired and said: "Butler Wang! You are so skilled in committing crimes, ah no, your methods of doing things are still so skillful!"

Jian Yue: "...Praising everything will only hurt you."

Tiantian obediently made a gesture to shut up.

There was only a click, and the door was unlocked. The whole room was dark, without light, and darkness enveloped it. Jian Yue exchanged a flashlight from the mall. The moment he turned on the flashlight, light came back. He saw what was inside and stood there for a long time without moving.

Tiantian stood behind him and couldn't see clearly inside, so she asked curiously: "What's wrong? Is Aya inside..."

She suddenly choked up and looked at the room in surprise.

There was a man in the house who was tied up and gagged, and his flesh was rotten! He was howling, especially when he was exposed to the light, he howled even more fiercely!

Tiantian was surprised and asked, "He, he has changed?"

Jian Yue looked at the man's lifeless eyes. His eyeballs had fallen out, but he was still so lively. He could already conclude that he was right. He said, "Yes."

"How can we keep it in the house after it mutates?" Tiantian covered her mouth, "Isn't this too dangerous!"

It's like there is a time bomb in the house that could explode at any time.

Tiantian said quickly: "This person is not Sister Aya or Zhang Chong. He looks like he has been dead for many days. Let's go quickly, Steward Wang!"

Jian Yue said, "Wait."

He walked straight in. The smell in the room was indeed not very pleasant, even a little unpleasant. It was the smell of rotting meat. The place was stuffy and the rotten smell accumulated inside. Most people couldn't stand this smell, but he was used to it.

Jian Yue walked up to the bound zombie, squatted down slowly, and seeing the man's tattered clothes, he said, "This man's identity is not simple."

Tiantian was puzzled: "How do you know?"

"He's wearing all famous brands." Jian Yue said, "And look at the logo on his shirt. It says xx Research Institute. Although the first two words are torn and can't be seen clearly, it's certain that he must be a researcher. I guess he's staying in this hotel on a business trip, but something unexpected happened in this room, and that's why Brother Liu and the others are so sure that the authorities will send someone..."

Tiantian realized it, and she said, "Because the authorities are not here to save them, they are here to save this researcher!"

Jian Yue nodded: "Generally, researchers have some chips on their bodies to track vital signs. If they are dead, or just an ordinary researcher is missing, the authorities don't have to go to such great lengths to save him. But Brother Liu and others are so sure, which shows the value of this researcher, or that there is something he carries with him that the authorities cannot give up."

Tiantian immediately guessed, "Brother Liu and the others must have discovered this. Did they hide the things?"

Jian Yue looked at the tied-up researcher, thought for a moment and said, "This possibility cannot be ruled out."

The system panel was refreshed in an instant: "

[Limited Time Mission] Find what the researcher lost

[Mission Details] The thing the researcher swore to protect with his life is lost, please help him find it!

【Task time】Five hours. ”

Jian Yue frowned.

Five hours.

It is past one in the morning now, and it will be daybreak in five hours. Why does the system have to limit this time? Could it be that something will happen in five hours?

As I was thinking about it, the countdown has already begun.

【Four hours and fifty-nine minutes】

Time was slowly passing by, and Jian Yue asked Tian Tian directly: "Have you received the mission?"

Tiantian quickly said, “Yes!”

They are from a guild, so the missions are naturally team-based.

Jian Yue thought for a moment and said, "Li Meng's cards are all about finding things. Maybe she has a way. Let's look around this room first. If we can't find anything..."

As he was speaking, a voice suddenly came from the door.

It was a woman's voice. She was standing at the door in a red dress, and she smiled and said, "So what?"

When everyone turned around, they saw the woman standing at the door. She looked at everyone in the room, her hair reaching down to her shoulders, and smiled. Her red mouth opened wide and she said, "What are you two doing here, not sleeping at this late hour?"

Tiantian quickly turned around and said, "We haven't asked you yet, why did you leave a zombie in the house! What do you want to do! Are you looking for death?!"

The woman in the red dress said, "This zombie is tied up well, how can it be dangerous? But you, sneaking into the room where the zombie is locked up late at night, are you trying to do something bad? This is really courting death! Otherwise, I will send you to death right now!"

Tiantian saw her suddenly take out a knife from behind.

The knife was shining with a sharp cold light, which was particularly dazzling.

But Jian Yue and Tiantian had no way to defend themselves. Seeing that she was about to stab them, at the critical moment, Jian Yue turned off the flashlight. The woman in red instantly lost her light and crashed into the cabinet next to her.

“…”

In the pitch black, Jian Yue said to Tian Tian: "Run!"

The two people rushed directly out the door, and the woman in red chased after them. The stairs here were not easy to run, but Jian Yue found the door of their own room with his extraordinary memory, and rushed in with Tiantian and locked the door.

The door had almost closed when there was a bang from outside.

Then the woman's voice sounded, and it was gentle: "You two open the door, let's have a good talk. I was a little excited just now. I promise not to take the knife. Can we have a good chat?"

Jian Yue shook his head gently at Tiantian.

Sure enough, the next second, there was a sound of a knife hitting the door, and the woman in the red skirt said, "Open the door! Open the door!"

Tiantian whispered, "Why does she have to kill us?"

Jian Yue whispered, "She may have heard our conversation in the room. If I'm not mistaken, she may have taken the researcher's things. She's afraid that if we tell others tomorrow, Brother Liu and others will cause trouble for her, so she must get rid of us."

As soon as she finished speaking, there was a rustling sound of keys being tried outside. She had the keys to every room on this floor!

Tiantian's eyes were filled with horror: "She's coming in!"

As he was speaking, a muffled sound suddenly came from outside.

Then someone's voice rang out: "Butler Wang, Tiantian, are you all right?"

Jian Yue said to Tian Tian, ​​"There are other people's footsteps outside. It shouldn't be the voice of this woman pretending to be someone else. Open the door."

Tiantian: “…”

Butler Wang, how come your ears are so good? She was about to open the door directly!

The door was opened.

Li Meng and Li Lele were indeed outside. The woman in the red skirt was knocked down. Jian Yue walked out and said, "Where is her room? We should go check it out. We might be able to find something useful for us."

Everyone nodded.

The woman lived in the last room in the corridor.

After Jian Yue and everyone else entered, they found that the room was very small but very clean. There was only one cabinet in it. When the cabinet was opened, there were some skirts and clothes, some cosmetics, and nothing else.

Tiantian asked, "How come there is nothing?"

Jian Yue also searched the bed and under the bed, and even knocked on the secret compartment on the wall, but found nothing. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly realized: "It's on her!"

Everyone quickly turned around and went back to look for it.

Just now the woman was knocked unconscious in the corridor, but when they returned to the corridor, it was empty except for some bloodstains. The red walls were painted red, and the dilapidated murals were glowing with a strange light.

The system's task countdown continues:

【Four hours and ten minutes】

The next second, the red-dressed woman's laughter rang out in the silent night. She said slowly, "What are you looking for? Is it me?"

Everyone turned around and saw the red dress hidden in the darkness. She said slowly, "If you don't drink, you will be punished. I gave you a chance but you didn't cherish it. Don't blame me. Go to hell!"

In the silent corridor, Tiantian's legs were shaking with fear, but she still held on to hope and said, "It's okay, it's okay. She's alone, and there are four of us. We're not afraid...we..."

As soon as the words fell.

"roar!"

A monster's roar was heard, and a black figure with a bloody and foul smell suddenly rushed out of the room and rushed straight towards several people standing in the corridor!

They were the scientific researchers at that time!

He was actually released!! He didn't hurt the woman, but only bit them!

Everyone dodged in a panic, and then they heard the woman's shrill laugh: "If you fight me, you're dead!"

The scientific research zombie rushed over fiercely, and the closest one was Jian Yue. Jian Yue took a cabinet from the side to block it, but it was useless. His hands turned into sharp claws and he scratched the furniture to pieces, and almost scratched Jian Yue's hand!

The people around him had no time to stop him.

The zombie seemed determined to protect the woman and kill Jian Yue.

The audience in the live broadcast room were also a little excited:

“This virus is contagious!”

"If you get bitten, you're eliminated."

"These are all auxiliary cards!"

"There is also a teleportation function, but Tiantian can only take one person away, so the others are doomed!!!"

"Butler Wang is really in trouble this time!"

At this critical moment! Jian Yue only saw a flash of golden light passing by.

【Eight Triggers】:

[Gossip: The latest news is that this researcher is actually the boyfriend of the woman in the red dress. He came to run away with her, but the woman in the red dress actually only treats him as a bootlicker. She has been two-timing with Brother Liu for a long time. She even made fun of his short stature in Brother Liu's bed and treated him as a part of her play with Brother Liu!!]
