Chapter 98 Game

The sky was covered by thick dark clouds, appearing a solemn leaden gray. Thunder rumbled in the distance, like continuous horns.

From time to time, some people in the migrating group looked back in panic in the direction of the base.

It's not even the beginning of spring yet, and the wind from the north is like a knife.

"Hurry up! Stop looking!" Qi Lezhang urged loudly. The north wind had cut his vocal cords and made him hoarse. It was hard to believe that he was a young man of only eighteen or nineteen.

The movements of zombies are affected by temperature. Over the past ten years, the Jiyang base in northern China has been relatively peaceful from November to March.

But this year's zombie tide came two months earlier, and the Yudai River, the natural barrier of the Jiyang base, has not yet thawed.

According to information from the reconnaissance team, the scale of this zombie tide is unprecedentedly huge and is still gathering.

In just one month, two large bases were captured.

Qi Lezhang had seen the pictures taken from the helicopter. The purple-black swarm of corpses was like an uncontrolled flood, pouring down from the south.

They must evacuate, otherwise they will face the fate of being massacred!

Some people with special abilities have already escorted the elderly, children, women and children to the base's vehicles to evacuate first, heading to the Xinglan base in Minwa Mountain. The terrain there is steep, covered with snow all year round, and is closest to the Jiyang base. If Jiyang is destroyed, that will be their final resting place.

However, the carrying capacity of vehicles is limited, and many people still need to travel on foot.

"Xiao Qi, don't worry." Another psychic walked up to him and handed the boy a stone that was burned quite warm. She was a fire psychic.

"Sister Lan." Qi Lezhang clenched the stone in his hand, his numb fingertips finally feeling a hint of warmth. "City Lord Huo..."

"Thunder in winter, who else could make such a big scene except him?" Jin Lan said lightly, patting the boy's shoulder. "It's okay, he's Huo Xiu."

"Save your energy, we'll be relying on you to investigate the situation later."

"Yeah!" Qi Lezhang nodded. His special ability is enhanced hearing.

The tall woman looked back at the sky in the distance and felt that it looked like a dark gray vortex with purple lightning constantly running through the sky and the earth.

Her fingertips tightened, almost digging into her palms.

Experts speculate that the early arrival of this zombie wave is due to the evolution of a zombie king among the zombie group.

Level ten.

He even broke through the highest level of psychics.

They walked like this for seven or eight hours.

Maybe it was because they were getting farther and farther away from Ji Yang, but Qi Lezhang could hardly hear the thunder anymore.

The sky was clearing up, and the long-lost sun appeared in the distance.

A buzzing sound came from the air, and Qi Lezhang was the first to raise his head.

Helicopter!

His heart couldn't help but beat wildly!

Helicopters appear for only two reasons.

One is that City Lord Huo and his men successfully stopped the zombie tide, or led them off their course, so that they could return to the Ji Yang base.

The second is defeat, which means they all have to die.

It is still ten days' journey from here to the Xinglan base. People cannot keep moving forward without food or water, but zombies can.

"Success! We succeeded! The zombie tide has been defeated!"

The helicopter was still circling when the wind-type mutant inside jumped out of the hatch.

The wind brought the news of victory to everyone's ears.

But Qi Lezhang heard the cry in his voice.

Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, his heart skipped a beat.

"Zong Yuxin! What happened?" Jin Lan was agile and came to his side quickly.

"The Zombie King is dead! But Brother Huo, Brother Huo..." Zong Yuxin sobbed, "They died together!"

Qi Lezhang's fingers that were pushing away the crowd suddenly stopped.

After a moment, he raised his hand and touched it, and found that the tears on his face had begun to freeze.

——

When Huo Xiu opened his eyes, he found himself in a small wooden house.

He subconsciously reached for his waist, but found nothing.

He paused.

Because he didn't know what he was looking for, nor did he know why he was here.

The only thing he remembered in his mind was the name Huo Xiu.

The room was not big, the doors and windows were closed, and the light was dim.

But you can still see that the interior decoration is warm and comfortable.

The curtains are made of light yellow velvet, there is an upside-down book on the wooden table, and there are lilies with dewdrops in the vase.

The kitchen was clean and tidy, and the dishes were exquisite, but there was no food stored.

Huo Xiu stood up and went to the kitchen first, pulling out a sharp knife from the knife cabinet.

He moved very quietly and made no sound.

As the sharp knife turned, a pair of narrow and sharp black eyes were reflected on the sharp blade.

He stopped for a moment. There was no sound outside the house.

He pushed open the door and saw a large flower garden.

Patches of lilies spread out quietly, white waves undulating with the wind, each flower is extremely beautiful, emitting a faint, intoxicating fragrance.

His first reaction was that this was inappropriate.

This knee-high plant neither provides any cover nor slows down evacuation.

At the same time, precious land resources need to be used for farming.

The thought flashed through my mind.

The next moment, Huo Xiu heard the sound of flapping wings.

Not birds.

More like...insects.

Huo Xiu judged that it was quite large by the sound of its wings vibrating.

It landed on the roof.

If there is a door, don't go through it, go through the roof.

He comes with ill intentions.

He subconsciously raised his right hand and heard a loud 'boom'.

A bolt of lightning suddenly struck, and then the object that was struck fell from the roof.

When Huo Xiu walked out of the house, he saw an alien with two pairs of wings lying on the ground in a hapless manner, baring its teeth and yelling.

He has a human body, but two pairs of wings suddenly grow on his back. The front wings are leathery, while the hind wings are relatively transparent, and there are blue-purple electric currents flashing on them.

The half-human, half-insect creature had a strange expression. His brows were furrowed, but his mouth was wide open, as if in pain, but also like... pleasure.

Accompanied by a crackling sound, one blue-purple lightning after another quickly left the alien's wings and attacked towards Huo Xiu.

Huo Xiu stood there without moving.

They were seen circling around him like snakes, and some were wrapped around his fingers, very intimately.

The process lasted for two seconds before they disappeared reluctantly.

"Tsk, didn't they say there would be updates to the romance section here?" Before the alien could finish his words, a pair of sparkling green eyes met Huo Xiu's black eyes, and his voice suddenly dropped.

Huo Xiu didn't know what this thing was.

But he didn't attack the alien again.

Because he obviously looks like a higher life form with thinking and intelligence.

But the next moment, Huo Xiu took back his comment.

Because this alien actually crawled up from the ground, its bright green eyes staring straight at Huo Xiu.

"Oh my, they're indeed ancient Zerg, they look really impressive!"

Before he finished speaking, he flapped his wings violently and approached in an instant, with the edges of his wings showing a sharp metallic luster.

Huo Xiu sneered, and a ball of blue-purple lightning gathered in his hand. He flicked his fingertips, and the lightning ball instantly turned into several small but deadly lightning bolts, shuttling through the air like snakes.

At the moment of being hit, a virtual interface popped up in front of Huo Xiu's eyes.

There is a status bar in the upper right corner of the interface.

HP: 2/100

Thunder Energy: 7/100

Satiety: 1/100

Intimacy: ? ? / ? ?

Tip: Your satiety is low, please get food quickly.

(When the satiety reaches 0, the health will decrease by 1 point every 20 minutes, and the player will die when the health reaches 0.)

(When using thunder energy to attack, every 20 thunder energy points consumes 5 points of satiety.)

The interface only popped up for a moment, and when it completely disappeared, Huo Xiu felt the invisible barrier between him and the world disappear. In that instant, it was like the bubble that enveloped him shattered, and he gained more perception.

He felt extremely hungry and dizzy.

Huo Xiu staggered a step and leaned against the wooden house.

The alien was a little surprised to see that the male insect that was like a god of death just now could only stand against the wall. He raised his eyebrows, and his emerald eyes were full of interest.

"Wasn't it quite impressive just now?"

"Oh - I understand, the ancient male insect in distress, and me who stood up." He shrugged, his eyes falling on the male insect's thin lips that were slightly opened when he gasped.

The color is really light.

"What a cheesy show."

"But who says...you are so beautiful?"

He walked up and reached out to hold the black-haired male insect's shoulders.

The next moment, he was pushed against the wall.

The sharp blade was against his throat.

He heard the black-haired male insect whisper.

"food."

The blade felt cold as it entered the skin.

The alien with platinum hair smiled instead of being afraid.

A pair of bright green eyes burst into amazing light.

"There's a rumor that 'Euphemia' provides data support for the romance section, but I didn't believe it at first."

"Now I believe it."

"You are really my type, man."

Huo Xiu watched the alien's mouth opening and closing in front of him, but all he could hear were a few unclear words and a continuous buzzing sound.

The satiety level in the upper right corner has dropped to 0.

According to the previous reminder, he only has 40 minutes.

At this moment, a small piece of candy appeared out of thin air in the alien's palm.

The alien smiled, and suddenly spun out from Huo Xiu's restraints, leaving a line of blood on his neck with the sharp tip of the knife.

But he didn't care at all.

“Ah~”

As he spoke, he reached out and pinched Huo Xiu's face.

The candy was put into Huo Xiu's mouth.

The satiety level jumped from 0 to 5 in a very considerate way.

Huo Xiu slapped the alien's hand away.

The alien wasn't angry either. He curled his lips and said, "You've eaten everything and don't recognize any more insects, right?"

Huo Xiu frowned.

He didn't like the alien's frivolous tone, but he did help him.

"I'll pay you back."

The alien laughed out loud, and just now an option to buy sugar cubes popped up on his interface.

A small piece, 100 star coins.

I have to say that "Godless World" is quite good at making money.

And the virtual male insect in this game actually told himself that he would pay back the money.

"Promise yourself to me?"

“…”

Before Huo Xiu could electrocute him, the alien changed his tone and began to introduce himself.

"Hello Huo Xiu, my name is Kaka, but you can also call me dear——"

"Because I'm your...fiancé."
