Chapter 27 Wasteland
Unexpectedly, Su Xiao’s heart trembled when he saw such a scene. He almost let go of his hand and hurt the little body again.
But she knew very well that this kind of scene at the end of the world would not be the first time she would see it, nor would it be the last.
After calming down briefly, Su Xiao calmly dug up all the stones on the child's body and moved the broken body.
The moment he touched the broken body, a message popped up in front of him: [Infection level 10%]
Lidya Su was slightly startled.
There was no doubt that the child was dead, and his body showed no signs of breathing, but the infection was still there.
What does this mean?
The body was moved to one side, and during the process, another hand was seen deep in the ruins. The hand was broken along the arm, revealing the bones.
Su Xiao took a deep breath, walked over and touched the broken arm.
【Infection level 10%】
It’s still 10%. Yes, the infection rate inexplicably increased this morning was also 10%. So, both the living and the dead will be infected?
Su Xiao didn't have time to think deeply, and the world was devastated as soon as he looked around.
If there were some debris left after the hurricane, the current earthquake has almost shattered all the ruins, and there are not many buildings over 10 meters high left.
In just 32 hours, the entire blue planet became a wasteland.
The number of corpses beneath the ruins will only increase, not decrease.
Given the level of infection on the corpse, will the infection continue to grow tomorrow?
Lidya Su didn’t know.
It seemed that there were no living people around here, and she didn't know how anyone could survive such a disaster without a safe house.
Su Xiao thought about it, picked up the scattered newspapers on the ground, covered the child with them, and then opened his nylon bag.
The bag contained her unswapped cell phone, a power bank, a lighter, a bottle of water, and chocolates to prevent herself from getting into any accidents.
It’s nothing, it’s just that I’ve already seen the child, and I can’t just let him lie on the ground like that.
See if you can light it up and send the kids away.
Who knew that the moment the lighter touched the newspaper and the child's body, it was as if some mechanism was triggered, and it burned instantly without any temperature. After the yellow flame burned out, a yellow treasure chest appeared.
New color treasure chest!
Su Xiao touched the yellow treasure chest without hesitation and clicked to open it.
【Prevention drugs】
[Description: It can clear 20% of the infection level and prevent the virus from killing you]
It turned out to be a medicine!
It turns out that the potion chest is obtained by burning the bodies of the infected!
Then there was another notification in my ear——
[It is detected that you are the first survivor to open the yellow treasure chest in the apocalypse, triggering the treasure chest easter egg. You will get double rewards for every yellow treasure chest you find in the apocalypse]
Su Xiao's eyes flickered slightly, which means that no one has thought of burning the bodies of the survivors yet!
No more hesitation.
I originally thought that I wouldn’t be able to find any resources when I came out, but now this yellow treasure chest is a good thing.
Treasure chests also have levels, and the one Su Xiao opened was a level 1 yellow treasure chest.
Without further hesitation, he began to search through the ruins. With the yellow treasure chest, the corpses were not so scary anymore.
Perhaps because there happened to be a campsite nearby with many people when the earthquake occurred, Su Xiao searched around and found seven or eight bodies from under the rubble in an hour.
Su Xiao thought of the crisis that had quietly arrived mentioned in the notice.
If these dead survivors are not cleaned up, after the infection level reaches 100%, will they turn into mobile zombies and crawl out of the ruins to attack other survivors?
Just like the timed challenge on the first night.
If so, should this information be shared with other survivors?
Su Xiao thought for a moment and burned the bodies.
Five yellow treasure chests appear on the ground.
I was confused for a moment, aren't there 8 bodies? Why are there only 5 treasure chests?
After Su Xiao took it away, he continued to search and finally confirmed the pattern of the treasure chest appearing after the corpse was burned.
That is the integrity of the body.
The potion chest will appear only after the corpse with its head, hands and feet intact is burned.
However, because Su Xiao was too strong, he accidentally damaged two of the bodies while dragging them. Another one seemed to be a survivor of the hurricane rather than the earthquake, and one of its feet and hands were missing.
After finding the pattern, Su Xiao began to carefully move the nearby ruins and debris.
Find the body and burn it.
I was so focused on searching that I didn't notice someone coming from a short distance away.
"Help! Help!"
He only reacted when he heard the cry for help and had to put down the body in his hand.
“Sister, save me!” The woman’s eyes flickered and she noticed Su Xiao’s actions, but she quickly pretended to be scared.
There was another man chasing closely not far away.
Su Xiao quickly took out the axe, aimed at the woman and threatened: "Stay away from me."
The woman looked at Lidya Su and shook her head with tears in her eyes, “Sister, that man is so scary! Please save me!”
As he said that, he was about to hide behind Lidya Su.
Su Xiao quickly moved away. She didn't feel comfortable leaving her back to strangers, but she was now at least 500 meters away from her safe house. If she wanted to leave, she could only abandon the sports car.
But a man with a beard and blue veins below his neck also arrived.
He looked at Lidya Su with a sneer, “This woman is my girlfriend, don’t meddle in her business.”
Lidya Su stepped back silently, indicating that she had no intention of interfering.
"Please save me! I don't know him! He said he could help me, so I went into his safe house!" the woman screamed at the top of her lungs.
The man walked over quickly with a vicious look on his face and grabbed the woman's hair.
"I let you into the safe house, which saved your life! Do you really think there is a free lunch in the world?"
The woman didn't hesitate, picked up the stone on the ground and smashed it on the man's head.
His movements were fierce and he didn't look like an ordinary person at all.
This detail made Su Xiao pause.
"Bang——"
Unexpectedly, the man's head made a crisp sound, but he didn't look injured at all.
Su Xiao reacted and realized that it seemed that this man had passed the limited-time challenge last night and chose the defense attribute.
"Damn! How dare you fight back!" The man kicked the woman hard in anger.
The woman took the opportunity to roll over and dodge, and something fell off her body.
It’s a logo, the logo of the alliance.
Lidya Su’s eyes darkened.
Just as the man was beating the woman, an axe pierced the back of his head.
The man stopped moving, looked incredulous, and slowly fell down.
The woman on the ground covered her waist and abdomen, turned over and moved away from Su Xiao.
Su Xiao took the opportunity to pull back the axe.
One force can break all laws.
Attack is the best defense.
Because of the serious injury on the back of the head, the man soon lost his breath and the toy car fell to the ground.
The woman quickly picked up the toy car and ran away.
Lidya Su spoke faintly.
"If you run again, my axe will fall on you, and you won't be able to take the safe house...Alliance."
