Card Room - 160

【Chapter 207, Doomsday Escape 12】

It was already dark when everyone had checked the information and prepared the supplies.

Xiao Lou looked out the window. The street lights on the street were still on. The Zerg obviously hadn’t had time to destroy the circuit system of the city. He asked Yu Hanjiang, “Should we go to the east of the city overnight or wait until dawn?”

Yu Hanjiang thought for a while, and said: “Let’s explore the habits of the Zerg race first. It is not yet known whether they will rest or be more active after dark.”

After all, this kind of zerg is very strange to everyone.

Not sure if they are more aggressive at night, what if they are more excited bugs at night? Walking at night is simply looking for death. Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you pass the customs better.

Yu Hanjiang glanced across the crowd, and said, “Come on, a few fast-moving people, follow me to find the way.”

Liu Qiao, Ye Qi, Long Sen, and Qu Wanyue raised their hands one after another, and Shao Qingge said, “I copied the teleport card, and I can go.”

Xiao Lou had the acceleration shoes given by Yu Hanjiang in his hand. However, Xiao Lou’s own running speed was too slow, and he might not be able to run bugs even after accelerating five times. Yu Hanjiang thought for a while, it is better to copy another displacement card and let him bring Xiao Go upstairs together.

He looked at Shao Qingge and said, “Mr. Shao, copy a light power card to me.”

Shao Qingge rubbed his temples helplessly and said: “My [Wealthy and Willful] skill requires 5 million gold coins to copy a card, and a secret room can only be copied twice, and the same card cannot be copied.”

Yu Hanjiang said calmly: “It doesn’t matter, you can return to the main city to make money after spending the money. It is important to clear the 8 of spades first.”

Now that the captain had said so, Shao Qingge was content to lose out, and copied a piece of Liu Qiao’s [Light as a Swallow] and gave it to him.

After everyone prepared the cards, Yu Hanjiang simply said: “This time the path is to explore the habits of the Zerg. Everyone has invisibility cloaks and displacement cards. Try not to disturb them, let alone confront them. . Leave after the investigation, don’t fall in love with it.”

After speaking, he simply gestured to everyone, walked to the entrance of the decoration company, and opened the iron door.

The eight people quickly stepped out to go out, and Lao Mo locked the iron door behind them.

Outside the door, street lights illuminate the entire city.

The streets are empty, most of the small shops are closed, and although the doors of the shopping mall are open, no one can be seen.

In a single day, the originally lively and bustling city center has almost turned into an empty city.

From time to time, there was the rustling sound of rats gnawing garbage bags. Yu Hanjiang watched the surroundings vigilantly. Not far away, a fat mouse saw them and immediately fled out and disappeared around the garbage can.

There are stray cats and stray dogs searching for food in the trash can. They are used to seeing people coming and going and are not afraid of humans. After seeing Yu Hanjiang, the stray dog barked twice. ——But there is no sign of attacking them.

Yu Hanjiang lowered his voice: “It seems that the Zerg only infects humans and has no effect on these animals.”

The eight people walked forward quickly.

Those people who were basking in the sun and taking pictures on the square at noon today were infected and some died on the side of the road. The eyes of the corpses were drenched with blood, and the ground nearby was mottled with blood. Some people become infected, chasing and biting other normal humans.

At this time, the sky above the square of the University of Science and Technology was empty, and a cold wind blew by, and everyone was shivering.

Yu Hanjiang said: “They should have planned to invade the entire city, chasing and biting the aboriginal people. There are no prey in the square, so they moved their targets. Nearby residential areas, shopping malls, commercial centers, food courts, these people Places where traffic is concentrated will definitely produce a large number of mutated Zergs, and you must be careful when you act.”

Ye Qi quickly took out the flute in the card bag and looked over his head.

At the moment he raised his head, a Zerg suddenly swooped down from the air-it turned out that it had been lying on the street lamp at the edge of the square. The light at night was too dim. It was wearing a pure black suit, almost melting with the night. For the sake of oneness, it’s just that those scarlet eyes exuded a piercing cold light in the dark night, staring straight at Ye Qi.

Ye Qi burst into foul language and immediately played the flute. As expected, the Zerg was held in place by the sound of the flute. Yu Hanjiang took out the 17-style pistol from the card package, equipped with a silencer, and blasted the opponent’s head with a single shot!

Xiao Lou clenched his fist nervously: “Will it not be integrated and upgraded?”

Yu Hanjiang stared at the man in the suit who fell on the ground coldly, and said: “The premise of fusion is that a partner can fuse him. Within a hundred meters, there is only one Zerg. I want to see if I can kill him if he is alone. They have to die.”

The man who fell on the ground was supposed to be an executive of a certain company before he was infected. He was dressed in a suit and leather shoes with a briefcase in his hand. Like the headshot man in the supermarket, countless black spider-like objects crawled out of the blood.

However, because there were no other parasites around for them to merge and upgrade, and they couldn’t directly infect the Xiaolou four, those zergs quickly collapsed like they were drained of energy, and there was no movement after two squeaks.

Ye Qi was disgusting when he saw these things at first, and he got used to seeing them too much. He stared at the group of things curiously and said, “I don’t move, it seems to be dead, right?”

Xiao Lou thoughtfully: “It seems that the singular Zergs are very easy to kill. As long as the Zergs are driven out of the human body, they will not survive. In the future, they can find ways to separate the Zergs and destroy them one by one.”

Of course, this method is only useful in small-scale encounters. Once it encounters more than twenty Zerg collective actions, it is difficult to kill them one by one.

Yu Hanjiang analyzed: “This kind of zerg should be a social animal, the more the more the stronger, it is not enough to be afraid of one or two alone.”

Several others nodded in agreement.

Today, because of the large number of Zergs in the supermarket, upgrading and merging have brought a lot of trouble to everyone. If there are only one or two, it is not terrible.

Social animals, this judgment makes everyone’s backs hairy.

The square is empty, which seems to confirm Yu Hanjiang’s speculation-they are likely to hide in those buildings, staying together in groups, and the few scattered on the street may have lost their way and failed to keep up with the big troops.

This also means that once everyone encounters the Zerg, it will be an extremely terrifying number!

Xiao Lou said: “Night does not seem to affect them?”

Yu Hanjiang said: “Most insects like to appear at night. I guess that the night will not affect their actions, but will make their eyesight and hearing more acute. Just now, if Xiaoye had been prepared for it, it might have fallen down. Lobular.”

Ye Qi looked at the dark thing on the ground with a lingering fear, and said: “It may have been staring at us, and will only attack when we get closer. Fortunately, I react quickly!”

Humans are accustomed to move during the day and rest at night, but small animals such as cockroaches and mice, including this unknown zerg, prefer the night. The dark night will be even more dangerous for the challenger.

It’s not sensible to cross half of the city overnight to the east of the city. It’s best to act during the day, but Yu Hanjiang still wants to take the opportunity to investigate the Zerg gathering place, and you can avoid the Zerg army when you move tomorrow.

Thinking of this, he said to his teammates too shortly: “Everyone puts on the cloak of invisibility. We have 30 minutes to touch the surrounding shopping malls, food courts and other places to see where the Zerg population is the most, so that we can be sure of tomorrow’s Course of action.”

Ye Qi suggested: “After putting on the cloak of invisibility, the Zerg can’t see us, right? The cloak only lasts for 30 minutes. It may not be too late to check so many places. Should we just split up?”

Xiao Lou was a little worried: “If you act separately, if you encounter danger, you will be easily infected if you are weak.”

Ye Qi said earnestly: “I have stealth cards and teleport cards. The Zerg can’t see or catch me, so it should be fine. The big deal is when I run into a batch of Zergs.”

Liu Qiao followed: “Me too. I can put on the invisibility cloak and jump lightly on the top of the building. No matter how fast they are, they can’t compare with me looking for a place to fly in the air.”

Long Sen said: “I and Wanyue’s self-protection ability is okay. Before the bugs find us, we can directly open the invisibility cloak and use the long jump master to run, jumping 8 meters at a time, and the bugs can’t catch up.”

Yu Hanjiang frowned and said nothing.

Ye Qi scratched his head, his clear eyes filled with seriousness: “Although our strength is not as good as Team Yu,… we can’t always rely on Team Yu to protect, right? We want to help too.”

Liu Qiao said earnestly: “Yes, we are only class A secret room now. We have to pass the class S secret room. If the class A secret room is afraid to investigate, when we arrive at the Class S secret room, have we been hiding behind Team Yu?”

Long Sen nodded like garlic: “That’s right, it’s only 30 minutes of invisibility. Eight of us are investigating a place. It’s too wasteful. Don’t worry, Team Yu. With the help of the cloak, we can protect ourselves!”

The others looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

Yu Hanjiang thought about it carefully—they were right, it is impossible to protect everyone by themselves, everyone must learn to protect themselves. It’s only 8 of spades. If you can’t protect yourself, what about the more difficult jacks of spades and kings of spades?

It’s also time to practice the action ability and courage of the players.

The cloak of invisibility can not only hide the figure, but also hide the smell. The invisibility time of 30 minutes will become transparent air, and the Zerg will not be able to detect it. With various displacement cards, if it still can’t escape… it’s really too bad. NS!

Yu Hanjiang looked at several teammates.

Since the teammates are so courageous, Yu Hanjiang didn’t want to dampen everyone’s self-confidence. He simply said: “Okay, I will arrange groups now. Liu Qiao, Qu Wanyue, Long Sen, all three of you have cards that can jump and fly. , Is responsible for this large high-rise residential area on the east side of the square. Check the movement of the Zerg from the air. The three of you are best to act together and take care of each other. Don’t be too far apart.”

The three nodded immediately: “Understood!”

Yu Hanjiang continued: “Mr. Shao, Ye Qi, and Lao Mo, you can check the financial center and office buildings. These buildings have a large number of companies and banking institutions. I need a rough picture of the survival rate and infection rate of office workers.”

Ye Qi said, “No problem!”

Yu Hanjiang looked at Xiaolou: “Let’s check the shopping plaza and the food city.”

Xiao Lou naturally had no objection and nodded.

Yu Hanjiang whispered: “Attention, use the displacement card to retreat immediately when you encounter danger, check the situation of the Zerg within 25 minutes, come back here to meet, don’t love to fight, if you encounter trouble that can’t be solved, directly throw the night pearl or lantern to the neighborhood Teammate signal!”

Everyone nodded: “Understood.”

Yu Hanjiang waved his hand: “Action!”

The eight people were divided into three teams, put on invisibility cloaks, quickly dived into the night, and quickly searched in three directions.

Even if the Zerg has no blind spots in 360 degrees and has a keen sense of smell, it will not be able to detect everyone’s presence.

Unfortunately, the cloak of invisibility card can only be used once a day, and it can only last for 30 minutes at a time. It can be used to investigate the enemy’s situation tonight, and it must be planned and used tomorrow. It can save lives at critical moments.

After the teammates had left, Yu Hanjiang gently hugged Xiao Lou’s waist and said calmly, “I will take you away.”

Xiao Lou Ergen became enthusiastic, and said: “Can the Qinggong card take people to fly? I don’t remember that Liu Qiao’s card has this skill…”

Yu Hanjiang whispered: “The cards are not allowed, I can.”

With a little effort on his arm, Xiao Lou was brought up.

Xiao Lou is too light. He picked up Xiao Lou and it was much easier than running at the police academy with a sack on his back. Xiao Lou only felt that his waist was tight, and the man’s sturdy arms took him into his arms so easily, followed by turning on the Qing Gong card, and flying quickly into the sky.

Xiao Lou: “…”

The whistling wind sounded in the ears, and they couldn’t see each other when they opened the invisibility cloaks, but the strength of Yu Hanjiang’s arms could be clearly felt at the waist. When Yu Hanjiang hugged his waist and flew lightly, Xiao Lou only felt his heart beating like a drum.

To avoid falling, he had to stretch out his hand and gently grabbed Yu Hanjiang’s arm.

At his feet is a dark city full of dangers. Yu Hanjiang is flying above the city with the help of buildings—the card is as light as a swallow. After reaching the full level, it is enough to find the landing point within 8 seconds. When Mr. Shao copied the card, Liu Qiao’s card was already at full level, so the distance to fly in the air was very long.

An 8-second floating flight can cover almost all the buildings on both sides of the street. In addition, Yu Hanjiang’s long legs make it easy to find the landing spot. He is like a flying geese, floating and jumping lightly above the buildings.

Suddenly, Xiao Lou had the illusion of shooting a martial arts blockbuster with Team Yu.

After the two flew for a while, Yu Hanjiang chose to land in the shopping plaza.

This five-storey shopping plaza should gather a large number of humans. If more than 80% of the people are infected, it will become a zerg’s nest, and the rest will not be able to escape. Yu Hanjiang just wanted to determine whether the shopping plaza was a gathering place for Zerg. If it is, they can avoid this area when they withdraw to Chengdong District tomorrow.

When he landed at the entrance of the shopping center, Yu Hanjiang let go of Xiao Lou’s waist and said in his mind: “Go in and take a look.”

The two walked into the shopping center together.

To their surprise, the first floor was actually empty.

The whole mall was brightly lit, but no one was visible. The doors of the shops selling clothes and drinks were open, but the clerk in the shop was nowhere to be found. The escalator in the mall was running as usual, going up and down, but there was no one on the escalator. At first glance, it seemed to have entered a ghost town.

Like the supermarket, the temperature in the mall is very low, and obviously the heating is turned off.

Yu Hanjiang’s voice resounded in Xiao Lou’s mind: “Come with me, go upstairs and have a look.”

The two took the elevator upstairs together.

The second floor, the third floor, the fourth floor…

All are empty, no one can be seen.

Xiao Lou said in his mind doubtfully: “Such a big shopping mall, there should be a lot of talents at noon. As long as they are attacked, the Zerg will spread and spread quickly. Why can’t even see an infected person? Where did they go? ”

Yu Hanjiang frowned and said, “It’s not right here, be careful.”

The two took the ladder to the fifth floor.

Looking around, he still didn’t see the infected person. At this moment, Xiao Lou’s forehead was cold, and it felt like rain dripped on his forehead when it rained. Xiao Lou raised his head in confusion. Stiff, the hairs all over the body are going to stand up-

I saw that the ceiling on the fifth floor was crowded with people!

Some of them wore the costumes of store staff, while others were customers who came to the store. Old people, young people, children, countless people, all climbed on the ceiling, motionless!

They were close to each other one by one, with their hands and feet clasped on the ceiling, the scarlet eyes on their heads protruding slightly like the eyes of insects, turning around greedily.

The scene of large humanoid infected persons crawling on the roof made Xiao Lou frightened. In case the group of insects suddenly fell from the ceiling, he and Yu Hanjiang would be instantly submerged by the zerg, and there is no way to avoid it!

Fortunately, the two walked in wearing invisibility cloaks. If they didn’t use the invisibility cloak to hide their figure and smell, the consequences would be unimaginable.

When Yu Hanjiang saw this scene, his face suddenly sank, he immediately hugged Xiao Lou, and whispered in his mind: “Go!”

Xiao Lou turned around and followed Yu Hanjiang.

His heart almost popped out of his chest. Such a horrible scene was even more terrifying than any science fiction movie he had ever watched. Fortunately, he did not have a intensive phobia, otherwise this scene would scare people into weakness.

The two quickly evacuated the mall, and Yu Hanjiang flew up with Xiao Lou lightly, and in a blink of an eye he arrived at the Food City.

Unlike all the Zergs in the shopping mall climbing on the ceiling, all the Zergs in the Food City are crawling on the ground… The whole street is full of people, and those people are moving slowly, their scarlet eyes are shooting around, seeming to search for nearby No fish slipped through the net.

The original lively food street has directly become the territory of the Zerg!

Xiao Lou didn’t know what to say, and said to Yu Hanjiang in his mind: “It seems that no one is spared in the whole street. We can’t go here when we evacuate tomorrow.”

Yu Hanjiang nodded: “Go back as soon as possible, don’t disturb them.”

The number of Zergs is too scary. The dense crowd is even scarier than the railway station during the Spring Festival. What’s more, they all climb on the ground or the ceiling. The scene is simply the nemesis of the intensive phobia, which makes the scalp numb!

Yu Hanjiang quickly returned to the square with Xiao Lou. The time for the cloak of invisibility hadn’t arrived. He didn’t release the invisibility state. He only placed a collective Kongming lantern in the middle and summoned everyone to come.

Shao Qingge, Ye Qi and Lao Mo also returned. Ye Qi asked in a low voice, “Team Yu?”

Yu Hanjiang’s deep voice sounded in his ears; “I am here, how is the situation?”

Ye Qi came near the Kongming Lantern, and Hui reported: “We went to the Financial Building. There are a large number of companies and companies in this office building. Countless white-collar workers have all been infected. They are crowded in the lobby on the first floor!”

Lao Mo added: “Their bodies are almost close to each other, which is disgusting to look at.”

Humans prefer to give themselves some independent space. Crowded places, especially the squeezing of the front chest to the back can make humans irritable, but the Zerg is different. They like to be close to their companions, and they also like to crowd in large numbers. In the same space, perhaps this will make them feel more secure.

Xiao Lou analyzed: “It’s probably crowded together to facilitate upgrading?”

Ye Qi’s lips trembled slightly: “It’s terrible. There should be thousands of infected people in the lobby. The entire office building is like a Zerg meeting. If we don’t wear invisibility cloaks and enter, then It’s definitely a dead end!”

Yu Hanjiang asked in a low voice, “Where are Liu Qiao and the others?”

Ye Qi said: “It seems that you haven’t come back yet?”

Everyone is wearing invisibility cloaks, can’t see each other, can only tell by sound.

Yu Hanjiang was worried about whether Liu Qiao and the others would have an accident, but within a minute, Qu Wanyue’s voice rang in his ear, and he trembled slightly: “Are you there?”

Yu Hanjiang said: “Yes, how about your side?”

Qu Wanyue breathed a sigh of relief, and said: “We wanted to jump up to check the situation of several residential buildings, but we didn’t expect that… the infected people in the entire community were all concentrated on the square in the community.”

Liu Qiaomu said with a face: “Furthermore, the speakers on the square are still amplifying the songs of moms dancing square dances. It should be turned off before evening. There should be more than 1,000 residents in the community we went to. Roughly speaking, the infected people. More than 2,000 people.”

Long Sen scolded: “This group of insects is so perverted! Listening to the music of the square dance, lying motionless on the square of the community, just like a non-fa-gathering meeting. If there were no insects moving, I would even Be suspicious, they will applaud and listen to the leader’s speech in the next moment!”

Everyone: “…”

Long Sen’s joke is not funny, everyone just feels that the bottom of my heart is hairy.

Zergs, social animals, like to stay together in large groups.

It seems that there are not many surviving aboriginal residents in this area of the central square, and places with high traffic such as shopping malls, financial buildings, and food courts have all been infected.

In the residential area, some residents who did not go out today might still survive for a few days if they hide in their homes with the doors and windows closed. It is just that they can see thousands of people lying together in the square downstairs from the windows. Will be scared to death.

Xiao Lou said with a calm face: “Long Sen is right. In the insect swarm, there may be leaders calling them.”

Everyone looked at Xiao Lou. The latter took a deep breath and said in a low voice: “They are gathered together in groups. Maybe a leader is instilling instructions for their next actions. For example, the ant colony is going to move. At that time, the queen will give some instructions to the ants.”

Ye Qi’s eyes lit up: “Yes! The scene I saw in the Financial Building looked like a swarm of insects in a meeting!”

It seems that the Zerg will have a large-scale operation tonight?

As he was thinking about it, Yu Hanjiang suddenly said: “Danger, everyone, get out!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately hugged Xiao Lou’s waist and flew Xiao Lou to the opposite street with a light skill card.

Other teammates also used displacement cards to escape.

The next moment… I saw countless zergs suddenly pouring out!

Densely densely infected people, from shopping malls, food courts, financial buildings and other buildings, poured out like a tide. They were on all fours, using hands and feet together, and crawling frantically to the nearby residential area. That scene showed Xiaolou. They are terrified!

It turned out that the Zerg wanted to completely occupy this area. At present, only the residential area has some fish that slip through the net, and they don’t want to let them go. Therefore, they decided to suppress the territory and encircle the entire residential area in a blink of an eye.

Yu Hanjiang’s face was extremely ugly: “Everyone, go back and pack up, we will leave here immediately!”

Unexpectedly, the Zerg will collectively attack the residential area at night, taking advantage of their full attack time, everyone must evacuate as quickly as possible, otherwise, by tomorrow morning, the city center will have become the world of Zerg, they will It will be difficult.

Thinking of the serious consequences, everyone used displacement cards to quickly return to Lao Mo’s decoration company.

Lao Mo opened the door, everyone went in and carried their schoolbags, took pesticides, lighters, medicine boxes and other supplies, and ran directly under the leadership of Yu Hanjiang!

Everyone’s goal is Seongdong District.

At the logistics distribution center, I hope that there will not be too many infected people there, and everyone prays silently in their hearts.
