Zhao Yue stood on the snake's head.
After he sensed the python leaving the building, he searched inside the building for a while before finding a window and jumped out through the broken window.
Because of the flames, there were many burn marks on his body, and his clothes were burned to pieces.
Looking at the family of three below him, Zhao Yue jumped off the snake's head.
"You're okay for now."
Zhao Yue walked up to Luo Sheng and said softly.
Luo Sheng raised his head with sobs and looked at Zhao Yue with tears in his eyes.
His family almost died in the mouth of the giant python.
The five-year-old son blinked his eyes full of curiosity when he saw Zhao Yue.
"Thank you, thank you hero."
Luo Sheng suddenly held the child in his arms and bowed to Zhao Yue on the ground.
His wife Yang Yin next to him also knelt down and kowtowed to Zhao Yue to thank him.
"I can't repay my life-saving grace, I can only kowtow to express my gratitude!"
Zhao Yue had never knelt down before. Seeing this, he immediately reached out and pulled the two of them up.
"It doesn't have to be like this!"
This was Zhao Yue's first time saving someone, which suddenly gave him an inexplicable feeling.
Seeing these people survive, his heart beat faster involuntarily.
Just as the two of them were pulled up by Zhao Yue, the top of the giant python's head suddenly began to squirm.
A red, crystal-like fleshy object emerged from the python's head.
It quickly slid from the top of the python's head down its nose to the ground, making a slight sound.
Zhao Yue had keen hearing, and the sound behind him alerted him, and he turned around immediately.
He saw a red fleshy crystal jumping towards him.
"Infectious matter!"
Zhao Yue was shocked. He had seen several infectious agents and was absorbed by the infectious agents himself. He knew this very well.
Seeing the red fleshy crystal infection jumping towards him, Zhao Yue knew without thinking that this thing definitely wanted to attach itself to him and live in symbiosis with him.
There is still an infection in his body that has not been resolved. Letting another infection coexist is no different from seeking death.
Zhao Yue immediately took off his backpack. There were still a lot of supplies and changes of clothes in the backpack, so he could only throw away some to make room for the infectious agents.
The symbiosis of infected objects is scary, but it can also bring powerful abilities, which Zhao Yue understands deeply.
As the infected object approached, Zhao Yue seized the opportunity and shook his backpack into the air, then quickly closed the backpack and put the infected object into the backpack.
If ordinary people come into contact like this, the probability of infection must be extremely high.
However, Zhao Yue himself was already infected, so he was not afraid of this.
Luo Sheng watched blankly as Zhao Yue put this strange thing into his backpack. Seeing his cautious expression, he immediately understood that this thing might not be a good thing.
"alright."
Zhao Yue breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Luo Sheng's family. He didn't know their next plan.
The giant python has now been solved, but Zhao Yue understands that the giant python is just one of the monsters that appeared in City B.
Zhao Yue had used life perception to detect before and found that there were three more life auras with similar intensity as this giant python.
Now it seems that the three breaths of life should refer to three monsters.
Now that the giant red python with black edges is dead, there are still two monsters alive.
But he didn't know when these two monsters would appear.
Zhao Yue was planning to leave now. After all, killing this monster had saved many people.
As for what happens next, it really depends on their own lives. Zhao Yue can't always protect them.
And they may not want to protect themselves now. After all, when Zhao Yue appeared in front of them for the first time, the way they looked at them was no different from looking at a monster.
Who is willing to accept the protection of a monster?
Seeing Zhao Yue about to leave, Luo Sheng's expression was obviously a little panicked. He didn't know what dangers there would be next. Seeing Zhao Yue's strength, he hoped to be with Zhao Yue, so that he could at least ensure the safety of his family.
"Hero, wait."
Luo Sheng suddenly called out to Zhao Yue. His expression was obviously a little awkward. It was a bit hard to say that he asked for someone's protection for no reason.
But for the safety of his wife and children, he hesitated and made his request: "Hero, my family wants to go to the park in front. Do you think you can..."
He didn't finish his words, he just looked at Zhao Yue nervously.
He didn't know how Zhao Yue would reply to him.
Most likely it will be rejection.
He thought in despair.
Zhao Yue looked at him calmly, and he heard what Luo Sheng meant.
He was extremely unwilling to protect others. Except for his own relatives and people around him, Zhao Yue was unwilling to provide any help to a stranger.
But when Zhao Yue saw the five-year-old child in Luo Sheng's hands, Zhao Yue finally relented.
"Okay, follow me."
Zhao Yue suddenly agreed. Luo Sheng's expression was disappointed at first, then surprised and excited.
He didn't expect that Zhao Yue would agree.
"And don't call me a hero in the future, I'm not a hero."
"You can call me Mr. Zhao."
Zhao Yue exhaled and bent slightly, feeling helpless.
He has absolutely no connection with the word hero.
When thousands of people were infected in Vault 3, he showed no mercy.
Zhao Yue put on his backpack again and prepared to take the lead. He was not very familiar with City B, but he had been to the nearby park before, so he knew the route without looking at the navigation.
Just when Zhao Yue was about to take Luo Sheng's family to set off.
A dozen people suddenly appeared on the nearby road.
They had seen the giant python coming this way before and hid nearby in fear.
After seeing Zhao Yue kill the giant python, they cautiously poked their heads out and observed the conversation between Zhao Yue and Luo Sheng.
Zhao Yue's life perception had long discovered these people, but he didn't want to care about them. They didn't pose any threat to Zhao Yue, they were just a group of ordinary people.
When they heard that Zhao Yue promised to protect Luo Sheng's family when they went to the park, they came out one after another.
There was begging on his face, hoping that Zhao Yue would take them with him.
Zhao Yue frowned slightly, these people were both male and female, and protecting Luo Sheng's family was already against his will.
What's more, Zhao Yue didn't want to care about so many more people.
"Hero, please let us come with you."
Seeing Zhao Yue's cold eyes and his steps not stopping, the dozen or so people suddenly knelt down.
He kowtowed to Zhao Yue's position and begged, his voice filled with tears.
They were really scared, from the continuous gunshots at first to the monsters they encountered now.
Every situation breaks their previous understanding and makes them feel that they are always on the verge of death.
The appearance of Zhao Yue made them feel like they saw a life-saving straw.
Luo Sheng wanted to say something, but he just thought that Zhao Yue agreed to protect them for a while, which was already a blessing, and he did not dare to ask Zhao Yue for anything else.
Zhao Yue continued walking forward without any intention of stopping.
The Luosheng family lowered their heads and followed Zhao Yue closely.
Seeing this, the dozen or so people stood up quickly and followed Zhao Yue silently, not daring to get too close.
Zhao Yue didn't care about the group of people behind him, they just followed him if they wanted.
The park is not too far from here. Zhao Yue has been activating life perception along the way. He is worried that monsters will suddenly appear nearby.
Suddenly, Zhao Yue stopped when he was about to reach the park.
Luo Sheng and the others looked up at Zhao Yue with blank eyes.
"We can't stay in this park. There are monsters in it."
Zhao Yue didn't look good. When he came near the park, he immediately sensed the situation inside.
There are five more gray life breaths inside, and the intensity of the breath is not low.
It means that there are undoubtedly five infected monsters in the park.
And the most important thing is that these five infection breaths are completely different from the previous three life breaths. They are five new monsters.
How could so many monsters suddenly appear in City B?
Zhao Yue was confused, but now was not the time for calm analysis. He needed to change direction immediately before the monsters discovered them.
"Are there any monsters in the park?"
Luo Sheng and Yang Yin turned pale. They didn't expect there were monsters in the park.
As for how Zhao Yue discovered the monster, although they found it mysterious, they believed he was telling the truth. After all, there would be weird tentacles coming out of his back.
A little more mystery and they won't feel weird.
"Then where else can we take refuge?"
Luo Sheng asked hurriedly, and he unconsciously regarded Zhao Yue as his backbone.
There were more than ten people behind him not far away, and they quickly noticed Zhao Yue's abnormality.
The park is right in front, why don't you leave?
They were confused, but no one dared to come forward to ask. They could only guess that there might be something wrong with the park.
Zhao Yue lowered his head and thought, the earthquake has not appeared yet, maybe it has really subsided.
With so many monsters suddenly appearing in City B, Zhao Yue felt a little uneasy. He felt that something big was going to happen in City B.
The longer you stay in City B, the greater the possibility of encountering danger.
"If you hadn't taken care of them at that time, you might have left City B long ago, haha..."
The infectious voice suddenly appeared in Zhao Yue's heart.
"Shut up, it's none of your business."
Zhao Yue responded coldly in his heart.
The government must have expected something, and there was no reaction from the army near City B.
However, this is not certain. Perhaps the government did not intend to pay attention to these cities in the first place, and these incidents were unexpected.
No matter what the situation is, it shows that the government will not interfere with ground-level infections now.
Probably preparing to enter the underground city.
Zhao Yue looked around, the sun gradually set in the west, and the sky darkened visibly to the naked eye.
In this case, it is obvious that we cannot continue on our way.
"It's getting dark. Find a place to hide first."
Zhao Yue turned around and said to Luo Sheng's family.
At the same time, he glanced at the dozen or so people behind him, who looked at him with hope.
Zhao Yue sighed in his heart and shouted at them: "If you are willing to continue following, come with me."
The eyes of the dozen or so people lit up, their pace quickened, and they approached Zhao Yue.
The sky was getting darker and darker. Zhao Yue led everyone to a bungalow. This bungalow had only one floor and no one was inside.
The room was messy, probably caused by the earthquake.
Zhao Yue pressed the switch next to the door, but there was no response. The circuit in the bungalow was probably damaged due to the earthquake.
Thoughts of turning on the light were quickly extinguished.
Zhao Yue cooperated with others to search the room. The light couldn't be turned on, so he had to light a fire.
He is not afraid of being discovered by monsters in bright light. His life perception can sense the surrounding three kilometers. Even if a monster comes, he can detect it in advance.
There are many people here, so lighting a fire is both for lighting and the temperature of the fire can make people feel safe.
These people had just experienced life and death, and many of them were still in a state of fear.
The bungalow is not particularly large and has only one bathroom.
There are a lot of steel pipe equipment stored around it. It should have been a shop or warehouse before.
Time passed in the blink of an eye, and with the actions of everyone, a fire was lit in the center of the room.
Zhao Yue sat in a corner leaning against the wall.
The rest of the people sat around the fire and started talking slowly. As the number of people communicating slowly increased, laughter began to appear in the whole room from time to time, which relieved everyone's originally suppressed emotions.
Man is a very strange creature. No matter how horrific and bizarre the events he has experienced before are, as long as he gets a breather, he can quickly adapt to the current changes.
Zhao Yue sat in the corner silently. He could detect the looks from those people on him from time to time. These looks included gratitude and fear.
But no one was willing to take the initiative to walk up to Zhao Yue and have a conversation.
Suddenly, Zhao Yue turned his head and saw a figure walking towards him. It was Luo Sheng's five-year-old son.
"Dad, Dad said to give this to you."
The five-year-old child walked up to Zhao Yue, holding a pendant in his little hand.
Zhao Yue was stunned for a moment and turned to the pendant in his hand.
This pendant is made up of several small round stones overlapping each other, connected by a line through the middle, like a small tower.
"He said this pendant can bring you luck."
The child's voice was childish, and he looked at Zhao Yue with blinking eyes, looking cute and endearing.
Zhao Yue reached out and took the pendant from the child's hand and smiled at him: "Go back and tell your father that I have accepted this pendant."
Watching the child trot back and hide in Yang Yin's arms.
Luo Sheng smiled at Zhao Yue from the side.
He has nothing valuable to give to Zhao Yue now, so he can only give this pendant to express his gratitude.
Zhao Yue took the stone tower-shaped pendant in his hand, looked at it, pulled apart the lines on both sides, and put it on his neck.
As night fell, everyone gradually became tired and fell asleep leaning against the wall or lying on the ground.
Zhao Yue didn't sleep. His current body didn't have many problems even if he didn't sleep for days and nights.
Suddenly, Zhao Yue frowned, stood up, and walked to the door.
He sensed three gray life breaths appearing in that direction.
These three gray life breaths are very close to each other, and they seem to be located at the place where the red and black-edged python died.
This forced Zhao Yue to be more vigilant.
The soft moonlight scattered, Zhao Yue turned to look at the trees on both sides of the street.
Not sure if it was an illusion, but he felt that the trees seemed to be much taller.
"ah!"
A female scream suddenly sounded from inside the bungalow.
Zhao Yue quickly turned around and came to the fire.
I saw a woman trembling against the wall, on the ground opposite her.
The body of a man who was sleeping soundly on the ground suddenly began to twist, and he stood up from the ground tremblingly.
On his body, red spots spread rapidly at an alarming speed.
"Roar!"
The man opened his eyes, their eyes scarlet red.
The people around who were sleeping soundly woke up from their sleep when they heard the woman's scream. They saw the changes in the man's body and looked horrified.
"Stay away from him, he's infected!"
Zhao Yue shouted, and the people around him immediately panicked and ran behind Zhao Yue.
Zhao Yue narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at the infected person.
