Fortunately, the chief was sent down by Yi Chen to help, otherwise his face would have turned green when he saw the fat man devouring beef like this. He didn't expect that the awkward atmosphere could be resolved so easily.
Yi Chen didn't ask the fat man why he concealed his strength. He just opened two cans of beer and drank with the fat man. Although they had only known each other for a few days, the fat man had a bold personality and could quickly get along with strangers, and he got along well with Yi Chen.
What's more, now that he doesn't have level 1 crystals, he can't be strengthened. It's useless to need level 2 crystals. It's better to exchange them if he just waits. The fat man is quite interesting to him. Just like driving to support before, even though the battle has ended, he is still going to rescue the emergency. , and the level 1 spar just given to him. If he didn't mention it, he might actually give it to Yi Chen. Based on these two points alone, Yi Chen felt that there was nothing wrong with helping the fat man.
The fat man himself was not a good person, and for some reason he couldn't pretend in front of Yi Chen:
"Yi Chen, I know you take care of my face, and I, the fat man, am not an unscrupulous person. If we can get out alive this time, we both have to help!"
After saying that, the fat man fell to the ground and fell asleep on his back.
"Bless me? Alas~"
Yi Chen shook his head. He had not experienced this feeling for a long time, not because of the apocalypse but because he had refrigerated his emotions since his parents died.
Although he seems calm on the surface, in his heart he values family ties more than anyone else. However, he has been unable to let go of his parents' unexpected death. Family ties are a scar that cannot be mentioned easily for Yi Chen!
He knew that the fat man was probably pretending to be drunk to cover up. They were all evolved and their metabolism was several times that of humans. How could such alcohol as beer make them drunk? However, Yi Chen did not expose the fat man and covered him with a blanket. I took the chief down to watch.
After a silent night, we discussed it the next day and decided that Fatty would drive the fire truck. If there were any obstacles on the way, Yi Chen and the other two would be responsible for cleaning up. The strategy for this operation was to go in and out quickly because if there was a slight delay, they might be trapped by the tide of corpses. .
"Sit tight! Bang!"
As the fat man shouted angrily, the fire truck's horsepower was also increased to the maximum. He kicked the accelerator and rushed in through the side door. The huge impact knocked the steel railing door away several meters away, taking the zombies behind the door with it. It was also pressed under the door rail.
Yi Chen urged:
"Quick! Rush over!"
There are only a few hundred of these zombies, but Yi Chen guessed that there may be high-level zombies, and if they are delayed, it will be troublesome. There was no turning back from the beginning of this plan, but now they can't afford to delay, and take advantage of the opportunity when the zombies are attacked. Speed up and rush over.
The fat man was unequivocal. He ran over the bodies of the zombies with great power. A black mist of blood appeared in the rearview mirror. The limbs of the zombies were thrown everywhere by the wheels. The bloody scene was extremely impactful!
"Didn't chase me"
There was a hint of joy in Tian Hong's tone, but Yi Chen frowned. Chen Lei was stunned when he saw that Yi Chen's expression was wrong:
"Yi Chen! What's wrong?"
Although he is young and has no combat experience, after two days of cooperation, he found that Yi Chen's ideas and tactical thinking are different from ordinary people. Especially when Yi Chen and the chief work together, the tacit understanding is like a death harvester.
"It's nothing, I have a bad feeling, let's speed up!"
Yi Chen looked at the rearview mirror thoughtfully. The zombies just stood there staring in this direction and roaring, but there was no sign of catching up:
I hope it’s an illusion! Yi Chen thought so in his mind and gave the chief a wink, indicating that he should be careful later.
Contrary to expectations, the office area was empty and silent. Except for the tables, chairs, benches and garbage discarded during the escape, there was not a single wandering zombie.
Several people were puzzled. How could it be so quiet here with so many zombies outside?
Yi Chen did not relax his vigilance because of the silence here. The calmer the place, the closer it was to the edge of danger. Everyone was silent and there was a trace of depression in the air.
"I'll go! What is that?"
The fat man's exclamation broke the silence in the car, and he saw thick branches and vines lying in the middle of the road at the intersection of the office building and the dormitory area!
Tian Hong pointed at Zhiman and said in surprise:
"What plant can grow such large branches and vines?"
Chen Lei stared at the branches and vines carefully for a while to make sure there was nothing unusual but that the color behind the plants was slightly slower, but he still said cautiously:
"It doesn't matter what kind of plant it is, what matters is whether it is aggressive or not, and what is the risk factor!"
What he said was exactly what Yi Chen was thinking, but what Yi Chen is most concerned about now is whether he can get there:
"The chief and I will go to the front to take a look. Don't get out of your car yet and be careful!"
"Help!"
While several people were discussing, they suddenly heard the sound of a car coming from the dormitory area, followed by a woman's sharp cry for help.
The fat man suddenly couldn't sit still when he heard this cry:
"I'll go! Did someone encounter a zombie?"
Yi Chen thought that they must be other survivors, probably students trying to escape from the dormitory. Maybe they know the news about Professor Lin. Thinking of this, he said without hesitation:
"Drive over!"
The fire truck is powerful enough that these branches and vines should not be able to stop it.
"Buzz!"
The roar of the fire truck was like a wild beast that directly smashed through the branches blocking the intersection. Wood chips flew everywhere under the impact, and the field of vision in front of the intersection suddenly broadened.
Tian Hong first discovered the source of the cry for help and then exclaimed:
"There! Oh my God!"
Yi Chen looked around and saw an unimaginable scene. He saw that the entire dormitory area was covered with branches and vines. The source of the branches was a huge locust tree that was four stories high.
The most terrifying thing is that the locust tree is covered with shriveled corpses. The number of corpses extends to the branches scattered under the tree. At this time, a girl and a small Beetle are hanging upside down on the branches. The girl keeps hanging in mid-air. Struggling and calling for help.
The branches and vines looked lifeless, but when the fire truck approached, they immediately jumped up and stretched towards the front of the fire truck. The fat man hurriedly turned the steering wheel and braked suddenly, stopping in place.
"Ah! Quick! Please help me, quick!"
The girl's face was red and she was shouting anxiously. The blush was not because her miniskirt was exposed but because she was upside down due to congestion. However, no one wanted to admire her now. Chen Lei frowned and said:
"This tree should be a mutated locust tree, a plant mutated under the influence of the apocalypse. I've only heard of it in military seminars, but I didn't expect to encounter it here!"
The mutated locust tree can not only absorb nutrients from the soil, but also attack all living creatures passing by. If you are entangled in its vines, it will be difficult to escape until it absorbs the flesh and blood and turns into withered bones. This tree is so big that it looks like a level 2 mutant locust tree. Tree.
The ability of mutated plants is several times stronger than that of humans and zombies. Their only weakness is that they cannot move, which is also a shackles imposed by the Creator. Otherwise, there will be no other creatures in this world that will become the world of mutated plants!
Several people were horrified to hear that this mutated plant even feeds zombies. What a terrifying creature it is!
The fat man said in a serious tone but with a teasing tone:
"This means that it is wise to try not to get close. Why is this girl so stupid that she climbs a tree to play? Is her brain showing off?"
Yi Chen ignored the fat man's sarcasm:
"Stop talking and save people first!"
It's the same as the previous purpose. If you don't need a gun, don't use it as much as possible. Moreover, the special gun of Zhiman is also difficult to hit. It's best to use cold weapons to cut it.
Several people all took out their daggers. Fatty stayed in the car to provide support at any time. Chen Lei and Tian Hong were responsible for stopping Zhi Man's attack and covering Yi Chen and the chief to rescue people under the tree.
After assigning tasks, several people moved quickly. At this time, the girl was still struggling, but not as fiercely as before. She actually had a dagger in her hand and was constantly trying to cut the branches tied to her legs, but those branches were unusually strong. No matter how hard she used her knife, Chopping is in vain.
Tian Hong saw the girl's movements and hurriedly stopped her:
"Stop! Not only will you consume your energy, but you will also cause the mutated locust tree to attack!"
The girl gasped and said slightly hysterically:
"You said it lightly, it's not like you are tied up, and those men, don't look around! Can you please hurry up, I will be dead by the time you get there!"
Yi Chen frowned when he heard this, and Tian Hong was choked with anger by the girl. They tried their best to save people but were scolded by the girl. Maybe repaying kindness is not taught in school!
And the most taboo thing in the apocalypse is making noises. From the moment she yelled to now, she was seeking death. The fat man was really right this time, this girl is a fool with a broken head!
However, despite this, they still rushed into the mutant locust tree covered with branches and vines. As if they also realized that someone had intruded into the territory, the branches and vines under their feet began to attack Yi Chen and the others.
The branches and vines were like long snakes, flying and flying at a fast pace. Because the number was too dense, it was a little difficult for Chen Leitian Hong to deal with it, but he could barely resist it.
The chief was relatively relaxed. The ax in his hand had a large attack area, and a large vine fell down with a sharp swing. This also relieved a lot of defensive pressure on them.
Yi Chen stared closely at the girl's position. If they reached the rescue range, there was no need for them to get too close to the mutated locust tree. What attacked them were only the branches and vines on the outside. This made them tired of dealing with the consequences if they got inside. Imagine.
Just as he was staring above the girl, several branches suddenly attacked him at the same time, like bullets, whizzing sharply towards Yi Chen's eyes, mouth and nose.
"Holy shit!"
Yi Chen secretly sighed that this thing was so dangerous. He went straight to the weakest part of the human body and struck. Thinking that he didn't dare to hesitate with his hands, he gripped the rune stick and swung it downwards. It didn't matter that the branch was directly killed. Then the mutated locust tree also trembled, as if it was painfully hit!
When I was wondering, the chief's voice sounded in my mind:
"The rune stick is made from the sacred tree. The sacred tree has the effect of suppressing and transforming all plants. It is normal for the mutated locust tree to suffer pain at this time!"
Yi Chen's eyes lit up when he heard that, holy shit! Doesn't this mean that I have obtained a weapon that can restrain mutant plants? I can't say I can kill it, but it is impossible to get close to the mutant locust tree.
Thinking of this, Yi Chen waved the rune stick and wanted to rush forward. At the same time, a group of figures jumped down from the roof behind him.
