"Help...save me...save me!"
The intermittent calls for help came from far and near, like unreal murmurs, slowly pulling Zhang Ning's consciousness out of the quagmire of nothingness.
"Are you calling me...who is it...I'm so tired...let me sleep a little longer..."
Zhang Ning felt as if his consciousness was being shackled by someone. The heavy feeling made him subconsciously want to give up and sink into the quagmire of nothingness again.
At this moment, a cry for help suddenly sounded in his ears, like the first thunder before heavy rain.
"Zhang Ning! Save me!!"
"Um?!"
Zhang Ning's eyes suddenly opened, he struggled to pull his head out of the quagmire of nothingness, and looked in the direction of the sound.
It was a familiar figure, and the sweet face was the features he wanted to see the most, but no matter how hard he concentrated on looking, the picture in front of him seemed to be covered with a veil and blurred.
"Is it Jiayi? Is it you?"
Even though he couldn't see the other person's face clearly, Zhang Ning still asked for the name in his heart.
"Why don't you come to me..."
The vague figure neither acknowledged Zhang Ning's inquiry nor denied it, but continued to ask quietly after a moment of silence.
"I...I can't find you...where are you..."
The quagmire beneath him seemed to have discovered Zhang Ning's escape, and an invisible force wrapped around him, like a warden with a hateful face, grinning and putting layers of shackles on the prisoner.
Guilt and sadness were like waves, overwhelming Zhang Ning's consciousness, more like the devil's big hand, dragging him towards the bottomless abyss.
tomato
"I'm here……"
When Zhang Ning lowered his head and looked away, the blurry figure trembled slightly, like an old TV set with poor signal reception, flickering slightly.
But this abnormality soon disappeared, and the originally blurry figure gradually became clearer, like a white deer walking out of the fog, showing its true appearance in front of Zhang Ning.
"I will never leave you again..."
When he looked up again, Zhang Ning's face was already covered with tears due to guilt and excitement. That was the figure he thought about day and night, that was his lover.
"Surrender!"
The invisible sound seemed to come from the far end of the world, sweeping through Zhang Ning's body at an incredible speed. The white confusion around him began to darken quickly, mixed with red and black strangeness, wrapping it up layer by layer. The two in the center.
"Okay... don't leave me again. I will protect you. Even if the world is destroyed, I will stand firmly by your side..."
A slight but heavy oath poured out from Zhang Ning's lips, expressing his heart's wishes with the most sincere emotions.
"Protect me...don't leave me..."
The red and black mist turned into tough ribbons, wrapping around Zhang Ning's body one after another. The quagmire of nothingness under him seemed to want to drag down the target in front of him, but there were black ribbons blocking it. All attempts were in vain.
"I'm saved...because of you...I'm saved...thank you...thank you..."
The belt gently wrapped around Zhang Ning's body, lifting all the burdens from his body. An unprecedented sense of security filled his heart, as if he was in the most gentle swaddling clothes, making him unwilling to wake up again.
The black tape quickly wrapped Zhang Ning tightly. After completing the last step, the texture on the surface began to melt rapidly, like wax that had been roasted by high temperature, and then condensed to form a solid layer. Armor.
The giant cocoon formed by the black ribbon gradually transformed into a cocoon as time went by.
A strong pupal shell...
…
The deaf sheep looked at the frowning girl, and then at the bloodstained man who was extremely dull. The anxiety in his heart was like a weed that cannot be burned by wildfire, and it began to grow crazily.
"What took so long..."
Nearly an hour has passed since the injection of black mucus. The already slanting sun has already half penetrated the building. The orange-red sunlight shines through the cracks in the steel and concrete, as if unwilling to The children who came home pulled hard on the door frame outside the house.
Deafyang was not worried about the dark, he was just worried about Lin Tanying's safety.
Although he had never seen the scene when Lin Tanying recognized his followers, his intuition told him that it shouldn't take so long.
If every general-level zombie had been recognized as a follower for such a long time, then the former owner of Dacai would not have talked about robbing other people's followers so lightly.
If someone with ulterior motives attacks you during the long recognition process, precious lives will be lost.
That's why Deafyang came to the conclusion that it shouldn't take long for a general-level zombie to be recognized as a follower.
"Wait for a while, and if that doesn't work, try to ask Private No. 1 to fight the man away, and then find a safe place to continue approving..."
Looking at the sun that was about to sink into the sky between the buildings, Deafyang secretly made a decision in his heart.
But just after he made the decision to wait a while, a soft moan came from beside him. When he turned around, he found that Lin Tanying had opened his eyes and was panting on the spot with a tired face. Rough.
"How's it going? Was the recognition successful?"
Seeing this, the deaf sheep secretly added some strength to his tentacles. While stabilizing the girl's body, he asked.
"Oh, sister, there is no time when I fail when I take action. It's done, he will be your colleague from now on! Ask for his name first!"
A proud smile appeared on Lin Tanying's tired face, like a child who had won his beloved toy through his own efforts and was extremely happy.
"He also has autonomous consciousness?"
A surprised retort came out of his mouth, and the deaf sheep looked at Zhang Ning, who was covered in blood, in disbelief.
The neck is covered with scales, and the body is the size of a normal human being. Although the deaf sheep does not know the identity of the other person, based on the preliminary judgment made from the appearance, the various characteristics of the blood-stained man in front of him are all the same as those seen before. The old lady general who arrived had very similar retinues.
"At that time, the old lady seemed to call her retinue...Pawn Seven?"
Such a word suddenly popped into my mind. Although I knew that this was probably the name the old lady and the undead gave to her followers, there was something special about it at first glance.
At least it wasn't as casual as Lin Tanying's acquisition of Soldier No. 1.
Hearing Deafyang's question, Lin Tanying nodded and answered.
"He does have an independent consciousness, and this consciousness is still very strong, but it is strong. His consciousness seems to be very chaotic, and there is no sign of waking up. On the contrary, it has a tendency to gradually disappear..."
"Intense? Chaos? Fading away?"
Hearing these words, Deafyang's eyes widened a little wider. He felt that he could understand every word that came out of Lin Tanying's mouth, but when strung together, it became an incomprehensible sentence. .
"His obsession is deep, but his physical condition is really bad. Excessive repairs have exhausted the energy in his body, causing confusion in his consciousness."
"If I don't intervene, he may become like Private One, a beast driven by instinct..."
After briefly explaining to the deaf sheep, Lin Tanying seemed to have regained some strength and gently pushed away the supporting tentacles.
"Oh, well, that means that Soldier One and I now have a new colleague..."
The deaf sheep shrugged, with a hint of maturity on his young face that didn't match his appearance.
"It should be Soldier No. 1, Xiaocai. Dacai has a new colleague. You are my brother."
Lin Tanying stood in front of Zhang Ning. While looking at the other person's scarlet pupils, he calmly corrected the deaf sheep.
"It sounds quite heart-warming. I really don't know where you learned this rhetoric to win people over."
There was a bit of teasing in Deafyang's tone. He was now in a relaxed mood. Lin Tanying was fine. They had successfully recognized a second-level subordinate. There was no potential threat at the moment. This was simply the most perfect state.
The hard-working Soldier No. 1 was still pressing Zhang Ning's shoulders. As long as Lin Tanying did not order the release, he would not dare to slack off at all.
"Relax and go eat your food..."
The girl pursed her lips and signaled Private One to lift the restrictions on the blood-stained man. Then she leaned in front of the man's face, like a curious child, and asked.
"What's your name……"
"I……"
Zhang Ning, who had been keeping still, was like a wind-up toy that was powered by power. He blinked his eyelids twice and said in a dull voice.
"My name is...er...a soldier-level zombie. The initial characteristics of a soldier-level zombie are black scales and scarlet...scarlet eyes...and extremely strong vitality...even a headshot cannot kill it... "
Zhang Ning kept opening and closing his mouth like a repeater that was not very easy to use, repeating some sentences that had nothing to do with the question.
"Didn't you say that he has a sense of autonomy? The way he is now...is his brain broken..."
Deafyang looked at Zhang Ning who was speaking slowly and twitched the corner of his mouth twice, doubting Lin Tanying's reliability again.
"Tsk...what's going on? Could it be that I really ruined it...it shouldn't be..."
Lin Tanying also had a look of doubt on his face, and smacked his lips in confusion.
"Well, turn back!"
Before the deaf sheep could ask any more questions, an order suddenly spat out from Lin Tanying's mouth, and the target was the bloody man in front of him who answered dully.
After hearing the order, the blood-stained man Zhang Ning immediately stopped talking and turned around neatly, facing Lin Tanying and Deafyang with his back.
During this process, the deaf sheep discovered that the back of the opponent's neck was also covered with black scales, and the one in the middle was still light blue with some red threads mixed in, which looked somewhat similar to the previous red threads. .
"Look, he is very obedient. He probably just has a problem with his speech... After all, he was seriously injured..."
Putting her hands on her waist, the girl said with satisfaction.
"Um, you mean, he has the ability to think independently, but he just has some problems with expression?"
Deafyang quickly understood what Lin Tanying meant and added.
"Yes, it's like those families who are full of good stories, but suffer from poor writing skills and cannot write satisfactory works!"
"But no matter what, let's pick a name first! The name of a soldier-level zombie sounds very low-class at first sight..."
It was obvious that the girl had completely ignored the strange behavior displayed by the blood-stained man.
"So...what do you want to name him..."
A bad premonition flashed through Deafyang's heart, but he knew he was powerless to stop it, so he had no choice but to cooperate and ask.
"Just call...Private No. 3!"
"really……"
