"Two chapters in one, thank you 1888 for the tip from Zuiyan classmate and 588 from the unwanted classmate, and also thank you to other book friends, thank you all"
"Xiaoyun, how have you been these days? Well, you don't know how worried your father and I are about you after the end of the world. You said that you are a child who knows nothing and is alone. We really thought that you... your father My hair is half gray."
Uncle Lao Jia kept talking to Mr. Yun as he went downstairs. Mr. Yun was not impatient at all, but listened with a smile.
It has been so long since the apocalypse began, enough for anyone to change their original personality. Mr. Yun is no longer the playboy he was before, but an excellent warrior who has been baptized by the zombie tide.
Young Master Yun also understood that his uncle did miss him when he said this, but he also wanted to alleviate the embarrassment of letting people dare to come out to look for food.
In Yingcheng, all fools know how dangerous it is to go out looking for food.
But Mr. Yun doesn't care. With the boss by his side, what can't be solved?
"etc."
When the three people walked to the door of the building, Ye Zhongming suddenly grabbed the two people and motioned for them to stop.
Lao Jia opened his mouth to say something, but was stopped by his nephew. Two seconds later, footsteps came from outside.
Through the window on the first floor, the three of them saw a person stumbling across the street outside. Although his figure was unstable, he was obviously faster than ordinary people. An experienced person like Ye Zhongming could tell at a glance that this should be He is a one-star evolver.
It's just that this one-star evolver is followed by a group of zombies at this time, there are hundreds of them, and there are no evolved zombies, all of them are ordinary level.
Young Master Yun and Lao Jia both looked stunned, because this was a dead end, and the road was blocked by a burned-out high-rise building in front.
Obviously the one-star evolved person was not familiar with this place and accidentally ran here in a panic.
Seeing the huge ruins in front of them that were seventeen or eight meters high, the one-star evolved person let out a desperate cry.
Although ordinary zombies are not very fast, it is obviously too late for the injured one-star evolver to crawl through the ruins before they arrive.
But he didn't want to give up. Climb up along the ruins, but although the ruins have strong points, they also have countless steel and sharp stone protrusions. Every time you climb, you need to calculate your footing. The zombies gradually surrounded them. These zombies didn't care whether they could crawl or not. They climbed up one after another, allowing their bodies to be punctured or even impaled, under tremendous psychological pressure. The one-star evolver failed to hold on tight and fell down a bit.
Immediately, a zombie grabbed his ankle and pulled him back to the ground. The one-star evolution struggled and rushed outward. Every punch would smash a zombie's head, but at the same time, other zombies would also attack him. A piece of flesh and blood was torn off from his body.
After only half a minute, the evolver's back and legs were scratched to expose large pieces of bone, and then he was overwhelmed by the remaining zombies.
The three people watched quietly as the group of ordinary zombies ate the evolved person, and one of them even directly evolved into a second-level zombie. Then he left leisurely.
When they reached the street, a red shadow suddenly rushed out. A fiery red mutated bird grabbed the newly evolved second-level zombie in one bite and took it to high altitude in an instant. The second-level zombie did not react. It was thrown on the wall of a building before. The huge inertia and force turned the zombie into a meat pie. The mutant bird flapped its wings a few times and ate all the best parts of the second-level zombie into its stomach. .
This is the end of the world. Evolvers are getting stronger, zombies are getting stronger, and other mutant life forms are getting stronger at the same time. They ruthlessly kill each other, forming a brand new food chain and a stable and mysterious ecosystem. Unless one aspect is extremely powerful, this situation will continue to exist.
Ye Zhongming had never considered these things in his previous life. He only knows how to hunt mutant life, obtain magic crystals, and evolve himself.
I won’t think about why the end of the world is like this, why can’t we kill all the mutated life forms? Why do zombies and beasts break out from time to time, but the survivors still survive?
After being reborn, Ye Zhongming never stopped thinking about these issues in his mind. He chose a path that he felt was most likely to find answers, and he would keep going. He hoped that one day, he could personally uncover the mystery of the end of the world.
This goal is far away, and the road to the goal is full of bumps and thorns, but Ye Zhongming will continue to walk firmly.
Until...the answer is found.
The three people went out cautiously. According to Lao Jia, there were two supermarkets not far ahead. Although they had been visited by survivors, they still left a lot of things behind. If you are lucky, you should be able to find some food, but There are zombies and mutant life nearby, so you can only be careful and cautious.
Arriving near the supermarket, Ye Zhongming observed it and immediately gave up the idea of attacking. There were at least a thousand zombies gathered within a few hundred meters of the supermarket. There was also a mutated orchid blooming on the window sill of the second floor of the supermarket. Even if he Even though he is a three-star evolution, he is not willing to fight for something to eat.
So he pretended to dig around in Mr. Yun's backpack for a long time, took out five bags of compressed biscuits and several boxes of cans, and told Lao Jia not to take risks and eat what he brought first.
Lao Jia's favor for Ye Zhongming skyrocketed. He knew very well that in the camp to which he belonged, these things could be exchanged for a good gun, or more than eight magic crystals, or for the most beautiful woman in the camp to sleep with him. Week.
Back on the roof, they were still talking about the one-star evolver downstairs who was eaten by a group of zombies. When they saw the three people coming back with the food, their eyes widened. There were the most zombies in the city, and the mutated animals were relatively rare. There are few, so when hunting, you rarely get the carcasses of mutated animals, and there are not many opportunities to eat meat. Now that you see canned meat that tastes great, I feel so excited.
"Old Jia, you guys are pretty good." The leader, Team Leader Lin, took half of the food for himself and ate it unceremoniously. The others shared the rest, and found But the three people who served the food didn't even get any scraps.
Mr. Yun's temper became a little bit worse. There were only two evolutionaries among these people. Mr. Yun felt that he could kill them all without the boss taking action. As soon as he had the murderous intention, he was stopped by Ye Zhongming and pulled him to the top of the building. corner.
"Boss, these people are too..."
"This is the end of the world." Ye Zhongming's current food is basically meat from second-level mutant life forms, and he has little interest in these ordinary foods. "We will follow them. Go to the camp to find your father, and then you will make arrangements. Go to Genting The villa is fine, or I can stay with you at the Hungry Tiger Knight for the time being. There is no need to conflict with them for the time being."
Young Master Yun felt hot, knowing that the boss was thinking about himself, otherwise these people would be no different from ants in the eyes of the boss.
"I see."
Mr. Yun became quiet and leaned against the wall to talk to Ye Zhongming. After a while, Lao Jia saw that he had no chance to get food. He also came back with a disappointed look on his face and apologized to both of them.
Ye Zhongming took the opportunity to inquire about the situation in Yingcheng with Lao Jia, trying to be confident before attending the trade fair.
This kind of transaction would be a good opportunity for each other to exchange what they had, but it was also a good opportunity for shady people to make a fortune. Although he didn't think any of the survivors could pose a fatal threat to him at this stage, it was always good to be prepared.
"When it comes to the forces in Yingcheng, there are four strongest families." Hearing Ye Zhongming and his nephew ask him for advice, Lao Jia became more interested in talking. He stretched out four fingers and said: "Renxing team, Team Liro, Olive Green Commando, and Star America.”
Ye Zhongming nodded. He had heard these names mentioned by Yuan Shang. From this point of view, the authenticity of this invitation card should be reliable.
"The strongest one is undoubtedly the Renxing team. All members are evolutionaries. At the beginning of the month, a collective operation was held at the Chengnan subway station and a group of mutated rats were taken away from their lair. I heard that they got dozens of level three magic crystals alone. , there are hundreds of second-level magic crystals, and countless first-level magic crystals.”
Mr. Yun smiled. Knowing that his uncle's words were a bit exaggerated and that there were countless things, the number of magic crystals obtained by killing zombies at Yunding Villa was also countless. Could it be that there are more than 20,000 rats in this nest?
"Baifeng, the current boss of Team Renxing, is a three-star evolver. He's awesome. He's a professional. He's very powerful. He also has other three-stars. There are four or five two-star evolvers, and the others are all one-star."
Young Master Yun looked at his boss, smiled evilly, and said nothing.
"The other three forces are slightly worse than the Renxing team, but they are also very strong, and they all have three-star evolvers."
"So many three-stars?" Mr. Yun couldn't help but ask. His boss had just three-starred. Why did this group of forces have three-star evolvers?
Lao Jia affirmed: "Yes, Xiaoyun, you don't know that for the three-star evolution potion, the whole Yingcheng was in chaos for two weeks. These big forces are crazy. Anyone who can provide third-level mutant life All positions were given to level 1 magic crystals. Every time a level 3 life was discovered, it was a big battle. Too many people died. Several olive green commandos who had suffered the most losses were said to have obtained the three-star potion. Most of the people died! Other forces are not much better."
There was still lingering fear in his tone, and it was obvious that the situation at that time left a deep impression on Lao Jia.
"Isn't this a three-star evolver who used his men's lives to pile up his life?" Mr. Yun asked with a frown.
"Of course, or what do you think?" Lao Jia said as if he was a nephew, don't make a fuss about it: "The roulette wheel is so fucked up. If you want to continue to evolve, you have to hunt down mutant life forms that are higher than yourself. , What can you do if you don’t take the life pile? Those small forces who want to take the life pile haven’t had a chance yet!”
Ye Zhongming looked calm. This situation is the norm in the end of the world. The entire team's resources are concentrated on one or a few people. Then these people become stronger and give some benefits to their subordinates like charity. Many people in the past life figured it out later, but were unable to change it, because if they left the team, they would not even have the chance to eat leftovers, so they could only be willing to be exploited by others.
"There are about ten second-rate forces, such as the Zhenghao Wings Team, the Bloody Lamp Team, the Youth Mercenary Group, the Taiping Kingdom, etc. Several of these forces also have three-star evolvers, but their overall strength is weaker. For example, the Wings of Zhenghao were definitely a big force in the past, but more people died when hunting level three mutant life forms, so even if there are three-star evolvers, the backbone is too weak and can only be ranked second-rate."
"There are so many other third-rate and inferior ones, so it's okay not to mention them. Oh, by the way, someone made a ranking about the strength of the survivors in Yingcheng. Do you want to listen to it?"
After speaking, regardless of whether Ye Zhongming and Mr. Yun agreed or not, he continued: "The first place is Team Renxing, the second place is Xingmei Company, the third place is Team Lihou, the fourth place is Olive Green Commando, and the fifth place is Zhenghao Wings, the sixth place, the Taiping Kingdom, the seventh youth mercenary group. The eighth place is Yingcheng Prison, the ninth place is the blood-stained lamp, the tenth place is the Burning Fury Team, hehe, this is where your father and I are. , Eleventh place... Thirty-first place Salsa team. Thirty-second place..."
Lao Jia mentioned the top forty in one breath.
After hearing this, Mr. Yun asked: "Yingcheng Prison? That's not in Yingcheng, right?"
Lao Jia nodded and said: "It's not within the city, but it can be considered within the scope of Yingcheng. It is said that it is quite powerful, so I came in. There are many powerful forces in the surrounding area who are ranked. For example, there is Yunding Villa, which is quite famous. We have been to the resort before, and I heard that there is a group of people there who are pretty good, ranked 41st."
Young Master Yun glanced at the boss, couldn't help but laugh and said: "Forty-one in Yunding Villa?! The thirty-first in Shasha Team?"
Lao Jia was stunned for a moment, then thought about it and said: "That's right, that's how it is arranged. This ranking is updated every half a month, and there are still two days until the new issue is updated."
Ye Zhongming is somewhat affectionate towards this ranking. Because this kind of ranking of past lives appears in various fields, especially when the survivors have made more and more contacts, this kind of ranking has become something that everyone will talk about and care about.
In the previous life, Ye Zhongming's team was ranked among the top ten forces in Yingcheng. Ye Zhongming was even lucky enough to be ranked around 100 on the personal list of long-range combat power. He was also considered a big player in Yingcheng. Big and small figures.
But in the province or even the country, he is too insignificant.
But now Ye Zhongming's previous forces have not yet appeared.
Moreover, Ye Zhongming also heard that there is also a celebrity strength list in the world. Only nine-star powerhouses and super powers are qualified to enter it. However, it is only spread among high-level people. Ye Zhongming does not know the specific ranking.
that side. Team leader Lin and others finished their meal, shouted to Lao Jia here, and then went to bed after watching the night watch.
Young Master Yun finally figured out that his uncle had no status in the team.
It's no wonder that Lao Jia is thin. There are also no good weapons. If you don't do the dirty work in the team, you may be kicked out.
Lao Jia stood up helplessly, walked to the edge of the building, and sat there as a sentry, not daring to reminisce with his nephew. Otherwise, if Team Leader Lin sees him, he will be beaten.
In the middle of the night, Ye Zhongming came over and asked Lao Jia to take a nap. Master Yun's uncle was not young, and he was not an evolver. He often had to do hard work in the team. His health was actually not very good now. Seeing Ye Zhong Ming took the initiative to replace him, feeling grateful and thanking him repeatedly.
Ye Zhongming secretly stuffed a piece of dried meat into Lao Jia's hand. It was the meat of a second-level mutated wild boar. Lao Jia didn't recognize it, but after eating it, he could increase his physical fitness a lot.
Lao Jia was even more grateful to Ye Zhongming and felt that Xiaoyun had really made a good friend.
Mr. Yun was lying on the side. Ye Zhongming woke up when he got up. Seeing this scene, he felt even warmer in his heart.
There was no danger that night. When they got up early in the morning, Team Leader Lin once again asked Old Jia Yun and Young Master Ye Zhongming to find food. This time Ye Zhongming took out two bags of bread with a long shelf life and asked Team Leader Lin and the others to go out again. Very happy.
The group that Lao Jia belongs to belongs to the Furious Burning Team. This time they came out to look for advanced mutant life forms. There is no need to fight. They only need to note down the specific location. Hunting is the responsibility of the elite team, and the second priority is to collect first-level mutants. Magic crystal.
The team wandered around the area all morning, noted down the locations of several second-level mutated life forms, and then turned back to the base. At two o'clock in the afternoon, they returned to the camp.
As the tenth ranked team in Yingcheng, Team Fury's camp is located in a leisure square in an old-fashioned community. The team uses bricks, cement or scrap car debris to block the spaces between the surrounding buildings, and the windows on each floor are also blocked. They were all blocked up, and the buildings were used as small city walls to build a fairly solid gathering place.
Climbing over a relatively short city wall from the fire escape, we entered the gathering place. A picture of human survival at the end of the world immediately appeared in the eyes of several people.
Many people greeted Team Leader Lin and asked about their gains from the trip.
In addition to the three elite teams in the entire Burning Fury team, there are nearly twenty ordinary teams. There is a competitive relationship between each team. The seemingly friendly greetings actually have the meaning of prying inside.
Ye Zhongming followed the team. Because he was an unfamiliar face, he attracted a lot of people's attention. Team leader Lin only said that he was looking for someone, and those people didn't ask any more questions. Such things happened in various bases. After obtaining After achieving the most basic survival, many people began to look for relatives and friends.
However, Ye Zhongming still felt something strange in the crowd. There was obvious anger and uneasiness in these people's eyes.
At this time, a group of people suddenly walked out of the factory building in the center of the camp. There were only five or six people, but they were very energetic. The originally lively camp immediately became quiet.
"Who is this?" Team leader Lin looked at the outsiders coming out of the high-rise rest area and asked a companion next to him.
"The twenty-third ranked Kiel Knights."
"What are these lunatics doing here?" Team leader Lin shrank back and said with a look of fear.
"What else could it be for, just for that invitation card to the trade fair? Ever since the incident with the eldest young master and the others, you don't know how angry we have been. Our strength has dropped drastically, and we will definitely fall outside of thirty in the ranking update the day after tomorrow. , and the Kiel Knights don't know what kind of luck they had. I heard that they got a bottle of three-star evolution potion after only turning it once. Their ranking must have risen significantly. They think they are qualified to attend the trade fair. No, they are in the top two. They dare not touch the ten other forces and bully us."
This man looked angry, but there was nothing he could do about it. The Kiel Knights were now stronger than the Burning Fury Team. This was an indisputable fact.
Lao Jia also watched, but he, an ordinary survivor, had no right to participate in these high-level matters. He told Team Leader Lin to take his nephew to his father, and Team Leader Lin drove him away like a fly.
Ye Zhongming just glanced at the Kiel Knights who left proudly, and then left with Mr. Yun and Lao Jia.
"Xiaoyun, your father and I live in the warehouse in front. Although the conditions are not very good, we have a place to settle down. Your father and I will take turns to go hunting. If we are lucky, we can get a magic crystal. Being able to replace food for several days is not bad in this world."
The three people walked for a while and arrived at the warehouse that Lao Jia was talking about. From a distance, they saw a lot of people gathering at the entrance of the warehouse, and some curses came from inside.
"Damn it, did you think you were the powerful master from before?! Let me tell you, you are a piece of shit! You dare to spit at me when I get your bottle of water, you must be tired of living! Tell me, do you kneel or not? ?!”
"I'll kneel down to you!"
A thick man roared angrily. Hearing this voice, Mr. Yun was stunned for a moment, then his face turned red and he rushed towards the place where the voice came from.
Ye Zhongming also narrowed his eyes and followed slowly behind. (To be continued.)
