Before doomsday, Jiang Liushi had already obtained Starseed. Thanks to the MCV bound to Starseed, Jiang Liushi could survive until now. Now, he had to protect Starseed.
After taking the helicopter's materials, Jiang Liushi immediately rushed to Hejiang Town.
"It's only been two days. Can He Junhong collect all the materials?" Li Yuxin was still worried.
"I've already found the most difficult part. Moreover, he must be very active in order to save his life," said Jiang Liushi.
He Junhong had become the boss of Hejiang Town, but at the same time, Jiang Liushi was hanging over his head. He could be removed from his position at any time, and he might even lose his head.
No matter what, Jiang Liushi had spared his life and given him the position of the boss. If he couldn't even find all the materials, then he would have no value.
Jiang Liushi's minibus and the Dongfeng Armored Car drove along the road, and then turned to the road to Hejiang Town.
Hejiang Town was a suburb of Jiangning City, so it was not far.
Soon, Jiang Liushi and his minibus approached Hejiang Town.
However, looking from afar, Jiang Liushi suddenly had a strange feeling.
Hejiang Town appeared at the other end of the road like a dark shadow. At first glance, it seemed no different from usual …
When Jiang Liushi's minibus arrived at the town, the strange feeling in his heart was confirmed.
The buildings in Hejiang Town had collapsed, and the road was torn apart as if it had been plowed by something.
Jiang Liushi got off the minibus, vigilantly observing the surroundings, and then he walked toward the town.
The vehicles parked at the town's entrance seemed to have been burned by flames, leaving only some wreckage.
The guards and survivors who were originally guarding the entrance of the town were nowhere to be seen, not to mention a shadow. Not even their corpses could be seen.
After walking for a distance, Jiang Liushi finally saw some white bones in the ruins.
'What happened here?' Jiang Liushi's heart sank.
Ran Xiyu gently closed her eyes, and then she opened them again. She was shocked and said, "There's no one here. There's not a single living thing."
In her spiritual senses, the entire Hejiang Town was empty. There was nothing.
The small town that was previously full of survivors suddenly became even more deathly silent than the ruins of the apocalypse. There wasn't even a single zombie, which was extremely frightening.
Not only were there no living people, no zombies, no bugs, not even plants.
Upon closer inspection, the plants on the roadside had all become barren, like the scene of a forest fire.
These traces extended all the way to the side of the road before disappearing in a crack in the ground.
The culprit who caused all this, no matter what it was, should have left Hejiang Town through this crack.
"Is it a mutant beast tide?" Jiang Liushi stood on the road of the town, looking around with a bad expression.
The traces here did not seem to be left behind by the mutant beasts, although it was obvious that the survivors had fought with their lives.
[The mutant beasts will not take away all the corpses. They will eat them all here,] Jiang Liushi thought.
Only some bones could be seen intermittently. Jiang Liushi went to check, but he couldn't find any trace of being chewed by mutant beasts. Instead, it was a complete bone.
"Everyone is dead?" Jiang Liushi's mood was very heavy.
He looked around and went to the residence that He Junhong had arranged for them in Hejiang Town.
In Wei Feifei's residence, Jiang Liushi unexpectedly found a note pressed on the table.
"I don't know whether you will see it or not. Captain Jiang, there are strange things and a large number of mutant beasts. We have to escape."
"She left a note before escaping. I didn't expect that I would really see it." Fortunately, he had been looking everywhere.
It seemed that not all the people in Hejiang Town had died. Many people should have escaped.
A large number of mutant beasts could be understood, but what was that strange thing?
Jiang Liushi could not help but think of the group of mutant birds that had appeared today.
Perhaps that strange thing was the source of the danger that Starseed had sensed?
Since Wei Feifei had said in the note that it was a 'thing' instead of a monster, it meant that it was not a mutant beast, at least not an ordinary one.
"Squeak!"
Luoluo seemed to have sensed some residual aura in the town, so it had been nervously shrinking into a ball and making low cries.
"I can't find the materials." Jiang Liushi walked around the town, feeling very depressed.
He didn't know where He Junhong had put the materials, and many buildings in the town had become ruins.
If he could drive a car and turn on the automatic absorption function, he would be able to search slowly. However, the road was so bad that even cars could not enter.
Moreover, Jiang Liushi felt that he couldn't stay here for a long time.
That 'strange thing' might come back at any time.
Currently, that 'strange thing' hadn't directly found him or Starseed, which was something that Jiang Liushi couldn't understand.
"Since it was targeting Starseed, why didn't it find Starseed? Instead, it attacked Hejiang Town … "Jiang Liushi was puzzled.
"Brother Jiang, what should we do now?" Zhang Hai also got off the car and followed Jiang Liushi. Looking around, he estimated that Jiang Liushi would not have any harvest, so Jiang Liushi's mood was certainly not good.
"Let's go back to the Jiangning Safety Zone first," Jiang Liushi said.
If he couldn't find the materials, he could only ask General Zhang for help.
The only place that could help him collect those materials was the Jiangning Safety Zone.
…
Boom!
It was as if a train had passed through the underground. With a muffled sound, the ground cracked, and a group of black objects drilled out of the cracks.
After those objects covered with black scales drilled out, they quickly merged together.
In front of it, another group of black objects drilled out of the ruins of a building.
The two black objects fused together, and the combined volume was like a two-storey building.
The black object's surface was covered with scales, and where the scales opened, there were black cracks, like a blood basin's mouth opening and closing. It looked like flesh, but it was not the same as flesh.
Then, the black object that looked like a small building kept moving forward.
In the distance, a group of mutant birds were hovering in the sky, and below them was also a black object that had become as big as a house.
That black object was not only like a 'hive', but the black cracks that were constantly opening and closing were like endless darkness.
The two groups of black objects were constantly approaching each other as if they sensed each other. All the cars and zombies they encountered along the way became a part of them.
Their bodies were getting bigger and bigger, and when they finally merged together, they had become like a real tall building.
This huge black "Beehive" moved unhurriedly in the city, constantly growing …
"What the hell is that?"
In a certain direction of Jiangning City, a group of people were looking at the looming, moving shadow from afar.
One of them was Wei Feifei, and they were the survivors of Hejiang Town who had escaped with great difficulty.
They looked at the black shadow in horror.
"Is that really a living thing?"
They crazily strafed and attacked, but none of them had any effect on the black shadow.
On the contrary, the black shadow kept moving forward, devouring everything it touched.
In addition, it had also brought a large number of mutant beasts.
Those mutant beasts, regardless of their species, were all under its control.
In front of it, the mutant beasts seemed to be under a unified command.
It was even more terrible than the Mother Beast in the beast nest, which could only control mutant beasts.
But the mutant beasts controlled by the 'Hive' would hand over their prey to it, and even take the initiative to be devoured.
"Only the artillery of the Jiangning Safety Zone can kill it!"
"Let's go to the Jiangning Safety Zone! That thing in Jiangning City is like the second doomsday, and we can't survive, "Wei Feifei said in a heavy tone.
In her team, only she, Peach, and two other team members had escaped, and that was because Peach was a psychic paranormal.
But even so, the rest of the team had been sacrificed.
The 'Hive' was more terrible than zombies and mutant beasts.
In front of it, the survivors who struggled to survive in the doomsday had their last chance of survival cut off.
"Yes, we can only go to the Safety Zone!"
There were troops and a large number of firearms in the Safety Zone.
In the doomsday, gunfire and bullets could bring people a greater sense of security.
In the past, the Safety Zone would not easily accept survivors, but now that a greater danger had come, the Safety Zone could not keep them out.
As for escaping from Jiangning … it wasn't easy to migrate in the post-apocalyptic world. Moreover, they were all from Jiangning, and they had managed to survive until now with great difficulty. They didn't want to run for their lives at this time.
"I don't know if Captain Jiang and the others are still safe." Wei Feifei looked at the black shadow in the distance for the last time, and her heart was heavy.
Jiangning Safety Zone.
In the headquarters.
"Beep, beep, beep!"
A landline suddenly rang, and a female soldier who was responsible for answering the phone immediately picked up the phone, "This is the General Command Center, please go ahead."
"Immediately transfer me to Commander Jiang … No, transfer me to the Military Commission, transfer me to the Commander!" An excited voice came from the other end of the phone.
"May I ask what your number and position are?" The female soldier looked slightly serious and asked.
"I am from the Longhu Squad! I just escaped back … Tell the Military Commission and the Commander that I have something important to report! "The voice on the other end of the phone roared.
"I see." The female soldier immediately dialed a number.
She faintly felt that something unusual had happened.
At this time, a soldier covered in blood just put down the phone in the gate of the Safety Zone. His face was pale, and it seemed that the blood on his body was about to run out.
"Comrade, do you really not need to send you to the hospital first?" The soldier inside the gate looked at the soldier in surprise and asked.
"No need. Please give me a car, I want to go to the headquarters. "The soldier said. His thoughts were still in other places.
"What about your comrades and the Captain? Did you … get separated from the team? "The soldier asked again.
"No …" The soldier shook his head, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, "They are all dead."
"What happened?! Did you encounter a mutant zombie? Or … advanced mutant beast? A group of beasts? "The soldier asked in shock.
However, the soldier still shook his head, "No …"
