Apocalypse Survival

The boy said: "Hide, hide... come."

Hearing this, the blankness on Shu Ye's face turned into doubt, "What?"

The boy's voice was hoarse and unpleasant, and he spoke a few words intermittently, and his pronunciation was still vague. Shu Ye couldn't hear what he said at all.

Naturally, the young man also noticed the difficulty in speaking, and he tried to speak out again, but his throat was hard and his voice was small.

——He hasn't spoken for too long, and after a long time, he seems to have lost the ability to speak.

Thinking of this, the young man couldn't help but dim his eyes.

He finally took back the arm that was stretched out to catch the water droplets, and with one hand, he gestured to Shu Ye above with his wet hand. His movements were unfamiliar and stiff, but he persistently signaled Shu Ye to go down into the sewer Come.

Shu Ye showed hesitation.

He understood the boy's signal, but seeing how difficult it was for him to say a word, he didn't intend to ask him to say a few long sentences to explain why he wanted to go down.

Furthermore...

Shu Ye scanned the surrounding situation.

The zombies all around surrounded him, densely packed, corpses squeezed corpses, all waved their arms and squeezed forward, trying to take Shu Ye down.

Shu Ye understands the truth that people's hearts are unpredictable in the last days, at least for now, he doesn't intend to trust a young man who doesn't know the details.

——Even if the boy is thinking about his life.

After refusing to go with the boy, the best solution to the current zombie siege is to run away.

Thinking of this, Shu Ye started to move the manhole cover again, and he took the time to say to the boy underneath: "There are a lot of zombies outside, you should hide yourself better."

Cai Wenji next to her was putting away the crystal nuclei in a small cloth bag, and after putting it all away, she grabbed Shu Ye's trouser legs and leaned over to the sewer mouth to look down curiously.

Shu Ye freed his hand to grab Cai Wenji by the back collar and put her aside.

"Remember not to come up." Shu Ye spoke to the people below, while dragging the manhole cover to its original position, and let go.

Click, the manhole cover is closed.

Shu Ye patted the ashes on his hands, pulled over the ride-car that was floating beside him waiting to be recruited, put Cai Wenji in his arms, and sat on it by himself.

The mount slowly lifts into the air according to the rider's will.

Rising to mid-air, Shu Ye threw the crowded zombies under his feet, and completely escaped the predicament of being surrounded by zombies.

"Retreat." Shu Ye gave an order.

After the words fell, Zhen Ji immediately flew up into the sky, and in the blink of an eye, she arrived at Shu Ye's side as a guard.

Shu Ye wanted to take the three heroes Dunshan, Nuwa, and Zhou Yu back into the summoning system.

After the light of the leaf pattern on his wrist flickered like breathing for a moment, the three heroes who were still on the ground felt the induction, and their figures gradually faded away.

In the end, the hero's figure turned transparent and disappeared in place, and was taken back into the summoning system to wait for the next call.

After the heroes disappear, the skill attacks they left behind also disappear.

The previously hindered zombies now have room to move forward. Under the crowd of countless rear forces, the zombies in the front row rushed forward in a daze.

But it was empty and fell directly to the ground, filling up the small open space near the manhole cover.

And the next reaction was like dominoes, one zombie fell, and thousands of zombies also fell.The zombies fell forward one after another, crackling, and in a short while, they all rubbed against each other and twisted on the ground.

Shu Ye witnessed this scene in mid-air on his mount, and almost laughed out of place.

Looking down at the ground from a high altitude, the zombies below are like a large group of ants, countless, gathering from different intersections, blocking the intersection area.

The place where the zombies gather occupies a large area. After watching the excitement of the zombies, Shu Ye controls the riding cart and drives in the opposite direction of the crowd of zombies.

Shu Ye wanted to find a quieter place to settle down and sort things out—how did the zombies suddenly appear in large numbers and try to attack him?

He stood at the intersection for a long time before, and there was fresh blood on the nearby roadside, but he didn't see any zombies, not even a single zombie wandering aimlessly on the street or in the house.

And in a short while, a large group of zombies suddenly appeared, without any warning at all.

This is totally unscientific.

However, the system's guess that there are higher-level zombies controlling the behavior of lower-level zombies, Shu Ye thinks it makes sense.

But until no trace of the actual high-level zombies is found, this guess can only be a guess, and cannot be treated or publicized as a fact.

And how did Cheng Tianyi stay underground?Why set up a mental power defense network underground?

Why did lightning strike him when he was standing on the ground just now?Is this a natural accident?

One thing after another, it feels a little messy to think about it together, like the feeling of not being able to find a thread in a mess of wool.

But Shu Ye had a premonition—something he didn't know would definitely connect everything together.

Shu Ye thought too much, and couldn't help sitting on the mount in a daze.

Until Cai Wenji suddenly pulled La Shuye's sleeve.

Shu Ye came back to his senses, looked down at Cai Wenji in his arms suspiciously, Cai Wenji looked up at her summoner, pointed to the sky with her little hand, and said, "Look, there are dark clouds over the top."

Shu Ye looked up in the direction of Cai Wenji's finger, and when his eyes touched the scene above his head, he couldn't help being startled.

When I stood on the ground and looked up at the sky before, I just felt that the sky was not good, not only dark, but also covered with thunderclouds.The rest felt nothing.

Now that I am in midair, when I look up at the sky again, I feel that I am much closer to the sky, and I can see some details more clearly.

The clouds were thick and dense, full of gray color, covering the sky opaquely, as if a group of jellyfish occupied a sea area.

When looking up at the lightning flashes frequently exploding in the clouds in mid-air, there is a sense of novelty like watching the special effects of a science fiction film.

But the electric light splits in front of the eyes, and the illusion that it is within reach makes one's scalp tingle.

The lesson from the past is still there, and Shu Ye can't help but feel worried—look at the thunder and electricity, they look so powerful, they might attack him again, right?

At the same time, the system is also scanning and observing the clouds.

[Calculating the degree of danger of the cloud layer. 】

[The calculation result has been obtained. 】

[Dangerous degree of cloud layer——Level A. 】

[In the five danger levels of S, A, B, C, and D, it is already a level of danger. 】The system reminded Shu Ye: 【Host, fly lower, don't get too close to the clouds. 】

Shu Ye obediently lowered the flying height of his mount.

Flying high before is to see far, to facilitate the planning of the ride's driving route, to avoid skyscrapers, so as not to be caught off guard at the next turn and avoid bumping into irregular and stylishly designed walls.

But now that the system spoke, Shu Ye had no choice but to give up this convenience, and instead opened the route map provided by the system, and walked slowly and at low altitude in this abandoned city full of tall buildings.

"What are the risk factors of the clouds?" Shu Ye asked the system while looking at the map and planning the route ahead in real time.

The system is quite authoritative in some respects.If the cloud layer entered the dangerous ranking simply because of unknown lightning, then it could only get a D-level evaluation.

And the system gave it a rating of A.

There must be one or more other risk factors.

[The dark cloud above our heads is a natural weather disaster formed in the end-time environment. According to ordinary data analysis, it is only D-level dangerous. 】

The system's speech was the same as Shu Ye's guess.

But what the system said next shocked Shu Ye: [The only factor that caused the cloud layer to upgrade to A-level dangerous level is—there are unknown mental power fluctuations in the cloud layer. 】

[As for the unknown fluctuation of mental power, I am still monitoring, and the specific situation will not be known until later. 】

[However, the monitoring results in a short period of time can confirm that this unknown mental power appears and disappears from time to time, sometimes it is very strong, and sometimes it is very weak. 】

The system has a bold idea: [I suspect that this cloud has a mind of its own. 】

And put forward his own guess: [You were struck by lightning before, although you escaped but even the ground was shoveled away, maybe it was not an accident, but the result of the clouds consciously. 】

After dutifully expressing the facts and conjectures, the system then asked the host for his opinion: 【Shu Ye, what do you think? 】

"You mean," Shu Ye was shocked by the system's speech that seemed to be inflamed, and he gasped for it, and said incredulously, "Is Yun Chengjing?"

system:【……】

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, you are not allowed to become a spirit. The host is just mocking me.

It certainly is.

I remember.

Cai Wenji: "...?"

What the system said, in addition to being able to hear the host Shu Ye, the Summoner System parasitic on Shu Ye can also share the content, and the heroes from the Summoner System can naturally hear it.

Zhen Ji, who has been silently guarding Shu Ye, is a good girl. For the sake of the summoner's face, she thought about it carefully, and then slowly spoke up for her own summoner: "...It seems that there is some reason."

Zhen Ji glanced at the seemingly endless dark clouds, frowned, and couldn't help saying: "Although I don't know the truth, these clouds always give me a sense of discomfort and rejection."

"It's a bit like..." Zhen Ji considered the words she wanted to say, but for a while, she couldn't think of an appropriate description.

Just when the end of Zhen Ji's hesitant thinking was silenced, Shu Ye happened to be in the low sky not far from a towering office building and was about to turn around, but unexpectedly, he had a face-to-face encounter with a zombie.

——While wandering aimlessly, this zombie accidentally walked to the small external balcony used by the office workers to rest and smoke.

After coming out, it not only saw how beautiful the outside world was, but also saw Shu Ye's charming demeanor.

After changing the flying height of his mount, Shu Ye passed among the dense skyscrapers, and he could often look at the zombies locked in the building through the glass windows or balconies.

As for Shu Ye, a living person, he was like a popular star who swaggered around, while the zombies were fanatical star chasers, and their enthusiasm for "stars" could be said to burn the entire desert.

It's just that at that time Shu Ye turned his head and left in time. Through the floor-to-ceiling windows with a blind spot and a distance of sight, the zombie lost its target and became restless for a while, before falling into dazed silence again.

In this way, there were no accidents, and there was no big disturbance of the zombie riot.

The situation was different this time. The zombie who was lucky enough to find "food" was on a balcony with a wide view, and lost sight of blind spots and sight distance.

The zombies stared greedily at Shu Ye, exhaled loudly, and the whites of their cloudy eyes leaked out.

It stretched its arms and stretched its teeth and claws, trying to tear Shu Ye's flesh with its sharp claws, and kept moving forward to get close to Shu Ye, but was stopped by the balcony guardrail blocking its chest.

The zombie's painless body bumped against the balcony guardrail. Seeing that Shu Ye was about to go away, and the "food" in his hand was about to fly, the zombie opened its mouth in vain, hoarsely The breath sound has come out from the throat.

——It is about to rely on loud roars to attract friends and gather an army of the same kind to come quickly, intending to watch and eat "food" together.
