Chapter 193 The Survivors of Tonghe City
At dusk, Ji Youfeng, dressed in old white clothes, leaned against the corner of the ruins of the city.
The light blue laser sword in his hand glowed faintly.
Under him, lay the mutilated remains of a large area of hideous-looking zombies.
After a day of fierce fighting, his originally clean and tidy white suit was stained with large amounts of blood.
The air was filled with the stench of rotting corpses and blood, pungent and nauseating.
On the ground covered with broken corpses of zombies, you can occasionally see a few human corpses.
On the street not far ahead, there were hundreds of members of the law enforcement team, lowering their heads and looking for something in the pile of corpses from time to time.
They are searching for the missing zombie cores. In the apocalypse, these cores are absolute hard currency.
A day had passed since they arrived in Tonghe City.
Over the course of the day, convoys carrying thousands of people passed through several urban areas.
After crushing the sea of blood composed of countless zombie monsters, they finally arrived at the area marked as a yellow area.
The door of the abandoned convenience store across the street was suddenly pushed open from inside.
Mu Qiu, wearing a black windbreaker and a white shirt, walked out of the convenience store holding a box of dried fruits.
His leisurely demeanor and gentle movements were in stark contrast to the cautious looking law enforcement members around him who had not yet recovered from the battle just now.
Ji Youfeng turned around and saw this extremely inconsistent scene.
Mu Qiu noticed Ji Youfeng's gaze, raised the dried fruit in her hand, and said with a smile:
"Want some?"
Ji Youfeng had a trace of blood on his face and slowly shook his head.
At this moment, the intercom on Ji Youfeng's chest suddenly flashed red.
Ji Youfeng picked up the walkie-talkie, and a slightly excited voice came from inside:
"Captain, a group of human survivors were found here, numbering about a hundred people!"
"We're bringing them here now!"
Ji Youfeng's eyes flashed:
"I see."
Mu Qiu also heard the news from the side, narrowed her eyes slightly, and ate another piece of dried fruit.
Within a few quarters of an hour, teams that went out to search came back one after another.
Several teams brought back some ragged, emaciated human survivors.
Most of these survivors are ordinary people without special powers, living in the darkness of this ruin without enough food, unkempt, like beggars.
Not taking a shower for a long time left these survivors with a disgusting stench.
The stench that comes from getting closer even covers up the smell of blood that fills the air.
Of course, there are some survivors who are still neatly dressed. Most of these people are awakened people with supernatural powers and are doing well in the ruins.
After more than a dozen teams rushed back, a law enforcement team with several military vehicles also rushed back.
A group of uniformed law enforcement team members stepped out of the car.
The spacious carriage at the rear was filled with dozens of neatly dressed human survivors.
The appearance of these human survivors is very different from the beggar-looking survivors brought back by the previous teams.
He was strong and energetic, and at first glance he thought he was a member of a search party.
A man wearing law enforcement uniform walked up to Ji Youfeng, followed by two figures, a man and a woman.
The man is tall and strong, with a yellowish complexion. The woman next to him has a beautiful face, but her expression seems a little dull.
Both of them appear to be in their twenties.
"Captain, this is a team of survivors we found in a large shopping mall, headed by Mr. Jiang."
The muscular man took the woman's hand and came to Ji Youfeng, stretched out his hand and said with a smile:
"After wandering around this city for so long, I finally met an organization!"
"Nice to meet you, Jiang Yuan, this is my wife Yun'er..."
The man called "Mr. Jiang" pointed to the beautiful woman next to him.
"Ji Youfeng."
Ji Youfeng shook hands with him calmly and asked seemingly naturally:
"Have you always stayed in this city?"
Turning to look at the dozens of survivors behind the man, Ji Youfeng could feel the energy fluctuations radiating from their bodies.
These people are all awakened people with superpowers!
Jiang Yuan was stunned when he was questioned directly by Ji Youfeng. He did not expect that the person in front of him was so direct and did not say a polite word.
But Jiang Yuan still said:
"Yes, we are all trapped here after the apocalypse breaks out..."
"The brothers have all awakened their powers, and they are all human beings. They gradually gathered together to survive!"
After saying that, Jiang Yuan also revealed his superpower——
The muscles in his arms were all taut, and his skin was an earthy yellow color, solid and implying strength.
According to the energy fluctuations it releases, Jiang Yuan is clearly an A-level awakener!
Ji Youfeng looked at the woman in white who was always beside him.
Although this woman has a fair complexion and a delicate appearance, her eyes are quite hollow and her expression is dull.
Jiang Yuan opened his mouth and explained:
"Yun'er is my wife. In the apocalypse, something happened... and she became like this."
"She has no powers. I was worried that something would happen to her, so I kept her with me."
The cruel experiences of the apocalypse have led to drastic changes in many people's temperaments, and there are many examples of mental problems.
Ji Youfeng stared at the woman named "Yun'er" and counted her breaths. The latter still looked dull and showed no reaction.
Ji Youfeng looked at Jiang Yuan calmly and said:
"People like you are rare in the last days..."
Jiang Yuan smiled calmly:
"I once promised Yun'er that I would never give up for the rest of my life. This is my promise..."
No matter what kind of oath, nothing can compare to the companionship and support between life and death.
Ji Yue beside her couldn't help but look moved: "It's so romantic..."
Ji Youfeng nodded and looked at the dozens of fellow survivors behind Jiang Yuan.
The dozens of survivors were also chatting with several members of the law enforcement team. Their expressions were normal and there was nothing unusual about their actions.
During the conversation, the hum of vehicle engines came from the distant horizon.
Dozens more search teams rushed back.
A middle-aged man from the law enforcement team came over:
"Mr. Jiang, please come here to register. We also need to learn more about the distribution of zombies around..."
Most of the awakened people walking in the ruins of the city are experienced and stronger than the awakened people in the base.
Therefore, these awakened people searched for in the city are also a force that cannot be ignored.
Jiang Yuan nodded when he heard the words, took the hand of the woman in white next to him, and greeted the dozens of companions who stood up.
However, no one noticed, just across the street.
Mu Qiu, who was wearing a black robe, was leaning against the corner, holding a bag of dried fruits that she had just taken out. She looked at Jiang Yuan and his entourage leaving with narrowed eyes and a smile on her face.
Next to Mu Qiu, a strange pink butterfly circled around Mu Qiu's shoulder.
The girl's melodious laughter came:
"Brother, things are starting to get interesting!"
Mu Qiu threw a piece of dried fruit into her mouth and raised the corners of her mouth slightly:
"Yeah, it's starting to get interesting..."
