Chapter 149:
After saying goodbye to Hao Ren, Qin Yi and Gong Xiao continued to walk towards the subway entrance.
This time they were more careful, and tried to walk beside the building, relying on the shelter of the building, so that the flying insects in the sky could not see them so easily.
Occasionally one or two flew by, but they did not come down to attack them.
After solving a monster again, Qin Yi broke the silence and said softly, "The world we have experienced really exists."
Those previous worlds were not places she had been to before, so despite her suspicions, she could still treat the humans in them as NPCs. This kind of thinking is actually to reduce the guilt after killing the aborigines.
But this time, she could no longer deceive herself.
"It doesn't matter, it's all forced." Gong Xiao tilted his head to look at her, smiled slightly, and said, "No one is more important than your own life. It's better to be selfish."
Qin Yi smiled, "Although I said that, if Hao Ren was a little bit selfish, we would have had to work hard just now to survive."
"Probably," Gong Xiao paused and said lightly, "That's why he wasn't selected by the game."
Hao Ren was obviously a really good person, and he wasn't even wary of others. He didn't even take such strange lies that Gong Xiao and Qin Yi made up.
Perhaps it was because, at least by Hao Ren's side, the humans he knew had already united and fought desperately against mutant creatures, so there were not so many messy fights between humans.
But with such a character, in the game world, it is easy to die in the task of forcing players to confront, and probably can't survive the intermediate task.
Well, not being picked by the game is a good thing for him.
Qin Yi didn't think much about the task world, she said, "If everything goes well, I'll be at the subway station in a few minutes."
Originally, I wanted to ask if I wanted to find something to eat nearby, but then I thought about it, Hao Ren just came out to find supplies. Obviously, he and his friends should stay nearby temporarily. Give them the best.
As long as you go to the subway station, you can go to the hospital quickly, and you don't have to rush to find food. Anyway, they can leave after completing the task, but the aborigines have to live in this world for a long time.
A few minutes later, the subway entrance appeared in front of the two of them.
The virus broke out in the middle of the night, so there was no one in the subway station. Although the subway station has always been one of the most crowded places, there is not a single monster in sight at this time.
The two quickened their pace and ran towards the subway entrance. Qin Yi said, "As long as we can walk through here smoothly, we will soon be able to complete the task!"
This is the most optimistic idea. Although she said so, she faintly felt that the task could not be so simple.
Sure enough, Qin Yi's heart sank the moment he walked to the stairs and saw the situation below -
From the stairs all the way down, as far as you can see, all are insect eggs!
These worm eggs are far larger than those Qin Yi had seen before, and any one of them is more than half a meter in diameter!
Not only that, but at the end of the stairs, Qin Yi faintly saw a jet-black thing that was squirming.
"It's a giant snake." Gong Xiao said in a deep voice, grabbing Qin Yi's wrist, pulling her around and leaving.
It took a while for the goose bumps on Qin Yi's arm to disappear. When the two walked to a newsstand, Gong Xiaocai said, "Let's go over."
There are many places on the road that are blocked, and one of the blocking factors is the car.
From a distance you can see that most of those cars have been damaged. Some cars burned, others were deformed, and even many windows were broken, and they were covered with large and small insect eggs.
Even if you find a good car that you can drive, it's probably not easy to drive in this kind of congestion.
Maybe it's slower than walking, and the target of the car is bigger than two people. Once the swarm finds it, it will be troublesome.
Qin Yi took a map of the city from the newsstand by the way, and the two walked slowly to their destination along the buildings along the street.
There are a lot of monsters on the road, and the two basically have to deal with a few after walking for a few minutes. In addition, the plan has changed, and they have to find something to eat along the way.
But they didn't know if all the food around had been found by Hao Ren and the others. Until the sky became darker, the two of them couldn't find anything to eat. They had to stop and choose where to stay at night.
They chose a small bookstore with rolling shutter doors. When Gong Xiao picked the lock, Qin Yi turned his back to him and paid attention to the movement around him. Suddenly, she saw a large group of flying insects flying out of the building opposite.
Hao Ren had said that the monsters were most active after dark. It's just a little darker now, and so much has appeared.
She stepped back a little, tried her best to reduce her sense of existence, and whispered to Gong Xiao, "The bugs are active."
Gong Xiao responded, and with the last force in his hand, the door lock was successfully destroyed by him.
He pulled up the door halfway and walked in first, bowed and looked at it before saying to Qin Yi, "It's safe, come in."
Qin Yi entered the door and pressed down the rolling shutter again. Gong Xiao moved the cabinet next to him and pressed the edge, so that the door was completely closed. As long as you are not very careful, even if there are monsters or humans passing by outside, you should not think that there are people inside.
But that's not enough. Taking advantage of the light from the rear window, they tore off the inner pages of the books and compacted all the gaps under the door. Then they put the suction-type lamp on the wall to turn it on, and then pushed the bookcase to close the window. Also covered.
Behind the window is the interior of the community. Before covering it up, you could see some wandering monsters, but they didn't find anyone here.
The small bookstore is really very small. The left side is a bookcase against the wall, and the right side is a shelf for hanging some copybooks and other commodities. In the middle, there are two wooden boards with small stools occupying two-thirds of the space. Full of various journals.
In order to facilitate their movement, the two had to put the board away, and after finishing everything, they put the board on the ground to sleep.
After everything was done, Qin Yi felt a little hungry when he sat down.
At this time, some messy sounds began to come from outside, including the sound of flying insects flapping their wings, and the sounds of various monsters on the land.
In the midst of these noises, Qin Yi's stomach also growled slightly.
She glanced at Gong Xiao awkwardly, took out the half bottle of mineral water she found earlier from the storage ring, and asked, "Do you want to drink it?"
Gong Xiao shook his head, Qin Yi unscrewed the bottle cap, smelled it first, and then took a small sip carefully. There is no strange taste, it should be just a bottle of mineral water that has been drunk.
After filling her stomach with water, she was afraid that she would be hungry again, so she lay down and said, "I'm going to bed first, good night."
As soon as Qin Yi closed his eyes, he felt something fall beside him and made a slight noise.
She opened her eyes and saw a small bag of chocolate lying on her right side.
Qin Yi sat up and looked at Gong Xiao, and handed him something: "I'm not hungry, so don't give it to me."
"Eat, I still have it here." Gong Xiao didn't answer, he turned to face the wall and closed his eyes.
Qin Yi shook his head helplessly, put down his things, turned off the lights, and fell asleep.
Hungry for a day is nothing to any healthy and normal person, and once you fall asleep, you will not feel any more.
But for Qin Yi and Gong Xiao, it became difficult to fall asleep.
They are used to being vigilant at all times, and the roars, fights, screams of those monsters outside are big and small, near and far, and sometimes there are even footsteps passing by outside the rolling shutter door.
Qin Yi was so disturbed that he couldn't sleep at all, and even if he was drowsy, he would be woken up as soon as he fell asleep.
So, the long night became difficult.
From time to time, her stomach made a low growl, and she had gone from embarrassment to no change in her heart.
Qin Yi turned over and thought to himself, I don't know what time it is now. After walking for a long time, I should have walked at least a third of the way. If there is no accident, maybe I will be there before dark tomorrow. Near the hospital...
"Didn't fall asleep?"
In the darkness, a low male voice came, interrupting Qin Yi's thoughts.
She responded and said, "It's too noisy outside, you haven't fallen asleep yet?"
There was a slight movement in the darkness, it seemed that Gong Xiao was sitting up.
He said, "We'll find food tomorrow, so let's eat the chocolate first."
Qin Yi also sat up and reached out to turn on the light on the wall. The bright light stimulated her to close her eyes.
Gong Xiao opened the piece of chocolate and handed it to Qin Yi.
Qin Yi looked at him for a while before taking it, then divided it into two and handed it to him.
Originally, there was only a little bit of chocolate the length of a thumb, so it was almost not enough to fill the gap between the teeth.
After eating, I seem to feel more hungry.
Qin Yi leaned against the wall, looked at Gong Xiao by the opposite wall, and said, "I can't sleep anyway, let's talk."
Gong Xiao nodded, thought about it, and asked, "Why were you in the hospital at that time?"
Qin Yi was stunned for a moment, reached out to touch his hair subconsciously, and smiled: "I'm sick, so I was hospitalized in the hospital. I didn't expect to encounter such an incredible thing... Speaking of which, I still remember that this virus was It's called the bear child virus."
At that time, people didn't realize the seriousness of the matter. The joke was because the virus was previously spread among underage children with low resistance, and it had nothing to do with the virus itself.
No one expected that the virus would cause the world to become what it is now.
What Qin Yi did not expect was that when others died or fled because of the virus, she would be reborn because of the virus.
