The sky was dark yellow, and the thick radiation clouds emitted a deep ominous aura. The cement road was also covered with cracks, and unknown plants struggled to grow in the cracks. It seemed that no matter how the environment changed, life would always find its own way out. The so-called protection of the earth in modern times had always been to protect humans themselves.
After billions of years of ups and downs, environmental changes, continental drift, and meteorite impacts, the Earth was still Earth, but the creatures living on its surface had changed countless times.
Walking on the street, not a single building was intact. All the glass windows had shattered from the impact of the nuclear explosion, and paralyzed cars were strewn all over the street.
" Sss, my old waist. It's not suitable for such intense exercise early in the morning," Li Xing muttered.
Zhao Xue couldn't help but roll her eyes at Li Xing." Cheer up. From now on, your life will be in danger with your weak body.”
Li Xing was so frightened that he became alert.
They crossed the street and slowly moved forward. The zombies were not active during the day. They just stood quietly under the sun to replenish their energy. Therefore, the street was relatively quiet, except for the occasional roars of unknown monsters from afar.
On the streets, one could occasionally see huge streamlined boxes made of unknown materials. According to Zhao Xue, it was the orbital airborne module that the North American Alliance dropped when they attacked Pan-Asia Cooperation. Although she was talking about the historical war in which the city was invaded, there was no anger on her face. She only showed obvious disgust for the war of the predecessors.
In her opinion, the good world was destroyed by such a war. Those countries that fought were simply stupid.
"Has the sky always been like this?”Li Xing looked at the sky that was covered with clouds. The sunlight only leaked through the gaps. The sunlight seemed to be blocked by the clouds, and it looked dark yellow.
"I've been watching for a few days, but the dark clouds haven't dispersed.”
" Those aren't dark clouds, those are radiation dust and radiation clouds." Zhao Xue couldn't help but find it funny. The man in front of her was as naive as she was when she had just left the fallout shelter.
" So we are now exposed to radiation without any protection," Li Xing said, a little afraid. As a modern person, his only impression of radiation was the national riot of iodate salt when the nuclear power plant crashed.
It could be seen from this that people in civilized society were terrified of radiation.
However, Zhao Xue was used to it and did not take her exposure to radiation to heart.
"Alright, don't worry. The PC will constantly monitor the radiation level in your body. As long as the iodine-stored in the PC is not exhausted, the radiation level in your body will not reach the threshold, and you will not mutate and grow three hands and two heads.”
After the passionate morning, Zhao Xue was no longer as mean to Li Xing as before. Instead, she took care of his emotions.
Rubbing his sore waist, Li Xing couldn't help but reminisce. Although Zhao Xue had always been the leader during the event, as a civilized modern person, it was impossible for her to be stronger than the female warrior who walked in the wasteland…
Therefore, it was Li Xing's idea for the two of them to go out together. He couldn't let this little button take the lead forever. At the same time, Li Xing was also very eager for the gene strengthening drug that could make this little girl so powerful.
Therefore, after some discussion, they decided to go to the nearest survivor gathering camp, the town of the six gangs.
Along the way, the two of them chatted non-stop, and Li Xing's understanding of the wasteland increased. However, Zhao Xue did not continue to ask about Li Xing's secret. The two of them who had been at each other's throats at the beginning had finally developed an indescribable trust after experiencing all these things.
……
"Be careful. We have to pass by an area where zombies live. It's a good time for you to practice your marksmanship. Here, I'll give you this."
Zhao Xue handed him a rifle. Li Xing was a little excited after getting the gun. He raised the gun and aimed it everywhere.
"Familiarize yourself with your firearms first. Don't fire casually.”
After saying that, he took out a streamlined rifle from his back. It was very technological.
Seeing Li Xing's curious gaze, Zhao Xue raised her gun and explained,
"Ziwei Star No. 1, medium and short-range laser rifle, noiseless, high-precision weapon against zombies. However, you want to improve your shooting skills, so it's better to use kinetic weapons.”
After saying that, he pointed at the rifle in Li Xing's hand." T100 Gauss Rifle, fast firing speed, fierce firepower, large capacity, and sturdy leather. Even if you use the butt to fight zombies, you usually don't need to repair it. The firearm safety is on the right side, at the back. Be careful to turn it off when you're not using it.”
Li Xing carefully examined this futuristic high-tech rifle and found a symbol on the handle.
H (Symbol of Pan-Asia Cooperation)
The two of them walked on the empty street. Occasionally, small mutated creatures would jump out of the street and scare Li Xing, making him extremely nervous.
Mutated rats the size of hyenas would often pass through the shadows of the streets in search of food. Cockroaches the size of wild cats would suddenly jump out and wave their antennae at the two of them, hissing before slowly retreating into the shadows. The fine cilia on their bodies could kill people with trypophobia on the spot.
"Don't worry about these reptiles. Although they've grown a lot after mutating, they still retain their fear of humans. As long as you don't attack them, they won't attack you.”
" Be careful of the square in front. That's where zombies usually gather. Follow me," Zhao Xue said and turned to walk into a dilapidated building.
"It's safe. Come in! Zombies were not very active during the day because they had lost the God virus in their brains. They needed a stable environment to photosynthesize. Ha, what a joke. These monsters were much more adapted to the apocalypse than humans.”
After a while, Zhao Xue found a good shooting angle. Through the window, Li Xing saw that the square in front of the building was not small. There were hundreds of zombies standing there, not moving at all.
The shriveled body and rotten face were enough to make anyone from a civilized society have nightmares for days.
Li Xing raised his gun and adjusted his posture, silently recalling the shooting essentials that Zhao Xue had mentioned. He took a deep breath. At that moment, a gust of wind blew in his face, bringing with it a strong rotten smell from the zombies in the square.
" Ugh!" Li Xingcui was caught off guard and took a deep breath. He felt his mind go blank and his internal organs churned. He turned around and vomited everything he had eaten in the morning.
" Are you okay? Why don't we forget about today?" Zhao Xue looked at Li Xing worriedly.
" No, I'm okay." Li Xing wiped the corner of his mouth and returned to the shooting corner.
"If I can't even overcome this small difficulty, how can I conquer the apocalypse?”His eyes became determined. Looking at the rotting head in the scope, Li Xing pulled the trigger without hesitation.
"Bang!"
