He had successfully advanced to the fourth gene lock.
Xu Qiu was in a good mood.
The more Xu Qiu looked at his new ability, the more satisfied he became.
Perhaps it was because the giant scythe itself was a part of his body.
He, who had never come into contact with such a weapon, had actually mastered it in just two hours.
Furthermore,
The method to summon and recall the blood-red scythe was also very simple.
All he needed to do was give the order in his mind.
However, every time he released it and retracted it, Xu Qiu would feel a wave of fatigue.
Obviously,
This ability required a lot of stamina.
However...
With his current physical strength,
Even if he was exhausted, he would only need an hour to fully recover.
As long as it was not used continuously,
This consumption was nothing to Xu Qiu.
"Not bad."
"Looks like I won't need to change my weapon frequently in the future.”
Xu Qiu muttered.
One had to know,
All weapons in Doomsday City had a durability limit. Whether it was guns or military sabers, they would be damaged after being used a certain number of times.
This kind of damage was often accompanied by a decline in the power and performance of the weapon, which was very fatal for survivors who were constantly walking between life and death.
Therefore, if possible, most survivors would prepare two to three weapons in their backpacks in case of emergency.
And now…
Xu Qiu didn't need to have such concerns.
As he thought about it, he looked down at the time. It was eight in the morning.
"It's time to return to the surface."
Thinking of this,
Xu Qiu returned to his room and started packing.
He walked out of the hut.
He took one last look at the depths of Shelter.
There was still endless darkness inside.
For some reason, Xu Qiu felt a dangerous aura from inside.
This was also the reason why he did not continue to explore deeper.
His intuition told him,
There must be some huge secret hidden in there.
However,
He couldn't take the risk now.
"In the future, when I break through the seventh gene lock, I'll consider coming over.”
Xu Qiu thought to himself.
Then, he turned around and slowly walked towards the exit of Shelter.
Twenty minutes later.
Xu Qiu came to the place where he first entered the cave. The Hunter Spider's corpse was still quietly curled up there, and the rotten smell became stronger.
This made him subconsciously quicken his pace.
However…
When he reached the exit of Shelter,
However, a strange red light shone in from the direction of the door.
The moment he saw this strange red light,
Xu Qiu's heart trembled.
An uneasy expression appeared on his face.
As a survivor who had lived in Doomsday City for five years,
Xu Qiu knew exactly what that strange red light represented.
It was a sign of slaughter, panic, and…ominous signs.
Xu Qiu clenched his fists and hesitated for a few seconds before deciding to leave.
Breaking the gene lock had cost him too many resources, and he only had enough food to last him a day.
Thinking of this,
Xu Qiu stepped forward.
He had barely taken two steps when a strong smell of blood assailed his nose.
The pungent smell made Xu Qiu feel a strong physiological discomfort.
However, he did not stop.
Finally,
He walked out of Shelter. Xu Qiu did not feel happy after seeing the sun again.
On the contrary,
At this moment, the sky of Doomsday City was no longer as gloomy and dark as before. Instead, it was filled with scarlet.
The entire sky seemed to be dyed red with blood.
The air was filled with an ominous aura.
"As expected…it really is the Scarlet Sun.”
The Crimson Sun was a unique phenomenon in Doomsday City. When this phenomenon appeared, the sky would turn red like blood, and the air would be filled with the smell of blood.
During this period of time, all the mutated beasts would become abnormally violent.
They would have even more terrifying perception, and once they sensed the existence of survivors, they would not rest until one of them was dead.
Not only that,
The arrival of the Scarlet Day was often accompanied by an even more terrifying disaster…
Super zombie tide!
In Doomsday City, the number of zombies would multiply by dozens of times, and the probability of elite zombies appearing would increase.
Without a doubt,
The Scarlet Day was the nightmare and disaster of the survivors.
Every time this day came, a large number of survivors would die.
However…
Just as Xu Qiu was thinking about his next move,
A beast-like roar suddenly came from behind him.
"Hiss…Roar!"
At the same time,
Xu Qiu's body reacted instinctively.
He drew his spear.
She turned around.
Headshot.
His actions were done in one go.
A zombie that had just opened its bloody mouth and wanted to bite Xu Qiu fell to the ground.
Looking at the badly mutilated zombie that had been shot in the head by him, he frowned.
He had found this pistol in a small room in Shelter.
Originally, he wanted to exchange it for points.
However, he did not expect it to be of use at this time.
Looking at the bloody footprints on the ground, it seemed like they came from inside Shelter.
So,
That zombie should have come out of the bomb shelter.
But why didn't he discover anything when he walked out just now?
Just as he was feeling puzzled,
A new zombie appeared in the Shelter.
One.
Two.
Three.
...
In just a few seconds,
Dozens of zombies had already appeared within Xu Qiu's sight.
Seeing this,
He did not stay where he was.
These zombies wouldn't give him any rewards, and they were as numerous as cockroaches.
It was clearly not a wise move to be entangled with such a thing.
However, when Xu Qiu turned around, he found that he was surrounded by zombies.
They walked, ran, crawled, or used their hands to support their remaining upper bodies.
They were like hungry beasts.
They rushed towards Xu Qiu like crazy.
Seeing the scene in front of him,
For some reason, Xu Qiu recalled the scene of his parents 'deaths.
It was also a zombie tide,
It was the same endless stream of zombies.
However…
The current him…
He was no longer the ordinary person who could only watch his parents die five years ago.
In front of him…
The zombie tide surged towards him like a tidal wave.
Xu Qiu slowly raised his right arm.
With a thought.
His right arm suddenly changed. Countless dark red and black colors that looked like pythons began to intertwine and tangle.
In the next second.
A huge blood-red sickle appeared on Xu Qiu's right arm.
