doomsday lamb

The front of the team was filled with smoke and dust, which quickly attracted the attention of others.

"Lang Hua!" Lan Xi's eyes widened and she looked at the standing figure.

But while she was distracted, a lean mutant wild wolf opened its huge mouth and pounced ferociously from the side.

"Dang!" "Crack——"

The wolf's teeth smashed into an ice shield, and the edges of the broken ice were sharp, leaving a lot of blood on the wolf's face. The lean wild wolf felt pain immediately, bared its teeth, and stared at Li Liping with hatred.

The culprit.

However, Li Liping was not afraid at all. In the blink of an eye, several more ice picks were fired at her, forcing the wild wolves to retreat and avoid. It must be said that these four wild wolves were only better because of their extremely fast speed. Because they had not awakened their abilities, they were not as good as that one.

The female wolf is just as difficult to deal with. But Li Liping's current main task is still to protect the safety of the ordinary evolvers in the team, so she still has to leave it to Lan Xi.

Dazzling white light fell from the sky, grazing the wild wolf's body and piercing into the ground.

"Sword Shadow!"

Lan Xi held the Meishuang Sword and stabbed it seven times in a short period of time. Most of the sword rays did not miss, penetrating under the wild wolf's fur and drawing out copious amounts of blood.

The wild wolf showed fear for the first time. Although he still bared his teeth, his expression was fierce and his heart was filled with anger.

Just now, Lan Xi was distracted and attacked. Although she was not injured, this kind of mistake could obviously be avoided. It was her concern that caused chaos, and she was confused for a while, which gave this beast an opportunity.

Thinking of this, Lan Xi couldn't help feeling ashamed. The sword moves in her hands became even more fierce, and the plum frost sword flashed out afterimages, gradually blocking the lean wolf's retreat!

She was originally a speed-type evolver. She has mastered the fast sword, and now she is even more handy after awakening the ability "Sword Shadow". Lan Xi has always kept in mind the teachings of her master - a swordsman does not need to pay attention to being the first, as long as he finds the flaw and takes action

It’s a sure kill!

The four mutated wild wolves were gradually separated in different directions by the ability users. Compared to Lan Xi, Haiping seemed to have full firepower from the beginning. Tang Hengdao shot out both swords, and the blades were extremely capable of breaking armor.

.Although the wild wolf is extremely fast, as long as Hai Ping seizes the opportunity, it will only end up being chopped.

The knife wounds were one after another, each one deeper and more painful than the last. The wild wolf he was fighting had lost all will to fight, and was whimpering and just wanted to escape from this terrible man. But the other party kept holding on to it.

He held on, his cold expression full of disregard for life.

Some wolves are alive, but it is already dead. Hai Ping will never let it leave alive. If it were not for fear of its dying counterattack, perhaps this wolf would have surrendered long ago and become the soul of Hai Ping's sword.

Lang Hua is very lucky. The two close combat abilities of "Sword Light" and "Sword Shadow" fully utilize the talents of Hai Ping and Lan Xi. They are simply tailor-made for them.

"Bang bang." "Ouch——"

The battlefield at the end of the team was bustling with noise at this moment.

Unlike new ability users like the Swordsmen and Swordsman, Lei Li, who was in the early stage of the second level, had been able to fend off two wild wolves on his own from the very beginning. Even with one against two, ordinary mutant wolves could not be Lei Li's opponent.

And there is Brother Xia Qing

With my younger sister guarding Qin Xiaowen, and Li Liping and Duan Hei protecting the others, Lei Li was naturally able to let go and fight. Zonghe's punches were continuous, and even without the energy blessing, he beat the two wild wolves until they howled.

.

As a second-level ability user, Lei Li is very clear about the level of Lang Hua's combat power. Therefore, Lei Li has more confidence in Lang Hua than Lan Xi, even if Lang Hua and the other three were unprepared for a moment and suffered a heavy loss.

, and he was not worried about the outcome of this battle.

At the front of the team, Lang Hua stood up from the smoke. Little did he know that Lei Li had placed such high hopes on him. While resisting the thunder, his upper limb muscles suffered an electric shock, causing Lang Hua's arms to tremble and he could hardly hold the heavy weight.

The Mo Dao.

Looking carefully, the originally bright white blade has been oxidized to an ugly bluish-black color due to the erosion of the current. The blue-purple blade glow that was finally produced after tempering has also become extremely dark at this time.

The energy of thunder and lightning has always been extremely powerful. If this was not a strengthened steel knife, it might be melted by the high temperature at this moment.

Lang Hua had to admit that he was careless this time.

These beasts have been fighting and fighting outside all year round, and a lot of acquired training has resulted in their excellent fighting awareness, which is much stronger than most humans. In the early days of the disaster, a large number of humans died in the battles with the black corpses and black beasts, and this was one of the reasons.

And he didn't expect that this female wolf would have two evolutionary abilities.

With both offensive lightning skills and defensive skills, his combat effectiveness is comparable to that of a human second-level ability user.

In the thirteen years since the disaster, the evolution speed of black beasts has always been one step faster than that of humans. Lang Hua is fully aware of this!

"Whoosh——" "Shen Nian, gather!"

"Boom."

Three more bolts of thunder struck, but this time Yang Bensheng was well prepared. The energy of the thunder that hit the wall of air subsided, and the next moment it turned around and sprayed back towards the she-wolf.

This time was really beyond the she-wolf's expectation. The power of the "returning without success" thunder light was not reduced, making her hair stand on end and she was in a panic for a while.

"I'm fine." Lang Hua winked to the side, "Uncle Lin, give me those two Miao knives!"

"Okay!"

Lang Hua jumped up, caught the two knives and fell back to the ground. The two Miao knives were collectibles they found in a house on the way. Lang Hua had just recovered from a serious illness, and only half of his strength had been restored. He needed to use more

Only with lightweight weapons can you have an advantage in battle.

As for Mo Dao, which was damaged by lightning, he temporarily stuck it on the ground aside.

"We are going together this time, we must fight quickly." Lang Hua stared at the she-wolf and narrowed his eyes, "You help me, I want to see how many trump cards it has!"

At first, Lang Hua thought he was just encountering a group of mutated wolves, but he didn't expect that it turned out to be a few tough enemies. Now he had to go all out!

"Xinghuo-draw the ground as a prison!"

Lin Wenjin took the lead, pulling the fire energy from virtual to solid with both hands. Everyone felt that the air around them seemed to become hotter. Wild wolves have always been one of the most sensitive animals to danger. The female wolf seemed to feel something. She looked around

All around, he kept scratching the ground with his front paws, looking very anxious.

Just when it hesitated between advancing and retreating, wanting to make a desperate move and fight to the death, a wall of fire rose up against the tip of its nose. For a moment, the female wolf became gray and gray, and the originally white wolf fur on her cheeks became curled and charred. It again

Shocked and angry, this time it was almost cooked by the flames!

The wall of fire took root on the ground, surrounded the circular area where the female wolf was, and rose to a height of more than two meters. From the outside, it really looked like an uncovered prison of flames. Unless the female wolf could get wings, how could she escape?

But this is just what ordinary people think. After a few seconds, the flame prison suddenly swelled, as if the water was blown by a strong wind, and as if a beast was about to break free from the sack. The next moment, the she-wolf actually jumped out through the wall of fire! Sure enough, it was still blocked.

Don't stop it!

But at this moment, Lin Wenjin stepped forward to greet him!

"You're the one I've been waiting for!"

He shouted loudly, raised his arms in a "V" shape, and a blazing white flamingo suddenly appeared from behind him. The big bird was composed of materialized energy flames. As soon as it appeared, it swooped towards the female wolf. Super

The high temperature burned the air into steam. As expected, all the dead branches and leaves along the way were ignited.

In a flash of lightning, the firebird collided head-on with the she-wolf, directly "sending" each other back into the prison of flames.

"Divinity-Control!"

Yang Bensheng took action at this moment, and the flame prison was pulled by it and suddenly collapsed rapidly inside. Not only did the flames wrap the she-wolf inside within seconds, but it also triggered a violent explosion.

explode!

Lang Hua also predicted the opportunity, picked up the sword and ran away. When the flames dissipated, it was time for him to cut down the Miao sword!

But at this moment, a figure jumped out of the explosion again. Lang Hua was shocked and hurriedly turned his body to avoid it, so as not to collide with it.

"not good!"

Lang Hua suddenly realized that this female wolf was not simply a success, her target was actually Lin Wenjin!

If you want to say who among the ability users present it hates the most, of course it has to be the fire ability user Lin Wenjin!

Yang Bensheng obviously realized this, but he was at another point on the diagonal, and it was too late for rescue!

"Get out of the way!"

Lin Wenjin rolled to the side in response, but was still slapped on the shoulder by the huge wolf claws, which made three long bloody mouths.

"Go to hell! Maimang!"

"brush--"

After he landed, he didn't care about dealing with the bloody wound. He sat up and took out his hand crossbow and fired three shots in succession. The slender crossbow arrows were extremely sharp. Drawn by the skill "Maimang" and Lin Wenjin's will, they shot towards the target as if they were laser-guided.

The face of the she-wolf!

"Ouch!"

The she-wolf turned her head to avoid it at the critical moment, but was stabbed in the shoulder blade by a crossbow arrow. The arrow penetrated two inches into the flesh, making it furious.

The crossbow arrows failed to cause much damage, but Lin Wenjin suddenly discovered to his surprise that the she-wolf's defense ability was broken!

"Seize the opportunity, its defense capability is gone!"

Lin Wenjin warned aloud, but Lang Hua moved one step faster. He held two swords and appeared next to the she-wolf like a ghost. His swords were sharp and he slashed fiercely.

Blood splattered, wolves howled horribly, and the outcome was a foregone conclusion...

All four wild wolves had died at the hands of the ability users, and this female wolf had also suffered a broken bowel and was dying. The only strange thing was that the alpha wolf never appeared from the beginning to the end.

"Brother Lang, come here quickly!"

It was Xiao Heizi's voice. After the battle, he was ordered to go to the front to investigate, and he expected to find something.

People were being attracted by Duan Hei's call, but unexpectedly the she-wolf propped up her body and ran forward unsteadily. Lang Hua and others were worried that Duan Hei was in danger and hurried to follow, but they saw a scene that shocked them extremely.

scene...

Corpses, animal carcasses are everywhere in the jungle, and everywhere you look are stumps and broken arms. These corpses are extremely broken, it is not an exaggeration to say that they are fragments. Among them are wild wolves and the macaques that Lang Hua had seen before.

"Ah, is it a monkey? A mutant beast?"

"Stay away, it's the Necromorph."

After Lang Hua issued the warning, people saw that most of the red-faced macaques with brown-yellow hair on the ground had already fallen off. The skin of many macaques had ulcerated, exposing dark red muscles, but they were definitely not affected by other creatures.

It was caused by biting. Even the few remaining heads still had their gray-brown monkey eyes wide open at this time, and their mouths opened and closed in front of everyone, as if they were eager to bite everyone.

"Re-engraved-Wind Blade."

With two "clicks", Lang Hua activated two dart-shaped wind blades and smashed the two monkey heads into pieces without expression.

He turned around and ordered: "Haiping, Lan Xi, check to see if these things on the ground are dead."

"Yes." "Yes, leader."

"There are six wolf corpses and at least 30 monkey corpses," Lin Wenjin sighed. "It seems that there was a big battle here not long ago."

"Chief, come and see."

Hearing Xiao Heizi's call, people continued to walk forward, and saw the female wolf standing in front of a soil cave confronting the crowd. The things in the cave had been taken out by Xiao Heizi, but they did not expect that it was a wolf cub.

cub.

The wolf cub has gray-brown hair and is only as big as two palms. It is protected by the mother wolf at the moment. It looks like it has not yet opened its eyes, as if it has just been born. The mother wolf wrinkles its nose and bares its teeth in a threatening manner.

"Woo" sound, but due to the severe injuries, he seemed a bit strong on the outside but dry on the inside.

"Perhaps the wolves wanted to protect the female wolf who was giving birth to her cubs, so they had to conflict with the corpse monkeys." Lei Li was well-informed and quickly guessed the truth of the matter.

Lan Xi also reported back at this time: "The corpses have been cleaned up. There are 6 mutated wild wolves, one of which should be the alpha wolf. As for the monkeys that were torn into pieces, they are all necromorphs without exception."

Yang Bensheng suddenly asked: "Xiaohua, when you returned to Shashi from here before, have you ever encountered these corpse monkeys?"

"That's not true. There was a group of mutated monkeys blocking the way, but I used a detonator to scare them away." Lang Hua recalled, "I think these should be the same group."

In the days since Lang Hua left, some kind of accident happened to the group of macaques in the jungle, and all of them turned into corpses.

This makes people take a deep breath, knowing that this was once a whole herd of black beasts. This situation makes people recall the nightmare that happened on the night of "Advent"...

Lei Li shook his head and said: "Wolves have a strong sense of community and always attach importance to protecting their cubs, not to mention that the one currently giving birth is the mate of the alpha wolf."

"Xiaohua, can you...let them go?"

Lin Qian came closer, her expression seemed to be unbearable.

Since entering the jungle, Lang Hua discovered that "Red-haired Lin Qian" was gradually hiding. Whether Lang Hua's threat was effective or the second personality withdrew after the danger subsided, the initiative was once again handed over to the real Lin Qian.

Akane's hands are always a good thing.

It's just that this Lin Qian doesn't seem to remember clearly what happened after she went crazy, and she was always in a daze along the way.

"They encountered a group of corpse monkeys, and then encountered us. Now they are dead and injured, which is already very pitiful..."

"What's so pitiful? They want to eat us!" Xiao Heizi was outspoken and blurted out what was in his mind.

Lin Wenjin also nodded and said: "Yes, if we had not been more powerful, we would be just a pile of withered bones now."

"But..." Lin Qian said anxiously.

"It's not that I don't want to," Lang Hua shook his head slightly and interrupted her, pointing at the female wolf and said, "It was severely infected by the corpse poison and is already dead."

"ah."

Qin Xiaowen suddenly let out a soft cry and hid behind Xia Shuang in fear. She grabbed her sleeve and pointed at the female wolf and said, "Its eyes have turned red!"

When people looked, they saw the female wolf's sunken eye sockets and a pair of dark red and purple pupils. Its upper and lower rows of teeth kept fighting, saliva slowly dripped from its mouth, and the wounds on its front paws were already ulcerated and turned black.

On the wound, the blue-purple lines are clearly visible, and they seem to be gradually connected along the blood vessels to the body of the female wolf!

"Ho ho."

When people saw this, they couldn't help but take a step back, and Lang Hua also suddenly concentrated his attention.

"No, it's going to turn into a corpse!" He said solemnly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the she-wolf that had transformed into a corpse beast jumped towards him. Lang Hua took half a step back, holding a knife in one hand to block between the two rows of wolf fangs, and the hard objects collided and rubbed, making a "squeaking" sound.

People can't help but have sore teeth.

"Lang Hua!"

"Death!" Lang Hua had quick eyesight and quick hands. He decisively took out a pistol with his other hand and stuffed it directly into the wolf's mouth.

The bullet penetrated the soft connective tissue, penetrated the skull in the blink of an eye and flew backwards. With a "bang", the wolf corpse hit the fallen leaves hard, making a muffled sound.

"Is Xiaohua okay? It was really dangerous just now." Lin Wenjin recalled the scene just now and couldn't help but feel cold sweat for Lang Hua.

"It's nothing. Fortunately, we are here this time..." Lang Hua suddenly said as he looked at the female wolf that was transformed into a corpse and then killed.

"What?" Lin Wenjin frowned in confusion, and soon figured out the key. Others seemed to have thought of something, and fell silent for a moment.

Yes, for the female wolf, it doesn't matter whether she can defeat the ability users. The point is

The corpse poison is about to attack, and no one can save it.

And if the team lets them leave, there may be a scene of fratricide in the near future. After all, the zombies are irrational, and there are many cases of devouring their former companions.

"In this difficult world, perhaps it would be a better outcome to have your life ended by your loved ones in your sleep." Among the crowd, Duan Qing thought silently in her heart.

"Of course, as long as the two of us meet, we will never be able to live in peace." Lang Hua comforted the others, "The relationship between us and the black corpse and the black beast is between predator and prey, and this will never change.

If it weren’t for the fact that there are still many ability users in the team, it might have already entered people’s stomachs and become a feast for evolutionaries to replenish their energy.”

After hearing Lang Hua's explanation, people's faces looked much better. But now there are corpses all around, and the smell of decay is not good, making people feel vaguely nauseated.

"The canine teeth are well developed, and the limbs are strong and powerful. If it weren't for this accident, he might have been the wolf king of the generation." Yang Bensheng was squatting next to a strong wolf corpse, and he couldn't help but sigh while observing.

This wolf is nearly two meters long and seems to weigh 70 kilograms. Its fur is smooth and white. It is more majestic and beautiful than any other wolf present. It is estimated that its evolutionary level is not low. But at this time, it is white

The soft fur was stained with blood, the wolf's head was tilted to one side, and its eyes were closed. Its body was curled up into a soft ball, and it was unknown how tragic a battle it had been during its lifetime.

Presumably he is the father of the wolves, the alpha male of the pack.

And even such a powerful wolf still died under the siege of the corpse monkeys... People couldn't help but shudder when they thought of this.

"A group of corpse monkeys...are they really that scary?" Duan Qing asked blankly among the crowd.

"It's much scarier than we can imagine. Compared with black corpses, the corpse beasts produced after the transformation of animals are relatively more difficult to deal with. They are flexible in body and agile in movement, and can often launch sudden attacks on other creatures without being restricted by the environment.

Attack. The current group of black corpses may only surround and chase, but corpse monkeys have a natural fighting advantage in the jungle. Imagine that if you cannot attack the corpse monkeys, the opponent can jump from the branches and vines in all directions.

If you launch an attack on your back, will this situation be tiring to deal with?"

Lang Hua shook his head to himself and continued: "If the wolves had made up their mind to escape when they first encountered the group of corpse monkeys, they might still be able to get rid of these guys..."

His explanation made Lin Wenjin suddenly enlightened. The next moment, the latter took over and said: "But the wolves never thought about escaping from the beginning. The apocalypse has suddenly occurred, and past experience is no longer useful. The wolves did not expect that they would be captured.

On a day when the prey is being hunted in turn, it is unexpected that the macaques, which have always been fond of eating bananas, will now be very interested in their own flesh and blood."

"Besides, the female alpha wolf is giving birth. Even if they suffer a big loss in the first encounter, the wolves have no room to retreat." Lin Wenjin shook his head and said no more.

He didn't need to tell what happened next, everyone could guess a rough idea.

Lin Wenjin is actually right. Wild wolves do not have the wisdom of humans, nor do they have the reminder of the "Sirian Wolf Prophecy Post", so they do not know that the life gate of the necromorph is at the back of the head. It is different from the usual way of dying gradually if the throat is bitten.

The prey is different, and the vitality of the necromorph is beyond the imagination of wild wolves.

Just imagine, if just when you bite the prey's throat and sigh that the battle is over, the other party turns around and bites you in the face. The prey that was eaten has now turned into a monster that loves flesh and blood. Would you feel sad?

fear?

Although mutant wolves are powerful, those necromorphs that have no fear and are not afraid of death are even more difficult to deal with. As long as their brain core is not damaged, even if only half of their body is left, they will crawl over and hope to bite you on the leg.

One bite.

Thinking of this, Xia Shuang couldn't help but tremble.

In fact, when the wolves discovered that the only way to kill their opponents was to tear them into pieces, the hard fight had already begun.

And long before the battle heated up, the bravest wild wolves, who were also the first to come into contact with the zombie monkeys, had been bitten by the zombies in many places.

The more corpse poison wounds there are, the faster they will die. This is common sense in the apocalypse.

The reason why necromorphs are terrifying is not only because of their tenacious vitality, lack of fear, and fear of life and death, but also because of the biochemical poison that poses the greatest threat to hidden parasites at this stage - spore corpse poison.

No one can care less about the siege of a group of zombie beasts. This is true for ability users, and the evolved alpha wolf is no exception.

When the crowd was silent, Lin Qian, with the help of Duan Hei, had already picked out all the wolf cubs from the cave. There were three in the litter, but the other two wolves had unfortunately died due to premature birth.

"What should we do with the remaining little guy?" Lin Qian frowned and asked as she looked at the broken corpses lying around.

The female alpha wolf joined the fight after giving birth, so there were fewer wounds. Although the survival of the female wolf proved that this battle was a tragic victory for the wolves, no one can guarantee that there will not be other corpses in the jungle.

exist.

The surviving wolf cub cowered on the haystack with its head and tiger head, which made people reluctant to leave it here to fend for itself.

Lin Qian begged: "Leave it to Xiaoxiao. Xiaoxiao used to like puppies very much."

She pulled Yang Xiaoxiao to Xiaolang, but the latter was like a puppet on strings, letting her play with it, but there was no response.

"What should we do with these corpses?" Lan Xi asked Lang Hua for instructions.

"We don't need to worry about this. There is no shortage of scavenging zombies in the jungle. Look for any useful crystal cores and pack them up before leaving. As for this she-wolf..." Lang Hua avoided Lin Qian's eager gaze and said,

He sighed and said, "Find a good place and bury it."

When they fled, they didn't have the conditions to be laid to rest. Now that they were about to arrive at the base, they made an exception.

Lang Hua sighed in his heart and looked at Yang Xiaoxiao, who was squatting in a corner like a patient in a daze. Others found an open space with light and worked hard to dig up the soil. Yang Xiaoxiao looked at these people in a daze, wondering if he remembered

His mother was buried on the hillside.

My uncle said that when she was alive, my mother... liked sunny places the most.

Someone squatted down close to him, and Yang Xiaoxiao slowly turned back.

Qin Xiaowen next to her turned her head, tried her best to smile gently, and said, "Look, this little guy is very cute. Let him accompany you through this period, what do you think... okay?"

She held the little wolf in her hand and raised it to Yang Xiaoxiao as if to please. The little wolf let out a cry at this time and opened its eyes. Among the gray-brown fur, the eyes were as bright as black gems, looking at Yang Xiaoxiao.

There is curiosity and ignorance.

Qin Xiaowen stroked the little wolf's head. The latter raised his head, humming and humming his little head in her hand, looking very close. She looked at Yang Xiaoxiao excitedly, but the other party never responded, staring at the foot.

The dead branches and leaves don’t know what they are thinking.

However, Qin Xiaowen was not discouraged, and spoke to Yang Xiaoxiao weakly and patiently without saying a word. When the others saw this scene, they went about their own business without disturbing them.

Lang Hua saw all these things, and he knew that Qin Xiaowen was such a gentle and kind person. In those bloody days, she was Lang Hua's white moonlight, a treasure that he thought about deeply and could not forget, which made her

He cheered up countless times in the darkness, struggled to defeat the weak and escaped from death...

Not long after, when people packed up the scene and prepared to set off again, Yang Xiaoxiao seemed to react to Qin Xiaowen's persistence.

Yang Xiaoxiao's eyes were still dull. She looked down at herself with empty eyes, then at Xiaolang, and said her first words in a long time.

She muttered: "You son of a bitch."
