Chapter 2 The System Appears

Chapter 2 The System Appears

After Roger described the situation outside, there was first a deathly silence in the arena, and then a hubbub ensued.

But because of Roger's presence, this hubbub was also somewhat suppressed, and finally turned into whispers among the crowd.

As a time-traveler who didn't know anything, Lin Xinghai, of course, pricked up his ears and eavesdropped on these people's conversations in order to obtain more information.

Soon he learned that originally, like the No. 83 shelter with a number like this, they were all small shelters and generally did not have much combat power.

And like the Star Shield Shelter they were going to, which had a name, it was a medium-sized shelter.

Medium-sized shelters were not only larger, with more complete internal facilities, but even had an army stationed there.

It was precisely because of this that they could monitor the outside world and understand so many things.

But Lin Xinghai only eavesdropped on this basic information.

As for more, they were all just some messy speculations.

Using the information he had in his hands, he began to think about a way out.

Just as Roger said, they were really a group of "white pigs" now, without any combat power and could only be at the mercy of others. It was estimated that even when they went to the Star Shield Shelter, it wouldn't be much better.

He was considering whether to accept Roger's invitation and join the other party's mercenary group.

Although Lin Xinghai didn't know clearly what a mercenary group was like, it was obvious that mercenaries could hold guns. If he accepted the other party's invitation...

Wait, when they first met, what did the other party say, inviting him to be cannon fodder?

But he believed that even if he went to the other party's mercenary group, he wouldn't really be used as cannon fodder.

Because it was his own B-level genetic assessment that attracted the other party's invitation.

But now he still knew too little information. How much cultivation value did the B-level genetic assessment have?

Was the other party's cultivation method dangerous? He knew nothing about these things.

"Still have to wait and find an opportunity to pry some information from the other party." Lin Xinghai silently made a decision in his heart.

At this moment, the transport vehicle they were riding in seemed to have started, and along with the engine sound came the slight tremor of the vehicle body.

At the same time, the thick alloy vehicle walls all around also opened up one "small window" each. These small windows were narrow and long, and should be individual firing ports.

The firing ports were narrow, but it was enough for these people in the vehicle to see the situation outside clearly.

The number of these transport vehicles parked outside was at least over 100.

In addition, there were more than ten special vehicles.

Lin Xinghai squinted and sized them up. According to his speculation, those were likely armored vehicles, and the ones fully armed inside should be real soldiers.

Looking further out, from this angle, he could see the entire No. 83 Shelter, which was a building similar to a bird's nest.

Wait, there seemed to be something not right... Why was this shelter so empty?

Then he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. There were large-scale equipment cutting the alloy outer wall of the shelter in the distance, and the exposed rock wall could already be seen there.

No wonder the shelter was so empty. That was because all the facilities had been dismantled, and now even the walls and floors were not spared.

"In the end times, any resource is precious." Roger came to his side at some point and suddenly said a sentence.

Lin Xinghai was somewhat silent. The outside world seemed even more cruel than he imagined.

...

But there was no time for him to sigh, because the vehicle starting meant it was time to leave. One transport vehicle after another lined up and drove out of the shelter.

After a while, it was their turn for the transport vehicle they were riding in to pass. As the vehicle moved and the observation angle changed, Lin Xinghai finally knew how these people got into this underground shelter.

The other party actually used large-scale engineering equipment to forcibly open up a direct path to the underground.

Um! It was a path and couldn't be called a tunnel, because it was really too big.

How to describe it?

Two-way six-lane!

It was just so spacious. Lin Xinghai could only sigh at the rapid development of technology.

In just two or three minutes, the vehicle reached the surface.

...

The environment on the surface could only be described in two words, desolate!

Looking around, they were all dilapidated and collapsed buildings. There was not a hint of green and no living things could be seen. Even the sky was gray.

The cold wind poured into the compartment, and Lin Xinghai felt a little cold. Was this the post-disaster Earth?

The performance of the others in the vehicle was even more unbearable. Many people directly cried, and the hope in their eyes directly turned into despair.

After the convoy reached the ground, it formed one defense formation after another and waited in place for half an hour.

It wasn't until those huge engineering equipment pulled up carts of alloy steel that the final finishing work was considered complete.

The convoy officially set off towards the Star Shield Shelter.

...

Roar! Roar!

After only driving for more than ten minutes, everyone vaguely heard a kind of howling like that of a wild beast, but this sound was even more terrifying than that emitted by a wild beast.

"Could it be... this is the howling of zombies?" Lin Xinghai immediately had a guess in his heart.

The howling sound got closer and closer to the convoy, and the sound got louder and louder, seemingly connecting into one piece. If it was really zombies, then the number would definitely not be small, definitely more than a hundred.

When these voices got close to a certain distance, they were immediately covered by a series of machine gun sounds. The gunshots lasted for about half a minute. When the gunshots stopped, the howling also disappeared.

"Solved?" someone asked in a low voice.

"Well! Solved." Roger nodded, with a strange smile on the corner of his mouth, "White pigs, it's time to give you the first lesson."

"What first lesson?" Seeing Roger's strange smile, many people felt that something was not right.

But Roger didn't answer this. The transport vehicle continued to move forward and soon reached the place where they had just exchanged fire.

Before they could see the situation outside clearly, the vehicle stopped and the rear door opened.

Not only them, but also the subsequent troop transport vehicles were all like this.

Then one by one, the shelter members were brought down.

"Next, I will take you there. Everyone has to touch those zombies. This is the content of the first lesson." Roger pointed to a pile of corpses not far away and said.

Zombies and humans actually don't have much difference in appearance, just that the skin is a little pale, and the teeth and nails are exceptionally long.

So when everyone looked in the direction Roger pointed, seeing those bloody corpses one after another, many people vomited on the spot.

Especially the women in the field vomited horribly, and after vomiting, they backed away with pale faces, not even wanting to take a second look in that direction.

"Everyone line up and go touch the zombies, otherwise. Hey! Then stay here and keep company with these corpses!" Roger's voice rang out again. At this moment, many people felt that this was the devil's whisper.

Lin Xinghai's face wasn't good-looking either, but he knew that they were at the mercy of others. So he could only obediently line up and follow the team to the nearest corpse.

This corpse was still relatively intact, with only a small hole in the forehead. It should have been directly pierced through the head by a single gunshot.

But what made him feel strange was that there was also a wound on the back of the zombie's head.

He also found that not only the zombie in front of him, but also on the backs of the zombies around, there was such a wound.

"Finishing the blow? But why cutting the back of the head?"

Out of curiosity and also to complete the task of "the first lesson", Lin Xinghai reached out and touched that wound.

"Ding! Detected the power of blood qi, whether to absorb it?"
