The roar was soon exhausted.
Dudian felt empty as he lay on the ground. He looked up at the dark clouds that were slowly moving in the sky. He heard the sounds of biting and gnawing coming from his left arm.
The corner of his mouth slightly twitched. He slowly raised his right hand and gently hugged her back.
If… I can always hug you like this, how good would that be?
Gulp!
Aisha’s throat let out a low roar like a ferocious beast. The sound of biting was accompanied by the sound of hungry swallowing.
Dean’s eyes slowly moved down to her body. There was a trace of gentleness in his empty and numb eyes. His palm gently stroked her silky hair, it was as if he was stroking a kitten in his arms.
Aisha looked up as if she was frightened when he touched her head. Her beautiful face was full of malice as she stared at him. There was half a piece of ice-crystallized flesh in her mouth.
Dean looked at her gently. His eyes were extremely gentle as if he was saying, “Don’t be afraid, I’m always here…”
Aisha suddenly opened her mouth and bit his neck with her sharp teeth.
Whoosh!
Dean touched her hair with his right hand. He suddenly turned and held her neck. There was a bit of pain and sorrow in his eyes. He said in a low voice, “I’m sorry…”
Roar!
Aisha ignored him and rushed over with a ferocious roar.
Dudian’s arm was pressed against her neck. He felt that although his strength was inferior to hers, but it seemed to be able to suppress her. Logically speaking, with her physique, it should be easy for her to kill him. But from the strength that she burst out.., it seemed that she didn’t have the previous extraordinary combat strength.
In the stalemate between the two, a few minutes passed. Suddenly, Aisha’s pure black pupils that had been desperately biting suddenly contracted. It was as if the middle of her pupils was sucked into a black hole, pulling the black curtain on the eyeball into it, the edge of her eyes revealed a trace of Snow White.
Dean was slightly startled.
Roar!
Aisha suddenly raised her head and roared. Her fingernails expanded and became sharper. At the same time, a sharp horn slowly protruded from her forehead. It was the posture of Aisha when she had awakened for the fourth time.
When the roar fell, her body suddenly slanted to the side and twitched like a spasm. The bones in her arms, chest and other parts of her body creaked.
Dudian sat up from the ground. He was a bit stunned when he saw this strange scene. At the same time, a glimmer of hope that he didn’t dare to ask for surged from the bottom of his heart. Could it be that… her consciousness hadn’t completely disappeared and she was fighting with the Zombie King virus in her body?
Although he knew that the possibility was very small, but he couldn’t help but feel nervous. At the same time, he was a bit afraid. He was afraid that his hope would be destroyed again.
Crack! Crack!
At this time, the sound of bones hitting each other suddenly came from Aisha’s back. The horn protruding from her forehead extended out from her body as if it wanted to be completely extracted from her body.
“Ah Ah Ah Ah…”Aisha roared to the sky. Her beautiful and ferocious face was full of pain. Her hands were tightly holding her head.
Dean couldn’t help but clench his fists when he saw this scene. It was as if all the pain she had suffered was happening to him.
Haisha hugged her head and desperately smashed her head onto the ground. Her horns pierced the ground and made holes. Suddenly, she roared and pounced on Dean who was in front of her.
Dudian’s face slightly changed. He was ready to retreat, but he quickly stopped.
He saw that Haisha stopped mid-way. Her arms went soft and her body fell down.
Dudian was slightly startled. He immediately went forward to turn her over, but she had already fainted.
“What’s going on?”Dudian was at a loss, but he quickly thought that no matter what, he should find a safe place while she was unconscious. If she woke up and regained consciousness, that would be the best thing, but if… she woke up and was still in her current state then he had to find a way to subdue her!
“As long as there is a glimmer of hope, I will not give up on you!”Dudian picked her up and firmly said: “If you can hear me then you must persevere. You will not lose to the corpse poison!”
He took a deep breath and looked around. There was nothing but rubble in his sight.
Suddenly, the ruins that he had explored previously flashed in his mind. His eyes lit up. It was an excellent safe place in the ruins. However, he had spent a lot of effort to rush out of the ruins. If he wanted to return to the ruins, there were countless wandering zombies in the middle. It was extremely dangerous.
Soon, he threw the idea of “Danger”out of his mind and quickly turned around with Aisha in his arms.
After running for a while, Dudian saw a group of wandering undeads from a distance. He looked at them and quickly took out the powder from Aisha’s backpack. He poured half of the bottle onto himself, then he picked up a stone from the ground and threw it to another place.
The stone fell to the ground.
Hearing the sound, the group of undeads immediately wandered away.
Dudian saw the situation and immediately picked up Aisha and ran away. The only thing that could be used at the moment seemed to be the weakness of the undeads that didn’t have intelligence.
After he got close to the group of undeads that were led away by the sound of the stone, a few undeads heard Dudian’s footsteps and slightly turned around. Their ulcerated facial features were twisted as they tilted their heads and looked at Dudian, they shook their bodies as they walked towards him.
Dudian’s face changed but he soon noticed that the undeads were not rushing towards him. He was relieved. It seemed that the effect of the powder was very good, the undeads didn’t recognize him at all.
However, the powder was not absolute. It might not be effective against some high-level undeads. Especially for the king of undeads.
Whoosh!
Dudian sprinted in the wilderness. Although he should take a long way to be safe, but he was more worried about Aisha when she woke up, he might not be able to escape from her hands.
However, he was a bit puzzled as he was able to resist her bite. However, he didn’t know much about the structure of undeads and the process of the transformation. He couldn’t think of any reason and could only leave it for future investigation.
In the blink of an eye, more than an hour had passed. Dudian met hundreds of undeads on the way back but they were small in number. The previous tide of undeads had completely relaxed after losing the rule of the king of undeads.
There were some high-level undeads among the hundreds of undeads but fortunately there were no giant God corpses.
From the previous battle it seemed that there were only two giant God corpses in the Horde. From the reaction of the dead Renault it seemed that a king of undeads could get the protection of two giant God corpses, it seemed that he was an incredible existence.
“DAMN!”
Dudian looked at the giant shadow that was wandering behind the rubble. His face turned ugly. It was a giant undeads. Its physique was similar to that of a high-level limiter. However, it didn’t care about its life, even the pioneers would find it difficult to deal with it.
The distance was too close. It was too late to take a detour.
Dudian clenched his fists. There was madness in his eyes. He was ready to fight to the death!
As the distance was getting closer, Dudian was ready to speed up and take the lead. Suddenly his pace slowed down. He looked at the giant undeads in disbelief, he saw that it was facing him… it was squatting down! Both of its hands were tightly hugging its body. It was trembling as if it was afraid.
Afraid?
Would undeads who didn’t feel pain be afraid?
Dudian was stunned. He suddenly thought of the head of the Black Wing Corpse King tied on his belt. was the giant undeads afraid because of its smell?
He looked at the giant undeads. It shouldn’t Be a disguise. Except for the Black Wing Corpse King and the giant undeads who were hiding underground to ambush Eureka.., it seemed that he hadn’t seen any intelligent response from the other undeads.
Whoosh!
He didn’t stop and quickly rushed past it.
Dudian found that the zombie’s trembling had stopped when he was hundreds of meters away from it. It slowly stood up and continued to shake its body as it wandered to another place.
Dudian was relieved when he saw this. He turned to look at the head of the black-winged zombie king. He didn’t expect that the hatred at that time would be so helpful at this moment.
He was more confident as he held Aisha and sprinted forward at full speed.
After encountering the giant God’s corpse, he encountered some strange undeads. But without exception, these high-level undeads would stop wandering and crouch down when they were hundreds of meters away from him, or they would crouch down.
Ordinary undeads and low-level undeads didn’t behave like this. But when he passed by them, they would immediately turn around and wander in another direction as if they wanted to get away from them, dudian felt that this reaction should be from the effect of the powder.
He didn’t know how much time had passed. When Dudian felt that his legs were a bit sore and numb, he finally came to the ruins again.
There were dozens of undeads wandering here at different stages. They were wandering along the entrance passage under the rubble.
Dudian picked up two stones and knocked them against each other. The sound soon attracted the undeads out of the passage. One of the giant undeads hadn’t climbed out of the passage yet. It was curled up on the ground and trembling, its body rolled down the slope passage.
Dudian waited for the undeads to come out. He picked up Aisha’s body and quickly went down the slope. Soon he came to the passage where he fought with Eureka and others, there were still broken corpses of undeads on the ground.
Dudian quickly came to the entrance of the ruins. He saw that the huge gate of the ruins was still open. There were dozens of undeads wandering in the dark ruins. He frowned and picked up a stone from the ground and threw it outside.
Soon, the undeads in the ruins heard the movement. They shook their bodies and slowly walked towards the stone. However they stopped halfway. Dudian had to throw the stone again. He found that the auditory memory of these undeads was very short. The amazing thing was that they were not intelligent but were attracted to the source of the sound, however, they were not attracted to each other’s footsteps.
This made Dudian want to study them, but not now.
After drawing out the undeads, he picked up Aisha and quickly went to the ruins. He turned around and looked at the door of the ruins, but he didn’t see the valve that closed the ruins. Could it be that the ruins was closed from the outside?
This idea was rejected by him. There was no valve or dark valve that was closed from the outside. Even if there was a dark valve, it was unlikely to be closed from the outside.
He came to the circular hall in the ruins. He gently put Aisha on the ground and looked at her sleeping face. He turned his head and looked around. He quickly came to the wall and gently knocked on it to find the dark valve.
When he was halfway through the search, Dean suddenly thought of the small door in the pile of bones. He quickly went to the pile of bones and pushed the high pile of bones away. Suddenly, there was a loud crash, the decayed bones fell down in an instant. Countless dust and bone powder were raised.
Dudian covered his nose and walked into the small door. It was a door made of pure metal. It was two meters tall. It was the standard height of most doors in the old era, there was a horizontal window which looked like tempered glass. At the moment it was covered with dust.
Dudian wiped off the dust. He looked through the transparent glass and saw the scene inside. It wasn’t a place where treasures were stored as he had thought. It was a small room which looked like an aircraft control panel. There were many instruments and devices, there were several corpses and some scattered papers and books on the ground.
Dudian was a bit disappointed. However he had expected that this was the main control panel of the shelter.
He looked around. There was no handle on the door. There was a bell-like device on the metal wall. He looked at it and gently pressed it… There was no response.
He tried to press it a few times but there was no response. He cursed in his heart and punched the door.
Bang! The door was suddenly opened.
Dudian was stunned. The next moment, he found that the door was not closed. There was a palm bone in the gap of the door.
He immediately pushed the door and entered. He saw that the console was very messy. There were four corpses on the ground. Oh No, there should be five corpses. He also saw some scattered bones, arm bones and human hip bones.
In addition to the scattered bones, there were four corpses. Two of them were hugging each other. One was a man and one was a woman. The woman’s hair was Snow White. There was a ruby necklace hanging on her neck. It was very exquisite but was covered in dust.
One of the other two corpses was on the control panel while the other one was lying by the door.
Dudian looked at the corpses. There were crumpled pieces of papyrus on the abdomen of the corpses. He frowned as he vaguely guessed what had happened here.
If the survivors outside had starved to death, then the ones inside should be the same. The only bookshelf in the room was pushed to the ground. The books were torn up and scattered everywhere. They became food for the people before they died, however, despite living on straw paper, they couldn’t wait for rescue and starved to death in the end.
No wonder there were so many bones gathered outside the door. It should be because the people outside wanted to get what was inside, be it food or hope for life.
Dudian was silent for a moment. He pushed the bones away from the console. The bones were all broken and piled on the ground.
He picked up a piece of paper and looked at it. He found that it was the western bible of the old era. He turned around and went to the side of the fallen bookshelf. He wiped off the dust and picked up a few books, these books were classic books from different fields. They were the essence and symbol of human civilization.
“I originally planned to let these people live and pass down the civilization…”Dudian’s eyes flashed. His father had such expectations for him.
However, the great thing of passing down the entire human civilization was ultimately unable to overcome the most primitive instinct, hunger.
There were dozens of books torn on the ground. They were scattered all over the place and became the only rations for the five people. The person whose bones were scattered most likely became the rations for the other four people.
Dudian looked at the books and put them down. He turned around and walked to the console. He looked at the numerous mechanisms and frowned slightly.
At this time, a soft voice sounded from behind him.
Dudian suddenly looked back. The cold vigilance in his eyes suddenly melted. He didn’t know when Aisha quietly stood up and walked towards him step by step. Her body swayed as if she was a baby who had just learned to walk.
Dudian was relieved when he saw her wake up. He was about to open his mouth when he suddenly noticed that her eyes were pitch-black and her hands were in the shape of claws. This was a posture that could launch an attack at any time.
His heart sank.
Roar!
Aisha suddenly roared when she saw Dean notice her. Her beautiful face was full of malevolence as she opened her mouth and pounced on him.
The last trace of hope and fantasy in Dean’s heart was destroyed when he saw her like this. He kicked the half-open door and the bolt of the metal door slid shut.
Bang!
Aisha hit the door and her head slightly tilted back. Then she roared and tried to hit the door again.
