The whole weird world is waiting for me to go to heaven

Chapter 325: Doomsday Wasteland (I)

Liu Sheng hid behind the shelf, his back against the dusty shelf, holding a bag of canned food in his arms.

She hugged the cloth bag tightly, and covered her mouth tightly with another dark and strong hand to prevent her from making any sound.

Although he meant well, his hands were sweaty and tasted a bit salty.

Liu Sheng tried to push her hand away, but was held down by that person.

That's quite a lot of strength.

There was no way. She was very weak now. She couldn't just chop off the other person's hand with a sword, or use her little tentacles to knock the other person away, right?

There were soft footsteps coming from between the rows of shelves at the back.

The footsteps were light.

It seemed as if the person was not wearing shoes, and there was only the sound of his feet hitting the ground.

He walked back and forth between the shelves, seemingly looking for something.

The sound of footsteps gradually got closer, moving towards their direction.

Liu Sheng turned his head and saw a big, dark, square face with a firm look in her eyes, as if telling Liu Sheng that it was okay, don't be afraid, and believe her.

But the slightly trembling hand revealed the owner's nervousness.

This person's name is Qiao Yu, and they just met three hours ago.

Somehow, perhaps because Liu Sheng looked petite and weak with a confused look on her face, or perhaps because he saw Liu Sheng's head being held in the mouth of a transparent monster as soon as they met, the tall and strong Qiao Yu naturally positioned himself as Liu Sheng's protector.

Lead her everywhere and protect her everywhere.

[So you feel comfortable being protected? ] The world asked.

[Isn't she giving me a chance to perform now? ]

[Also, please know that I am a mortal now! ]

Liu Sheng emphasized, and the world disappeared silently after hearing this.

At this moment, hearing the approaching footsteps, Qiao Yu's heart was in suspense.

But she didn't pray. Over the years, she no longer believed in gods.

Since it has never appeared anyway, you might as well rely on yourself.

With sweat on her hands, Qiao Yu quietly wiped them on the cloth bag to avoid affecting her subsequent performance.

The other hand was on Liu Sheng’s mouth, not wiping it.

Completely ignoring Liu Sheng's sad and resentful look as if he wanted to cry but had no tears.

pat pat pat.

Click, click.

Getting closer.

Qiao Yu held her breath and waited.

Waiting for an opportunity.

"turn out to be……"

"you are here."

A cold and sticky voice sounded.

Right behind them!

Qiao Yu was startled, looked back, and then froze.

Under the tension, Liu Sheng was finally released and turned his head to look.

In the middle of the shelf, among the scattered cans, there was a face!

The face was divided into square pieces of meat by the mesh partitions in the middle of the shelf and passed through.

Even the man's eyes were framed by the grid, squeezed out of the eye sockets and fell out, leaving only a few tendons and blood vessels connecting them. They hung coldly on this side of the partition, looking up at the two people.

Moreover, the position of this person's mouth and nose is strange, being above the eyes.

No, it's not because it's weird.

But it’s because he is upside down!
The clattering sound of his footsteps was the sound of his palms hitting the ground!

So……

His lower body...

Liu Sheng and Qiao Yu slowly raised their heads at the same time.

A pair of feet appeared on the top of the shelf, wearing complete and clean black leather shoes.

Maybe it's because I haven't walked for a long time. At this tense moment, Qiao Yu thought of this inexplicably.

The man looked back and forth between Liu Sheng and Qiao Yu with his eyes wide open, and finally made a decision.

He stared at Liu Sheng, who seemed the weakest. He bent his body, slowly twisted his hands into a ball, and passed through the middle of the grid like twisting a towel. His body followed his hands, squeezing little by little with force, trying to break it down into pieces.

Liu Sheng didn't dodge.

Just as planned.

Qiao Yu's hands were clasped around something as she waited quietly, with cold sweat dripping down her forehead.

When the man's half body was already stuck inside, Qiao Yu finally moved!

He picked up a talisman in his hand and stuck it on the man's hand.

Since the man was stuck in the grid and couldn't move, he could only look at Qiao Yu in anger and fear.

As soon as the yellow talisman touched the man's hand, a puff of green smoke came out, burning the man so much that he screamed and then froze in place.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Qiao Yu took out a machete and chopped at the man's square-shaped head.

It's called cutting, but actually it's just shaving it off layer by layer. Since it's stuck into pieces and protrudes out in the grid, it's quite convenient.

Finally, a small, glowing crystal was found inside, and Qiao Yu picked it out accurately with a knife.

The machete is big and the crystals are tiny, but she has gotten used to it and is quite skilled at it.

After the crystals were picked out, the strange creature seemed to have lost all its vitality, and it remained motionless, dehydrated and stiff, stuck between the shelves forever.

The hanging eyes quickly became dim and cloudy, and finally fell down with a snap.

Rolled to Liu Sheng's feet.

Liu Sheng looked at the eyeballs and was stunned for a moment.

"Stop being dazed, let's go." Qiao Yu said, throwing the crystal to Liu Sheng and walked out first.

Liu Sheng put the crystals into a small cloth bag, which already contained more than a dozen blood-stained crystals.

Then she followed obediently.

……

Following Qiao Yu walking on the deserted streets, Liu Sheng had already adapted to the abandoned urban scene around him and no longer felt the surprise and novelty he had at the beginning.

Although she didn't know why she could pass through the Holy Land from the Sitianjian ruins in Chang'an to such a place with an architectural style similar to that of the Federal Empire.

But she has gradually adapted to this kind of jumpy scene switching.

Since there is no way to run away, I can only accept it.

Moreover, although this place is similar to the Federal Empire, among the several Federal Empires she has seen, the level of technology here is more similar to the world where Yi Yu is located, and is relatively backward.

However, that was only in the past.

There is no technology to speak of now, only countless technological corpses left.

Looking around, the once prosperous city has now become dilapidated. Most of the glass windows of the high-rise buildings have been shattered, and broken steel bars and dilapidated walls are exposed, like the skeleton of a giant beast.

Abandoned vehicles were parked in a mess on both sides of the road, some of which had been burned, leaving only twisted iron frames and charred tires.

The streets were covered with a thick layer of dust and gravel, and occasionally some shabby and faded billboards could be seen hanging precariously in mid-air.

The store doors on both sides are filled with abandoned items, tattered clothes, discarded electronic equipment and all kinds of household garbage mixed together, exuding a smell of decay.

The wind blew, bringing up gusts of dust and scraps of paper, making a rustling sound.

A torn and yellowed piece of paper swirled in the wind and landed at Liu Sheng's feet.

Liu Sheng looked down and saw a fragment of a newspaper. The biggest headline on it read "Famous scientist Marilena discovered traces of high-dimensional civilization for the first time..."

The second half of the title disappeared at the edge of the paper.

The following is "Many heinous crimes have occurred, and the security of the Federal Empire is worrying."

Look at the time again - July 6598, 7 in the Star Calendar.

According to Qiao Yu, she was still young at the time and only remembered that a catastrophe had occurred in this world. Weird creatures were everywhere, many people died, and nine out of ten cities were empty, and the world was forever frozen in the year 6598.

She was lucky and had someone to protect her, so she could hide and survive during the doomsday.

However, slowly, those who protected her died one by one.

In the end, she was left alone.

Until today, when I met Liu Sheng.

This was the first time she had seen other humans in nearly ten years.
