doomsday lamb

What lies in front of everyone is ruins.

The streets were littered with bricks and rubble, and broken glass mixed with pieces of paper and sawdust were strewn all over the ground. It was beyond recognition and the bustling scene of the past could not be seen.

Perhaps after Lang Hua and the others escaped, a more violent explosion occurred here.

The shock wave further destroyed buildings on the street, and the air flow kicked up dust, covering the road with a thin layer.

Twisted street lamps lying on the ground, fire hydrant pipes with broken valves...these familiar objects in the neighborhood remind everyone that they are not in the wrong place.

The neighborhood where the battlefield is located is close to the center of the explosion and is now covered in devastation.

People staggered in and were at a loss for words.

"Ouch."

It was Yang Qinghua who was trembling on the road and unfortunately tripped over an unknown object.

"What's wrong? Why are you so careless?"

Yang Bensheng hurried over and helped his sister up. Then he stared at the object in Yang Qinghua's hand and narrowed his eyes hard.

Yang Qinghua picked up the culprit who tripped her, but to her surprise, it turned out to be a stained leg bone!

"Ah! What... what is this!"

"Clang."

As soon as she let go, the thing fell to the ground with a muffled sound. People turned their heads and subconsciously looked at their calves.

Yang Bensheng said in a deep voice: "Why panic! Don't be afraid. Dead people... just bones."

Looking around, I saw some motionless corpses lying spread out under the floating soil. They looked ragged and had purple-red corpse spots on their skin, but they were definitely not their dead companions.

As they could see, these corpses with black nails and white pupils were the black corpse army that had attacked them, and the scattered pieces of flesh and broken bones were their former companions!

These beasts that eat human flesh and blood actually... eat so cleanly.

Several young people, including civilian men and women from the Ministry of Armed Forces, could not help but feel itchy throats and the urge to vomit.

Lang Hua squinted his eyes and frowned at the stress reactions of several people.

"Okay, this is it. Ordinary evolvers should seize the time to dissect the crystal core, and those with abilities should spread their guard and be quick!"

Lang Hua turned his head and suddenly said in a stern tone: "Don't leave any omissions when collecting crystal nuclei, and don't hide anything secretly. Violators will face death! Xiaoxiao, Doctor Chen, you are here to supervise them."

While people were raising their heads in a daze, Yang Bensheng said slowly: "Everyone, please hurry up, it's dangerous here. When we get to a safe place, the crystal cores will be distributed again."

"Brothers and sisters, please come and help guard it. The west side will be left to us." Xia Qing volunteered, and of course Lang Hua readily agreed.

Compared to the explosions and chaos the day before yesterday, the streets were much quieter now.

Evolutionaries hold short knives or daggers, walk among garbage, broken bones and dust, and skillfully turn over corpses. They use knives to break open the heads of black corpses, and they can harvest a pink or red energy by simply rummaging through them.

Crystal nucleus.

Calculating the time, it was the beginning of winter a week ago.

After the temperature has dropped in recent days, the spore energy is less likely to escape, and the energy crystal core in the black corpse's body is indeed more condensed.

This trip will probably yield a good harvest.

It is naturally a great joy to be able to harvest "fruit" of better quality. But this also means... when the weather is cold, these black corpses will be more effective in fighting.

When Yang Bensheng thought of this, he couldn't help but look at Lang Hua and said: "It seems... we will have a difficult winter this year."

…

"Hey, Lao Zhao. Why are you digging so fast?" Ten minutes later, a man asked his companion.

"Don't mention it, it's disgusting. I didn't find it even after digging twice. There must be nothing inside that black corpse."

"Ah? You can't say that. Didn't Captain Xiaolang say that there are black corpses in every body? You did this and you didn't miss it?"

"You believe him so much? And he said, who told him? He said yes?" Lao Zhao said disdainfully, "It's just a little kid, when will it be his turn to make the decision?"

"This... people also say that we all have one in our heads."

Hearing this, Old Zhao even sneered: "That's nonsense. He can know everything in my head? That's really amazing. I think he's just using his status as an ability user to fool us and use us as coolies!"

"Yeah, seeing as he swears so confidently, he couldn't have cut open a person's head with his own hands and seen it? Haha."

"that is."

But after a while, Lao Zhao and his companions couldn't laugh anymore. It's not that they had never seen Lang Hua's fighting methods. It's hard to say, he really killed people. Seeing...

Thinking of this, the two looked at each other and suddenly felt a thin layer of cold sweat break out on their backs.

Lao Zhao swallowed hard and said, "Okay, Lao Zhang, do it quickly."

"Okay." But the other party then remembered something, "Old Zhao, you didn't dig up the black corpse just now, why don't you go back and look for it carefully?"

"Forget it, who can tell if there are one or two missing." Old Zhao whispered, "Besides, if you work for others, why do you work so hard?"

"Hey, what you said makes sense."

"Really?"

"But didn't that old Yang next to Captain Xiaolang say that he would distribute the crystal cores to us again?"

"Do you believe this? Send it to us, how? How much? Half or a small half? It can't be

All of them."

"This...I never thought about this."

"Oh, if we earn these three or two more for Lang Hua, we will have one more in our hands? Not necessarily."

"That's what I said..."

"In this world, only what you put in your pocket is truly yours."

I saw Old Zhao shaking his head and talking, while secretly putting a deep red special crystal core into his pocket.

Before, Lang Hua had given them plastic ziplock bags specially used to hold crystal nuclei...

Although Old Zhao didn’t know how to use it, it was obvious that the value of the black corpse crystal core, especially the special crystal core, must be extremely high! Who wouldn’t covet something of high value?

The companion watched this scene happen. After hesitating for a long time, he honestly put the collected crystal nuclei into the ziplock bag...

While the ability users spread out to be on guard, ordinary evolvers gathered in twos and threes to dig out crystal cores. From a distance, they looked like farmers squatting in the fields to collect vegetables.

Unfortunately, compared to fruits and vegetables, the "products" they are collecting are far more non-green and harmful to the public.

After the blade of the knife cut through the flesh of the back of the head, the eye-catching energy crystal core could not be seen immediately. They used the tip of the knife to dig out a mass of red and white connective tissue from the brain of the black corpse, and the crystal nucleus was hidden in it.

Whether they are recessive parasites such as evolved humans and mutated black beasts, or explicit corpse mutants including black corpses and corpse beasts, the energy crystal nuclei in the body all look the same, mostly regular cubic octahedrons.

.The crystal core particles will show different colors of luster under light due to different evolutionary levels.

The surface of the three-dimensional crystal core of the ordinary black corpse is smooth. The surface of the crystal core of the special black corpse has many synapses, like the spikes of the virus envelope magnified 10,000 times, and it looks a bit scary and ugly.

But it is these extra "synaptic" structures and the specific transformation of spore crystal core energy that create a special black corpse that is more powerful than ordinary black corpses.

Supervising other people's work seemed really boring to Yang Xiaoxiao. As early as ten minutes ago, she had wandered around in a hurry. Looking at the direction, it was probably where the four members of the Qin family were.

After two days of displaying the dead bodies, a strong stench emitted, and Chen Xinyan did not want to get close.

But even if she is not close by, the survivors' small movements cannot escape the "microscopic" monitoring of their brain abilities.

Seeing these things, Chen Xinyan did not speak out, not because she was not the leader of this team, but because some more urgent and important noises appeared at the same time.

"Lang Hua! There is movement in the distance, a lot of footsteps!"

As soon as Chen Xinyan finished speaking, Xiao Heizi's call came from the sky:

"Be alert! The second wave of zombies is coming!"
