State of Decay - Chapter 334
[Chapter 329 Angel]
Only then did Lin Wu remember to look at the time. It was only nine o’clock in the evening. He was dying. How to survive this long night. His mind wandered, and his feet slipped when going downhill. Lin Wu, with his 22-sensitivity, grabbed the tree trunk with his left hand and landed on the spot with a backflip. Wow! Incredibly handsome, aren’t you?
Looking left and right, he didn’t see Maya, so he said to the follower beside him: “Nod.”
Xiao Wai nodded immediately, and Lin Wu hugged Xiao Wai happily: “You still know the goods.”
Back near the tent, the stream water rose obviously, and Lin Wu turned to one side Maya, who was looking after the smokehouse, said, “Go to the tent and rest for a while.”
Maya didn’t respond. She walked to Lin Wu and looked at the stream, and asked, “Is it difficult?”
“It’s okay.” Lin Wu said, “It’s just A little irritated.”
Maya said: “Treat it as a practice. If you are not afraid of death, what else are you afraid of?” “It’s better to say
it nicely!”
“It’s better than to say it badly. You have to live with both good and bad words.”
Lin Wu was a little worried Surprised: “I didn’t expect you also understand life.”
“Encouraging ourselves and our comrades are skills we must learn. Since we can’t change the environment, we can only adapt to the environment.” Maya said in turn: “The rain is still falling, and the tent has been flooded. There is no suspense. Now I can only pray that there will be no flash flood.”
“Have you ever seen a flash flood?”
“No, I heard it is very scary.”
“If you can witness a flash flood with your own eyes, is it considered an experience?”
Maya: “I underestimate it. Okay.”
“Huh?” This sentence made me feel happy.
“The flash flood has not yet disappeared, and you have already begun to comfort yourself.” Maya said: “A very positive personality. Even in the worst situation, you can find reasons to comfort yourself. You don’t have to stay here, there is nothing we can do, go in.”
Bonfire Like a pearl in the dark night, it brings hope to people. Looking at the bonfire and listening to the noise outside, Lin Ma did not chat, but waited quietly, waiting for the flash flood to destroy the tent, or for the tent to be successfully put away.
At eleven o’clock in the evening, four hours before the tent was put away, the stream water had reached the entrance of the tent. The lightning outside became more violent, and the rain did not let up at all. A piece of wood flowing down the river hit the tent and was carried away by the current. The durability of the tent flashed and became 99.5%.
After a few minutes, water from the stream flooded into the tent, and the durability of the tent dropped to 98%.
Maya went out to collect all the bacon, returned to the tent and said: “Evacuate first.”
Lin Wu said bitterly and helplessly: “Today it flooded my tent, and tomorrow I will burn the entire mountain.” “
I Let me help you burn it, let’s go.” Maya patted Lin Wu’s shoulder comfortingly, and the two of them left the tent in a hurry. With the help of the ropes placed in advance, they easily climbed the hill to the phantom and the sandstorm. The tent was seven meters below, and lightning flashed from time to time, allowing Lin Wu to see more clearly that his tent was gradually being swallowed up by the water.
At one o’clock in the morning, the situation had not improved. Half of the tents were soaked in water, and the durability of the tents had dropped to 80%. There is also good news. The river is now wide enough for water to pass through, and the water level has stopped rising. As long as there are no mudslides or flash floods, the tent should be able to survive.
Lin Wu and Maya sat on the edge of the mountain, using leaves to block some rain. My whole body was soaked, my body temperature dropped, and endless rain poured down through the leaves. The two of them slowly suffered in such a harsh environment, and finally it was three o’clock in the morning.
Lin Wu stood up and stretched his muscles: “It’s a pity that I couldn’t witness the flash flood with my own eyes. I’ll pack up the tent.” “
Yeah.”
Lin Wu pulled the rope and slid down the hillside and fell into the water. The water reached his chest. This area was In the slow water area, Lin Wu walked towards the tent in the water. Lin Wu felt like crying for no reason when his hand touched the tent with 50% durability. At this time, Maya’s shout came from the headset: “Lin Wu, run, the flash flood is coming.”
Lin Wu looked up subconsciously, and under a flash of lightning, a rolling flash flood carrying trees and rocks rolled over under the impact of the water flow. The thick mass doesn’t look scary, but wherever it goes it forces camps to break out, uproots trees, and pushes boulders to tumble downwards.
Lin Wu read the message, put away the tent ten seconds later, turned around and started swimming. A broken piece of wood hit him on the back. Lin Wu used this force to swing to the side of the mountain, grabbed the rope and climbed up. A tree pushed by the flash flood poked Lin Wu halfway up the mountain. Lin Wu clung to the rope, and the tree crown swept over Lin Wu’s body.
Maya stretched out her hand to hold Lin Wu’s hand and dragged him up the mountain. Lin Wu knelt down and groaned: “Severe fracture, broken ribs, 60% loss of mobility.” “
No problem.” Maya helped Lin Wu stand up: “You get on the horse. , lying on the horse, we have to find an open and safe place to camp.”
There is no open space in the woods, but an open area can be artificially created. Maya led the horse and chose a safe flat area to cut down trees. She also had four stone knives and the two machetes she got from Lin Meng.
Because of the intertwined vines and shrubs, Maya had to work for ten minutes to clean up a small area. Lin Wu couldn’t stand it anymore: “Go away.”
After saying that, he took out the horse and let Phantom gallop for a short distance. The horse went smoothly. Lift off. The men, horses and dogs found bunkers first, and then two rockets fell, instantly exploding into an open area.
At four o’clock in the morning, the tent was unfolded again. At six o’clock in the morning, the rain stopped and the sun rose. At ten o’clock the tent was fully unfolded. There is bad news and good news for Lin Wu. Putting it all together: Lin Wu was seriously injured and needed to be hospitalized for two days. The good news is that Lin Wu needs to stay in the safe zone for two days. The bad news is that Lin Wu cannot leave the safe zone for two days.
The invincibility entry is effective against severe fractures and can heal itself if you wish.
After the diagnosis and treatment, Maya looked at Lin Wu’s uncertain expression and asked, “What?”
“I don’t know if it’s good or bad.” Lin Wu smiled and gloated, “But I know it’s definitely a bad thing for you.”
During the hospitalization, The doctor only needs to check her every day and does not need to be accompanied throughout the whole process, which means that Maya can go out to work. All facilities were 50% damaged and required a lot of building materials to repair. If you want to get building materials, you need to cut down trees, and if you want to cut down trees, you need tools. Although residents can wander around the safe zone, they cannot craft tools, and even their skills are gray. So everything had to be handled by Maya herself.
“It doesn’t matter.”
Maya’s nonchalant attitude made Lin Wu feel bored for a moment, and reminded: “Remember to cook, the patient needs nutrition.” He looked like if you don’t beat me up, I won’t feel comfortable.
“I know, you have a good rest.” Maya went out to work.
Since last night, Maya could already feel that Lin Wu was depressed and irritable, but he was still trying to restrain himself. Even so, Lin Wu still showed his best side without saying a word of complaint.
…
The weather has been quite good these two days since Lin Wu was injured. Also because of the weather, Maya did a lot of work. The first thing is building materials. There are trees nearby. You can cut them down at will. Maya first cut down 50 units of building materials to repair the tent, and then cut down 50 units of building materials to stockpile. Then Maya singled out the porcupine and chased it to someone’s house. The porcupine pierced five holes with a fatal counterattack. In the end, Maya only got one kilogram of meat.
Lin Wu was responsible for eating and sleeping. There is no way, some people are born to work hard, and some people are born to be lucky.
Lin Wu recovered from his injuries at ten o’clock in the morning on the third day. This time was very embarrassing. Let’s pack up the tent. It was almost evening after packing it up. So it was delayed for another day. But the harvest on this day was very rich, especially the prey. With the help of Xiao Wai and Gao Attribute, Lin Wu brought back fifty kilograms of meat three times. It wasn’t that Lin Wu was diligent, but that he was too rich in resources. You can meet wild boar just by walking a few dozen meters.
Maya didn’t meet the wild boar? Of course not, she just couldn’t catch up. To be honest, there are only a handful of animals she can catch up with, and the ones she can catch up with don’t even have a few ounces of meat.
On the third day, the tents were closed at 12 o’clock in the evening. Less than five minutes after the order was given, it started to rain. Lin Wu immediately became furious and pointed at the dark sky and cursed for a minute without breathing. After venting, she felt even better. She went back to the tent to warm herself by the fire: “It’s very stress-relieving. Why don’t you give it a try?” “
I have no pressure
.” “If you don’t admit that there is pressure, it is pressure.”
Maya said seriously: “This is just a small problem, it won’t affect me. It creates pressure. Thank you for your concern.”
At six o’clock in the morning on the fourth day, the tent was completely put away, and it was still raining in the sky. The rain was neither heavy nor light, but it made me feel uncomfortable. It became increasingly difficult to move forward, as all kinds of vegetation and thorns grew as tall as a person. The Mayan stone knife opened the way and chopped all the way. Lin Wu, who was leading the horse behind, thought in his heart that he might have to camp in the rain again tonight.
At four o’clock in the afternoon, they unexpectedly discovered a lumber mill built in the rainforest. The lumberyard has two large buildings: a warehouse and living quarters. Beyond that, there’s a lane going down. Lin Wu flew a drone for reconnaissance and brought back bad news. The end of the road about ten kilometers away was an urban road.
There were a lot of zombies in the lumberyard, but the density was too low, making them no match for Lin Ma. After clearing out the zombies, Lin Ma occupied a room in the living dormitory. In order to avoid being attacked by zombies at night, Maya withdrew from the tent base and built temporary base No. 1.
Although they cannot form an alliance, with Maya here, there is no need for Lin Wu to keep vigil.
After establishing the base, Linma went to the warehouse to search and accidentally found a paper map of Fantasy City posted on the wall. The basic situation is similar to what Maya speculated. You can reach the west of Fantasy City through the entire rain forest. But Route 88 was not drawn on the map, and no other roads outside the city were seen.
Maya’s fingers moved on the map: “We will follow the forest protection road in an arc. According to the rough estimate of the map scale, there are still about 70-75 kilometers. But this forest protection road is not very good.”
Of course the forest protection road is good, but The purpose of forest protection roads is to patrol the forest, not to set optimal roads. If you follow the forest protection road, you won’t be able to walk out for ten days, and you will have to go up the mountains. Maya charts a new course. This route uses forest protection roads as much as possible. Although the distance will be more than 20 kilometers longer, it can greatly speed up the progress.
Lin Wu only had one sentence: “As long as I can leave this damn place as soon as possible.”
Maya said: “If you were allowed to use the crow’s mouth once, what would you say?”
“Why do you make such a request?”
Maya: “I I just want to know if you pissed off Dawn. If you really pissed it off, I have to find a way to eliminate it.” This is her mission.
“You’re thinking too much.” Lin Wu didn’t expect that Maya still had such concerns. Seeing Maya’s firm eyes, Lin Wu didn’t dare to say anything nonsense. What if he said it was raining and it really rained? Let’s talk about a situation that is not very harmful and almost impossible to occur. Lin Wu thought for a long time and said, “We will meet robbers.”
“Be serious.” The probability of meeting robbers here is smaller than the probability of being killed by a meteorite.
“Don’t move, robbery.”
The two turned around and saw a woman wearing a raincoat and a homemade bamboo hat, holding an old-fashioned shotgun and pointing at them ten meters away.
Maya was certain that the fear in Lin Wu’s eyes was not fake at all. No one can escape fear when they learn that Dawn, who has been guarding Blue Star for thousands of years, has emotions.
Maya had a calm personality and asked: “Player?”
“Yes, put the gun on the ground.” The woman’s hand was steady.
Maya kicked Lin Wu and said, “It’s the player.”
“Player?” The broken world view was repaired instantly. Robbery by players and NPCs are two different things. Lin Wu was so angry that he said, “Keep the gun and dance for me, otherwise you will regret living in this world.” His mother’s broken shotgun even dared to rob her.
Maya said: “Girl, we don’t want to kill anyone, because there are too few people. Look around you.”
The woman looked sideways and saw a hound standing on the table one meter away, hunched over and ready to go.
Maya said: “What you are holding is a short-barreled shotgun, with a lethality of only 5 meters. Not to mention there are two of us, even if there is only one of us, you will be the one to die if we take action.”
Lin Wufeng stabbed sideways, and the two ducked After reaching the bunker, the woman never fired. Seeing that Lin Wu was gone, the woman stepped back with her gun in hand: “Don’t move, I really know how to shoot.”
Lin Wu whistled, and the phantom rushed into the warehouse from the living area. He didn’t pay attention to the person in front of him. It was too late to avoid it, and he hit him directly. Go up. When the woman recovered from the fall, she was already controlled by the other party.
Maya kept a gentle attitude: “We are not hostile.”
The woman stood up, backed away from Maya, looked at her for a while and said: “I know you.”
Maya was surprised: “Really?”
“Orient Express.” The woman said: ” Angel, we rode the spider train together.”
“You?”
“My name is Angel.”
Unlike most people. When the server was opened to escape, Angel did not follow the road and follow the road signs to escape to the countryside. Instead, he led a group of people into the rainforest.
In the non-hardcore mode, they explored the game on their own and occupied a mobile three-story house in an experimental field about five kilometers away.
The experimental field is affiliated to Fantasy University and is used for physics experiments. Taking advantage of their numerical advantage, they invaded the university town starting from the back hills. Taking advantage of the single and small number of zombies in the early stage, they not only obtained a large amount of supplies, but also occupied the library near the back mountain. But due to lack of weapons, they were unable to move forward.
The experimental site is often used for dangerous experiments because it is surrounded by a complete fence, which helps them actively survive in non-hardcore mode. After entering the hard-core mode, they further enhanced their ability to survive, and relying on the few points gained from several activities in the waste city, they also obtained a batch of weapons and ammunition.
After introducing himself, the angel walked over to the map and pointed out several dangerous locations to them. Having lived here for more than a year, she already knows this rainforest well.
Knowing that Lin Ma had settled here, Angel left the location of his base on the map and invited them to visit. During the conversation, Angel mentioned many times that Orient Express helped them during the event.
