Chapter 234 Three Text Messages
This demon looks ordinary, just like the human skeleton specimens commonly seen in medical schools. If it stood there motionless, ordinary people would definitely think it was a skeleton specimen.
The second demon that came out of the shadows looked like a spider. It looked like an enlarged version of a wolf spider, but its head looked more like a human than a spider.
It has a pair of nostrils on its human face, no ears, and is densely covered with human eyes. Its tentacles are like those of a spider, but they end in human hands.
The third demon that crawled out of the shadow looked like a combination of a human and a dog. It was covered in fur, with a body similar to that of a human and a head like that of a dog.
Ying Shuran had met these three demons once, and last time, it was these three demons that took turns to make a contract with her.
"Haha, sorry to make you laugh. They three look stupid, right?" The Rebellious Lady scratched her head and laughed. Her expression as if these three demons were her pets.
Ying Shuran looked at the rebel, then at the three demons. She could feel that these three demons were very, very weak, even weaker than those detained by the Investigation Bureau, because the fear she felt was very slight.
She didn't understand why these three demons would act together with the Rebellious Lord. She had heard that sometimes demons would lean over the contractor, but she had never heard of multiple demons leaning over the same contractor at the same time.
But it doesn't matter anymore, it's none of her business, she just needs to execute the unfinished contract.
Of course, it doesn’t really matter whether it’s completed or not. If a contract is violated, the other party can forcibly distort the spirit of the defaulter…so the contract must be executed.
"Everyone who was related to Longyun Society is now dead. You should give everything you have."
“You should give your all.”
"Give it all! Woo woof!"
Ying Shuran looked at the three strange-looking demons in front of her, and looked at the Rebellious King with some hesitation.
The rebel immediately understood, smiled gently, and said comfortingly: "Don't worry! Your colleague will definitely kill you successfully. I promise that even if you don't die, you will only exist for 12 hours at most! This is also the content of the contract, isn't it?"
Ying Shuran frowned slightly, stretched out her only remaining arm, grasped her other empty sleeve, and slowly said: "I give everything I have."
…
Investigation Bureau 7.
Su Ming had received the text message from Xia Xiaoyu early in the morning, but he couldn't leave now.
Things always happen so suddenly. There have been incidents of dead people attacking the living in various areas of Dongyang Island. Now all the investigation bureaus are in chaos.
The same is true for the Investigation Bureau 7. There are corpses everywhere attacking living people. The combat effectiveness of those corpses is not strong. It is a piece of cake for those with special abilities, but a nightmare for ordinary people.
Those corpses are not like the slow-moving zombies that will die if shot in the head. Many of them move quickly and have direct intentions, just like the synthetic beasts in Black Gate, which can still move with the rest of their bodies even if shot in the head and their hands are severed.
Only by completely crushing the bodies of these corpses can they be completely deprived of their ability to move.
The only thing to be thankful for is that although these new zombies attack people, they do not infect people, and people bitten by zombies will not be transformed.
Su Ming stood on the street, and the whole street was filled with the sound of the alarm and the announcement of the Investigation Bureau - "Attention everyone! Attention everyone! You will not be transformed into a zombie after being attacked by a corpse! Please stop attacking your companions who have been bitten! Please stop attacking your companions who have been bitten!"
“I repeat again! You will not turn into a zombie after being attacked by a corpse. Please stop attacking your companions who have been bitten!”
Yes, this is one of the biggest problems encountered in the current rescue. Perhaps because of the usual impression of zombie movies , the investigators found similar situations in several families they rescued, such as fathers who were bitten by zombies while protecting their wives and children, and wives who killed their husbands with great pain to protect their children.
"Huh - what a mess." Su Ming let out a long sigh.
He estimated that after the riot, a large number of people in the city would go to see a psychiatrist.
In addition, there was no doubt that the riot was premeditated, and he felt that there was a hand behind the scenes manipulating the entire incident.
But he didn't know whether the current turmoil was related to Ying Shuran.
While thinking, Su Ming walked into a shopping mall.
Places like shopping malls and hotels are the ones that are most severely attacked by zombies, because these places have large spaces, making it convenient for zombies to run around, and people are more likely to fall into chaos.
Su Ming's mission is to clear all the zombies in this area.
This was not a difficult task for Su Ming, but it was definitely troublesome.
Those zombies were moving around very flexibly, and Su Ming’s ability didn’t have such a long range, so he had to chase them to “kill” them, and he had to break all of the corpses’ limbs before he could control them.
He originally wanted to use fire, but after burning the first corpse, he decided not to use fire anymore. Firstly, it would waste blood, and secondly, a burning human-shaped object running wildly in a crowded place would cause even greater harm.
The first corpse he burned ran away for dozens of meters and almost hugged a lady and bit her.
A zombie pounced towards Su Ming. He casually chopped off its head with a knife, and then chopped off its hand and foot with two more slashes, completing the initial processing.
This kind of zombie with only one hand and one foot is no longer a threat to ordinary people and can be dealt with last.
Su Ming saw a woman who was so frightened that she couldn't move, so he stepped forward and helped her up.
"Thank...thank you." The woman said with tears of gratitude, holding Su Ming's arm tightly with both hands, as if she was grabbing the only life-saving straw.
"Just go along here to the door and then get on the Investigation Bureau's car." Su Ming said.
"I...am I alone? You...you won't go with me?" The woman cried even harder, her eyes seemed to be spewing water.
"It's okay. The door has been sealed and no more zombies will come in. All the zombies on the road have been dealt with. They are all from the Investigation Bureau. Just go through without worry." Su Ming comforted patiently.
The woman opened her mouth, looked at the moving corpse beside her, and cried loudly, completely unaware of what Su Ming had just said.
The other party's crying made Su Ming's head buzz. For the first time, he felt that the commissioner of the Investigation Bureau was not only facing the danger brought by the weirdness, but also the mental pollution brought by the stupid teammates, which was also a key factor affecting the survival rate.
Okay, he admitted that it was not nice to call innocent civilians pig teammates, but now he was really troubled by this woman, and he couldn't escort her out, that would be too inefficient.
"Look, look! That's my colleague! Run over there quickly, those corpses still crawling on the ground can't see you!" Su Ming pointed at his colleague behind him, broke free from the woman's pull, and chased after the running zombies.
Sure enough, after losing Su Ming's protection, the woman behind him rushed to the entrance of the shopping mall at the speed of a 100-meter sprint.
That's right, why didn't you run away earlier? Instead of standing there like a piece of wood waiting to die, Su Ming thought as he looked at the woman's back.
The cell phone in his pocket vibrated slightly. Su Ming cut the approaching zombie in two from the left chest to the right waist with one knife. He stepped on the upper body of the corpse and took out the cell phone calmly.
The vibration just now was a text message from Xia Xiaoyu - [The one with Ying Shuran is a monster who can see me. Shotguns are ineffective. He should be A-level! I have successfully escaped now, so don't worry. ]
Ying Shuran was actually with a weirdo, and an A-level weirdo at that.
What is her relationship with Weird? Are they accomplices?
Xia Xiaoyu didn't explain clearly in the text message, maybe she was rushing back and didn't have any extra time.
Su Ming had just finished reading this text message when another new one came in.
[Xia Xiaoyu will be attacked by demons on Songyang Road]
Su Ming frowned. The person who could send him such a text message could only be someone who could see Xia Xiaoyu like him. Otherwise, it would be weird.
What was her purpose in sending me this message? Did she want me to save Xia Xiaoyu?
The authenticity of this text message is also debatable. Su Ming's super intuition can work for truth and lies, but it cannot work for this kind of indirectly expressed information. Because the information on paper or the Internet, although written according to the writer's will, is actually equivalent to a dead object at the moment it is written.
In order to use super intuition to recognize the information in this kind of text carrier, one condition must be met - the content is sufficient and the writer has put various purposes into the content.
Only when this condition is met can Su Ming judge the author's true thoughts by experiencing the emotional expression in the content.
The last example is biography. Through biography, Su Ming can perceive the author’s true purpose when writing this text.
If the objective statement just now was longer, Su Ming might be able to read the other party's purpose, but it was too short. Su Ming could not tell the truth from the falsehood based on just this one sentence.
This is the weakness of super intuition.
Therefore, Su Ming had no way of knowing whether Xia Xiaoyu had been attacked or whether she had been attacked on Songyang Road.
But based on this piece of information alone, Su Ming could also infer some intelligence.
It is almost certain that the person who sent the message is an enemy, as the message is full of inducement. Although he doesn't know what the other party wants to do by luring him to Songyang Road, it should not be a good thing.
Su Ming pulled up the address book and called Xia Xiaoyu.
After a minute of busy signal, the call was not connected.
It was not logical that the call was unreachable even though Xia Xiaoyu had sent him a text message very shortly afterwards.
It's possible that she really encountered some difficult situation and didn't have time to make a phone call.
“Buzz——”
Just as Su Ming was about to think carefully, another text message came in, this one with an attachment: [A demon has appeared, temporarily codenamed Beast Demon. All specialists with fear resistance above level B are to proceed to the target location].
The fear resistance of Dongyang Island is often converted into depth. The fear resistance of diving to a depth of 200 meters in the Fear Stairs is converted into the Alliance rating of A.
There is no doubt that Su Ming has reached this standard.
The address in the attachment is exactly the Investigation Bureau 7, which is only four blocks away from Su Ming!
