Chapter 15 The Masked Man
The sound of gunfire meant that there were still people in the city. This was normal. After all, there were a total of one million people in the Steel City. Even if there were only tens of thousands left, it would be impossible to evacuate them all in one day. There would definitely be some people hiding in places where the zombies couldn't find them, lingering on and having a hard time.
At this time, Li Feng had already washed his whole body and didn't want to be covered in blood again, so he simply found a thick bed sheet and found a lone zombie in the apartment building. After killing the zombie, he used the zombie's blood and brain matter to smear the entire bed sheet, making a blood cloak. He wrapped it around his body, which immediately covered his human scent. Unless the zombies were within one or two meters of him, they would not be able to smell the human scent.
Wrapped in the blood cape, he headed towards the direction of the gunshots. After half a day, Li Feng still couldn't find any clues, but he was hungry again. As a last resort, he had to go into an apartment building, killed several zombies along the way, and found a house to go in.
Then, he searched for food again, throwing all kinds of rice, flour, vegetables and meat into the pot and starting to stew. Soon, this pot of messy stew had already exuded an enticing aroma.
Under normal circumstances, no one would like to eat this pot of hodgepodge, which would be like a pot of porridge or swill, and could only be used to feed pigs. But for Richemont now, this pot of food is the most wonderful delicacy in the world.
He didn't mind the heat, and in a short while, he had swallowed the entire pot of delicious rice and food porridge without leaving any residue. Finally, he poured a bottle of mineral water to clean the pot, heated up the water and drank it. Then he wiped his mouth with satisfaction and sat down on the ground.
Finally I am 80% full...
At first, Li Feng had some doubts in his heart, thinking that he might burst his stomach if he ate so much. But when he swallowed more than a dozen packs of biscuits in one breath without feeling anything, he knew that his digestive system was now fully capable of withstanding this level of food.
There was still a lot of food, but he didn't want to eat any more. Although there were no particularly powerful evolvers in the Steel City, it looked safe on the surface, but who knew if there would be anything hidden.
Strength, how much he needs strength! Now, in terms of physical strength, he is at most stronger than a drummer or a skinner. The biggest advantage is that he is immune to the T virus. If he wants to survive in this cruel apocalypse, these are far from enough! Bronze's sleep has made him more awake. Relying entirely on external forces is a dead end. Even if Bronze wakes up again and even gives him stronger protection, he still has to keep fighting to strengthen his physical strength!
Just as he was lost in thought, a voice suddenly came from the street outside: "Tubby Liu, are you fucking crazy? How could there be people in a place like this? We saw a few zombies wandering around in the room a few days ago."
Someone is coming! Lifeng jumped up, picked up a thick steel pipe, tiptoed to the window and looked out.
He was on the third floor. Looking down, he saw two people who were wrapped tightly . Their coats were covered with purple-black blood. They were holding hammers and machetes in their hands. The one behind was holding a pistol in his hand and walking towards the building.
The two men were dressed fully armed, wearing thick cotton coats, helmets on their heads, and thick gloves on their hands, making it impossible to see what they looked like.
The person at the back was fatter and looked much stronger than the person at the front. He was the one who spoke just now.
The bald Liu cursed back, "Sun Lao Er, did a dog eat your nose? Can't you smell that fragrance? I can smell it from a mile away. There must be someone alive in here!"
As he spoke, Liu Laotou carefully pushed open the door and walked upstairs, saying as he walked: "If we find the person inside, send him to our camp. Tsk tsk, Scar Brother will at least give us a woman to play with. What's more, if there is a woman in here... tsk tsk."
"I think you are going crazy. If there are too many zombies in here, don't blame me for running away." Although Sun Laoer, who was behind, was cursing, he was obviously persuaded by Liu Laotou. He raised the machete in his hand and followed Liu Laotou closely.
Li Feng immediately understood something from the two men's words. It was obvious that the two men belonged to a certain gang. From the words of those "playing with women", it could be heard that they were definitely not good men and women. It seemed that some of the survivors had already mastered the tricks to survive in this apocalypse...
Judging from their attire and mentality, they have obviously adapted to zombies, and at least they are not afraid of a single zombie. After all, the biggest weapon of zombies is infection. As long as they hide themselves well and are not bitten by zombies, it is still possible to kill a zombie. When these two people were walking on the street, they would avoid zombies from a distance and not let them get close. In this way, the blood-stained clothes outside could also play a role.
Li Feng put his ear to the floor, and heard the two people below start to search through the boxes and cabinets, trying to find him. And they had already found the zombie killed by Li Feng in the room below, which made it clear that there was someone in the room.
Lifeng did not feel the slightest bit threatened by these two people, but instead was filled with excitement.
Several days had passed since he was captured for experiments. Although he could guess what had happened during these days, he was still a little confused. He needed to find a living person and find out what had happened.
As for the guns in their hands, that is even better. This pistol means there are more guns...
Of course, he would carefully control everything. His previous experience of being captured for experiments and some major disasters in human history that he had learned about made him deeply understand that in the ruins after such a disaster, the greatest threat sometimes came from his own kind who had broken free from the constraints of law and morality.
He looked around the room he was in and saw a huge chandelier on the ceiling. He immediately jumped up, grabbed the chandelier pole, and climbed up nimbly, holding the steel pipe with one hand and the chandelier hook firmly with the other.
This apartment complex originally belonged to the wealthy area of Steel City. Each house was relatively large and tall, so if you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't notice anything on the ceiling.
After a short while, the two people below had checked other rooms and reached the third floor.
"It's here! The fragrance is getting stronger!" It was the deep voice of Liu Laotou.
When Lifeng entered the house, he climbed directly into the balcony, so the door was still locked. At this time, there was a "click" sound, and the door was pried open in an instant.
The first thing that came in was a raised hammer, followed closely by a machete and a pistol. Two fully armed men walked in cautiously.
"Little sheep, don't run, let your uncle see what you look like..." Liu Laotou said with a chuckle. Li Feng could even see the drool on his mouth through the helmet.
“Bang!” The pot with only a little soup left was kicked aside. Sun Laoer, holding a gun, said gloomily: “It can’t be wrong, the people are in this room... Come out quickly, we have no ill intentions! We are good people, and we are here to save you!”
Although Sun Lao Er said this, he made a beheading gesture to Liu Lao Tu and whispered, "Old rules. " It was obvious that he was ready to kill him as soon as he saw him.
They slowly walked forward a few steps and were about to go into the bedroom to check when something strange happened. A dark shadow landed heavily behind them. With two "bangs", the back of their heads were hit at the same time, and then they fell softly to the ground.
Lifeng kicked the two unconscious people on the ground, and took the pistol in Sun Laoer's hand. He found that it was an old-fashioned 90-type pistol, which was designed and put into production in 2090. Now it has become a police pistol, and there are twelve bullets in the magazine. Lifeng had fired this kind of pistol during military training at university, so he was quite familiar with it.
He put the pistol in his pocket and then pulled off the helmets of the two men.
The helmets were removed, revealing the faces of two young men. Although they both addressed each other as "old", they were not very old, only in their twenties. Because they were both wearing helmets, it was difficult to control the force of the knockout blow. Li Feng's first blow was too heavy, and the back of Sun Lao Er's head, along with the helmet, had a large dent, like a deflated ball, and it was obvious that he would not survive.
However, Baldy Liu was still alive even though he had a swelling on the back of his head.
"Wow——" A cup of water was poured on his face, and Liu Laotu slowly woke up.
When he opened his eyes, he immediately saw Li Feng who had moved a chair and sat in front of him. Then he turned around and saw Sun Lao Er with his head sunken. He was so scared that he shouted, "Ah - good man, good man, spare me! Good man, spare me!" To be able to survive in this doomsday, this man is obviously not stupid. He immediately understood his situation. He had been hunting geese all day, and now he had been blinded by the geese.
Li Feng was quite satisfied with Sun Lao Er's reaction. He nodded and asked slowly, "Who are you?"
"We are Scar's subordinates, and we are staying in the Wal-Mart supermarket in the city. I wonder where you are from? We are ignorant and have offended you. Please forgive us..." said Liu Laobalu, observing Li Feng's expression. He saw that Li Feng was just a boy of 18 or 19 years old, and thought that he belonged to some power. If you think about it, since Scar can establish his own power in this ruined city, others can do it too.
Li Feng did not answer, but raised the steel pipe in his hand and smashed it on the ground. With a loud "bang", a bowl-sized hole was smashed into the hard concrete floor, and the steel pipe, which was as thick as his arm, was slightly deformed.
The loud noise made Liu Laotou's ears hurt and he almost fainted. When he was at a loss, Li Feng stared into his eyes and said slowly: "Go ahead, tell me your experience, starting from the time of the disaster. Of course, if you think your head is harder than cement, you can lie."
"Okay, okay, I'll tell you, I'll tell you." Just as Li Feng was staring at him, Liu Laotu clearly felt a strong murderous intent. According to his experience, this kind of murderous intent can only be possessed by people who have truly killed people, or even those who have fought their way out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. This young man in front of him is definitely not easy to fool!
Although he didn't understand why Lifeng wanted to hear his experience, he tactfully didn't ask and instead started by talking about his own identity.
It turns out that this Liu Lao Tu, the deceased Sun Lao Er, the big brother called Scar and their accomplices, all came from Gangcheng Prison!
