C9 Regret

Chen Xing turned the accelerator to the maximum and rushed towards the north.

In the wilderness, there was no law in the "Zero Zone", where there was no satellite signal. The people who were originally chatting happily in the town would become ferocious beasts the moment they left the town.

Although they were hundreds of meters away from each other and could not be scanned, Chen Xing was sure that there was more than one person in the car. With his current strength and equipment, he could not defeat them.

"Wu..."

The engine hummed, and the needle on the speedometer entered the red zone. 90 kilometers was the highest speed in the wilderness. However, after running for more than ten minutes, he still could not shake off the pursuers.

Compared to the two-wheeled motorcycle, the four-wheeled All Terrain Vehicle was faster, but it was not as agile as the motorcycle. There was also a gap in the off-road ability. Many bikes could go on the road, but the All Terrain Vehicle might not be able to.

Once they reached an open area, the All Terrain Vehicle would quickly approach. Once they climbed a slope, it would slow down again. In this way, neither side could do anything to the other. They maintained a distance of 300 to 400 meters and chased after each other.

Chen Xing kept driving towards the north. After about 30 kilometers, the road ahead became more and more difficult to walk. There were many different sized rocks on the ground, and the motorcycle was shaking. However, the All Terrain Vehicle was still chasing after them, causing him to curse in his heart.

The north of Orchid Town was the outskirts of the human controlled area, the depths of the wilderness. In Chen Xing's memory, there would be a large rock mountain in front of him, and the terrain would become more and more complicated. When he reached there, the advantage of the motorcycle would become even more obvious.

After more than an hour, the terrain began to rise. Both sides were much slower, and they were only about forty to fifty kilometers away from each other.

"Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!"

Suddenly, the sharp whistling sound of bullets brushing through the air could be heard, followed by the sound of gunshots.

"Da Da Da!" "Da Da Da!" "Da Da Da Da!" "Da Da Da Da Da!"

Chen Xing quickly lowered his body and half-squatted on the motorcycle. From the sound of the gunshots, he could tell that the other party was using an AK47. There were at least three guns firing at the same time.

It seemed that the other party also knew that once they entered the mountainous area, they would lose track of them. They could not wait to shoot. Fortunately, the effective range of the AK47 was only two hundred meters. Although it still had a destructive power of over a thousand meters, it could not guarantee accuracy. The distance between the two sides was three to four hundred meters. In the naked eye, it was like a small black dot. It was a little difficult to hit him. Furthermore, both sides were moving at a high speed. Even if it was a sniper rifle, it would be difficult to hit him.

Furthermore, bullets were extremely precious. Rifle cartridges were worth about two to three silver coins. It was impossible for the other party to keep firing. Sure enough, after the other party finished firing a box of bullets, he stopped shooting.

Half an hour later, Chen Xing bypassed a rock mountain and finally shook off the other party. After running forward for more than ten minutes, he got onto the mountaintop and looked into the distance. He did not see any traces of the All Terrain Vehicle. Finally, he heaved a sigh of relief.

He estimated that this place was at least seventy to eighty kilometers away from Orchid Town. It was currently four o'clock in the afternoon. If he were to rush back now, he would be able to arrive before dark.

However, the other party would follow him tomorrow. Moreover, the other party was richer than him. Perhaps he could catch up with him if he got a new car. Therefore, he could not go back. He had to spend the night in the wilderness. He would go to the water station tomorrow to kill all the zombies there and then find the entrance.

This place was already the outskirts of the human controlled area. It was very dangerous. On the way here, he saw many wandering necrophagous dogs and walking dead. There were also some groups of people walking in the wilderness. They ate almost everything. As long as it was alive, it was their food.

He rode on the motorcycle and moved forward slowly. Before nightfall, he had to find a place with a wide field of vision so that he could deal with any danger that might happen at any time.

"Huff … Huff … Huff …"

As he was thinking, a black shadow suddenly rushed out from behind the rock in front of him and pounced towards Chen Xing. The distance between the two was less than five meters.

Chen Xing subconsciously pulled out his pistol and opened the safety lock. He fired a shot.

"Bang!"

The black shadow flipped in the air and landed on the ground, struggling. Chen Xing turned the motorcycle around, tightened the gas, and drove straight over.

"Crack!" The heavy wheels of the motorcycle pressed against the head of the necrophagous dog, and a clear cracking sound was heard.

Looking at the twitching corpse on the ground, Chen Xing couldn't help but wipe off his cold sweat. If it wasn't for his good luck, he would probably be the one lying on the ground right now.

He had to quickly get money to buy a beginner evolution agent to activate his talent ability, "Danger Sense." It was precisely because of this ability that he was able to survive in all kinds of dangers in his previous life.

Danger Perception was also known as the "Spiritual Tentacles" or "Grey Talent". Those who had this talent could sense the danger in their surroundings and ignore obstacles. It was a very practical ability.

The range of the lv1 danger perception was about fifteen meters. For example, Chen Xing could have discovered the necrophagous dog hiding behind the rock and reacted in time. He could either run, fight, or set up a trap.

Then, Chen Xing continued to explore forward. However, this time, his speed was much slower. He would try his best to avoid any place that could hide things.

Looking around, there were bare rock mountains everywhere. The broken stones were everywhere, and it was a desolate scene.

About half an hour later, he found a cave halfway up the mountain. It was about half a person tall, one meter wide, and more than two meters deep. It was just enough for him to sit in and lean against the wall.

There were some compressed biscuits and empty cans on the wall. It was not hard to tell that someone had been here before. Looking carefully, there were blurry words carved on the wall.

"Yang Zhichao has come here for a tour."

"Fuck you, you are dead!"

"It's so lonely in the long night. Add me to your social group number: 1169765274."

"Oh, my dear, oh, my dear~"

...

Chen Xing looked at the messages of different people and cleaned up the trash. Then, he went out and unloaded the water, food, and small coal oil stove from the car. He then blocked the entrance of the cave with the motorcycle. If he encountered any danger, he could still block it.

After settling down, he first washed his hands and face with water, then lit a kerosene stove and boiled some hot water to drink. Then he opened a can of meat and added dried vegetables and noodles to cook.

The Northern Wilderness was located to the north of the Dragon Saliva River, and it was also the northernmost part of the Red Soil Continent. It was either a wasteland or a mountain rock, and it was impossible to plant crops. Most of the food came from the Dragon Snake River. Due to the long distance, the fresh vegetables and meat were very expensive, and most people ate this kind of canned meat and vegetable water.

After eating, Chen Xing sat at the entrance of the cave and looked at the messy rocks below the mountain and the sparse grass between the rocks, and he was stunned.

It had to be said that this position was very good. His field of vision was wide, and he could see the scene thousands of miles away.

To the north of this place was the Black Death Forest. The radiation there was still very severe, and he had to wear protective clothing to enter.

The plants there had already undergone a complete mutation, and it was completely different from before the great disaster. One of the plants called Black Moss was the most famous. It was precisely because of its existence that the radiation was difficult to disperse. It could absorb and use the radiation to survive in the cell fluid as a necessity for survival.

On the surface, it seemed that the Black Moss was absorbing the radiation, but in reality, because the radiation contained extremely high energy, the Black Moss needed a long period of time to digest it. Not only did it not remove the pollution, but it also prevented the radiation from naturally decomposing.

As time passed, the night fell and the sky was filled with twinkling stars.

Chen Xing had set up two traps on both sides of the cave. Once a creature approached, the rope would be pulled and the grenade would be detonated. Even if the target was not hit, it would still wake him up.

After setting up the traps, Chen Xing returned to the cave and used the motorcycle to block the entrance. Then, he leaned against the wall and closed his eyes to rest.

"Awoo!"

After an unknown period of time, Chen Xing was suddenly woken up by a howl. He quickly crawled to the cave entrance and looked outside.

Below him, black shadows were running around like the wind.

Wormy Wolf!

When this term flashed across his mind, Chen Xing almost couldn't breathe.

Wormy Wolf was the true overlord of the wilderness. Their bodies were covered in hard shells and they were extremely strong. If he used a rifle to shoot at them from a close distance, he might not be able to kill a single one.

Even if he could, it was not something he could deal with at his current stage. Furthermore, the Wormy Wolf was a group of animals, and there were at least a hundred of them.

He subconsciously looked at the motorcycle. The Great Wall Cavalry, which was sixty kilometers per hour, was as slow as a tortoise in front of the Wormy Wolf. One had to know that a Wormy Wolf that was running at full speed could reach a hundred and twenty kilometers per hour.

If it was in the wilderness, he could still barely run, but in this mountainous terrain filled with rocks and uneven terrain, he would be caught up in the blink of an eye.

The best way now was to hide in the cave and hold his breath, waiting for fate to decide for him.

"Sha Sha Sha..." "Huff … Huff …"

In the darkness, Chen Xing covered his mouth and nose with his clothes and curled up his body, trying his best not to make any sound.

The sound of footsteps kept coming from the outside. The sound of breathing was faintly discernible, sometimes close and sometimes far away, making him feel scared.

At least fifty Wormy Wolves were running past him. From this, it could be seen that the scale of this wolf pack was no less than five hundred.

The scene of him being torn apart by the wolves could not help but appear in his mind. He could not help but pull out his pistol and slowly push the safety button. If necessary, he would shoot himself in the temple. In any case, he was going to die anyway, so there was no need to be so shameless. Instead of suffering the pain of being torn apart, he might as well take care of it himself.

"Sigh …" He sighed softly. He did not expect that after coming back to life, he would have to bid farewell to the world. It was impossible for him not to feel regretful.

"Awoo …"

The howl of the alpha wolf rang out once again, and the footsteps flying past him became more and more frequent.

"Roar!"

At this moment, a roar resounded through the wilderness, causing Chen Xing's ears to buzz and make him temporarily deaf.

He could not care about that much anymore. He quickly crawled to the entrance of the cave and looked down the mountain.

He saw a huge figure a few thousand meters away. It was at least a hundred meters tall, and each step was more than thirty meters long. Its feet stepped on the ground, shattering the gravel. Wherever it went, it would destroy everything in its path, causing the earth to shake.

Corpse King!

Chen Xing was so shocked that his hair stood on end.

In the next moment, the tide of Wormy Wolves rushed towards the Corpse King.

The latter clenched his fists and raised his chest. He swung his arms and smashed them towards the area where the wolves were the most concentrated.

Boom!

With a muffled sound, the ground was smashed into a concave shape. Broken stones flew everywhere and sand and dirt flew everywhere. The flock of wolves were instantly scattered. Only a few of them managed to climb up the Corpse King's shoulders and crazily bite at its neck.

"Wuuwaa!" The Corpse King raised its head and let out a heaven-shaking roar. It grabbed a few Wormy Wolves on its neck and stuffed them into its mouth. It chewed and let out a clear sound of bones cracking.

In an instant, the wolves' momentum sharply decreased. They let out a low cry and scattered to the sides, like a river that was flowing in two directions.

"Awoo …"

However, at this moment, a wolf's howl pierced through the clouds and split the rocks. Looking over, a white light flew down from the mountain in the distance. It was as fast as a flying rainbow, and it pounced towards the Corpse King.
