Moth to the flame

  In the evening, the sun was about to set, the sunlight became much softer, and the shadows cast by high-rise buildings covered most of each street.

  Outside the building of Qicheng Epidemic Prevention Center, dozens of skinners who had been hiding in the surrounding buildings came out and began to wander on the streets.

  When the power of the sun gradually weakened, it was time for them to move.

  Next, they would go hunting for food, whether it was rotten canned food, rats in the gutter, or large animals that were alone, they were all their favorite delicacies.

  Although the Stone Statue Disease Type 1 vaccine gave them fragile and weird bodies, it strengthened their organizations from the inside, turning them into fragile and powerful monsters.

  A skinner wandered on the street, sniffing the smell left by the human during the day, and the desire to skin was born in his chaotic consciousness.

  Just then, a low roar came from the underground of the Epidemic Prevention Center building, followed by a loud "bang" at the exit of the underground parking lot, and the parking pole was smashed to pieces by a black shadow.

  The skinner turned his head and saw the black steel body and six pairs of huge road wheels rolling over. Before he could react, he was rolled under the wheels and crushed to pieces with a relieved smile.

  A heavy armored vehicle drove out of the underground garage at high speed and ran rampant on the street!

  A group of skinners around immediately screamed and rushed towards the armored vehicle, blocking the way of the armored vehicle like a mantis trying to stop a car, and were crushed to pieces!

  In the cockpit of the armored vehicle, Shen Feng controlled the direction of travel while talking to himself:

  "This thing drives almost the same as Brother Hai's truck..."

  The armored vehicle was already full of diesel, and there were several large barrels of spare fuel, as well as a large number of light and heavy weapons and ammunition piled in the cabin.

  In addition to Shen Feng, there were four stone statues in military uniforms sitting in the cabin, as if they were preparing to go out on a mission before the virus broke out completely.

  With this armored vehicle, Shen Feng's heart was simply bubbling with joy.

  What beasts, what skinners, are nothing but a piece of cake.

  Humans with heavy weapons are the well-deserved kings in this doomsday world!

  No matter how sharp the claws of beasts are, they can never tear through steel!

  One skinner after another fell under the wheels of the armored vehicle, like moths to a flame.

  In their chaotic consciousness, they clearly understood that this was a good way to quickly end all the pain.

  Shen Feng's face was solemn, without any teasing, but like a preacher performing a sacred ritual.

  For these poor incinerators, only death is the ultimate relief.

  Their attack on Shen Feng, to some extent, was just a search for death.

  When the armored vehicle drove through the entire street, everything was quiet, leaving only the roar of the engine.

  The wheels had turned red, leaving two bright ruts, emitting a wine-red glow in the afterglow of the setting sun.

  The sky darkened quickly. Shen Feng did not stop and drove the armored vehicle directly to the entrance of the highway in the suburbs of Qicheng City, then turned off the engine.

  Although he could go directly north to the capital according to the built-in map of the car computer, the road at night was difficult to walk. It would be troublesome if he got stuck in a pit, so he planned to spend the night here and wait until tomorrow.

  There was a gas station at the intersection of the highway. The door of the convenience store was wide open, and there were some stone statues of gas station employees standing.

  Shen Feng turned on the headlights of the armored vehicle and shot directly at the gas station convenience store. He got out of the armored vehicle with a shotgun, searched the convenience store, and returned to the car again.

  As a person who has not received professional shooting training, he still prefers shotguns, which do not require much aiming.

  And after using the gun for two days, he also found a more serious problem, that is, his arm strength is seriously insufficient.

  Not to mention how heavy these things are, the recoil from firing multiple times alone has made his arms sore and bruised.

  If he hadn't slowly figured out the trick to firing later, his shoulder would probably have been dislocated by the shotgun.

  It is necessary to constantly do strength training and supplement a lot of protein to build muscle.

  As night fell, Shen Feng used the spoiled gasoline found in the convenience store and a few pieces of wood to light a fire. He climbed onto the roof of the armored vehicle and lay down, staring at the starry sky in a daze.

  The city of Qi in the distance was already dark, like a ghost town. Only the lights of the epidemic prevention center building were still bright, indicating that the solar energy system was still working.

  After a few years or decades, when the system was damaged and the light disappeared completely, the last traces of human technology would also disappear completely in this city.

  This city would also disappear in the wilderness, waiting for the discovery of new intelligent creatures.

  Suddenly, there was a faint sound of footsteps in the darkness. Shen Feng immediately sat up straight, picked up his shotgun and looked around.

  In the darkness not far from the fire, a pair of emerald eyes appeared.

  Then these eyes approached again, and a group of beasts appeared in front of Shen Feng.

  It was a pack of wolves.

  Shen Feng was a little surprised to see that the scarred golden retriever was walking in the front.

  They actually followed here?

  Will they attack again?

  If Shen Feng was still a little nervous when he encountered them during the day, he was no longer afraid now.

  He only needed to get into the armored vehicle and close the door. The wolves were simply lambs to be slaughtered.

  Just then, the golden retriever continued to walk towards him, holding a bloody leg in its mouth!

  Based on Shen Feng's long-term barbecue experience, this should be a leg of lamb!

  The golden retriever walked to the armored vehicle, put down the lamb leg, then stuck out his tongue to smile, and gently shook his tail.

  Seeing this scene, Shen Feng's heart suddenly soured.

  This fool!

  What does it want to do?

  Does it want him to be its master?

  Obviously, Shen Feng's appearance reminded the golden retriever of the past, and the years with humans, so it took the initiative to show its goodwill to Shen Feng.

  The golden retriever squatted on the ground, staring at Shen Feng blankly, and the wolf pack behind it disappeared into the darkness.

  Shen Feng sighed and said:

  "You don't need human company anymore. You are the king of the wolf pack now. Live well with your tribe...Humans are not worth your nostalgia."

  I am just a passer-by in this world. Whether I leave here or turn into a stone statue, I only have one month at most, and I can't give this golden retriever any company at all.

  "Woof...Woof...Woo..." The golden retriever seemed to sense Shen Feng's emotions, shaking his tail and barking a few times, then lowered his head.

  Just then, there was a burst of wolf barking and chaotic hoof sounds in the distance.

  In the darkness, seven or eight antelopes suddenly rushed out, and behind them were the wolves chasing them!

  Just now, the wolves did not leave, but found the traces of antelopes nearby and went to hunt!

  Seeing the antelopes rushing past the fire and about to escape the hunting circle of the wolves, Shen Feng raised his shotgun and pulled the trigger instantly.

  "Boom!"

  A burst of steel balls was shot out, and two antelopes passing by the fire were immediately knocked to the ground, caught up by the wolves following closely, and dragged into the darkness again.

  Shen Feng smiled and said to the golden haired man, "Go ahead, I'll treat everyone to a feast."

  As if sensing Shen Feng's intention, the golden haired man called out to him a few times, turned around and rushed into the wolf pack, and began to feast together.

  Shen Feng jumped off the armored vehicle and picked up the lamb leg, cleaned it, and directly built a fire on the roof of the car, took out the seasoning and began to roast it.

  The fat and tender lamb leg was roasted to a crispy outside and tender inside, and the lamb fat sizzled out, and the aroma soon drifted in the dark night.

  The wolves feasted not far away, and called out to Shen Feng from time to time, as if to thank him for his help.

  Shen Feng cut off a piece of meat with a knife and put it in his mouth. The rich aroma spread in his mouth, better than all the roasted lamb he had eaten before.

  He chewed it a few times and swallowed it, leaving a lingering fragrance on his lips and teeth.

  After eating, the golden haired man led the wolf pack to a place not far from the armored vehicle and lay on the ground to sleep together.

  Shen Feng smiled and got into the armored vehicle and fell asleep.

  The wolves were with humans, as if they were nostalgic for the warmth of the lost civilization.

  Shen Feng slept very soundly, and the tension of the past two days was completely relaxed.

  Early the next morning, Shen Feng got out of the cabin and saw the wolves still guarding outside, as if waiting for him to wake up.

  Looking at the expectant golden retriever, Shen Feng raised his gun and fired at the ground in front of the golden retriever, hardening his heart and saying:

  "Let's go, you no longer need a master, all you need is freedom."
