He's different; he can definitely have a lot of fun with Chiu Chiu.
Chiu Chiu looked up at him, and after a long while, shook her head.
Seven: "?"
Seven's eyes widened instantly, his expression as if struck by lightning, filled with disbelief: "You don't want to live next to me!"
"Chirp chirp, don't you like playing with me?!"
Of all the little ones, Seven has always felt that she and Chiu Chiu are the best of friends.
Sixth Child is too proud, Eighth Child is too irritable, and Ninth Child is not a kind person either.
Even before the little ones at the very front got close, it was as if you could see words on their faces—
I am noble, and you are not worthy of me.
Of all the cubs, only one tiger cub, for some reason, has gotten along better with Qiuqiu, and they've been video chatting a lot lately.
But who knows when the connection will be lost again.
No matter what, Chiu Chiu should choose him!
"It's not that I don't want to play with you."
Seeing his expression, Qiuqiu quickly reached out and patted him reassuringly: "Don't be upset, I like playing with you."
"Just like your older brother, you're also absent at night."
Chiu Chiu is an insecure little chiu; he needs someone to accompany him to sleep at night.
She really slept well with him; now, counting them all, there's only Bazai.
Bazai is a restless sleeper, and his little tentacles often smear his face.
well.
Chiu Chiu herself is also very worried.
While they were talking about this, Ba Zai was eavesdropping.
Bazai also wanted to know if Qiujiu didn't sleep next to Qizai because she wanted to sleep with him!
But after listening for a long time, it had nothing to do with him.
The kids on the bus were still chatting about who was best friends with whom. Back in the dorm, the other two kids were much more harmonious.
"Big brother."
Because of the limited view, it wasn't possible to see much just by looking out the window. So the little butterfly spoke to Yu An, "I want to fly out and take a look."
"OK."
Yu An agreed, "Just don't fly too far."
Liu Zai flew out to check the situation. Yu An and Xiao Jiu, on the other hand, planned to wander around the dormitory a bit more.
Yu An recalled Xie Chiyuan's words, and a faint hope remained in her heart for this place.
Xie Chiyuan said that the distress signal came from here.
"Xiao Jiu, there are the most people at the university. Do you think there might be any survivors here?"
Even though this place has been under lockdown for months, it's not impossible to survive if there's enough food and water.
Xiao Jiu, however, held no hope: "Big brother, we already saw the situation here when we came in."
"This is a city that has been completely abandoned, and no one wants to save it."
"If there were really anyone guarding this place, they should have given up hope long ago."
The city is overrun with zombies, and you know perfectly well that no matter how long you hide or how safe you are, you won't receive any help from the outside world.
In this situation, psychological defenses will inevitably collapse sooner or later.
"But there's a distress signal here."
Yu An insisted on this point: "The distress signal must have been sent out by the survivors."
Besides the survivors, who else would want to call for help?
Xiao Jiu paused for a moment, then suddenly said, "Evolved zombies have self-awareness and can send signals to the outside world."
Xiao Jiu analyzes this from the hunter's perspective: if he were in a closed city, there would be no fresh food left.
Desiring to eat, he would naturally try to hunt.
One method of hunting is to release bait and wait for the prey to come to you.
Xiao Jiu hesitated several times before finally revealing her thoughts.
He wasn't sure his older brother would listen to this predator's theory.
Moreover, he had always been a well-behaved son in front of his older brother. After saying all this, it's uncertain whether his older brother will change his opinion of him.
"You're right."
Just as Xiao Jiu was feeling uneasy, Yu An patted his head and replied, "I will tell Xie Chiyuan about what you said."
Before this, they had always believed that the distress signal must have been sent out by a survivor.
But they did overlook the possibility that Xiao Jiu raised.
"Big brother."
Xiao Jiu rubbed her palm against his and said conveniently, "Let's leave once we find the bamboo. Even if this place is a trap, it won't hurt anyone."
The West District only sent one zombie king this time; it's impossible for the zombie king to die in the zombie den.
The greatest value of their trip was probably just to get some bamboo for the third son to take back and plant.
"Let's take another look."
Yu An didn't give a clear answer. The kids didn't want to pay attention to this zombie king, but he wanted to observe him further.
After all, this zombie king is also related to the safety of the West District.
The dormitory was spotless. After closing the door, Yu An followed Xiao Jiu to inspect the dormitory building.
Zombies can call for their companions by howling, and Xiao Jiu didn't want to waste the mycelium, so she tore up a bunch of strips of cloth herself.
Those who tried to pounce on them like food were killed instantly.
They stood still, even a little afraid of them, and were tied up but not killed.
Xiao Jiu felt increasingly uneasy as they walked: "Big brother, haven't we encountered any evolved zombies yet?"
The one tied up in their dormitory seemed to have some faint consciousness, but it was at most a rudimentary form of evolution.
M City has been under lockdown for so long, it's impossible that there isn't even a single advanced-evolved zombie.
Zombies also have a sense of territory, and zombies that evolve here will definitely consider this place their first choice of territory.
"We haven't encountered it yet."
Yu An frowned slightly, a sense of unease rising in her heart.
He glanced at Xiao Jiu, and their eyes met, a sense of unease growing stronger in their hearts.
"Big brother—"
"Big brother!"
Xiao Jiu and Liu Zai both called out "Big Brother" at the same time. Liu Zai flew in from outside, flying quickly and urgently: "Something's not right here."
"I just flew around and saw that the entire university is sealed off. A huge zombie horde is pouring in from outside!"
A zombie horde isn't scary, but a zombie horde composed of advanced zombies is!
Zombies that have evolved to a higher stage have the ability to contend with superhumans and mutants.
Six and Nine are very capable fighters, but if they were to fight a large group of zombies at the same time, they were afraid they wouldn't be able to keep an eye on their leader.
Advanced zombies are not as common as cabbages; under normal circumstances, it's impossible for so many to gather in a city.
Jiu Zai's expression turned serious upon hearing the news.
The two exchanged a glance at each other at home, and Jiu Zai's conspiracy theory began to spread: "They came to surround the university, did they already find us?"
"Was it that old man...? Was it the old man who lured us in?"
“Ninth Child, they might not be after us, they might be after that old man.”
After calmly considering the situation, Liu Zai thought of other possibilities.
They're not the only ones at this university.
Nine-Zai: "..."
Nine-Zai looked at him with the same eyes that looked at an idiot: "High-level zombies attacking the zombie king, isn't that just like chicks flocking together to find their mother hen?"
Their meeting wasn't an attack; it was a reunion.
Liu Zai pursed his lips and remained silent.
The zombie horde arrived with overwhelming force, quickly pouring in through several gates of the university.
"roar!"
"Roar!"
"Roar roar roar!"
The zombies' voices rose and fell, loud and clear. They communicated as they searched the campus.
The old man who was originally on campus has now disappeared.
Six-Eyed kept flying in and out, trying to figure out who these zombies were targeting.
"Brother, they went to the bamboo forest."
"They came out of the bamboo forest and they're walking this way."
"Brother, they are still 200 meters away from us."
As they drew closer, the two little ones tensed up all over.
Yu An has returned to the dormitory she just tidied up.
