The Demon Swordsman 3
Ch. 137 - A Far Place
The situation ahead was much worse. Xin Chen forced the others to stop running. Looking ahead to where the three monstrous creatures Xin Chen had faced were located there and were aware of their existence. From a distance the other undead smelled the scent of their bodies, started walking and found the three.
Want to retreat backwards is the same, they have been chased. Xin Chen could not think clearly, his brain was suddenly empty as Lang said. The wolf itself retreated, its tail standing back. While Luo Li also did not see a single path that allowed them to exit. Wherever they went the undead were always following them.
"Truly finished this time."
Lang also began to think of the last way to survive. Against them directly.
"Dam!!!"
Someone from above the roof shouted, Xin Chen immediately turned his head quickly. Find other humans calling them.
"Ride up!"
He lowered a leash, "Or you guys don't have a chance!"
He warned as he pointed in front of them, the three creatures were approaching. Xin Chen pulled Luo Li and Lang over there. She carried Lang on her shoulder while Luo Li held on to the rope herself.
The man pulled the lever, lifting them up to the fifth floor. Xin Chen's legs had been pulled from below, making the iron on top had been restrained.
When it came to Xin Chen, Luo Li and Lang were instantly faced by the sharp gaze of the man. His stature was rough, his large muscles made the man's shoulders field. His face showed no hospitality at all, even so Xin Chen thanked him at least they escaped death.
He looked down a little. The creature could not climb to the fifth floor. The rope rolled up the man, but his eyes did not go out of Xin Chen's way.
"Who are you?"
Out of all the questions, that sentence came straight out of his mouth. Xin Chen cleared his throat, "You alone?"
"Maybe you got it wrong," he said of correcting his words just now. "I mean, how did you get rid of that infected so much? You're fast, agile and a little crazy. You must be one of the generals or the big commandos."
Xin Chen stared at each other with Lang. Like asking each other. But it seemed that Xin Chen had to hide his identity first. He couldn't trust strangers right away even though he had saved the lives of the three of them.
"I'm just a distant person who happens to be stuck on this road."
"Other times be careful, the path you walk is no longer the path of man. It's an infected road, if you want to join them, just go through there." He shook his shoulders, "None of you has been bitten?"
"Not one." Luo Li answered first from Xin Chen.
"Infected? What do you mean it's them?" Xin Chen pointed down. The man stopped rolling the rope, "Moreover?" saith.
"Those who are bitten or exposed to the virus are called infected. You have to be careful with them at night. But even during the day they are dangerous. Moreover, you deliberately joined their party. Want to be a meal?"
After rolling the rope, the man introduced himself. "Call me Three."
"Huh?" Xin Chen had never heard of such a strange name
"I used to be a military man, now just an ex. My code name is 03."
"Your real name?"
"Dan ... " Three turned his eyes to Lang. "You're a hunted creature of researchers here. But you seem to know that better than I do."
Lang did not answer. And even talk about something else.
"You helped us for a certain purpose."
Three laughed out loud, breathing heavily afterwards. He had just laughed at his own circumstances, rather.
"In times like these, finding a single living human is like finding a diamond. I need a friend to fight with me. To get out of this place." As he explained as he walked, Tiga looked desperate.
"Three years I've been stuck here. Eating whatever helps me stay. But in the end I realized, I would just die for nothing here. If only I had gone outside, that would have changed to where I died."
Three turned his face. But Xin Chen could see the man's tears.
"I want to find my wife and children. I miss them so much. That's the only reason why I'm still here."
He turned his body, "There's one place in this Empire. A refuge for living humans. There is a supply of food, drinks, all our needs. Let me guess, surely you guys want to go there too?"
"true." This time as well, Luo Li replied. Xin Chen started to understand even though it was not completely.
"Good, we have the same goal at least. Come on inside. You must be starving."
At that moment Xin Chen only realized the pain in the stomach that he had long forgotten about. He thought it was just a tear in the fight, in fact his stomach was starving since a few days was caught in a terrible situation.
The three thrusting food in cans, Xin Chen was a little astonished. But he can make sure it is edible. They were in a third-floor building, the rest two floors down was already filled by the infected. The stairs connecting the third and second floors have been closed. The only way if they were forced out of the place was only from the fifth floor. With that levers.
"Then ... How did you survive three years? Food and drink aren't here forever."
Xin Chen started to issue some nagging questions.
"By going out and looking for her." Three answered without hesitation
"Breaked thousands of infected?"
"There's no other choice, man. You want to live? You have to risk your life to die. Lucky for you, the angel of death thought nothing of picking me up. Perhaps his work was too much in this Empire. Haha." He laughed at his own jokes. In difficult times like this, he even forgot how to complain or feel the pain of hunger. He always sat alone, laughing at everything tragic in front of him. Then cry over everyone who went from his side.
"Wife, she's so beautiful. " Xin Chen looked back at those teary eyes, "His skin is as white as a cloud, his eyes never looked at me with anger. And my son, he's so funny. Her hair was curly and her skin dark, but her eyes were just as beautiful as my wife's. They always make me smile and cry at the same time as I remember them ..."
"You will definitely meet them," comforted Xin Chen as he patted her on the back softly, "We're going to their place."
"Then you have to wait a few days, I want to prepare something."
The smile on Three's face couldn't be Xin Chen's. The man had a clearance. Leaving Xin Chen alone in the room.
Xin Chen walked over, about to talk to Luo Li about something. But his steps stopped, his body frozen. Seeing Luo Li sitting leaning against the wall. That blood wound on his arm, it's an infected bite mark. The young man gasped when he realized Xin Chen had been pecking at the door of the room.
"You ..."
