Chapter 191 Ranged Death
The stench was revealed by a scream in the corridor at night.
"Ah—a dead man—come on! Dead man! Dead man!"
The woman's voice pierced through the closed doors and windows, reaching Fengmian's ears.
He put down the bowl he was washing, wiped the water on his palm casually and walked out.
As soon as the door was opened, a stench rushed in, and the corridor was filled with this smell.
Although Feng Mian had already guessed that there were widespread deaths in this place like the old residential buildings before, he was still surprised when he walked out of the house.
These few days, he and Jiang Tang stayed at home, taking a break from the high-intensity action of hunting the demons and improving their abilities before, and taking a good rest for a while.
And before sealing the sleep, he was injured by Zhu Jiuyin's wind blade. Zhu Jiuyin was much stronger than the beast he had faced before, and the wound it caused was more difficult to heal.
The wound on his right chest took several days to heal.
"Dead... dead..."
The woman's screams had already subsided, and turned into a frightened murmur stuck in her throat.
Feng Mian opened the door, and saw a woman in a blue nightgown sitting on the ground, she was clutching her heart, as if she might collapse from a heart attack at any moment due to fright.
The woman's eyes were fixed on the hellish scene in front of her.
There were several corpses lying on the ground in the corridor, all of which had already rotted, and they were exactly the same as the old people who died before the hibernation. They exuded the same strange smell and rotten smell, and they also rotted from the internal organs.
These people fell on the floor of the aisle, and it seemed that they just passed the door, and they died unconsciously, without even a trace of struggle and pain on their faces.
They didn't even experience a normal death process. They didn't suffer from illness or feel pain. They weren't killed by strange beasts, they just fell down like this, and then stopped breathing to reveal their rotting bodies.
Did they die instantly, or did they die a long time ago, because their internal organs were not completely rotten, so they could continue to act like normal people for a period of time?
The corridors were filled with this rotten stench, and it was conceivable that the people who died in this building were definitely not the only ones in the corridors.
It is unknown how many such corpses are still lying in those closed doors.
The woman covered her mouth in horror, kept kicking her feet, and crawled back into the room.
She slammed the door shut as if it was safe.
Jiang Tang stood beside Feng Mian, covering her nose: "When I lived at your place, those... didn't have such a strong smell..."
"It may be that we handled it in a timely manner before, and the corpses were not overly decomposed." Feng Mian thought for a while, "And the corpses there should not be as many as in this building."
There are only old-fashioned residential buildings with the highest six floors, but here are all high-rise residential buildings with more than [-] floors.
The population here is several times more than the total number of people in the old residential area where they lived before the hibernation. The stench here is so strong that one can imagine the number of dead bodies.
Feng Mian pulled Jiang Tang back into the room, the smell in the hallway was really bad, there were too many corpses here, and he had no intention of burying the corpses here.
"Is this caused by some strange beast?" Jiang Tang looked at the news reports.
"Temporary broadcast, there have been many deaths in Ning City recently. The cause is unknown. I hope that the general public will try to avoid going out as much as possible to avoid danger."
Even if the news didn't say so, no one would go out in this weather, unless they wanted to be roasted,
Feng Mian picked up the remote control and turned off the TV: "It should be that there are too many strange beasts that have appeared in Ning City recently, and besides the strange beasts, there is nothing that can cause so many people to die at the same time. .”
Ginger Tang was unusually confused: "What should we do?"
All she thought about before was how to survive the crisis, and she wanted to become stronger so that she would not be a hindrance when facing strange beasts.
But in the situation before them, they didn't even see the appearance of the alien beast, but so many people had already died, and they didn't even know where the alien beast that caused all this was.
Also just now, Jiang Tang suddenly realized that more people will die in this disaster, maybe everyone will die in the end, will she and Feng Mian really be spared by then?
Even if they survived, is there any difference between being alive and being dead in this lonely world where everyone is almost dead?
She is not a person who is so afraid of being alone, but if she is allowed to survive in a world without other people, she will still feel at a loss and panic.
"Feng Mian, how long will this situation last?" She was standing by the window, at this time the sun that had been hanging for nearly thirty hours had set, and the outside world was shrouded in moonlight.
Feng Mian tried to sense the place with the strongest energy fluctuations. Although he really didn't want to save anything, he didn't want to live in a pile of corpses every day.
The power of the alien beast that caused all this must be very powerful, so he locked on the place with the widest fluctuation range: "I just tried to locate the place where the alien beast might exist, it is..."
"Cross-river bridge!"
Ginger Tang took over his words, and she also found the location with the fastest energy flickering frequency from the system map just now.
Feng Mian stood up: "Let's go and have a look, maybe if we get rid of that strange beast, people won't continue to die. You can't live your life smelling this smell every day."
When I went out, I found that not only the residential area, but also countless miserable corpses were lying on the street.
They are more terrifying than the corpses lying in the corridor or at home. No one collects their corpses. Under the recent exposure to the scorching sun and high temperature, the water and blood in these corpses evaporate quickly.
All of them turned into mummies with hideous faces.
After walking through the street and reaching the bridge, Feng Mian realized that the water level of the river had dropped a lot.
He looked at the bridge in the distance, which was stopped by the high temperature in the middle of the construction, and still maintained the collapsed state.
All around seems to be business as usual.
"We've arrived at the place where the alien beast is." Jiang Tang glanced at the map on the system panel, and the place where they were standing was the place where the red dot flashed the fastest.
Feng Mian looked around: "There are no strange beasts here, not even a gap."
The rift near here was merged by another rift not long ago, and no new rifts have continued to be created since then.
He stood on the edge of the broken bridge and looked into the river. There was nothing abnormal in the water. The only change might be the drop of the water level.
There was a sudden roar of a car from behind. Driving in this weather is really courageous.
Feng Mian turned around and saw five or six cars parked by the river, among which the bright red Porsche was particularly bright.
A group of people came down from the car one after another, most of them were familiar faces, Feng Mian met one of them more than once before leaving Jade Bird.
