blood plague

Chapter 221 Reality and Nothingness

Naturally, Iger wouldn't be so stubborn that he would lead people directly towards Pudu City. That's not called investigation, that's called death.

The Joint Field Service Team is preparing to go to Todo Town first.

Todo Town is a bridgehead with both offense and defense, which is the best entry point into Pudo City.

The gas station in Todo Town is a good place, and it is the best defense point in Todo Town. Iger fought there once to block the enemy, which was very cool.

At that time, the main reason was that the gun was not strong enough. The barrel of the M16 became very hot after continuous shooting, and it was so serious that it was impossible to hold it.

It was only after that time that Iger knew why squad machine guns were needed in a modern army where automatic rifles were popularized to one man.

This time, Iger specially brought a spare barrel of the M249 machine gun, and a box of 5.56 bullets, which are large and full.

Joanna was driving the car, and Iger sat in the co-pilot and played with his mobile phone while chatting and laughing with everyone. The other two new field team members also talked and laughed to relax their nervous mood.

Nicholas's three new field team members were all added from the security team. Last time Nicholas led the team to the red zone for field work for the first time, and something went wrong.

The recent stable life has made people less vigilant and less sensitive to danger.

Nicholas admitted that he was not as careful in doing things as Iger, and as a result of this little mistake, the field team lost 1 member.

Fortunately, the person just touched it. He said he was infected with 9%. Except for some fever, he seemed to be fine.

Iger heard this information for the first time.

I don't know why, this world...

Iger shook his head, now is not the time to think about it, he should focus all his attention on the investigation.

The town of Todo was ahead, and Joanna asked Iger, "What should I do next?"

"Stop the car when you see the monster, and keep walking if you don't see the monster." Iger said to Joanna after putting away the phone.

The car drove forward for a while, and before entering Toduo Town, everyone had already seen infected people wandering the streets of the town from a distance.

"When you came last time, were there so many infected people?" Iger asked the three of Nicholas, but the three people in the back row shook their heads in unison.

"Joanna, stop." After the car stopped, Iger said to the back row, "I need an observer and loader."

"I'll come." Nicholas opened the door on the left and got out of the car with Iger.

After both of them fell into the carriage, Iger shouted to Joanna: "Joanna, don't worry, I'll make a few waves first to see what's going on."

"Okay." Joanna had already rolled down the car window. She took out an unopened packet of chewing gum from her pocket, peeled off one and threw it into her mouth, then turned around and passed the chewing gum to the two field agents in the back row. Team member, and said: "Come on, when the ping-pong-pong sound overhead, chewing gum will not feel so irritable."

There are too many things in the pickup truck this time, and people can barely stand on it, and there is no place to lie down.Iger took a folding mattress and put it on the top of the pickup truck, and then used the roof of the pickup truck half-upright and half-lying to take a shooting position with the M16 in his hand.

"beng!"

"Beng, beng, beng, beng!"

After a few bursts of shooting, the infected people on the street fell to the ground.

Subsequently, the gunshots attracted a large group of infected people, and they rushed out from the streets of Todo Town, and there seemed to be twenty or thirty of them.

Seeing this, the two field service members in the back row immediately picked up an MP5 from under the seat, and the other held the shotgun standing in the car in his hand, and pointed their muzzles out of the car window.

"Relax, I bet these infected people can't run 100 meters." Joanna said relaxedly.

Sure enough, Iger hadn't finished a single magazine, and all the infected people fell to death.

Iger dropped the magazine, he handed it to Nicholas who was sitting in the car, and then picked up a full magazine and loaded it.

While filling it, Nicholas craned his neck to take a look.

"Finished?" he asked.

"Probably not yet," Iger said.

"beng!"

Before the words fell, Iger shot a newly infected infected person in the headshot.

"There's another wave." Iger said to Nicholas, while patiently waiting for the infected to turn out from the street entrance.

The infected moved too slowly, and Iger killed one as soon as he ran out. Now he feels like he is waiting for the rice to go to the pot.

After more than ten rounds of bullets were fired, no infected person emerged.

Iger replaced the unsatisfactory magazine, he handed the magazine to Nicholas, and then picked up another full magazine and loaded it.

"Didn't you hear the sound?" Iger asked Nicholas thoughtlessly.

"No." Nicholas also replied nonchalantly.

The two of them were talking about screaming.

I have fought two waves of monsters, and there are no screamers.

After losing the screamer's "command", the infected person's movement speed is faster than that of the old man walking around. In Iger's eyes, this is no different from shooting a stationary target.

After three waves of guarding and fighting like this, everyone waited calmly for more than ten minutes, and no more infected people were found. Toduo Town should be emptied.

Whether it is an infected person or a screamer, the sharp and loud sound has an unparalleled attraction to them. If there are infected people in Todo Town, they will definitely be attracted after hearing the continuous gunshots.

"Joanna, let's go to the gas station." Iger yelled at Joanna, and then the pickup truck started slowly.

"There is a commanding height over there, let's go and squat there for a while." Iger said to Nicholas: "I just want to see if these infected people disperse here randomly, or come to hunt you after they notice you, or patrol Team."

The three layers of relationship Iger talked about are more difficult than the next.

The pickup truck slowly approached the town of Todo, and it could be seen from a distance that it had become more dilapidated after not coming for a while.

When Iger was observing the situation on both sides of the road, he suddenly felt an unprecedented palpitation, as if something suddenly pulled his heart, and then the heart beat wildly.

Iger could feel his temples throbbing with his heartbeat, and he couldn't breathe in an instant.

Iger turned his head to Nicholas and asked, "Did you hear..." Then, his eyes darkened and he fell to the ground.

……

I don't know how long it took, Iger woke up, and when he opened his eyes, he found that he was still in the compartment of the pickup truck.

"How long have I been in a coma?" Iger asked Nicholas, who looked extremely flustered.

Seeing that Iger woke up, Nicholas first shouted to the front: "Iger is awake." Then he said to Iger: "You just fell down, and it was only a little over ten seconds."

"Help me up." Iger stood up with the help of Nicholas, and he found that the pickup truck was leaving the town of Todo.It turned out that after Iger suddenly fell into a coma, Nicholas exclaimed, Joanna turned the car around immediately, and the pickup truck did not enter Todo Town.

Originally, Joanna's plan was to find a safe place to check on Iger's situation. Unexpectedly, he woke up as soon as he turned the car around.

"Stop." Iger shouted to the front.After hearing Iger's shout, Joanna slowed down the car and stopped.

As soon as the car stopped, Joanna quickly came to the compartment. She hugged Iger and pressed her face to Iger's forehead and face. The temperature was normal and there was no fever.

This is what Joanna learned when taking care of children. It is more sensitive to detect whether the other party has a fever with her face than with her hands.

"Iger, what happened just now, is it hypoglycemia or are you too tired?" Joanna asked Iger worriedly.

Iger shook his head slowly. After he moved a bit, he found that his body had returned to normal, so he said to Joanna and Nicholas: "You wait for me here, I need to go and have a look."

After speaking, Iger jumped out of the pickup truck.

Iger stretched out his right hand, and he pressed his right hand to his heart, feeling the pulse from his chest.

"I'm a living person, not a zombie." Iger said to himself.

For a long time, Iger has a mystery about his body that has not been solved. Among his character labels, the first item is "has died once".

Iger remembers that there is a law of traversal, the traversal will not traverse the living body, and the bodies they take over after traversing are all "dead bodies", that is, bodies that have just died.

This law also applies to myself.

Oliver Evans was dead before Iger Lee's consciousness took over his body.

Oliver died of blood plague after struggling for three days.

Yes, I remember that feeling when I first woke up.

The field of vision is blood-red, the inner desire for blood cannot be suppressed, the pain in the limbs cannot be felt, and the body movements are extremely uncoordinated.

"Although the blood plague was cured, it changed your body."

Iger didn't pay much attention to this sentence at the beginning. He thought that this "change" was a visible attribute change. However, what happened just today made him connect all these details, and he fell into a nightmare. in the conjecture.

My body has actually become infected.

Oliver had just died. At this time, he crossed over and forced the infected body to work again. Afterwards, Father Locke cured himself with serum.

That tube of serum can really reverse the transformation of an infected person!

However, that tube of serum that could have saved the world was used to save himself.

For a long time, Aiger felt that there was a mysterious force controlling the fate of the whole world. It forced in the self that did not belong to this world. There must be some purpose.

Now he wants to understand, everything is clear.

This is like a scientist doing a biological experiment, adding different kinds of substances to the petri dish little by little, and then observing the changes in the microbiome.

This world is like a huge digital petri dish. After all the parameters are set, it starts to run. As a disturber, you are "thrown" in, just to see how the result will change.

From the day after waking up, Iger has been paralyzing himself, forcing himself to ignore many things that should not exist, and constantly brainwashing himself, allowing himself to rationalize them from the heart, for example, I am a time traveler, for example This is my own system, for example, the world allows the use of plug-ins.

However, today, when Nicholas casually stated a 9% infection rate, Iger finally couldn't hold back.

Except for Iger, no one knows that the real world cannot be digitized. They are all virtual people living in the digital world.

Iger squatted on the ground, crying sputteringly.

"Iger." Suddenly a gentle body came up from behind and hugged him tightly.

"Joanna." Iger asked while crying: "If this world is nothingness at all, is it worth living so desperately?"

Joanna hugged Iger tightly, and said to him gently: "Whether this world is nothingness or not, but you are real to me, a reality that surpasses everything."
