"jingle-"

Every building in District E rang loudly, and the door opened and closed one after another in the corridor, which reminded the residents of District E that it was time for labor. Chen Lian's labor time is deducted with points, and she does not need to participate in labor.

Within five minutes, the noisy running sound faded away.

Chen Lian looked at Ye Qing: "If you don't have enough points, you don't need to help me deduct working time."

Ye Qing: "Enough, just do more tasks."

At this time, someone knocked on the door: "403, is Chen Lian there?"

Chen Lian opened the door, and a burly man stood at the door. He glanced at Chen Lian according to the photos and the list: "Next week, you need to participate in labor time again."

"I will deduct her labor hours with points."

Seeing Ye Qing, He Bin smiled and said, "Ye Qing can't do it. If Chen Chi is still there, she has two B-level abilities guaranteed by her, so she can be exempted from labor, but now Chen Chi is gone—"

Ye Qing's face was expressionless.

He Bin said: "Chen Lian must participate in labor, there is no point deduction, please abide by the rules of protecting the base."

Ye Qing: "There was no such rule before."

He Bin patted the list board in his hand and raised his eyebrows lightly: "Newly added."

"In addition, I forgot to remind you that Chen Lian must also participate in the cleaning activities now, and there will be no more points deduction."

The door slammed shut.

Chen Lian carefully observed Ye Qing's expression, Ye Qing's expression was not good, but she still cared about her cowardly mother-in-law: "It's okay, I will find someone to help you."

In fact, Ye Qing was overwhelmed. Even if there was no one to help, Chen Lian would at least be unscathed during the first-level cleaning campaign in District E.

The time will soon come to the cleaning campaign in Zone E this week, a group of 30—

The cleaning area has been cleaned by higher-level people, and now it is only necessary to clean the remaining dried shrimps and carry out sanitation sweeping, in order to receive waves of victims—victims from other places join the protection base.

Chen Lian lined up in the team. This team was all ordinary people, old and weak. At first glance, the most energetic girl was a girl who weighed less than 100 jin. Before she set off, there were many people in the team who were trembling.

Liu Jiadong was in his fifties. Compared to Chen Lian, who was also in his fifties but was sluggish, he looked more energetic.

"Are you Chen Lian, Ye Qing asked me to protect you."

When Ye Qing, the power user in area B, approached him and promised to provide two first-level corpse crystals, Liu Jiadong couldn't wait to agree. He had cleaned area E seven times and was able to get out of it every time.

"Take it, in case you are unlucky enough to encounter a zombie and stab it between the eyebrows."

A short knife was thrown into Chen Lian's hand, "That's it? There's no gun or anything like that—"

"Guns are not for residents of District E. The rules of the protection base are there. Although you are Ye Qing's mother-in-law, you can't ignore everything. After all, this is a protection base where everyone is equal."

Liu Jiadong said Nunuzui. Most of the people in front were elderly people and children. Any place in a safe area would respect the old and love the young, and here they had to fight like everyone else.

"As for why it can't be used, because there's no such thing, how can there be so many guns?"

Liu Jiadong doesn't seem to be under much pressure, and he still has the energy to joke.

Chen Ke quietly lined up in the queue. Compared with other people's fears, she was fearless and inexplicably felt like there was a leader, queuing up for the spring outing.

Day trip to the cleaning area.

The iron door was pulled open, and the group walked out of the protection base.

The protection base is a medical university established in the suburbs, and out of the university campus, it is a very ordinary residential building and commodity street, but now the residential building and commodity street are empty, no one is on the road, and there is an unpleasant smell in the air.

A truck slowly drove towards them, and the rough man glanced at the team leader: "Get in the car."

Thirty people sat in the back seat of the truck. Chen Lian took a closer look. This pickup was originally owned by a transportation company. The side door also said "Old Appliances Recycling", but now there are thirty people sitting in the open air.

Chen Lian sat in the innermost position and said nothing. She didn't speak, but someone came looking for her, "Auntie, thank you last week, if you hadn't stood in front of me, I would have been caught, and my physique is very poor..."

The girl who was sitting on tiptoe was about 20 years old, the one who was blocking the sword by Chen Lian. Chen Lian said lightly, "It's okay."

The girl suddenly became interested, "It's the second time I've participated in the cleaning campaign in District E. Auntie, how many times is it for you?"

"the second time."

Ji Xiaofang's eyes widened in surprise: "Auntie we are the same, I was a student of the medical university here, how about you?"

"I also live near here." The police force is not far from the Medical University. It was almost the first time the apocalypse broke out. Chen Chi was notified to call uninfected people for absolute isolation, and those with absolute medical equipment and enough buildings , occupying 230 hectares, about 3000 mu of medical university has become the best candidate.

"There are so many students in your medical university. You have all gone back for the summer vacation. Have you not had any contact now? Did they find a way to come here?"

The end of the world broke out during the summer vacation, and at this time, college students should also be in their hometowns.

Ji Xiaofang chuckled: "Our medical university here only recruits local students. Because my grades are too low, I can only enter this university."

"As for other people who got into good schools - there should be bases like ours everywhere."

"Are you two really going to travel? Are you joking?"

Liu Jiadong shook his head, "The last time you were bitten was just luck. If you are bitten by a second-level zombie, you will be directly infected—"

Ji Xiaofang was curious: "Isn't there no zombies higher than the first level in the cleaning area?"

"No one can guarantee it. This area has been cleaned a second time. Isn't that thing still popping up?" Liu Jiadong added knowledge to them. It turned out that in the year after the base was built, every piece of qualified The area must be cleaned at least five times to ensure that no virus is attached to even a piece of flowers and plants, so as to expand the territory and live in people.

"Small animals will mutate, and a cat may be a first-class zombie."

Ji Xiaofang: "First-level zombies can't infect people?"

Liu Jiadong smiled meaningfully at her: "It won't infect people, but if you get bitten, you will die."

Ji Xiaofang suddenly shivered.

It is true that the area cleaned by the high-level ability user is very quiet, and there are dragged battle residues on the ground, like black asphalt and blood that has been put on the ground for many days.

Everyone carries a cleaning bucket on their backs and sprays disinfectant water. Disinfectant water is a liquid and body developed by the research institute of the protection base that can inhibit the spread of the virus.

They are like the cleaners of abandoned cities, responsible for cleaning up cities that have been looted by zombies.

Such a task is not too difficult, Chen Lian thought so after spraying for 15 minutes, but Liu Jiadong did not seem to relax at all. They were about to open the door of the residential building. Chen Lian subconsciously put her hand on the door handle, but Liu Jiadong changed positions with her and stood in front of her.

The two stood behind the door.

As soon as the door opened, nothing rushed out to give them a bite.

Chen Lian's heart suddenly became tense, the alarm clock in the room kept ringing, it was twelve o'clock noon.

"Why are you so afraid, there's nothing in it, I've cleaned it all."

Ji Xiaofang opened the door from the next room. She was very puzzled when she saw that the two were hiding at the door like a formidable enemy. "What are you afraid of after having been cleared by high-level people?"

She walked over briskly, with a cowardly smile at the elderly, and then casually looked into the room where Liu Jiadong had opened the door, her pupils suddenly dilated—

Something that couldn't tell if it was a cat or something rotting slammed into her face, the rotting thing had unusually sharp teeth and blood on its gums—

It moved so fast that no one could react in time. Half of Ji Xiaofang's head was torn off, and the sound of bone shattering and liquid squirting occurred at the same time.

"Snapped."

Chen Ke's eyes widened, her heartbeat became louder and louder like a drum.

The rotten thing was eaten with relish, while Ji Xiaofang's other eye remained on half of his face, maintaining a shocked expression.

The body that had lost its life slammed to the ground.

The rotten thing was very quiet when it was eating. It licked the red liquid on the ground. Chen Lian was so shocked that her whole body trembled and she didn't even dare to breathe, but Liu Jiadong suddenly stepped forward and pulled out a short knife and inserted it straight into the rotten thing's head.

The rotting creature was unaware of his approach, paused for a moment, and then fell down.

Liu Jiadong gasped heavily, his hand wearing the glove issued by the base, reached into the brain of the rotten thing, frowned for a while, and then took out a shiny yellow thing.

"Look, Corpse Crystal."

Liu Jiadong threw the yellow solid substance into the sanitary bag, and sneered: "I'm lucky, I took a corpse crystal of a first-class zombie in the first half hour. Those people in the advanced area probably started writing typos in elementary school and didn't check them. With careless habits, our lives are not as precious as theirs, so be careful."

After he finished speaking, he glanced at Chen Lian who didn't say a word:

"Your daughter-in-law said that you were very timid. I didn't expect you to behave well. You didn't scream and cause me trouble."

If it were Chen Lian, she would definitely be a screaming player, but Chen Ke is the type who is more afraid and unable to speak.

She thought that this was the first time she knew exactly what the end times were, not the one-sided frenzy, rampage, and bloodshed in modern novels.

"These things have a particularly poor sensory system when they absorb energy, so it's the best to strike while they're at that time, but that doesn't seem to be the case with the second level. I haven't encountered it."

Liu Jiadong walked in through the door cautiously, with Chen Lian following behind. They disinfected the room with disinfectant. Except for the accumulation of dust, it still retained the appearance of the apocalypse a year ago.

It took them an hour to clean the four rooms in a row, which is a turtle speed.

But fortunately, I never encountered a first-level zombie. The weak zombie I encountered was actually a slow-moving mass of rot, like a paramecia in the zombie world, a single-celled creature.

Chen Lian took a short knife and inserted it into the head of the weak zombie without any difficulty, and solved it.

The cleaning time was four hours, and they had to walk two floors. Originally they were with Ji Xiaofang, but now Ji Xiaofang is lying in the corridor on the second floor.

No wonder except for a few of them, the atmosphere was extremely solemn.

Chen Lian now seems to have an invisible big stone in her heart. She just wants to go back now, immediately, but only half of the task has been completed. She followed Liu Jiadong honestly, but secretly released her skills.

The card she draws with her points - petrification (evolvable).

This skill lasts for ten seconds and has a cooldown of three seconds. In these ten seconds, it can become a boulder, extremely hard, and nothing can cause it to cause a little wound, not even the teeth of a hydra.

Chen Lian cherished her life, she kept releasing petrification skills to make her body as hard as a stone except for the three seconds in the gap.

Fortunately, the cleaning of the next two floors was a near miss, and basically all weak zombies appeared, maybe hiding on the ceiling, or maybe opening the window and hanging a tail.

After several similar cardiac arrests, Chen Lian has learned to observe every turbulent corner.

She felt herself getting suspicious and her ears starting to work.

She followed Liu Jiadong downstairs.

There were already two or three people in the open space. Their expressions were like the rest of their lives. The leader of the team saw that only Liu Jiadong and Chen Lian had returned from Building A, but their brows moved. Liu Jiadong reported the situation to him, but the team leader calmly accepted the result. .

Just as the members of the team were gradually returning, there was suddenly a very sharp cry from the upper floors of the b building. Everyone looked up and saw a figure fell from the fifth floor, and the shadow followed behind him.

"Run!"

I don't know who shouted, the crowd scattered, "Bang-" The leader raised his head to shoot, but he couldn't aim his head, the shadow fell on the ground, and the next second he jumped into the crowd.

Chen Lian stumbled over someone and suddenly fell on the person in front of her. A dark shadow shrouded her head. She subconsciously gathered the petrification technique.

The black shadow bit her shoulder but only heard the sound of the stone being slid away and violently colliding with her teeth—

"boom-"

Gunshots sounded, and the shadow fell to the ground.

Before Chen Lian could react, she saw tears of gratitude flow from the eyes of the old lady lying under her, "Chen Lian, you saved my life."

Liu Jiadong saw the black shadow flying towards the crowd, and when Chen Lian deliberately stood in front of them, he was about to swear.

His heart was beating so fast that he spit out a mouthful and pulled Chen Lian up from the ground: "Are you **** dying? Are you going to save others at this time? Damn it!"

There was a sparse applause, some people applauded, while others looked at her with complicated expressions, as if they were looking at a Virgin who took her own life as her life.

The leader walked over slowly, and he stared at Chen Lian condescendingly: "You were obviously bitten just now, why didn't you get hurt?"
