As the Lunar New Year begins, the weather begins to warm up, and the sun, which has not appeared much throughout the winter, began to frequently appear in the sky above our heads.

Although the sunlight at this time cannot bring too much warmth due to the irradiation angle, the howling north wind has only stopped, and the snow in the four fields has slowly melted.

In various survivor settlements, teams of evolutionists have begun to go out to hunt, hoping to have a good harvest in the new year and live a better life than before.

A place about 600 kilometers southeast of Houtu City, there is a small survivor settlement called Chenshan City. This settlement city is built on the mountain with a population of less than 100,000 people.

In Chenshan City, which has less than 100,000 people, the proportion of evolvers is about two-thirds. The highest-level evolver is only a sixth level, and the other backbone is only a third and fourth level cultivation.

Since the entire city is built on the mountain and has insufficient population strength, most of the survivors of Chenshan City rely on going out to hunt to obtain necessary survival supplies. There is very little land that can be cultivated around it and is susceptible to zombies and monsters.

Although it was early spring and the weather was still extremely cold, in Chenshan City, teams of evolutionists had left their settlements one after another and set out towards the surrounding mountains or zombies to hunt for necessary living supplies.

Niu Xiaotie is a third-level evolver in Chenshan City. He is nearly forty years old. When the end of the world came, his family was unfortunately killed. Now there is only one lonely person left, and his life is not too big.

If a third-level evolver only needs to consider his own survival, it is still easy to survive if he hunts some low-level monsters around the settlement, or hunts some low-level zombies on the edge of the zombie concentration.

However, Niu Xiaotie now only felt a heavy burden on his shoulders.

In the past New Year Festival, Niu Xiaotie fell in love with a widow with two children in Chenshan City, and has begun to live with the widow.

That widow is just an ordinary person's qualification. She also has to take care of two children. You can imagine how difficult life is. It is also a blessing to be able to get together with an evolver like Niu Xiaotie.

I suddenly had three more mouths to eat, and I spent all my savings in less than a winter. Now that I don’t go out to hunt, I will soon have no next meal.

Niu Xiaotie had no complaints about this. He treated the widow even better than he did with his wife and children, and he felt heartbroken.

After more than a year and nearly two years of life in the apocalyptic world, Niu Xiaotie deeply understood that some things are more important than life. For these things, sometimes you can give up your life completely.

Today, compared with the previous few days, the sky was particularly clear and the temperature seemed to have increased significantly. There were twice as many evolvers who went out to hunt in Chenshan City than before.

Niu Xiaotie has always been an honest person who doesn’t talk much. So he has no friends in this new world after the end of the world. He is almost alone every time he goes out to hunt. This time is no exception.

However, compared to every hunt in the past, Niu Xiaotie was worried about this time. He would cherish his life more and prevent him from easily withering under the attacks of zombies and monsters.

So, Niu Xiaotie decided not to hunt monsters in the mountains this time.

After a cold winter, most of the monsters who started going out must have been hungry for a winter, which is more difficult to deal with than usual. Niu Xiaotie didn't want to encounter any accidents.

In comparison, it is a little easier to hunt zombies in the ruins of various cities at this time.

Although it is early spring, the temperature is still below zero. Most zombies have not yet recovered their usual ability to move. They are stiff like mummies, and it should be much less difficult to hunt.

Although the zombie level has made great progress now and often moves together, it is not very difficult to find some lonely guys, just a little patience is required.

Niu Xiaotie has never lacked patience.

Before leaving, amid the widow's endless advice, Niu Xiaotie finally checked his equipment, hugged the widow and kissed her deeply, shouted "Wait for me to come back", and then walked out the door without looking back.

A third-level evolver is used to moving alone, so you can imagine how simple Niu Xiaotie's equipment is.

The weapon is just a pretty good alloy knife. Although it is not considered a shabby, it definitely has nothing to do with high-end ones. A leather armor is sewn with third-level mutated cowhide, which looks extremely depressed. Since it has not been made with nitrogen, its defense is not very outstanding, and it can only resist the attacks of the second-level monster's minions.

Such a piece of equipment is worth less than a second-level yellow crystal. In the eyes of some tall, rich and handsome men, it is simply not even considered garbage, but it is the tool for the four of Niu Xiaotie's family to make a living.

Since he decided to hunt zombies, Niu Xiaotie did not set out towards the mountains and fields like other evolved people, but chose a road to go south and went directly to the ruins of a large city to the south.

There are almost millions of zombies in the ruins of that large city. It is said that the highest level zombies have reached the ninth level, and most ordinary zombies have reached the first level or above, which is simply the hell of the evolvers. There have never been many evolvers who dare to enter.

The reason why Niu Xiaotie dared to come here is because there is a small county town next to the ruins of this large city, with almost 100,000 zombies in it, and there are basically no higher-level zombies. As long as he is careful and does not go deeper, there will be no danger.

Of course, not having too much danger means not having much gain.

After walking on the muddy road for almost an hour, Niu Xiaotie arrived at the abandoned small county town. There were no other evolvers here. Various broken buildings filled the eyes, and messy abandoned cars were everywhere, with a thin layer of snow on the roof.

Holding the alloy knife tightly in his hand, Niu Xiaotie slowed down and began to look at the surrounding environment vigilantly.

Nowadays, most zombies have completed the advancement compared to a year ago. Few can see zombies without level level. Even first-level zombies are no longer mainstream. Even this small county town is probably already wandering around with large zombies above level three.

With Niu Xiaotie's current strength, he can only barely deal with a third-level zombie, and he still has the blessing of the cold weather today. Otherwise, in the warm environment, a third-level zombie would definitely chase him and run away.

He carefully sneaked into the ruins of this small county town. Niu Xiaotie did not dare to be distracted at all. He truly listened to all directions and looked around.

Perhaps because the weather is still relatively cold, after turning two streets, Niu Xiaotie didn't find anything, and his luck was really not good.

However, Niu Xiaotie will not regret the direction he chose this time. He must go out to hunt while trying to be as safe as possible. The most suitable place for the single-handed Niu Xiaotie is the ruins of these city with a small number of zombies.

Here, if you accidentally encounter a large group of zombies, you will basically have hope of escaping; and if you are targeted by high-level monsters in the wild, Niu Xiaotie will never be able to escape the monster's pursuit even if he has two more legs.

"Damn, you must have gained something today!"

Niu Xiaotie spitted and threw his eyes deeper into the ruins of the county town. Since no zombies were found outside, he could only take the risk to go deeper. It would be impossible to go back empty-handed.

After passing through another street, Niu Xiaotie finally found the traces of the zombies.

However, Niu Xiaotie's face was pale, and a layer of thin beads of sweat oozed out from his forehead, and then it flowed down little by little. His pupils suddenly contracted, and his breathing became heavy unconsciously.

On the former main street of this county town, the wide space was densely filled with zombies of all sizes. I don’t know how many of them were. Although they were frozen as hard as mummies by the still cold weather, they still brought great fear to people.

Niu Xiaotie's legs trembled and almost wanted to turn around and leave. He was beaten to death and never came to this place again.

He was sure that some changes had occurred in these zombies so that they would all be concentrated on this wide street, like gathered soldiers, preparing to launch a large-scale battle.

Among these zombies, there are obviously several large and small circles according to their level. In the alleys further away, there are still scattered zombies constantly joining them.

Tens of thousands of zombies crowded here, even flattening a large row of low buildings, turning many abandoned cars on the street into discus.

"Damn, what exactly happened between these zombies? How could this happen?"

Niu Xiaotie's legs moved quietly backwards. At this moment, he had only one thought, that was, to leave here quickly and not to alarm the zombies gathering inside, otherwise he would have no hope of escaping in the face of the pursuit of tens of thousands of zombies.

He moved almost slowly, sweating on Niu Xiaotie's head slowly left the central area of ​​the abandoned county town, and after leaving the zombie community for hundreds of meters, he accelerated his pace and ran quickly.

At this time, Niu Xiaotie had only one thought:
Chapter completed!
