Chapter 147 South Sea Island(1/2)

[Only released by Jinjiang Literature City]

There is still a hotel room outside the apartment. Their simulated apartment has been reset to a bedroom in a large suite, and the situation is similar to that of a homestay.

The suite has not been used for a long time because the doors and windows are intact, and there are no invasive mutant creatures and plants inside for the time being. However, green vines are also hanging outside the south-facing glass window, and the balcony outside the glass sliding door is completely covered with green vegetation.

The corridor was empty, and it was very dark because there was no electricity. The ground was filled with various scattered items and garbage left by previous residents. The window at the end of the corridor was broken, and green vines climbed in, and the whole space looked quiet and dilapidated.

The elevator is no longer used, but fortunately the stairs are nearby. The family of three turned on the flashlight and carefully descended to the first floor along the stairs filled with scattered items.

This hotel is not big, with only about two or three buildings in front and behind, and the one they are in is the main building.

The main building faces south with a larger double swimming pool garden, with children's water play area and tea and drink bar on the side. But now, the leisure areas that once came and went have been covered with dense vegetation.

Youxi remembers that before the first outbreak of the plants in S City, the situation in tropical areas is generally better than that in temperate and cold zones. This is also the reason why Youli was unwilling to bring Zhao Xuefei back and said she would continue to live in the South China Sea Island.

But now it seems that the changes in animals and plants still radiate to tropical areas, and there is no place on the planet that can be spared. At most, it is the difference in time.

Youxi and the other two were in a small triangular formation. They carefully stepped on the moss-covered ground. They planned to walk through this vegetation and walked towards the beach. Then they followed the beach to look at both sides. There was no vegetation covering there, and the view was better. You can see if there were other people living around them.

The ground here is particularly soft and rotten, with thick moss mixed with layers of fallen leaves. When you step up, you feel like you are stepping on mud. The surrounding trees are surrounded by various unknown vines, like giant green nets. In addition to the sound of tides, they are also filled with various insects.

From time to time, huge seabirds circling and flying in the sky above, but because of the thick branches and leaves, they form a natural protective umbrella for the creatures under the vegetation.

There was water in the swimming pool, but it was covered with yellow and green leaves. On the inside of the tea bar next to the swimming pool, the refrigerator door was wide open, the shelves were poured, and everything that could eat and drink inside was taken away.

You Xi stepped forward and took a look, signaling You Feng and Fan Qi to continue walking out.

I had just taken two steps, but suddenly the sound of the leaves rubbing suddenly came from my ears, and there was no wind around. How could the leaves suddenly make a sound?

You Xi turned around vigilantly. At the same time, Fan Qi noticed her strangeness and slowly stopped.

Behind me is still an abandoned garden full of various plants. It is already completely bright. Because the branches and leaves above are blocked, the light cannot be completely exposed, which makes this vegetation area have various dark and dead corners.

She looked in the direction of the sound and found a strange thing on the ground. When they passed by here just now, the leaves were still dry, but now there was a wet trace, as if something was passing by here.

You Xi checked around and put the five senses to the maximum. There were subtle movements of insects in the surrounding woods, but they were not large organisms. And if they were insects, how could such a large area of ​​wet traces be caused?

"Be careful, it's a little wrong." You Xi reminded his parents and gently pulled out the blade.

Fan Qi and You Feng immediately turned around, and the three formed a back-to-back formation, and slowly moved outward in a 360-degree observation and vigilance pattern.

The road they took was on the edge of the swimming pool, which was the largest swimming pool in the garden. It was semicircular and very large, with dense fallen leaves covering the water surface, looking like a swamp.

When the three of them walked around the pool and headed towards the beach, the fallen leaves that were originally covered with the water moved gently, and a long orange-red limb quietly poked out from the edge of the pool. After moving slowly between the moss and the leaves for a few seconds, the color of the limb became exactly the same as the fallen leaves next to it.

This time, it moves lighter and slower.

You Xi's eyes moved slightly, and his steps did not slow down, but he just held the Tang sword in his hand tighter.

The long limb moved silently between the dim leaves, narrowing the distance between You Xi and the other two little by little. Suddenly, it suddenly ejected out like an arrow, and instantly rolled his legs around You Feng, who was closest to it, and pulled them hard.

You Feng fell forward, feeling a huge force coming from his legs, which could be dragged away at any time. At the critical moment, Fan Qi supported You Feng, and You Xi had already flew to his legs, grabbed him with one hand and slashed heavily at the limb with the other hand.

The soft and rotten touch came, and the limb was cut off in an instant, and the rest shrank back and retreated all the way back into the water, faster than when attacking, even You Xi was not holding it.

She reached out and pulled off the limb that wrapped around You Feng's ankle. It was a wet round strip, with no blood flowing out. She had a huge suction cup on her limb. After pulling it off, she still twisted in her hand.

Youxi:...

"Is this... an octopus?" Fan Qi helped You Feng up and came over, "So thick! It seems like a big guy!"

This is not the first time that You Feng has been raided by a creature. Although he was shocked just now, he is not that scared: "Why did the octopus come to the woods? Isn't it freshwater in the swimming pool?"

"It's mutated." You Xi estimated that this "big guy" is because there are no other large mutant animals in this dense forest except for some small insects. She looked at the swimming pool not far away and held the Tang Dao tightly again, "The Star House is going to stay here for about a month. That big octopus is a bit annoying here, and it's not safe to enter and exit. I'll clean it up first."

"Be careful." Fan Qi reminded him.

You Feng was a little worried: "Are you alone? This octopus is probably a bit outrageous!"

"It's okay, you guys are careful and keep being alert to the surroundings." You Xi stepped forward a few steps, picked up the large iron lounge chair that was overturned to the ground, and smashed it directly towards the swimming pool.

The weight of the recliner and her strength made her thump after falling into the water, causing huge splashes, but the octopus lurking in the water did not appear.

You Xi raised her eyebrows, carried a recliner and smashed it into the water. Then she rushed into the water a few steps, carried the glass counter and large freezer, and smashed it into the swimming pool one after another.

Thumb-

The entire swimming pool was upside down, and half of the water inside was splashed out. The swimming pool was not deep, and in this case, a heavy object always hit a large creature lurking in the water.

A huge round "head" emerged, and then two huge eyes. The other party seemed to be angry, and several tentacles stretched out together, relying on their length to attack You Xi's limbs, intending to directly pull the human who smashed it into pieces.

In terms of length, You Xi's arm and Tang Dao's length cannot reach the octopus' body, and the damage is limited only when attacking tentacles.

You Feng and Fan Qi were frightened by the side, but You Xi stood there without changing her face. [Air and Electric Wind Blow] appeared in her palm in an instant.

Unlocked aiming, and with two bangs, the octopus's huge and smooth body was blown open. It shook violently, and several tentacles waved together, and a large stream of black ink spewed out from the nasal cavity below.

You Xi did not dare to be too big, for fear that the octopus' ink would also mutate. He frowned and concentrated as the ink was sprayed out. In the swimming pool and under the shore, he condensed into a large piece of thin ice for one second, blocking the direction of the ink ejection. The thickness of the thin ice was limited, and it only blocked the ink for two or three seconds.

But this time was enough. You Xi had quickly retreated, grabbed You Feng and Fan Qi, and took them back a distance again. The ink fell to the ground, dyeing a large area of ​​moss leaves blackened, and a trace of blue smoke appeared in the fallen leaves, and then curled into a small piece of charred black.

The ink has indeed mutated!

Seeing that the ink was not squirting, the entire huge body crawled out of the edge of the swimming pool, and several tentacles reached out again. This time, Fan Qi and You Xi raised the [air hair dryer] together and stretched out the tentacles and exploded them one by one.

The wet huge tentacles fell to the ground, and were still bouncing, trying to wrap around their feet.

You Feng took out [High Temperature Perfume], adjusted to 2nd level, and aimed at it and sprayed directly.

There were trees around, and Youfeng was afraid of causing a fire, so he did not dare to adjust it to the third level. In addition to water, there was a layer of mucus on the surface of the octopus whiskers. It was not burned to black charcoal for the time being, but it slowly changed color and curled up.

If the three of You family were not wearing masks at this time, they could smell a strange burnt scent emitted from the air.

Most of the octopus tentacles were broken, and there was a hole in its "head", but it was still moving, and it came to them with a rage. You Xi remembered the biology class I had taken before, and aimed at the octopus' eyes.

After several shots, the originally wriggling octopus finally stopped slowly.

You Feng kicked away the burning octopus beard at his feet, stepped forward and used [high temperature perfume] on the octopus' body again. This time he didn't spray for a long time, and footsteps and vocals came from the woods in the direction of the beach.

Seeing that the octopus was so dead that it could not die again, You Feng stopped at the right time and put away the [high temperature perfume].

For a moment, the sound of footsteps stopped not far from them. This was a team of refugees who went out to find food. The whole group was young and middle-aged, and the leader was a tall woman.

They would avoid it every time they passed by this hotel because they knew that there was a large mutant octopus lurking in the garden pool. The octopus would change color, the tentacles were fast and powerful, and they would spray mutated corrosive ink. They were also very cunning. They knew that they would sneak attack in the pool, even if they cut off a few tentacles for a while, they would grow back.

Several waves of refugees nearby suffered from this octopus, so they would avoid this hotel when they went out.

But now, the air is filled with a strong burnt scent, and the difficult big octopus has become an octopus bbq?

A group of seven and eight people stared at the barbecue octopus beards that fell all over the floor, and swallowed in a bad mood.

Everyone knows that seafood is delicious. Logically speaking, they should not be short of food at the beach. Unfortunately, land creatures have mutated, and the same is true for the creatures in the sea. It is extremely dangerous to obtain food from the sea like before.

The leading woman came back to her senses and looked at the three people standing among the pile of octopus beards. Although the other party was wrapped tightly, she could still tell that it was two women and one man. There was no one else around her. She was a little shocked and a little afraid.

But whether she was leading the team or was she the first to come forward to say hello and asked which hotel the other party belongs to.

"We came from other places and were not very clear about the situation here. We were attacked by this octopus by chance, so..."

The other party was afraid of the strong combat power of You Xi and the other two, and spoke very carefully and had a very good attitude. He took the lead in talking about the situation nearby, the current situation of some people and several gathering places, saying that the nearest official shelter is also farther from the coastline, but at the same time, several official shelters are crowded. If they want to find a place to stay, it is better to go to a hotel on the other side of the beach.

The hotel is built on a cliff, where there are few mutated plants, and mutated creatures in the sea are not easy to sneak attack the refugees' residences.

You Xi chatted with the other party for a brief moment, saying that she would check the surrounding situation first before making a decision. When she took You Feng and Fan Qi to leave, a young boy in the other party couldn't help but speak, and asked them in a squint manner if they were eating these octopuses.

Youxi:…?

"Can you eat?" Fan Qi was surprised.

"Yes, except for the ink being poisonous and corrosive, mutant octopus must be non-toxic and can be eaten and tasted the same as before..."

You Xi nodded, took out a pocket and put two pieces of octopus whiskers in, and then said that the rest could not be finished, so they could do whatever they wanted.

After confirming, the other party immediately stepped forward happily to pick it up.

"Thank you, go to the cliff to find me if you need anything. The second building, my surname is Wei, and they all call me Sister Wei."

The three of You family followed the way they came and soon walked out of the vegetation area. They walked along the beach and met other teams of refugees. Everyone was very alert and looked at them from a distance, without going forward to say more questions.

The situation nearby is similar. Most of the hotels near the sea are surrounded by vines growing indiscriminately. The beaches without vegetation must be kept abreast of seabird attacks at any time.

In just one day, they couldn't find out too much. Anyway, they knew there were refugees nearby, and the number of people was not small.

Because Youxi had to travel around the world at night, the family of three returned to the original hotel until noon.

This time they entered through the hotel gate and checked along the way whether there were other large mutant creatures. Fortunately, there were few plants near the front desk of the hotel, and relatively speaking, even the mutant bugs were much less than the garden area behind.

The family of three returned from the original stairs, confirmed that no one was following, went back to the suite, locked the door, checked the windows, and then entered the star house.

There are two worlds inside and outside the star house. The air outside is humid and hot, and the temperature is much higher than that of the B&Bs in the suburbs of N City. They are even more stuffy and stuffy when wrapped in protective clothing.

The simulated apartment is a constant temperature and oxygen, and always maintains the most comfortable body feeling around 26 degrees Celsius.

After taking a shower and changing clothes, the family of three sat on the sofa in the living room and drank ice drinks and fell into a state of rottenness.

"Actually, I feel that it's okay to stay in the star house for the past month and not go out..." Fan Qi sighed long.

"Everything is OK, there is no need to do the training every day, so you can do whatever you want."

You Xi took them out just to prevent them from being too disconnected from the end of the world outside, and did not want to turn them into combat madmen. Judging from the two of them's calm performance today, it is already quite good.

The mother and daughter chatted for a few words. Compared to them, You Feng was particularly silent today.

Fan Qi and You Xi both knew what he was thinking. When Sister Wei talked about the nearby situation before, You Feng asked her if the refugees were all travelers who originally lived in the hotel area.
