LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 012
A Line
For the first time, Wang Cheng felt that time passed so slowly.
Ten seconds feel like a year.
Wang Cheng didn’t want to give up. He had retreated to a corner and tried his best to avoid it.
The huge mutant’s claws slammed into the wall behind it, leaving a deep and terrifying ravine on the wall.
Five seconds passed.
But in this round of evasion, Wang Cheng had no way to avoid it. He was in a blind spot. He raised his head and saw the four-petaled head of the monster in front of him pressing down from the top of his head. It opened its bloody mouth and was about to kill Wang Cheng’s body in one bite. Torn brain.
There were three seconds left…
Wang Cheng’s heart felt colder than ever.
Dead…
The grenade was too late…
However…
“Ahhhhh…” At this moment, Xu Xinghai roared from one side. He and Zhang Chao worked together to move out a triple-packed dormitory iron cabinet from 705. It was filled with things and was extremely heavy. The two of them worked together, with bulging veins, to push it out with all its strength and hit the huge monster.
With a howl, the huge monster fell to the ground, but its body was pulsating, and it was gradually opening the iron cabinet. Under its sharp claws, the iron cabinet was torn to pieces – this iron cabinet was completely torn apart. Can’t resist it for long.
But the Wangcheng won the last few seconds.
He rolled out, threw the grenade directly at the giant mutant in the darkness, and roared: “Get down!”
A huge flame rose.
With a loud noise, the iron cabinet flipped up and was fried to a crisp. Below, the upper body of the mutant was shattered, and its terrifying four-petal head turned into blood flowing on the ground.
A fragment landed not far from Wang Cheng’s head.
The royal city was overturned by the air wave, and he realized that he had underestimated the power of the grenade. If the grenade hadn’t been thrown under the mutated body and buffered by the iron cabinet, he would probably have been blown to pieces. .
Despite this, Wang Cheng also had some ringing in his ears. He turned around and saw Xu Xinghai and Zhang Chao, who had also heard Wang Cheng’s reminder and climbed down in time. Xu Xinghai had no injuries on his body. He was just gray and gray. He opened his mouth and said something to Wang Cheng. Wang Cheng shook his head. He shook his head and couldn’t hear clearly, but judging from the shape of his mouth, he seemed to be saying, “You actually have a grenade.”
Wang Cheng didn’t know whether to laugh or what to say. At this critical moment, if it hadn’t been for Xu Xinghai and the others, Wang Cheng might have confessed.
Wang Cheng once thought that the two of them had run away when they saw the huge giant mutant, but they didn’t.
The tinnitus gradually got better. Strangely, the tinnitus did not affect the system prompts. The system prompts informed Wang Cheng that the monster he had just killed had actually provided him with ten units of energy points!
It seems that powerful high-energy creatures can provide more energy points.
A grenade.
Ten energy points, not a loss.
He grabbed the pistol, stood up from his position, and walked towards the corner of the stairs step by step.
Li Jie was there. He was covered in blood. One of his legs had been stepped on by the giant mutant. The flesh and bones were all broken into pieces. They were stuck together with the meat, like a puddle of minced meat dumpling stuffing.
Wang Cheng shook his head and came to him step by step, holding a gun in one hand and a gun in the other.
Li Jie looked up at him with a dazed look of disbelief on his face: “How is it possible? How can you survive this? Grenade… Where did you get the grenade? I’m going to report you. You actually have it?” The gun has a grenade, you are dead… You should be dead… No, save me, Wang Cheng, save me, we are good brothers on the same floor, if you save me, I know you are auspicious… I…”
“Bang.”
Li Jie’s voice suddenly stopped.
A blood hole appeared on his forehead, and blood gurgled out.
He looked at Wangcheng in disbelief.

Wang Cheng slowly lowered the muzzle of the gun. His hand holding the gun was shaking slightly. He didn’t know whether it was due to the impact of the battle just now or because… this was his first time to kill someone.
Wang Cheng thought about using a knife.
But he didn’t have the guts to do it, so he still used the gun, wasting a precious bullet.
It’s considered tuition.
This was the first living person he had killed.
But he knew that the end was imminent, and this was by no means the last person.
If you don’t kill Li Jie, how can you save him? Waiting for him to harm me again?
Wang Cheng even came up with a crazy idea that even he felt was cruel and selfish: If he had killed Wu Jiadong and others early on, maybe he would not be in danger, because if they died, they would not have the chance to kill this terrifying alien. The variant leads to the seventh floor.
This thought shocked Wang Cheng, and he reminded himself in his heart that he must not get lost.
In the apocalypse, one can kill to keep oneself alive, but there should be a bottom line for being a human being. What should not be done and what can be done should be clearly defined. Otherwise, even if he survives, he may not be called a human being.
At this time, Wang Cheng turned his head and saw Xu Xinghai helping Zhang Chao stand up and looking at him blankly.
After a moment, Xu Xinghai said softly: “Beautiful, Wangcheng, we must survive. If anyone else wants to do something to us, we will do it!” There were still exploding
sparks on the ground.
Wang Cheng didn’t know what to say. At this moment, he heard shrill roars coming from downstairs and upstairs. The mutants in the dormitory building were alerted and roared toward the seventh floor.
Everyone changed their colors and ignored cleaning the battlefield. They retreated to 703 at the end of the corridor on the left. Before closing the bedroom door, Wang Cheng saw densely packed mutants gathering at the stairway of the seventh floor, stacked on top of each other, with sharp claws and split heads. There were more than twenty swaying beasts, biting the corpses of dead humans and mutants crazily, like a scene from hell.
The seventh floor was completely quiet.
Everyone needed to rest. In the second half of the night, the sound of gunfire at the end of the city gradually became more intense. Wang Cheng saw a rescue helicopter flying past in the distance. However, before it flew very far, it was surrounded by a ball of fire in the dark sky. A large blood-red shadow hit, and no one could see clearly what it was. The helicopter disintegrated in the middle and exploded in mid-air. In the dazzling firelight, only an eagle-like sparrow could be seen, but there were two adult-sized ones. The huge monster flapped its wings and disappeared into the night.
Zhang Chao said in a trembling voice: “Are not just people mutated? What happened to this world?”
This is also the answer Wang Cheng wants to know.
After a night’s rest, when the sky lit up, everyone had recovered a little. Wang Cheng did not hold anything back and shared the food he purchased from the supermarket with Xu Xinghai and Zhang Chao to enjoy together. In the battle at the stairway, if it weren’t for Xu Xinghai and Zhang Chao, Wang Cheng might really have died. However, Xu Xinghai and Zhang Chao actually had time to escape at that time. The huge mutant was attracted by Wang Cheng and might not have noticed them. By hiding, they can survive first and then find a chance to escape.
But they chose to give it a try. If Wang Cheng didn’t kill the giant mutant, they would die too.
Wang Cheng was also moved in his heart. You have no reservations about me, and neither do I. Of course, Wang Cheng will not give up on due vigilance.
He had been thinking about it for the rest of last night.
The doomsday is coming, the old system collapses, and the civilization and laws of the past are all gone. However, Wang Cheng does not want to become a lunatic and a thug in the doomsday, so he draws a line for himself.
People kill me, I kill people, people help me, I help people.
You can do anything necessary to survive and stay alive, but violence and animal behavior that have nothing to do with these two things will never cross the line.
Having killed people and monsters, Wang Cheng set this line in his heart, and felt that everything in front of him became clearer, and he became more and more aware of what he should do and what he should do.
He is confident that he can survive this cruel apocalypse!
All three of them expended a lot of energy and ate a lot of food.
At this time, Xu Xinghai looked at Wang Cheng: “What should we do next?”
Wang Cheng narrowed his eyes and said very proudly: “Hunt the mutants! Clear the entire dormitory building!”
The giant mutant on the second floor is dead. There should be only ordinary mutants left in this dormitory building. As long as we deal with them properly, all the mutants on this floor will be the energy points of the royal city!
The one hundred energy required to upgrade a level 1 battleship is right in front of you!
