Chapter 762 The Real Masterpiece

(There is a lot of plot content, students who don't care can consider skipping)

Time turned to winter.

The first thing that appears on the screen is a rabbit, Ellie hunting with a bow and arrow.

From Ellie's mental state, players can infer that Joel is still alive, but has lost the ability to move, otherwise Ellie would not go out hunting alone.

While chasing a deer, Ellie met two passers-by. While waiting for the passers-by to go back to get the medicine, Ellie and passersby were attacked by zombies.

When Ellie and the zombies were fighting, the players discovered that the little Loli who only knew how to shout 666 behind Joel had grown into a qualified warrior, stealth, assassination, bow and arrow, shooting, all abilities have been fully Unlocked, it can be seen that in the past few months, Ellie has fought many difficult battles to take care of Joel.

After all the zombies were eliminated, just when the players thought it was safe, the plot took another turn.

This wretched uncle who fought side by side with Ellie turned out to be the leader of the hunters, and the hunters who Joel and Ellie had killed in the nearby town were all his companions.

However, the wretched uncle looked quite enlightened, gave Ellie antibiotics and let her go.

But in fact, if the player has paid attention to the previous plot and mentioned the new leader when the hunters in that town were chatting, his ferocity even aroused the dissatisfaction of the hunters, and even some hunters would rather leave than I am willing to work with him, which shows that this is a deeply hidden villain.

(Easter eggs here: Uncle Wretched and Nathan use the same actor.)

Ellie returned to the hideout, Joel was still lying on the ground in a coma, Ellie got antibiotics to save him.

It was freezing cold, and Joel was unconscious under the blanket, Ellie used her backpack as a pillow and lay beside him, taking good care of him.

But in the early morning, those hunters actually searched here, and Ellie decided to divert these hunters away.

Although many hunters were dealt with, Ellie was still captured by the leader of the hunters.

Awakening from the prison, Ellie found that the hunters outside were dissecting living people, apparently to feed on human flesh.

The leader wanted to let Ellie stay, but Ellie was unmoved, and the leader became angry and decided to chop Ellie into Ellie sauce.

At this moment, Joel, who was injected with antibiotics, woke up.

...

Zhao Lei was manipulating Joel, and he was crying with joy, you finally woke up!

Apparently, Ellie has been caught, and now only Joel arrives in time to save her. Zhao Lei didn't search for the supplies in the room, and almost immediately rushed out of the room to look for Ellie's trace.

To kill the hunter who was searching for him in the town, Joel tied up two survivors and tortured them to ask Ellie's whereabouts. This brutal torture scene not only did not make Zhao Lei feel cruel, but made him feel very relieved!

However, the story after that did not become a cliché "Joel saves Ellie". Ellie escaped very tactfully. The story at this time was carried out on two lines. In the blizzard, Ellie escaped, Searching for a way out in the town; and Joel also came to the town, searching for Ellie's trail.

In the small town restaurant, Ellie and the perverted uncle had an extremely difficult boss battle. Ellie could only sneak in the scene, stabbed with a knife, and had to stab three times.

Zhao Lei died here several times, but when the final stab came out, the screen switched to Joel again.

When Joel arrived in the town, the reinforcements of the enemy had arrived and were searching the whole town. Zhao Lei had no intention of entanglement with these people, but searched for Ellie's location in the town.

Ellie finally killed the perverted hunter leader and chopped his head to pieces with a machete almost in a vengeance. At this time, Joel finally arrived, and Ellie wept in Joel's arms.

In the low guitar sound, everything was calm, and Zhao Lei realized at this time that his back was soaked with sweat.

...

So far, the whole plot has actually come to the climax, the players have experienced a lot, and the emotions of Joel and Ellie have also changed.

From the indifference at the beginning, to the gradual trust later, to now, the two have become inseparable.

When Joel was seriously injured, Ellie did not leave him behind, but took care of him with all her might, and made Joel treat her as his own daughter. The dialogue between the two people also obviously increased. Joel said that when all this is over, he will teach Ellie to play the guitar. It can be seen that at this time, Joel has regarded Ellie as a sustenance in the end of the world. family.

At this time, the players have only one goal left, which is to send Ellie to Firefly and develop a vaccine against the virus.

Finally arrived at the destination hospital. The scene at this time was no longer a snowstorm. It can be seen that the two of them walked for a very long time, and it took a whole year to cross the United States.

In the ruins of the city, there are actually many animals. A giraffe is downstairs, sticking its head upstairs to graze. Joel and Ellie walked over and stroked the soft fur on the giraffe's neck.

The giraffe is eating grass, looking at the camera with big watery eyes, and behind it is a tall building with lush green grass.

The cute giraffe seemed to have awakened Ellie's girlish heart, and began to jump forward, chasing after the giraffe.

This is a very warm scene. Although it is very short, it left a very deep impression on Zhao Lei's heart. In the previous zombie themes, the apocalyptic scenes seemed to be all gray and black, and the almost rotten zombies brought real nightmares and apocalypse. But in "The Last of Us", because the virus is set as a Cordyceps fungus and does not pose a threat to plants and animals, twenty years after the outbreak of the virus, nature and animals have instead regained human territory. .

This tender scene is a very critical female perspective, casting a layer of humanity on The Last of Us. There are no longer only hormones and killing, no longer only the cruelty and coldness of the last days, but also a lot of sunshine and warmth.

With the melodious and soothing melody, Zhao Lei has a feeling that after so many painful battles before, the story will finally usher in a happy ending.

Just like the land in front of me, green grass, trees, giraffes.

At this point, Joel had already thought of quitting, and he suggested that the journey could be ended here. But Ellie decided to keep going. After all, after so much, the goal of saving all mankind is about to be achieved.

The players at this time are also in such an extremely tangled state of mind, knowing that this is about to end, but they do not want to end like this.

The two of them skillfully partnered with each other, passed through the zombie-infested city, and experienced many dangers. Finally, they found the base of Firefly.

When Joel woke up, Marlene was beside him, lamenting that they could have walked such a long distance.

Joel said: "Because of her presence, she worked so hard to get here, maybe this is fate."

Joel wants to meet Ellie, but Marlene tells Joel the truth at this time.

Cordyceps mutated in Ellie's body, so Ellie was immune to the virus. Doctors had to remove the Cordyceps fungus that had spread to Ellie's entire brain in order to reverse engineer a vaccine.

Reality finally tore off the veil of warmth, and Joel was faced with a dilemma, either let Ellie die and develop a vaccine, or rescue Ellie and put the safety of all mankind behind.

After all, this is the only example of immunity to viruses, and it is very likely that humans will never find the next person who is as immune to viruses as Ellie.

And Joel chose the latter without hesitation.

Taking a gun, asking questions, and killing a bloody path, Zhao Lei has never felt so happy. He doesn't care about the end of the world or virus vaccines now. He just wants to save Ellie and get out of here.

For Joel, Zhao Lei feels the same way, because in this long journey, the two have experienced so much together, and they have acquired a kind of emotion that is even more inseparable than family love.

Joel has experienced the pain of losing his daughter, so he knows exactly what Ellie's death will mean to him, which is probably more painful than the end of the world. So, he didn't have any hesitation, he could kill everyone for Ellie.

On the way to the top floor, Joel found two recordings, one was a doctor's recording, the doctor had confirmed that Ellie was in an unprecedented situation, and even looked forward to the development of a vaccine, saving the world, and all suffering being ended. tomorrow. The other is Marlene's recording. As the leader of Firefly, she is also very entangled, but finally agrees with the doctor's suggestion. Moreover, when Joel arrived, Firefly's soldiers proposed to kill Joel, and it was Marlene who rescued Joel.

Finally arrived at the operating room, Joel carried Ellie all the way out of Firefly's base.

The familiar melody sounded again, Zhao Lei's eyes were wet, and he seemed to see Joel and Ellie leaning on each other in the apocalyptic scene.

What is the definition of the end times? The outbreak of a virus and the destruction of civilization may be the end of the world, but for Joel now, it is the real end of the world if Ellie dies.

Kill Marlene and leave Firefly.

In the leaving car, Ellie woke up. They plan to go back to Tommy's town to continue their lives. Joel told a white lie, telling her that Firefly has many people who are immune to the virus, but there is nothing they can do, they have given up on vaccine development.

The last perspective, back to Ellie's body.

Joel talks about his dead daughter, Sarah, and thinks Ellie and Sarah will definitely be good friends.

In the final scene, Ellie talks about her friends, Tess, and Sam, who all died of the infection, while Ellie survived. Obviously, if Ellie knew her own death could end it, she would most likely choose to sacrifice herself.

Ellie makes Joel swear everything he says is true.

Joel looked into Ellie's eyes and said seriously, "I swear."

...

...

At this point, the game is over.

Zhao Lei still felt a little short of breath, and his heart was pounding.

It was the first time that he had this strange feeling after playing the whole game.

Looking at the list of developers of the entire game, Zhao Lei knew that this story had come to an end, but there were too many things to reflect on.

Every character and every plot seems to have its own deep meaning, but obviously, this is a controversial story. Everyone has their own judgments and their own endings in their hearts.

"The Last of Us" does not give players the opportunity to choose the ending, nor does it make the very popular "multi-ending story", it just tells a good story like a movie, and the characters in the story are each sticking to their own creed.

Zhao Lei felt that he had too many things to say in his heart, but there was no way to start.

He knew that The Last of Us would be a true masterpiece.
