Chapter 383 Unknown Creatures

"Yanshi, a good name." Luo Ren praised, and then ordered: "Remember, when the two city lords ask about our whereabouts, tell them that we are going out to do something and will be back soon. Tell them to lead all the soldiers out of the city and wait for me five or six kilometers to the northeast."

Yanshi stood at attention and replied: "I remember it!"

Luo Ren nodded, turned around and waved to Qing'e, saying: "Let's go."

Qing'e quickly climbed the city wall, and jumped down from the seven or eight meters high city with Luo Ren. After landing safely, they ran wildly towards the south.

At the speed, the distance of more than 20 kilometers only took about 20 minutes, which was faster than world-class marathon athletes. This was deliberately moving at a constant speed to save energy, otherwise the time would be even shorter.

At this time, Luo Ren and Qing'e were on the top of a hill. Looking down, it was an abandoned small county surrounded by hills. They had excellent eyesight and could see the zombies wandering aimlessly on the streets of the county.

"What time is it now?" Luo Ren tilted his head to look at Qing'e.

Qing'e looked at her watch and said, "Six twenty-seven."

"Six twenty-seven..." Luo Ren analyzed in a low voice: "According to the speed of the zombies, a distance of more than 20 kilometers should take about an hour... Well, let's take a break and wait until six fifty before we start."

Qing'e had no opinion on this, but was curious, so she took advantage of the break to ask: "Why do we want to attract zombies?"

Luo Ren smiled lightly and said: "Without some pressure, how can those people have the courage to leave?"

Qing'e suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Luo Ren wanted to withdraw all his troops from Yancheng, but stationed five or six kilometers northeast of Yancheng. It turned out that he wanted to use these zombies to scare those people who refused to migrate.

Thinking of this, she said with some worry: "Only let the soldiers leave the city, but the hundreds of thousands of people in my Wuyang Village are still in Yancheng. If the degree of intimidation is not controlled well, won't they suffer from unexpected disasters?"

Luo Ren was silent for a while, turned his head to look at her, and said: "The death that should be inevitable, I have placed them in the place farthest from the entrance and exit. As long as they don't run around, they should be fine."

Qing'e nodded. She was not afraid of death, nor was she unwilling to see death. To date, she has seen nine hundred and ninety-nine dead people, if not a thousand, and has witnessed many cruel killings. She is no longer surprised.

But after all, she has been a modern person for more than 20 years before entering this bloody and sinful world. There are still modern people's ideas in her heart, and she still has some sympathy for those who suffer from unexpected disasters.

But this sympathy is just sympathy.

As time passed, the sky turned pale, and the gray sky gradually became brighter, which made Luo Ren and Qing'e's vision more open.

Qing'e raised her hand to look at the watch and read: "It's six forty-six."

Luo Ren looked at the county town at the foot of the mountain. At this time, he could see the zombies on the street more clearly. He immediately said: "We will split into two groups. I will go to the East City and you will go to the West City, and then we will meet from the only way into the city.

Remember, don't fight to the end, just lure the zombies."

Qing'e nodded heavily, "I remember."

Da Da Da Da...

Qing'e watched the seconds of the watch. With each swing, it would get closer to six fifty. When it passed 12 o'clock, Qing'e hurriedly said: "Fifty."

"Do it!"

Luo Ren shouted softly, and the two were about to set off, but at this time, they saw two red figures flying into the county town.

The speed of these two figures was very fast, reaching the level of advanced level 2 life, but this was not fast for Luo Ren, and he could still see their appearance clearly.

Like humans, these two creatures have a pair of hands and feet, only a circle of animal skin and leaves around the important parts of the lower body, a necklace made of sharp teeth hanging around their necks, and a crude axe in their hands.

Their skin is light red, with bright red protruding patterns on their faces and shoulders. The patterns of these two humanoid creatures are different.

Qing'e asked in surprise: "What is that? Zombies? Fierce beasts?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Luo Ren's eyes condensed slightly. He saw that the two humanoid creatures did not rush around after entering the county town. They swept across the floors without alarming the zombies on the streets.

Luo Ren therefore determined that these two humanoid creatures must not be zombies. As for whether they are ferocious beasts, it remains to be verified, but he guessed that these two creatures are most likely not ferocious beasts. First, such animals have never been seen on Blue Star. Second, ferocious beasts are like humans. There is no need for them to randomly break into places like urban areas where there are many zombies.

In just a few breaths, two humanoid creatures stopped on the roof of a five-story building. They clung to the wall and looked down cautiously, as if they were observing something.

Luo Ren was just thinking about whether to move and catch the two creatures directly, but suddenly he noticed something behind him.

"Get out of the way!"

In a flash, Luo Ren suddenly shouted, Qing'e also sensed the danger and retreated quickly to the left without hesitation, while Luo Ren retreated several feet to the right. It was also the moment they left that dozens of arrows, with the sound of breaking through the air, shot at the place where they had just been.

Those arrows hit the stones on the ground, flashing sparks, sank into the depth of a palm, and hit the tree trunk. The tree trunk as thick as a bucket was directly pierced at both ends, and the arrows flew dozens of meters with wood chips.

"What a powerful bow and arrow!" Luo Ren was shocked. These arrows have much stronger penetration than small firearms. Look at the arrowheads, triangular in shape, bright black, not like iron, more like obsidian, but with the hardness of obsidian, it will break first when shot on granite, instead of piercing.

However, the most important thing at the moment is not the material of the arrow, but the person who shot the arrow. His eyes fell on the jungle behind, where the people were no longer disguised, and he could clearly hear the rustling sound at this time.

He said to Qing'e: "Wait for me here." Then he rushed straight into the jungle.

Crossing those obstacles, he saw the people who shot the arrows. To be precise, they were not people, but humanoid creatures. They all had light red skin and bright red patterns on their faces and shoulders. When these creatures saw Luo Ren, they immediately shouted: "Switch weapons, kill this human male!"

Their voices were as rough as wild beasts, and they all had strong muscles, comparable to professional bodybuilders. However, they were not tall, and the tallest was only 1.56 meters tall.

These humanoid creatures dropped their shortbows and replaced them with crudely made axes. The axes were also bright black, made of something like obsidian, and the axe handles were just hardwood sticks that were not polished smoothly. In short, the workmanship was very rough.

After replacing the melee axes, the closest humanoid creature jumped three meters high, raised the axe above his head, and chopped down at Luo Ren with great momentum.
