Darkness is Coming Chapter 24

   Yang Xiaoqian smiled stiffly, took out his own red river, lit one, and threw another one to Yu Qian.

   Yu Qian imitated Yang Xiaoqian's movements, but he didn't **** the cigarette into his lungs, he only dared to spit it out after passing it in his mouth.

   "You're smoking a hookah."

   "No difference." Yu Qian exhaled smoke to block his face, making it difficult to see, "Since you have awakened your abilities, are we now official companions? We have to clarify some things."

"you say."

  Although it's a bit disgusting to say that, Yang Xiaoqian really felt that Yu Qian knew what he was going to do as soon as he poked his butt, and even the answer had already been conceived in his mind when he paused.

"You're smart, that's good, but as far as I know, most smart people don't like to follow orders, especially when it comes to their own lives. And now you've awakened a strong ability, you..." Yu Qian The question is not finished, but the meaning of the words is obvious.

Yang Xiaoqian laughed and said: "Guo Jia is smarter than Cao Cao, Zhuge Liang is smarter than Liu Bei, and I haven't seen them kill the lord and become the boss. Smart people should be more aware of their own position, now I am not suitable to be a leader - of course, You are even more unsuitable, don't be angry, let me just say that, we are all too inexperienced."

"But experience can be accumulated. Don't worry, I won't have other thoughts. Now that we are a community of interests, I won't be stupid." Yang Xiaoqian pressed the **** of his cigarette and said, "It's better than this, it's about the Awakened. You call the shots, and I call the shots for ordinary people?"

   "I have no opinion, anyway, all I need is the awakened." Yu Qian imitated Yang Xiaoqian to extinguish the cigarette in his hand and asked, "Why do you value those ordinary people so much?"

Yang Xiaoqian thought for a while and said, "There are many reasons, such as they can serve us; maybe some of them have the professional knowledge we need; they can assist us in our actions... But in the end, maybe I do have some heroic complexes. There is nothing wrong with helping others and enjoying being a hero as much as you can without hindering yourself."

   "Then what if the people you rescued are unhappy for you, and they are always holding you back? Catch them to feed the living corpses?" Yu Qian teased playfully.

"That's needless to say, arrest him and do it... arresting Shen He and feeding them to zombies would be considered enemy-funding." Yang Xiaoqian originally wanted to say that he would arrest him for in vivo experiments, but thinking about Yu Qian's tragic past, he hurriedly changed his mind. mouth.

"By the way, what are your abilities?" Yu Qian asked. Although it is a bit taboo to ask other people's abilities bluntly, but knowing the abilities of his teammates is the only way to cooperate in combat. After asking Yu Qian, he explained first: "My abilities are metal. You already know about control. You asked me before why it is easy to block bullets, but difficult to control bullets? It's like this, my metal control ability is limited by two aspects, the first is quality, the greater the quality, the harder it is for me, and the second It's the size. The smaller the size, the more attention I need to pay attention to, and naturally the more laborious it will be. If this small metal object travels very fast, it will be more difficult for me to control - I don't understand why."

   "Because of the kinetic energy." Yang Xiaoqian was stunned, and then he was puzzled, "According to what you said, the size of the bullet is not large, and the speed of the chamber is very fast. How can you stop it, and how can it stop so much?"

Yu Qian smiled: "Because I don't need to care about them, didn't you find that the bullets hovered not far from us every time? If my reaction can really catch up with its speed, why don't I just let them go Explosion? I just kept putting a barrier around to repel foreign metals, and it won't cost me much energy."

   "Like a magnetic field around you?" Yang Xiaoqian asked in surprise.

"That's right." Yu Qian said proudly, "I discovered this application by accident a long time ago. You told me to use the ability to control the bullet trajectory before, which also reminded me that some abilities may not be useless, but I didn't find the correct one. usage."

  Yang Xiaoqian considered for a moment and decided to speak out about his abilities. Since everyone was open and honest, he would be hypocritical. "My ability... I don't know how to say it. After breaking the chain, I saw a pitch-black giant - a humanoid creature. It seemed to be carrying me and running back all the way, and also picked up my dad in the middle. Now, can't you see it?"

   "I can't see it, I thought your ability was flying or telekinesis." Yu Qian frowned, thinking about Yang Xiaoqian's strange ability.

   "It feels a bit like a clone, but its athletic ability is very strong. It can carry two people over such a long distance in such a short period of time, and its combat effectiveness will not be poor." Yu Qian said.

   Yang Xiaoqian agreed: "If no one else can see it, then my ability should be said to be strong enough to explode."

   "Can you order it?" Yu Qian asked again.

Yang Xiaoqian nodded and said: "Yes, it feels like he is an independent living body, but he has no self-consciousness. He will execute the instructions on his own as long as I have a thought, instead of requiring me to control it. It is strange to say, After the ability awakened, I naturally understood a lot of information, and I used it like an arm and a finger, like instinct."

   "It's not surprising, didn't I tell you before, this ability is a part of human beings, it is innate to you, but you can only use it after the will of the planet unlocks your ability."

"Really." Yang Xiaoqian snorted, unwilling to continue this topic, got up and said: "Let's go, eat something first, I'll summon it when I have the strength, do more research and training on the use of my abilities, it may be necessary to Some time, but it's necessary."

  Yu Qian agrees that understanding the use and limitations of his own abilities is extremely important in battle.

Pushing open the crimson wooden door, Yang Xiaoqian and Yu Qian walked down the spiral staircase without haste. From the staircase, you can see the entire house has four floors. It adopts the decoration style of the wealthy businessmen along the coast in the 1990s, with a spiral staircase. Surrounded by the center, you can clearly see the living room on the first floor when you stand on the stairs and stick your head out.

   "The house is big enough, and the quality of the decoration is bad enough." Yang Xiaoqian complained that someone who owns such a property would not have the money to renovate it once.

   Walking to the living room on the first floor, the aroma of vegetables wafts from the dining room on the right side of the living room, which induces saliva, and there are several plates of home-cooked dishes on the turntable on the large round table.

   In the living room, Wang Li was sitting on the sofa smoking a cigarette. Next to him was a doctor in a white coat with only one shoe. The TV was on, but there was only a rustling sound and a gray screen.

   A family of three squatted beside the entrance, shivering like a frozen chicken and didn't dare to look up.

   "Is there no signal on the TV?" Yang Xiaoqian sat casually next to Wang Li and glanced at him, "Yo, the best and the world, good cigarettes, there are hundreds of packs before the tobacco price limit?"

Wang Li smiled politely and handed him a cigarette. He had seen Yang Xiaoqian's super powers. He could not offend such a talented person. He has been in the society for more than ten years. Hacked to death on the street, not to mention that the city is now full of zombies in danger, and it is good to follow Yang Xiaoqian and Yu Qian to save their lives.

"Yeah, it's the same with any channel, there is no signal." Wang Li sighed and said, logically speaking, at this time, an emergency notification should be issued to warn the citizens to stay at home and not go out to wait for rescue, but there is no news on radio, TV or radio. , this is completely unlike the style of Mayor Liu.

Yang Xiaoqian took the cigarette, but waved his hand to avoid Wang Li's hand holding the lighter. He just finished smoking one and he didn't want to smoke the second one. He wanted to follow his father's usual posture at home and put it behind his ear, but think about it. This action is a bit indecent and inconsistent with his style of pursuing style, so he took it down embarrassingly and placed it between his index and middle fingers.

   "Boss Wang, do you believe it now?"

   "I believe it." Wang Li had lingering fears, but fortunately, after he got the news of the flu, he took all the eldest wives and the small wives to Paradise Island, and it was fortunate that he did not have a single tendon to fight against Yang Xiaoqian and Yu Qian.

   "Then let's cooperate well, shall we?" Yang Xiaoqian smiled, "I'll explain the situation to you later, I need your cooperation."

   "Yes." Wang Li nodded again and again.

   Yang Xiaoqian breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, this boss Wang is a reasonable person. Without him, it would be difficult to operate Paradise Island without him.

Don't underestimate the ordinary people on this paradise island. Maybe they are not very useful in the face of corpse tides without training, but as long as they are well managed, they can provide the resources needed for the development of the entire base in other aspects: knowledge, manpower, experience, etc.

   It can be one person who can help one person, but only another group of people can help one group of people. Without these ordinary people to build a base, Yang Xiaoqian might be able to be a hero and save a hundred thousand people, and then what? Let them run after their **** as a fugitive army that attracts corpses or leave them and let them die?

   It is still in the early stage of the disaster. After two or three days, the people who have fled have been displaced and can't sleep at night, and the people who have stayed behind have no food at home.

  The city will lose a large number of residents with professional skills, and various systems such as education, finance, medical care, construction, administration, etc. will completely collapse.

  The function of the city will inevitably collapse. Water, electricity, urban cleaning, all kinds of communications, and public transportation will all be suspended. A few heavy rains can make the water on the street cover the calf.

   Panic and fear will depress the city and turn the steel jungle into a man-eating dark forest.

  When the time comes, do you want to be a medieval man who is cooking fire in front of the fireplace?

   In order to achieve the expected goal, in order to rescue more compatriots, in order to build his own power, in order to ensure the survival of himself and his father, in order to improve the quality of life on the basis of safety, Yang Xiaoqian needs a miniature city, and only with a foundation can he expand.

   Without the people on Paradise Island, Yang Xiaoqian, a young man who can only talk on paper, can't do anything.

   Without these people, what could Yang Xiaoqian and the other three do? Island Survival?

   "The last dish." Yang Yan came out of the kitchen with a plate of tender tenderloin in a delicious sauce, and greeted Yang Xiaoqian and Yu Qian, "Come for dinner, Xiaoqian, you haven't eaten for a day."

  I didn't feel anything at first, but after Yang Yan mentioned this, the empty and sour hunger in my stomach immediately rushed up.

   "Eat first, and talk while you eat." Yang Xiaoqian put down his cigarette, called to Yu Qian, Wang Li, and the doctor who was sitting by the side without saying a word, and walked to the table.
