Stepping over the blood-stained rubble of the ruins, Lin night felt that he was getting closer to the answer.

What answer?

The answer after coming to this world.

......

"Infected body! That's the infected body!"

"The Infected has killed, the Infected has killed!"

"Find her and kill her."

"We should kill all the infected in Chernobyl!"

......

Noisy voices rang out in Lin Ye's ears, angry people with iron bars and axes in their hands, yelling to cut all the "infected" into pieces. This kind of scene, Lin night is already common, when he came to this world, almost every day can see.

Because this is Chernobyl.

To be precise, because this is "Tomorrow's Ark".

Two years ago, Lin night passed away because of a heart attack. And when he opened his eyes once again, he found that he did not die, but came to a strange world. And what made him feel absurd was that it was still a game world, and a mobile game that was little known in the previous life. The game was being talked about by players because it was always in beta, and at that time Lin night was joking with his friends, saying "this game will not be in beta until after I die".

Then, there was no more. He also does not know whether the real-world "Tomorrow's Ark" has been publicly tested or not, but he did die before "Tomorrow's Ark" was publicly tested.

And it took him a while to realize that he had crossed over into the world of Tomorrow's Ark, because he wasn't really familiar with the game that was always in beta. He could only tell by a few points, such as "infected", such as "natural disaster".

However, until now he had not seen the protagonists of Ark of Tomorrow and did not know where "Rhode Island" was. He came to this world two years ago, life is as boring as boiling water. Every day, he watched normal people fight and kill the infected, listened to the councilors advocate a policy of expelling all the infected, and occasionally the infected would riot, but they were soon replaced by the The military and police will soon be suppressed by thunderous and bloody means. In order to prevent similar incidents from happening, there is often one "infected" riot, there will be ten "infected" dead.

Lin night once saw such a scene, a young girl who was not yet an adult was killed by angry normal people with a gun, just because her body is no longer "pure".

"The infected are the sinners contaminated by the source stone and should be executed".

This is the idea of the majority of normal people in Chernobyl, but Lin night, he is a normal person, but not the normal people in Chernobyl.

In order to survive, he found an insignificant job in this town. He has lived in a muddle until now, and does not know why he lives, just like the walking dead. Because he does not know what God's intention is to throw him into this world. He is not like the travellers in those online novels, with the system, with the main god destiny, except for one insignificant ability, this ability is instead to allow him to survive in this Chernobyl.

Lin night, male, twenty years old, trainee pet doctor.

He bent down and passed by a burly uniformed officer, who saw this and shouted at him, "Hey! There's an 'infected' in there!"

The infected, yes, the infected!

After coming to this world, Lin night had never been as excited as he was today. Because he heard the term he wanted to hear the most in the past two years from the mouth of a policeman - "Rhode Island".

In Chernobyl's South Street, an infected person from the terrorist organization "Rhode Island" had wounded someone and gone into a rage.

At the time of hearing this news, Lin night immediately put down the work in hand, towards the South Street ran wildly, the body is also clad in a white coat, very eye-catching.

Please, it must be true!

Lin night prayed in his heart.

Two years, please you must be true ah!

He shouted in his heart.

I don't know how long he ran, he saw an injured man, fell in the rubble, covered in blood.

"Help me!" The man reached out his hand to Lin night, "Doctor!"

Lin night originally wanted to turn a blind eye, after all, it was more important to find someone now.

However, the doctor's duty prevented him from seeing the dead, so after gritting his teeth, he still ran to the man's side.

"Don't talk, I'll stop your bleeding." Lin night took out the bandage.

The man was just about to say thank you when his eyes suddenly glanced at Lin night's chest plate and was shocked: "You're a veterinarian?!"

"Pet doctor, pet doctor ...... can you shut the fuck up!" Lin night is very annoyed, "again noise I will give you rabies vaccine!"

The man did not respond to Lin night, he had lost too much blood, found to save their own surprisingly veterinarian, and was in great shock, immediately fainted.

Lin night is very speechless, thinking I should have known not to meddle. And this guy fainted too fast, he also wanted to ask the infected from Rhode Island to where it went.

But Lin night soon found that the man had a row of bloody footprints behind him. It seems to have fled here after the attack, and the footprints spread all the way to an alley.

Could ......

Lin night's heart was in his throat, after bandaging the man, he slowly got up and slowly walked forward along the footprints.

When it came to the alley, Lin night almost threw up his lunch.

He suspected that he had come to hell.

There were at least eight broken bodies in front of him.

As a doctor, Lin night could tell at a glance the cause of death of these people.

It was a wound caused by a sharp weapon. It was the ancient way of killing, and the alley was littered with blood and intestines. He took a deep breath and slightly eased the discomfort in his heart before stepping into the alley.

Scared?

Actually very afraid.

Lin night has never been the kind of person who has a lot of guts.

But compared to life and death, there is indeed something more important in this world, and that is the meaning of living. Especially after experiencing a death, he wanted to know this even more.

So here he comes.

As he walked past the bodies, he noticed one thing: the vast majority of the people who died here were "infected", and only a very small number were human.

But why is that? In theory, it should be difficult for ordinary people to defeat the "infected".

Lin night can not figure out, but he soon knew the answer. He finally found the only living person other than him in the alley, who was sitting in the corner.

From the shape of the body, there was no doubt that this was a woman. She was wearing a black robe, a hood, and her head was bowed so that her face could not be seen.

This is, an infected person, right?

Lin night narrowed his eyes to gaze at the other party.

There was a long black sword behind her, and the sword was oozing blood down the side. There is no doubt that she killed these "infected" compatriots.

Thinking of this, Lin night's heart tightened and felt that he had found the right one.

Cleared his throat, was about to speak, but the other party seems to have sensed something, looked up.

Silver hair, black eyes, an excessively good-looking face.

Lin night was surprised by the other party's beauty, and then realized that he had indeed found the right person.

He was about to speak again, but then realized that the other party's state seemed a little off.

The woman ...... was not right, and the girl's body was trembling. Her beautiful dark eyes were also not calm or surprised, but angry as well as manic.

Damn!

Lin night subconsciously took a step back.

The "infected" in front of him was no longer under control.

She was transforming from a "human" to a "beast".

"Go ......" the girl clenched her teeth and said these two words to Lin Ye with difficulty, her humanity still binding her body.

This is also the reason why the human was able to run away before, right?

The most important thing Lin night should do at this time is naturally to run, run as far as possible, before the girl completely out of control to run to the absolute safety of the location, this is what reason tells him to do.

However, Lin night took a step forward.

"Don't be afraid." He said in as gentle a voice as possible, "Let me help you."

Then reached out to the girl, as if he were trying to pet a cat about to blow up at work.

A flash of surprise passed through the girl's eyes, but it was also a flash of surprise that distracted her, thus losing control of her body.

"Get out of here!" She shouted, but at the same time she drew the sword behind her.

The sword drew a harsh arc in the air and slashed down Lin night's head.

Her action is really too fast, but Lin night's reaction is not slow, quickly lowered his head, although a few hair was cut off, but always save the life.

And at this point, Lin night is also very clear that he can no longer hesitate. Once he chose to run away and expose his back to this completely frenzied girl, he would definitely not survive a second. So he retreated instead of advancing, and when the girl swung her second sword, he pounced on her, holding her in a deadly embrace.

But this did not remove the girl's strength, the girl an elbow strike in the back of the Lin night, pain Lin night almost let go.

But he did not let go, but increased the force in his hand.

"It's okay, I'm here." Lin night said loudly, "Look me in the eye and find your sanity! Come back to the human side!"

He forced the girl to stare into his eyes.

And then saw his resolute self in the girl's pupils.

......

You brought me into this world.

Want me to do something?

Let me see it.

......

He pressed the girl's head, as if stroking the back of a cat's neck, and then repeated "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

And in his mind, he was thinking: "This damn ability, hurry up and give me the effect. !!!!

Seemingly in response to his thoughts, the girl's strength in her arms was really much less.

Lin night's is like injecting magic power into the girl's body as if, the girl's heart of mania and violence doused.

Slowly, the sword hung in mid-air.

And the girl's eyes have been completely dispersed mania as well as restlessness, the remaining only clarity as well as surprise.

At this moment, Lin night knew he had bet right.

He took a deep breath, and then struggled to squeeze out a smile to the girl: "Welcome back."
