Chapter 44: Dead Corpse

"It's gold!" Macon, Zach and others also noticed the accessories on the counter, showing a bit of excitement on their faces.

When Scott heard the words of a few people, his smile faded, and he turned his head lightly, and said, "Let me explain first, although everyone is a group, the materials picked up are all calculated separately. This has always been the case. Since the rules, they are very clear about this, but I didn't mean to bully you." Said, Nuzui pointed to the twenty consortium scavengers.

When Macon and the others heard the words, their expressions changed, and they turned their heads to look, only to see a thin young man led by the twenty consortium scavengers nodded and said, "Yes, the materials picked up are all based on their abilities, so don't think about being lazy, who is it? If you are lucky, you will find as many as you can."

Hearing this, Macon and the others were suddenly a little frustrated. There is no doubt that the gold ornaments here were found by Scott first, and naturally they were his materials, so they couldn't get any commission.

Du Dian was also a little disappointed when he heard this rule, but he quickly regained his spirits. This rule is actually fair to their newcomers. With this rule protection, at least the materials they picked up will not be used by others. To share, in front of him, it was just that Scott had better luck, and he just picked a place to settle down, which happened to be a gold shop, and he made a lot of money.

At this time, Scott smashed all the glass on the cabinet, took out all the accessories inside, and stacked them in one of the cabinets, then clenched the dagger again, and said, "Go upstairs first and clean it up. "Speaking of this, what I remembered, I turned back to Du Dian and others and said: "The materials that everyone picked up, others had better not try to steal or use other dirty methods to seize, if the owner of the materials died in the process of scavenging, The supplies he picked up will only belong to the consortium and will not be shared."

Du Di'an knew that he was admonishing these newcomers not to be obsessed with profit and to use some crooked minds, and at the same time secretly appreciated that the consortium established such a rule, which has indeed largely avoided scavengers from killing each other in the wilderness.

After hearing Scott's words, the faces of the children standing at the end changed, they held their weapons and followed the team.

Scott and Mia led the way, walking down the stairs.

There are cracks with thick fingers on the corridor covered with vegetation, and there are some things scattered on the ground. Although it is covered with heavy dust and vegetation, Du Di'an still recognizes it at a glance. It is a woman's shoes and wallet, which seems to be silently telling the story of the past. riots that occurred.

With a bang, in vain, the stairs that a middle-aged man from a consortium of scavengers stepped on collapsed. He also fell down and fell to the ground. Fortunately, it was only the first floor, and he was blessed with a physique. There was no injury, but the sudden movement shocked everyone else.

Stolen content warning: this tale belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences elsewhere.

Scott looked back and frowned, "Be careful." After speaking, he took the lead to the second floor, where the light was extremely dim, the corridor was dark, and the ventilation windows were already covered with vegetation, so sunlight could not penetrate Come in, it's damp and dark inside.

Scott took out his scythe and lit a torch. The dim light shone around him. He held the torch and walked in front to the first room in front of the corridor. Gently pushing the door open, a cold wind suddenly blew out of the room, almost extinguishing the torch.

Scott lowered the torch a little, held a sword in the other hand, and slowly entered the room, only to see a mess on the ground inside, the chair overturned, the curtain was torn in half, the window was broken, and it was dense outside. of vegetation.

Click!

In vain, a slight voice came from the depths of the room.

Scott's face changed, and he immediately raised the torch to take a look. In the bathroom inside the room, the curtain of the bathroom collapsed to the ground, and two pale and dry thighs stretched out from the bathroom, following his torch. Shining, he immediately saw that the owner of this thigh was actually a woman whose face was completely rotten, and the slight voice came from her chest.

There, a huge black mouse was lying on the ground, gnawing at the woman's chest.

Du Di'an saw this scene from the space between Scott's arms, his pupils shrank suddenly, this mouse was as big as a hound, with thick dark hair all over his body, exuding a strong rancid smell, and a tail as thick as an adult's finger. He ate people's corpses with relish!

"It's a monster!" Scott reacted first, growling lowly, and slashing with his sword!

At this time, the huge mouse that ate the woman also noticed the firelight behind it. It turned its head and glanced at it. Its eyes were blood red and full of violence. The sharp mouth was stained with sticky blood, and a few extremely long whiskers fluttered slightly. Noticing that there were more people on Scott's side, he paused for a while, then turned around and ran into the bathroom, stepping on the bathtub and jumping out of the window.

Scott and Mia's attacks were all in vain, and they looked at each other with lingering fears.

At this time, Macon and others at the back also noticed the movement, and when they heard Scott's words, they all gathered around.

Scott said in a low voice, "Escape." After that, he put down the torch and looked at the dead woman. The woman seemed to be dead and stared at him, her pupils were actually pale green.

"It stinks." Macon said, covering his nose.

Du Dian has forgotten to breathe, and the shock in his heart is no trivial matter. Could it be that under the three hundred years of nuclear radiation, the mice living here have been passed down from generation to generation, and the genes have mutated so terribly?

His eyes fell on this woman, who was completely naked, covered by a collapsed bathroom curtain, the stiff flesh on his chest had been gnawed deeply by the mouse, and half of his heart had been bitten off. His rib, however, his eyes fell on the other's eyebrows, where there was a blood hole as thick as a finger, which seemed to be... shot by a bullet?

Du Dian was stunned for a moment, and then rejected the possibility of bullets. Instead, it was more like the damage caused by bows and arrows. After all, the power of bullets can obviously tear and destroy the flesh and blood around the bullet holes.

But what he couldn't understand was that if this woman died with a bow and arrow, it would be at the hands of a human being. Who would shoot her with a bow and arrow? In vain, he thought of a point that he had overlooked, and his whole body suddenly stood up!

This woman is obviously taking a bath!

However, the water supply system in this house should have been broken long ago!

No matter whether the other party is a scavenger or a hunter, he will never endure not taking a bath for ten days. The most important thing is that people in this world seldom take a bath like this!

"Difficult, could it be that she was a human three hundred years ago? Died in the bath? But if so... her body should have rotted long ago!" Du Di'an was a little stunned, when Mia suddenly squatted down, as if Not wanting this woman to die in the wilderness with her body exposed, she slightly lifted the curtain over her body to cover her body. However, when he mentioned it, Du Di'an accidentally saw that the woman's arm... was actually a sharp claw!

The nails turned into sharp and long thorns, and the five thorns were slightly curved. It was hard to imagine how much damage it would cause when grasped by such a hand!

"Mutant person?" Du Dian was speechless, and his mind became a little confused.
