Under the dim starlight, tens of thousands of giant mosquitoes formed a black cloud that crashed to the off-road vehicle.

The dense figure could make the human scalp numb. Chen Nan’s hands were full of cold sweat, and he couldn’t help but lean away from the car window. “These are, mutated mosquitoes?” Each one was the size of an adult’s fist and its mouthparts was almost twice as long as an injection needle. Just imagining the mosquito inserting its mouthparts into the skin to suck blood would make anyone’s hair stood up.

With a solemn expression, Shen Shian looked at the black cloud outside the window and nodded, “They should have mutated because of the virus.” After the mutated goose, he encountered the second mutant creature in the apocalypse.

“I have been asking myself why it’s been summer for a month and there’s not a single mosquito, it turned out they were hiding and secretly mutating.” Liu Fangzhou leaned on the back of his seat as if he was weak, and started to babble after cursing. “It’s over, I was bitten by a mosquito, am I already infected with the virus?”

“Why don’t you worry about this problem when you eat the mutant goose? The virus that causes the animal to mutate is obviously not the same as the zombie virus. Zombies are dead, these mosquitoes are still alive except for some changes in their body shape. Not to mention,” Shen Shian glanced at his arm, “The rash has disappeared.”

Everyone in the team was enhanced by Shen Shian using the spiritual spring water, which made their physical strength much better than ordinary people. After Liu Fangzhou was stung, Shen Shian gave him another bottle and he drank about one third. The swelling from the mosquito bite had disappeared long ago. Except for a slight redness, it was hard to see that it was there before

Chen Nan looked at it and exclaimed, “It’s really swollen but now I can’t see any trace! Brother Shen, your ointment really works. Should we go to the pharmacy to collect more?”

Liu Fangzhou vaguely guessed in his heart that this matter might not have much to do with the ointment, so he wanted to ask, but the question was immediately swallowed back when he came into contact with Shen Xun’s gaze: Anyway, there’s nothing wrong with just holding brother Shen’s thigh.

The rash was relieved and it was neither painful nor itchy. After drinking the spring water, he was full of energy, and even his ability had grown stronger. There were tens of thousands of mosquitoes outside the car window with a buzzing noise comparable to a helicopter engine and it was terrifying.

The slender to bizarre limbs lying on the glass, the sharp mouthparts glowed with cold light in the night, and the patterns near the wings and the body were clearly visible.

F*ck. Liu Fangzhou couldn’t help rubbing his arms, “All of them are Yellow fever mosquitoes. This kind of mosquito bites are the most itchy!”

With a glance, he felt that he was going to have a phobia. At the beginning, he wanted to divert his attention, but these things were in all directions outside the car window.

Tao Yuan looked around and lowered his voice, “We have turned off all the lights, and the doors and windows of the car are also closed tightly. Why are these mosquitoes still attacking the car?”

Shen Shian held the child in the back seat of the car, “Mosquitoes are not only attracted by lights, but also the body’s sweat, heat and exhaled carbon dioxide. I think that the mutated mosquitoes are likely to have this feature enhanced. It is impossible for any smells not to leak out at all. They are attracted by the smell, and they probably won’t leave for a while.”

Not only did they not leave, they were still crashing into the car vigorously. It looked like they were not going to give up until the car’s windows were broken. When the mouthparts clashed into the car body, it made a sound similar to a metal being hit.

Liu Fangzhou gulped, “F*ck me, shouldn’t these mosquitoes be starving?” Then after that, he was relieved. “Fortunately, we have the off-road vehicle. The glass can’t even be broken by bullets. If there is nowhere to hide, it will be over already.” Such a big mosquito, it wouldn’t take a few to suck a whole person dry.

Thinking of the scene, he was covered with cold sweat. He shook for a while and turned to look at Shen Shian. “Brother, you are so far-sighted, why did you think of modifying the car?” It was almost the same as tailoring in the apocalypse.

Shen Shian subconsciously rubbed the beads on his right wrist for a moment, and there was a flash of light in his eyes. “This is a birthday gift from my father.”

Oh. The three of people exchanged looks at the same time: Mr. Gu.

They didn’t know much about Shen Shian’s family affairs, but they could piece together a rough idea from only a few words. In any case, choosing to rush to the capital not long after the apocalypse was enough to illustrate the importance of this Mr. Gu.

When it comes to personal affairs at home, Shen Shian did not continue to speak, nor did the three of them continue to ask. The mosquitoes outside were like waves, and the off-road vehicle was an isolated island standing still in the wave.

Shen Xun suddenly said, “No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat. These mosquitoes are not small.”

The other four people instantly looked at him, “…”

Liu Fangzhou’s expression was distorted: Brother Xun, yes, but no.

Until the first sunlight appeared in the sky, the mosquitoes seemed to finally understand that it was impossible to suck blood. They regrouped into a black cloud, and flew away.

A few minutes later, Liu Fangzhou let out a long sigh of relief. “They are all gone.”

The five people got out of the car one after another, except for the silver-gray scales smudged on the glass windows, there was almost no sign that they had been besieged by mutant mosquitoes. Shen Shian walked to the tent where Chen Nan and Liu Fangzhou slept. Unexpectedly, a thin crack was found on the top of the tent. Tao Yuan said after checking, “It was cut by a sharp weapon.”

Chen Nan was shocked, “Is the mosquito the one who did it?” The tent was usually taken into space by brother Shen. It could not have been accidentally cut, it could not be him and Liu Fangzhou, and it was impossible for an outsider to not be noticed by them.

Shen Shian nodded. He wrapped his fingers in tissues, and picked up the mutant mosquito corpse that he had chopped into two pieces from the ground: With the morning light, he could clearly see that the two forelimbs were covered with small, blade-like synapses. Liu Fangzhou didn’t believe it, he took the mosquito foot and scratched it on the tent. An identical cut was made.

“F*ck.” A layer of cold sweat oozes from the back of his neck. “If it swiped twice on my arm, I would be gone.”

“It should also be able to contract spontaneously, just like a cat’s paw.” When stinging a person, they would put it away to prevent the prey from waking up. It was specially used for only breaking obstacles and attacking. The tent could not stop the mutant mosquitoes, and it was not known whether other insects have mutated. “In any case,” Shen Shian looked at everyone and said, “We can’t continue to sleep in the wild.”

To ensure that they could find buildings as resting spots every night, it meant that they must adjust their routes and move closer to the towns where humans gathered before the apocalypse.

On the third day after encountering the mutant mosquitoes, Shen Shian chose a small-sized county town as his destination for the night. The county was located at the intersection of county roads and provincial roads, which could be regarded as a transportation hub.

“I’ve been to this place,” Chen Nan recognized it, “The hot spring here is very famous. The provincial track and field team once participated in a game in the neighbouring city. Since the players played well, the coach took us here for two days as a reward.”

“Ohhh,” Liu Fangzhou was very interested, “Are there anything else in the county besides hot springs for fun?”

“I’m not sure. We stayed in the hot spring hotel for the two days. But the hot spring was very comfortable and the hotel service was very good.”

Tao Yuan was a little worried, “If it is a hot spring spot, will there be too many people?” More people meant more zombies, and more zombies meant that there was a greater possibility of zombies with abilities.

Shen Shian looked at the map information, “The resident population is about 20,000. The outbreak of the virus was not a holiday, it was at the beginning of April. Since it was not a holiday, and during that time the government had issued anti-epidemic warnings because of the flu, there should not be too many tourists.” More importantly, there was no more suitable place around. Other cities and towns were either too close to each other or they would arrive there less than noon, which was equivalent to wasting half a day or they would arrive there much later.

After thinking for a while, the final decision was made: “Just choose this place. Liu Fangzhou will pay attention to it. If there are too many zombies or there are zombies with abilities, it depends on the situation. If we can’t solve it, we will go around and stay in the car overnight.”

“Ok.”

The off-road vehicle approached the destination in the evening.

The car stopped two kilometers away from the county. One was because of the ochre-yellow city wall that was more than ten meters high and it was extremely magnificent when viewed from a distance. The five people who had experienced the tobacco factory incident were familiar with this wall——this was an earth-type ability’s masterpiece.

The second was because of Liu Fangzhou’s induction.

Shen Shian sat in the back seat of the car and looked at Liu Fangzhou, the co-pilot. “You repeat the results of the induction.”

“There are no zombies,” Liu Fangzhou said, “There are more than 5,400 survivors, of which 1,232 are ability users.”

More than one-fifth of the powers ratio, this was not expected by everyone. There were nearly four thousand people in the cigarette factory, and there were only more than one hundred ability users.

The boy wondered, “Does bathing in hot springs also help to evolve abilities?” Impossible.

“Or they are establishing a gathering place of ability users.” Shen Shian replied.

Oh, yes. The teenager suddenly thought: This possibility is a little bigger.

Chen Nan asked, “Brother Shen, shall we go yet?”

“Go, of course.” If it’s a gathering place of ability users, it might be possible to exchange some information. If it was the survivors here who had mastered a method to evolve abilities, then they are just fine. “But we can’t go so directly.”

Two minutes later, Shen Shian took the off-road vehicle and Chen Jiamu’s head into the space. Each of the four people carried a mountaineering bag, weapons, and Tao Yuan was fully armed, with a dagger in his boots and several guns stuffed around his waist.

Shen Shian hugged the dog spirit, “Let’s go.”

The sun hadn’t completely set, and the air was still hot and dry. With every breath, he could feel the coolness of the air conditioner disappearing quickly, and sweat rushed out of his pores.

His hair was a little too long, and it was uncomfortable as they stuck to his neck. Shen Shian used a rubber band to tie his hair in the same style as Shen Xun, and tucked the rest into the back of his ears, revealing a clear jawline. His face was reddened under the scorching sun, his temperament was slightly cold, and his brows were furrowed.

Liu Fangzhou glanced at him secretly and felt his heartbeat speeding up a bit. He got close to Chen Nan and used his arm to jab him lightly. “Brother Shen is really handsome. If I were a girl, I guess I would like him at first sight.”

Chen Nan agreed, “En.”

After getting approval, Liu Fangzhou was even more energetic, “Before the apocalypse he could definitely kill women and men with just his face and figure, he could just rely on his face…”

Shen Xun who was laying on Shen Shian’s shoulder turned his head and showed his teeth menacingly.

Liu Fangzhou instantly silenced his voice, with a well-behaved and shy expression, and made a zipper action on his mouth. Brother Xun, I was wrong.

“It’s here.” After a few minutes, Shen Shian took the lead in stopping.

Five people stood still on the road. The setting sun was like blood on his side, and the brilliant rays of light outlined the towering city wall tens of meters away, there was a gate on the wall, and there were four characters written on it:

Noah’s Ark.
