Chapter 80: The Gate of Darkness
In the dark night, in the hospital in the infected area, Ling Tian held a knife to the neck of the man in black robe and kept questioning his true identity.
"I...my name is Matthew."
Looking at Ling Tian, who was covered in bruises and looked like a ghost, the man in black robe tremblingly said his name.
"Matthew." Ling Tian repeated, then bared his teeth and asked, "Why did you blow up the hospital?"
"To...to get the Corruptor." Matthew said tremblingly, feeling the cold blade on his neck.
"Get the Corruptor? Are you also a Dragon Warrior?" Ling Tian immediately became vigilant after hearing this, frowning and asked, holding the Wind Sword in his right hand and couldn't help but increase his strength a little more.
"No, no, no, I'm not, I'm not a dragon warrior." Feeling the blood flowing from his neck, Matthew quickly tilted his head back and waved his hands anxiously.
"Then what do you want the Corruptor for?" Ling Tian preconceived the idea that the other party was also a dragon warrior and came to the Corruptor to improve his dragon transformation after the battle.
"For...for food." Matthew lowered his head and whispered.
"What?" Ling Tian doubted his ears.
"I said, I did it for the food." Matthew raised his head and looked at Ling Tian seriously.
"To eat? Damn it, I thought I was ruthless enough when I was a kid to eat cake when I was hungry. I dare you to be more ruthless than me, eating zombies? I admire you!" Ling Tian turned his head and spit out a mouthful of blood foam, and gave Matthew a fist.
Seeing that the opponent was not a dragon warrior, Ling Tian panted and sat down. As soon as he relaxed his mind, pain came over him like a tide. He quickly took out a piece of energy amethyst and began to recover from the injury.
Ling Tian's injuries were indeed serious. His left arm used for defense was directly fractured. This was very fatal for Ling Tian, who was only one-armed and transformed into a dragon. There were also multiple wounds on his body and head, which had to be dealt with quickly.
After sitting down, Ling Tian made a simple inquiry to Matthew.
According to Matthew himself, he is a "scavenger."
The so-called scavengers are actually a group that believes in doomsday theory. They believe that the emergence of the zombie race is to replace humans, and they firmly believe that the zombie race is the real master of the earth.
Scavengers are staunch and fanatical zombie enthusiasts. They long for the power of zombies, but do not want to simply be infected and become a mindless walking zombie.
Therefore, a perverted, alternative and extremely evil way of cultivation has been developed, which is to use specific methods to absorb and even transplant the organs and bones of zombies to gain strength from them.
Ling Tian had also heard about the group of scavengers. Most of them lived in infected areas like the wanderers, but they were extremely mysterious and few people could discover the true identities of their members.
But whenever it is discovered, it often causes a sensation, because in order to study the power of zombies, the other party often engages in terrorist activities such as dissecting zombies and human sacrifice.
What's even worse is that for the convenience of research, zombies are directly raised in captivity, and the zombies need to eat fresh flesh and blood, causing nearby humans to suffer successively.
Therefore, because they are too evil and weird, and their anti-human and anti-social tendencies are too serious, as soon as this group is discovered, even if there is just a clue, they will be hunted down by various forces until they are exterminated.
Within the safe zone, any scavenger organization is strictly prohibited. Once discovered, it will be a fight to the death.
Therefore, in recent years, the living space of the evil organization the Scavengers has been compressed to the extreme, and it has almost disappeared and rarely appears again.
"It was you who drove away the zombies around here, right?" After understanding the general situation, Ling Tian asked in detail.
"Yes, I sprinkled the bone meal of elite zombies on several main roads around here. Ordinary zombies are afraid of the smell and will not come near." Matthew said weakly.
"How many days have you been squatting with us?" Ling Tian asked coldly.
"I have been squatting for a long time. When you and another group of people were having a gun battle, I was already nearby."
"A gunfight?" Ling Tian frowned and said, then recalled the previous encounter with Huang Biao and others: "That's not right, the Corruptor only appeared after we exchanged fire, why were you waiting here in advance?
Woolen cloth?"
"Because... because of this." Matthew pondered for a while, then opened the sleeve on his left arm and showed Ling Tian the strange mark on his wrist.
Ling Tian looked at the blood-red eyes enclosed in the five-pointed star. For a moment, a chill surged out of his heart, making him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar and his head was numb.
"What... what is this?" Ling Tian suppressed the nausea in his heart and took a step back.
Seeing Ling Tian's disgusted look, Matthew lowered his head, stretched out his hand to pull up his sleeve, and blocked the mark on his wrist again.
"This is the devil's eye, the spiritual mark of the scavenger. It led me here." Matthew lowered his head and said softly, as if he felt disgraceful.
"Evil Eye? Does it have the ability to sense elite zombies?"
"Yes, every dark disciple has such a brand. The more dedication, the truer the faith, and the stronger the power brought by the brand." Matthew raised his pale cheeks and said energetically.
"Fuck you!"
Ling Tian shouted directly: "You are brainwashed here, and you still have faith. What kind of faith? Are you being treated like a drug addict?"
After receiving a big slap, the look in Matthew's eyes dimmed again. Ling Tian was right. Now it seems that when he first joined the Dark Portal, the so-called beliefs and so-called devotions preached in the organization were only
It's just the other side's brainwashing method.
If it hadn't been for brainwashing, then I wouldn't have had to escape from the organization and be hunted down all the way to this day.
"You just said that you are the disciples of darkness?"
Ling Tian slapped Matthew across the mouth, which affected his own wound. He gasped in pain, calmed down a bit, and then asked.
He was indeed very curious about the group of scavengers. Now that he had finally caught a living one, he naturally wanted to inquire thoroughly.
"Yes, scavengers are just what you call outsiders. Within the Dark Portal organization, we call ourselves the Dark Disciples, and we believe in the Lord of Darkness." Matthew said in detail.
"Since you are an organization, why are you alone? Where are your other friends?" Ling Tian asked in confusion.
"I sneaked out on my own, and I'm already on the death list within the organization. The Dark Portal is still chasing me." Matthew sighed and lowered his head.
"Run away? I think your little comrade's beliefs are quite pure? Why did you leave the organization and become a deserter?"
"Because...because they are planning a terrorist attack!" Matthew suddenly raised his head and said with wide eyes.
