Chapter 183 Cinema

Chapter 183 Cinema

A name for nothing? Strong on the outside but weak on the inside? All show and no substance?

Upon hearing this, the smile on Lu Xingchen's face suddenly froze, his face became paler and paler, and every word seemed to accurately guess his sore spot.

Sasha glanced at him out of the corner of her eye and found that it worked, so she continued to fan the flames, "You can't even protect a little girl, and you still want to protect all of humanity. Sigh... If it were me, I would probably find a crack in the ground to crawl into. It just so happens that your fire ability can be used to heat the kang to keep people warm..."

"shut up!"

Lu Xingchen stood up suddenly, clenching his teeth and pointing viciously at the warehouse in front of him: "Tell me, which warehouse should we go to first? If I don't burn all the snakes, insects, rats and ants in it, I'll consider their sanitation good!"

Sasha smiled triumphantly, raised her sunglasses, and waved her hand forward: "Send a secret!"

……

The motorcycle was driving on a quiet road. The surrounding trees were lush and green under the sun. Lin Xian sat in the back seat, looking at the outline of the town street in front of him. Not far from the town, a chemical plant with large reactors and distillation towers stood behind the town.

"Generally speaking, large chemical plants are far away from residential areas, but this one doesn't seem to be that far away," Lin Xian said.

KIKI said, "Maybe there really was some pollutant leak from the chemical plant, so those monsters couldn't get in."

Lin Xian had a headache after hearing this: "Monsters can't come in, but we can, so who is the monster?"

"That's not necessarily true~" KIKI said stubbornly: "There may be some things that humans can adapt to but monsters can't. Haven't you seen the movie about alien invasion? A cold germ that is not fatal to humans can wipe out the alien army~"

Lin Xian was speechless. What this girl said seemed to make some sense.

So he sniffed the air to see if he could smell any strange chemicals.

As it approached the town street, the motorcycle began to slow down.

Rows of houses appeared in their sight. The streets of the town were filled with low buildings and shops. Many of them had their doors tightly closed, while some had their doors half-open and were swaying gently in the wind. The streets were covered with leaves that had turned yellow and fallen prematurely due to the high temperature. The shelves of the convenience stores were empty, covered with dust and moldy items.

KIKI looked at the mess on the street and couldn't help but frowned and said, "This place is so weird, it doesn't look like anyone lives here."

Lin Xian kept observing his surroundings, picked up the soul value detector and started the test directly.

Buzz~ A faint light spread out and then converged.

The pointer on the detector slowly dropped from a negative number to 0, which surprised Lin Xian. He didn't know if this old-fashioned detector had a malfunction or something. He felt the pointer moving...

It seems a little slow.

squeak~
The motorcycle drove into an intersection, which seemed to be the center of the town. It was called the center because there was actually a supermarket and a bank on the street, and a relatively large movie theater on the opposite side of the street.

The two men got off the motorcycle and looked around. The streets they saw showed an air of depression and decay in the sunlight. They were quiet and dilapidated. There were also rotting bodies of residents on the roadside, their clothes had dried up and stuck to the ground, and flies were buzzing around.

"Strange, I clearly saw these yesterday... and these as well." KIKI looked up at the upper floors of the shops. The windows were empty. There were still a few mannequins in the glass window of a clothing store. Their clothes had been stripped off long ago. They stood crookedly behind the window, as if staring at Lin Xian and KIKI on the street. Lin Xian also felt very strange at this time. He didn't see anyone on the way in, but he and KIKI saw candlelight in the town last night, and there were more than one house.

"Be careful." Lin Xian reminded, and turned his gaze towards the direction of the cinema: "Let's go into the mall and take a look."

There were no zombies in the town, but no living people were seen either, which really puzzled Lin Xian. He didn't know whether Shu Qin and the building had discovered anything.

KIKI nodded: "Let's go, maybe someone is hiding and deliberately not coming out."

Lin Xian walked into the door of the cinema, and was immediately hit by a rotten and damp smell. He frowned, walked ahead cautiously and said, "Logically speaking, this place can prevent strange entities from entering, so it should be a great place to survive. Building a shelter here is definitely better than fleeing everywhere, but if there are no living people..."

"Does that mean there are things here that are scarier than the strange body?" KIKI responded directly.

Lin Xian kept it to himself, hoping that his guess was wrong.

The cinema hall was pitch black. Lin Xian quickly produced a strong flashlight in his hand. With a snap, the blinding white light instantly illuminated most of the hall.

What caught the eye was a mess. There was a row of ticket machines and popcorn machines against the wall, and a few tattered tents in the corner. Several corpses were lying there in a mess. They seemed to be the residents of Rain Town who had fled here shortly after the Apocalypse.

"It doesn't look like there are any survivors here..."

Lin Xian took a quick look and was about to leave when KIKI suddenly said, "Lin Xian, there's a sound inside!"

He immediately turned around and shone the flashlight in the direction where KIKI was talking, and found that it was the corridor of the theater. The two of them made eye contact, reached a consensus, and walked inside carefully.

Snap, snap~
There was an intermittent sound of water leaking from deep in the corridor, but other than that the whole space was extremely quiet, which made people feel a little uneasy.

KIKI floated up directly, flew to the door of a theater and stopped, then pointed at Lin Xian, meaning that the sound she just heard came from inside.

Lin Xian nodded, electricity gathered in his palms, and at the same time he reached out and slowly pushed open the door of the theater.

Haha~
A whimpering sound of rusted metal suddenly sounded in the corridor. In just a moment, an extremely strong stench burst out. KIKI's face changed drastically and he flew back suddenly, pinching his nose, looking like he was vomiting.

Lin Xian also frowned. The smell almost made his eyes go black. He had seen many mountains of corpses and seas of blood along the way, but this was the first time he smelled such a strong stench!

Trying hard to suppress his nausea, he opened the door directly, but apart from the foul smell, there was no other sound coming from the theater.

Lin Xian picked up the flashlight and shone it inside. He found that the corridor was extremely empty. The screen in front had been rotten into a strip of cloth. So the two of them walked into the corridor one after the other. KIKI followed behind and kept pinching her nose tightly and fanning herself: "It stinks, it stinks."

Lie.

Lin Xian looked solemn and motioned for her not to make any sound. The two of them walked out of the aisle and only then saw the movie viewing seats on the slope that stretched upward to the side and rear. He immediately swept the flashlight upward, but as soon as the flashlight shone over, the two of them's pupils tightened instantly. KIKI was so scared that she hissed and immediately hid behind Lin Xian.

Under the white light of the flashlight, the rows of seats in the theater were now filled with people, neatly arranged.

But these 'people' in front of him were neither living people nor zombies, but peeled human skins and rotting and moldy skeletons!
