A Journey Through the Worlds of Film and Television.

Chapter 729 Abandoned City

Although he had the memory of surviving the apocalypse implanted by the system, Lu Cheng had never really fought against those Night Demons. If he was facing a small number of Night Demons, it would be fine. But if he was surrounded by thousands of fearless Night Demons, Lu Cheng was not sure if he could stop them.

In the first half of the night, Lu Cheng did not rest. He was secretly observing the night demons. Later, he opened the window a crack, took out a telescope, and observed the hunting process of the night demons more intuitively.

It was not until the second half of the night, after he had a clearer understanding of those night demons, that Lu Cheng rested.

The next morning, when the sun rose completely and the sky and earth were bright, Robert and his dog Sam also began a new day.

Robert was still a little dazed when he saw Lu Cheng already in the living room. Then he greeted him: "Good morning, how was your rest last night?"

"Not bad. I was just about to make some breakfast, would you like some?"

"Of course, don't forget Sam's. I'm used to working out first thing in the morning."

Robert's life is extremely regular. He does necessary physical exercises every morning and runs on the treadmill with Sam. After that, he and the dog enjoy breakfast. Robert will conduct daily experiments and go out after the experiments are over.

There was enough food stored in the room, and Robert was not short of various daily necessities. After all, he could get them from shopping malls and supermarkets of all sizes throughout the city without having to pay.

However, three years later, the only edible foods left were compressed biscuits with a very long shelf life or some powdered foods.

Robert did grow some vegetables, but he was not good at it and the growth of those vegetables was average.

There are also some lands in the suburbs near New York that are used to grow food and vegetables. However, due to the fact that no one has taken care of them for many years, the original crop fields and vegetable fields have long been overgrown with weeds, and it is difficult to tell whether they are vegetables or weeds.

That is, some crops such as corn are relatively easy to distinguish.

After a simple breakfast, Robert took Lu Cheng to his underground laboratory and handed Lu Cheng a white coat and a mask.

Fortunately, Robert was a military colonel and had the support of the military, so he was able to completely transform their home into this fortress before being quarantined in New York, and built a complete underground laboratory, and stored enough energy, water and various supplies.

After entering the laboratory and turning on the power, the entire basement immediately lit up.

He put on a white coat, turned on the computer, and began recording: "This is Dr. Robert. September 2012, 9. The GA-5 serum experiment begins. Animal experiment. Start recording..."

Then, Robert opened the cabinet that held various experimental mice and began to count the latest changes in these test subjects.

"1.3.4.8... has not changed significantly, still showing strong aggressiveness, the virus persists. 2.5.7.13... killed the host... Compound No. 6 showed lower aggressiveness, was sensitive to light, and the pupils contracted. The next plan is to conduct human experiments on Compound No. 391 of GA-..."

After completing the usual experimental records, Robert turned to look at Lu Cheng: "Lu, let me tell you about the experiment first. For three years, I have been using my own blood for experiments, looking for serum that can cure the virus. So far, I have conducted 391 sets of experiments, and obviously, all the previous ones have failed.

As for the results of this experiment, you can see that only compound No. 6 performed well, but that's all. However, we need to capture a night demon next to conduct human experiments on compound No. 6. By the way, we can also take a good look around New York City. "

"no problem."

In fact, according to the original plot of the movie, after the death of his beloved dog Sam, Robert wanted to die together with the Night Stalker, but was finally rescued by a mother and son. Inspired by the mother and son, he used ice to create a low-temperature environment for the Night Stalker and suppress the KV virus in the Night Stalker's body, so that Compound No. 6 could work successfully.

In other words, Robert is only one step away from finding the antidote.

Of course, those night demons who have developed intelligence may not want such an antidote, nor do they want to turn back into humans, because they have already regarded themselves as a new kind of life.

Afterwards, Lu Cheng and Robert packed their bags, took their weapons and equipment, and walked out of the safe house.

On the streets outside, there were abandoned vehicles, lush weeds, and dilapidated shops on both sides of the road.

The two first came to a video store, and Robert skillfully greeted the two dummies at the door of the store: "Hey, Maggie, hey Fred, your hat is really nice."

After entering the music store, Robert took out a CD from his backpack, walked to the shelf starting with the letter G, found the corresponding position, and reinserted the CD. He casually explained, "I usually come to this store to take CDs home to watch. I've already seen the ones starting with G... If you're interested, you can pick a few and take them home to watch. By the way, it's best to remember the corresponding positions so we can return them later."

"Thank you. I'll take a look first."

Living in such a doomsday, the entire city belongs to Robert alone. All supplies can be taken at any time without paying.

But Robert still insisted on repaying what he borrowed, and tried his best to maintain the city's original appearance, hoping that one day everything would return to normal and the city would return to its former prosperity and bustle.

Lu Cheng did not try to destroy it all, but just looked at everything around him casually. He couldn't help but start to imagine: If an ordinary person living in modern society, or himself who had never experienced time travel, suddenly came to such an empty city where he could go anywhere, what would the scene be like?

Would you collect the gold and jewelry that you want but cannot get? Or the guns and ammunition from the roadside gun shops? Or all kinds of famous brand watches? Luxury cars?

In fact, in such a world, no matter what you want, as long as you can take it, you can take it.

For example, there is an aircraft carrier docked at the South Street Port in New York, and there are carrier-based aircraft and bombers on board.

If Lu Cheng was interested, he could even find a military base, some heavy weapons that could still be used, and bomb a few aircraft carriers to see what happens.

Or, find the location of the US nuclear weapons and set off a few mushroom bombs to see how spectacular it would be.

After walking around the video store, Robert asked casually, "Lu, do you need to replenish your weapons and ammunition? I know a place that stores enough weapons to arm thousands of people..."
