MTL - Dangerous Survival in the Apocalypse-Chapter 56 56th

There are important changes in the previous chapter, which promised me to review the part starting from the "orientation party"

When she gathered at the door at seven in the morning, Shen Shi'an discovered that the military trucks inside the base were not three, but five. They were neatly parked in the open space outside the door, and the soldiers next to them were ready to go.

A tall man in camouflage took five soldiers also in camouflage to walk to the 27 survivors including Shen Shi'an and Chen Nan. This is the base to voluntarily join the garrison and go to the city. The total number of people searching for supplies in the district.

"First of all, everyone is welcome to join today ’s material search operation." The man sounds like Hong Zhong. "In order to prevent new people from not knowing me, let me introduce myself as the person in charge of the tobacco factory base and the chief commander of the search operation. You can call me Captain Luo. These five are the heads of the five search teams. After you are divided into groups, you can ask the team leader on the road if you have any questions. I only have one request for you, that is Obey the command, everything is subject to the command of the team leader. The team leader lets you do whatever you want, can you do it well? Remember, zombies are not terrible, as long as you keep calm and follow the command, we should all be able to come back alive. ready to go"

Shen Shi'an and Chen Nan were assigned to the first group. The leader of the group was Tao, called Tao Yuan, with thick eyebrows and baby eyes. They looked very young. After a brief introduction, they took them to the first truck. Commander Luo Wei also In this car, sit in the co-pilot position.

A total of 138 people participated in the search operation, which was distributed to about 25 people in each car.

As soon as the two of Shen Shi'an got into the car, a soldier whistled at them. "Is the newcomer who just arrived yesterday awesome enough weapons?"

Shen Shi'an's sword is obviously not an ordinary product, so other people didn't bother to say that they wanted to see it. They only borrowed Chen Nan's thorn stick to look carefully. It ’s like, but the colors do n’t match, and unless you have professional equipment, you ca n’t make metal so sharp. ”

Shen Shi'an had already told Chen Nan about this problem. "It's a mutant aloe thorn," said Chen Nandao. "I stumbled upon it on the way. It was probably affected by the virus and reached a height of ten meters. It took the old effort to chop off the thorn."

"Variant aloe thorns my obedient, then there must be hundreds or thousands of aloe thorns. Where can I see them far from here?"

When Chen Nan said that it was near Province A, the soldiers could hardly hide their regrets. "It would be better if we were closer. We all cut down and tied each one on a long stick to equip one each. It would be more powerful to kill the zombies." "

Chen Nan was puzzled. "Don't you have a gun?" The firearm is definitely better than aloe vera.

"The bullets are limited, so you do n’t have to use them. The captain said that you ca n’t fire unless there is a compelling emergency. And it ’s really time for melee combat,” said a soldier, knocking a saber on his belt. “It ’s still a cold weapon. That ’s good. By the way, my name is Niuquan, and you are welcome to join. ”These two look at them at first sight, and they need such people most.

The team leader Tao Yuan, who was sitting opposite, looked at the two of them. "So you are both Province A. Province A is not close to here. Why not join the security base nearby, and Qianliyu came here."

Shen Shi'an said, "We are going to Beijing. I have a family there."

To reunite with my family.

The atmosphere inside the truck changed almost instantly. The eyes focused on Shen Shi'an not only included understanding, support and admiration, but also obvious envy.

Shen Shi'an thought for a while to understand where this envy came from. According to the information he obtained, the tobacco factory base was formally established within the second week after the end of the last days. In terms of time, these soldiers are unlikely to have a chance to go home.

After the virus outbreak, almost all survivors are pinning their hopes on military rescue, expecting heavily armed soldiers to come over as soon as possible to rescue themselves and their families and **** them to a safe place.

Few people will remember that these soldiers also have family members. In this end-of-the-life disaster, their family members are also disaster victims, and they also need help urgently. However, unlike ordinary people, soldiers are restricted by military orders and cannot even rush home to confirm the safety of their families.

It is very difficult to be regarded as a savior, hope, and patron saint, but there is no way to protect them by the closest family members.

This alone is enough to make people respect them.

"Ah," Niu Quan took the lead to break the silence after a while. "Have you come all the way, have you encountered anything other than mutant aloe?"

Shen Shi'an nodded "variant goose."

After he described the mutated goose, everyone in the car began to drool. "Look, this goose is enough for us to eat for several days."

"What else, what else, are there any other mutant species?"

"Mutation of zombies."

"Mutant zombies are about the same speed as normal people, right? We know this, everywhere in the city."

Shen Shi'an took the opportunity to ask, "Is there a lot of mutated zombies in the city?"

"A lot, a lot, but less than ordinary zombies." Niu Quan thought about it. "About 20-30 percent, it's especially difficult to get together."

Twenty or thirty percent, much lower than Lin'an County. The city where the tobacco factory is located is called Qujiang City. It is a third-tier medium-sized city with a large area and a permanent population of about 4 million. After Shen Shi'an experienced the Lin'an County incident, there was a speculation that the more zombies gathered, the faster the evolution. The number of zombies in Qujiang City must have exceeded two million, but because of the vast area and the population density is not high, it is difficult to form the kind of tens of thousands of people on the county square that have become zombies at the same time, and have gathered together for a long time. Due to the special environment, the proportion of mutated zombies is lower than that of Lin'an County, which to a certain extent justifies Shen Shi'an's speculation.

Shen Shi'an thought for a while and then asked, "Have you ever encountered a power zombie?"

"Zombies" all focused their eyes. "What's the point, zombies can evolve abilities."

Shen Shi'an nodded, and briefly said what happened in Lin'an County Square, covering up his process of being invincible. "The zombie's ability was to form a wind blade in the air for a long-range attack. Three attacks were formed at a time, and the attack range was about 400 meters. If this is the only thing, it is not difficult to deal with, but the zombie ability They can also besiege other zombies. "

Waiting for no one else to respond, the commander Luo Wei, who was sitting in the co-pilot, turned his head and looked through the window with a dignified look. "You mean, the power zombie has wisdom and self-awareness."

"Yes, zombies controlled by \ 'have a unified brain, they will not be easily disturbed by noise and other factors, and they will also use tactics." Shen Shi'an Road "But the intelligence level of the power zombies is not high, Similar to lower mammals, and the number of zombies that can be controlled is limited. I speculate that it should be related to the degree of evolution. The higher the degree of evolution, the greater the number of zombies that can be controlled. The control limit we encountered was around 10,000 zombies. . "

The exhaust sounded one after another in the truck. "One manipulating 10,000 and wisdom will use tactics. How can this be done?"

"It's not only this that is terrible, isn't it okay? If the control of the number is related to the degree of evolution, as the cloud brother guessed, in case one of the zombie kings that can control millions of zombies evolves, then how do you fight? Brother Them "

"People haven't evolved their abilities, but the zombies have advanced and come out."

Shen Shi'an understood “So you have n’t encountered the power zombies”

Niuquan shook his head. "No, I'm going to suffer a lot from such an estimate."

Someone said, "Maybe there are very few zombies of this kind. There are a total of two or three in the country. It's impossible for us to just meet them."

"In any case, you must be more careful in your future actions." Luo Wei said to Shen Shi'an. "Thank you, this is a very important message."

After driving for more than forty minutes, the truck gradually entered Qujiang City. The driver was familiar with the road, and along the way, he could clearly notice that there were few live zombies, many zombies, and there was a mess like a ruin formed after the explosion every other distance.

After another half an hour along the main road, the truck stopped at Lowe's order.

Everyone got out of the car, dozens of zombies were sloshing around the road, heard the movement around, was cleared by the soldiers quickly and silently with a saber, and then formed a protective ring around the truck with a serious alert attitude.

Luo Wei rolled out a map on the front cover of an abandoned car. After the five team leaders passed around, he raised his hand and asked, "Brother Yun, Brother Chen, if you are interested, you can come and see."

The map is a detailed map of Qujiang City. Lowe first pointed to the current location of the crowd. "From the tobacco factory to here, we have collected this area, and the zombies have been resolved."

Then I drew a circle hundreds of meters away along the main road. "Today's goal is this mall. It is said to be the largest comprehensive shopping mall in Qujiang City, and it is also the place with the highest concentration of zombies in the urban area. For one, it is more difficult to break, but if we succeed, we will be fully loaded today. "

Luo Wei drew a circle along the same direction, about three hundred meters away from the mall. "Three groups and four groups, you take things to this point, what is the process? Everyone is familiar with it. Five groups go to nearby buildings." See if there are any survivors, come back within an hour to gather. The other groups are on standby temporarily. "

The three group leaders asked, "How long is the setting today still twenty minutes?"

Lowe thought about it. "There are many zombies near the mall. Let's set it for half an hour."

The leader of "Yes" turned around and gave the order "Survivors participating in the search operation stayed in place, the rest followed me."

A group of more than 50 people, carrying backpacks and weapons, hurried towards their destination and disappeared shortly after turning around the intersection.

Team leader Tao Yuan explained the specific plan to the survivors who participated in the operation for the first time. "The places where the three and four groups are going now are called burial sites. Their task is to set traps at the burial sites and bury timed bombs \ ' Use the audio, horn, blood and other tools to attract as many zombies near the mall as possible. After half an hour, the bomb will explode and the zombies will be cleaned up at once. "

"But," Chen Nan asked, "Willn't the explosion attract more zombies? The burial site is only a few hundred meters away from the mall. If there are too many zombies gathered twice, they may run to the mall." "

Tao Yuan nodded "Yes, so after the first explosion, three groups of four will bury a second time bomb, the time is also half an hour."

Chen Nan's first explosion brought all the zombies within the range of the sound of the explosion. At this time, a second explosion will not only destroy the zombies, but also will not attract more zombies.

Shen Shian asked "you should not use this method for the first time" so that you can explain the ruins after the explosion.

"This is the fourth time," Tao Yuan explained. "Because the stock of explosives is limited, it will only be used when it comes to big targets like shopping malls."

That's it. This method will undoubtedly be able to clear out a large number of zombies most quickly and conveniently, which greatly reduces the risk of action, so many survivors can't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Tao Yuan frowned, and the doll's face was very serious. "Although there are explosives, there is no guarantee that the search operation will be safe. There may be zombies staying around the mall without being attracted by the sound, or they may be attracted by the explosion. Zombies completely exceeded expectations, and bombs could not be completely destroyed and turned around the mall. In short, all accidents may occur, so be careful when you act, and move quickly in and out. Since everyone chooses to participate in the operation, I'm afraid no one wants to die here because of carelessness. If you want to return to the base safely with your supplies, give me 12 points. "

The survivors looked for a moment, and breathed back the breath that had just been released.

Chen Nan asked, "What shall we do now?"

"Wait."

Forty minutes later, the first explosion sounded loudly. Ten minutes later, all members of the three groups and four groups returned. After nearly half an hour, the sound of the second explosion echoed repeatedly in the building complex.

Lowe gives instructions to "depart"
