Volume 1 The Last Days 022 New Mission
It's been more than a year since the cataclysm broke out, but fortunately, the roads in the United States are of good quality and are basically smooth, except for the roads that are full of damaged vehicles. However, in front of the convoy was the M1A1 main battle tank, which relied on his huge body and strong horsepower to make a way on the road.
As we get closer to the city of Jinshan, more and more zombies appear on both sides of the road, some of which are already loitering near the road, and some are attracted by the roar of vehicles and the explosion of shells fired by tanks and other armed vehicles. In the face of these targets, Ye Hao ordered not to cherish the ammunition, just to take the opportunity to train the soldiers' hit rate. As a result, the roar of the cannons in the convoy became more diligent, and later other armed men armed with guns joined in the hunt for zombies.
Before the cataclysm, the highway was an interstate highway in the United States, and the Bay Area, where Jinshan City is located, is one of the metropolitan areas on the west coast of the United States, which is a densely populated area, and small towns appear on both sides of the highway from time to time. In addition, there are gas stations on the side of the highway from time to time, but the gas station has long been looted by people and it is almost impossible to leave food and food inside. In the dilapidated gas station, many wandering zombies can be seen, including survivors who came to ransack the gas station, and unfortunately they were left here forever.
As they gradually entered the core area of Jinshan City, zombies began to appear in groups, the atmosphere in the convoy slowly became solemn, and the sound of gunfire had long since stopped.
Ye Hao is no longer a rookie, although it has not been in the end of the world for a long time, it has already experienced several battles. Especially in the process of breaking out of the Maple Leaf base, he killed T4 with spiritual ability among hundreds of T2T3, so it can be said that he has experienced a big scene. In addition, Ye Hao has also watched a lot of movies about zombies, and the dense zombies in the movie screen give people the feeling that they are just shocking.
But when you are really in this situation, you don't feel that way, you are more replaced by fear. The feeling of numbness in the scalp and cold hands and feet all over the body will definitely make you feel suffocated.
Because, in front of you is a sea of zombies, boundless.
Jinshan City is located in the plain, due to the relationship between the end of the world with the atmosphere of the wasteland, groups of zombies wander in the wasteland. Standing on the top of the car, both sides of the highway are full of zombies who have heard the sound, the zombies have sensitive hearing, and farther away, more zombies are also agitated, rushing towards the black waves and the convoy on the road.
Natasha and the others, who had originally gathered in the command car to chat, left one after another and returned to their posts, they had survived in the last days for more than a year, and they all had rich experience in dealing with zombies. Even Dr. Tesla went out to appease the people in the Civil Department, but in just a few minutes, in addition to Ye Hao, there were only two people in the command car, the driver and Jessica. The driver is Jimmy, a security guard under Natasha, who was a retired special forces soldier before the cataclysm, and now serves as Ye Hao's bodyguard and driver. Jessica had nowhere else to go but to stay in the command vehicle.
The armed men of the convoy raised their weapons one after another, and everyone couldn't help but have a powerless thought after seeing the large number of listings. Although the vast majority of the zombies they face are only T1, after the zombies you face hit an unimaginable number, everyone will have that feeling of insecurity and discouragement.
At this time, Barnes, who had already drilled into the first M1A1 main battle tank in front of the convoy, was worried that some rookies in the convoy would shoot indiscriminately, and shouted with the megaphone equipped with the tank: "Don't be nervous, as long as our convoy does not stop, there is no way for zombies to attack us." As the captain of the armored detachment, Barnes did not hesitate to use his position to consider himself the commander of a tank, in his words: a tank is a man, the best weapon!
Hearing Barnes's shout, Ye Hao quickly calmed down, and he also gave an order through the loudspeaker of the command vehicle: "Everyone listen, no one is allowed to shoot without my order!"
Ye Hao has dealt with zombies a few times, and he knows very well that the sound of the vehicle's engine can certainly attract the gathered zombies, but the sound of guns can lead to high-level mutant zombies, and the mutant zombies have an instinctive reaction to the sound of gunfire, and they can quickly capture and determine the source of the sound.
Now the zombies are not able to attack the humans on the vehicle, even if there are zombies on the road, as long as their number is not very large, with the performance of the M1A1 main battle tank, using the huge weight and strong horsepower, the zombies can be directly knocked into the air, crushed under the track and rushed out of a road.
Only some of the millions of zombies in Jinshan City poured out of the city, and with the population around the city, it was impossible to fill all the places. There are no zombies in some places, which brings some convenience to the convoy, and when it is close to the urban area of Jinshan, the urban buildings that gradually appear make the number of zombies more dense. At these places, the sound of the vehicle's engine becomes a source of attraction for zombies, and the team has to find a place where there are no zombies to stop and discuss a solution.
Ye Hao met with Natasha, Barnes, Lawrence, and James, and after a brief discussion, Ye Hao concluded: "Ordinary zombies can use speed to get rid of them, and if they can't get rid of them, the M1A1 main battle tank will be directly crushed." T1T2 could all be killed by small arms, and Barnes' armored detachment was mainly aimed at T3. As for t4...... Let's hope we'll be so unlucky, if T4 is discovered, Barnes, your task is to delay its actions and leave it to me to solve. Is it clear to everyone?"
Due to the urgency of time, Ye Hao saw that everyone nodded in agreement, and did not waste time and let everyone disperse.
Ye Hao returned to the command car and took out a Barrett sniper rifle, which Ye Hao specially asked David to prepare. Barrett sniper rifle is a heavy special sniper rifle developed by Barrett Company on Beautiful Street, this type of sniper rifle has a long range and great power and other excellent performance, the gun weighs 11.36 kg, the whole field is 1.28 meters, the ammunition supply mode is ten rounds, and the effective range reaches 1800 meters.
The last time he broke through from the Maple Leaf base, Ye Hao used an electromagnetic rifle to shoot down a T4, but the range of the electromagnetic rifle was relatively short, so when he returned to the real world to buy an armored vehicle, Ye Hao specially told David to help him get a brand new Barrett sniper rifle. With this sniper rifle, even the T4's body is extremely hard, and once it is hit in a vital part, it is difficult to escape death. Moreover, the range of the Barrett sniper rifle is relatively long, Ye Hao does not need to get close to the dangerous distance of one or two hundred meters like last time, he can completely wait for T4 to get close to 1000 meters and kill him.
With the current physique of Ye Hao's second-level gene body five times that of ordinary people, it is a piece of cake to quickly master and familiarize himself with the Barrett sniper rifle. He fixed himself on the roof of the command vehicle and began to practice marksmanship with the zombies on the periphery of the convoy. After five bullets, Ye Hao could shatter the head of a zombie with every shot.
The journey went quite smoothly, the T4 that Ye Hao was worried about did not appear, and the occasional T3 was also wiped out under Barnes's attack.
Dozens of kilometers down, the convoy passed safely through the central area of Jinshan City, in front of them is San Jose, the famous Silicon Valley is located in San Jose, as long as it bypasses San Jose again, the convoy will leave the core area of Jinshan Bay Area.
At this time, Ye Hao's mind remembered the voice of the system unwilling to be lonely: "The host has arrived safely in the Silicon Valley area, and now the main mission three is released: Shortly before the cataclysm, Dr. Slan, the former chief systems engineer of IBM, invented the first artificial intelligence of Blue Star. Due to the outbreak of the cataclysm, Dr. Slan has not had time to release this sensational news, and Dr. Slan is currently trapped and waiting for rescue. Host Mission: Save Dr. Slan and get the AI. If the mission fails, the host will be wiped out!"
"Damn, here we go again. Ye Hao was speechless.
……………………………………………………
Silicon Valley is located in the north of California, USA, in the south of the Bay Area of Jinshan City, and is another name for the Santa Clara Valley of California, where high-tech businesses gather. The main part of Silicon Valley is located in Santa Clara County in the southern part of the Golden Mountain Peninsula, mainly in the county's Palo Alto City, a 25-mile long valley from the county to San Jose, and the total area generally includes parts of San Mateo County in the southwest Jinshan Bay Area, and some cities in Alameda County in the Bay Area of East Jinshan City. It was originally a place where silicon-based semiconductor chips were researched and produced, hence the name.
Silicon Valley is the kingdom of Bluestar's electronics industry and computer industry, and although the United States and other Bluestar high-tech districts are growing, Silicon Valley is still a pioneer in high-tech technology innovation and development, with venture capital in the region accounting for one-third of the total venture capital in the United States, and Silicon Valley's computer companies have grown to about 1,500. A century ago it was an orchard, but since the headquarters of high-tech companies such as Intel, Apple, Google, Facebook, and Yahoo, it has become a bustling town. In just over a hundred years, Silicon Valley has produced countless tech billionaires.
Silicon Valley's location is characterized by some of the top universities in the United States with strong research capabilities nearby, including Stanford University and the University of California, Berkeley, as well as several other UC campuses and Santa Clara University. Silicon Valley is based on a group of high-tech small and medium-sized companies, and has Google, Facebook, HP, Intel, Apple, Cisco, Oracle, Tesla, Yahoo and other large companies, integrating science, technology and production.
Ye Hao took the telescope and lay in the grass to observe the buildings opposite, the situation was not so bad, for more than a year, many zombies were either rushing towards the center of the town, or scattered around the city, and even some zombies appeared more than ten kilometers away from the town's residence.
Behind him was a carefully selected group of armed men, who had rested for half an hour, had eaten food and water, and were quickly back to their peak strength.
Ye Hao and this team of armed men came to save Dr. Silan, he did not drive an armored vehicle over, but used the team to infiltrate Silicon Valley, also out of safety considerations. Although Silicon Valley is not as crowded with millions of zombies as Jinshan City, there are still hundreds of thousands of zombies as a bustling town. If he entered Silicon Valley with great fanfare, the team was likely to be wiped out, so Ye Hao selected a team of elite personnel to follow him into Silicon Valley, and the team found a safe place to hide.
"Now let's assign the task: Jimmy, you find a high point, and snipe the high-level zombies that we notice or appear from a distance. Lawrence, your task is relatively heavy, see that the six-story building at the intersection is not there? After a while, you lead people to place a large number of high-explosive and explosives in the building, and we will retreat from there, and it will be up to you to stop a large number of zombies at that time. Barnes, it's up to you to attract zombies, be clever and back in the event of danger. When I enter the building, you should find a safe place to hide, and when I come out, I will contact you, and then you will meet me. Do you understand?"
After the task was assigned, and finding that everyone had no objections, Ye Hao and Barnes set off and walked towards the building.
According to the system, the building originally belonged to IBM's Silicon Valley production base. Dr. Slan was trapped on the second basement floor of the building.
In the security room at the entrance of the building, a uniformed security zombie was circling nearby, Barnes under Ye Hao's signal, after gently getting closer, he picked up the M16 automatic rifle and aimed, after a slight gunshot, the security zombie's head was shot through and fell to the ground. This shot barely alarmed the other zombies. With a successful blow, Barnes made an OK gesture and quietly moved forward, and in a few breaths, he had reached the door of the security room. Barnes observed and made sure there were no zombies nearby, then waved behind him and bent his knees on alert. His task is to be on guard at the door after Ye Hao enters the building, and if there are zombies wandering over, he will attract the zombies to other places.
Ye Hao came to Bass's side, took a deep breath and said, "Okay, Barnes, I'll leave the rest to me." Ye Hao's purpose for coming here was not to tell anyone else, but he simply explained that there was a task that must be completed. Dr. Tesla, Natasha and others didn't ask much and supported Ye Hao's actions.
Barnes didn't say much, nodded his head and signaled Ye Hao to be careful, and then hid near the security room.
Entering the building, there was a welcome hall with a foul stench, the walls and furniture covered in jet-black blood, and the occasional decomposing corpse and bones.
