"This crossbow is so ruthless!"

"Not really! Directly pierced the zombie's head! ”

"God, this recoil is almost catching up with those big-caliber guns!"

A few people looked out from the firing port, Li Tie and the others were trying out their newly improved weapon, and it seemed to be working really well.

Under Luo Xun's Jian, Yan Fei changed the caliber of these crossbows and increased the length of the crossbow body to make them more lethal. Crossbow arrows have also been modified to make them more destructive, but due to the weather, most of them are not filled with mushroom juice.

After a few people's practice, the improved crossbow arrows that were not loaded with mushroom juice were enough to deal with zombies of normal size, and the ones that were added were just right to shoot those super big ones!

Hearing the heavy footsteps of the zombies outside getting louder and louder, Luo Xun got up and walked to the window and looked out a few times, seeing that there were several large zombies that had been beaten to the ground and couldn't get up, so he smiled and said to a few people: "How is it?" This kind of zombie is not difficult to fight, right? ”

He Qiankun nodded excitedly: "Mmmm! This thing just looks scary! ”

That's because it's not a siege now, and it's freezing and it's freezing that they're all so cold that it's inconvenient to move. If it is placed in the summer, these zombies stand far away from the battle circle, and cooperate with other long-range zombies to keep throwing big stones, broken bricks, and small zombies over, and see that they still don't feel easy to deal with? Even if they don't attack from a distance, once they accelerate and run and crash into the wall, it's enough for the person on the wall to drink.

Luo Xun didn't say such a frustrating thing, but after the big guys vaguely realized that this sleek metal "egg" didn't seem to be easy to deal with, they began to fight back. They stiffly bend down, pick up whatever is around them, and throw them here with all their might.

Most of the time they throw over are large and small pieces of snow, and sometimes they will also throw a lot of buried bricks and rotten wood that are caught from under the snow, and they are more likely to grab the arms or legs of the zombies around them casually, and treat them as garbage without looking at them.

From the moment they first bent down, Luo Xun asked everyone to step back and asked Yan Fei to erect a metal baffle in front of the small window. Listening to the sound of ping-pong on the metal wall, everyone secretly rejoiced - fortunately, when Yan Fei repaired this roof, the outer wall was very smooth and hard enough. Even if you are dropped by those zombies, you will shake them casually, and those things that are zombies or something will slide into the traps around them, and quickly decay with the help of mushroom juice.

"Do you want to find a way to kill them?" Listening to these sounds of banging on the wall, Xu Mei was a little worried.

Luo Xun smiled: "It's okay, don't worry about them, let them be thrown away." Seeing that everyone looked at him in amazement, Luo Xun just spread his hands and said helplessly, "What will they throw away after they throw away all the garbage around them?" ”

Everyone looked at him blankly and puzzledly. Suddenly, Yan Fei laughed, and turned his head to look at the small window that was not blocked: "There are more and more zombies gathered here." ”

"Huh?" Everyone still couldn't understand what the two of them meant, Zhang Su suddenly rolled his eyes, and slapped Wang Duo on the back of the head: "Throw zombies, it's still remote." ”

Zombies don't have much intelligence when they reach the top level, but they seem to be well aware of their strengths and abilities when it comes to combat. For example, if they don't have abilities, they will find a way to catch up with their targets, or they will work tirelessly to destroy obstacles in front of them and grab the "food" behind them.

But if it's a zombie at level 2 or higher and already has an ability, they will start using their ability to attack. Melee fighters will definitely find ways to use abilities to try to catch up with their targets. The ranged ones will stand far away to throw abilities, shoot cold guns, and even some weird zombies have learned to fly kites - only their targets are humans.

Every time Luo Xun and the others go out to fight zombies, the headache is never the zombies who rush forward directly into the traps and fire pits, but the zombies who stand far away and put cold guns. Especially after lighting a fire in the trap, if you want to destroy those zombies, you have to look beyond the flames to carefully identify their location......

With a "bang", another zombie was thrown over, smashing into a certain side of the metal wall's dome, and it spewed out a mouthful of flames as it slipped from the wall into the trap - well done! I'm just going to throw them all over!

Yan Fei strengthened and repaired the metal roof after a while. Song Lingling manipulated the melted mushroom juice to make it continue to drip from the pipe into the trap, corroding the zombies with puffs of white smoke.

The zombies whose physique has become alienated and become huge are still tirelessly throwing the things that can be thrown around them in the direction where everyone is. Luo Xun and the others were worried that if the other party threw too much garbage, it might fill the traps around them, so after thinking about it for a while, they decided to let Xu Mei remotely operate the flames and melt all the snow around those three-meter-tall zombies. Then let Xiao Xinran directly sand away those large pieces of garbage.

At level 3, the range of the ability became farther out, making it easier for them to manipulate these non-offensive abilities.

When all the garbage around the giants is gone, all they can catch is their companions......

All night, the sound of "hooping" on the metal roof never stopped. Luo Xun and the others took turns sleeping all night under this accompaniment, until the next morning it was confirmed that there would be no more zombies coming for the time being, and the traps outside were almost all filled with zombies and their rotting corpses, and even some of the big guys in the place where there were no small zombies began to grab each other and wanted to throw them over (unfortunately the result of this often caused the same consequences as wrestling, and several zombies rolled together and couldn't get up), so they poured gasoline into the trap - ignition!!

The feast of the fire-roasted zombies was staged again, and fierce red tongues of fire danced in all directions of the temporary base, and Zhang Su once again began to breathe air in the semicircular building and provide oxygen to the fire burning in the trap outside.

Listening to the occasional sound of the little pitifuls being thrown by the big zombies hitting the wall outside, Luo Xun and the others were talking and laughing inside, while taking out the materials to prepare for lunch.

"According to today's situation, if the base does not limit the number of people who go out in the future, we can also occasionally come out to fight monsters, as long as it doesn't take too long, it's not a big problem." Luo Xun said and looked at Zhang Su and Xu Mei.

Li Tie: They usually need to go to work, and they can only have one chance to come out once a month. But Zhang traced Xu Mei, but they didn't need it.

And judging from today's situation - after the zombies' mobility is reduced, everyone will inevitably not gain too much every time they come out, and if you want to provide a sufficient number of crystal nuclei for the team's abilities to use, you will inevitably need to come out a few more times.

"I'm okay with that." Zhang Su raised an eyebrow on one side, or he wished he had a few more bases.

Xu Mei and Song Lingling also glanced at each other, and the two ladies nodded: "No problem, uh...... However we may need to take a few days off each month......"

When the two ladies said this, their faces were slightly uncomfortable and blushed, Luo Xun didn't react for a while, but Zhang Su waved his hand and said: "It's not that you have to come out every day, you can grow vegetables at home when you can't come out." ”

Luo Xun came back to his senses and said with a smile: "No problem, except for this time at the end of each month, we usually come out once or twice a month at most, and the number of times will not be too much." "Ladies have problems that ladies need to pay attention to, not to mention that the results of this problem every month will be very attractive to zombies, and I don't know how their noses grow, anyway, if there are women who go out to the base during menstruation, there will definitely be zombies who will tirelessly chase the bloody gas.

The crackling sound of burning, the fire in the trap burned all morning. Everyone waited for the long-range zombies on the periphery to be almost thrown by the big zombies of more than three meters, and then they shot the big guys and the scattered small zombies around them remotely in the gap where the fire was getting smaller.

After finally getting these things done, the place centered on the metal shield stood out in the white ice and snow......

Everyone began to collect crystal nuclei, and Luo Xun stood at the gate and looked outside, not knowing what he was thinking.

After Yan Fei dealt with the trap and the wall, he walked over and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"I'm wondering how to restore this place...... Luo Xun pondered, his eyes scanning back and forth between the snow and the ground that was no longer a trace of snow.

"Let Zhang Su blow some snow around?" Yan Fei helped him come up with ideas.

"Hmm...... Let's see the results...... That's right! Luo Xun's eyes lit up and he called Song Lingling on the side, "How small can you make the water droplets?" ”

"Be small??" Song Lingling had a question mark on her head, and raised her finger to make a standard-sized drop of water.

"No matter how small, preferably as small as a snowflake!"

Song Lingling had practiced before, increasing the speed of water, the strength of water arrows, and making the water droplets as small as possible.

After many times, Song Lingling can also make water droplets the size of a large needle nose, but the small Xiaoice particles that this water droplet becomes after making it are not snowflakes of different shapes, even if there are some small cracks and irregular shapes on it, but after all, it is still a little far from the real snowflake. However, it is barely used for covering, and it is no problem to let Zhang Su blow some normal snow from nearby.

After tidying up the place where they had stayed, everyone withdrew from here and parked their things and sleds on snowdrifts not far away. Song Lingling began to make tiny ice particles, and Zhang Su assisted her in sprinkling the crushed ice evenly onto the place where they had landed before, and when the crushed ice covered a certain height, Zhang Su blew over the loose snowflakes nearby and splashed them equally evenly.

"Don't say it, although you can still see the difference if you look closely, the effect is no different from real snow." Xu Mei bent down to carefully observe the broken ice particles not far away that were not yet covered by real snow. Because these things are so small, they really look like real ice and snow from a distance.

Song Lingling clenched her fists: "I will work hard!" Be sure to make snowflakes that are no different from real snow! ”

But the problem is that even if she can make similar droplets, she usually doesn't have much use except for the winter when she uses them as cover! Oh, of course, other times she can also pretend to make the effect of rain, but ...... Or is this problem, even if it is made, what is the use other than being able to rain and water?

Climb back into your homemade sleigh and ride the waves, stopping at regular intervals to heat up the water in the car and continue to ride the waves......

Finally, when it was completely dark, they returned to the place where they had hidden the car.

After clearing the snow on it, Yan Fei restored several cars to their original state, and everyone quickly stuffed the dismantled sled cars into the cars...... So, after ten o'clock in the evening, the group finally entered the gate of the base.

handed in two hundred first-class crystal nuclei, drove the car with some difficulty on the road that was still full of ice and snow, and when everyone returned to the corridor on the fifteenth floor, the time had passed silently past eleven o'clock......

"Come, take everyone's respective crystal nucleus, and put this one in the common crystal nucleus of the team." After Luo Xun finished explaining the last thing, he almost hung himself on Yan Fei's body and asked him to slowly climb to the sixteenth floor with him. "It's really cold today...... "When I went out yesterday, the temperature outside slowly rose from low to high, although it didn't rise much, but it didn't freeze people's bones and hurt. But when they came back today, it was getting late and it was getting colder and colder outside, and when they came back, they all felt the cold wind burrowing into their hats and masks from around their glasses. If it weren't for the plumbing in the modified sleigh they were sitting on, someone would have been frozen on their way back today!

"Get home and take a hot shower." Yan Fei's hand passed under Luo Xun's ribs and almost carried him upstairs.

"Well, let's renovate the plumbing in the car before going out next time, anyway, we have to turn on electricity, so just let the electricity heat the water in the metal, and save yourself from having to stop and heat the water after a while." The temperature in the corridor was like being in heaven for Luo Xun and them at this time. Thinking about being able to take a hot and comfortable hot bath after returning home for a while, the anticipation in Luo Xun's eyes was even stronger!

So, after Yan Fei opened the door of his house, Luo Xun naturally walked in first, ready to rush into the bathroom to heat the water heater, but the result was ...... was directly hit by a "monster" with a light bulb and black eyes......

"Whew! Stinky dog, get out of the way! The hot big tongue licked Luo Xun's face very unceremoniously, why is he so stupid? Forgot that there is such a dog at home?!

With a "snap", Yan Fei turned on the light next to the door and reached out to pull up Luo Xun, who was thrown to the ground by the extremely excited little guy.

Dragging the stinky dog into the house and throwing it aside, Luo Xun had a chance to rush into the bathroom to get hot water.

The qiē at home is quite normal, put the little quail that has just hatched in the past two days back into the glass box, Yan Fei observed the situation of the animals and plants in the house before returning to the living room to open the crystal nucleus that the two of them had assigned and checked it slightly.

"There are really not many crystal nuclei this time." Luo Xun has already taken off his coat and is taking off his pants to change into pajamas. After they finished counting the crystal nuclei, each person only got about a thousand pieces this time. Of course, the proportion of second- and third-level students is much higher than before, and higher than the last time we went to the north of the city together.

"Well, but we can consider contacting Captain Wang again and replacing it with some metal-based crystal nuclei." Yan Fei counted it and confirmed the number of metal-based crystal nuclei that were distributed to him this time. The number of metal-based zombies is still too small, and the crystal nuclei they hit are even less when the base number of crystal nuclei they hit is low.

"Well, of course I have to change it, but at least until the day after tomorrow." Luo Xun rubbed his somewhat red fingers, when he came back today, he obviously had leather gloves on his hands, and there was an oversized pair of cotton gloves on top of the leather gloves, but his fingers were still frozen red.

Yan Fei pulled him to sit beside him and helped him rub his hands together. Seeing this, the little guy on the side unceremoniously ran onto the sofa in a few steps and forcibly stuffed the dog's head into Luo Xun's arms - begging to be touched.

"I've wronged you." Luo Xun rubbed the dog's head in a good mood, the two of them came back late today, and the little guy estimated that he had been wronged enough to wait at home in the past two days.

After the water at home was heated, Yan Fei took people to the bathtub where the water was put for a mandarin duck bath. By the time they had thoroughly showered, there was no dry place on the floor of the bathroom...... Ahem, after a hard time, the two of them hurriedly went back upstairs and slept comfortably on the big bed that was enough for the two of them to roll and play on it.

Early the next morning, there was no doubt that all the team members got up late, and Li Tie even had a little astringent nose, so Xu Mei and the others discussed it and decided to make a big pot of hot duck soup. The Chinese cabbage at home has been being produced in batches recently, but unfortunately the fans are running out...... Of course, there are still some white noodles at home, which are all changed back one after another after the base has not replaced the old grain, and you can make some hand-rolled noodles and noodles to eat.

"It's okay, it's just frozen, it's not viral." Zhang Su is a surgeon, but in addition to not having much in-depth knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine, he can also see such internal medicine diseases.

Li Tie nodded and put on the mask, although it is not contagious, let alone viral, but what if it is contagious? He'd better be careful, there's still a child at home.

The hot soup pot simmered for a full hour, and Xu Mei and Song Lingling also made some other stir-fried dishes, such as fried tomatoes with quail eggs, such as roasted eggplant or something.

Generally speaking, the otaku squad will get together for a meal every once in a while, and today is noon for this kind of small dinner event.

Everyone chatted while eating, and Luo Xun said to Zhang Su and them: "I think if you want to go out, it's best to go out once in the near future, but it depends on whether the base will change the rules for going out of the city in the near future." ”

"We can only wait, after all, we can't force our way out." Yan Fei persuaded him, although it was best for them to go out before the second snow, but the current situation was very difficult.

It's not uncommon for a very small group to occasionally ask to leave the city, but in that case, the base is generally reluctant to let them go, unless it's the kind of person who is going to go to other places to look for relatives with their own things and is not ready to come back in the short term. Those who forcibly asked to leave would still be asked to pay an "entry fee" before entering the base if they returned. Although the base does not recognize this name, everyone knows what this entrance fee means.

It is said that other bases also have this system, but the requirements are higher, all the materials carried with them when entering the city must be inspected, verified, and registered, and after a certain amount, all people entering the city must pay more than half of the materials on their bodies before entering. If the amount of supplies you carry does not reach a certain amount, you will not be allowed to enter the door at all.

The topic was far away, Luo Xun shook his head: "Pay attention to listening to the radio and short breath, anyway, it is estimated that there will be such a day sooner or later." ”

Zhang Su ate the duck meat in his bowl and fished out another piece: "I'll call and ask later, maybe there can be any inside information." ”

"Inside information?" Luo Xun rummaged through the spoon a few times, but scooped up two pieces of frozen tofu in one go...... Well, this is the difference between people, in terms of grabbing food, it is estimated that no one among all the people present can grab Zhang Su's goods.

"Hmm." Zhang Su responded, but did not explain specifically. However, he must know more people than anyone else present, plus he also has a girlfriend from the top of the base, so maybe he can find out something?

After lunch, Zhang Su really made a phone call to his best friend, and got the result that everyone was very curious about - wait for two more days, and the base should issue an official notice. So this news must be true.

Now what Luo Xun and they are looking forward to is - God, you must not snow these days!

Of course, looking forward to going out again is for sure, who let them go out this time to harvest a less than ideal number of crystal nuclei? But when you go out and go out, you still have to be busy at home.

Early the next morning, Luo Xun and the others got up much earlier than the previous day, packed up their own vegetables, pulled a cart and sent them to the barracks canteen. Because the two of them no longer work here, they felt a little emotional when they came over this time. However, the place where the food was delivered was far away from the location of the metal ability team, and they probably didn't have a chance to run into it.

Send the vegetables to the cafeteria and chat with Captain Li here. After that, the two drove to the place where the supplies were exchanged and found Captain Wang.

Captain Wang was still surprised to learn that the two were going to change the crystal nucleus again, after all, they had just changed it once two days ago. But maybe they've changed some crystal nuclei in the past two days, right?
