Chapter 219: See the Strange Zombie Again!
The next day, Qin Shen and the others set off again.
Not only did they set off in the third squad, but the entire blue wolf team, nearly twenty people with special abilities, and fifty ordinary people who were used as laborers, went to the Xinyue Hotel together.
A convoy of five trucks roamed the empty streets. The sky was overcast, and the heavy air was dead beside him, but it seemed as if he could stand up and whist violently at any moment.
Broken windows, dilapidated houses, still in their original places, days, months, years, centuries without moving. Although the recent heavy rains have washed them away, in the eyes of those who come to them and leave without stopping, the dust accumulated on them can bury a pyramid.
No one spoke. The potion is like stopping water to shield the smell of people, and the most attractive thing for zombies is any sound. Silence is the basic code of conduct outside the base. Even the vehicles are relatively quiet under the control of skilled drivers. Five lifeless lumps of iron, as silent as a living person.
But this street by street is not. They themselves are quiet, lifeless, dead. Thankfully, they don't decay, so that the footsteps of the living dead will be delayed a little.
However, if there are people in the car who have been on a mission a month or two ago and have never left the base since, I am afraid that they will be surprised by the cleanliness of the streets. The mess left behind by the panicked fleeing people at the end of the world has now been replaced by the cleanliness of the fallen leaves. Some of the roads that were originally narrower turned out to be much wider.
However, today's task is not trivial, and the Blue Wolf team has specially selected fifty veterans who have been on many missions. So no one praises the cleanliness of the streets. Rather, it wasn't long after. When they came across the clutter that had been gathered together, they were really relieved.
"The zombies didn't come here."
Bai Wei said softly. He was sitting in the carriage with the windows closed, so he could speak.
"It's only a twenty-minute drive from the base." Xiao Cheng stared at the front with his eyes, "If the zombies can break through the two lines of defense in just half a month to get here, then even if they find the USB flash drive, it won't help." ”
That's right, these abandoned vehicles were collected by various teams and piled up at various crossings to act as barricades to block zombies.
Even across the city, the zombies are like they have a heart. Automatically and consciously move closer to the direction where the base is located. Fortunately, the base is located in a corner of Jing'an City. The entire city of Jing'an is again under the protection of the ancient city wall. Otherwise, the feeling of being besieged by zombies at 360 degrees should not be too sour.
"I don't know how long we'll live."
Bai Wei said with a slight smile.
Ordinary people got out of the car and pushed away the specially set up barricades, and the convoy was able to go along.
After another nearly thirty minutes of boring marching, the first roar was heard from afar.
There was no one in the car talking. No one even looked nervous. Only the tight body exposes their affection.
The Strangers cheered up the spirit. Observe your surroundings cautiously.
The streets are still quiet. Only seven or eight zombie corpses lay aside. That's what they killed yesterday. They were just zombies left in the surrounding buildings, shriveled enough to pass off as excavated artifacts. Due to the limited manpower, the base has never been able to carry out a dragnet investigation of the "recovered" area. In a situation like this, two pop up today and three pop up tomorrow, the team members have long been used to it.
The key is the roaring zombie. Listening to the movement looks like a high-level zombie, and it's likely that it has evolved an ability.
Qin Shentong said on the walkie-talkie and softly gave an order to Xiao Cheng, who was walking in the front: "Stay away from that direction." ”
Xiao Cheng then turned the steering wheel and led the convoy into a road next to him.
This is a longer distance from the hotel.
Qin Shen's palms were slightly sweaty. He can't be 100% sure that his choice is the right one.
About five minutes later, there was a shout of zombies in the direction they had just left. It's like a big bunch of chicks have been bitten by wolves. It's just that "chickens" and "wolves" are zombies.
While everyone breathed a sigh of relief, their hearts also hung in the air.
Zombies also eat zombies, but it's less common, and this predation mostly occurs between zombies with great evolutionary disparities. The mother and daughter zombies had evolved the lowest IQ before, so the zombies in the underground supermarket of the shopping mall were used as food by them.
People were glad to have left the land of right and wrong in time, but they were worried that the zombies who didn't know how to evolve were only a few steps away from them.
Fortunately, the Xinyue Hotel is already in sight.
The drivers turned off the ignition and let the vehicle use inertia to slide forward. When they get to their destination, they don't have to drive anymore, and the chances of attracting the zombies' attention are much smaller.
Not long after the living left, two low-level zombies that had barely evolved limped out of the alley. Although the zombies were expressionless, the humans who looked at them from a distance clearly found the label of "escape" on their faces.
A tall figure came out of the alley, three meters tall, its stone-like skin against the gloomy sky.
I saw him open his mouth, and the deafening roar immediately made the whole world tremble!
The living covered their ears, but some still had blood coming out of their piercings.
But the roar is not the most terrifying. At the same moment that the zombie opened its mouth, the ground in front of him suddenly cracked, and quickly spread forward to the feet of the two zombies. Although the rift is not deep, it is enough to trip over zombies with inflexible legs.
Earth-based abilities!
The bluestone zombie walked towards the two zombies who fell to the ground, and the ground trembled with each step, and the rift grew. Finally, he stepped on one of the zombies. The place where the unlucky guy was stepped on suddenly flattened a lot. The bluestone zombie bent down, grabbed the zombie's head with both hands, and then stood up.
The zombie's head was pulled off the neck like this.
Even if they are accustomed to seeing zombies and life and death, many people sitting in the car have pale faces.
The bluestone zombie opened its mouth. The mouth, which had been normal, widened little by little, until the cheeks cracked, the jaw dislocated, and the red mouth spewed a burning stench, until the mouth was big enough to swallow an adult's head.
Soon, another low-level zombie was also enjoyed by him. He raised his head, like a python's big mouth, with two black bean-like eyes, and from a distance, it was the same as a python's.
Keeping an eye in the direction of the living leaving.
The streets were empty, and at most a few moth-eaten leaves had been swept up by the damp wind.
The bluestone zombie didn't move for a while.
If he had enough intelligence, he should be confused by now. I heard a slight sound just now, it should have come from the living person he liked to eat the most.
Thankfully, he doesn't have that much intelligence. So he just stood there stiffly. The activity of other zombies or living people will quickly attract it away. Or before long, he himself will wander aimlessly.
But before that, a loud noise suddenly came from the direction of Xinyue Hotel, which immediately attracted his attention. (To be continued......)
