Chapter 826: Never back down
"Mr. Zhang, are you ...... What happened to you? ”
"It's nothing, it's just remembering my parents. Hey, that's making you laugh. Zhang Yang did not hide it, raised his hand and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.
The reason why he stopped Ziyi from shooting the head with a gun just now was of course to find out if the old man really left any valuable clues in his body, but a more important reason was because of compassion.
Although he knew in his heart that the old couple was incurable.
Seeing that the old man was still holding on to the wedding photo in this situation, Zhang Yang couldn't help but be moved by that obsession.
Seeing the slime-contaminated and somewhat crumpled black and white photos of his hands, he couldn't help but think of his parents who he had never met.
As a result, there is the following series of actions.
Ziyi has a close relationship with Song Feixue, and he also vaguely knows a little about Zhang Yang's life experience.
Hearing Zhang Yang say this, as an orphan, she also felt a little empathy.
"Mr. Zhang, you will definitely find your parents." Ziyi said comfortingly.
"Well, I've always been confident in that." Zhang Yang said with a smile.
Didi ......
Suddenly, there was a beep in the communicator.
Immediately, Joseph's hoarse voice rang out.
"Attention teams, attention to teams, I am Joseph, please report on the search and rescue situation!"
"I'm Alice, a human limb was found in apartment three, and there are no survivors! Everything works fine. ”
Immediately, Alice's voice came.
After ordinary people are torn apart, their stumps and severed arms completely lose their vitality, and naturally they will no longer become zombies.
Only those who have the ability to act will become aggressive.
"I'm Zhang Yang! The three groups found a zombie and the body of an old woman, which have been disposed of, and no survivors have been found. Everything works fine. ”
As for the mutated Persian cat, Zhang Yang decided to hide it for the time being.
He believed that Nicole and the others also knew what was at stake and would not talk nonsense.
Pressing off the communicator, Zhang Yang said to Ziyi: "Let's go, go and see somewhere else." ”
"Say, what's going on with these old couple?" Ziyi asked suddenly.
She took a closer look, and even in this messy bedroom, there was still no trace of a fight.
"Are you still suspicious of that Persian cat?" Of course, Zhang Yang knew what Ziyi was suspicious.
"Yes!" Ziyi nodded, "I took a special look at the wound on the old couple just now, and I think it's very suspicious." Why, don't you feel that way? ”
"It does look similar, but I always feel that something is wrong!" Zhang Yang said in a deep voice.
The purple clothes were a little inexplicable.
But thinking of Zhang Yang's ability, she didn't say much after all.
"But ......," Zhang Yang's voice sounded again, "I can take a look at that Persian cat, and I believe that some valuable clues can be found from it." ”
"But where to find it?" Ziyi was a little troubled.
Unlike ordinary zombies, the Persian cat is not only fast, but also seems to be cunning.
Being cunning means that it has a mind!
But since it is a walking dead controlled by evil energy, it should not have a mind.
"Let's find out first! I don't think it went far. Just hid for the time being. Zhang Yang squinted his eyes and swept around every corner and said in a deep voice.
As he spoke, he unleashed his psychic sense, intending to conduct a carpet search of his surroundings to see where the Persian cat had hidden.
However, Zhang Yang searched for a long time, not even in the basement or even in the sewer, but found nothing after all.
He was amazed to find that there was no living life in this villa except themselves!
Not to mention rats, not even cockroaches and ants were found......
However, for this strange situation, Zhang Yang didn't even break through the purple clothes.
The three teams that traveled together determined that there was no danger in their respective villas and that there was no one worthy of treatment, so they decided to give up the search and continue to move forward.
During this time, Joseph tried to contact the two advance teams that had acted first.
Unfortunately, I tried several times, but I never got a response.
A hint of bad feeling suddenly spread.
"Captain, shouldn't you disappear like before?" Alice leaned over to Joseph and whispered her concerns.
"Not necessarily!" Joseph frowned and said, "The black fog that lingers in the center of the town itself has a strong shielding effect on the radio waves, and perhaps because of this, they can't receive our signal and can't contact me. So we have to speed up and meet them as soon as possible according to the agreed route. ”
Alice was still a little worried, but she didn't say more.
Next, the situation in each villa searched by Zhang Yang and others was almost the same as what they had found before.
Except for the occasional discovery of a zombie that was not eliminated by the advance team, there were no new discoveries.
It's just that these zombies have completely lost their vitality without exception, even if Zhang Yang does not hesitate to spend Jiuyang's true qi, it is irrefutable, so he has to be ruthless to destroy it, which can be regarded as helping him to get free.
Out of respect for the deceased, Zhang Yang routinely used Jiuyang True Fire to incinerate their corpses, and then carefully collected their ashes in a box.
Although it seemed like a useless effort, as he got closer and closer to the center of the town, Zhang Yang could clearly feel the evil aura that lingered in the air becoming more and more intense.
As he led Nicole and the others out of the seventh apartment, he suddenly stood in the doorway, looking far away in the direction of the evil aura, looking at the dark area of Windsor's town center for a while.
"Mr. Zhang, did you find anything?"
At this time, Joseph also led the members of his team out of the villa opposite, and when he saw Zhang Yang standing in place, looking ahead in a daze, he couldn't help but ask.
"There," Zhang Yang said in a deep voice as he stretched out his index finger and pointed in the direction of the center of Windsor Town, which was tightly wrapped in a cloud of black mist, "I feel that a powerful evil force seems to be constantly absorbing the power around it, and it is expanding!" ”
Joseph was slightly stunned, then nodded: "Well, we once tried to use satellites to conduct reconnaissance, but the vicinity was shrouded in a black fog, and we couldn't shoot any valuable information at all." What's more, this force is like a black hole, and it seems to swallow up radio waves. Even the wired communication equipment failed, so we didn't know anything about what was going on inside. ”
"Did the seven Special Operations fighters you lost before also suddenly disappear when they were close to that black mist?" Zhang Yang asked suddenly.
"That's right!" A flash of gleam suddenly flashed in Joseph's eyes, "They suddenly disappeared when they approached here." As if they had disappeared into thin air, the various equipment and even clothing and clothing they were carrying were scattered in place, and we can only understand all this from the brief video footage transmitted from the communication equipment. But soon, even the communication equipment was completely out of order, and we could no longer receive any more information. ”
"That's right, it means it's spreading! Those devices were wrapped in it, and that's what caused them to malfunction. Zhang Yang said in a deep voice.
"So let's go over it like this...... Ah, oops, our advance party! Stop, they must be stopped! ”
Joseph said, immediately connecting to Command.
"Lord Morse, hurry, hurry up and fire the flares to get our men back and evacuate urgently. Danger, danger! He almost yelled.
"Joseph, I'm afraid it's too late."
Opposite, Lord Morse's hoarse and deep voice was heard.
"What's going on?" Joseph was startled, and a bad premonition hit him.
"They...... They're all gone. Like the seven warriors in front of them, all of them suddenly disappeared as they approached the black mist. Lord Morse said.
"Gone?! When is the matter! Joseph asked again.
"Just about an hour ago." Lord Morse's voice was lowered.
"What, an hour?! You...... Why didn't you say it earlier?! Joseph was furious like a leopard, "Are you going to hide it from us like this and let us continue to die?!" ”
"Joseph, I'm sorry!"
"I don't listen!" Joseph roared.
"Joseph, I command you, keep going, keep going! Get as close as you can to the black mist and get valuable information. ”
Suddenly, Jack's voice changed from the other end of the phone.
"Jack, it's your decision, right?" Joseph roared.
"It's an order!" Jack's voice was indifferent.
"It's murder! I refuse to carry it out! Joseph ripped off the communicator and prepared to smash it.
Zhang Yang's eyes were quick, and at the moment when the communicator took off his hand, he grabbed it in the air, and the communicator turned back in mid-air and landed firmly in his hand.
"Mr. Director, can you hear me?"
Zhang ...... Mr. Zhang? Jack was slightly stunned.
He obviously didn't expect it to be Zhang Yang.
"It's me!" Zhang Yang said with a smile.
"You...... Did you hear it all? Jack asked.
"Of course! I also knew that the black fog was spreading. ”
"So, you're going to give up." Jack said in a deep voice.
"On the contrary, we decided to go with the original plan."
Silent......
Not only Jack on the other end of the communicator, but also Joseph and Alice and others present felt incomprehensible.
They all knew how terrible that black fog was, but Zhang Yang insisted on moving forward.
Isn't this going to die?
But seeing that although Zhang Yang seemed to have a relaxed face, there was firmness in his eyes, and it didn't seem like he was talking casually.
After about ten seconds, Jack's voice finally rang out.
"Mr. Zhang, you're not kidding, are you?" There was a distinct hint of excitement in Jack's voice.
"Yes, Mr. Zhang, are you really going?!" Lord Morse also shouted.
"What do you think?" Zhang Yang asked rhetorically.
"Alright! What do you need from us? Jack seemed to have made a difficult decision.
"Don't try to destroy it with weapons, not only will it not be destroyed, but it will make it expand faster. I want you to guarantee this, otherwise everyone will be unlucky, and no one will be able to escape. ”
Zhang Yang could almost guess what the hell these guys were up to, so he simply took a dose of preventive shots just in case.
