Chapter 49 [Corpse Nest]
The six islands of the Autumn Forest are the most frequented resource gathering places for those who are able.
The galaxy that runs through Far Star City grows here, and the continuous flow of water brings mineral-rich soil to the six islands, making the vegetation far more lush than the rest of the region.
This dangerous area, which was once listed as a forbidden place by Far Star City, is a rare treasure trove in the eyes of the powerful.
Relatively weak zombies, rich and diverse forest materials, before the corpse tide comes, countless capable people collect and explore here every day.
Now, the dark and damp autumn forest is raining again, the sky is rolling thunder, and the zombies are roaring.
Hiding under the rocks, Nine Kills skillfully lit a bonfire and baked his clothes soaked in the rainstorm.
One of the ten gods standing at the pinnacle, the second leader of the Mousse camp, Nine Kills, had just chopped a stack of wood and stacked it on a wagon not far away.
The lumber yard that has grown new shoots, no one.
On one of the few iron bridges, there was no one.
In the mossy safe house in the distance, the stove had cooled down and there was no one.
In the entire six-island collection area, only nine kills and one person.
There were a few more blood marks on the hundreds of scars on the body, and the mushrooms that were a little baked exuded a fresh fragrance.
The autumn forest is rich in straw mushrooms, although slightly poisonous, but after roasting, it not only fills hunger, but also alleviates the erosion of the zombie virus on the human body.
Since awakening to become an ability, Nine Kills will come to the Autumn Forest every day to cut down trees. As a woody plant affinity, Nine Kills armed with an alloy axe can harvest countless resources every day, so many that the helicopter can't put it down, so it can only be stored at the evacuation point of the Autumn Forest, allowing the people in the camp to slowly drag it back.
The corpse tide attacked the alliance, and naturally passed through the forest, and the six islands, which were relatively safe, were no less dangerous than the heavily infected areas under the wash of the corpse tide.
What's more, the camp is dangerous, the capable ones are either guarding or taking refuge, and it is impossible for anyone to collect resources in the wild where the danger level is doubled, with the exception of nine kills.
Whether it's wind and rain, scorching sun or thunder, Nine Kills will spare a few hours every day to cut down trees in the autumn forest. No one can control him, not even those with evolutionary abilities, who will feel fear when they are stared at by the Nine Kills.
A group of zombies passing by, the rainy day affects the senses of the zombies, and for those with affinity, there is also a function of hiding the body near the resources of their affinity.
The smell of blood brought by the zombie tide has made all zombies go berserk, even if it is a rotting corpse that only operates at night, it will now be resurrected during the day, greedily inhaling the smell of blood in the air.
Nine Kills coughed, and when the corpses met the living, they immediately let out an excited roar and rushed towards Nine Kills in a twisted attitude.
The hand holding the shotgun paused suddenly, and slowly pulled out the serrated knife from behind his back.
To deal with them, you don't need a gun yet.
Swish......!
A knife! With just one knife, it seemed to be a casual wave, and the double-digit corpses were instantly clean, the body that had lost its head was still twitching, and the corpses that rolled to the ground were still making biting movements, but blue and turbid corpse blood kept gushing out of their mouths.
The sky suddenly clears, the weather in the autumn forest is unpredictable, and even the most advanced survival aids can only record as the weather changes.
The corpse blood emitted a putrid stench, as strong as the Nine Killings, and he couldn't stand such a disgusting air, and as soon as he took a step, he suddenly felt some movement, and immediately rushed to a big tree, hidden in the lush branches.
A sharp metallic sound was heard, startling a crowd of birds.
A car was seen head-on.
Half of it was only half to be exact, and half of it was embedded in the flesh of the blue blood meridian.
And knives, guns, shell casings......
The rusty metal was all embedded in a small area on the back, and the flesh was torn and blue blood flowed out as it was squeezed continuously.
The right hand disappeared entirely, replaced by a howitzer muzzle emitting smoke from gunpowder.
A grenade rolled down, with a loud bang, the ground trembled, the earth splashed, and the grass was not growing a few meters in diameter.
Special variant, King Kong.
Unlike the mutants created in the corpse tide, King Kong has a near-immortal body and amazing strength, comparable to the Spider Emperor Lin Yi met in the Autumn Forest.
The metal on King Kong's back rubbed against the hidden tree of Nine Kills, and the trunk swayed, falling leaves as if flattering.
King Kong glanced at the corpse on the ground, wandering around, the sound of inhaling air was very obvious, but he didn't smell anything.
Puzzled, King Kong picked up the corpse on the ground and put it in his mouth as if he were eating a snack.
With the sound of chewing bones, the existence of a zombie was completely erased.
One bite at a time, in a few minutes, the corpses that were originally piled up were only a pool of blue blood, and King Kong's abdomen swelled into a ball, which only took a day to digest, and the 3-meter-tall King Kong could grow up again.
With a long sigh after the meal, King Kong walked leisurely to a cave not far away. Then, a low roar continued for thousands of miles, and the zombies in the cave warmly welcomed the return of their king.
New nests have appeared, and if left unchecked, it won't be long before another heavily infected area is about to appear.
A few small zombies gathered after King Kong returned, greedily licking the blood on the ground. Although the blood of the same kind is not as good as that of humans, it can also promote the evolution of weak zombies, and zombies will also eat each other when food is scarce.
The sword flashed everywhere.
The remaining zombies were still immersed in the pleasure of enjoying food, and the next second they suddenly relaxed and fell asleep forever.
Nine Kills picked up some damp firewood on his back and looked slowly towards the corpse's nest. Immediately, he left calmly.
But when it comes to one King Kong, nine kills can be killed with one hand.
If it was a group of zombies, the heavily armed Nine Kills could kill him nine times.
But the cavern is bottomless, and I don't know what terrain it is inside, and how many special mutants there are. If you rush in, even if you clean it up successfully, you will have to lose your vitality.
The corpse tide in the Mousse camp is not over yet, and it is impossible to devote more energy to cleaning up the corpse tide.
But pruning it like this every day can also curb the development of the corpse nest, and when the corpse tide is over, it will be reported to the alliance, and the alliance will naturally organize a team of capable people to come and clean it up, and the mousse camp will be responsible for eating kickbacks.
The roar of the trucks is also a burden on the trucks with a medium load of wood, and the roar of protest will appear soon after use.
This kind of sound is better than a loudspeaker, and as soon as he heard the sound, the person who guarded the door found that the Nine Kills boss had returned, and hurriedly stepped forward to receive him.
Nine Kills' manor is a Chinese-style building, but even if the whole wood is made of wood, it is still a surplus of resources for Nine Kills, so most of the materials will be donated to the camp in the end, so Nine Killings has countless contribution points in Mousse.
The preparations before the corpse tide are basically completed, and the foreign aid is basically there, and now they are all gathered in the guest house, and the guest house of Mousse is at the hotel level.
Nine Kills got out of the car, drove the truck into the camp, and left the rest to the younger brothers to solve, he just needed to light a cigarette and sit on the sidelines and watch.
As usual, Nine Kills leaned on the alloy target in the training ground to smoke, and occasionally someone would use the alloy target for training, and the target vibrated after the bullet hit the target, just enough to massage.
Take a puff of smoke and exhale a puff of smoke rings.
It was clear that the tide of corpses related to the survival of the camp was coming, but it didn't have any effect on the Nine Killings.
It seems that not being surprised has become the method of facing everything in Nine Killings.
After experiencing that war, there was really nothing to make Nine Kills nervous, even if he was just a logistical at that time.
The sound of soft footsteps came, and if you didn't listen carefully, you couldn't hear it at all.
"It's a lurking face." Nine Killings muttered to himself. The sound is vicissitudes and elegant.
Draw the bow, aim.
Bows and arrows don't make loud noises, they don't attract the attention of zombies, and they're cheap and easy to make. Therefore, bows and arrows in the New World also have a place in ranged weapons, although firearms are mostly used in large scenes.
Nine kills are still leaning on the target, and even a high-end heavy sniper rifle like AWM can only leave a clear groove on the alloy target.
Sou!!
The arrows were like breaking through the wind, and even the nine kills almost didn't hear the traces of flight. Suddenly, Nine Kills was startled, and his body couldn't help but tilt slightly to the side.
Coming back to his senses, an iron arrow passed through the alloy target.
