Chapter 143: Speed of Life and Death (I)
On the west side, it was the only escape route that Tang Ling thought was the only way to escape if an uncontrollable mutation occurred.
Because on the westernmost side of the warehouse area is a small low slope, which forms a circle to the west of the warehouse area.
In pre-civilization times, it may have been a hill in the city, but the changes of time have created a special low slope.
One side facing the warehouse area is a hillside, no more than 50 meters high, while the other side is relatively steep, clinging to the evil crack.
This is also destined not to gather too many corpses there, because the rift is so evil that it can not only disguise its existence by itself, but must wear the badge of the Fortress of Hope to see the real face.
And it gives people a feeling of instinctive reluctance to get closer.
In fact, not only human beings, Tang Ling had observed through several times on duty, as long as the existence with a slightly keen-sensed sense, he would not approach that crack, and he was not even willing to approach within a certain range.
Although the corpse man is not a human, its brain is still a human structure after all, even if it only has instinct, it is stronger than ordinary beasts, and it is even more reluctant to approach that rift.
So, the west side...
Tang Ling stood on the roof, and could see clearly, as he guessed, there were no corpses on the low slope on the west side.
And Warehouse 19 was originally located in the northwest corner of the warehouse area, almost close to the west side, and it was unusually close to the low slope, if you want to escape...
Tang Ling felt that he could only rely on the original plan, but what he didn't expect was that now this situation was really implemented, which was much more difficult than the original plan.
Perhaps, if you do this, it will only be a dead end, but if there is still a glimmer of hope...
Tang Ling was an unusually decisive person, and after deciding, he did not hesitate to return the same way, but for the sake of insurance, he inserted the C-grade alloy long knife deep into the roof of the warehouse, and then used the C-grade alloy long knife as a fulcrum to tightly tie the light mountaineering rope to the long knife.
**
"That's the way it is, and the only way is to give it a go." Back in that office, it took Tang Ling less than two minutes to inform everyone of all the situation and his own plans.
The rest of the matter is very simple, it is to decide whether to continue to stay in the office and wait for support, or to risk the death, but there is not much time for everyone to consider and choose.
"Fight! Just follow the plan you said. Yu made the fastest decision, although he didn't know what the basis for Tang Ling to say that there would be a few minutes at most, and the door in the southeast corner would not be able to support it.
But even if Tang Ling is alarmist, the actual situation can't last long, which Yu understands.
"Let's fight." Auston stretched.
Vivian, Christina, and Andy couldn't make a choice for a while.
But Amir objected at this time, and he quickly said, "Why can't there be a safer way?" For example, when the small gate in the southeast corner is broken and the corpses pour in, we will go to the roof. Then wait for the opportunity on the rooftop, and then find a chance to lure the corpses down the low slope, and we take the opportunity to rush up the low slope? ”
Yes, Tang Ling's plan is actually not complicated, that is, a few of them will take the initiative to open the door, open all the doors, and 'lure' the surrounding corpses in.
In this way, the corpses under the roof will be reduced instantly, and Tang Ling will jump off the roof as soon as possible to lure the corpses gathered under the low slope not far away to the warehouse.
Then several people returned to the office in an orderly manner, quickly rushed to the roof, then jumped off the roof, rushed to the small hill, and finally only needed to go around the Hope Barrier along the crack, and the Raptors team was completely safe.
It sounds like a very simple plan, but in fact, the timing and physical exertion are a huge challenge, and it is very dangerous, because the slightest mistake can make people fall into the crowd of corpses.
Amir's objection is natural and reasonable, so why can't he choose a more secure approach?
Obviously, the method proposed by Amir has made everyone a little tempted, if it can be done in a relatively safe way? Who wants to venture into such a dense crowd of corpses?
Tang Ling took a deep breath, patted Amir's shoulder, and said unusually quickly, "Three o'clock." ”
"First, the corpses are uncontrollable, so when will they all flood into the warehouse? We don't have a way to control the time, so we don't know how long we'll have to wait.
Second, the roof is not safe, and when we all go to the roof, we are exposing ourselves. The corpse's sense of smell is unusually sensitive, and I can't guarantee what the consequences will be on an unsheltered roof.
Think about it, if a Level 2 creeper comes, will the walls be in the way?
Thirdly, if we all go to the roof, how attractive is a warehouse without 'food' to the corpse?
The point of my approach is that everything must be under control, even if it is risky, we must control the corpses! ”
Speaking of this, Tang Ling's expression became extremely serious: "Fighting is a matter of life and death, and we can't think about any guarantees." In that case, we will lose. ”
"I'm done talking, you can choose again."
Yes, if it is about the ability to judge the entire battlefield situation, even a high-ranking general may not be as good as Tang Ling.
Before he climbed onto the roof, he had already thought very maturely, and the only thing he didn't expect was that the sawtooth tank was still in the warehouse area.
"Beau." There was a consensus on the same page, because there really was no more secure way to do it.
**
Vivian and Christina were half-crouched on the roof, shivering.
Maybe it's because of the cool night breeze, maybe it's because the 'jagged tank' in the distance is still devouring.
The very graphic swallowing action makes people feel as if they can hear the sound of human blood rubbing between their teeth, and they can also hear the last miserable howls of those innocent and brave soldiers.
Hope Cliff, a band of light lit up, so dazzling.
I still remember what I saw in the hanging box that day, which was the location of the secondary city moat.
In the south, artillery fire was already sounding, and in order to force the troops into the warehouse area, the Hope Barrier used thermal weapons.
And what about the warehouse area underfoot? Some of the 12 areas are already full of corpses, while others have warriors breaking out and fighting in them, like a small whirlpool in the ocean, it is hard to imagine whether there is still a glimmer of hope for survival.
What is the Mentor of the Skies doing? Is it in the command center at the moment?
The people in Safe Zone 17 are sleeping soundly, right? I can't imagine what kind of crisis is happening here across a cliff?
Tang Ling stood on the roof, in front of the two girls, the cuffs of the combat uniform had been rolled up, and the wolf bite was tightly clasped in his hand, he just remembered the soldier who kissed his weapon and prayed before leaving.
And his slightly thin standing figure fell into the eyes of Vivian and Christina, and found a little bit of safety.
In a dark warehouse.
Auston kissed the spur in his hand, a gift from the family, and looked at Amir.
Yu wordlessly stretched out his right hand and looked at Andy, whose face was slightly pale.
"Let's get started."
Auston waved his spur and pulled up his combat uniform, and a deep scar on his bare arm immediately appeared, and a large area of blood oozed out.
And then there is Amir...
Yu's right hand also cut his own arm, and with a merciless stroke, the blood was enough.
Andy closed his eyes and extended his arms to Yu as well.
**
Four arms, the same flowing blood with temperature.
Although it is still through the door of the warehouse, it has already made the corpses outside the door crazy.
Yes, human beings are the favorite food of the corpses, and human blood is the 'deadly poppy' that the corpses are addicted to.
"Open the door." Auston's loud voice resounded through the dark warehouse.
'Bang la la'
'Crackle'
The gate on the north side and the small gate in the southeast corner open at the same time.
"Run! Follow the route Tang Ling said. The moment the door opened, the night breeze with the peculiar smell of corpses poured in at the same time as the corpses like a tide of water.
Countless gray eyes with bloodthirsty madness rushed towards the warehouse.
The dripping blood is the best control agent, and from this moment on, the corpse crowd will chase after the four of them.
How long does it take? One minute? Five minutes? Or ten minutes?
Although Warehouse 19 is only a little more than a hundred meters away from that low slope! You don't have to think about it for ten minutes, you must hold on for ten minutes...
Andy's eyes were red, listening to the howls behind him, just praying that there must be no higher-level mutant corpses in it, otherwise it would be difficult to hold on for half a minute.
"Tang Ling, Tang Ling, you must be faster..."Andy almost cried in his heart.
And what about Auston, Yu and Amir?
Tang Ling! Hurry up!
