CHAPTER 40
September 20, 2036, North City, Hailan District,
The terrible catastrophe has been going on for more than a week, and there is no living person in the city. The survivors who escaped retreated into the dilapidated high-rises, shivering in the dark corners.
Relying on the pitiful food to survive, the only remaining hope in his heart is slowly being dashed.
A leaf slowly falls from a branch, spins in the air for a few moments and then lands on the street. Suddenly, a large, unshoed foot stepped on the leaves, and then staggered on. After the owner of the foot left, black-red blood was left on the crumpled leaves.
It's a skinny zombie with a bare upper body, and the shoes on his feet don't know where they go. Its mantled face was covered with black veins, and it had a piece of human flesh in its mouth, bleeding down the corners of its mouth.
I saw it stop and turn its head back and forth in confusion, and the zombies around it seemed to be moving in the same direction purposefully. It chewed the flesh in its mouth and joined the marching procession.
The destination of these zombies is the "confinement zone" ahead, an "impregnable" human gathering place......
The "confinement zone" in Beicheng is a military area under the jurisdiction of the military. It is located to the southeast of the northern city and is about the size of two football fields. The "confinement zone" is full of high-rise buildings, including the regional ZF building. However, without exception, these buildings have been damaged to varying degrees, and some of them are constantly emitting black smoke.
The perimeter of the "confinement zone" is covered with two layers of defense to prevent the entry of infected people from the outside world. The outermost layer is a wall of cylindrical steel pillars with a gap in the middle. The second level is made of a complete iron heavy fence, which is four meters high, and two gates are opened in the east and west directions.
Not only that, but a "sentry" was erected above the wall. There are manned patrols 24 hours a day to monitor and defend against infected people. There are also lighting equipment and heavy weapons on the walls, and the soldiers stand on the platform to eliminate the infected outside the walls, but these zombies seem to be unable to be eliminated.
Helicopters fly back and forth between the "Lockup Zone" and the "Infected Zone" in an attempt to save the trapped survivors. But in the vast majority of cases, the helicopter has no return......
There is a plaza in front of the ZF building, and the open space of the square is filled with all kinds of strange equipment, and these are all "new weapons" without exception. They are all created by Corey. Stan designed and built them, but none of these weapons have been tested in combat. Therefore, one of the purposes of the existence of the "confinement zone" is to test "new weapons", and their performance is still very satisfactory.
The infrastructure is well developed and there is a "temporary control area" for survivors. Survivors were provided with food, water, and medical supplies, while also restricting their movements. The "confinement zone" is a military-controlled zone, and there are a lot of military secrets, so the command does not allow survivors to move around at will.
In the survivors' "control zone", everyone is huddled in the same tent in blankets. Eating simple foods like bread and biscuits, and drinking cold water. Many of these people were wealthy, and the poor conditions in the camp had long made them dissatisfied. Several "protests" were made, but they were ignored by the head of the resettlement camp.
At this time, a group of people came out of the building opposite. Led by a soldier who led the way to the resettlement camp with the survivors behind him. After handing them over to the head of the resettlement camp, they turned and left.
"Brother, isn't your family living well in the building? How did you come to the camp? ”
Before the newcomer's ass was hot, a middle-aged man with a big belly came over and "accosted".
"Don't mention it! The people of ZF said they were going to requisition and wouldn't let us live! ”
The male owner of the family slapped his thigh and said in annoyance.
"What bullshit requisition! I see, they just don't want us to have a good time! ”
The middle-aged man didn't want to stay in the camp, so he poured dirty water on the person in charge of the "confinement zone" in an attempt to force Tina to change their place to live.
"Huh? Is that the case? ”
When the man heard the "sudden realization", he couldn't believe it.
"Don't listen to his nonsense, it's good to have such a place to stay, don't pick and choose!"
The woman sitting on the side couldn't listen anymore and came over to stop the middle-aged man's "gibberish".
"Am I talking nonsense?! I don't need to tell you what the conditions of the resettlement camp are, are you willing to continue to stay here and suffer?! ”
When the middle-aged man heard someone refute him, he suddenly became angry.
"And what do you want?!"
The woman seemed to be moved, and hurriedly asked the middle-aged man.
"We can unite to protest to them, I don't believe they don't bow their heads!"
The middle-aged man thought that his plan would make the person in charge, Tina, succumb, but he clearly underestimated Tina......
……
Checkpoints are set up at both gates of the "confinement zone", and all people entering and leaving the zone are strictly checked. The gate on the west side leads to a bridge with a rushing river underneath it, separating the "confinement zone" from the other side of the river. On the east bank of the river is the "confinement zone", and on the west bank is a factory.
The West Bank factory and the bridge are also controlled by the military, and the factory is used as an "outpost". Although the defense of the factory is not as good as that of the "confinement zone", it still has a certain defensive capability. If outsiders want to enter the "confinement zone", they must first pass through the checks of the outpost.
……
On this day, Stoke and his party finally arrived at the "outpost".
Stoke originally wanted to go straight to the "confinement zone", but he didn't expect the outpost to exist.
Besides, the road to the outpost has been blocked by zombies, so there is no way to get close. Even if you solve a lot of zombies, the soldiers in the factory won't let them in.
Given the current situation, Stoke had no choice but to hide in a building not far away. On the premise of not revealing his whereabouts, discuss ways to enter.
"How are we going to get in?"
Stoke took a look at the outpost with a telescope, and then went straight to Task Force Leader Parker. grabbed him by the collar and looked very impatient.
"Looks like the outpost won't let you through!"
Parker had long known about the existence of the outpost, and was well aware of the rules here, knowing that Stoke and his men could not pass through the outpost at all.
"I know! That's why I asked how you can get in? ”
Stoke grabbed Parker tightly with both hands and pulled him up, and he felt like Parker was playing with himself.
"I warn you! Don't play tricks! ”
Stoke gave Parker a vicious look, then gave the younger brothers a look. The men behind him immediately put their guns to the heads of the players, and if Parker was not honest, the lives of the team members would be in danger.
"I'll contact my superiors ......"
