Chapter 43: The Sea of Corpses
As soon as Xu Yitian saw Zou Quyang, the leader of the base, he had a strong fighting spirit towards Xu Yitian.
At this time, a man with long hair stood up, stood in front of Zou Quyang, and said apologetically to Xu Yitian: "I'm sorry, our leader is a battle maniac, please understand." ”
"Yes, it's fine." Xu Yitian didn't want to make a move with Zou Quyang, and the big war was coming, even if he was a reckless man, he should know the severity, and he wouldn't really make a move on Xu Yitian.
"Since you're a master at making the leader fight, then you can help us deal with the trickier zombies, okay?" The long-haired man asked questions in a deliberative tone.
"Yes, since I decided to help, I will do my best to help." Xu Yitian said categorically.
"It's okay, although the frequency of corpse tides in the past two months is a bit high, but the number is generally around two thousand to five thousand, and these may not be enough for me to play alone." It was a walking 'fortress' that spoke, its two-meter-tall body was all wrapped under steel iron armor, and it was carrying a long-handled giant hammer on its shoulder, the huge hammer head was bigger than half of Xu Yitian's body.
"Jiang Yongsheng, then you can go by yourself this time, it's good for us to rest." The long-haired man joked.
"Gan Zhiyuan, why do you keep demolishing my platform." Jiang Yongsheng suddenly froze like a deflated balloon.
"Huh." Gan Zhiyuan scoffed.
"Okay, don't let people see our jokes, there is usually no situation, you just stay on the city wall, if there is a situation that can't be solved, you can support it." Zou Quyang stopped the quarrel between the two, and then said to Xu Yitian.
"Yes." Xu Yitian agreed.
Xu Yitian knew that he was wary of himself, which was normal, after all, he was a newcomer, and he could threaten his master.
"Well, then let's fight off the tide of corpses, and then party the wine all night." Zou Quyang shouted loudly.
"Whew! Oh! Oh! Everyone cheered in response.
Xu Yitian looked at the faces that were flushed with excitement, and knew why Dou Xiao was reluctant to come back, in such a group of hot-blooded men, he must be as out of place as an alien when he was afraid.
Even Xu Yitian's chest lit up with a flame, wanting to rush into the corpses to kill all sides to vent his emotions.
But a spiritual force calmed Xu Yitian's blood, and said in his mind: "I can feel that there is a spiritual force from Gan Zhiyuan that affects everyone. ”
At this time, the person who spoke in Xu Yitian's mind was Li Ruoxi, and at the same time as Zou Quyang shouted, a secret spiritual fluctuation spread out from the long-haired man, that is, Gan Zhiyuan, and it was this spiritual power that affected everyone present.
Xu Yitian, who came to his senses, felt afraid for a while, this ability to quietly affect people's emotions is really unpreventable, even Xu Yitian's mental power is very strong, but under the rendering of the surrounding atmosphere, he was unknowingly hit.
Xu Yitian looked at Gan Zhiyuan and found that he was also looking at himself.
"It's funny, one wasn't affected at all, the other was affected, but it took two breaths to get emotional." Gan Zhiyuan was a little surprised, because even the leader could only notice the abnormality after his ability failed.
Gan Zhiyuan was wary of this seemingly weak girl, and ordered someone to keep an eye on her in secret.
"Bow and arrow?" On the city wall, Xu Yitian looked at the weapons held by the people on both sides, and was a little surprised.
Bows and arrows are still relatively easy to use against living people, but against zombies that don't die without destroying their heads, if they don't accurately shoot into the zombie's eye socket and shoot to other places on their bodies, it has no effect on zombies who don't feel pain.
Could it be that every one of these people is a marksman?
This idea was vetoed in a flash in Xu Yitian's mind, this is obviously impossible, if there are dense people standing on the city wall, they are all good at wearing Yang for 100 meters, then Xu Yitian can only say a word.
Since this possibility is very small, there is only one truth, and the arrows in their quiver must be extraordinary, and they will know when the zombies come.
After waiting for half an hour, zombies finally appeared in the distance, roaring like ocean waves.
Soon the vanguard of the corpse tide rushed to everyone's eyes, their hideous and terrifying faces clearly visible, but as they approached the tree, they let out a terrible cry and stopped.
This instinctive aversion, zombies that rely on their sense of smell and hearing to act when they encounter this smell, it is like collecting the stench emitted by more than a hundred skunks and stuffing it into your nose in one go.
Fortunately, zombies have no life and can't die again, otherwise they don't need to be guarded by others, and just planting these trees can make zombies die here.
The zombies in front stopped, but the zombies in the back did not stop, just like stepping on the scene, the zombies in front were pushed and then trampled to death, and the zombies in the back stopped again when they smelled the smell, and then they were pushed to death, and the cycle continued.
But there is a limit to this situation, and the limit is when the corpses of zombies completely submerge the trees.
However, this moment did not make them wait long, and the first line of defense finally collapsed.
Countless zombies climbed up a hill made up of compatriots and rushed in the direction of the base.
"Ready!" Zou Quyang shouted loudly.
All drew their arrows, put them on the bowstring, and drew their bows like a full moon.
"Put."
With an order, wooden arrows shot into the corpse tide like thunder and lightning, and the zombies that were shot fell like robots that lost power, and then were trampled into meat sauce by the zombies behind.
"It seems that the material of these wooden arrows should be the same as these trees, I wonder if I can leave with some saplings when I leave." Xu Yitian thought that if it could be transplanted to T City, he would not have to worry about the scattered zombie infestation on weekdays.
These archers are ordinary people who have been trained, and they don't require much precision, and they are guaranteed to hit a zombie with a single shot.
The battle lasted for forty minutes, but the corpse tide showed no signs of exhaustion, Xu Yitian sensed that something seemed to be wrong, and Zou Quyang and the others also noticed it.
The number of corpses this time far exceeded everyone's expectations.
Ten thousand? Twenty thousand? Or more, no one can know, but the tide of corpses that doesn't seem to be able to see the boundary in front of them, no, it should be a sea of corpses, which makes everyone feel a trace of despair in their hearts.
And this desperation will gradually expand over time, and even Gan Zhiyuan can't do anything about it.
When the heart is filled with despair, it is the time when the base is shattered.
