Chapter 29: Sacrifice
The base that needs to be escorted is far away from the Akatsuki base, and it is impossible to arrive at least a day.
It may also have something to do with the fact that the speed of the convoy is not fast, except for the previous rescue, Xiao Ming has never seen the convoy rushing fast.
At noon the next day, the convoy arrived at the opposing base.
The base is not large, and it is exceptionally small compared to the Xiao base. The convoy was parked at the gate of the opposing base.
The entire base is like a prison, with barbed wire on the high walls, which can defend against low-level zombies, but it is a bit difficult to deal with mid-level and high-level zombies.
The severed arm of the corpse outside the base also told why he wanted to join the Xiao base.
The population of this base is about four or five hundred people, and at the gate of the base, the leader of the Firebird Bounty Group has finally appeared.
Ai Ping pointed to a woman and said to Xiao Ming, that is the head of the bounty group.
It was far away, Xiao Ming couldn't see the appearance of the head of the bounty group, and he was not interested in paying attention to these.
He and Ai Ping are now assigned to guard outside.
This base has also been arranged very early, and the matter of migration has been waiting for the arrival of the bounty group.
The head of the Firebird Bounty Regiment briefly negotiated with the other party, the precautions in the journey, and the arrangements for various resources and weapons.
In addition to the vehicles of the Firebird Bounty Regiment, the opposing base also had forty or fifty vehicles.
But that doesn't mean everyone can get in the car.
Xiao Ming had doubts before, the population of the base is so large, why not transfer in batches.
Soon a wave of small corpses told Xiao Ming why he didn't divide them into batches.
"All ready to fight."
There was an order coming from the intercom, and although I don't know what it was, it certainly wouldn't come out of the base.
The bullet was checked, the safety was turned off, and Xiao Ming's finger was on the board machine, ready to shoot at any time.
In addition to the people of the bounty regiment who were ready, the fighters of the base were also ready for battle.
However, their weapons are a bit rudimentary compared to the Firebird Bounty.
"Huh~" The roar came from the dense forest, different from any kind of cry that Xiao Ming had ever heard.
Before Xiao Ming could think that it was the roar of the zombies, one roar after another kept sounding.
As the first one appeared, one after another appeared in the open space outside the base.
It's a corpse tide, but it's not an ordinary corpse tide, it's a zombie dog.
When the alarm sounded, the people at the base were preparing to migrate. At this time, in addition to a small number of people who fled back to the base, a considerable number of them were outside the base.
The motorcade of the Firebird Bounty Regiment is on guard at the outermost perimeter.
As the first gunshot rang out, dense gunshots rang out one after another.
The head of the Firebird Bounty Group put down the walkie-talkie with a gloomy face.
"Shot." Hearing the gunshot, Xiao Ming also pulled the trigger without hesitation.
"Dada...... Da-da-da-da. "A dense network of bullets struck at the zombie dogs that were coming at everyone.
Xiao Ming didn't keep pulling the trigger, but shot at the point. Machine guns are far more powerful than automatic rifles.
Xiao Ming could clearly see that the bullet he shot hit the zombie dog hard. Beat the zombie dog to pieces.
As the zombie dogs continued to approach, an explosion also sounded from the corpses.
One by one, the evolved zombie dogs also rushed out of the dense forest, and the machine gun fire hit them, and the visual effect was not as conspicuous as before. The difficulty of kills has also been greatly increased.
"All retreat to the base."
A woman's voice rang out over the intercom.
Even zombies and humans who are one or two orders higher than zombie dogs can't compare to the speed of zombie dogs. It's their racial advantage.
The order sounded, but there were still a large number of civilians outside the base who did not retreat.
"Retreat" looked at the unmoved vehicle, and the head of the Firebird Bounty Regiment ordered again.
The vehicles that were still on the periphery quickly started up.
Feeling the car under him move, Xiao Ming glanced back at the people who were fleeing back to the base in a panic.
He was helpless, so he could only vent the ammunition in the corpses.
The people who were too late to flee were rushed by the vehicles, and the people who were unable to dodge were directly knocked away.
No one had time to complain, and for a moment, crying, shouting, noise, gunshots, yelling, mixed together.
"Close the door" looked at the forty or fifty people who were still outside, and the head of the Firebird Bounty Regiment gave an order without hesitation.
"It can't be turned off." Opposition followed, and it was the leader of the base who led it.
The head of the Firebird Bounty Regiment looked back at him gloomily and said lightly: "Close the door"
The leader said helplessly: "Close it"
He knew what the consequences would be if he didn't close the door, and what the consequences would be if he let the zombie dogs rush in.
He knew that since the arrival of the Bounty Regiment, the command of this base was no longer in his hands, and if there was any objection to the head of the Firebird Bounty Regiment, he would be killed.
"Bump" The heavy door was tightly closed, and Xiao Ming could clearly see the despair in the eyes of the people outside.
A glimmer of relief in despair finally turned into hope.
Complicated feelings hit Xiao Ming's heart like a bullet.
Two worlds outside the door, two worlds inside the door.
The door was closed, but it wasn't over yet.
Accompanied by the roar, the screams drowned out the roars.
"Bump" a slam hit the heavy door. A clear mark was left on the back of the pure iron door.
"Fourth Order" Xiao Ming's eyes shrank.
No wonder he has to retreat, although the leader of the Firebird Bounty Group is a C-level existence comparable to the fourth order. But she is not He Chao, known as an invincible existence at the same level.
And zombie animals are far more difficult to deal with than other creatures of the same level.
If she only dealt with that fourth-order zombie dog, she didn't know if she could beat it. But she knew very well that without her deterrence, the low-level zombie dog would easily slaughter everyone present, and even she herself would be at risk of falling if she was not careful, and the leader of the Firebird Bounty Group couldn't afford to gamble.
"It seems that when this regiment leader gave the order, he could see that there was a fourth-order existence in the zombie dog group." Xiao Ming thought about the chaotic but orderly appearance of the zombie dog.
"Bump." A series of crashes slammed into the iron door.
At this time, the head of the Firebird Bounty Group stepped forward and slapped the iron door fiercely.
This palm also struck the iron door out of a mark.
A fourth-order zombie dog is also wise. Look at this trace that is not weak in the slightest and collides with him. Knowing that there are people in there who can compete with him.
"Roar~" The roar pierced the sky.
"The zombie dogs outside have retreated." The personnel in charge of observing the outside shouted.
Suddenly, there was a cheer in the door, and even Xiao Ming put down the heart that was in his heart.
