Chapter 14: Camp in Region II

Danger: This venomous snake often likes to crawl in the so-called chaotic grass and wait for an opportunity......

When Xiao Ai was pulled away by Haoran, the corpse-transformed Brother Kun suddenly jumped out of the van. If it weren't for the fact that he broke one foot and lost his balance and fell, I am afraid that Haoran, who had his back to it, would not have escaped his fate.

Xiao Ai didn't know what was going on, and when she tried to help 'Brother Kun', Jasmine in the cab shouted "Danger!" He's a zombie! ”

Haoran looked at the corpse of Brother Kun raised his head, his eyes met the empty eyes, and he took a few steps back in fright and fell to the ground, stiff and unable to move.

Xiao Ai couldn't believe what was happening in front of her, and she was stunned and frozen.

The corpse-transformed Brother Kun lay on the ground, roaring frantically, and crawled towards Xiao Ai.

Ah Bing reacted quickly, he grabbed a large stone next to him and smashed it into the head.

"Smack!" With a bang, the hard and brittle skull tore open against the scalp. Dark red blood trickled down the rift. Then, it doesn't move......

The still warm plasma splashed Ah Bing's body, and he trembled and looked at 'Brother Kun' who was lying motionless on the ground.

Everything happened too suddenly. When Xiao Ai came to his senses, he completely ignored the danger of infection and held Brother Kun's body in his arms. There are no tears in great sorrow, and Xiao Ai has no tears. recalled that she was humiliated alone when she was a child, but only Brother Kun was brought up like a brother, but she didn't expect him to die in front of her like this.

Everyone watched Xiao Ai fall into a mournful silence and did not disturb. After a short delay, he resumed his journey. The crowd proceeded to the Sector 2 camp without controversy. After a while. The van drove out of the narrow slope of the last mountain road, and the 2nd area of the camp outside the morning light came into view. There was no danger along the way, after all, the area around the lumberyard was deserted, and the dormitory area was cleared by soldiers, and finally burned to the ground.

The camp was built directly on the site of the lumberyard. The 1,200-square-meter site was directly expanded to 3,600 square meters. The entire lumber yard, stockpiles, transport roads, and three sides of the forest are included.

The trees are surrounded by metal thorn wires in 6 bundles to form a 2-meter-high net wall. Not only that, but the military units have also deployed improvised cable-pull mines within 10 meters of the front of the net. And it is a tandem arrangement in a group of 3. For brainless zombies, it can play a role in a little blasting and large-scale killing. The main thing is to stop the zombies that wander from the town of Black Mountain to the woods.

Taking advantage of the woods, the Sentinels built an improvised platform in the trees. Every 300 meters, you can observe all the dynamics in the forest.

The Sentinel Group consists of a scout and a stormtrooper team.

It was such a few teams that could firmly control the defenses behind and on both sides of the camp.

The open side of the camp is made of logs hoarded in the lumberyard. The wooden fence is 3 meters high and is 120 meters long. The enclosure has an opening at each end, and the west side is a pedestrian passage. It consists of 6 people, divided into two squads, and guards strictly. Each squad of soldiers took refuge in improvised forts made of sandbags, which undoubtedly strengthened their defenses.

On the east side is the traffic lane. Defending here is a group of machine gun squads of equal configuration. In addition, there is a military off-road vehicle with a light machine gun mounted on the roof.

There is also a four-man patrol team on the outside of the wall.

The interior of the camp is planned as 6 areas.

Adjacent to the entrance is the security checkpoint and the barracks. It is mainly responsible for the reception of survivors and rapid defensive support and monitoring of the quarantine area.

The quarantine area is next to it, and all injured people need to quarantine for 24 hours before they can enter the depths of the camp.

Next up is the medical district. Twenty makeshift tents have been set up here, mainly for the accommodation of medical staff and the rescue of ordinary trauma survivors.

The lumberyard's large crane tower and two warehouses were converted into a command center. On the top of the hanging tower, a pair of snipers are guarding the camp, one of the two warehouses is responsible for stockpiling supplies, and the other is the camp commander, Liu Weijie, the head of the 70th regiment, who is here to deal with the rescue and transportation of survivors with the deputy head of the regiment, the communication corps and other personnel.

The original transport road was converted into a parking lot. Two heavy military transport vehicles, one Dongfeng small truck, four miscellaneous civilian jeeps, and one heavy cargo trailer are all the vehicle reserves of this camp. It can be described as a mixed miscellaneous team.

In the end, a simple canteen was built between the command center and the parking lot. All the members of the camp had to eat together here, but the soldiers and survivors were separated, and the food was naturally different.

Jasmine's van was within 200 meters of the camp when a motorbike convoy of six people sped off from a forest road in the other direction. It was followed by two ordinary cars, one of which was driving crookedly at the tail, and it seemed that someone was fighting in the car. There was a half-naked zombie on the roof of the car. It unfolded its hands and clamped on the sides of the carport, then hung its head down the window as hard as it could, trying to attack the driver. The woman in the co-pilot used the wooden stick of the mop to keep blocking the zombies, and the situation was precarious......

Compared with these, more than 20 zombies rushed out from behind. They were closing the distance to the tail car at an unbelievable rate!

"Oh my God!" Seeing the speed of a zombie in an open area for the first time shocked Ah Bing, as did everyone.

After the soldiers patrolling the perimeter of the camp were in danger, they hurriedly fired signal flares to call out the military jeeps at the east gate to go to support, while the patrolmen fired from a distance.

The machine gunners who were far away did not dare to act rashly, for fear of harming the survivors.

It has to be said that the firepower of the regular army is quite strong, and this refers not to the amount of ammunition spewed, but to the hit rate and lethality.

After the galloping zombies were shot through the head, some fell backwards into the air, and some fell to the ground sideways. Some even had their limbs swept off by the bullet chains of light machine guns, and the howls of terror were incessant.

In less than a moment, the convoy was completely free from the zombie pursuit. After that, the machine gunner opened full fire, directly annihilating the unsheltered zombie horde.

Jasmine and the others' van arrived at the entrance of the camp at the same time as the convoy, and the two sides exchanged faces. Ah Bing looked at them, they were basically a family group, and there was a female physical education teacher with two junior high school students.

The guards of Sector 2 had all the survivors line up at the door, and then the medic would take blood samples for testing. In the half an hour of waiting, Hei Youyou's machine gun never left them.

Although the military would not determine their identities at this time, Ah Bing was inexplicably nervous. It's not because he's timid, it's ......

"You, you, you, and you. You can all go in. The female military doctor was wearing a white coat and pointed in front of everyone. interrupted Ah Bing's thoughts.

Seeing the survivors enter the camp one by one, Ah Bing became restless.

It wasn't long before another female medic briskly ran up to a non-commissioned officer and whispered in the ear for a while. He raised his head sharply and stared at Ah Bing.

Ah Bing, who secretly screamed in his heart, did not dare to move under the deterrence of the machine gun.

As soon as the female military doctor finished speaking, the sergeant officer quickly pulled out a pistol from his waist and aimed at Ah Bing's head and shouted, "You raise your hands above your head and hold your head!" Don't move, or you'll be killed on the spot! ”

Ah Bing had no choice but to do so, and in the eyes of everyone, he was escorted to the quarantine area by the soldiers. However, instead of being locked up in a cage like other suspected infected individuals, he was kept in a converted room from a lumberyard janitor's room. The windows were sealed with thick sheets, and even the doors were replaced with metal. The moment the iron door was shut. You can see a warning triangle with a yellow background on the door, and the biochemical signs on it are shocking......

"Why quarantine him?" Jasmine asked the sergeant officer puzzled.

"He is hopeless and could be transformed at any time, so we didn't shoot him directly for humanitarian reasons. After all, he's still human. ”

"What do you say! We ran away with him! Are you sure? Gillian asked in disbelief, thinking back all the way, she trembled with fear.

"If the human virus blood level is more than 0. 02Eiu/ml will be transformed within 24 hours. However, his blood level of the suspected virus actually reached 4600Eiu/ml. This virus content is enough to make 10,000 ordinary people instantly corpse ...... in 1 second."

The crowd was dumbfounded and incredulous.

The group was temporarily settled in the cafeteria. Thinking that it would be dangerous to walk at night, let everyone rest here. The next day, choose a suitable time to send them all to the Dawn Base.

……

The dim incandescent lamp swayed in the wind at the top of the tent, and the halo of light hit the folding table, reflecting the utensils on it. It contained shriveled non-leavened steamed buns, which made the people present have no appetite.

Haoran inserted his chopsticks into the soup bowl and spun around. Apparently not satisfied with the food in front of him. The two porcelain pots contain stewed tofu with cabbage and white radish with cold vinegar.

This is only the third day of the real outbreak of the end times. Perhaps they are not aware of the preciousness and scarcity of food.

"How do you eat this kind of thing, is there any mistake!" Gillian, who has not yet been sharpened by the apocalyptic crisis, complains about the food in front of her.

Jasmine and Xiao Ai looked at the empty bowl in a daze, they were probably still immersed in their grief.

In contrast, the survivors sitting across from each other were devouring wolves. The situation in the town of Montenegro was not optimistic, and it was the first time they had eaten so much along the way.

The two junior high school students didn't even estimate the dignity of reaching out to take the steamed buns in front of Gillian and the others, and stuffed them into their mouths indiscriminately. provoked Gillian to slam her chopsticks on the table. He said angrily: "Where did you come from, poor boy! So little to teach! ”

"I'm sorry...... I'm sorry......" The female physical education teacher hurriedly offered the steamed buns in her bowl with both hands, and kept apologizing.

In fact, Gillian was not angry with the two children, but the soldiers sitting opposite, who ate stewed pork slices with cabbage and shredded potatoes with vinegar.

Gillian, who has always enjoyed the best treatment, is most unaccustomed to the fact that others are better off than herself......

At this time, the Sector 2 camp continued to receive sporadic survivors who had fled to the area. But this is not good news for Liu Weijie, the head of the 70th regiment.

"Commander Liu, according to logistics statistics, we don't have much food left." The deputy head of the regiment said in fear with the day's consumption list in his hand.

"There are more than 60 soldiers left in our regiment, and the consumption of food shouldn't be so fast......" Liu Weijie's worries finally came true, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.

"Today, our group received a total of 70 survivors. They can double the consumption of food. Besides, when we escaped, we carried daily ingredients, not long-term reserve food. ”

"Huh" Liu Weijie breathed a long sigh ......of relief, he didn't know how long his remnants of the 70th Regiment could hold on. After a moment of thought, he asked, "What about ammunition?" ”

"We have plenty of ammunition! Defensively alone, it can last at least about 4 weeks. ”

"4 weeks...... Then we must stay here until the construction of the Chenguang base is completed! The order was lowered, and the amount of food was reduced to 40%. At the same time, people were sent to apply for food support from the Sector 1 camp and the main base. ”

"Oh! By the way, all the survivors will be transported directly to the Aurora base at 5 a.m. tomorrow! Let the 69th Regiment deal with it! Liu Weijie said with wishful thinking in his heart.

"Yes!" The deputy head of the regiment was ordered to retreat, leaving Liu Weijie alone, he leaned back in his chair, and his 45-year-old face was old and haggard......

As night fell, the lights in the camp gradually went out. All that was left was a searchlight on the crane tower patrolling the surroundings.

There was a rustling sound in the woods. A strange figure slowly crawled out of the forest.

When the moonlight splashed on the figure, its terrifying appearance was unobstructed.

It is human-like, walking on all fours like a dog, with short anemone-like whiskers on its back, and ordinary stones and rubble attached to its top. However, the most terrifying thing was his serpentine neck that was nearly a meter long sticking out in front of him. The skull at the end looked like an ordinary zombie, but there was a huge wound on the top of his skull, and there was a fist-sized meteorite inside the wound, and this meteorite and the wound actually grew together......

Its eyes spread out to the sides like a lizard, and it slid and turned. It was there staring at the Sector 2 camp as if it were watching its prey.

Like The Destroyer, it is a mutant zombie spawned by a special genetic chain. It was later known as the Controller.

And it has evolved to the intermediate level. Become a mid-level controller of the plague.

The Controller doesn't have great strength or incredible speed, but he has the most feared thing for humans, and that is intelligence, and it's as intelligent as the average adult man.

When the way of attacking by ordinary controllers is very special, then through special brain waves at the same frequency, to control the movement tendency and basic behavior of groups of zombies, the strength of brain waves determines the number and effective distance of zombies it can control. The most basic range is a 40 radius of enclosure and 140 equivalents regardless of type and level.

But it is different in that it appears in the Black Mountains and was an elderly mountain keeper during his lifetime. The house that was smashed by the meteorite during the corpse transformation was overwhelmed and even about to die, but it happened that a piece of meteorite debris smashed into its skull, not only did not cause fatal injuries to it, but merged into one, and the G armor parts contained in the meteorite played a catalytic role for him.

That's right, like the mid-level destroyer of black light. The G-armor can excite the Xr virus inside the corpse quite actively. Thus shortening their evolutionary cycle!

When the controller evolved, it evolved anemone-like tentacles on its back, which were able to secrete magnetic fluids containing strong acids. In this way, the wreckage of the house that pressed on it was eliminated and it was able to escape.

The special evolutionary environment has given birth to another way of attack-virus transformation!

Through the contraction of the tentacle muscles on the back, the controller is able to push the top stone to within 60 meters. The outside of the stone is coated with a catalytic liquid by the festerers. The catalytic fluid is volatilized with the air. Any virus that has been inhaled into a human body can be transformed into an Xr virus!

The mid-level controller of the plague slowly crawled like a lizard slowly moving towards its prey. Whenever the patrol light swept near it, it knew how to hide its long neck in the grass and remained motionless. The beast-like avoidance instinct makes it far superior to human scouting abilities.

When the light passed over it, the soldiers treated it like a pile of stones......

The autumn breeze at night is mixed with coolness, blowing on the land. No one felt the crisis from this eerie chill.
