South City Base, East City Gate

"It's back, the people from the Pengcheng Chamber of Commerce are back!"

"The search and rescue team is back!"

"Go check it out!"

"The people of the Li family are back!"

Near the East City Gate, countless ordinary survivors and strangers who heard the news rushed out of the East City Gate and looked at the convoy slowly approaching in the distance.

The city guards guarding the gates did not stop the surging crowd except to maintain order, because they were in the same mood as the other survivors.

Nervousness, uneasiness, worry, and fear of some kind of foreboding.

"Boom ......"

The large convoy approached, and when it came to a halt near the city gate, the paradoxes in the convoy and some of the ordinary warriors in full armor left the field, their faces extremely heavy.

The absence of the many survivors in the convoy made their hearts sink slowly, but there was still the last glimmer of hope in their hearts.

The words of a leading powerhouse, however, completely extinguished all hopes.

"After our repeated search and rescue, and let the stranger detect, it has been confirmed that the ...... in the south city is in the middle of the city."

"There are no survivors left!"

The crowd was silent for a moment, and then suddenly boiled, or knelt on the ground in pain, or wept bitterly, or was angry, or grief-stricken.

Maybe in this day and age, people are indifferent. After the end of the world, one's own food and clothing cannot be guaranteed, and he has no intention of paying attention to the life and death of others.

However, when the survivors suddenly heard that there was no longer a living human in the southern city, there were still many people who had an instant mental breakdown.

In Nancheng, excluding the surrounding counties, there are about 2.7 million permanent residents and floating population.

The Nancheng base belongs to the largest survivor base near the Nancheng, of which there are about 400,000 survivors in the Nancheng.

The remaining more than 300,000 people are all survivors gathered around the Nancheng base.

During this period of time, after the all-out search and rescue of the four major forces in Nancheng, there are only more than 40,000 people.

In other words, even if you add some survivors who fled to other survivor bases around Nancheng, only one-fifth of the humans in the entire Nancheng survived.

What's more, in the Nancheng base, there are many survivors' relatives who are still trapped in Nancheng. Although the chances of being rescued are slim, there is still hope.

Right now......

In the crowd, some mercenaries chatted, not because they were cold-blooded and ruthless, but because they had experienced such a day of mercenary life, tying their heads to the waistband of their pants, and often facing the death of their teammates, they would naturally not be so vulnerable.

"Alas, there are nearly two million people in Nancheng, and they are gone!"

"In the past 20 days, the four major forces of the base have mobilized the whole city to rescue them, and they have only rescued tens of thousands of people."

"This time, the zombies in Nancheng are abnormal, if it weren't for Li Yunhao's main force in the deputy city, coupled with the full support of Ye Canglan's deputy city lord, I'm afraid that even these tens of thousands of people would not be able to be rescued."

"Yes, the current Nancheng is already a veritable dead city!"

"However, what happened in Nancheng, now the mercenaries in the entire Nancheng dare not enter Nancheng."

"I heard from some people that those zombies didn't know what was crazy, and suddenly began to hunt all the mutant beasts and zombies in the southern city."

"The mutant beasts were basically extinct in Nancheng as early as ten days ago, and now even humans have disappeared."

"If those humans are transformed into zombies, then ......"

The mercenaries shuddered at the thought of more than two million zombies gathering and engulfing and devouring all the creatures in their field of vision.

……

West City Gate

The news that none of the survivors in the southern city had survived quickly spread here, causing many ordinary survivors and supernatural people to shake.

"Hey, look over there, it looks like there's a convoy coming!"

"It seems that it is true, looking at the size of this convoy, there are at least hundreds of people!"

"I don't know if it's from the mercenary group?"

"I'll see!"

A certain person with long-range detection ability, using his ability, his eyes continue to expand, and finally ......

"it!"

The Adeptus had been using the Ability for less than a second before it felt as if it had been hit hard, and the whole person flew upside down for several meters, and sat on the ground with his butt.

"Hey, Kuroko, what the hell did you see, as for acting so exaggerated?"

Kuroko's companion stepped forward to help him up, only to find Kuroko covered in cold sweat and bloodshot eyes.

"There are 100 people in that team, and all of them are Abnormal Abilities, and they are all Level 2 Abilities."

"A hundred Level 2 Abilities?"

"Tsk, in the Nancheng base, I'm afraid that only the four major forces, as well as a few large mercenary groups, have this kind of background, and send hundreds of abilities at once!"

"But even if that's the case, you won't fly a few meters away, why don't I know, you still have such acting skills?"

"No, after I used my ability to detect the past, the people in the convoy actually discovered my existence in an instant, and it was everyone!"

"At that time, I was almost frightened, but I saw that there were no less than 50 people in the convoy, and I didn't know what method to use to attack me directly."

"I felt that those attacks, even if they were thousands of meters away, could to slag!"

"If it weren't for a leader who stopped me at a critical time, I wouldn't have flown out upside down, but would have been blasted directly!"

The two glanced at each other, broke out in a cold sweat, and quickly fled into the crowd and disappeared.

The surrounding mercenaries all heard the conversation between the two, and most of them were skeptical, after all, except for some special abilities, they had not yet seen the existence of the ability to detect detection.

A handful of mercenaries didn't believe it at all, but they remained cautious.

Only a few people who didn't know whether they were alive or dead directly used their abilities to detect, but they were blown away on the spot and fled into the crowd in embarrassment.

"Boom ......"

Someone probed several times in a row, which seemed to make the people in the convoy impatient, and one of the strangers was directly blown into a blood mist.

The wafting blood mist and the pervasive smell of blood seemed to confirm the previous man's words, and some of the mercenaries' faces changed and fled directly into the southern city.

Why run away?

Nonsense, dare to kill people at the gate of the Nancheng base, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a bad comer, didn't you see that the city guards all went to inform their superiors to go?

The convoy gradually approached, and the city guards at the city gate stepped forward to stop it, but fortunately, the convoy did not mean to break through the city gate.

Yun Xu stepped out of the car, and the combat uniform on his body was not close to his body like the rest of the Ability Clan, but a looser and softer style.

After a long period of practicing body forging and meditation, coupled with taking level 3 genetic optimization potions, Yun Xu's momentum was even stronger.

The ability team stood neatly behind Yun Xu, they were not in a state of battle, they were not full of evil and murderous aura, but they still gave people full of deterrent.

"Hiss"

All the mercenaries gasped and stared at Yun Xu and his party in horror.

These mercenaries are all people who look for food in the piles of zombies and mutant beasts every day, and crawl on the cliff of death, so they can naturally see something different.

Neat discipline, an almost connected aura, vigilance at all times, and a natural iron-blooded temperament......

This is clearly a well-trained army, a well-disciplined army, an army bathed in the blood of countless monsters.

The most important thing is that although there are only 100 people in this army, each of them is an ability with level 2 ability.

At the Nancheng base, there's no insurmountable chasm between ability levels.

It is not uncommon for a Level 2 Ability to besiege a Level 3 Ability, and for a Level 1 to kill a Level 2 Ability, not counting some abilities that have no combat power at all.

Therefore, in Nancheng, there are basically no famous lone rangers, and even if there are, those who really have power will not take it too seriously.

Is a Level 3 Ability Great?

I'll besiege you with a hundred level 1 ranged attack abilities, and you'll either run away or die.

What the? A hundred Level 1 Adepts can't do it?

That's five hundred first-level abilities!

Five hundred is not enough? That's a thousand!

Once the ability is awakened, it has level 1 strength, doesn't require any resources, and is completely low-cost.

Not to mention the level 1 ability in the Nancheng base, there are always tens of thousands, and the fire can't kill you a crispy ability?

Consumption can consume you!

However, most of the mercenaries present could feel that this army of supernatural beings might not be able to be eliminated by the so-called siege.
