XXIV Confluence
Just a second before the zombie claws that flew behind him caught Zhao Xinghua, there was a muffled sound of "poof", and a nylon riot net lassoed the last zombie and fell to the ground, and then someone stepped forward and slashed down the fire axe in his hand, cutting off the zombie head that had been torn off the net rope and was about to be drilled out. Another person next to him came over and stabbed to death with a dagger and the zombie in the shopping cart next to Zhao Xinghua.
Zhao Xinghua breathed a sigh of relief, and when he looked up, it turned out to be the deputy captain Luo Guoquan and the sniper Ma Jincheng.
Luo Guoquan pulled Zhao Xinghua up and said:
"I escaped with Ma Jincheng, I lived in a high-rise building away from these two roads yesterday, and I saw that this supermarket was going to come over today, and there were already two groups of people who entered here before you came in last night. We saw you go in first when we were still a street away. Ah Cheng and I hurried over to meet you, and just as we approached the entrance, we heard a gunshot, and then there was a crash of something, and I came in immediately when I knew something was happening, and I just saw you being chased by two zombies. ”
"But captain, you're really good, in front of two mutated zombies like this, you can run to the door and almost kill one." Ma Jincheng said beside him.
"We're all fateful." Zhao Xinghua said, if it weren't for the two of them who arrived and hung up here, if the two of them came in before him, the two of them would be in danger.
Ma Jincheng didn't understand Zhao Xinghua's words, thinking that it was about escaping from the sea of corpses.
Luo Guoquan went to the door first to observe, and the noise here did not attract other zombies nearby. Then seal the door and return to the two of them.
"Are there any zombies upstairs?"
"There will be no more, there should be a very clear sense of hierarchy and territory among zombies, where there are high-level zombies, ordinary zombies will not appear."
Zhao Xinghua continued to explain.
"This is equivalent to the lair of these mutant zombies, a place for them to hunt, and ordinary zombies are not allowed to enter."
Ma Jincheng glanced at the two killed zombies on the ground and said:
"These two guys still have a very high status, and there are very few other zombies within a hundred meters of here."
The three of them came upstairs again.
"Oh my God! Captain, you've already killed two of them here, and you can kill two more of them under the siege of four! ”
Ma Jincheng was extremely shocked when he saw two zombies whose skulls were crushed and fell into the water.
He knew how powerful this thing was, a few days ago in prison, two of these zombies almost wiped out the formation of three convoys, and only a few escaped. After they arrived, Zhao Xinghua dared to face this kind of zombie alone, which had already surprised him, and now he saw that there were four besieging him, he killed two and fled downstairs, and he could almost kill another one, which made him admire. This captain's combat effectiveness is really powerful.
Under the irradiation of three flashlights, the body of another zombie was found, which was just the one that was shot in the head by Zhao Xinghua.
Ma Jincheng and Luo Guoquan didn't know what to say.
Just now, Zhao Xinghua was ambushed and besieged by five zombies, killed three, and the fourth was almost killed. They only heard one gunshot, and the others were all killed by the iron rod in Zhao Xinghua's hand, and this thing could almost escape before being aimed at the gun, and the troops had reported earlier that this thing could not be killed with a gun. The two of them began to face the captain in front of them, different from before, they really admired Zhao Xinghua from the bottom of their hearts.
Zhao Xinghua only really established his prestige in the hearts of the two of them until this moment.
The three of them soon found a lot of human fragments in the corner, the ones who came in before Zhao Xinghua. These zombies are very cunning, and dragging the corpse inside, it is easier to confuse the humans who enter. In the dark and rancid space, the sneak attack group of five mutant zombies attacked a monster like Zhao Xinghua, and it was really difficult for others to escape. What's even more unimaginable is that he was almost successfully killed by Zhao Xinghua.
A few people quickly picked out some food and water on the second floor, and went directly to the clothing and daily necessities area on the third floor, where the smell was too bad.
The military uniforms of Luo Guoquan and Ma Jincheng are also tattered, and Zhao Xinghua has changed into a labor uniform, and the steel helmet on his head has also been thrown away, and replaced with a yellow construction site helmet. The backpacks of the two are still there, throw away some radio supplies, now there is no logistics, there is no base, there is no place to charge those satellite positioning, cameras, walkie-talkies and other equipment, it is still cumbersome to hang on the body, not as important as food and water.
Ma Jincheng's sniper rifle was not brought out, he was an ordinary Type 95 rifle, and there were a few magazines, which were obtained by killing a few zombies mutated by warriors on the road, and he took the initiative to give two to Zhao Xinghua. Zhao Xinghua also took the initiative to ask Ma Jincheng, a national first-class sniper who was specially transferred to the original squad, for technical problems and tips on shooting. Ma Jincheng did not reserve it, and explained some design skills to Zhao Xinghua, of course, the most important thing is live ammunition.
Luo Guoquan rummaged through some things in the daily necessities area alone, and made some climbing and rappelling tools.
Early the next morning, Luo Guoquan woke up early to wake up the two of them, and whispered:
"It doesn't seem right, I just looked down from the window, there are a lot more zombies on the street, and it's not easy to get out like I did when I came in yesterday."
"It's that the high-level zombies here are all dead, and they have no deterrent."
"How do the zombies know that all the high-level zombies here are dead?"
"Maybe there's some kind of connection between them, maybe the zombies here go out to patrol the territory from time to time, relying on smell like animals or leaving other characteristics of high-level zombies."
Zhao Xinghua explained to Ma Jincheng.
"Let's get ready to go." Luo Guoquan stood in the corner of the window and looked outside.
The three of them cleaned up briefly, looked at each other, and they all felt very funny.
The three of them were dressed in blue and white overalls, wearing yellow hard hats on their heads, Zhao Xinghua was carrying a crowbar behind him, Ma Jincheng had a fire axe hanging on his backpack, and Luo Guoquan had a large duckbill hammer pinned to his waist. If it weren't for the fact that everyone had a Type 95 rifle hanging on their bodies, it would be three migrant workers who were ready to go to work on the construction site, where would they still have the demeanor of the gendarmerie special service team of the former Sui City Garrison Command.
Before coming out, Zhao Xinghua asked Ma Jincheng to cut off the arm of a killed zombie with an axe, and then put on rubber gloves and held the palm in his hand.
Ma Jincheng said: "Captain, do you still want to send it back to the base laboratory now?" ”
"No, maybe we're going to have to rely on this thing to get out of here." Zhao Xinghua said.
Zhao Xinghua first handed his arm out of the exit of the supermarket, and sure enough, it was similar to what he thought, those zombies wandering around the neighborhood felt something, and immediately shook it into the distance, just walked a few dozen meters, and did not continue to leave.
Ma Jincheng was puzzled and asked, "Captain, what is the truth of this?" ”
Zhao Xinghua explained: "There is a certain sense of induction among zombies, especially the natural avoidance sense of the lower level for high-level evolution, just like this situation among animals, small animals will take the initiative to leave the range of the beast, even if they don't see it, they will dodge. ”
"It's a pity that these high-level zombies have been dead for a night, and the residual power in their limbs has been reduced a lot, if they were taken out yesterday, those zombies would have left even farther." Zhao Xinghua had some regrets.
