Chapter 218 - The Situation in the New Town District

Zhou Zhiyuan looked into the distance with a telescope: "Why do the developers of Nanhai Province always love to fill in the sea?" I took a look at the three artificial islands along the shore of this new city, but they all seem to be unfinished projects, and even the foundation has not been excavated, only a few modular houses and large machinery and implements where workers live."

Fang Xuan, who happened to face the direction of the coast, replied disdainfully: "The island reclamation project in Nanhai Province is a radical means of capitalists to collect money, without any concern for the ecological environment and local people's feelings, the people here originally rely on the sea for food, and always want to build resort centers and cruise ship terminals to make money.

Chen Guohao, who was controlling the drone, suddenly said in surprise: "Huh! Unexpectedly, there were still survivors alive in the mansion complex, and they had the brains to plant all the original turf of the sky garden on the top floor with food, raincoats and canvases to collect rainwater."

The whole mansion complex is composed of five 36-storey buildings, each with a bridge connecting each building on the middle floor, and each of the two oversized houses on each floor, so each home is lit on three sides and equipped with a large balcony garden, and the top floor is a sky garden with large turf and landscape vegetation, as well as several pavilions and large pools, but now all the plants that were originally landscaped have been replanted as food.

Zhou Zhiyuan pointed to the picture and said: "You see, the garden balconies of every high-rise house have also been changed to like the roof, all the places with soil have been planted with vegetables and potatoes or sweet potatoes, and the pavilions and trellises have been pulled with raincoats or waterproof fabrics to store water in the fish ponds, and it seems that the number of people in that group should be quite a lot from the planting area of all the balconies of the five buildings."

Xie Dongcheng looked at the picture and said: "The appearance of these five buildings is all smooth tempered glass, the garden balcony of each household is staggered from the upstairs and downstairs, and each room is a high-ceilinged room type, so the sunlight and rain can reach the balcony of each room evenly, and the smooth exterior can prevent the climbing of the corpse, as long as the passage up is blocked, it is the best place to take refuge in the city."

Chen Guohao operated it on his notebook: "According to the system statistics of the infrared thermal imager I designed, there are hundreds of survivors in these five buildings, and there are people moving in each house from the roof to the floor where the empty bridge is located."

Zhou Zhiyuan thought for a moment and said: "We have to find a way to contact the survivors over there, and we also have to inform the military to be ready to pick up and transport them by air at any time, it is possible that the survivors in this city can only rely on us to move around the city to find out."

Under the search and rescue of special drones, this new urban area in the northwest of the provincial capital has found four other surviving gathering places in addition to the mansion community just now.

Three of them are artificial islands located in the sea, shaped like the sun, moon and stars, and the three islands close to each other have many workers' combination houses, and from the ground next to the combination houses, there are several square green vegetable fields, you can guess that there are many survivors on each island, as long as they seal the only entrance to the island, the sea-crossing bridge is very safe, not to mention that the bridge is at least more than 300 meters long.

The other is the newly built municipal police headquarters in the provincial capital, which not only has a whole solar power plant on the roof, but also several high-power wind turbines in the rear parking lot, and the perimeter of the police station is all pulled with tall barbed wire and horses, from the traces of flesh and blood on it and a large number of bones outside, it can be guessed that the survivors in the police station should also be hundreds of people.

Chen Guohao typed a series of instructions into his notebook: "I have set the map and route of this urban area, and these two drones will autonomously search the roofs of each building until there is only enough power left to return home, according to the large-capacity storage motor we carried, the storage of electricity should be enough to complete the search of this urban area."

Zhang Hongda asked in surprise: "Master Hao, when did you change the navigation software of the drone to be so automated?" Isn't that just a matter of putting on batteries when they get back on the road, and the rest of the rest is left to rest?"

Chen Guohao nodded as he typed the code, which was an answer.

Zhou Zhiyuan looked at the map and said to himself: "In fact, the military can first send troops and war materials to those artificial islands with landing craft, especially the large artificial island off the coast of the passenger port, which not only has wind and solar power generation equipment, but also has only one entrance to the island, which is very suitable for attacking the bridgehead and logistics base of the provincial capital. The range of the 155-mm self-propelled guns on that island can hit most of the administrative areas of the entire province with ordinary shells!"

At this time, the military sent an encrypted message through the satellite data link, which said that a drone mounted with four air-to-ground missiles had arrived above their location, and as long as the military's encrypted terminal could take over the control of the drone, Zhou Zhiyuan flipped down the military tablet attached to his chest and connected the drone to enter the command to observe at a fixed point in the central old city area.

With a "bang", the 12.7mm anti-materiel sniper rifle held by Fang Xuan emitted a tongue of fire that was not very obvious, except for the rest of the sniper team, they quickly picked up the binoculars and looked in the direction where she fired, and on a wide balcony, a stout and mixed humanoid with black hair fell to the ground, its head and one-third of its body had been bombarded by large-caliber bullets, and the strange thing was that the mutilated body was still shaking on the ground.

Fang Xuan raised his head and said with a puzzled expression: "It's strange, how can there be a vajra orangutan in the house, and that size is bigger than what I saw in the zoo before."

Xie Dongcheng took the binoculars and said to himself in a heavy tone: "The body of the vajra orangutan was eaten up by its kind just now, it should have run out of the zoo, and most of the animals in the zoo in the big city will be eaten up by the living corpses, why is it that it appears in the place where humans live now, and the habits have not changed at all."

Zhou Zhiyuan asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?" Isn't it just a few orangutans?"

Xie Dongcheng explained with a solemn face: "Orangutans are generally 2 or 30 group life actions, just now its kind is like us humans eating whole chickens with their left hand holding the chicken and right hand to tear the meat, and still maintains the habit of intelligent animals, but the abnormal size and mixed rotten wounds indicate that it is a corpse animal that has been attacked by living corpses, and I am worried that it is an incomprehensible new species."
