Chapter 142: A Warning to Humanity
Wang Qi slowly opened his eyes and rubbed the bridge of his nose a little tiredly. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe so-called night road will always meet ghosts, just now, the zombie servant he stayed at the University of Science and Technology to spy on the news finally accidentally attracted the attention of a passing corpse warrior.
Without much opportunity for justification and explanation, the corpse warrior casually smashed the zombie minions into meat sauce. Gray spirit-level undead creatures, in this organized group of undead, are almost cannon fodder-like existences, and smashing a potentially dangerous alien will not cause any trouble.
At this time, Wang Qi had already entered the new city development zone in the north of the city and settled in the façade of an unfinished commercial house.
He had been delayed in Minjiang City for too long, and it seemed that he had quieted down after several days of fruitless searches on the corpse owl's side. So Wang Qi prepared to leave here and continue north.
But just now, before his zombie servant was killed, he sent him unexpected news. It turned out that the corpse owl's silence during this period of time was accumulating strength and preparing for a large-scale operation.
And the target of the operation was not the other undead forces in Minjiang City, but the human survivor base in Fengtai County, which was seventy kilometers away.
It's not surprising that the reason why the corpse owl was able to evolve so quickly was because of the continuous supply of fresh flesh and blood from those living people in captivity in the school. Wang Qi let go of its captives, which was tantamount to cutting off its logistical supplies.
Once the source of rapid advancement is lost, the corpse lord is not to mention trying to unify the entire Minjiang City, and perhaps in the end, even its territory in Minjiang University of Science and Technology will be seized by latecomers. This is an absolutely intolerable ending for the corpse owl who is ambitious and has never suffered a setback since his debut.
As a result, it must capture more human captives in a short period of time and rebuild its feedlot. It's just that Minjiang City is already a situation of undead separation, and large-scale human groups no longer exist. And snatching the spoils of other high-level undead is not only risky, but also the benefits are not certain at all.
For example, in the expansion of the corpse owl during this time, except for the battle of the commercial pedestrian street, there was not much gain in several other places.
Well, it seems that the best option right now is to attack a sizable base of human survivors. Although there is a good defensive firepower in the large-scale base, after all, the guns and other thermal weapons made by humans are not vegetarians.
If it was before the expansion operation, the corpse lord would never dare to attack the idea of sealing the Tai County base. The flesh of a low-level undead can't withstand a dense range of bullets at all, and the undead above the soul level and even a soulflame-level powerhouse like it will also suffer a lot of damage when facing high-powered weapons such as rockets and artillery.
However, now the army under the corpse owl is not what it used to be, there are as many as fifty or sixty thousand zombies and skeletons at the lowest level alone, plus more than thirty soul-level elites, and two and a half soul-level leaders, including himself. As long as it costs a little, it is enough to conquer such a small county town.
As long as there is enough blood and food supply, it doesn't matter to the corpse owl no matter how heavy the casualties of his subordinates are, he is strong, his elites are strong, and low-level cannon fodder is now everywhere, and he can pull up a more powerful army at any time.
Moreover, during this time, the corpse owls have begun to send their subordinates to slowly collect the wandering zombies scattered in the XC area, presumably preparing to use them as the first wave of forwards to consume human ammunition.
Taking out the tablet that had just been fully charged with a solar power bank, Wang Qi opened the electronic map. My next destination is Lan City, but if you take a little detour, you can also pass through the Fengtai County base. Although he is not obligated to help them defend the city, it is still possible to warn them in advance.
Without further ado, Wang Qi packed up his little luggage, went out and picked up a cottage Harley motorcycle that was turned out of the car repair shop, and his soul was vomited, and the motorcycle instantly changed into a majestic skeleton locomotive. The engine roared like a ghost, leaving a trace of flames, and then sped away in the direction of Fengtai County.
In fact, the base of Fengtai County is not established in the urban area of Fengtai County. After all, it is densely populated and unsafe, and there is no basis for building a base at all.
The site of the Fengtai County base is the Fengtai County Grain Depot in the southeast of the county, relying on the original high-walled compound of the grain depot to accommodate the people who fled nearby. One of them, a reserve force, was absorbed by the fleeing county government leaders and became the main armed force guarding the base.
Later, as the number of people in the shelter increased, several lines of defense were temporarily expanded near the walls of the grain depot, and more young people were mobilized to join the garrison. Relying on the superiority of numbers and weapons, they cleared the wandering zombies within a kilometer radius of the grain depot, and became one of the largest and safest survivor bases in the vicinity.
Security comes not only from weapons, but most importantly from the mountains of grain in the granary. Without famine, there is stability in the hearts of the people. Although all the communication equipment has failed, it is impossible to get instructions from the central leadership. However, the leading group headed by Liu Wenjiang, deputy county magistrate, still barely managed to maintain the stability of the base.
Wang Qi parked the skeleton locomotive a kilometer away from the base and began to get off the car and walk, after all, the shape of the locomotive is really a bit shocking, in case of misunderstanding, it is not good to let the other party reward him with a shuttle of bullets.
Entering the safe area, due to the regular cleaning of the patrol, there was no trace of zombies in the vicinity, so Wang Qi put away the bone spirit armor and returned to his human form. It's just that he is dressed in a new clean casual suit, carrying a bulging travel bag, and he doesn't look like a refugee in the last days, but like a backpacker traveling alone in peacetime.
Approaching the gates of the base, where two protruding fortifications were stacked side by side with sandbags and earthen walls, a group of soldiers in camouflage uniforms were dealing with a group of ragged survivors.
Although the end times are cruel and zombies are rampant, the vitality of human beings is so strong, there are always some people who are either lucky or have a certain strength who can persist in surviving under many crises, and they will be the foundation and hope of human development in the future.
Getting closer, a soldier with a gun ordered Wang Qi and the survivors to gather. A checkpoint was set up between the two fortifications, and survivors lined up to pass through them, and they were tested and registered by special personnel.
Although Wang Qi knew that natural disasters and plagues and those undead creatures were not contagious, for a well-established base system, a relatively cautious way of behaving was the guarantee of safety.
