Chapter 36: The Tide of Corpses

The next day, after breakfast, the soldiers all set out on their usual mission: hunting the walking corpses and rescuing the survivors. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Today's weather is nice, the sun is shining, and it feels warm, but not hot. The breeze gently brushes your face, and you feel a touch of comforting coolness. In the distance, swaths of tall trees rustled in the wind.

The scenery in spring is truly beautiful and pleasant. What a wonderful experience it would be to sit down and enjoy a cup of strong tea and enjoy the scenery in the distance!

However, Luo Chen didn't have this good opportunity. He was leading a company of more than 100 soldiers on a sweeping mission.

Yesterday half a day, the progress of the sweeping mission was slow, and it was only just deep into the edge of the city. The main reason is that the large number of ant colonies consumes a large number of troops, which makes the number of people who perform the sweep insufficient, and ultimately leads to slow progress.

Luo Chen walked at the front of the team, with a Tang knife behind his back and a 95 rifle in his left hand. Although Luo Chen has not undergone strict shooting training, his fourth-order perception and flexibility make his shooting level equivalent to that of a professional sniper, and he can shoot headshots with guns.

The walking corpses running on the street in front of "Puff Puff" were shot in the head by Luo Chen, a bullet, and a walking corpse.

"Sir's marksmanship is so accurate! With you, we haven't fired a single shot all the way down! The platoon commander beside Luo Chen said with envy and helplessness.

Hearing this, Luo Chen just smiled slightly. In fact, his heart was happy, his marksmanship was so good, even he couldn't believe it.

Looking at their resentful eyes, Luo Chen had no choice but to say, "Okay, okay, don't rob your business, I'll just watch from the sidelines." ”

Ahead, several more walking corpses ran over, their eyes brutal. If they had been allowed to get closer, it is conceivable that the victims would most likely have been dismembered and eaten.

With guns in their hands, the soldiers are not afraid at all. Seeing that Luo Chen really didn't interfere, the soldiers immediately raised their guns and started shooting, for fear that Luo Chen would rob them of their business.

"Dada"

"Poof", several walking corpses were knocked to the ground by the rain of bullets.

Walking corpses on the run are not prone to headshots. So although two walking corpses were knocked to the ground, they did not die.

"Bang Bang" As two bullets were fired, the two walking corpses lying on the ground were shot in the head.

"Alas" still doesn't work, the platoon commander sighed. You still can't shoot your head with a gun, and you're only prone to headshots when the walking corpse stops moving.

"Don't be discouraged, practice more, and you can catch up with me." Luo Chen on the side comforted.

However, the soldiers gave Luo Chen a resentful look, "Please, this is not something that can be practiced." ”

Seeing their strange reactions, Luo Chen shrugged his shoulders and said that he couldn't help you.

The sweep went smoothly and there were no tricky problems like yesterday's ant colony.

The company that Luo Chen was in was a sharp knife unit for the sweeping operation, so it was at the forefront of all the sweeping squads.

At this moment, Luo Chen and the others had already taken the lead in coming to the center of the city.

"Sir, no, why are there no walking corpses all of a sudden?" The middle-aged company commander swept his eyes around, but he didn't find a single walking corpse. If it were normal, there would have been a significant number of walking corpses rushing towards them by now.

"Hmm", Luo Chen nodded and didn't reply. Instead, he kept his head down and pondered.

At this moment, Luo Chen suddenly thought of the fourth-order walking corpse, which was the fourth-order walking corpse he encountered when escorting Cao Yu and the others away. At that time, because the situation did not allow it, he did not kill him.

Therefore, Luo Chen guessed that the walking corpses would also huddle together, like an ant colony, with a high-level walking corpse leading them. And this leader may be the fourth-order walking corpse. Luo Chen also thought that it might be a fifth-order walking corpse, but at present, there are very few fifth-order creatures, so it can be said that there are none, and the fifth-order queen ant is an exception, it basically has no attack power.

"Fourth-order walking corpses, it's not difficult to deal with, but what I'm afraid of is the huge number of corpses." Luo Chen thought in his heart. This is a small city with a population of more than 300,000, and there are about 100,000 walking corpses left, excluding the dead and those who starved to death. And in the sweep operation, twenty or thirty thousand walking corpses were removed, so there are still tens of thousands of walking corpses in the city.

There are tens of thousands of people, and it looks like there are no edges. And with tens of thousands of corpses, you can imagine how terrifying it would be.

"Notify the rear immediately, and let all the teams of the sweep quickly return to the hotel." Luo Chen said solemnly to the correspondent who followed closely beside him. He wanted all the soldiers to retreat to the steel walls of the hotel, and if the corpse tide hit, they could rely on the steel wall to slowly consume the corpse tide.

。。。。。。

In an armored command vehicle that was driving at a low speed in the rear, Cao Yu received Luo Chen's order.

"Immediately inform all the squads and quickly return to the hotel." Cao Yu said solemnly.

Immediately, the communicator next to him, who was looking at the (army green laptop), repeated the command of Cao Yu through the headset.

On the heavy laptop screen is a map of the small city. On the map, there are green dots scattered in half of the city near the command vehicle, and each green dot represents a squad. On the other side, there is not a single green dot, which means that it has not been swept away.

Suddenly, the communicator in the command car shouted in a low voice: "Sir, a squad on the left flank has disappeared!" "On the computer screen, a green dot on the left first flashed, and then it turned into a striking red dot.

Hearing this, Cao Yu was slightly surprised, hurriedly pulled over the notebook, and looked at the screen. Sure enough, a red dot appeared on the screen, and a platoon of soldiers may have been gone.

"Let Luo Chen go over to support immediately!" Cao Yu was so anxious that he called out Luo Chen's name.

。。。。。。。

On the other side, Luo Chen, who learned the news, was also anxious, and he might lose a soldier's life every second. Luo Chen immediately took off and rose diagonally into the air like a superman.

On his feet, he was an ordinary pair of combat boots, but the sole of the shoes was inlaid with a thick steel plate. These shoes are specially made by Luo Chen himself, and with this pair of steel plates, Luo Chen can more easily control the posture of flying.

After quickly climbing to the height of about five floors, he immediately changes his posture so that his whole body is at an angle to the horizon. In this way, the vertical upward component of the backward resistance of the air can be balanced with the downward gravitational force.

Luo Chen flew forward quickly in a flat flight posture, shuttling along the streets, shuttling between buildings, and passing quickly like a bow and arrow.

The fierce wind whistled in my ears, and buildings were quickly pulled back, flying street after street.

About a few minutes later, Luo Chen flew almost half of the city.

Suddenly, there was a black wave between the buildings in front of me. At the same time, from a distance of one or two hundred meters, Luo Chen smelled a strong rancid smell.

"It's really a zombie tide!" Just as Luo Chen had guessed before.

As far as the eye could see, there were walking corpses in tattered clothes and covered in dirt. These walking corpses are basically first-order walking corpses, and they are already able to move like ordinary people. Although their speed is not as high as that of the first-order human evolutionaries, they are more powerful.
