Chapter 8: Solanavirus
United Nations elite investigator Gary, deputy sheriff Rick of a small American town, and Chen Wu, an elite cadet of a military academy in China.
Three people who would never have crossed paths in their lives were now sitting in the same car, and they didn't have much to say, all they had in their hearts was heaviness and a fear that was almost torn apart.
Chen Wu really couldn't sleep, got up, took out the guns in his bag one by one and disassembled them, and then oiled, wiped the ashes, and pressed the bullets well, so as not to jam at the critical moment, he didn't want to take his life because of such a mistake! Gary and Rick don't want that either.
"Chen used to be a soldier, right?" Rick asked.
"It's not like that, it's just studying in a military school, and this time I went abroad, I didn't expect to encounter such a thing." Naturally, it is impossible for Chen Wu to say that he came here inexplicably, and it is impossible to tell them that you are actually characters from the movie, Gary, your real name is Brad Pitt or something, so he may have to be kicked out of the car as a psychopath.
Rick smiled: "That must be a student with outstanding results, and the combat effectiveness of the squadron is terrifying." ”
Chen Wu muttered in his heart Yes, back then, Mr. Peng's millet plus rifle knocked you to your knees.
After checking the guns one by one, Chen Wucai said in a deep voice: "Rick, and Gary!" We can't gamble our lives on Atlanta, I don't know much about the city, but that doesn't prevent me from guessing if the city has been taken over by zombies? So, shouldn't we also make second-hand preparations, such as water and food, guns and bullets are not edible? ”
Chen Wu silently glanced at the arms warehouse in his mind, there was no food in it, but he also saw a peachwood sword, and the price was not cheap, so he couldn't help but curse secretly, the zombies of the American emperor are not the kind of zombies in China who wear ugly Qing Dynasty clothes and have big braids and can only bounce, can it be useful with a peachwood sword? Why isn't there more than Lin Zhengying in the warehouse to exchange for him?
Gary said: "Chen, you're right, I prepared a lot of supplies on the way back to Boston, but they weren't enough, and I was targeted by those three zombies because I got out of the car to find supplies." ”
The mechanical voice in his head had already given Chen Wu a hint, the low-level zombies who were called Walker, and the middle-level zombies who were called Zombies, so what were the high-level zombies? Is it stronger, faster, more brutal, and spreads the virus faster?
Gary reminded, "Rick, if you see a grocery store or something on the side of the road, just say it, let's stop and get some supplies, if you get trapped by zombies by then, instead of being bitten to death, you will starve to death." ”
Rick muttered, "Then I'd rather starve myself than be bitten to death by that thing!" Gary, do you know where these zombies came from? ”
"It's not a secret either, but I can tell you that it's a virus called 'Solanum', which is said to have first started spreading in India. I'm going to get back to Boston and get my family to safety before I investigate. "We know pretty little about this damn thing right now, and there's no way to deal with it." ”
Chen Wu listened to Gary in silence as Rick spotted a gas station on the side of the road and got out of the car with guns in hand.
"Chen, the power of the Glock-18 in your hand seems to be surprisingly small, could it be modified? If it's a little farther away, I'm afraid it won't be enough to blow the heads of these dogs. Gary looked at the Glock pistol that Chen Wu was carrying on his waist and said in a deep voice.
"Hmm!" Chen Wu understood this, the gun seemed to be deliberately weakened by the system, and when he shot at the zombie chasing Gary, he almost put the muzzle of the gun against its head, so the bullet was enough to blow its head.
Chen Wu was holding an M37 shotgun in his hand. This gun is also from the hands of the American imperialists, it was created in 1937, it is powerful and terrifying, and it is enough to beat the heads of zombies into watermelons with one shot.
The three of them stood away very tacitly, almost everyone was about two meters apart, this distance was enough for them to echo each other, if one side was attacked by zombies, the other two could also quickly come to the rescue.
The small gas station was already in shambles, but thankfully there were two barrels full of petrol that had not been removed by the refugees, which could be used as a backup.
Rick slowly opened the door to the gas station supermarket, the glass on the door shattered to the ground, and his feet clicked on it.
This sound alarmed a zombie in the small supermarket, its clothes were in tatters, and its mouth let out a low strange scream, because it could not convert the air into oxygen, and the air poured into its lungs to form this terrible sound, and when it heard the sound, it immediately staggered towards the three of them.
"Don't use a gun, this is a gas station, not to mention attracting more zombies, it may cause an explosion." Gary said, pulling a machete from his waist, "This thing is so much easier to deal with than the two who are chasing me!" ”
With that, Gary stepped forward and stabbed the zombie through the bridge of its nose with ease, causing its entire head to be pierced.
The only way to deal with zombies is to attack their heads, and this Solano virus will bring them back to life, and then look for prey, especially humans, and after biting, will infect humans into their own kind. Those who were more fortunate were dismembered by the zombies, and those who were unlucky became walking dead.
The zombie's brains and black plasma flew out of his head and fell to the ground, and Chen Wu's stomach twitched for a while, almost vomiting out the canned meat he ate last night.
After reading this, he really didn't want to eat meat anymore, but meat was rich in energy and protein, and if he didn't eat meat, he wouldn't have the strength to deal with zombies.
Gary rushed all the way back from Texas, I don't know how many zombies he killed, slaughtering this zombie is a piece of cake, but Rick and Chen Wu are extremely uncomfortable, and they almost can't help but vomit.
"It's good to get used to it, they're not human, although they have the appearance of a human. Kill a few more zombies, and you'll get used to it, no, it's numbness, because you find that you can't kill all these things. Gary said gloomily, leaving Chen Wu and Rick silent.
The small supermarket was already in a mess, apparently the crowd who fled here had looted it, but fortunately, there was finally something missing, Chen Wu got a few pieces of chocolate, which was a good thing, replenishing human body calories, and at the same time, he also got half a Marlboro cigarette.
Rick found a few bottles of juice and water, and Gary got some snacks and jam, both of which were not staple foods, but at this time, no one would be picky.
"Iron pry, this is a good thing, it's made of steel bar, and it's very easy to fight zombies." Gary also found an iron pry that was used to pry doors or pry some stone slabs and manhole covers.
It's sturdy, and it's heavy enough, and its head is still curved, and the front is smoothed and sharp, and it can pierce a zombie's head in one go.
Chen Wu now has 1110 GP points, and he can spend some to exchange for a cold weapon, but there is no need for it now, wait until there are more GP points, and then exchange it! The cold weapons in the warehouse are all made of cold steel, which is a secret skill that can be truly sharpened like clay.
Gary and Brad Pitt's characters in the movie are a little different, probably anxious about the safety of their families, so they seem a little irritable and restless, and they don't have the calmness of the characters in the movie.
Chen Wu filled all the food in his pocket, then threw it back into the car, and put two barrels of gasoline in the trunk.
"Does the flames work for these guys?" Chen Wu asked.
"It's useless, unless you can burn their heads, even if you cut off their heads, that head will survive on its own if it is not harmed, and even hurt you until it completely rots." Gary said.
Chen Wu secretly swallowed his saliva, it seems that it is really not easy to live, I hope that the voice in his head will release some simple tasks to him, so that he can earn GP points, otherwise, he will not be sure of living. He is not a blind person, and he will not think that if he is an elite cadet in the military academy, he will definitely be able to play in this world full of zombies, unity, courage, wisdom, and strength are all indispensable.
A protagonist in "The Walking Dead", a protagonist in "World War Z", somewhat gave him a little confidence to survive.
"The Solaman virus makes bacteria and microorganisms avoid it, so these zombies seem to be in a vacuum at all times, and it is really not easy to rot." Gary added again, throwing the gun into the car, "Guys, get in the car, let's go, it's not far from Atlanta." ”
Rick and Chen Wu also got into the car one after another, and then Gary drove on to Atlanta.
"We're all lucky, our companions are all experienced in combat, otherwise we might not have been able to get to Atlanta so easily." Gary laughed, "I'm a UN investigator, Rick is a sergeant, and Chen is an elite military academy. ”
Gary finally revealed his identity at this time, but in this world where order collapsed, all secrets seemed to be insignificant.
Along the way, I occasionally saw that there would be one or two zombies on the road or in the fields, staggering aimlessly.
Chen Wu thought in his heart that if he was really going to die, then he would shoot him in the head, even if he died, he couldn't become that kind of thing.
Chinese have the saying that they fall into the ground and become a zombie, not to mention that Chinese don't want to, even Americans don't want to!
Chen Wu saw Atlanta, just ahead.
There are abandoned vehicles on the road, and another road is even crowded with vehicles, all of which are covered with dust, apparently abandoned for a long time.
Chen Wu vaguely felt that something was not quite right.
