Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Safe Zone

There were more zombies at the rear of the convoy, and Shen Chao saw more than 100 of them, plus the sound of gunfire coming from other parts of the convoy, Shen Chao estimated that at least 200 zombies near the convoy were approaching the convoy. He brought back the ten survivors he brought back to join the fighting elsewhere, and he himself was responsible for helping the survivors in the back of the car.

The basic platoon to the rear of the convoy are the survivors who joined the convoy on the road later, they are basically dragged with their families, although there are many people with guns in their hands, but the shooting level is uneven, not like those people in the front of the convoy, the front of the convoy are some well-organized teams, they have a unified command and a certain organization.

The result of the lack of cooperation was that the dozen or so people with guns in the tail could not stop the approach of a group of zombies with only more than 100 people. Shen Chao joined the battle almost immediately after arriving, and after knocking down a dozen zombies with the rifle in his hand, he commanded several survivors with relatively reliable shooting accuracy to stay behind the hall with him, covering the rear of the slowest moving car.

The speed of the zombies was not fast, Shen Chao killed more than 20 zombies before they got close, and when the nearest zombie was only a few meters away from them, there were only a dozen zombies left in front of him, seeing this, Shen Chao did not continue to shoot. He commanded the survivors to retreat more than a dozen meters, then turned his head and fired again.

The distance advantage of the weapons in the hands of the survivors was brought into play, and soon the last few zombies at the back of the convoy fell. Shen Chao didn't waste time, he appointed a middle-aged man who was the calmest in the battle just now to direct the survivors behind to continue to be vigilant, and then he ran to the middle of the convoy to coordinate the dispatch. The gunfire there had suddenly intensified a few seconds earlier, and the convoy had abruptly stopped moving forward.

Shen Chao rushed to the middle of the convoy as fast as he could, but the severity of the matter still exceeded his expectations. Here are 3 lickers attacking the convoy. Since they are so fast, it is difficult for these ordinary survivors to hit them. When Shen Chao arrived, there were already two survivors lying in a pool of blood.

Seeing the situation at the scene, Shen Chao hurriedly beckoned the other survivors to enter the car, although the family car of these people was not completely immune to the attacks of the lickers, but at least it was much stronger than exposing them to the outside. Shen Chao directed the survivors into the car while throwing an offensive grenade in the direction of the licker.

He certainly wasn't expecting the grenade to kill some hapless licker, his purpose was to create fear. Lickers are also intelligent, and they are reluctant to attack enemies much stronger than them head-on.

Sure enough, after the grenade exploded, the three lickers retreated a distance, and they still maintained a high-speed maneuver, which made it difficult for Shen Chao to hit them directly, Shen Chao saw this, and didn't care about them anymore, he commanded the others to continue shooting, and at the same time checked the reason why the convoy stopped.

As a large fleet with more than 100 vehicles, it is inevitable to encounter various accidents, and breaking down is one of them, Shen Chao looked at the classic car in the middle of the team and was a little speechless, he really didn't expect that the first to break down in the team would be a Ford small truck. But considering that the car looked to be at least 20 years old, he felt that it seemed like a no-brainer.

The pickup truck in front of you is a very classic F-series model from Ford, but the state of the car in front of you should obviously be more scrapped. The owner of the car was an old man with glasses who looked to be at least 60 years old. He was carrying a well-maintained double-barreled shotgun and holding the hand of his wife, who was the same age, and they were standing outside the car with apologetic faces.

"Sir, your car is blocking the vehicles behind, I can only ...... like this" Shen Chao quickly explained to the old man in front of him, and then he turned on the power mode of the nanosuit and kicked out towards the Ford car that was blocking the way. The Ford was kicked and rolled out 3-4 meters before stopping. The old man and the survivors next to him were stunned, they all turned their heads to look at Shen Chao, and to the worst thing, one of the lickers thought he saw an opportunity, and it took advantage of this opportunity to run over and attack. …,

Just when it was about to rush into the convoy, Shen Chao fired a few shots at its body, the licker lost his balance and fell to the ground, Shen Chao then quickly pulled out his saber and threw it hard, more than 1 kilogram of high-strength knives were fiercely inserted into the licker's head, and the kinetic energy carried by the knife was very huge, almost bursting the licker's unprotected brain.

After solving this obstacle in front of them, the other two lickers wandering in the distance seemed to be frightened, and they didn't know where they were running after a few swings. Shen Chao didn't chase either, he arranged for two old men who had lost their means of transportation to sit in a car behind, while he continued to guide the traffic in the convoy. Finally, after a total of nearly 10 minutes and 3 lives, the team finally entered the stadium.

What is the concept of 100 cars? Just look at the dense crowd of cars parked in the open space in the stadium in front of you, which almost fills the open space of this standard stadium. This was only completed when Shen Chao had already detailed the arrangements after entering the stadium on the road, and it was only completed with the help of Custer in the dispatch.

Otherwise, if everyone stops randomly, I am afraid that this place can only accommodate two-thirds of the vehicles in the convoy. Shen Chao was one of the last people to enter, and he led more than two dozen survivors to kill more than 200 zombies and 2 lickers at the door. They returned to the stadium only after confirming that the convoy had all entered the stadium.

After Shen Chao confirmed that the gate was locked, he commanded two light trucks to block the passage and resist the gate. With such an arrangement, even if there are thousands of zombies outside, they will not be able to shake the gate here.

In the stadium, the survivors got out of the car after confirming their safety, and quickly set up their belongings on the empty grass, on the track and even in the stands, and many of the survivors took out food and water to start replenishing their energy. Some of the particularly tired survivors even found a random spot and got ready to sleep.

Of course, Shen Chao knew that they couldn't relax yet. He grabbed the megaphone from a nearby man, jumped on the roof of a car, and began shouting at the survivors.

"Citizens, we managed to get here, but our members didn't get here in their entirety. In the battle just now, three brave men sacrificed themselves to ensure everyone's safety. We need to mourn for them first......" Shen Chao bowed his head in silence when he said this, he wasn't really sad for the three unlucky ghosts, but his current appearance was not pretentious. Hearing this, the survivors also stood up, or took off their hats, or stroked their chests, or simply lowered their heads. Whatever they actually think, now they're in silent mourning for those hapless guys.

As a first-class field agent who has traveled all over the world, Shen Chao has seen many man-made and non-man-made disasters during his mission. Civil wars, typhoons. Riot....... Therefore, he knows very well that although many disasters are terrible, the indifference of people's hearts is the murderer who kills the most in disasters.

The Resident Evil in front of him seemed to be intensifying, but Shen Chao knew that it was only a matter of time before the zombies and lickers in the city were eliminated. Without a large number of outbreaks in a short period of time, the threat of zombies has become very low. Only the lickers will take some time for the army to deal with.

However, an overall improvement in the situation cannot change the dire status quo. Until the wave of viruses is wiped out once and for all, the greatest danger to survivors is not the ugly-looking zombies and lickers. It's the scarcity of resources and the suspicion of the same kind. In previous missions, Shen Chao had even seen extremely desperate people kill his neighbors for a piece of bread!

Now, although the survivors they lead have just arrived in a safe area, many signs of problems are beginning to appear. First, not every survivor brought food and water. Shen Chao had observed, except for a few small groups that were obviously more organized and brought more food and water in their cars, the other survivors only brought a small amount of food and water. On average, I'm afraid it's only 1 or 2 days' worth. …,

"I know we're tired, but we're not completely safe yet. Now all those who have guns in their hands please stand up, I need you to disperse to the stands around and be on guard for about an hour until we arrange an order for the shifts. At the same time, the actual leaders of the survival teams that have been established here and the people in the crowd who have or have been in the military, please follow me to the center of the playground ......" Shen Chao beckoned the survivors to do as he said.

After what happened along the way, the current Shen Chao is still very prestigious among the survivors here. The survivors with guns stood up one after another, holding their weapons and food and other things, and began to walk towards the surrounding stands. At the same time, people who met the conditions he said were rushing towards the small vacant lot reserved in the center of the playground.

The vacant lot was small, probably enough to park two small trucks, and it was the space they had agreed to set aside on the road. In just a few minutes, nearly 40 people gathered here. Of course, in addition to the eligible people, there is also the female reporter and a few other unrelated people.

"I repeat, those who do not meet the conditions I have stated, please leave. Except for you, Miss Mendes. Shen Chao looked around and said that he did not let the female reporter leave, but her camera assistant was sent away.

Wait until they confirm that all the people they need have arrived. Shen Chao looked at Custer, and Custer nodded. Then both of them took off their visors at the same time, revealing their true faces.
