It's another weekend of rotation.

Su Hao drove the SUV back to the city. The landscape has barely changed along the way———— dense flow of unmanned vehicles has become a sculpture on a viaduct, the stench of rotting flesh still wafts over the city, and the unsettling silence exudes in the empty buildings.

Zhou Chen stayed in the laboratory to continue his unfinished research.

He always felt that the verification of black particles was still at the surface stage, and Su Hao was not crazy enough to turn everyone into so-called "bees". As of yesterday, 317 team members have been injected with their own blood. He does not intend to further expand the immunized population on this basis. The KD01 Institute has received information indicating that the military already has a formula for immunizations, but they have not yet had time to distribute them to the population around the area. According to the USB flash drive formula left by Xu Yi, an officer of the research institute, Su Hao has tried to produce more than 100 standard units of immune drugs.

These elixirs are completely different from Su Hao's blood, they only produce immunity in the injector's body, and they cannot have a natural strengthening effect. Taking Silver Bone on the basis of immunity can only increase bone strength, and cannot become a strong person in the true sense. If you want to increase your muscles, you must also take the corresponding level of strengthening potions.

With these immune elixirs as a disguise, Su Hao was able to conceal a series of strange effects produced by the prototype elixir after being taken by himself, and he could also explain the current situation that more than 300 team members were enhancers.

The military is not going to abandon the city. They will always come back.

Because, the most important combat power against the ever-evolving monster group can only be to strengthen people

Everything is the same in the small building.

When Su Hao walked into the hall on the first floor, Han Jing greeted him first and hugged his neck with joy on his face. This feeling is different from the love between him and Xinyan, but the family affection between brother and sister. For Han Jing, the meaning of Su Hao's existence is not only to save his life from the mouth of a zombie, but also to be a brother who can be relied on, respected, and relied on.

Su Hao smiled and touched her head and asked, "It's already the third stage?" ”

Han Jing smiled and nodded: "Last week, we surrounded a large group of zombies, there were several hundred. ”

"So much?"

Su Hao paused in surprise and turned his gaze to Du Tianhao who was standing next to him: "What's going on?" ”

Since the outbreak of the virus, many things in the city have been fixed under the new order. For example, the range of movement of zombies, or the habits of other survivors. Zombies, for example, tend to wander around a neighborhood based on residual memories. Most of these areas are on the shady side, with little exposure to sunlight, and the ambient temperature is cooler than usual. Just like giant pandas only live in the mountains and forests where arrows and bamboos grow, zombies also have their own unique habits.

Zombies usually do not leave a fixed loitering area unless there are special circumstances.

With the strength of Han Jing and the others, it is certainly not a problem to deal with hundreds of zombies. As far as Su Hao knew, the number of corpses in the various areas that had been detected in the city exceeded thousands. It's hard to lure hundreds of zombies out of it. These decaying creatures have little intelligence, and their keen sense of smell and hearing makes them interested in the same target. There will be no humility, and there will be no retreat. Even experienced hunters in the future would have a hard time luring a single part of the corpse from the herd with bait.

"There are a lot of people who are still alive."

Du Tianhao spoke loudly, loud enough for everyone present to hear: "According to our observations, there are survivors moving in several neighborhoods. They may have gone into hiding some time ago because of fear, but whoever it is, they have to go out in search of food and water. This inevitably leads to contact with zombies. Those monsters are not as scary as they imagined, they are slow and their weaknesses are very obvious. As long as they weren't carelessly besieged, it would have been easy to take them out, and just like that, many survivors gathered together as a team like us. There are two in the southern block, about 30 people. There is also a larger one to the west, probably with hundreds of people. ”

Su Hao gradually understood the meaning of Du Tianhao's words: "You mean, those people led out the zombies?" ”

Du Tianhao nodded: "It was done by a small team in the southern block." The nearby supermarkets and shops have long since been emptied, and they have no way to get food nearby, so they have to look for food further afield. The guys were stupid and didn't cut off the siren when they started the car's engine, alarming the crowd of corpses near the gymnasium. It was a spectacular scene, with a crowd of at least four thousand, if not more. They drove around and carried the corpses across half the city. Of course, this kind of good opportunity to hunt cannot be missed, and we intercepted and killed some of the zombies that were left behind, and the results were brilliant. ”

As he spoke, he opened the drawer in the closet next to him, took out a small bulging leather bag and threw it over. Su Hao unzipped the seal and saw that it was full of putrid hormone hoses, as well as a bag full of cleaned silver bones, the quantity of which was at least a few hundred milligrams.

"The old rule ———— we eat half of it, and the rest half is yours."

Du Tianhao's voice was thick, and this sentence made everyone standing next to him laugh.

They are already hardeners, and they all understand the preciousness of silver bones. But in the eyes of everyone, these things should naturally have Su Hao's share.

If it weren't for him, he might have died.

Su Hao's heart also echoed with indescribable warmth———— he once suspected that it might be a mistake to return to this time and space?

After all, if it weren't for the lack of energy, if it weren't for the compulsion of the situation at the time, if it weren't for the constraints of various factors, he might have chosen a better time to land.

However, he now only feels more satisfied than ever. This kind of family affection and friendliness that cannot be described in words cannot be replaced by any interest relationship at all.

Of course, there may also be subtle changes caused by the prototype agent. Su Hao tends to ignore this relationship and only focus on friendship and affection.

Tao Yuan stood next to Du Tianhao, his gun on his shoulder. He looked very relaxed: "We heard from Lao Song that the construction of the field camp is very fast, and it is expected that the main project will be completed next month." It's safer there than here, and women and children can move there. ”

Su Hao nodded: "Our number of personnel has increased a lot, this is a very troublesome problem. ”

Li Xiaomei held the baby as usual, and her voice was weak: "Food should be enough." There is still a lot of stock in the warehouse, and if you go a little further, there should be many shops in other neighborhoods that you haven't patronized. ”

"It's not just the food. In fact, the problem of food is not difficult to solve. ”

Su Hao smiled and said, "We have harvested all the ripe wheat near the camp, and in a few months, the rice can also be harvested." The number of newly planted turnips and potatoes is so large that it will be enough to eat until next summer. What's more, food can be found in many parts of the city. Especially in the homes of residents, they can find something to eat more or less. Together, these foods should be in very substantial quantities. However, these things are scattered, and it takes a lot of time to search from house to house. The issue that we must urgently address now is fuel. ”

He is not exaggerating.

In fact, fuel has become one of the most important supplies for the entire team, in addition to food. Diesel is required for all kinds of machinery, heavy trucks to operate, and gasoline is also required for regular vehicles to be driven. Once the oil supply is interrupted, it will be very difficult to communicate between the city and the field camp, and the supplies and food will not be able to complement each other.

Su Hao walked to the table, took out the map of the city from the closet next to him, spread it out, pointed to the location of the small building on the map, and said to the people standing around: "We are here, and the streets around here are the areas we actually control." The nearest gas station is on the side street more than 300 meters away. The fuel there has been supplying all of our consumption since May. As we all know, traffic control prohibits large-tonnage trucks from entering urban areas. Therefore, the gas stations set up in urban areas have common characteristics———— diesel depot capacity is small, while gasoline depot capacity is large. Now, the station is running out of diesel and we have to find a new source of fuel. ”

Liao Qiupestle held an automatic rifle, stared at the signs on the map that represented gas stations, and said thoughtfully: "You mean, we want to control more gas stations?" ”

"We need oil ————"

Su Hao said calmly: "Of course, there is another way———— the abandoned vehicles scattered outside all carry a part of the stored oil. They can be pulled out with a leather tube and stored in pieces. However, this method is slow and takes a lot of time. There are only more than 300 of us, and we have to build camps, farm, hunt zombies, and find resources, and I am afraid that we will not have too many people to do this kind of thing. Therefore, the most convenient and direct way is to control other gas stations. ”

Du Tianhao clasped his hands in front of his chest, frowned, and tried to think: "What should I do?" Load all the oil stored at other gas stations and transport it away? I know there is a parking lot on the outskirts of Lung Road where there are several large tanker trucks that can be put to good use. ”

"Even a heavy tanker truck with a capacity of 30 tons cannot transport all the oil stockpiled."

Su Hao shook his head again and again: "We can transport some of the fuel to the field camp for storage, and we must also make the most of these abandoned gas stations." I calculated that there are more than 230 gas stations in the city. Although the location is scattered and some of the petrol stations are far away from us, it doesn't take much time to make a round trip. According to the coordinates of the gas station, we can clear out several commonly used traffic arteries. It's not difficult to do this, just drag the car blocking the road to the side. ”

"More than 230 gas stations"

Tao Yuan interjected with great interest and asked, "So what is the capacity of each gas station?" How much oil can you store? ”

"Not necessarily!"

Cao Rui, who was standing next to her, seemed to be familiar with this aspect. She cleared her throat and said lightly: "The capacity of the gas station depends on the traffic flow in the area. In general, the volume is usually thirty to one hundred tons. As for the period before the outbreak of the stock zombie chaos, there was no news about the shortage of fuel in the city, and the price of oil was also stable at that time. You can make a discount of 50 percent. This is just my personal guess, though, and the actual number could be much more than that. ”

You can clearly hear the "hiss" sound of gasping from the mouths of many people.

"That's a big number, very impressive. This fuel is enough to keep existing machinery and vehicles running for a long time. ”

Su Hao looked up and looked around, his eyes were full of determination and strength: "We need them————"

The next day.

On the road outside the small bank building, a Buick SUV was parked just a few minutes ago from the underground garage. This car has very good performance and strong horsepower, and as one of the most frequently used vehicles in normal times, the survivors have fully protected and strengthened it.

A layer of steel was welded around the perimeter of the body, and the surrounding and front windshields were covered with fine and strong steel wire mesh. The roof sunroof has been changed to a movable cover, and in case of an emergency, a 12 can be dragged out of the rear compartment. A 7-mm heavy machine gun mount was mounted on the roof of the car. Next to the long elastic chain, there are two chainsaws filled with oil, as well as a complete set of snow chains specially adapted to complex road conditions.

Su Hao chewed on a steamed bun with fermented bean curd, pulled the car door, and bent down into the co-pilot's seat. The cheeks on both sides of him bulged into two large balls like bubbles, which looked a little funny, and Xinyan, who was holding the steering wheel, couldn't help but laugh out loud. This atmosphere quickly infected Yang Lulu, who was staying in the back seat, and the two women, one big and one small, suddenly leaned forward and leaned back with laughter.

Su Hao swallowed the food in his mouth hard, took a breath, looked at them quite angrily, pulled off the visor again, looked at the mirror for a few seconds, and said unhappily, "What's so funny?" Don't you think this is a man's right to behave? Being able to eat means healthy ————"

"You're right!"

Yang Lulu shook her rosy face with baby fat, looked at Su Hao with eyes that were obviously not in line with her age, turned her head to look at Xinyan, and said with a smile: "Health means strength, so that when you sleep in the middle of the night, you will not be kicked out of bed by a dissatisfied woman for physical reasons." ”

This sentence sounds scary.

Su Hao and Xinyan stared at Yang Lulu with cold eyes at the same time. The latter awkwardly put on his sunglasses, coughed lightly, and then stepped on the clutch and pushed into the forward gear. The former widened his mouth in shock, widened his eyes and asked, "Where did you hear all this nonsense?" Who told you that? ”

The nine-year-old girl didn't care about the threat in Su Hao's fierce gaze. She took a lollipop out of her pocket, tore off the wrapper, stuffed it in her mouth, and said very proudly and vaguely, "I'm smarter than you think, aren't I?" ”

The buggy traversed most of the city, through the bustling area adjacent to the south, and came to a slow stop in front of a gas station with a red and white sign.

The building across from the bank building has been cleared, and together with the survivors who rotate every two weeks, there are more than 120 team members moving in. In addition to more than a dozen people, including Li Xiaomei, who were responsible for vigilance and daily logistics, Su Hao divided the rest of the team members into groups of five. According to the plan agreed yesterday, these search teams were divided into two parts———— Tao Yuan led half of the people to search the surrounding area with the bank building as the core. Their mission is to hunt zombies and collect supplies. Su Hao and Du Tianhao led the other half of the people to occupy and control all the gas stations in the adjacent area.

In the green belt on the side of the road, there is a van light truck that has overturned on its side. On both sides of the body there are eye-catching ant motifs and the words "Ant Move". Its right front wheel was deflated, possibly because it had run over some kind of sharp object, causing a puncture. A large pile of disorganized furniture scattered from the open rear door, crushing the bushes in the green belt. Underneath the mountain of debris, half of the gnawed human remains were revealed.

Su Hao jumped out of the car and carefully observed the surrounding movements.

There were four zombies roaming the corridors of the gas station———— one lying under the sunless eaves in a daze, the other two standing next to the corner of the wall and slowly shaking, and the last one lying on the ground, studying a few ants like the most professional entomologist. Curious, it sticks out its dry tongue and wants to lick and eat these seemingly delicious little creatures.

Although, there is not much meat.

The movement brought by the off-road vehicle is very loud, whether it is the roar of the engine or the sound of the brakes, it is enough to attract the attention of zombies. As if they had been given a booster, they immediately woke up from their lazy stupor. Slowly, he pounced with teeth and claws.

Su Hao picked up the fire axe and cut off the leg of the zombie leader, and Yang Lulu, who was following behind, immediately covered its head with a fork pole. The incapacitated zombie was stuck in the back of the neck, lying on the ground and howling, but unable to break free with his hands. Su Hao and Xinyan took the opportunity to deal with the other zombies separately, extracting the rotting bacteria hormone as quickly as possible, and then turned back to deal with the legless zombie who was held down by Yang Lulu. The little girl with her free hand was not idle, she picked up the axe that Su Hao threw next to her and slashed the zombie's buttocks.

Although he is only nine years old, his body that has been modified by silver bones is stronger than that of an adult. Even if there is a height limit, Yang Lulu can completely deal with lone zombies alone.

Of course, her hunting process is a bit more troublesome than that of adults———— in hand-to-hand combat situations, you must first cut off the zombie's leg before attacking the zombie's head.

The team members loved the nine-year-old girl and didn't give up on training her for martial arts because of her age. Like everyone else, Yang Lulu also has to learn how to hunt zombies in the trap yard, receive shooting training in the suburbs, and learn how to use firearms.

Spartan education was cruel, but it could produce a large number of excellent warriors who fought to the death from an early age.

Su Hao just advanced Yang Lulu's growth time a little.

In fact, the wild outcasts in the future world are more precocious than her. Those seven or eight-year-old children are very familiar with the human body, monsters, and body structure. They know how to exploit each other's weaknesses to attack, and they are never picky when it comes to food.
