Huang Yinfeng touched the scar on his face: "Do you know why I am hiding in this courtyard?" Is it really because of the injury on his face that he can't see people? Hmph, I, Huang Yinfeng, am not so naïve. I just suddenly felt disheartened, everything we did didn't make any sense, whether it was the hardliners represented by Xu Jie or the Huairou faction who heard the old man, they were actually doing their jobs. Even the humans of the fortress are doing their work. Summer insects are indescribable, everything we have has has no meaning in front of biochemical viruses! Any sense! ”

"I just want to live here quietly."

"Play as much as you like. The old lady is no longer with me. ”

Huang Yinfeng turned his head to look at the layout in the room: "Do you know? When I was a child, I also lived in such a courtyard, but at that time the conditions were much more difficult, our family of three had to squeeze into a side room with my grandparents, and there was no place to cook, my father pulled a cart of bricks from the construction site, and built a small kitchen behind the wall, and people couldn't turn around to cook in it. Every morning, when the bell rings, I have to carry the toilet to empty the toilet, because I am short and can't reach the body, and the neighbor next to me is kind enough to help me pour it, but the feces and urine often spill out, splash on my body and even my face. That's why I hate the courtyard, and I hate it from the bottom of my heart. But now I think it's nice to live here, and when the door closes, it's a day of its own. That's good. ”

Wang Lu nodded: "I know, I will tell Xu Jie that you don't want to see anyone because of the injury on your face, so you won't participate in this operation." ”

Huang Yinfeng said gratefully: "Thank you." ”

Wang Lu moved to the edge of the pit and was about to go to the ground, when he suddenly turned around and asked, "How strong are my brain waves now?" ”

Before Huang Yinfeng could answer, Wang Lu said quickly: "If I order you to take off your clothes now, will you do it?" ”

Huang Yinfeng just shouted: "You dare to ...... surnamed Wang"

Wang Lu was already laughing and walked out of the room.

Mu Yuan waited outside the door: "This is leaving?" Would you like to take a bite? If you don't like pancakes, I'll give you the following. ”

Wang Lu glared at him: "You kid is moisturized, stay by Huang Yinfeng's side, I don't know how many of your smart corpses are hungry in this capital, don't run around." Otherwise, Lao Tzu won't be able to eat under you, and it will be cheaper, and people will eat you. Damn, Lao Tzu took you to the capital, thinking of adding disgust to that mud seed king road, this is not Taobao Express, free shipping to let people dip soy sauce to eat. Wang Lu said before he spoke, and after pondering it, he felt that it was not right, what is "eat you underneath". , You just ate Lao Tzu below, well, no. It's quite perverted to let Mu Yuan eat himself underneath......

Wang Lu waved his hand, turned around and was about to go out, here, chased out a sentence from the side room: "Be careful." ”

Wang Lu paused: "Thank you." ”

He turned around and walked out of the door, and as soon as Mu Yuan closed the door, Wang Lu roared from outside the door: "Huang Yinfeng, take off all your clothes without pulling them all!" ”

A scream came from the side room, and Huang Yinfeng scolded like a shrew: "Wang Lu, you bastard turtle grandson, you have no asshole when you give birth to a son!" ”

Wang Lu quickly got into a section of sewer pipe. Even before Huang Yinfeng's disfigurement, her appearance was only mediocre, but her figure was good, she belonged to the type of "wanting to commit a crime after seeing it later", hehe, I don't know what it will be after she takes off her clothes...... Of course. It's just a joke. From the bottom of her heart, Wang Lu is still very grateful to Huang Yinfeng, the two have not known each other for a long time, but it is rare for Huang Yinfeng to be able to talk about this.

Wang Lu understood what Huang Yinfeng's last sentence "beware" meant.

Watch your back.

For the sake of their further evolution, the envoys of the capital did not hesitate to use a number of voters as cannon fodder, so there must be some among them who regard Wang Lu as a thorn in their side. A thorn in one's flesh.

No one likes to be a slave, and the higher the IQ, the more self-esteem a person has.

Wang Lu's continuous evolution has even appeared in Huang Yinfeng, not to mention others, and when Wang Lu's evolution is difficult to contain, it may be a more prudent plan to kill him first.

Wang Lu never offered to participate in the operation against the fortress. But Xu Jie and others have been "enthusiastically" pulling him to participate, and the water in this is really not shallow.

When facing the charge of the fortress cluster, there will definitely be heavy casualties, in such a chaotic scene, it is normal for Wang Lu to have an accident.

So, watch out.

Wang Lu shook his head, he had actually been very skeptical of the so-called theory that the conditions of low-level intelligent corpses were subordinate to those of high-level intelligent corpses.

That's right, the obedience of the bereaved to the intelligent corpse is indeed a condition, but the intelligent corpse with a high degree of IQ awakening to the point of self-consciousness is actually not conditionally obedient to the high-level intelligent corpse. Wang Lu's brain waves are indeed powerful, and he also believes that when he left the courtyard, his cold voice could really make Huang Yinfeng get tricked and want to come to the room with a piece of spring.

However, the effect is limited to that.

It's like a person who is suddenly frightened on the street, and the people next to him will definitely be frightened, but if this person orders people to hand over all the money, everyone will think that he is a psychopath, and no one will listen.

Wang Lu privately felt that the power of brain waves was like a person who looked powerful and powerful, and had a natural sense of oppression for ordinary people. That's all.

If you are blackmailed behind by other messengers because of this, it is really wronged.

It's just that Wang Lu knows that he can't back down, let alone make excuses not to participate in this operation, which will only make Xu Jie and others feel that they are timid. Thinking about it, Xu Jie and the others were also a bit of a rat bogeyman, and they didn't know how powerful Wang Lu's brain wave dying blow would be, so they didn't tear their faces in public without gongs and drums.

If you show absolute strength when attacking the fortress, maybe you will let some guys with evil intentions stop.

Day after tomorrow.

The capital, underground, inside the subway tracks.

The zombies that can't be seen at a glance are surging, and every time they pass through a new station, there will be a new group of zombies coming in, and the leaders of them are naturally intelligent corpses with different degrees of awakening.

Among the zombie groups, the largest number are ordinary zombies, with rotting limbs, broken arms and legs, and slow movements. These are typical cannon fodder, and their only function is to consume the medicine of the fortress.

There are also some armed zombies. It seems that Xu Jie and the others have also made full preparations, the armed zombies are wearing customized heavy armor, especially the fully enclosed helmet on their heads, which is extremely heavy, if a normal person wears such a helmet, it is estimated that the heavy pressure on his neck will make him breathless. There are also several protruding rods on the helmet, but it is unknown what they are used for.

However, what surprised Wang Lu the most was that. He saw people.

That's right, it's people, living people.

They were dressed in neat military uniforms, armor, tactical vests, and armed with guns. Surround the corpses.

This is -- what? Why are these armed living people here?!

"Wang Lu, are you here?" A greeting rang from behind him.

Wang Lu turned his head and saw that it was Xu Jie, and next to him, there were also several armed people - living people.

"Who are they?" Wang Lu couldn't help but be curious, and pointed to a living gunner.

Xu Jie said: "Ah, they, they are our latest guards. ”

"Guards?" Wang Lu looked at the living people in disbelief.

Xu Jie shrugged his shoulders: "There's nothing strange about this, it's your Mu Yuan who gave us Qi." Let us realize that under certain conditions, living people can also be used by us. He reached out and patted one of the living gunmen in the face: "These are the people we have carefully selected, some of them are wives and children under our control, and some of them are promised better living conditions, such as sleeping with beautiful women on a regular basis." Delicious food, even reducing the amount of blood they draw and so on. You know, anybody can sell at a price, the difference is just the price, as long as we give them enough temptation, they are willing to fight for us. Of course, we don't sacrifice them casually, they are all used as personal bodyguards. Don't say it, it's much easier to use than a dumb zombie. ”

Xu Jie said to a live gunner: "2 meters to the right, top light, shoot." ”

Without saying a word, the live gunman picked up his gun and aimed at the overhead light. Three dull gunshots rolled through the tunnel, and broken glass from the overhead lights fell one after another.

Xu Jie said to Wang Lu: "How is it?" Zombie gunners can't shoot with such precision. ”

Wang Lu suddenly said, "What if I order him to shoot at the messenger?" ”

Xu Jie was stunned: "What did you say?" ”

Wang Lu scratched his head: "You know, out of the absolute obedience of the elect to the messenger. A messenger is the one who commands one elect to harm another. But these living gunners are not the same, you say, if one messenger threatens them with their lives to shoot at another messenger, will they do it? ”

Xu Jie looked at the living gunman, then at Wang Lu, and suddenly smiled: "How is it possible?" Wang Lu thinks too much, if these living gunmen dare to attack the messenger, then they themselves must die, no one will be so stupid. ”

Wang Lu smiled: "Yes, I do think too much, no one would be so stupid." ”

Xu Jie beckoned and summoned a few living gunners: "Then, this is the bodyguard I arranged for you, during the war, they will accept your orders." ”

Wang Lu nodded: "Thank you for your kindness." ”

Xu Jie said: "Come with me, we still have a lot of ways to go." ”

In the dark underground, the growing tide of zombies surged forward under the leadership of the smart corpses, and finally, the subway exit arrived.

This exit is located under a section of viaduct, and after Wang Lu followed Xu Jie out of the half-collapsed subway exit, he heard the rumbling sound of cannons.

Fortress, under attack.

Attack hordes of zombies that crawl across the streets and through the alleys.

Flowers of metal and air waves bloomed in the zombie horde, and stumps and flesh flew in the air, but as long as they were not hit in the brain, even if half of their bodies were torn apart, the zombies were still moving forward.

A cannon exploded a hundred meters away from Wang Lu, Wang Lu subconsciously squatted down, and Xu Jie helped him beside him: "It's okay, the fortress is just shooting blindly, there are too many voters, and they can't find the messenger in charge of commanding at all." ”

Wang Lu said: "What about the fortress? Why didn't I see it? ”

Xu Jie said: "There is still a section of road, the underground pipeline cannot go directly to the fortress, there used to be some pipelines, but now all of them have been blown up by the fortress." Follow me. ”

Xu Jie took Wang Lu, under the cover of zombies and buildings, and rushed eastward, Wang Lu appeared, and the smart corpses consciously drove the zombies to the middle of the street to attract the firepower of the fortress to the maximum. It's a simple trick, but it also works. The further east, the denser the artillery fire became, and even a military novice like Wang Lu could hear that the fortress had dispatched a variety of artillery, and the howling and explosion of the cannon in the air varied in size.

Xu Jie, who led the way in front, obviously became cautious, most of the time he walked through the building and the underground passage, and he really had to cross the open area, and he must send a large number of zombies to explore the road first. After making sure it is safe, rush over.

Wang Lu followed Xu Jie closely, and peeked at the group of living gunmen and bodyguards around him, they were protecting themselves tightly, yes. is to protect themselves, whenever there is an explosion near the left, they will subconsciously use their bodies to cover Wang Lu, and even once, when a high-rise building on the street fell a few wall tiles and broken glass because of shelling, a living gunman directly pressed Wang Lu under him, and half of the fallen brick smashed directly on his helmet, when he helped Wang Lu up from the ground, Wang Lu clearly saw a stream of blood slowly oozing out from under his helmet.

Sure enough, he is a faithful protector of the Lord.

The closer you get to the fortress. The surrounding buildings became more and more dilapidated, and finally, Xu Jie took Wang Lu to stop in front of a building with multiple artillery holes on the outer wall, and he opened the map in his hand to confirm: "That's right, this is the stronghold where you and I are attacking." ”

The two of them came to the top floor with armed zombies and living gunmen, and Xu Jie pushed open a door marked "President's Office": "The scenery is good." ”

Scenery. It's really good.

Without the pollution of human industry, the sky of the capital would have been blue, flocks of pigeons with whistles, flying between the buildings, and white clouds casting huge shadows on the ground, floating in an imperceptible but certain degree.

Wang Lu stood in a daze, looking at a wall a kilometer away.

Very high, very high, long, long wall.

The walls don't go straight up and down. Rather, it's a little convex arc.

The wall stretched out on both sides until it disappeared from Wang Lu's field of vision.

In front of the wall, as far as the eye can see, all the buildings have been reduced to rubble, and there are huge pits all over the place. scorched marks, and dusty puddles of rain.

This is the land of death, not even a tree, not a single grass in sight.

What you can see are stumps and broken bones scattered on the rubble.

Wang Lu moved his throat, he knew that those stumps and broken bones were the corpses of the zombies left behind by the envoys of the capital after attacking the fortress before.

The corpses of the zombies do not decay for a long time, so they have been preserved until now.

How many zombies died?

I don't know.

Lakh? Several hundred thousand? That's just a statistic.

Xu Jie looked at it: "It's quite clean." ”

Wang Lu was stunned: "What did you say?" ”

Xu Jie pointed to the root of the wall in the distance: "After every war, the fortress will clean up the corpses on the periphery, of course, they don't dare to go too far, for fear of being ambushed by us." ”

Only then did Wang Lu notice that sure enough, there were relatively few corpses on the ruins on the other side of the wall.

Wang Lu was a little puzzled and said: "With so many corpses, it's not too troublesome to bury them in the fortress." ”

Xu Jie said casually: "The fortress needs to clear the shooting boundary, besides, it's still useful for them to take these corpses." ”

Wang Lu felt that if he wasn't a smart corpse, he would definitely jump three feet high when he heard Xu Jie's last words: "Useful?" The people of the fortress take the zombies - oh, what is the use of the corpses of the elect? No, wait, you're not going to tell me they're going to eat it, are you? ”

Xu Jie shrugged: "Where do you think of going, the group of people in the fortress are damned, but they are not perverts." They don't eat corpses--" he paused, "and they use corpses as fertilizer." ”

"They used the corpses as fertilizer." Wang Lu unconsciously repeated Xu Jie's words, "The chemical fertilizer you are talking about is not the chemical fertilizer used for farming in the countryside?" ”

Xu Jie opened a large box carried by an armed zombie without raising his head and said, "It's this fertilizer, otherwise, what do you think?" ”

Wang Lu was stunned for a long time, and wanted to ask something again, but suddenly shook his head, he was really drilled into the horns, dust to dust, the corpse of a zombie, its essence is also a substance, and it is normal to return to the cycle of nature, but when mortals think of corpses, they are disgusting and terrifying, in fact, they are really talking, it is just a bunch of proteins that are being eroded by various microorganisms. In the past, people always said that where there was a war, the land was particularly fertile, and that was the return of human corpses to nature. It is not inferior to other creatures, nor is it nobler than other species. The corpse is used as fertilizer, just back to the birth of the thumb and the applause?

It's just that Wang Lu scratched his head: "Isn't it difficult for zombie corpses to decay and decompose?" How did the people of the fortress turn them into fertilizer? ”

Xu Jie shrugged: "I don't know about this, we just intercepted a train fleet they used to transport fertilizer, and now there is a document in it, which mentions that because it is difficult to collect enough zombie corpses recently, the production of fertilizer has decreased, and I hope that all localities must save on it." ”

"Alright." Xu Jie said suddenly, he stood up from the front of the box and handed Wang Lu something: "Here you go." ”

Wang Lu took a look, it was a thing like an old-fashioned TV antenna, a circular circle can be stuck on the head, there are two retractable antennas on it, and a circuit board is welded on the circle, which looks very rough in workmanship, and the solder joints on it are clearly visible.

"What is this?" Wang Lu asked.

!
