Chapter 58: Faith
Wang Yao stood in front of the security door on the first floor with his back hand, looking at the neat twenty people in front of him with a serious face, everyone looked straight ahead without squinting, and listened carefully to every word that came out of the mouth of the person standing in front.
There are men, women, and even a few uncles who are almost fifty years old and children who are just eighteen or nineteen years old, but no matter what their identities were in the past, what occupations, and what kind of places they have in this society, they all stand at the same starting point today.
Everyone standing here is about to fight for their place in this new order, to grab, to fight, to smash the head of every enemy who stands in their way with their own weapons. Whether they were man-eating zombies or something else didn't matter anymore at this moment.
Everyone knows very well in their hearts that the behemoths that once pressed on everyone's heads may now be gone, they no longer have the ability to protect their own people, and the old order no longer exists.
"From today onwards, all the people who participated in the training will take turns outside the building in groups of twenty to hunt zombies." When Wang Yao said this sentence in a flat tone, it was as if everyone would form a team to go out for an outing in the future.
But for the trainers below who stood in two rows with their heads held high, even if they were prepared, they still caused a small commotion in the crowd. But after a few moments, calm was restored again, but everyone's faces began to look nervous, and some of the muscles began to tremble.
That's a cannibal! If you are really bitten accidentally, I am afraid that you will have to go to the underworld to see your family.
Seeing that the people below were generally calm, Wang Yao was a little satisfied, nearly a month of physical fitness and discipline training was still quite effective, and what they needed to do now was to let them hone their real courage in practice.
"Boom" and "Clank"!
The six people who had followed Lin Zifeng Wang Yao to clean the basement were panting and threw ten riot shields and ten fire axes on the floor in front of the crowd, making a clear sound of metal colliding.
These shields and weapons were all found from the corners of the arsenal below, and Wang Yao was also a little surprised when he saw these things. He thought there were only those guns and ammunition here, but he didn't expect that there were a lot of other things piled up in the innermost.
The shields were stacked like mille-feuille in the corner behind a wooden box, and there were about fifty of them, and not far from them there were about a hundred dusty axes. Looks like I've been here for a long time.
"In groups of two, ten with shields and ten with axes, you have thought of it yourself and watched the distribution. Five minutes later, assemble again! ”
As soon as Wang Yao gave the order, the crowd quickly began to make noise, and a few quarrels could be faintly heard, but they quickly subsided. When they had all gathered their equipment again, the crowd of onlookers noticed that the shields were usually men who looked strong.
And most of the people with axes in the back look relatively thin and flexible. Lin Zifeng, who was standing at the stairs and secretly observing, secretly sighed, it seems that these days they have not only filled their stomachs, but also recovered not only their physical strength, but also the morality that had obviously begun to disappear before.
Wang Yao was also very satisfied with the formation they had assigned, if a team wanted to exert greater strength, learning to take care of the relatively weak people in the team was the first thing to do, and now it was obvious that these people had realized this.
The most important trust between teammates is built on this. It seems that their performance in the future may be much better than they thought.
"Ready, open the door!" Seeing Wang Yao turn his head to look at him, the person who was specially responsible for guarding the gate hurriedly stuck the door on the sensor, and the security door that was stained with blood and slime on the zombie's body slowly opened.
The ten men in front of them with shields rushed out of the door with nervous expressions, and soon lined up directly above the steps. And the dozen or so zombies that ate the two of them alive last month happened to be wandering in the middle of the steps more than twenty meters long at this time.
Even if someone was holding a shield more than half a person high in front of him, the ten people carrying the axe behind him still felt a little trembling, subconsciously holding the weapon in his hand tightly, gritting his teeth and secretly cheering himself up.
The weather was a little gloomy, and the smell of the living quickly attracted the attention of the zombies below with a slight breeze, and they turned their heads to sniff the source of the smell, and began to move slowly towards the top of the steps.
Looking at the zombies getting closer and closer, the one with the shield in front suddenly wavered, looking at the zombies who were obviously moving faster and faster, the sweat on his forehead dripped on his feet like money, and his vision began to blur a little.
I'll be eaten by them, what if this shield can't stop them? He kept struggling in his heart, but as soon as he glanced back, he saw that Wang Yao seemed to be staring at him.
The always cold Chief Wang seemed to see his thoughts, and his hand was moving! What is he looking for? Pistols, it's pistols! I saw him open the insurance! He quickly turned back and remembered what he had heard others talk about.
When I went down to the underground warehouse, there were obviously seven people, and the one who was less was said to have been killed by Chief Wang because he saw the zombies and wanted to retreat! He's going to kill himself, he's going to kill himself!
I can't run, I can't run, I'll die if I run! He kept repeating these words in his mouth, and the figure of the zombie in his pupils became larger and larger, so he subconsciously took half a step forward and bowed forward.
"Bang bang bang!" "Bang bang bang!"
He felt that the shield in front of him sank, as if something had hit him, and he saw several arms that looked like air-dried sausages sticking in through the gaps in the shield. At that moment, an axe suddenly slashed from behind, and a severed arm fell to the ground.
A woman with a panicked look on her face and a slight gruff in her mouth looked at him when she looked back. Then, he swung the axe in his hand again and smashed it into the head of the zombie who tried to get through the crack.
The width of the steps in front of the building was about twenty meters, and the wall of ten people with shields could only block the middle of the steps, and soon the formation was forced to disperse because the zombies began to spread out on both sides.
After seeing the living people, the zombies began to go crazy and hit the shield in front of them, and the skin and flesh on their bodies rubbed wildly against the smooth shield, but they could not cause any damage. Occasionally, a few zombies would reach through the gap and claw, but before they could move, they were cut off by the people who followed closely behind with an axe.
Gradually, everyone found that their previous worries were a little redundant, the shield and axe in their hands were the best equipment to deal with zombies, and the tense heart began to be soothed, and some people could even take the time to talk to the people on the side when they were under the impact of zombies.
The survivors who used to smell the zombies turned colored, finally began to burn a small flame in their hearts, and it will grow bigger and bigger as time passes.
