Chapter 153: Tide of War Corpses
Lu Cheng was also stunned when he heard Xu Jingqiu's self-introduction, but he didn't expect Xu Jingqiu to regard himself as his left and right deputy now.
Shouldn't he be the leader of a well-known survivor stronghold?
Xu Jingqiu had just finished speaking, and Li Xiaoya also politely stretched out her hand and shook what Xu Jingqiu said.
"My name is Li Xiaoya, I believe Lu Cheng has already mentioned me to you, right?"
After Li Xiaoya finished speaking, she stuck out her tongue at Lu Cheng.
Li Xiaoya is actually not so enthusiastic and outgoing to others, but when she is by Lu Cheng's side, she can't help but be happy, just like when they met for the first time.
I don't know why, as long as she is close to Lu Cheng's side, Li Xiaoya can smell a very sweet and delicious smell.
It's like Lu Cheng is some kind of delicious food, not like human flesh and blood.
attracted Li Xiaoya to take a bite, but it was like a dessert, making me want to go up and lick it, suck it.
"Okay, don't be so polite, Miss Xiaoya, you can tell us about what you see in the video."
Although Lu Cheng also arranged rangers, he was outside to check the situation as scouts.
But after all, it is still easy to spot humans in the corpses.
The smell of flesh and blood alone was already able to attract ordinary zombies.
Those rangers simply couldn't get even half a step closer to the corpse tide.
But Li Xiaoya is different, Li Xiaoya is an alienated zombie.
Her scent does not attract the attention of other ordinary zombies.
Even if she has a weakened aura on her body, it won't matter much.
And during this time, Li Xiaoya would approach the corpse tide from time to time to observe the situation inside.
At this time, he naturally nodded and began to talk to Lu Cheng.
And when Li Xiaoya finished speaking, Lu Cheng knew that the situation might be much more serious than he imagined.
The special zombies in City A are not only ordinary zombies, but also many elite-level zombies.
Listening to Li Xiaoya's description, in the corpse tide, there are many alienated zombies with obviously abnormal body shape and weight.
There are also some creatures similar to tyrants, but Lu Cheng knows that they are not tyrants created by the federal corporation.
Rather, it is a form that zombies will manifest after reaching the level of baron.
Lu Cheng didn't expect that in this corpse tide, there were even baron-level zombies.
That special zombie in City A can't be a count-level zombie, right?
Lu Cheng thought like this, and felt that it was not impossible.
As for the number of elite-level zombies, Li Xiaoya can't be sure.
But the number she saw was no less than twenty or thirty elite-level zombies.
As for the baron-level zombies, there may be a little less, but there can be two or three.
After Lu Cheng heard the news, he was excited on the one hand.
Excited, naturally more high-grade alienated crystal nuclei were sent to the door.
On the other hand, I was a little worried.
There are only 500 guns on his side, and the defense of the walls is not as good as the Light Shelter.
Whether this wave of corpses can be repelled is a big question mark.
Lu Chengguang thought about it, and knew that it must be a bloody battle, and I am afraid that the possibility of being uninjured is not very high as before.
And Xu Jingqiu is the same, Xu Jingqiu at this time has turned pale when he listens.
On weekdays, an elite-level zombie needs more than a dozen people to be able to deal with it.
And now among the twenty or thirty thousand corpses, there are nearly a hundred elite-level zombies.
There may also be higher-level baron-level zombies, and the 500 of them are a bit choking just to deal with those special level zombies.
Not to mention dealing with a corpse tide composed of twenty or thirty thousand ordinary zombies.
At this time, Lu Cheng wanted to post a hero post on the Internet and ask all the survivors in the central city to come over and help.
But Lu Cheng also knew that there was no such condition, and even if he made a post, there would definitely be very few people who would come over.
The main thing is that he will expose his weak side to other survivors in the city.
It's hard to guarantee that they won't sneak up on them from behind, but they can't leave this possibility in the hands of other survivors.
Now even in the face of the corpse tide in front of you, with only a 55-odd chance of winning, you have to pretend to win.
Otherwise, if the odds of winning this 55 are caught by other survivors, it is likely to cause unavoidable and predictable results.
And after Lu Cheng figured this out, he decided to wait until this crisis was over and solve the special zombies in the south of City A.
Be sure to unite the central city and unite all the survivors and other bases, and let those you trust rule over those survivors.
As for the other survivor bases that can't be trusted, they will all be wiped out for him.
Lu Cheng finally made up his mind.
The main thing is to make the survivors listen to themselves.
You can't leave such troubles and put them by your side because you are afraid of trouble.
Such a situation may still arise in the future, if it is not guaranteed, those survivors will be called in at any time and place as their own backup force.
What are you keeping them for?
Did he raise the enemy and then kill himself?
Thinking like this, Lu Cheng also made up his mind.
However, this matter naturally will not be said to Xu Jingqiu, after listening to Li Xiaoya's narration, they feel that the defenses prepared in front of them are a little too simple.
But time did not allow them to continue to strengthen their defenses, and called all the people outside back behind the barricades, using the barricades and traps outside, ready to make the first wave of resistance.
It was getting late, and when it was dusk, the army of corpses coming from City A was already close in sight.
First, there was the sound of a low roar in the distance, and the rumbling and noisy sound of walking.
Then Lu Cheng was on the horizon and saw the terrifying zombie army coming from the side of the road.
Lu Chengcheng had guided the corpse tide before, the corpse tide of tens of thousands of people, what kind of strength he had, he knew very well.
There are so many people in the Skull Gang, all of whom are vulnerable to the impact of the corpse tide.
There was almost no resistance, and they were destroyed in the waves of corpses.
I didn't expect that so soon, Lu Chengcheng had to face it himself, a tide of corpses of twenty or thirty thousand people.
It was two or three times larger than the nearly 10,000-person corpse tide he attracted back then.
The most important thing is that in this group of corpses, there are also those elite-level or baron-level special zombies that are not attacked by ordinary zombies.
And this time, the survival pressure faced by Lu Cheng really came to Lu Cheng's side.
Lu Cheng could just turn around and give up everything, those corpses and zombies would definitely not be able to catch up with Lu Cheng.
But if he really gave up all this, Lu Cheng felt unwilling.
You must know those scientific researchers, but the bargaining chips for Lu Cheng's rapid upgrade in the future.
Only by better understanding the alienated virus and what is happening in this world can we ensure that we are invincible in the future.
Imagine, a potion, can create a viscount-level zombie, and then absorb its alienated crystal nucleus, where to find such an upgrade speed?
If Lu Cheng had to fight every alienated crystal nucleus by himself, it was estimated that he would have to travel all over the world in order to raise his level.
In that case, it would be too much trouble, and if you have the time to raise your level like this, others may already surpass your own level.
When the time comes, the small fish will eat the dried shrimp, and everyone else will already become a big fish and come to eat their own small fish.
This is also the reason why Lu Cheng must insist on defense.
And the most important thing is that in addition to hoping to research powerful potions and quickly obtain alien crystal nuclei.
There is also the fact that he also has a lot of worries now, such as Xu Jingqiu.
Xu Jingqiu, a beautiful girl, has been helping herself for free, and Lu Cheng also hopes that she can live a better life.
So standing up this time is also to help Xu Jingqiu.
And Xu Jingqiu also knew this, looking at Lu Cheng's eyes, they were even gentler than before.
As if she was about to knead out the water, Xu Jingqiu naturally knew that Lu Cheng could leave directly, regardless of the survivor stronghold on her side.
And Xu Jingqiu also knew that under Lu Cheng's hands, there were actually not many survivors at all.
But at this time, he was willing to exert his influence and gather other survivors to come over to help, and even Lu Cheng himself came over to face this threat.
Isn't it Lu Cheng's selfless help?
But no matter how many words of thanks you have, you have to put them aside for the time being.
Let's get through the huge crisis in front of me first, and those corpse tides did not directly attack the survivors on Lu Cheng's side as Lu Cheng thought.
Instead, he guided the corpse tide to start a circle around the barricades, and did not enter the trap that Xu Jingqiu and they had set up in advance.
This is obviously trying to find out if there are any flaws that can be bypassed.
However, Xu Jingqiu's trap is still very ingenious, and it is unrealistic for them to completely bypass it.
And after understanding this, the few elite-level zombies who guided ordinary zombies gave up looking for loopholes.
began to prepare for a strong attack, first of all, ordinary zombies were on the wooden walls one by one, and began to use brute force to knock down the wooden walls.
The simple wooden wall was only used to delay their time, and the main function was to pour gasoline on the wooden wall and light it.
The entire wooden wall burst into flames.
It's like the scene in the Song of Ice and Fire, when the final battle against the Night King is played.
However, the burning wooden wall can only stop those ordinary zombies for a short time.
Flames are very harmful to ordinary zombies, and most of those ordinary zombies have no IQ and thinking ability.
Seeing the raging flames and the voices of people in the base, their first reaction was to rush towards the survivor base.
Then everyone saw one by one zombies pounce into the flames, but then the problem arose.
The flames that burned out of the wooden walls were not particularly violent.
Even though they had deliberately widened the thickness of the wooden walls, ordinary zombies poured into the flames one after another.
No matter how thick the wall of fire is, it can't stop so many zombies from stepping on the corpses of other zombies to enter.
The zombies on fire soon came from the other side of the wall of fire.
And the flames burning on his body seem to be even more deterrent.
The survivors, who were heavily armed behind the wooden wall and were engrossed in preparing to shoot, couldn't help but tremble a few times in their hearts.
Gu Ming held his rifle and motioned to everyone not to shoot in advance, at such a distance, it would be a waste of bullets to shoot in advance.
And when all the zombies entered a range of nearly 100 meters, Gu Ming roared.
Lowering his arm, and when Gu Ming conveyed the signal to shoot, he lined up several lines outside the wall, using cover to shoot at the survivors of the corpse tide in front of him.
Whether it was a pistol or a rifle in his hand, he was frantically pushing the trigger at this time, and someone was holding a machine gun and shooting at the tide of corpses in front of him.
Although there are a lot of bullets in the machine gun, those zombies will continue to move forward even if they are not hit in the head, even if they are pierced through the body.
The role of the machine gun is significantly reduced.
However, if you hit their legs and limbs, you can also directly knock their limbs into the air and block their progress.
In an instant, the offensive momentum of those ordinary zombies who broke through the wall of fire was suppressed.
After all, the hot weapons of human beings are still far stronger than these walking dead.
And those elite-level special zombies, after seeing such fierce firepower, naturally it is impossible to sit back and watch, and ordinary zombies are consumed in vain.
They quickly roared, picked up one scrap truck rack after another, and smashed it towards the stronghold on the survivor's side.
When the frame of the car was lifted up by those tall elite-level zombies and smashed towards the stronghold on the survivors' side, the survivors who were shooting the zombies behind the obstacles were stupid.
They never imagined that they would be able to throw the scrap car over and throw it so far.
Most of these people have never seen the experience of fighting with zombies above the elite level.
So I don't have a special understanding of the abilities of these special zombies.
Even if someone has fought with elite-level zombies, they have relied on the suppression of firepower.
Dozens of people fought together before defeating the elite-level zombies.
So in the face of this situation, they didn't react for a while, and several people were hit by the car.
All of a sudden, there was no sound.
Although everyone did not flee immediately, there was already a sense of deceasement among the survivors.
Although they have guns in their hands, at such a distance, they can't shoot those elite-level zombies with a single hit.
To put it bluntly, the firepower of their guns is too weak.
The only machine gun had to be in front to shoot at the ordinary zombies, and fortunately a thick wall was made on the machine gun side as a defensive measure.
Otherwise, the car smashed over and smashed the machine gun, and their most powerful weapon would be gone.
When Lu Cheng saw the scene in front of him, he knew that he had to make a move, but against the firepower of the survivors, it was obviously a fool's dream to go to the middle to deal with those elite-level zombies in close combat.
Not to mention the danger, there is a possibility of being accidentally injured by your own survivors.
Let's just say that there are so many ordinary zombies in front of you, as well as elite-level zombies, if you rush up.
Although Lu Cheng is a viscount-level zombie, he doesn't have the confidence to be able to deal with so many special zombies at the same time.
Fortunately, Lu Cheng seized a big killing weapon not long ago, and brought it over this time.
Lu Cheng quickly picked up his Barrett sniper rifle, this thing he had wanted to give it a try for a long time.
It's just that there hasn't been a suitable occasion.
Needless to say, the power of the Barrett sniper rifle is understood.
And when Lu Cheng set up the sniper rifles, those who were holding scrap cars were trying to smash the elite-level zombies of the survivors.
The magnitude of the problem has not yet been realized.
Lu Cheng aimed the Barrett sniper rifle at one of the elite-level zombies who looked like a licker.
His level has reached LV9, and he is almost ready to enter the baron-level zombie.
However, Lu Cheng would not give him a chance to continue to upgrade, only to see the Barrett sniper rifle with an extra-long barrel, and with a bang, the sound of bullets piercing the sky.
The sound of the gunfire could be heard throughout the battlefield, representing the art of conventional human weapons, which played its due role at this time.
The bullet, which had been fired across the battlefield, exploded the licker's head with a single shot under the gaze of everyone.
The licker still had the wreckage of the car he had just lifted, but his head was pierced by Barrett's bullet.
And the kinetic energy brought by the bullet exploded in an instant, blowing up half of his head.
This is still his elite-level zombie, and his physical strength is very high.
If it were ordinary people, I'm afraid that half of my body would be gone together this time.
The moment Lu Cheng made his move, the morale of the survivors was high.
As for the elite-level zombies, they don't seem to have realized the seriousness of the problem.
After all, bullets were being fired at them everywhere, and just one elite-level zombie had fallen, and they hadn't been aware of the special situation on the battlefield that had occurred.
However, when Lu Cheng fired the second Barrett bullet, which pierced the upper body of an elite-level zombie and took away most of his head, those elite-level zombies finally reacted to what was happening on the battlefield.
Naturally, they noticed Lu Cheng, who was sniping at them from a distance with a Barrett sniper rifle.
But the wreckage of the car in their hands did not directly hurt Lu Cheng.
Under the threat of Barrett's sniper rifle, those elite-level zombies did not choose to retreat, but rushed towards Lu Cheng's side more courageously.
And although the survivors of Lu Cheng used the firepower of hot weapons to temporarily suppress the charging zombies.
But as the zombies got closer and closer, they also had to retreat, to put it bluntly, the weapons in their hands were too weak.
And their hit rate can't be like Lu Cheng's one shot at a time, and it often takes several bullets to defeat an ordinary zombie.
In this case, a reload will also be required, and there is a possibility that the firearm will malfunction.
Over time, they had to shrink their front, when they retreated to the last barrier.
Xu Jingqiu decisively ordered the door to be opened and let them all enter the stronghold.
