Chapter 301: Long River Base

It's a vast plain, with no tall buildings and no zombies, just a straight railway. And at the end of the railway, there is a survivor base that seems to be out of sight!

"Is that the Changhe base......"

The eyes of everyone on the train widened.

The Changhe base is still some distance from the train, but even so, you can feel the huge size of the Changhe base, what if it is close?

And most importantly, there's really no zombie rush here!

"This is the Changhe base!"

Duan Xuchang, who was wearing a power armor, walked over. The threat has not been completely lifted yet, and he naturally did not relax.

He said to Wang Tao again:

"Wang Tao, you should have noticed just now that those zombies are a little different, right?"

"You mean the crystal nucleus?"

A blue crystal nucleus appeared in Wang Tao's hand.

"That's right! Most of the crystal nuclei are missing the phantom from before! Based on what we've just researched, it seems that there are no abilities in this crystal nucleus. I just asked people to try it, and this crystal nucleus can't be fused......"

Duan Xuchang's face was a little serious.

He didn't know if the change was good or bad, but it would obviously be a headache for a lot of people.

"I've also killed a lot of elite zombies, but only a few of the crystal nuclei in the zombies have abilities, and the other crystal nuclei have no abilities......"

Wang Tao shook his head.

He could see the properties of the nuclei, so he could be sure that most of them were inadequate. But what exactly happened, he didn't know.

Fortunately, only the crystal nucleus inside the corpse has changed. The crystal nucleus he carried on his own body was still in good condition.

The two exchanged for a while, but still didn't have a clue.

"It seems that we can only count on the Hope Institute......"

Duan Xuchang sighed.

If there's only one change, that's fine. I'm afraid there will be a chain reaction......

The two did not speak again.

As the train got closer to the base of the Long River, other vehicles began to appear around the train.

"There are survivors!"

Looking at the modified vehicles outside the train that were on par with the train, Nie Siyan stretched out her hand to greet them. However, the train was single-sided glass, and the people outside were obviously invisible.

The survivors were curious about the train, and from time to time stuck their heads out and screamed.

Wang Tao looked at these survivors and raised an eyebrow.

Basically, they are all second-order and third-order abilities, and their strength is not weak.

Slowly, there were more and more vehicles around the train, and some of the vehicles that were clearly coming out of the base turned around and followed the train after seeing it...... It feels like they're interested in the survivors inside the train.

Seeing this situation, Duan Xuchang explained:

"In addition to being curious, these people may be trying to pull you in. There are many organizations and forces in the base city...... To put it nicely, it is called relatively free; To put it mildly, it is a mixture of fish and dragons. So I suggest that you don't join any forces casually, there are so many of you, just wait for the high-level arrangement of the base......"

"I see...... I understand. Wang Tao nodded in understanding, and then asked, "Is the situation in the base city chaotic?" ”

Duan Xuchang explained:

"Some places are really chaotic, after all, you know, a lot of people will not be willing to be lonely once they have the strength. Now many people have become powerful abilities, so ...... But you don't have to worry too much, on the whole, there are a lot of rules and regulations in our base city, and everyone will abide by them. ”

This was also expected by Wang Tao.

Now, if there is a large base like Utopia, he thinks there is a problem......

The train is getting closer and closer to the Changhe base, and the 20,000 survivors on the train are getting more and more excited.

"What a big base!"

Ding Yuqin and his entourage were also more and more surprised.

They couldn't see the whole of the base now, and all they could see was that towering wall that seemed to have no end!

When the train finally came to the gate of the base, everyone, including Wang Tao, was shocked.

In this position, they looked up from the window and could not see how high the outer wall of the base was at all!

"This high wall...... It feels like you can stop the giant zombies! ”

Wang Tao muttered to himself.

"That's right, the highest giant zombie we've seen so far is more than eighty meters. And our outer walls are more than a hundred meters high! ”

Duan Xuchang nodded proudly.

"Shhhh

Everyone gasped.

No wonder there is no end in sight in this position, more than a hundred meters high! This is at least equivalent to a high-rise building with more than thirty or forty floors!

The outer wall of the previous Bauhinia base was only about ten meters high, and it could block a large number of corpses, if it wasn't for the fourth-order night demon zombies that destroyed the wall, it could still be blocked for a long time! You can imagine how powerful the defense of this more than 100-meter-high city wall is! After all, if you want to build such a high wall, you can't just have height and no thickness, and its thickness must be extremely amazing!

Wang Tao was also amazed.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would definitely not have believed that someone could build such a tall wall in the last days!

Boom Boom –

The train slowly approached, and the gates of the city walls slowly opened.

This gate alone is taller than the outer wall of the previous Bauhinia base!

And when the door opened, it was dark inside, and there seemed to be no end in sight.

Airplanes!

The inside of the gate tunnel lit up with a dim yellow light.

"I'll go! How thick this wall must be! Opening the door turned out to be a tunnel! ”

Xiang Hongbin muttered to himself in disbelief.

This gate should not be open often, and the vehicles that followed the train before entered the base through another small gate. Of course, it is said that it is a small door, but it is actually very tall, and it is no problem to even run a train.

Bang

As the train entered the tunnel behind the gate, everyone also saw the thickness of the two gates. It can only be said that it is estimated that no one with special abilities can push this door open, right?

The sense of security is overwhelming!

After a while, everyone only felt that their eyes were bright. The train has finally passed through the wall tunnel and officially entered the base of the Long River!

"Everyone, welcome to the Changhe base!"

Duan Xuchang had already taken off his power armor at this time and changed into a crisp dark green military uniform.

Wei Zhenguo and the others also found out that the epaulettes on his military uniform were not the same as those on his own.

As if seeing the doubts of several people, Duan Xuchang pointed to his epaulettes and the badge on his chest and said with a smile:

"Changhe Base City has undergone some reforms earlier, and now there is no official government, and there is no official army, and the previous identity is all invalid. We are now part of the Third Army Corps. ”

Wei Zhenguo and the others suddenly realized.

Hearing that there was no government and the government army, they were inexplicably a little melancholy, but it was not too surprising.

After all, there are a large number of supernatural people now, and it is impossible to follow the previous set.

Even if this base was built by the government army before, they will give up some of their power after seeing that the civilian supernatural ones are getting stronger and stronger......

"Who is the ruler of this Long River Base now?"

He Jijun asked suddenly.

Before, they all thought that this place was ruled by the government or the government army, but now it seems that this is not the case.

"Changhe Base City is too big, and it is not and cannot be ruled by a certain force or a certain person. If you're referring to the highest authority in Base City, it's the Long River Committee......"

"Committee ......"

Wei Zhenguo and the others subconsciously glanced at each other, they had also made a committee when they were at the Mizusawa base before...... This is indeed a more appropriate system.

Amid the exchange of several people, the train slowly stopped.

"Everyone, it's here."

It's a huge train station, and it's already crowded with people at this time. In addition to some melon-eating masses, there was also a team of heavily armed soldiers.

Buzz –

Car 2 was the first to open the door.

Wang Tao and his entourage left the train under the leadership of Duan Xuchang.

As soon as he got out of the car, Wang Tao saw a burly middle-aged figure escorted by a group of soldiers, and the middle-aged man laughed and said:

"Welcome to the Long River Base! I am Hou Zhiyuan, the commander of the Third Legion. ”

Hou Zhiyuan is a third-order ability with 100,000 blood, and he has no hidden ability. Wang Tao felt that with the combat power under his hands, he should have the strength to awaken, but unfortunately he did not have the ability to hide and could not meet the conditions for awakening......

"Hello! I am Lan Yulian, the leader of the former Bauhinia Base. Thank you so much for your help! ”

Lan Yulian and Wang Tao walked in the front together, and after she introduced herself, Wang Tao continued:

"Hello Commander Hou, I'm Wang Tao, the same person I contacted you at the military base before. Thank you so much for your help! ”

"Haha! Don't say kind words, we survivors should help each other! I've prepared a place for you to rest, so why don't you 20,000 survivors settle down first?" ”

Although this is Hou Zhiyuan's territory, he didn't show much toughness, and even spoke in a consultative tone to Wang Tao and his party.

"Then thank you Captain Hou!"

Lan Yulian naturally would not refuse.

After she agreed, Duan Xuchang began to open the doors of the other carriages in turn.

Hou Zhiyuan immediately waved his hand, and a number of military trucks drove over.

The survivors who got off the train were excited, but at the same time a little reserved. They subconsciously glanced at Lan Yulian and Wang Tao, and after seeing the two nodding, they followed and got into the car. Before getting on the bus, another check was carried out to make sure no one was carrying the zombie virus.

The onlookers outside the train station saw that there were so many survivors inside the train, and their eyes lit up one by one. But after seeing that these survivors were all picked up by the people of the Third Legion, most of them shook their heads in disappointment and left, and only a few of them did not give up.

"It's all trying to pull you newcomers into the gang. Ignore it! ”

Hou Zhiyuan waved his hand, and then rubbed his temples again.

"I'm relieved to see that you're all back safely. But today the zombies have evolved, there have been some changes, and I still have a lot of things to do. Next, let Duan Xuchang lead you to familiarize yourself with the base. I'm going to take some time to invite you to dinner these two days! ”

"You're busy!"

Lan Yulian hurriedly said.

Hou Zhiyuan left in a hurry.

As for the arrangements for everyone, he didn't elaborate. He didn't even mention the great credit of rescuing 20,000 people.

Wang Tao felt that Hou Zhiyuan sent troops to save so many people, and he must have really wanted to help the Bauhinia Base, but he must also have some goals of his own.

Now that he has come to the Changhe base, after knowing the general situation here, Wang Tao feels that this Hou Zhiyuan may want to let these survivors join their legion!

If he really had this kind of thought, Wang Tao would not be disgusted. On the contrary, there is something to be happy about. After all, this is equivalent to not only saving such a survivor, but also arranging a job! This is naturally a good thing!

"Come with me!"

Duan Xuchang led Wang Tao and his party into a minibus. There is an instrument for detecting impurities in the body in the car, which should be specially prepared for Wang Tao and them.

Everyone checked in turn, and after making sure that there was nothing wrong, the vehicle slowly left the train station.

Seeing that Wang Tao and his party didn't even come out of the station, they left directly by car. The rest of the people outside the train station sighed.

"Alas, there is no hope! Now we can't pull them into our organization, and it's even harder later! ”

"This Third Legion is really nosy, and it can't let other survivors move freely!"

"Are you a fool? These survivors were apparently rescued by the Third Legion! Do you think they'll leave these hard-earned survivors for your organization? ”

“……”

"Is it possible...... The Third Legion wants to take in all 20,000 men! They can eat it! ”

"It shouldn't be enough to be absorbed, after all, if you want to join these legions, there is also an assessment, and they don't want everyone. But they definitely want to absorb some of them...... In the last operation, the Third Army lost some manpower, and this time it is estimated that it can replenish a wave of fresh blood......"

"Damn, why don't we have such good luck! I had been out there for so many days, and I hadn't met a few survivors. Last time, we lost a lot of manpower, and if we don't add some manpower, our organization will die in name only......"

"Hey! There are so many people in our base! You don't have to keep an eye on the newcomer! ”

"Ahem, isn't that a newcomer cheap and easy to fool......"

……

……

"Freshly baked cockroach cream! A must-have for going out at home! Don't miss the ...... as you walk by."

"A short knife made by the claws of the third-order night demon, blowing hair and breaking hair, sharpening iron like clay! This is the only one in the base city! Three-fold tearful sale! ”

"There are only the last three hardcover houses left near the University of Strangers, which can be rented or sold! First come, first served! ”

"Big deal for the opening of the giant barbecue! Charge as much as you want, get as much as you want! ”

"The mutant rat that can accompany you in battle has been trained, and the price you have to pay!"

“……”

On the bus, looking at the survivors coming and going on the wide street, and listening to all kinds of strange cries, Lan Yulian sighed:

"That's what a real base looks like!"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Compared with other survivor bases, the biggest difference between the Changhe base is that it is "popular".

The bases they had been at before were simply "a gathering place for survivors struggling to survive".

And now in Changhe Base City, it is not only a survivor base, but also a human society!

In other bases, no matter how safe the base seems, they don't feel like it's really safe in their hearts. They all think about killing zombies, improving their strength, and surviving......

But after coming here, not to mention the sense of security, the first thought in their minds now is not how to kill zombies to improve their strength, but how to live a good life in the base!

I used to think about survival, but now I ...... Thinking about life!

Seeing everyone's exclamation, Duan Xuchang said loudly:

"There are still a lot of good places in the base city, you can go back and walk more, I believe you will like it here!"

"Thank you! But we've got a love for ...... now."

Lan Yulian sighed a little.

Duan Xuchang deliberately took the group around the street to feel the smell of fireworks in the base city, and then asked the driver to drive the car to an area protected by soldiers.

"This is one of the territories belonging to our Third Army Corps, and the families of some of the senior non-commissioned officers live here. We've got you here for the time being, so you can move out at any time. However, I personally recommend that it is not too late to move out after you are familiar with the base and determine your future development direction......"

Listening to Duan Xuchang's words, Wang Tao raised his eyebrows.

"Where is the future going? Do you think we have anything suitable? ”

"Haha, of course I want you to join our Third Legion! But I also know it's unlikely...... As for my suggestion, it is that there is no suggestion for the time being. Because after you excellent abilities come to the base, they will definitely give you some preferential treatment or something, so you wait to see what the situation is, and then think about what to do......"

Duan Xuchang explained with a smile.

He knew that the most powerful people were reluctant to join the army, because the army was the place with the strictest rules, even in the last days.

After all, soldiers fight as a team, and they do not represent themselves, but as a team. If something goes wrong with one person, it may even affect the entire legion! So it has to be strict.

And for many supernatural beings, they finally have such a powerful power, and they have to abide by such strict discipline, how can it work!

Therefore, most of the Adepts are reluctant to join the army.

Of course, those who are themselves military are exceptions, such as Wei Zhenguo and others...... Duan Xuchang really wanted to recruit them.

However, Duan Xuchang also said that he had to see how Wang Tao and the others were to be distributed and what kind of treatment they were given. Then he'll see if he can get people to the Third Legion......

"Okay!"

Wang Tao smiled and nodded.

I have to say that Duan Xuchang is still quite sincere, and Wang Tao has a great impression of him and the entire Third Army.

After Duan Xuchang took Wang Tao and his entourage to briefly visit the room prepared for them, he said to them:

"Next, I'll give you some common problems in the base city......

A new volume has begun~

Today and tomorrow will be updated for the time being, and I'll sort out the plot behind~
