This New Year's party doesn't last long, starting at six o'clock in the afternoon and ending at nine o'clock in the evening.

The main purpose of the party is to show the residents in the base the current strength of the base, describe the future of the good, and let them have confidence in the new year.

After the party ended, the live broadcast of course ended. The residents in front of the screen should eat Chinese New Year's Eve Chinese New Year's Eve meal, and they can go to bed early after eating, after all, it has been too cold for the past two days, and the bed is still warm, if you don't want to go to bed so early, you can also keep vigil until 0:00 to welcome the arrival of the New Year.

Fireworks, firecrackers, and the like...... Naturally, there is none.

It's not that I'm afraid of attracting zombies, the Changhe base is big enough, and if you really set off firecrackers inside, the sound can't be transmitted, let alone a high wall. The main reason is that gunpowder is a strategic material, which can be saved, and it is better to use it in the right place.

However, when it is midnight, the loudspeaker in the base will sound at that time, and the countdown to welcome the New Year is somewhat atmospheric.

In the Great Hall, where the party was held, the live broadcast party was over, but the event was not completely over.

The people who attended the party had apparently received the news, so none of them left.

Wang Tao looked at Qu Shilin next to him with some curiosity.

"Do you know what's next?"

Yao Guodong asked Wang Tao not to leave, saying that he would leave after another event, but Wang Tao didn't have time to ask what it was.

Qu Shilin shook her head.

"I don't know."

Wang Tao looked at Cheng Yiyi on the other side.

Cheng Yiyi obviously knew something, and she explained in a low voice:

"There is a high probability that it will be a trade fair...... Because I was informed that after the party, there would be a trade fair within the six legions. But looking at the situation now, it seems that the scale of this trade fair has changed a little, and the scale is not limited to the six legions......"

"Is the trade fair ......?"

Wang Tao pondered.

Now in this Great Hall, the entire base should have more than medium powers, and if a trade fair is held at this time, the scale is not small. But this fair was held a little too suddenly, and they were not ready......

"What were you going to trade?"

Wang Tao leaned over and asked in a low voice.

"Probably just some weapons and equipment or something, anyway, I don't have anything to trade here......" Cheng Yiyi shrugged, and then said, "But these trading things shouldn't be used by anyone else, right?" After all, it's like tanks, missiles, etc., this can only be traded within our six legions, and it shouldn't be that anyone else is involved......"

Cheng Yiyi was also a little puzzled, and she didn't feel like a trade fair.

"Then we'll see later......"

Wang Tao didn't ask any more.

It didn't take long for Gu Yun to walk onto the stage with a microphone.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry for the delay, but this upcoming event is temporarily added, so I didn't notify you in advance...... But this is a very important thing, so please don't leave in a hurry...... There are two things in total, let's talk about the first thing first - the ...... of the trade fair"

"It's a fair!"

Wang Tao raised his eyebrows.

However, after listening to Gu Yun's explanation, Wang Tao found that this trade fair was a little different from what he imagined. In addition to buying things with money in the traditional sense, there are also various kinds of cooperation.

For example, you can spend money to ask the six major legions to do something, and the more difficult it is, the more money you will spend.

For another example, you can ask someone to help you awaken, this price is estimated to be very expensive, but if you can succeed, you will earn blood.

You can even "sell yourself" - in fact, it is to find a boss to eat......

Anyway, there will be various forms of trading this time, and it looks quite interesting.

"As for the second thing...... It's the committee that plans to arrange someone to go out of the city tomorrow, and the six legions will lead the team, so you can sign up......"

Wow –

As soon as these words came out, they instantly caused a commotion.

With such a heavy snow outside and such a cold weather, wouldn't it be a death to go out at this time!

Although the snow this afternoon is already light, and it is not as terrible as the previous blizzard, who knows if it will continue to snow after that!

Wang Tao also frowned a little.

It is obviously unwise and dangerous to go out of the city at this time. Unless there is a large benefit to be gained, which outweighs the risk......

Isn't that going to the cave? But that's not the time I said before, right?

At this time, Cheng Yiyi seemed to have gotten some news, and got up and went directly to the committee.

Gu Yun waited until everyone had talked for a while before he continued to speak:

"We just got the news that it is basically a cold and snowy place outside the base, and I know that it is definitely not appropriate to go out at this time, but we found that the zombies in the corpse tide outside are ...... It's like it's frozen! ”

“……”

Zombies frozen?

After everyone at the scene was stunned for a moment, they instantly became excited.

Previously, the city hall estimated the number of corpses outside the base, and conservatively estimated that there were more than 500,000 zombies, and they were all third-order and fourth-order zombies, and there were many elite zombies. As for the lord zombies, there are not many, but there are also a few fifth-order, and there even seems to be a sixth-order.

Let's not talk about the lord zombies, let's just talk about these ordinary, elite zombies, although they are dangerous, they also represent a large number of crystal nuclei!

Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible to kill so many zombies. Unless you use a big killer weapon like a missile or even a nuclear bomb, but this thing can be used without it, otherwise it may create some super zombies and bring great trouble to the base.

And now, Gu Yun said that these zombies were frozen!

Isn't that their chance?

If you can kill these zombies, not only can you cut off a big threat, but more importantly, you can get the crystal nucleus in the heads of these zombies!

At this time, Gu Yun continued to speak:

"According to our estimates, the crystal nuclei of all the zombies in these corpse tides are worth more than one billion ......."

"More than a billion yuan!"

Everyone exclaimed again, and Wang Tao could feel that many people's breathing was a little short.

It's worth a billion!

If you can get all these crystal nuclei - no, it's impossible to get them all, even if you can get one percent, that's ten million! Not to mention 10 million, for individuals, 1 million can be free of wealth, and they will eat in the base for the rest of their lives and wait for death!

Of course, for these people, it is definitely impossible to eat and wait for death, but if they can get so much money, it can also help them improve a lot of strength.

"What does Secretary General Gu mean that the six legions are going to lead us out to hunt these frozen zombies?"

Someone hurriedly asked.

"Yes."

Gu Yun nodded, and then said.

"But let's be clear, those zombies outside haven't been completely frozen, after all, if they are completely frozen, we won't be able to go out...... But their movement is really very limited! Therefore, if you want to go out with the six legions, you can sign up...... Of course, there is still a certain danger in going out, so this is all voluntary, and everyone has a day to think about it, so there is no need to rush. Next, our trade fair officially begins! ”

After Gu Yun finished speaking, he stepped down, and the people below fell into the discussion again.

Cheng Yiyi also happened to come back at this time, she came to Wang Tao and whispered:

"I said, how did I not know about this! It's really an emergency, I've just asked clearly......"

“…… I see! ”

After listening to Cheng Yiyi's words, Wang Tao suddenly realized.

To put it simply, before the heavy snowfall, there was a group of people trapped outside, and those people were already desperate, but the heavy snow became lighter again, so they quickly seized the opportunity to run to the base.

On the way back, a group of zombies blocked their way, and they thought they were going to go through a fierce battle, but they found that these zombies were frozen in the snow!

Of course, it's not that the zombies have been frozen into ice sculptures, but their movement has been greatly restricted.

So this group of people tried to attack, and sure enough, they found that these zombies were too much easier to kill than before!

After killing the zombies, they managed to escape.

After coming back, the gatekeepers on the base side were surprised that the people trapped outside could still come back, so they chatted a few more words.

Then they learned that the zombies were frozen, so they quickly reported the news.

When the city hall got the news, it was just when the party began. Yao Guodong left halfway, just to deal with this matter.

For ordinary people, zombies being frozen may be an after-dinner conversation. But for the town hall, this may be the possibility of eliminating the nearby corpse tide!

If the zombies are frozen, as those people say, then they can definitely wipe out the zombie tide by gathering a large army!

But hearing is false, seeing is believing.

The premise of eliminating the zombie tide is that the news that the zombies are frozen is accurate. So the city hall = this side reported the news to the committee and immediately sent someone out to investigate.

And it was risky to send helicopters to reconnoitre.

They found the corpse tide, just like the group of people said before, the zombies in the corpse tide were also frozen, and they moved extremely slowly!

What a godsend!

If you can really eliminate this zombie tide, you can not only solve the zombie threat, but also obtain a large number of crystal nuclei! Win-win!

And this time is just right, if it was a little earlier, the zombies were not frozen, then naturally there was no way; If it is a little later, when the zombies are completely frozen, the difficulty of killing may be lower, but whether they can come out is a question - if the temperature is too low, they are also afraid of being frozen to death! Not to mention that if there is a snowstorm, you can't see the road...... So you can't miss the opportunity, you have to take advantage of the moment to kill those zombies outside!

Just when I was watching the party, the 23 members of the committee had actually held an internal meeting, and the plan to take the opportunity to go out and hunt zombies was approved by many votes.

Before the end of the party, Yao Guodong immediately arranged for someone to keep the guests in the hall, after all, this matter should be sooner rather than later, set the final plan today, and you can set off tomorrow!

This is also the reason why the original trade fair suddenly expanded in scale, from the six major legions to all the forces present, is to let everyone take advantage of the current strength to improve their strength, hurry up and improve their strength, don't go out and drag their feet.

And the reason why Cheng Yiyi didn't know was because the resolution just passed by the committee hadn't had time to inform her.

"In that case, this is indeed an opportunity ......"

Wang Tao nodded.

Although the corpse tide is still some distance from the base, and there is no intention of rushing to the base, this is still a big threat, especially since the corpse tide is still getting bigger, and maybe one day the base will be besieged.

If there is a chance to wipe out this corpse tide, it is definitely necessary to catch it, let alone have such a crystal nucleus......

However, after Qu Shilin listened, she frowned.

"But there's a problem – how can you guarantee that after going out tomorrow, there won't be a blizzard? Although the heavy snow has stopped now, what if it falls again tomorrow after going out tomorrow? ”

There is no guarantee of this, because her fellow meteorologists have no way of predicting when it will snow, so they can only speculate that there will be more snow during this winter.

"So, it's also a gamble, and it's very risky to go out. Of course, the base also considers that extreme situations may occur, and they have some contingency plans......"

Cheng Yiyi said.

Lan Yulian and the others, who had not spoken, looked at Wang Tao and asked if Wang Tao was going.

"I think I can go, because I'm not afraid of the cold, haha!"

Xiang Hongbin suddenly laughed and spoke.

After his body is modified, it is both heat-resistant and frost-resistant, and in a place with a lower temperature, his combat effectiveness will be higher - because his mechanical prosthetics will heat up after being used for a long time, if the ambient temperature he is in is low, he can help his mechanical prosthetics cool down and avoid being burned out, so that he can always exert his maximum performance!

Wang Tao nodded and said:

"You can think about it, let's see what the specific plan is on the base side first......

Gu Yun only mentioned this matter, and the specific details have not been said.

Wang Tao is still a little afraid of this matter, not afraid of zombies, but afraid of nature......

At this point, the fair has already begun.

Originally, for everyone on the scene, this trade fair came a little too suddenly, except for the six legions, everyone else was not prepared at all, and they didn't know what to trade. And now after listening to Gu Yun's words, they instantly made their goal clear - trading things that could immediately improve their combat effectiveness!

This time, the six legions personally led the team, and since the establishment of the Changhe base, there have been few such large-scale operations.

With the six legions, the sense of security must not be said, but they are hunting zombies, and their own safety is far from enough, such a good opportunity cannot be used to play soy sauce, this opportunity must be seized!

Some people have already started shouting, some sell weapons, some want win-win cooperation, and some sell some messy things, saying that they can improve combat effectiveness......

Wang Tao was about to go for a spin when someone suddenly came.

"President Lan, will your Spark have time? I would like to ask you to help me awaken ......"
