Chapter 98 The Second Airdrop After the Rain

"The rain has stopped..."

When he got up in the morning and looked at the clear sky outside, Wang Tao frowned a little.

This was the longest rain he had ever seen in his life. The rain started when he came out to look for the Shuizhe base and ended yesterday. It lasted for half a month.

Fortunately, the previous rain was not that heavy. If it had been as heavy as the heavy rain in the past three days, Shuize County might have been flooded.

Ding Yuqin had already gotten up and prepared breakfast for Wang Tao.

"Sister-in-law, how much food do we have at home?"

Wang Tao asked while eating.

"Not counting nutritional supplements, there are..."

Ding Yuqin took out a list and explained it to Wang Tao in a clear and logical manner.

After listening, Wang Tao knocked on the table.

"There's not much food left, so I just want to go out and loot this time..."

Although he had collected a lot of food before, his appetite was so big that he could eat more than several people. So food is consumed very quickly.

Of course, if you save a little on these foods, you can eat them for a while, but since Wang Tao has the ability, there is no need to be too frugal. After all, if you are not full, you will not have the strength to kill zombies.

After breakfast, Wang Tao, with the help of Ding Yuqin, was fully armed, and then went to the garage to drive out his new energy off-road vehicle.

As soon as I went out, I could clearly feel that the outside world was a little different.

Almost all the skin of the courtyard wall has fallen off, and it is covered with wall-creeping tigers. There are green moss all over the base of the wall, and a lot of leeks and green plants have grown in the yard.

There were several cars belonging to the on-duty personnel parked outside the yard, and the cars were all somewhat rusty; some road signs were also rusty, and some of them were even hard to read...

Wang Tao suddenly felt like time was being accelerated. It felt like it had been accelerated by at least three months or half a year!

"Is there any problem with your car?"

Wang Tao opened the car window and asked the officers on duty.

Several officers on duty looked bad.

"Back to Commissioner Wang, there are a lot of minor problems with the car, and many places inside are rusty... But mine is pretty good, at least it can still start. Some other cars can't start at all..."

Wang Tao frowned.

For some survivors, there is no shortage of cars. There are many cars on the street outside. As long as you have the ability to open the lock and are not afraid of the movement attracting zombies, you can have a car of your own in the apocalypse.

But with such corrosive acid rain, the car will have problems! There are so many cars on the street that are uncovered, and most of them may not be able to drive. In the future, these cars and so on will probably be high-value products...

After leaving the committee area, Wang Tao drove slowly to the complex building.

The buildings on campus are becoming obsolete as if time has accelerated. The plants downstairs are growing wildly and climbing up the walls.

"Hello, Commissioner Wang!"

After Wang Tao arrived at the complex, other survivors hurriedly greeted him when they saw him.

"Um."

Wang Tao nodded slightly, then went upstairs to meet Wei Zhenguo and the others.

After so many days of recuperation, Wei Zhenguo finally no longer needs to use a wheelchair. However, after a hundred days of breaking his muscles and bones, his injuries did not get better easily, and he is still in a state of residual blood.

Wang Tao suddenly thought that the medical kit exploded by the zombies he killed would be able to restore blood to injuries like Wei Zhenguo's. It should be possible, right? I'll give it a try when I get a chance. Wingdings: ♦︎♦︎⬧︎♦︎◆︎⌧︎♦︎♦︎□︎❍︎

Wei Zhenguo nodded to Wang Tao.

"Everyone is here, let's talk about it. Everyone has seen the situation in the past few days. This corrosive rainstorm has brought great changes to our place. Things left outside, including cars, houses, etc., have been corroded... …And this is only the situation inside our base. We don’t know what the situation is outside the base, but I always feel that it may be more dangerous outside.”

Wei Zhenguo's face looked a little sad.

In the last days, any unknown represents danger. Originally, everyone was somewhat accustomed to life in the apocalypse, but after the heavy rain, everyone felt a little strange about the apocalypse...

"Whatever! The soldiers will stop us, and the water will cover us. We have survived for more than a month, and surviving for more than a month is not a big problem!"

Xiang Hongbin said carelessly.

"I'm just worried that if the plants outside grow up, it will be easier for zombies to hide..."

Ren Jie frowned.

Although he didn't go out of the base very often, he was still worried about the hunters and Xiang Hongbin who often went out.

"If plants keep growing like this crazily, then this may not only be a problem for zombies to hide...haven't you ever seen those human-eating plants in movies before?"

Liu He murmured.

Everyone fell into silence.

Zombies alone are scary enough. If man-eating plants appear again... then human survival will be even more difficult!

"Hey! We'll talk about the future later. Let's study our current situation first!"

Wei Zhenguo waved his hand.

No one can predict what will happen in the future. It's good that they have survived until now. They don't have the time or energy to think about it that much.

"No one has gone out to look for supplies in the past few days. There is not enough food in our base..."

Most of the supplies in the base are collected outside, especially food and the like. Although you can also grow food yourself, the cycle is too long. The base is also prepared in this regard, but it is difficult to see results in a short period of time. So I mainly rely on collecting from outside. With so many people in Shuize County turning into zombies, there is still a lot of food left.

Now that the rain has stopped, I have to go out to collect supplies, because no one knows when it will rain again. If it still rains this kind of corrosive acid rain, then there is no way to go out...

After the meeting, Wang Tao and others decided to take advantage of the sunny weather in the past few days to increase the base's contribution to the acquisition of supplies so that the hunters would be more active in searching for supplies.

Of course, committee members like them who are capable of fighting will also lead the team in person to collect supplies and see if there are any special zombies. The fact that Feng Ming'an became a superpower made everyone jealous.

"...That's it, the tasks these days are mainly about searching for supplies! Xiang Hongbin leads the security army team, Feng Ming'an leads the police hunter team, and Lu Gang leads your sniper team... As for Wang Tao, you are Lead someone or fight alone?"

Wei Zhenguo looked at Wang Tao.

When searching for supplies in the last days, more people don’t necessarily mean more. More people will increase the risk of exposure. Especially for those who don’t have strong command skills.

It's hard to say whether Wang Tao's commanding ability is strong or not. After all, no one has had the opportunity to see it, but Wang Tao has always been a loner in the past, so Wei Zhenguo asked.

After thinking for a while, Wang Tao said:

"I'll just take Han Rui with me."

If you are specifically hunting special zombies, you can bring more people with you, but if you are just searching for supplies, you don't need to.

Several people looked at Wang Tao with strange eyes. Why does Wang Tao always stay with married women? Could it be that he likes this?

But it's not a big deal. It's the end of the world, Wang Tao is capable, and what he did is not something harmful to nature, so naturally no one will say anything.

"Okay! It's settled then!"

Wei Zhenguo finalized the plan. In fact, he also wanted to go out, but his injury was not healed yet. He would be a burden if he went out now.

After the meeting, Wang Tao just stood up when his ears suddenly twitched.

"What a sound...a plane!"

He quickly came to the window, and the other people were a little confused.

"Wang Tao, what's wrong with you?"

After Wang Tao closed his eyes and carefully determined the direction, he suddenly looked up at somewhere in the sky and said:

"Look to the sky!"

The improvement of physical fitness will also enhance Wang Tao's five senses. He has the strongest physical fitness among these people, and his five senses are also the sharpest.

Everyone looked at the place pointed by Wang Tao. After a few seconds, Wei Zhenguo, Xiang Hongbin and Lu Gang were all shocked.

"It's a plane! Is it an airdrop?"

They are all too familiar with the buzz of airplanes!

After a while, I saw a small black dot appear in the sky. Those who had telescopes took out their telescopes and took a look.

"It's a military transport plane! It's really an airdrop!"

Several people were a little excited, there were good things in the airdrop!

When Wang Tao saw them like this, he knew that they must have picked up the airdrop.

Wei Zhenguo thought Wang Tao didn't understand the airdrop, so he explained it to him.

"There are a lot of good things in this airdrop, including food, bullets, medical kits, and some airdrops even contain inhibitors!"

"All the inhibitors in our base come from airdrops?"

Wang Tao suddenly asked.

He wanted to know where the inhibitors in the base came from before, but he forgot to ask, and now he just remembered.

Wei Zhenguo nodded and said:

"That's right, only the airdrops contain inhibitors..."

Listening to his words, Wang Tao was slightly disappointed.

He hoped that Wei Zhenguo and the others were still in contact with the government and obtained these inhibitors from special channels. This would at least prove that the government still had a certain power... But now it seems that Wei Zhenguo and the others are completely unable to contact them. Going to the official government...

"At that time, we got a total of six airdrop boxes, two of which contained inhibitors, a total of forty bottles. We haven't used one bottle yet..."

Wei Zhenguo's tone was somewhat emotional. Because many people were eaten directly after being infected by zombies... there was no time to use inhibitors.

Wang Tao was a little speechless. He worked hard to get an airdrop box, and he only dared to take one. Unexpectedly, the Mizusawa Base took six!

Sure enough, there is strength in numbers!

Xiang Hongbin then continued:

"Many people in our base died in order to get these airdrops... The committee hadn't been established at that time, and Xiao Liu, Lao Song and Lao Wei hadn't come yet... Oh! It's so fucked up!"

"..."

Wang Tao shook his head. Sure enough, if you choose to take airdrops, you must be prepared to pay the price.

"Then let's..."

Liu He looked at everyone expectantly. He had never seen an airdrop in reality.

"Get the airdrop first!"

Wei Zhenguo said decisively.

Although there are dangers in taking airdrops, benefits and risks coexist. The medical kits, bullets, inhibitors, etc. in the airdrop are all good things. And he also wants to know what the situation is like at this military base now. Since they can still airdrop, does that mean the situation in the military base has improved, right?

If that's the case, that's definitely good news.

Not to mention military support, even if there is only an airdrop every now and then, it is enough for many people to use!

"Okay!"

Everyone has no objection. Getting an airdrop is equivalent to finding a lot of supplies.

"Remember, if you have the chance, give priority to airdrops with parachutes. Such airdrops may contain ammunition and inhibitors! Airdrops without parachutes are basically food and clothing..."

"Understood."

Everyone nodded, and then immediately went to prepare.

Ren Jie also broadcasted in the base, telling everyone that an airdrop has appeared, and ambiguously said that there are good things in the airdrop, so that everyone who has the ability can take it, whether for personal use or to hand it over to the base in exchange for contribution points.

Not telling these people that there are inhibitors in the airdrop is, on the one hand, a secret, after all, the base's contribution system relies on inhibitors to attract people. This is also a trump card of the base.

On the other hand, it is because he is afraid that these hunters are too greedy. After all, a bottle of inhibitor is worth 100,000 contribution points, and this is equivalent to half a life. If they want the airdrop too much and go to get it despite knowing that it is dangerous, they will probably become lunch for the zombies.

There are not many survivors in the base, and even fewer hunters. Every hunter who dies is a loss to the base, and Ren Jie naturally does not want anyone to die.

The news of the airdrop instantly made the base boil. When the first airdrop happened, many people heard the sound, but they only heard the sound of the plane. Many people have never seen an airdrop.

Now that they heard that the airdrop appeared again, the survivors were very curious and wanted to know what the airdrop looked like and what good things were inside.

And those hunters were eager to try. They were all staring at the plane in the sky in the square outside to see where the airdrop would fall.

Wang Tao called Han Rui, who had already changed into a combat training uniform in advance, and some places in her clothes were stuffed with steel plates.

"Come with me to get the airdrop."

"...Yes!"

Han Rui was a little excited. This was her first time to get an airdrop. Although she felt that it would be awkward to be with Wang Tao, she had to admit that when she was with Wang Tao... she felt very safe.

The sound of the military transport plane in the sky was getting louder and louder, and soon one airdrop after another was seen falling like eggs.

"Go, go, go!"

Xiang Hongbin's figure emerged from the firing port on the top of the military vehicle. He held up a rifle, shouted to everyone, and left the base first. The others followed closely.

Wang Tao looked at several airdrops with parachutes, then started the car and drove to the gate with Han Rui.

The situation outside the base was similar to that inside. At a glance, it was green everywhere. The road surface and buildings became old, and the vehicles were rusted...

But these are not the most important. The most important thing is that the zombies are different!

"Those zombies in the distance... seem to have become more rotten!"

Han Rui looked at the zombies not far from the gate of the base and was a little surprised.

Although the zombies in the past looked scary, they could still see what they looked like when they were alive.

Now, after this corrosive acid rain, it is impossible to distinguish the appearance of these zombies. Their hair is falling off, their faces are rotten, and their teeth are exposed... They look even more hideous!

It's not just the look, the zombies are actually stronger, because the health bar of ordinary zombies has become [1000/1000]!

Before, if they didn't eat people, their health bar was 500, and now it has doubled!

"These zombies have become stronger, I'm going to test their strength."

Wang Tao stopped the car, got out of the car with a fire axe, and walked towards the four zombies not far away.

Han Rui got out of the car with a short spear and followed Wang Tao.

There were four ordinary zombies in total, and their appearances were more ferocious, and they all had 1000 health.

"Hehe..."

Without the interference of heavy rain, the zombies' senses were much more acute. They found Wang Tao at a distance of more than ten meters, and they twisted their bodies and walked towards Wang Tao.

"Huh?"

But Wang Tao was suddenly stunned.

The speed of these zombies seems to have slowed down?

Wang Tao is already very familiar with zombies, including their attack power, defense power, speed, etc.

He could feel that the bodies of the zombies in front of him were stiffer and slower than before.

Wang Tao did not take action immediately, but waited until the zombies came to him and grabbed him. Wang Tao raised his left arm with a steel plate and resisted the zombie's attack.

Bang!

"The strength has increased!"

Although Wang Tao did not lose blood, he could clearly feel that the zombies were much stronger.

"Hehe..."

The other zombies also came to Wang Tao one after another. Wang Tao relied on his confidence in his own strength and tried a few more times. This made Han Rui, who was hiding on the side, nervous.

After determining the zombies' attack power and speed, Wang Tao picked up the axe and chopped down on the head of one of the zombies.

Puff!

[-1000]

[0/1000]

Even if the zombies' health doubled, it was still a one-axe kill for Wang Tao.

However, Wang Tao frowned as he looked at the wound he had caused. When he had killed ordinary zombies before, he had almost chopped off the zombies' heads with one blow of the axe. But now, he had only chopped off a crack in the zombies' heads...

"The zombies' defense has also increased!"

Wang Tao took another look at his health, and there was no increase.

As for the package that the zombies exploded, it was still an ordinary material.

[Obtained: Nail*1]

While thinking, Wang Tao did not stop his movements, and chopped the heads of the other zombies with the fire axe.

Puff!

[-1000]

Puff!

[-1000]

Puff!

[-1000]

All four ordinary zombies were killed instantly.

Han Rui was a little shocked. Although she had seen Wang Tao kill zombies instantly, she still felt shocked when she saw it now. After all, this was something she could not do herself.

"Let's go."

Wang Tao got back into the car and turned on the intercom.

"Everyone, pay attention! The overall strength of the zombies after the heavy rain has become stronger! But their bodies are stiffer and their speed has slowed down..."

"Received!"
