Chapter 531 Troops Forced Into Desperate Situation
Xiang Shi is the extraordinary captain of Jinzhou City. He leads 200 extraordinary people. He is usually responsible for cleaning up small groups of zombies and lone zombies wandering in the wild. He does not fight against the zombie tide.
Because dealing with the zombie tide requires area-of-effect weapons, the most popular ones currently within the Dragnet are crystal core detonation mines and another type of crystal core bomb that can be activated manually.
Each of them carries one or two to deal with small groups of zombies, such as groups of less than 1,000 zombies.
But today, after Xiang Shi came out with his troops, he chased more than 300 zombies to an abandoned warehouse.
According to yesterday’s intelligence, there were no zombies in this abandoned warehouse.
But when they arrived, they found that a reproductive body had come inside and was breeding little zombies.
Xiang Shi immediately made a decision and decided to destroy the nest that breeds zombies. However, the zombies did not surrender. He made a sharp scream and attracted the attention of the zombies on the edge of the city.
Perhaps the Z zombies in this zombie wave have spotted this reproductive body and want to absorb it into their own zombie wave team, which is near this abandoned warehouse.
As a result, the troops led by Xiang Shi met a wave of 600,000 corpses outside the warehouse.
"I am NM!"
Escape! Crazy escape!
The 200-person extraordinary troop and the 600,000-strong corpse tide were not forces on the same level at all. Xiang Shi fled directly out of the city with his troops!
Because the Tianluodiwang branch base in Jinzhou City was not prepared to meet this wave of corpses.
If these 600,000 corpses were really allowed to pounce, then not only their 200 extraordinary people would die, but also tens of thousands of civilians and all the extraordinary people in the entire Tianluo Diwang branch.
"Damn it, why is there no signal here? Today's communication equipment should be updated. Broken satellites cannot receive electromagnetic waves caused by energy fluctuations."
Xiang Shi put the satellite phone back in his pocket and ran away with his troops while cursing.
The pioneer force chasing them was a group of flying and agile zombies led by Y2 zombies and M2 zombies.
Extremely fast!
If it weren't for the fact that this was a city with many bunkers, they might have been stopped, but even though they were fully equipped, they were still losing numbers under the attacks of these second-level high-speed zombies.
When they reached the edge of the city, there were only 120 of them left, and the tide of corpses was led outside the city as they wished.
The number of high-rise buildings around them has gradually decreased, and the terrain has become more open, which is very unfavorable for their escape.
Xiang Shi took people and hid in a small factory that made barbecue ingredients. After stopping, he cursed:
"Damn corpse tide! Damn it, I can't retreat this time even though I'm still alive."
Other teammates were silent. They knew that they were being chased by 600,000 zombies. Without any flying equipment or flying abilities, it would be difficult for them to leave.
One of the younger male extraordinarys swelled up and activated the second-level gene lock:
"I'll fight them. If I kill ten of them, I won't lose. If I kill a bunch of them, I'll make a bloody profit."
Xiang Shi slapped him on the head: "You don't want your 50-year-old mother? How many times have I told you not to act like a hero when there are old people at home! You have no memory."
The young man touched his head and felt aggrieved.
Xiang Shi turned around and said seriously to all the team members: "Now, I need you to do as I ask. All people with families stand on the right side, and single people like me stand on the left side. Quick!"
The team members stood up according to Xiang Shi's request. The number of people on both sides was exactly half and half, with 60 people on each side.
"What are you doing on the left side? Get over here." Xiang Shi slapped the young transcendent from the left to the right.
The young extraordinary person said unconvinced: "Captain, don't think that I don't know what you want to do! Brothers all know my mother, and even if I leave, everyone will help me take care of her.
I.I'm not worried!
My mother said that a man should serve the country and win glory for the country in this life, and should not be greedy for life and afraid of death.
There are three martyrs in my family. My great-grandfather, my grandfather, and my father are all martyrs. I can’t be a coward. My mother will understand me!
I'll stay and break it up! "
That's right, Xiang Shi planned to let them escape in two groups. One group would stay here to break up the rear, and the other group would take the opportunity to run out and report back to the base.
At this time, a middle-aged man with unshaven beard on the right pulled the young extraordinary person over again and changed places with him.
"Xiao Lu, you are still young. There is still a long way to go to become a transcendent in the future. You are the most talented among us. You cannot stay. Go back to the base and help me take care of my daughter. I will stay."
The man said very decisively,
Suddenly, the people who were just standing on the right started talking.
"I'll stay here. My mother-in-law is in the medical team. She can take care of herself. My brother who is alive will send me a message telling her to stay well in the army and marry the right person when she meets one."
"Old Qiang, don't act like a hero here, go back! I'm older than you, I'll stay!"
"I"
Suddenly everyone in this small factory started to make a noise.
Xiang Shi slapped the iron plate next to him and shouted: "That's enough! Do you still take me as a commander seriously? Everyone obeys the order and follows the initial distribution! The people on the left stay, and the people on the right retreat immediately. Xiao Lu You go to the right!"
Xiao Lu wanted to say something else, but was stopped by Xiang Shi's stern eyes. The captain's majesty came into play at this moment. No one dared to make any noise anymore, because everyone knew that time waits for no one, and obeying orders is their best choice.
"The zombie tide is coming soon. It's too late to retreat now, otherwise half of us won't be able to survive. Xiao Lu, you are the strongest. I appoint you as the acting captain to lead our 60 brothers to survive. Can you do it when you return to the base!?"
Xiao Lu saluted, tears streaming down his face: "Yes, sir!"
Xiao Lu and other 61 people quickly evacuated from the back door. Everyone's eyes were red and filled with tears, because their lives were bought by the lives of 59 other brothers.
They knew they had to leave quickly without any nostalgia, otherwise the opportunity the captain fought for for them would not exist.
They must work harder to survive to be worthy of the 59 teammates behind them.
"Roar!!!"
As soon as Xiao Lu and the others walked out of the factory from the back door, the roars of zombies could be heard outside. There was a "swishing" sound on the roof, and zombies were scratching the roof.
"Bang bang bang!"
The front door is also being pounded, and soon they will be besieged by a wave of corpses.
Xiang Shi looked at the extraordinary people who stayed behind and said, "Brothers, I'm sorry that I gave them a chance to live. If you blame me, when you get to hell, you will fry me and make amends to you!"
Everyone looked at Xiang Shi with bright eyes, full of respect and passion, without any complaint.
"Boss, you have saved my life twice since the day I followed you. I have lived for so many more years. It's time for me to do something for everyone!"
"Remember when we had dinner last time, we said that if we are at the end of our rope, we must give priority to protecting brothers with families. Boss, you did it. I am very happy to die here with you."
"Oh, the little beauty in the infirmary is so damn pretty. I originally planned to confess my love to him after this mission, maybe in the next life."
Everyone firmly accepted this result because they are the patron saints of this country.
At the critical moment, no one was left behind!
"Is there any cigarette?"
A middle-aged extraordinary man with scars on his face suddenly spoke.
"have!"
Xiang Shi took out a box of crumpled Yunyan from his pocket.
"I also have a box, but I haven't had a chance to smoke it yet."
Another person took out a box of Changbaishan,
"I have a box hidden here too."
Several people gathered together 4 boxes of cigarettes.
The middle-aged extraordinary man with a scar said: "Come on, let's take one each."
Regardless of whether they smoke or not, each of the 59 people gets a cigarette.
The fire superpower snapped his fingers and lit cigarettes for everyone.
A trace of white mist floated up from the 59 cigarettes.
At this time, the door outside had been broken, and there was a "bang"!
Zombies rush in.
They don't even have time for a cigarette,
"Hey~~"
Xiang Shi took a deep breath and sucked the cigarette in his hand directly from the beginning to the filter.
He raised his head and blew out a mouthful of thick white mist, shouting loudly:
"Cool!"
Everyone imitated him and puffed the cigarette to the end, exhaling thick smoke.
Xiang Shi drew out his steel sword: "Brothers, break out! Fight these zombies! The longer we hold on, the greater the chance that other brothers will escape. Burn!"
The 59 people charged forward with their own weapons, shouting in unison:
"For dragnet!"
"For China!"
"kill!"
The door of the small factory building has been knocked open by zombies.
Leading the charge are 10 M2 zombies. They have blue hair, bulging eyes, and a pair of extremely thick long legs. Their hands and soles are covered with blue mucus, allowing them to attack the wall. Climb.
They sprinted extremely fast, rushing over like ten 200-mph sports cars.
These 10 second-level zombies are difficult to deal with.
Xiang Shi and his team are only second-level extraordinary beings at most, with only 8 people. Most of them are first-level advanced extraordinary beings artificially created by taking the two potions of Tianluo Diwang.
Second-level extraordinary beings have no advantage against second-level zombies. Only by combining multiple second-level extraordinary beings can they kill a second-level zombie. If they fight alone, they can easily be killed by zombies.
Not to mention that they are still at a disadvantage in terms of the number of second-level transcendent beings.
This is also the reason why they were hunted down and 80 brothers died along the way. The second-level evolved zombies were too many and too strong for them.
"Fight with your life! We must keep all 10 of them here!"
These extremely fast M2 zombies are the main force in pursuit. If they are left here, the escaping teammates will have another glimmer of hope.
At this time, Xiang Shi glanced at the roof, and the sound of biting disappeared.
‘Logically speaking, the Y2 zombies should be up there preparing to double-team us. Are they chasing Xiao Lu and the others? ’
This question popped up in Xiang Shi's mind,
But the zombies were already approaching, and he didn't have time to think too much. He just hoped that Xiao Lu and the others would have better luck and not be easily overtaken by those flying zombies.
"Bang bang bang!"
Everyone is at war with the M2 zombies. They have the numerical advantage. The first round of superpower burst will force 10 M2 zombies back. One of the M2 zombies even had an arm cut off by Xiang Shi.
"Um"
The middle-aged transcendent with scars in the team groaned, clutching his stomach and fell to the side.
Xiang Shi looked back and found that his stomach had been penetrated by the sharp claws of the M2 zombie, and the tattered Craftsman's Soul equipment on his body had completely lost its durability and fell off.
In the previous pursuit battle, the zombies caused multiple damage to the craftsman equipment on them, and there was no blood supply, and the durability was reduced to the minimum.
This time, the middle-aged man could not survive the head-on confrontation.
"Leave me alone and keep fighting!"
The middle-aged extraordinary person knew that he was dead because he was still a first-level advanced extraordinary person and had not been promoted to a second-level extraordinary person.
There is no cure for the zombie virus.
It's not worth wasting his teammates' time on him. It's better to use this time to kill more zombies. He tore off the autumn clothes inside the armor and tied them around the wound. He stood up again with bleeding. He wanted to use the last time to inflict some damage on the zombies. He would not hesitate to hurt it, even if he hugged it with his own body!
"Old Liu!"
The team members know what he is going to do, but no one can stop him, because if he stays here, he is destined to die. Instead of lying there and being eaten by zombies, it is better for Lao Liu to die gloriously in the battle with zombies. This is Lao Liu. Glory!
"Bang bang bang!"
The walls of the small factory were broken through one after another, and more zombies poured in, L2, T2, S2, etc.
Everyone had a look of determination in their eyes, and their superpowers were aroused to the extreme.
"Fight!"
The next second, the roof suddenly collapsed!
"Rumble--"
Countless pieces of iron, lime, and steel bars fell down, blocking the zombies that were supposed to rush in. Their offensive slowed down.
In the area above everyone's heads, the roof did not collapse.
Through the hole in the roof that was punched through, we could see multiple extraordinary beings floating in the air with electric jetpacks on their backs. They all held a black and red energy gun in their hands, which was already full of energy.
The man above shouted: "Brothers below, move back, we are going to fire!"
There is support!
Xiang Shi hurriedly took his men and retreated 10 meters.
The dense red cannonballs in the sky were shot down!
"Boom boom boom!!!"
The laser cannon exploded in the pile of zombies in front of Xiang Shi and the others.
All the zombies in the factory were knocked over by this huge energy.
The air was filled with the smell of zombies' flesh and blood, and deep pits were blasted out on the ground. The small factory building, which was not strong enough, was even worse. Half of it had collapsed.
"Follow us."
The people above landed in the factory building, and without any explanation, they picked up one of them and flew away, quickly leaving here.
Xiang Shi and the others did not resist. They were both humans. No matter where the other party came from, it would be better than being eaten by zombies.
"Where are you from?"
As an old transcendent in Jinzhou City, Xiang Shi is very familiar with the official troops and people in the civilian gathering places here. The equipment and faces of these people are very unfamiliar, and they definitely do not belong to any force in Jinzhou City.
"Home No. 1."
