Chapter 420: The Survivors' Alliance's Big Killer
"If I win a narrow victory, guess what will happen?"
As Zhang Su spoke, he walked under the light. With the overhead light shining down, his eyes sank into the darkness.
"You will slaughter everyone..."
Hearing Zhang Su's words, combined with the aura he exuded, the eerie tone, and the logical assumption, Wu Baokang couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva. *Ruthless, too ruthless. Even more ruthless than Liao Youzhi. *
The Survivors' Alliance's growth step by step was by no means smooth. There had been many annexations in the process, but Liao Youzhi had never launched extermination methods. Although some regulations were overbearing and harsh, they ultimately left a way to live and wouldn't kill everyone.
Didn't Wu Baokang have anyone he cared about?
Of course not.
He had a woman he was seeing, and they had agreed to survive this winter and prepare to have children as soon as the ice melted. There was also a prerequisite: the Survivors' Alliance was getting better and better, and the medical conditions were becoming more perfect.
Having lived a life of licking blood from the edge of a knife and experiencing the darkness of life in prison, the zombie apocalypse didn't make Wu Baokang decadent; instead, he felt it was a new world tailored for him. Even his attitude toward life became positive. In the past, he only vented his physiological needs, but now he really began to enjoy tenderness and even fantasized about passing on the family line.
Welcoming death in darkness and pain was not terrible; what was terrible was falling into the abyss again after walking out of the darkness and bathing in the light! Thinking of this, the belief in Wu Baokang's heart wavered, and he squeezed two words out of his dry throat: "Fire!"
"What fire? Tell me in detail!"
Zhang Su's eyebrows twitched. He didn't know where Wu Baokang's weakness was and was just testing him, but he didn't expect to catch a blind cat with a dead mouse—the other party actually loosened up, but what he said was too general.
"You have to promise me two things, and I'll tell you all the secrets I know about the Survivors' Alliance!"
Wu Baokang suddenly sat up straight, looking at Zhang Su with glowing eyes.
"I say, you don't look very good, but you think quite beautifully. You want me to promise you two things? Tell me first!"
Zhang Su didn't refuse outright. Having talked to this point, if he were to push back, he might never be able to pry the other party's mouth open again.
"After I finish talking, you have to let me go, then give me a car, and enough supplies for me to eat and drink for a month!"
Wu Baokang said dully. He didn't mention weapons, knowing it would be useless to ask; the other party definitely wouldn't give them.
"Let you go, a car, supplies—that's three things." Zhang Su counted on his fingers and continued: "Three things are not impossible, it just depends on whether the information you provide is weighty enough. But one thing is certain: as long as you are willing to cooperate, I definitely won't take your life!"
"I discovered that zombie back then!"
Wu Baokang began to recount with a look of memory in his eyes: "That zombie has fire characteristics, its whole body emits a scorching aura, and its mouth can spray flames. The temperature is particularly high, and it can melt through car door panels. The longest spraying distance was thirty meters. If a person is sprayed, they won't last three seconds. Anyway, if you touch it, you're basically dead!"
Only a very small number of people participated in the testing of the fire zombie, and he was one of them.
Zhang Su's expression tightened. Since the outbreak of the disaster, fire could restrain all zombies. Although fire could temporarily increase the combat effectiveness of zombies, it would also cost them their lives. The fire-breathing zombie was good—it was actually immune to fire?
If Wu Baokang's situation was true, if the fire-breathing zombie was played well, as long as it was caught off guard, not to mention wiping out Tianmayu, half-wiping it out would be no problem at all. It was absolutely a big killer! "Usually, this zombie is locked in Liao Youzhi's mansion, using the temperature emitted by the zombie's body to keep warm. The effect is much better than heating. Outside it's minus twenty or thirty degrees, inside the room it's plus thirty degrees. Occasionally, windows have to be opened for ventilation. An entire Le-Gou Shopping Mall can enjoy the heat supply, but the lower the floor, the worse the effect. I usually live on the fourth floor, and I only cover myself with a blanket when I sleep at night."
Wu Baokang continued.
Zhang Su couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. *Isn't this just a pure big fire stove? * So he said: "Your Survivors' Alliance has this kind of zombie, so you should have achieved energy freedom, right?"
Wu Baokang knew what Zhang Su meant. He was burly but not illiterate, and his knowledge reserve in all aspects was definitely enough. He frowned and said: "You want to say burning water to generate electricity, right? I also thought that after figuring out the zombie's ability, the next step would be to consider thermal power generation. As a result, Liao Youzhi didn't mention the fire zombie again later...
He purely used it for heating, but I know there are scientific researchers studying it. I guess it should only be enabled in a crisis. If Liao Youzhi prepares to attack Tianmayu, it is very likely that he will bring the fire-breathing zombie!"
Zhang Su nodded. Wu Baokang's inference was very reasonable. Such a big treasure could not only be used for heating. Using it as a weapon was sooner or later. It was just unclear how far the development had gone.
"Good, the fire zombie is indeed very powerful. Then how does Liao Youzhi control it, and what is its weakness?" Zhang Su continued to ask.
Wu Baokang narrowed his eyes and thought for a while, then shook his head with some doubt: "I'm not very clear. I only remember that it sprays fire when it sees people, and it is very irritable. I don't know anything else, because I didn't have a chance to contact it later."
This answer made both of them dry.
If Zhang Su hadn't asked, Wu Baokang would have forgotten the existence of the fire zombie. Only when he returned to the room to sleep and enjoyed the warmth would he think that there was still such a monster upstairs. As for how to control it, he didn't investigate, and the weakness was even less clear.
"You might need to explore it yourself."
Before Zhang Su could speak, Wu Baokang gave him an idea first.
"I explore... If it were so easy to explore, why would I need you to say anything? Think quickly, is there any relevant clue to provide!"
Zhang Su didn't know whether the other party's words were true or false, but he felt that since Wu Baokang had already said so much, it seemed unnecessary to continue to hide it.
Wu Baokang wanted to scratch his head, but unfortunately his hands were tied, which was very inconvenient. He rubbed against the wall, frowned impatiently, and said: "I really don't understand the fire zombie. That is Liao Youzhi's big treasure. Only he knows the specific situation! But I can tell you another thing, guaranteed to be more damn explosive than the fire zombie. After hearing it, you have to let me go!"
Zhang Su raised his eyebrows. Judging from the other party's description, the fire zombie's ability was already quite explosive. More explosive than that?
It seemed that not only did he hide the modified zombie Zero-Zero-Three and the venom stock solution, but the Survivors' Alliance also had many good things! Survivor camps that could develop might not all have big killers, but forces that possessed big killers would definitely be able to gradually grow stronger.
"Say it! I'll listen first before making a judgment. Anyway, the news about the fire zombie is very reluctant, and the information is too little!"
Zhang Su didn't promise the other party, but urged Wu Baokang to speak.
"The Survivors' Alliance's scientific team has concocted a colorless and odorless powder. Once inhaled, it can cause infection, and there is a high probability of turning into a zombie!"
Wu Baokang said a piece of heavy news very simply.
Hearing this, Zhang Su's eyes brightened and he was instantly shocked. A powder that turns people into zombies—isn't this a biochemical weapon? Seeing Zhang Su's shocked expression, Wu Baokang felt a little steady in his heart, thinking that this news was weighty enough, but as soon as the other party opened his mouth, he became anxious.
"Are you damn making up some baseless crap to lie to me just to let me let you go?"
Zhang Su calmed down from his initial shock and re-examined Wu Baokang's words.
"Damn, I didn't!"
Wu Baokang was also anxious. He sat up straight and argued vigorously: "Very, very few people know about this. When Dr. Tang handed the zombie powder to Liao Youzhi, only I was by his side. I can guarantee that only three people know, and you are the fourth!"
"Have you seen that thing turn people into zombies with your own eyes?"
Zhang Su asked.
Wu Baokang shook his head, then nodded again: "I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but I know one thing! Liao Youzhi would lock people who didn't obey the Survivors' Alliance in several shops in Taiyangcheng. One night, two people in a shop locked with five people suddenly turned into zombies and bit the other three to death!
This happened a few days after Liao Youzhi got the powder. Guess if there is any connection?"
Zhang Su stopped talking. If Wu Baokang wasn't lying, then the fact that Liao Youzhi held a biochemical weapon was true. This was too terrible.
Before the disaster, there was a global convention prohibiting biochemical weapons, and no one dared to defy the world. But now there was no restraint at all. A sprinkle in the wind could turn people into zombies. This was too terrible!
Fu Weijun and Xie Yanshan were trying to develop a modified liquid to block zombie transformation, but the Survivors' Alliance had already taken a step forward to develop a biochemical weapon that turns people into zombies. The situation was very bad.
