Chapter 684

"But just letting it stay behind us like this..."

"Captain Shen!"

Just as everyone was feeling a headache and had no solution, a trembling, excited voice came from not far away.

Looking in the direction of the voice, three disheveled people appeared on the ruins! "Bullfrog! Da Chongzi, Mantou!" Shen Linrui waved his hand and said excitedly: "You guys are fast, come, come down quickly."

"Squeak, squeak!"

Lightning poked its head out of Shen Linrui's pocket and waved its little claws vigorously. It also recognized the three who had arrived, considering it a greeting.

Because they had changed their position, Bullfrog and the others were much closer, and it was much faster to rush over.

Bullfrog and the other two walked down from the ruins, looking as miserable as defeated soldiers. Finally seeing familiar faces, they collapsed to the ground with a thud, their emotions breaking down as they shed tears.

"Captain Shen, it was scary, too scary. That explosion, it was terrible. At that time we..."

Without waiting for Shen Linrui to ask, Bullfrog started talking about their encounter yesterday evening on his own.

The reconnaissance team was organized in groups of five. The mission of Bullfrog's team was to scout the movements of the massive zombie horde and then harass them to delay their arrival in the Shanhai District, buying time for Shen Linrui and the others to seek reinforcements.

The five-person team was divided into two squads, each performing different tasks. Bullfrog and the other two were driving toward the northwest of the zombie horde, while Pidan and Da Chongzi were setting traps on the wilderness in the southeast. As a result, before the traps were even set up, a huge change occurred.

They didn't even hear the sound of the explosion; a shockwave faster than the speed of sound swept across. On the unprotected wilderness, Pidan and Sanmu were taken away by the shockwave on the spot, and no one knew where their bodies went...

And the three who were driving were quite lucky. The car rolled several times and flipped into a ditch by the side of the road. They suffered quite a bit, but successfully escaped a disaster! When the dust settled, the three of them crawled out of the car and were completely stunned.

"The camp is gone, all the brothers are gone. Why did this happen? Captain Shen, do you know why?"

The man called Mantou had a bit of baby fat on his face. Although he looked dirty, his skin tone was relatively fair, which was probably the origin of his nickname. He asked the reason while crying.

"Alright, alright, let's talk about this when we have time. Come, get up, let me introduce you to a few friends first. These brothers are from the Tianmayu Yama Legion, let's meet!"

Shen Linrui was the captain of the reconnaissance team, and Bullfrog was just the captain of a small squad. The two were exactly superior and subordinate.

The three had noticed the strange faces long ago, but their emotions were too agitated before, so they didn't pay attention. After hearing the introduction, they stood up one after another, wiped away their tears, and nodded, considering it a greeting.

Hong Laosi hadn't joined Tianmayu, but Shen Linrui counted him in the team directly. Everyone didn't care about these small issues.

"The incident happened too suddenly, no one wanted this. Three brothers, meeting is fate, I think... Little Wu, what's the situation with Zero-Zero-Four?"

"Same as before, motionless."

Duan Wuhu nodded, then took out cigarettes and walked toward Bullfrog and the other two, saying: "Three brothers, to tell you the truth, we came out this time mainly to investigate the zombie horde coming from Huludao City. Can you tell us in detail?"

Since Zero-Zero-Four wasn't moving, they would just ask in detail here.

The three didn't take the cigarettes and all looked at Shen Linrui.

"These brothers are from the Tianmayu Yama Legion. The current squad is called 'Rush to the Mountains and Seas'. They not only came to investigate the zombie horde but also assisted us along the way to investigate the explosion. They are trustworthy good brothers!"

Shen Linrui further introduced 'Rush to the Mountains and Seas' to Bullfrog and the others.

Getting the answer, the three took the cigarettes from Duan Wuhu, and then Bullfrog said: "We have no idea why the zombie horde is coming toward the Shanhai District. We tried many times to make them change their route, but all failed. I didn't expect the shockwave after the explosion to do it."

The members of 'Rush to the Mountains and Seas' shook their heads secretly. A venom zombie exploded directly, so what else was there to say? Moreover, the shockwave was only an intuitive level of influence. The bigger reason might be that hundreds of people in the Dragon Head Camp evaporated directly, and the locked magnetic field disappeared...

As for why they were walking toward the northwest, there was only one answer: the largest gathering place of humans closest to the zombie horde was Tianmayu!

"I seriously suspect that this zombie horde is now moving toward our camp. Is there any way to stop it?"

Duan Wuhu asked with a frown.

"If the zombie horde moves in a straight line to Tianmayu, the biggest difficulty in front of them is crossing the Ancestral Mountain. There will be a smaller mountain peak behind it, and finally, they have to cross Tianma Mountain... Can they really walk there?"

The middle-aged man called Da Chongzi, who hadn't spoken before, spoke up. Although it was one hundred and thirty kilometers from Huludao City to the Shanhai District, it was a flat coastal road, and the zombie horde moved without any obstruction. But if they were moving from the detour point to Tianmayu, besides a small plain in the middle, there were three big mountains blocking the way...

"This brother, you know the terrain of Qincheng like the back of your hand, impressive!"

Duan Wuhu praised.

"Old Li used to be in geological exploration..." Shen Linrui introduced.

Li Pingchong nodded and said: "Occupational disease, I just know the terrain relatively well."

"With the obstruction of big mountains, the zombie horde will either continue to detour, or climb the mountain, or be diverted. Will it cause large-scale attrition due to cliffs and precipices?"

Duan Wuhu summarized some problems.

Lu Yubo shook his head and said to Duan Wuhu: "Teacher Duan, I think the possibility of a detour is the greatest. We must solve this threat!"

"That's right." Wu Lue also nodded: "The mountain can only act as a buffer. If the zombie horde has locked onto Tianmayu, it's only a matter of time before they get to us!"

The people from the Dragon Head Camp weren't surprised by the 'locking onto' thing. Only Hong Laosi had doubts in his eyes, but he didn't ask, just listened quietly.

"Actually, I think the zombie horde is still so far away, why not just set a fire and burn them!"

【In the error-free version!】

Park Canyong suggested.

Swish.

Everyone's eyes focused on Park Canyong's face.

"Little brother, are you okay? Can't you see the huge pit in your camp? You still dare to set a fire. Do you think the mountain is resistant to explosions?"

Zhang Su had a strange expression on his face, feeling that this person was truly reckless.

"Four or five hundred thousand zombies, heaven knows what kind of monsters are in there. What if there are mutated zombies capable of causing even greater explosive power? Don't you want to live?"

Lu Yubo felt a burst of irritation. Today, he only encountered things that made him feel powerless.

"Actually, it might not be impossible. Even a real nuclear explosion wouldn't do much to a big mountain. We can set up a delayed ignition device and then use the mountain to block it. The safety factor is still very high."

Li Pingchong analyzed reasonably.

The members of 'Rush to the Mountains and Seas' looked at the remnants of the Dragon Head Camp speechlessly. So your camp was destined to have an accident. Not only were there lunatics who liked to set fires to burn zombies for fun, but even normal people liked to study using fire to deal with zombies...

"Unless it's a last resort, absolutely do not use fire..." Duan Wuhu waved his hand.

"Then... four or five hundred thousand zombies, we can't kill them one by one, right?"

Fan Donglu spread his hands sullenly. He took it for granted that his fate was tied to Tianmayu. His own camp was gone, so he had to find a place to live again, and this zombie horde had to be solved somehow.

"The camp can organize more than two hundred combat personnel. One person has to solve more than two thousand zombies? Super Saiyan, haha..."

Zhang Su was still good at this kind of simple arithmetic. After calculating the answer, he laughed.

Wu Lue didn't speak. He knew there was a way to solve it, and that was the Ascension Primordial Liquid. The explosion of this substance was different in nature from fire.

According to current scientific understanding, all solid matter within the range covered by the purple bubbles directly turned from solid to gas. If one used a more mysterious explanation, it was that they were sent directly to a parallel universe or something...

No one knew exactly how, but anyway, no residue was left, not even the process of reacting. It was clean, hygienic, and very neat.

It's just that using Ascension Primordial Liquid to deal with five hundred thousand zombies...

He didn't know if the camp's reserves were enough.
