It's been a day of credit, but the zombies still have to be killed after all.
Liu Fangzhou did mental work for himself all day, and finally walked up to Shen Shi'an during his lunch break the next day: "Brother Shen, I'm ready."
Shen Shi'an asked, "How many zombies are there?"
"Six, two in the east, four in the north, one of them is a mutant zombie, and the rest are ordinary zombies."
It's okay, not too difficult for a novice. After confirming that he was wearing long-sleeved trousers, gloves and a mask, Shen Shi'an handed him a stabbing stick: "Take this as your scalpel, aim at the eye sockets and the back of the neck, where there is no bone blocking, soft and easy to attack Break through. If you miss a hit, run quickly, don't let the zombies approach you, and don't let the zombies surround you."
Liu Fangzhou clenched the stabbing stick tightly, sweating in his palm: "... hey."
Seeing the pale face, Chen Nan wanted to laugh but couldn't bear it: If Jiamu was still alive, he might be like this when facing zombies. Ask Shen Shi'an: "Brother Shen, how about I go with him?"
Shen Shi'an shook his head: "Now that there are enough crystal nuclei, your most important task is to exercise your abilities. The sooner you can transform them into combat power, the better." Turning to look at the child who was licking the lollipop: "I'll leave it to you to search for it." How about a mission?"
Before Shen Xun answered, Liu Fangzhou didn't shake his legs or sweat, and immediately became excited: "Brother Xun, will you go with me? That's great!"
"He won't kill zombies for you, nor will he attract zombies' attention." Shen Shi'an poured a ladle of cold water, then squatted down and looked at the child: "Just make sure he doesn't come back as a zombie."
Shen Xun rolled his eyes: "Can I order food at noon?"
Shen Shi'an: "... don't eat sweet potatoes today, and limit it to eight dishes."
Five minutes later, Shen Xun walked in front with a lollipop in his mouth, and Liu Fangzhou followed suit: "Brother Xun, slow down, I will remove a stone for you, are you thirsty, do you want some water? The knife looks a bit heavy and I want you to help me... Fuck, it's so heavy, forget it when I didn't say it... "
The two of them came back earlier than Shen Shi'an expected. Shen Xun jumped up and down in high spirits, and ran over holding two spars: "An'an, here you are!"
The crystal nuclei have obviously washed through the water, and they are shiny and clean. Shen Shi'an counted thirteen, and turned to look at Liu Fangzhou who was far behind: "Isn't there only one mutant zombie?"
Liu Fangzhou was out of breath. He sat down on the ground as soon as he stopped. His body was covered in dust. He looked quite embarrassed, but his expression was very excited: "There is indeed only one within a thousand meters. Let's go east again." After walking for a certain distance, I found a gas station nearby, surrounded by a group of zombies, a total of 142, wandering densely among the abandoned vehicles, it looks scary! Didn’t you see it, I’m looking for a goth! , rushed up, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, it was like chopping melons and vegetables, and it was as if the group of zombies couldn't see him!"
Of the 142 zombies, thirteen mutated. It seems that outside of Lin'an County, the ratio of mutated zombies is still around one-tenth. I just don't know what's going on in the densely populated cities. Shen Shi'an thought about it, and praised the child: "Xunxun is awesome." Then he looked at Liu Fangzhou: "Where's yours?"
"Ah, here! I picked it out from the zombie's head with my own hands! It has been washed according to Brother Xun's instructions!" Liu Fangzhou handed over the crystal core tightly held in his palm, "That mutant zombie is so fast, I almost I was caught up by it. Fortunately, there was a convenience store next to the gas station. At a critical moment, I was quick to use my wits and purposely lured the zombies around the convenience store. When it couldn't see me but I could sense it around the corner, I suddenly turned around and killed it. It was caught off guard, and poked at the white spot in the gray mass, hehehe, right in the eye socket."
After finishing speaking, his chin was raised high, and his eyes were shining brightly, looking at Shen Shi'an.
It took Shen Shi'an two seconds to realize that he meant to praise him, and raised his hand to pat him on the shoulder: "...you are also great." Then put away the crystal nucleus: "Let's eat."
Liu Fangzhou's cheeks flushed with excitement, Shen Xun kicked him on the leg calmly. Just as the boy was about to shout, he was glared at by the child, and he swallowed it back aggrieved.
After eating and drinking, Shen Shi'an took out a map to check the route. Chen Nan was holding a flower pot and concentrated on promoting the growth of grass seeds. After walking around, he discovered a problem that Chen Nan hadn't noticed all along. His heart felt as if it had been scratched by a cat's paw for a long time, and he finally couldn't help it. He boldly went to Shen Xun's side: "Brother Xun, let me ask you something. Do you have any ability to make zombies ignore your existence?"
Shen Xun ignored him with a strawberry in his mouth.
Liu Fangzhou didn't mind either. He thought to himself: Shen Xun's most obvious ability must be extraordinary power. If his guess is correct, he can also block the attention of zombies, "Brother Xun, don't you have it?" Two abilities?"
Shen Xun baji baji finished eating the strawberries, but still ignored him.
Liu Fangzhou continued to ponder: No, brother Xun can also tell him to "tell the truth when facing An An", "don't ask any questions to An An" and "never tell others what An An said", so to speak, " Brother Xun, are you a three-line power?!"
Shen Xun thought he was annoying, bared his teeth and growled at him.
Liu Fangzhou's face turned pale, he clutched his chest and immediately withdrew far away: "Don't ask, don't ask, don't ask, don't ask."
Tsk, brother Xun is really a mysterious man.
In the next few days, in addition to urging Liu Fangzhou to confront the zombies head-on and improve his courage and combat experience, Shen Shi'an will also teach Chen Nan to drive on his agenda: "In this way, we can take turns driving in the future. In case of emergency, I need you to drive the car away when necessary."
Chen Nan is not hypocritical. Firstly, taking turns to drive can reduce the burden on Brother Shen. Second, he is very clear that he and Liu Fangzhou are the weakest in the current team. When encountering a fierce battle, he may only be able to hold back. Sometimes he must save himself first. Brother Shen has no worries. Besides, who wouldn't want to drive such a majestic off-road vehicle!
Liu Fangzhou was extremely envious: "Brother Shen, I want to learn too!"
Shen Shi'an refused: "You are not qualified enough." In other words, the other party has not fully won his trust.
The young man lowered his face and squatted on the ground to pull weeds.
Shen Xun immediately raised his hand: "An An, I want to learn too!"
Shen Shi'an also refused: "You are not tall enough."
The child slumped, turned around and stepped on Liu Fangzhou's foot.
Probably because boys have a natural sympathy for machinery, and in the last days, there is no need to obey any traffic rules. Chen Nan got started very quickly, and after a week, he could intermittently replace Shen Shi'an to drive. With Liu Fangzhou's abilities, the journey was smooth and peaceful. Occasionally, when driving on an empty provincial road, the sun rolled over the tip of the grass, and the smoky wind of early summer blew in front of me. Any virus outbreak or zombie rampage in a trance seemed to be an illusion. , the world is as usual and the years are quiet, they are just going on an ordinary road trip.
Shen Shi'an sat on the back seat, looked away for a long time and then looked away from the window. Because Chen Nan was driving, Shen Xun drove Liu Fangzhou to the co-pilot, and sat next to Shen Shi'an next to him, looking up at him: "An'an, are you worried?"
Shen Shi'an rubbed the child's head, the fluffy hair was so thin and soft that itched his palms, and even the boredom in his chest dissipated a lot. Looking into those dark green eyes, she didn't lie: "Well, a little bit."
Liu Fangzhou's ability is a good thing, it can ensure that they can travel unimpeded all the way and stay away from the zombies. But the farther away from the zombie group, the farther away from the urban area, from the survivors, and from the safety base. Since he was separated from Tian Yi's family at the survivor base in Dongming County, he has not been in contact with the crowd for more than a month. However, the lack of information exchange made him ignorant of the changes in the end-time disaster situation in the entire Hua Kingdom within this month.
For Shen Shi'an, information is one of the most important things at any time. With sufficient information, he can make reasonable guesses and effective judgments, and then make the best choice for the next step. After the outbreak of the virus, the communication network collapsed. If you want to get information, you can only contact the crowd, but there is still a "wanted warrant" on him.
Such a state of being out of touch with the community and isolated from information made him increasingly restless, and faintly worried: What if the information he missed happened to be able to determine life and death
With each passing day, there were more and more things he wanted to know urgently: How far have the zombies in other places evolved in so many days? What is the current number of survivors in the entire Hua Kingdom? How high is the proportion of supernatural beings? Where is the research on the zombie virus? Has a virus vaccine been developed
Most importantly, what is the situation of Mr. Gu
If I can talk to Mr. Gu on the phone again, many problems can be solved easily.
But under the current circumstances, I am afraid that only the army in the safe base still maintains the ability to communicate remotely.
So, risk reaching out to a secure base
He can't decide this issue alone, so that night, the four of them had their first team meeting around the campfire.
Shen Shi'an briefly introduced the situation of being "wanted": "... I have probably guessed who is behind the scenes, and I can be sure of one thing: unless I get the exact news of my death, the other party will not let it go. "
"Damn it," Liu Fangzhou was stunned for a long time after hearing this, his cheeks glowing with fire flushed with excitement: "The martial arts are powerful and you are hunted down by people, Brother Shen, you are the chosen one. Ah! The protagonist’s halo is bright and blind! According to the general routine, not only will you not die, but you will become stronger and stronger, and eventually you will achieve a vigorous career. It can't be any worse!"
No, he must hug Brother Shen's thigh tightly!
Shen Shi'an was silent, and brought the topic back: "As for whether we should contact the safe base, my opinion tends to be yes. First of all, we have too little information. Currently, it is equivalent to being isolated from the world, blindfolded and moving forward. In case of any unexpected situation, encountering an opponent more difficult than a supernatural zombie, it is impossible to be as lucky as Lin'an County every time. Secondly, my wanted list should only contain basic information, but no specific images That is to say, the person responsible for arresting me does not know what I look like, and the possibility of sneaking into the base after pretending to be more than 80% is more than 80%. Besides, I have left City H for more than two months. , it is also unlikely to issue orders or commissions to the garrisons of all security bases in the country. Even if she wants to do this, the family behind her will not agree. Therefore, the most likely to be wanted for me is only distributed around province a where city h is located. The base further north probably doesn’t even know that there is a person named Shen Shi’an. After comprehensive consideration, the advantages of entering a safe base to obtain information will outweigh the disadvantages.”
After a pause, he added: "Ten thousand steps back, the other party's target is only me, and I don't even know the existence of Xunxun. As long as you are not affected, I have the confidence to break out alone." If the situation really deteriorates out of control, he also has room to be the biggest trump card.
Shen Xun hugged his arm: "An'an and I are still here! I will eat anyone who dares to bully you!"
Shen Shi'an rubbed his head with a smile, and Liu Fangzhou curled up into a ball and shook.
Chen Nan thought for a moment: "I agree with Brother Shen. The closer you are to the capital, the more zombies there will be. Sooner or later, there will be a bad battle to be fought. The more information you know, the better. Only by knowing your enemy and yourself can you win a hundred battles."
Shen Shi'an turned to Liu Fangzhou, "What do you think?"
"Of course we should go! If the vaccine has been developed and the virus can be brought under control soon, then we don't have to rush to kill zombies anymore!" Knowing what kind of supernatural beings you will encounter, maybe with luck, you can catch an autopsy
Shen Xun only listened to Shen Shi'an, so the four of them reached an agreement: go to the next survivor base, but for safety reasons, the scale of the base should not be too large, the number of supernatural beings should not be too many, and the number of troops stationed should preferably be within 2,000.
According to this goal, Shen Shi'an adjusted his forward route. Two days later in the morning, when the off-road vehicle approached the outskirts of a medium-sized city, Liu Fangzhou suddenly shouted: "Brother Shen, stop the car, there is a crowd gathering in the northwest!"
Shen Shi'an parked the car on the side of the road, "How many people?"
"Three thousand six hundred and forty-three, there are about one hundred and fifty people with supernatural powers."
"perhaps?"
Liu Fangzhou scratched his head: "You also know that I can only sense all kinds of light clusters. I am sure that ordinary survivors are white lights, but I can't be sure if they must be supernatural beings if they are not white lights. Anyway, all kinds of colorful lights There are a total of one hundred and fifty-seven regiments."
Shen Shi'an thought for a while, and asked Chen Nan to sit in the driver's seat: "I'll go over and have a look. I expect to be back within two hours. You guys wait here. If you encounter any special circumstances during the period, drive the car away first. I will chase after you." went up."
Before Shen Xun could speak, he said to him again: "Xun Xun, I want to give you an important task: Can you help me watch the two of them?"
Gou Zijing, who wanted to go with him, immediately puffed up his chest: "Yes!"
Shen Shi'an found a lot of good things in the outdoor equipment store in the shopping mall, including several high-end telescopes, which just came in handy at this time.
Because he was worried about being discovered by the vigilant garrison, he did not get too close. He found the highest camphor tree on the side of the road and climbed up. He pointed the telescope lens at the direction Liu Fangzhou sensed:
According to the gleaming inscriptions on the stele, it was a cigarette factory of a tobacco company, covering a very large area, and it is estimated that it would not be a problem to accommodate 10,000 people. The building is magnificent, filled with the wealth and power of state-owned enterprises, and it is surrounded by a wall more than four meters high.
No matter how you look at it, this is an excellent safe haven.
The gate of the tobacco factory was closed, leaving only a narrow passage near the guard room for one person to enter and exit. Four soldiers guarded the passage with guns. Shen Shi'an observed for an hour and a half, and saw a total of three large military trucks coming in and out, two driving towards the urban area, and one driving back from the urban area, and a total of 16 people got off the truck and lined up to enter the passage.
Obviously, the garrison here is still searching for survivors in the city.
The number of garrison troops cannot be determined, but since the total number is only over 3,000, I am afraid it will not exceed 2,000 at most.
This safe base was much smaller than he expected. It didn't seem like a special garrison was established, but more like a temporary stronghold for a certain battalion. Perhaps the main task is to collect supplies, and then go to the general base to meet up
In any case, it is a target they can try to reach.
Jumping down from the tree, Shen Shi'an returned to the stop of the off-road vehicle nimbly and quickly, and briefly introduced the observed situation to the other three.
Half an hour later, the off-road vehicle was put into the space, along with Shen Xun's Tang Dao and the head of Chen Nan's younger brother, Chen Jiamu.
Shen Shi'an was carrying a long sword, Chen Nan and Liu Fangzhou were holding sticks, and each of the three carried a bulging mountaineering bag. The materials in the backpack were carefully selected, and no flaws would be revealed even if they were dug out for inspection. Shen Shi'an held the child in his arms, and the group walked to the entrance of the tobacco factory.
Four soldiers stopped them and motioned to go to the window of the guard room to register first.
The person in charge of the registration was a man in his thirties, wearing a military uniform, with a hoarse voice: "Name."
"Yun Feiyang." Shen Shi'an replied, pointing to the child in his arms: "Yun Ruibao."
