Hearing Tang Xinjue's voice, the team leader turned his head again, only to find that there were not only two students who looked like zombies, but also three clean girls with no injuries.
He adjusted his thick-soled glasses with trembling hands: "You, are you really not infected?"
Sun Qian's original fear turned into displeasure: "I just have a skin disease on my body. Being ugly doesn't mean I'm a ghost, okay?"
Leader: "..."
Two minutes later, the chants of "Run" turned into screams of "Don't trample!" A group of students finally calmed down and walked into the supermarket cautiously, still preparing to sprint and escape at any time.
The leader was a young boy with a very bookish look. He wiped his glasses nervously to confirm that there were no zombies nearby, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and asked the five of them, "Are you any survivors nearby?"
Tang Xinjue glanced back, and Sun Qian understood: "We escaped from other strongholds!"
She pointed to the injuries on her body: "These were also caused by those two strongholds, and on him..."
After listening to the girl's narration, the students at the third base looked at each other in disbelief.
"I heard that other strongholds are very powerful, and they have food and safety. How could this be??"
The team leader was also dumbfounded: "Actually, to tell you the truth, we originally planned to find a stronghold for our family to defect to."
Sun Qian: "... But aren't you the stronghold?"
The team leader had a bitter face: "But we have nothing to eat!"
As Tang Xinjue guessed, they were the students stationed at the stronghold of the Student Affairs Center.
Just like what they analyzed at the beginning, the student affairs center is small, with only one floor, and the outside is all glass doors, which can be said to be easy to attack and difficult to defend. The students spend their days in it tremblingly, maybe they will be broken by zombies at any time.
But this is not the most difficult part. At the beginning, there were only two students who set up the stronghold, and the number of people who came later gradually increased. The meager food reserves were quickly exhausted, and they could only come out to look for food. He is often chased by zombies to the brim and has nothing to gain.
Spitting out the bitterness about the stronghold, the team leader was full of sadness. He was one of the people who established the stronghold at the beginning, and the other classmate had disappeared in order to grab a bag of expired popcorn from the zombies, and his life and death are still unknown.
Tang Xinjue nodded: "I see. So, are these the elite members of your stronghold?"
She looked at the dozen or so people behind him.
Team leader: "Oh, no, they are all members of the stronghold."
The entire stronghold, men, women and children, except for those who were seriously ill and injured and could not walk, all came out to fight in the wild. After all, it is better to come out and fight the zombies than to starve to death in the stronghold.
Fortunately, Emperor Tian paid off, they finally got their hands on the back door of a supermarket warehouse this morning. Inside were all food that had just expired and hadn't had time to throw it away, almost enough for them to eat for several days!
Having said that, the team leader secretly glanced at the shovel in the hands of Tang Xinjue and the others, took out a bag of whole wheat bread from his pocket, and said in pain:
"Everyone meets because of fate, this is for you, and we will be friends in the future, take care of each other if you have something to do..."
606: ...
Do they look like robbers who can block the way
Rejecting the leader's offer to pay the "protection fee", Tang Xinjue instead recommended Sun Qian and Yang Hang to them.
The team leader was a little flattered. Many students ran away as soon as they saw the conditions on their side. Only those who trusted their acquaintances or were too lazy to leave would stay.
This is the first time that an experienced student volunteered to join us!
"Be prepared, there may be many people defecting to you next."
Tang Xinjue said.
Everyone's first reaction was disbelief, but seeing the other party's calm expression and tone, combined with the "secret" of the other two big strongholds, they couldn't help being a little shaken.
Could it be that their small broken stronghold can persist
After finding the whereabouts of Sun Yang and Tang Xinjue, the three of them had no intention of staying for a long time, and left quickly after exchanging contact information with the third base.
They have received important information, and there are more urgent things to do next.
"A total of three student strongholds, one for screening sacrifices for sacrifices, one for researching viruses and conducting experiments, and only one is a safe place that truly provides shelter for students... The safety is open to question."
After summarizing the situation in the dormitory area, Zhang You frowned: "It really fits the usual style of the game."
Not only cheat candidates, but also NPC can't escape.
"Since the dungeon forced us to contact the stronghold, it means that their next actions will definitely have an impact on the ending of the dungeon."
Tang Xinjue said.
She glanced at the sky, the sun had completely broken through the clouds, symbolizing the rapid shift of time from morning to noon.
The material airdrop announced by the student union is coming soon, and by then, the entire school may fall into unprecedented chaos.
But Guo Guo still has no news.
"If I were Guoguo, if I can't contact you, I will definitely go back to the dormitory first."
Zhang You speculated based on her understanding of Guo Guo.
They have asked the students of the third stronghold to help spread their attention, and the next best way is to go back to the dormitory to search.
While speaking, the outlines of 33 dormitory buildings came into view.
Zheng Wanqing was the most impatient: "Wait, shall we go through the door or the balcony?"
If Guo Guo had already returned to the dormitory, it would be most convenient for the three of them to climb up from the external balcony. But what if Guo Guo hadn't returned yet, and was trapped in the dormitory building by the dungeon that didn't behave like a human being
Tang Xinjue stopped suddenly.
"You reminded me."
She took out the battery and the remaining elderly phone, and dialed a number.
After the first phone call, Yu Wei, who was the only one left in the dormitory, never heard from her again.
According to Yu Wei's talkative personality, she neither asked them about their situation, nor sent a text message to tell Guo Guo if there was any news, which was strange in itself.
From one point of view, it may be that there is no need to contact... But if you look at it from the opposite point of view, it is impossible to contact
"Sorry, the number you dialed is empty, please try again later..."
In bedroom 606.
Yu Wei tried different numbers over and over again, sweating on her forehead, but she still couldn't make up the number in her memory.
Originally, she was overjoyed to receive a call from classmate Tang, but she soon discovered to her great joy that the phone she was connected to had run out of battery.
And she failed to memorize Tang Xinjue's number.
— This means that she can only wait for the other party to call again, but she can't take the initiative to contact them!
After carefully arranging the last few mobile phones with power, Yu Wei slumped on the chair, praying that they would come back soon with a very insecure feeling.
Better be back right away, whoever comes...
Boom boom boom.
The sudden knock on the door almost scared Yu Wei off her chair, student Tang came back so quickly
She originally ran to the door and wanted to ask, but instead realized that, apart from the evenly rhythmic knocking on the door, the silence seemed a bit too much.
Even if the four people in 606 didn't bring the keys, they would definitely make a sound to prove their identity when they knocked on the door, instead of saying nothing.
Yu Wei swallowed, and finally whispered: "Who is it?"
After a long silence outside the door, a hoarse voice answered her: "It's me, monitor."
