Chapter 211 Breaking out of the encirclement (Second update)

Although the huge bird of prey had already left, the fleeting glimpse of it left an indelible and shocking impression on everyone.

It is impossible to imagine how terrifying this terrifying creature is unless you see it. However, just one encounter with it is enough to create a strong sense of fear from the bottom of one's heart.

Fang Yuxin had the memory of her past life, and she knew better than anyone else how terrifying birds were. She felt that the appearance of this raptor was like a signal of danger, because she began to feel uneasy since it appeared.

This uneasiness came so suddenly and so strongly that Fang Yuxin couldn't ignore it at all. There was no one nearby, so after hesitating for a while, she decided to stay and rest for a while and make some preparations before setting off again.

Bai Ye noticed that she looked strange, and couldn't help but asked worriedly, "Miss Fang, what's wrong?"

Fang Yuxin looked at him after hearing this, thought for a moment and said, "Don't call me Miss Fang anymore. Since we are all companions, there is no need to be so unfamiliar."

Bai Ye's heart trembled rapidly, and he asked expectantly: "Then what should I call you in the future?" He thought that the name "Xinxin" was very good, but he felt that asking directly like that was too abrupt, so he changed the question to a more euphemistic way.

Fang Yuxin was thinking about birds at the moment, and didn't notice the expectation in Bai Ye's words. Her attitude was very cold: "You can call me Yuxin from now on." If she called me by her full name, it would feel weird and too unfamiliar. But if she just called me "Xinxin", it would be too intimate. So Fang Yuxin thought about it and chose a compromise.

Bai Ye was very disappointed, but he didn't show it on his face. The corners of his mouth just drooped slightly, which was impossible to see unless you looked closely.

He noticed that Fang Yuxin seemed to be very concerned about the bird of prey, so he said, "The one that just flew over should be an eagle. It's a pity that we were too far away to tell what species it was. But judging from its huge size, it must have mutated. The eagle is a bird of prey, and it's probably even more difficult to deal with after the mutation. If it attacks humans, with its speed and flying advantage, ordinary people will not be able to match it at all."

Who said it wasn't? Fang Yuxin sighed. This was exactly what she was worried about.

Bai Ye secretly looked at her expression and continued, "It seems that we have to be more careful next time. There must be more than one mutated bird. If we encounter a flock of mutated birds or zombie birds, the situation will be dangerous."

After he finished speaking, he realized that Fang Yuxin didn't listen at all, but turned to look at Fang Yuyang. At this moment, Fang Yuyang still kept his head up, looking in the direction where the bird of prey disappeared.

Bai Ye thought that he must be very concerned about the raptor, but the other party had already left, so it was meaningless to watch it. He only dared to think about it in his heart and didn't dare to say it out loud. The other party was Fang Yuxin's brother, and he didn't want to offend Fang Yuxin because of his bad mouth.

Fang Yuxin didn't have such scruples and asked directly: "Brother, what's wrong? What are you looking at?"

Fang Yuyang came back to his senses and looked at Fang Yuxin and said, "Xinxin, do you think that bird of prey is powerful?"

Fang Yuxin immediately understood what Fang Yuyang meant. Just as Bai Ye said, the raptor should be a mutant eagle, but the distance was too far to see what kind it was. Judging from its shape and speed, the mutant eagle was indeed a rare raptor, and it was very suitable for Fang Yuyang, who was a wind type.

If Fang Yuyang could successfully contract it, it would definitely become a ferocious and skilled fighting partner!

Thinking of Fang Yuyang, Fang Yuxin's originally tense nerves suddenly relaxed. How could she forget that Fang Yuyang awakened a wind-related ability, which was a natural enemy to those birds that flew with the help of the wind!

In the previous life, she was the one who dragged Fang Yuyang down, but this life is different!

Thinking of this, Fang Yuxin's originally heavy mood instantly became relaxed. However, although Fang Yuyang's wind ability is powerful, some necessary preparations still need to be done.

Chen Si and the others were still digging crystal cores at this time, so she had plenty of time to prepare. Fang Yuxin directly used her true energy to her fingertips and began to carve a defensive formation on the car body.

Bai Ye narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw her move. He thought for a moment and felt that he should avoid suspicion, so he said, "I'll go deal with those zombies."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a white light shooting out from Fang Yuxin's wrist. Then, Lan Ruo, who had turned into her original form, began to feast on the food.

Lan Ruo is a mutant crystal orchid, a saprophytic plant, and zombies are food to it. After the crystal core in the zombie's brain is dug out, the body is of no great use to humans, and is basically burned directly. However, these residues are a great tonic for Lan Ruo.

The bodies of zombies also contain energy, but humans cannot absorb and utilize it. Lan Ruo can do it, so in its opinion, it is better to let it swallow the zombies instead of burning them.

Bai Ye's face froze, but he did not stop Lan Ruo from eating. Lan Ruo was Fang Yuxin's pet, so of course he had to look at her differently. Besides, these zombies were of no use to him, so there was nothing wrong with letting Lan Ruo eat them.

He had no objection, and Chen Si and the others had even less objection. While they were digging the crystal core quickly, they were also secretly observing Fang Yuxin's movements with their peripheral vision. Seeing her drawing on the car body, they all had some thoughts in their hearts.

But they can't completely trust Fang Yuxin yet, so even though they know that what she is doing now has some purpose, they can't hand over their car to her.

Bai Ye, on the other hand, saw some clues from Fang Yuxin's actions. He hesitated for a moment, and felt that Chen Si and the others didn't need his help, so he simply walked to the side of the car, stretched out his hands and gently pressed them against the car body, then condensed a layer of metal to further strengthen the car body.

Because of Bai Ye's presence, their car looked very new, unlike other people's cars, which were torn and covered with scratches by zombies.

Even the car of Yongsheng Team had scratches of varying sizes on its body, but because they were strong, there were not many scratches and the situation was not serious.

Fang Yuxin quickly drew up a defensive formation, the main function of which was to reinforce the car body and bounce back the attacks. It was completely different from the defensive formation at home, much simpler and easier to set up.

The Yongsheng team drove a total of three vehicles, two of which were black off-road vehicles, and the remaining one was a heavy motorcycle ridden by Fang Yuyang. Ever since the raptor appeared, Fang Yuxin was worried that more dangerous birds would appear in the future, and it would not be safe for Fang Yuyang to ride a motorcycle again.

Because there were other people around, she asked Shang Jinxiu to store Fang Yuyang's motorcycle into the space. At this time, Bai Ye and the others were also busy, only Lan Ruo had released all the clones and was eating crazily with the original body.

Fang Yuxin waited for a while, and soon, Lan Ruo finished eating, leaving only a pile of black skeletons on the ground. Qu Qianhe set a fire and burned all the skeletons to ashes.

After that, everyone hit the road together, heading all the way to the highway. The direction of the highway was opposite to the safe zone, and the outer perimeter of the safe zone was surrounded by layers of zombies. They almost rushed all the way out, and everyone took action repeatedly, and it took a lot of effort to finally break out of the heavy encirclement of zombies.

Fortunately, they had made preparations beforehand, so the zombies' claws did not cause any damage to the car body, but instead allowed them to harvest a lot of crystal cores. However, after such a tense fight, mental fatigue was inevitable.

After breaking out of the encirclement, the number of zombies began to decrease, and there were only small-scale zombie groups, which were not difficult to deal with.

Seeing that they were getting farther and farther away from the zombie encirclement, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. However, thinking about the previous scene carefully, they were still frightened.

Although the existence of the safe zone protects most survivors and provides them with a place to stay, it is also the presence of a large number of survivors that makes the safe zone a huge "cake" in the eyes of zombies. It is full of fresh blood and flesh, which is an irresistible temptation for zombies.

This also led to more and more zombies surrounding the safe zone, looking for opportunities to attack. It is easy to imagine that zombie attacks on the city will definitely happen frequently in the future. Once the people inside cannot resist, the zombies outside will invade in one fell swoop and frantically hunt down the humans in the safe zone.

The current relatively stable situation may not be a cunning calculation of the zombies.

Zombies are dead, but humans are alive. As long as humans don't die out, they can continue to live forever. Once new life is born, it will be new food for zombies.

Fang Yuxin wasn’t sure if the zombies were already that smart, but as long as they continued to evolve, they would definitely be able to think of this.

Moreover, the zombies on the periphery simply surrounded the safe zone layer by layer but did not rush in all at once, which in itself was very suspicious.

Unfortunately, they had already broken out of the encirclement and were beyond the range of the walkie-talkie, making it impossible for them to contact the people in the safe zone.

Fang Yuxin thought about it and shook her head. Never mind. Everyone has their own destiny. Anyway, she had already written down everything she thought of on paper. General Song was not a fool. He must have thought of some of the problems she could think of, and he might have thought of things she hadn't thought of.

She really had nothing to worry about.

After leaving the encirclement, there were fewer zombies outside, but relatively speaking, all the survivors were in the safe zone and a certain range outside the safe zone, and there was no one outside. Fang Yuxin and his group suddenly appeared, and for these zombies, it was like a delicacy that was suddenly served after being hungry for a long time. How could they let it go?

So before long, the zombies that were outside the encirclement surrounded them.

These zombies were limited in number, and before they could form a large-scale zombie group, they were killed to pieces.
