Chapter 76 Zombie Attack

Pu Zhi had no reaction to Jiang Weibo's death. She even felt that his death was a bit too easy. It was a pity that she had no hobby of abusing corpses.

At this time, she was sitting at the dining table, listening to Luo Yun, who came to eat for a free meal, talking about their experience of going to Shuixi City.

"That evil dragon gang is really crazy. They actually built their headquarters inside the zombie group! Every day they are escorted by the high priest, and they only drive for one hour in the morning and afternoon. After that time, you can only wait outside.

But the high priest has now surrendered to our base and moved into Area 1. It is convenient to have supernatural powers. We can only live in Area 2, but he has moved into Area 1. He only needs to follow the big shots of the base when they go out, and he doesn't have to do any dangerous missions."

Xia Qi: "So you were trapped by zombies, that's why it took so long?"

Luo Yun: "Yes, the Evil Dragon Gang is the only one in Shuixi City. One of the leaders even ate human flesh and was executed on the spot. The people in it committed many evil deeds and almost all of them were killed. The rest of the supernatural people were sent to the first area for labor reform."

Pu Zhi couldn't help but frown when hearing this. He was just a subordinate who followed orders and killed him, but the culprit, the psychic, was actually sent to a labor camp?

What do the people at the top think...

——

It was early February and it hadn’t rained for almost half a month.

The base ran out of water and water prices skyrocketed.

The price of one ton of water soared to 200 points, and a small basin of water cost almost two points. It is difficult for ordinary people to even get enough food, so how could they have extra points to buy water?

I can only drink a little water every day to maintain my life, and I don't even want to use it to clean my body. This makes the smell in Areas 4 and 5 even worse.

Every time we passed by, everyone drove away as fast as they could. That place stinked even more than a pigsty.

The base also sent a lot of people to look for water, but to no avail. The ground was cracked, the plants withered, the air was extremely dry, and it felt like talking was eating flour.

However, in such difficult times, the base took in a large number of survivors, and the entrance fee was changed from ten kilograms of food to one kilogram.

The number of people at the base suddenly increased from 350,000 to 500,000.

Districts 4 and 5 were immediately full, and the requirements for entering Districts 3 and 2 were also lowered significantly, resulting in Puzhi having many more neighbors.

The most special person is a female researcher named Su Qingzhu. Before the end of the world, she was studying for a doctorate in genetics. Such people are rare talents in the end of the world. As expected, she entered the research institute in Area 1 and became an intern researcher.

She had a good impression of the second team, especially Pu Zhi, and often sent some things issued by the unit.

This time it was the newly developed drought-resistant sweet potatoes, which were already cooked and cut into pieces the size of a baby's fist, about ten pieces in total.

"Thank you." Pu Zhi took it, put the sweet potatoes on a plate and placed it on the coffee table in the hall.

Zhao Yunyao picked the biggest one and stuffed it into her mouth without even peeling the skin. She felt satisfied only when she ate it in big mouthfuls.

"Sister Qingzhu, you are so nice!" After eating, Zhao Yunyao licked her lips contentedly and praised.

This sweet potato has a hard texture and a powdery taste, which makes it a bit choking to eat, but it is a very good food for today's apocalypse with extreme temperatures.

Su Qingzhu didn't stay long and left after delivering the things. However, the second team would not eat for free, so Mother Du would sometimes make dumplings and send them to her.

If the second team finds snacks or other supplies, they will give some as a token of appreciation if they have extra.

It was the end of February and it had not rained in Diwen City for more than a month. The high temperature during the day caused the water to evaporate particularly quickly, and the price of water had risen to the same price as food.

When everyone was suffering, on March 1st, the sky, which had never been clouded, was filled with thick blue-gray clouds, which was an obvious sign of rain.

The residents of the base subconsciously ignored the fact that the color of the clouds was wrong; as long as it rained, they had water to drink.

At noon, the temperature, which usually reaches over 50 degrees, is only 20 degrees.

The sky, which had been brewing for a long time, finally began to rain heavily.

Many residents used up all their household belongings to collect rainwater, which counted as points.

Under Pu Zhi's deliberate guidance, Team 2 did not go on any mission today.

Looking at the rain, Du Tao was the first to speak out: "It stinks!"

Xia Guang reached out and caught some rain water. It really had a strange smell, just like the rain after the typhoon.

Upon hearing this, the others took a careful sniff and found that there was indeed a stench, but it was quite mild.

Xia Qi stared at the dark clouds in the sky and made a guess: "This rain is probably not simple. There were zombies in the previous rain, what will it be this time?"

However, the reality was worse than he expected. That night, the rain had just stopped.

drop--

drop---

drop----

A loud alarm sounded in the base, and the piercing sound woke everyone up.

Before everyone could figure out the situation, team after team of troops rushed to the city wall.

The alarm sounded for a full five minutes before it stopped. Then a clear female voice sounded: "This is the control center of Base No. 3. A large number of zombies have gathered outside the base. All hunting teams and patrol teams are requested to rush to the wall immediately to strangle the zombies. This operation is commanded by Deputy Base Commander Cheng Wenxiu.

Residents who are able are requested to give some support to the base. In addition, all residents must keep an eye on those around them who have been caught in the rain. According to Dr. Shangxi's research, green acid rain has a certain probability of turning people into zombies.

Once again, residents who have been caught in the rain may mutate into zombies, so please be careful and don’t go out unless necessary! "

After that, the radio kept repeating this sentence.

Everyone in the base heard these words. Those who were happy to get wet in the rain during the day immediately became terrified. Everyone felt that the people around them would suddenly turn into zombies and bite them.

I wanted to run away, but the streets were full of people and there was nowhere to hide.

It is safer to go to Area 3 or Area 2 where there are fewer people.

But the base had been prepared, and the defenses between the five zones were raised to the maximum. Anyone who tried to cross the line would be shot immediately.

The second team came out almost at the same time as several other hunting teams. The troops on the main street stood straight on both sides of the road, blocking all residents and ensuring that the support vehicles had no obstruction.

As soon as I arrived at the gate of the base, I saw the deputy base commander wearing a military uniform. He was no more than forty years old, with a neatly groomed, thick beard that was already slightly graying. He had a square face and a firm, powerful gaze that convinced people at first sight.

The captain of Hunting Team 10 stood at the front, waiting for the deputy base commander to give orders.

"This crisis is greater than any other in the past, but we must succeed this time. Failure is not allowed. This is the key to the survival of Base No. 3!

The situation is urgent, so I won't say much. Team one will guard the main gate, teams two and three will cross guard the left and right sides of the main gate, and the rest of the teams will do the same. Make sure to protect the base!"

The captains of the ten teams responded in unison: "Yes!"

Then Deputy Base Commander Cheng waved his hand and told them to hurry up, as he still had to make arrangements for other people.

Pu Zhi followed Zhang Xiaobai and quickly climbed up the wall. At this time, there were already many soldiers on it, with various weapons set up.

The third patrol team led by Liu Zi was also among them. The zombies had surrounded them in a dense circle. A rough glance showed that the number was close to 100,000.
