In order to deal with this crisis, Captain Pei divided the five top masters in the team into three groups, and they were stationed in the three important positions at the front, middle and back of the convoy.
The middle of the convoy was guarded by the psychic soldier who had just been promoted to level two yesterday.
Captain Pei and Wen Yubai, the two with the strongest combat capabilities, were responsible for the most difficult task of clearing the way. Because of Captain Pei's wind blade and Wen Yubai's flying knife, they could wipe out a large group of zombies at once without getting out of the car, clear out the zombies that blocked the vehicle's progress, and lead them out of the zombie encirclement to open up a bloody path.
Jiang Tianyan's ability to create a swamp-like obstacle at the rear of the car could temporarily stop the zombies from chasing them and give them some buffer time to escape, so Su Yongquan and Jiang Tianyan cut off the tail.
To be honest, if it was another team in today's situation, without masters like Captain Pei and Wen Yubai to lead the way, even if they didn't get wiped out, they would have suffered heavy casualties and would have lost all their supplies before they could escape.
As one of the two masters who were leading the way with Captain Pei, Wen Yubai had moved her seat from car number two to car number one the day before yesterday in order to be able to respond to unexpected situations at any time.
Because of this, Captain Pei has not only gotten used to discussing countermeasures with Wen Yubai in the past two days, but also has gotten used to telling Wen Yubai his decisions.
As for the holiday villa that Wen Yubai mentioned to Captain Pei, they had stayed there for one night on the way here. It had a defensive wall reinforced with metal, which was most suitable for them now.
In their current state, they would probably not be able to withstand another wave of zombies.
According to the original plan, they passed by the villa area at around 2 pm, so they did not plan to stay overnight. But now the situation is different, so it naturally became the best choice.
Therefore, it is impossible that Captain Pei did not think of the holiday villa area. He said this to Wen Yubai not to ask her, but to tell her that everyone had to rest well before setting off again.
When everyone arrived at the holiday villa, they found that they had just cleaned it up a few days ago, and now there were more than a hundred zombies inside, rushing towards the people who had parked the car.
Even though the people in Base No. 5 are now injured and tired, killing more than a hundred zombies is not a problem at all, it's just a piece of cake.
For safety and to recuperate, Wen Yubai drank an energy pill and "forced himself" to reinforce the house where they were temporarily staying with metal, so that even thousands of zombies would not be able to break in for a while.
Only after returning to the room assigned to her did Wen Yubai breathe a sigh of relief.
In order to conceal her true level of cultivation, she could not just not kill zombies at will in times of crisis, but also had to be careful not to reveal her strength as a third-level psychic. As a result, she was not only physically tired but also mentally exhausted after the battle.
"Host, among the group of zombies in Lutai City just now, there was a zombie that seemed to be a psychic zombie."
"What did you say?" Wen Yubai was startled, and all his tiredness disappeared.
Because there are zombies classified according to their supernatural attributes, the lowest level is the level 2 zombie.
So, although in the previous life, the second-level zombies appeared two months after the end of the world, in fact, it is only less than forty days after the end of the world, and the second-level zombies have already begun to appear.
However, after Wen Yubai thought about it, he didn't find it too strange, because when everyone knew about the second-level zombies in the previous life, there were not just one or two second-level zombies appearing sporadically, but there were traces of second-level zombies everywhere.
Wen Yubai recalled the behavior of the zombies in Lutai City today. They cooperated to surround them, and even after more than half of them were killed, they did not disperse.
She was indeed a little confused at the time, thinking that this group of zombies seemed to have a leader. But because she didn't find anyone to suspect, she put her doubts aside.
After all, even if a general level 2 zombie can command zombies below level 1, they can only control a few hundred at most, while the zombie group attacking them has tens of thousands of zombies.
Unexpectedly, her suspicion was true.
"Maybe that psychic zombie discovered that I was using psychic powers, so it didn't dare to show up."
Knowing that it was a zombie with psychopathic powers, Wen Yubai immediately guessed why he hadn't noticed it.
Psychic zombies are different from ordinary zombies. Although it is very difficult for a second-level psychic zombie to control more than 10,000 zombies, it is not impossible. After all, zombies attack humans because of their nature, and psychic zombies only need to "guide" them.
However, Wen Yubai, a third-level psychic, did not even notice the existence of a second-level psychic zombie, which means that the psychic zombie would deliberately avoid and conceal its existence.
"It should be like this. After I felt the mental power fluctuation, I searched around and found that the mental power fluctuation was emitted from a zombie. Host, you were using mental power to attack the zombie group at that time, and that mental power zombie immediately stopped its actions and dared not use mental power to control other zombies. It also moved from the middle position of the zombie group and quietly shrank to the back of the team, far away from you, host." said the system.
"You discovered this psycho zombie so early, why didn't you tell me at that time so that I could kill it in time. You also know how powerful psycho zombies are. It is not something that ordinary psychics can resist. When it grows a little bigger, I don't know how many people will die in its hands." Wen Yubai was a little angry.
You know, Lutai City is not far from Base No. 5, and it is impossible for her to go out on missions with her family every time. It would be dangerous if they came to Lutai City to do a mission.
"That zombie was at the back of the convoy at the beginning, too far away from you, the host. You were surrounded by zombies and couldn't free your hands. Moreover, when I found that zombie, it had already noticed your presence and began to shrink back." The system was innocent. It was more eager to deal with the psychic zombie than the host.
Wen Yubai fell back on the bed. In theory, the system was indeed correct in this matter. With such a long distance and thousands of zombies in between, she really couldn't take the opportunity to kill the cunning psychic zombie unless she exposed her psychic powers in front of everyone.
"If you encounter this kind of situation in the future, you can tell me and let me decide for myself what to do, because sometimes you may encounter the right opportunity, and if you know nothing, you will have no chance at all." Wen Yubai suppressed the inexplicable anger in his heart and spoke to the system patiently.
"I understand, host." The system was not upset by the host's temper and responded obediently.
Wen Yubai really wanted to get rid of the psychic zombie before it became stronger, but she had missed the opportunity because she didn't know about it before. Now she couldn't think of a good solution no matter how hard she thought.
Now that she was in this team, she couldn't act alone. In fact, even if she acted alone, she didn't dare to go to Lutai City alone, because she was not tired of living.
However, if this psychic zombie is not dealt with quickly and is allowed to advance to level three or four, not only will Lutai City become a death zone, but it will also sooner or later bring disaster to Base No. 5.
