Chapter 169: Tension (Second Update)
When the water ball pulsated, it captured everyone's attention. They all watched it nervously, expecting the next change. No one expected that it would suddenly explode.
When the water ball exploded, their hearts seemed to explode as well, and their pupils shrank suddenly. Then, they subconsciously looked towards Fang Yuxin.
They subconsciously thought that it was Fang Yuxin's mistake, but then they realized that the expression on Fang Yuxin's face looked very cold, but also very calm, which made them inexplicably relieved and subconsciously felt that the situation should not be that bad.
Sure enough, after the water ball exploded, it did not disappear or fall to the ground, but turned into a ball of flowing water mist. The next moment, the ball of water mist flew towards the wounded, just like the green mist just now, wrapping around their wounds and seeping into them.
Gradually, black substances oozed out of their wounds. Under the pale light, this scene looked particularly creepy, like a scene from a biochemical movie, which made people's scalps numb and their hearts tighten.
Even though Zhou Yan had witnessed the scene in the morning, he still felt his scalp tingling and goose bumps all over his body.
This picture is so shocking!
Although he had witnessed it once in the morning, it was only one person at that time. This time it was different. There were hundreds of people, wearing only underwear, standing naked, with hideous wounds all over their bodies. Black matter was sticking out of their wounds, and the pale light was shining on them...
This picture is so beautiful that I dare not continue watching it!
Zhou Yan wiped his face vigorously. Although he felt the visual shock was too horrible, he still gritted his teeth and continued to look down. Seeing more and more black substances oozing out of their wounds, there were suddenly panicked shouts from outside.
A tall soldier rushed in from outside, walked quickly to Zhou Yan and said, "Major Zhou, it's bad! The zombies have begun to attack the protective wall! The general asked you to go over as soon as possible! You must defend the protective wall!"
Since the military arrived at this safe zone, they have built a protective wall outside the safe zone. The protective wall is five meters high and half a meter thick. It took a lot of effort to build it, and the materials alone are countless.
If it weren't for the psychics using their supernatural powers to reinforce it, this protective wall would have been impossible to build in such a short time. The materials alone would have been a problem.
Zhou Yan looked at Fang Yuxin worriedly and asked her, "Miss Fang, should the injuries of these people be okay?"
Fang Yuxin nodded silently: "They will be fine, you can go quickly."
Zhou Yan nodded, and then he looked at Fang Yuyang. After hesitating for a while, he still didn't ask Fang Yuyang to go with him. It was very dangerous for him to go there. Although the protective wall was strong, if it encountered a strong force, it would probably collapse after a few collisions.
If Fang Yuyang followed him, he would be in great danger. Fang Yuxin had helped them so much, and he really couldn't let Fang Yuyang follow him to die.
But just as he turned his gaze away and was about to leave, a piercing alarm suddenly rang out throughout the entire safety zone. Then, the broadcast sounded.
"Attention all survivors! A large group of zombies have appeared outside the safe zone. The entire safe zone is in danger! Once the zombies break through the protective wall, the safe zone will become a living hell! We must unite as one and overcome this difficulty together! Now, all the psychics and mercenaries in the safe zone must gather in the square, and all doctors must be on standby in the observation room. Everyone must obey the orders and fight the zombies together!"
The broadcast was played several times in a loop, and the piercing alarm sounded non-stop! Everyone in the safe zone heard this sound!
Soon, the safe zone became chaotic.
Fang Yuyang glanced at Fang Yuxin, then took out his intercom and started calling the rest of the Yongsheng team. Then, Fang Yuxin's intercom rang, and it was Bai Ye who called her.
"Ms. Fang! I'm Bai Ye. Where are you now? I'll bring people there right away!"
Fang Yuxin glanced at the wounded and replied, "I am the chief physician and I am in the observation room now. You don't need to come. Just follow the transfer order."
Bai Ye's voice rang out again: "Let Qianqian stay by your side. Stay in the observation room together. Don't take any risks!"
Fang Yuxin responded, but thought in her heart that if the situation was really urgent, she would definitely not be able to stay in this observation room forever.
The observation room is very close to the gate of the safe zone, and is actually not safe at all. If it weren't for the emergency, these people with special identities would not be sent here at all. Once the battle begins, this place will become a temporary hospital, and countless wounded people will be sent here.
Fang Yuyang had already contacted his family, so soon, Fang Jintang and Qu Qianhe sent Bai Qianqian over and asked him to stay with Fang Yuxin.
Shang Jinxiu also came over. She was a space-based superpower user, and her superpowers could not be used for combat. She was just a mobile warehouse. However, she had practiced her skills these days and could kill ordinary zombies that were alone.
With such strength, she would be dead if she went out. In addition, she had a rare spatial ability, so the people in Yongsheng's team were unwilling to let her be cannon fodder.
Doctors came one after another. Some of these doctors had awakened wood-related abilities, while others were just ordinary people. However, they were doctors or nurses before the apocalypse and could treat wounds.
After all, there are too few people with wood-type abilities, but too many wounded soldiers. If there are too few doctors, they will not be able to handle the situation.
There is more than one observation room here, and because of the subsequent battles, other rooms have been tidied up and arranged as temporary hospitals to await the arrival of the wounded.
The Yongsheng team had already left, leaving only Bai Qianqian and Shang Jinxiu with Fang Yuxin. Bai Qianqian also brought Angela, which was only the size of a palm. At this moment, lying on Fang Yuxin's shoulder, it looked like a harmless and beautiful pet.
Except for a few people who knew how powerful Angela was, many others didn't know. Even Bai Qianqian and Shang Jinxiu, many people didn't know their identities as superpowers. Seeing that Bai Qianqian, a little kid, also ran to the observation room and even brought a fat little kitten, many people's eyes gradually became piercing, just like hungry refugees seeing the rich second generation who squandered money on pets.
The hatred is almost full!
But Fang Yuxin's strength was there, and these people didn't dare to offend Fang Yuxin at all, so they could only stare at them with unfriendly eyes through the iron fence.
Those looks were too piercing, and Fang Yuxin couldn't pretend to ignore them. She turned her head and looked at those people expressionlessly, raised the corner of her mouth slightly, reached out to grab Angela, and gently stroked the soft long hair on its back.
Angela didn't care what others thought. Fang Yuxin's caress made her particularly satisfied. She cried softly and kept rubbing her round head against Fang Yuxin's palm.
Seeing this heartwarming scene, the gazes of the others instantly became more piercing, and their faces became extremely ugly. Some of them even wanted to rush to Fang Yuxin and tell her in person that instead of wasting food on raising useless pets, it would be better to give the extra food to those poor survivors.
It's a pity that they only dared to say such things in their hearts. After all, Fang Yuxin was the chief physician and had the second-level wood ability. These people didn't dare to offend her at all.
While Fang Yuxin was communicating with Angela, he was also paying attention to the changes in the wounded, waiting for all the zombie viruses in their bodies to be eliminated.
The waiting process was long, and compared to the relative calm here, other parts of the safe zone were already in chaos. After hesitating, many people resolutely obeyed the order and gathered at the square even though they knew the danger.
And even more people simply don't dare to leave their homes. These people have basically never gone out to hunt zombies, or have only hunted zombies occasionally. They are not strong enough, and they are even less courageous!
They didn't have the courage to face the zombies directly. They were terrified when they heard the broadcast and the alarm. They didn't dare to come out, so they locked themselves in the house, their hands holding the weapons trembling, anxiously waiting for the latest news outside. They hoped that others could go out and desperately stop the zombies outside the protective wall to give them a chance to survive.
In some families, there are even arguments over whether to go out and fight the zombies.
Therefore, the number of people gathered in the square at first was not large, and these people were basically all soldiers, police and people with special abilities.
The three generals in the safe zone were also among them, except for Qiu Hongsheng, the other two generals were already superpowers. Looking at the other two colleagues who were in high spirits, Qiu Hongsheng felt very uncomfortable. General Song and General Li looked at his pale face and looked at each other, feeling a little gloating in their hearts.
The fact that both of them were able to awaken their special powers was ultimately thanks to Fang Yuxin, Qiu Hongsheng's former future daughter-in-law!
Unfortunately, the Qiu family really went too far and actually pushed away a huge opportunity, which ended up benefiting the two of them.
Seeing Qiu Hongsheng's jealousy, they couldn't help but want to see what his expression would be like after he knew the truth. However, this unreliable idea was just a thought, and they must not tell the truth.
After all, Fang Yuxin had done them a huge favor, and it would be extremely immoral for them to betray her.
The thought in the two men's minds was only a moment. Now that they were in danger, they had no time to think about these trivial things.
They had discussed it before coming, so after a brief encouragement, the three of them told each other about their previous arrangements. Their arrangements were actually very simple. Those who knew how to use guns would stand on the city wall with guns and shoot. The earth-type ability users would be responsible for reinforcing the walls, while the others would be responsible for vigilance. Once a zombie broke through the protective wall, they would rush up and drive the zombie out immediately.
