Chapter 680: Gathering the Team
Leng Ning frowned slightly and gestured for everyone to be quiet.
"The zombies we are facing this time are different from the previous ones." Leng Ning said with a serious expression.
There was some commotion among the soldiers, but this time no one spoke loudly.
Their master was usually very friendly, and many of them had followed him on missions. They often joked and amused themselves with him, and their master often got along well with them.
But today, the hall master was indeed a little serious.
"According to the information I have now, the zombies in Heyu Town are different from those in other places. There are no zombies with special abilities there."
Everyone was talking about it.
"Wouldn't it be simpler without the zombies with special powers?" someone asked Leng Ning puzzledly.
The others also looked at Leng Ning curiously.
"It's not that simple." Leng Ning looked solemn.
"There are two types of zombies in Heyu Town. One type is as easy to deal with as the ordinary zombies we have here. The other type of zombies is more difficult to deal with than the mutant zombies."
"The most difficult zombies are the ones with black crystal cores."
Black? There have never been any zombies with black crystal cores in City A! What the hell is this?
"This type of zombie has higher hearing, vision and intelligence than ordinary zombies, and its movements are also more agile than ordinary zombies. The most important thing is--" Leng Ning looked at the soldiers.
"They can affect the ability users' use of mental power, weaken or even block the ability users' mental power output."
For a moment, everyone's heart was shocked.
The superpowers of a psychic are all driven by mental power. If the mental power cannot be output, then the superpowers cannot be used, right?
"Yes, it's just what you think. When you arrive at Heyu Town, your special abilities will be useless, and only guns will be useful then." Leng Ning said in a deep voice.
The soldiers were talking among themselves.
"Don't be afraid of using guns. We are all sharpshooters here!" said a soldier.
Before coming to the Ninth Branch, all of them were the best in the major branches, and most of them were elites in the First or Second Branch.
After they joined the army, in addition to practicing their supernatural powers, they also learned a lot of knowledge and skills from the troops before the apocalypse, and shooting was a very important one among them.
After all, shooting does not consume mental energy, and the gun in your hand can save your life at a critical moment. This is why each of them is equipped with a large amount of ammunition.
"That's right! Even if it's a wave of zombies coming, we will kill them all!" said another soldier.
"Kill him and dig out the crystal core to see what the black crystal core looks like?!" A soldier began to make a fuss.
“——”
Leng Ning stretched out his hand and asked everyone to be quiet again.
"The black crystal core is as dangerous as the zombies that carry it. According to the information at the Heyu base, the black crystal core is very likely to carry the 'zombie virus' that is unique to Heyu Town."
"Ordinary people may become zombies if they come into contact with the black crystal core for more than three hours. As for those with special abilities, coming into contact with the black crystal core will greatly affect the release of their mental power." Leng Ning continued.
"Master Lei and I have done tests before. When we hold the black crystal core, the mental power we can release is less than one percent of the normal level, which can be said to be negligible. And because the mental power released is not stable enough, the supernatural power released has almost no lethality."
Everyone's expression immediately became serious.
What level of supernatural power do their hall master and Lei Shao have! They have been affected by the black crystal core to this extent. If the matter were to happen to them, the situation would only be worse.
"In addition, zombies with black crystal cores are highly contagious. According to the news from the Heyu Base, no matter if they are psychics or ordinary people, once they are bitten by this kind of zombie, they will be immediately infected by the zombie virus, and there is no cure. The onset time is only five minutes at most."
As soon as Leng Ning said this, the whole place suddenly became quiet.
So what the hall master meant was that one would die if kissed by those zombies?
If this is true, then this mission is indeed very dangerous.
"So this time when we go to the Heyu base, we must not underestimate the enemy!" Leng Ning said seriously.
"Yes!" The soldiers stood at attention immediately. There was no way they could relax.
"After you get off the helicopter tomorrow, you will form groups of four and eliminate the zombies besieging us from four directions."
"After killing the zombies on the top of the mountain, follow me and Master Lei and we will clear out all the zombies along the main road. Clear out all the zombies on the entire mountain." A ruthless look flashed in Leng Ning's eyes.
"Yes!" the soldiers said excitedly.
I have almost imagined a battle that will shock the world and make ghosts cry.
"Now, check your equipment. Each person should carry at least 10,000 rounds of ammunition and at least 50 pistols with silencers," Leng Ning continued.
For this mission, she moved Leng's previous arms inventory. All orders from Leng's previous customers were postponed.
At the same time, the military arsenal has been working hard these days to produce military supplies for the Heyu base and the military supplies they will use this time.
Thanks to the fact that the arsenal had expanded its factory a while ago and opened a new factory, they were able to get the goods she wanted.
"Yes!" The soldiers immediately counted the equipment they brought.
Leng Ning waited for a long time, making sure that all the soldiers had finished counting their equipment before continuing to speak.
"Thank you." Leng Ning said suddenly.
"Yes." Xie Yi responded quickly.
"You will lead everyone in shooting training later to ensure that their skills are up to standard before they set off." Leng Ning said in a deep voice.
"Yes!" Xie Yi immediately accepted the order.
"Go ahead." Leng Ning said.
"Come with me to the shooting range!" Xie Yi immediately said to the soldiers.
"What's the point of going to the shooting range? Master, why don't you take us to hunt zombies outside the safe zone?!" a soldier suddenly said.
Immediately, the rest of the soldiers also looked at Leng Ning.
"Yes, Hall Master, wouldn't it be better if we just go out and shoot live targets?!"
"Master, let's go hunt zombies!" another soldier followed.
Xie Yi raised his voice, "You little bastards, the hall master has his own arrangements, just obey his orders, why are there so many demands?!"
Xie Yi's shout scared all the soldiers.
Although they didn't dare to beg Leng Ning anymore, they didn't move a step. They just looked at Leng Ning eagerly, hoping that she would change her mind.
"What are you dawdling for? Hurry up and go! " Xie Yi shouted again.
The soldiers were obviously afraid of thanks, and turned away unwillingly, preparing to leave.
"Uh - forget it. Since everyone has this idea -" Leng Ning finally spoke.
The soldiers looked delighted and quickly turned around to look at Leng Ning.
“The hall master is so nice!”
"The hall master is so considerate!"
"..." There was a constant stream of flattery.
Xie Yi looked at Leng Ning, "Master, you don't have to--"
Just as he was about to speak, Leng Ning stopped him with his hand.
"It's okay. I don't have anything important to do today anyway."
