Chapter 41 All fear stems from insufficient firepower!



Look at it like this.

Xu Qingluo wasn't joking; it seemed she really had something important to discuss with him.

"You know about Wu Yong and the others' recent situation, right?"

Wu Yong?

Is that the muscular guy from before?

He knew about this group's situation; in order to pay rent and exchange for food, they had to go out every day to hunt zombies and collect crystal cores.

The main target is the zombies on the commercial street.

Their hunting method was simple: they deliberately created noise to lure the zombies out, then separated them and defeated them one by one.

The method used to arrest them was the same as that used by Zhu Wei and others.

Zhu Wei and his group were not strong enough to deal with even a first-level evolved zombie, and they would be caught up by the zombie if they were not careful.

so.

They failed back then.

However, this group is strong enough to execute the plan perfectly, and they can harvest more than a dozen crystal cores every day.

Occasionally, they can even hunt down a few second-tier zombies.

That's right.

Second-tier zombies have appeared in the commercial street, including the crawler that Xu Qingluo encountered earlier.

I just don't know.

Are the crawlers over on the commercial street evolved from existing zombies, or did they come from somewhere else?

and.

There is also a newly discovered type of second-tier zombie.

These zombies have fingers that have transformed into long, thin claws, sharp enough to easily pierce through steel plates, and they move with incredible speed.

Facing the crawlers.

They could barely manage, but if they accidentally encountered such a monster, no one would make it back alive.

therefore.

They call it the Claw of Death!

“Yesterday Wu Yong told me that there are more and more zombies in the commercial street, which is similar to the situation before.”

Xu Qingluo looked at Lin Mo with a serious expression: "These zombies will eventually attack the community, so you need to prepare in advance."

Hunting every day.

The number of zombies in the commercial street is increasing rather than decreasing, and the horde is growing larger and larger, which is clearly abnormal.

She had encountered this situation before.

At first.

After breaking out of Nanshan University.

They found a shelter nearby, since the area around the university was relatively well-stocked with various shops all over the streets.

Most of the zombies in that area roamed inside and near the school gate; their shelters were far away.

I thought things would be peaceful for a while.

result.

On the third night, they were attacked by zombies, but fortunately the horde was not large this time, and they were discovered in time.

Even so.

They also lost more than half of their men before barely managing to break through the encirclement. Initially, they had dozens of men!

To prevent this from happening again.

They chose to evacuate to areas with lower zombie density and eventually arrived at this commercial development zone.

.........

After hearing this information.

Lin Mo suddenly remembered the official message: gather enough survival supplies and get away from the zombie-infested area as soon as possible.

Before.

He didn't realize anything was wrong.

Now it seems there was another meaning behind it; I had oversimplified things.

Lin Mo couldn't help but mutter, "A zombie horde?"

If it were before...

He could emulate the first operation, drive the tree-cutting vehicle with guns out and run over the zombies in the commercial district.

This way, there's no need to worry about a zombie horde forming.

but.

The situation is different now.

Second-tier zombies appeared over the commercial street. The crawlers were manageable, but the Death Claw was proving to be a real pain.

Although.

Lin Mo estimated that even a second-tier zombie wouldn't be able to withstand the barrage of bullets.

But as long as there is even the slightest risk, even if the probability is very small, he would never risk his life.

"I didn't expect this to happen here. It seems that as long as we are still in the city, the impact of the zombie horde is unavoidable."

Xu Qingluo sighed helplessly: "There are too many zombies in the commercial street."

“Going there would have been no different from sending Wu Yong and his men to their deaths. I told them to temporarily stop hunting and instead guard the area around the residential area.”

There's nothing wrong with this decision.

Lin Mo nodded slightly upon hearing this, and he had no other opinion on the matter.

"We can have them make some preparations recently, such as adding some traps and roadblocks on the road, which can effectively prevent the zombie horde from attacking."

Xu Qingluo added, "If you don't have absolute certainty that you can withstand the onslaught of the zombie horde, then..."

"We'll take the supplies and evacuate the city first, lay low for a while, and come back later."

This method only treats the symptoms, not the root cause.

They evacuated the city because of food shortages, but they would eventually have to return; the threat of the zombie horde remained.

Although.

He can solve his food problem through the Bear World game, but money will eventually run out, and he doesn't want to sleep in the wilderness.

Life is so good now!

"Oh, right."

Xu Qingluo seemed to have remembered something and suddenly said, "There's something I forgot to tell you."

“We encountered another group of survivors before; those guys had guns and were trying to capture me.”

Speaking of which...

Xu Qingluo's expression turned somewhat grim: "A few days ago, several of our companions had an accident, and Wu Yong and the others have yet to find their bodies."

"It may have been eaten by zombies, but it seems that someone heard gunshots, so it's very likely that group of people came looking for it."

Upon hearing this...

Lin Mo couldn't help but frown: "Why didn't you tell me about this sooner?"

Xu Qingluo's expression turned somewhat awkward: "Ahem, I forgot because I was playing games."

"Do you have a grudge against them?"

“I have never offended these people. They probably know I am an Awakened One, so they have been trying to capture me.”

It seems so.

The situation was more serious than I had imagined.

In addition to facing the threat of hordes of zombies, a new group of hostile survivors has emerged, and these people are armed.

The destructive power of firearms.

I've emphasized this many times before; even Lin Mo has to pay attention to this issue.

actually.

Dealing with the horde of corpses in the commercial street and this group of armed survivors wasn't as difficult as I had imagined.

All fear stems from insufficient firepower!

As long as Lin Mo is willing to distribute the weapons in the space, they don't need to wait for the zombie horde to form; they can directly go and wipe out the zombies.

There's absolutely no need to take those survivors seriously.

Although it's unknown where these people got their guns, they probably only had some pistols and shotguns at most, and their equipment couldn't possibly be as sophisticated as his.

But the problem is...

Although I have plenty of firepower, even a bit too much, I can't fully unleash it!

Given the current situation.

If he were to be asked to equip others with firearms, the only people he could trust were Lin Muxue and Lin Meijing. Even Xu Qingluo would have to hesitate a bit.

Needless to say, the others are even less likely to be included.

Seeing that Lin Mo was frowning and not speaking, Xu Qingluo couldn't help but comfort him, "Don't worry too much."

"If all else fails, we can take the supplies and leave first, then come back later and find another place. That way, there won't be any problems."

Let's find a place with a lower zombie density.

Pay attention to the activity of zombies in the vicinity and organize people to go out and clear out zombies every day.

Keep it that way.

As long as no powerful high-level zombies appear, there's no need to worry about a zombie horde forming, and those people might not be able to find them again.

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo simply said, "I will find a way to handle it."

After saying that...

He slowly got up and walked towards the door. Seeing this, Xu Qingluo hurriedly said, "You bad guy, remember to take me with you when you run away."

"Also, don't forget to bring the generator along; you might be able to use it again later!"

After going out.

Lin Mo did not choose to go back. He planned to go to the world of "Boonie Bears" to see if he could find a solution.
