Chapter 427: Rebellion
On the afternoon of the day when the registration was closed, all the people with special abilities were divided into groups according to their respective teams, and a meeting was held to notify the areas that each team was responsible for.
At eight o'clock in the morning, when it was bright, ten thousand psychics gathered in the square. The next thing that appeared in sight was the weapon vehicle that had not been seen since the zombie war at the base last year.
In addition to the eight tanks, there are also fully armed combat vehicles, armored vehicles and modified missile vehicles that have never been seen before.
Just looking from the outside, the surroundings are completely sealed. A psychic wanted to investigate immediately, but his mental power disappeared when it came into contact with the car. It was obvious that there was a shielding device inside. No one knew how many people were inside and what devices they had.
There were tanks in the front and back, with hundreds of military transport trucks in the middle, parked neatly on one side of the road. The drivers were wearing military uniforms and standing next to the vehicles with rifles slung over their shoulders. The momentum alone was enough to inspire people.
"Reporting to the base commander, there are exactly 10,000 people who are supposed to be here, and there are actually 10,000 people. The report is completed, please give instructions." Wu Yue, as the person in charge of coordinating arrangements, came early to count the people and sign in.
Lu Weiyi took the sign-in sheet and put it away, then looked at all the people standing in teams in the square, "I am the person in charge of this team. If you encounter any problems or difficulties in the next period of time, you can come to me. I hope we can cooperate closely like we did last winter. I am with you, and you are with the base."
"Now, everyone, get on the bus and set off according to your respective teams."
"Let's go!" Wu Yue's shout resounded throughout the square, and everyone immediately ran towards the trucks that had been assigned in advance. After a while, the cars slowly drove out of the base.
In the rustling wind and snow, Lu Weiyi stood on the roof of the car and looked back. He could see the sentry post on top of the base entrance. It seemed that Zhuang Mingxu was standing there. The whistling cold wind with snowflakes blocked his view. A figure did not move for a long time. Lu Weiyi had a bad thought in his mind.
"Is there any problem with your grouping this time?" Lu Weiyi asked Wu Yue.
"No, Mingxu Ningyuan and I have discussed this. Almost all the closely related teams are scattered on both sides, leaving them no chance to cooperate. What's wrong?"
Lu Weiyi shook his head. Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. Saying that he has a bad premonition at this time will only affect people's hearts. "What about the contact with the base?"
"We've been in touch. Don't worry. There are enough people left, so nothing will happen," Wu Yue comforted.
Lu Weiyi took a deep breath and calmed his mind.
The car drove day and night for three days, and they directly entered the central area of Pingjin City, which was beyond the usual cleaning range of the base. The zombies gradually began to chase the car, and before the psychics could take action, they were killed by the accompanying soldiers with weapons.
After a while, the whole fleet of cars drove into a building surrounded by high walls. At some point, the earth-type psychics had built dozens of meters high walls within a one-kilometer radius. The circular walls wrapped the inside tightly. After entering, the earth-type psychics sealed the entrance.
As soon as the psychics got off the bus, they saw that many soldiers were already stationed here. They had tidied up the place neatly and used ten five-story buildings as a temporary resting place. When they got off the bus, someone immediately came forward to take everyone to rest according to their bus numbers.
That night, Wu Yue assigned tasks to the ten temporary team leaders, and the first thing distributed was 10,000 shielding devices.
The people from the Frost Society and COFCO had already used it, and they skillfully stuck it on themselves, while the other teams were whispering to each other out of curiosity.
"Captain Wu, when I came here, I saw that all the surrounding buildings had been wiped out. Are we going to use this place as the main battlefield?" Yu Mengchu, the deputy captain of the Frost Society, was more concerned about the upcoming battle. After all, it was a matter of life and death.
"Yes, the old way, let the zombies come to us." Wu Yue spread a map on the desk and motioned for everyone to look. "Our investigators have already investigated the distribution of zombies in the surrounding areas. Currently, the zombies in Pingjin City are mainly distributed in the western part of the city center."
"The dividing line between our Pingjin base and Jianshe North Road is that the area north is their responsibility, and the area south is our responsibility."
"What if a zombie crosses the dividing line?" a middle-aged man suddenly asked.
As soon as Lu Weiyi looked over, Ye Jia, who was sitting next to him, immediately whispered, "That's a team that just arrived this year, called the Miracle Team. The captain, He Song, used to be the village chief. They were residents of the same town before. They are relatively united and their strength is just okay."
"Why do you know so much when we are both captains?" Lu Weiyi looked at him.
"Mine is just a small stall. It doesn't have as many things to worry about as you do in the entire base. Now that the supplies from the outside world are decreasing, our Ice Frost Society is planning to transform into a business. We have to know a little about the base's affairs," Ye Jia said with a smile and flattered him.
Over there, Wu Yue had already answered the other party's question, "An earth-type mutant has built a high wall to block off Jianshe North Road."
“Of course there is no guarantee that a jailbreak won’t happen. If it does happen, it won’t be any loss to us,” Wu Yue said, looking at everyone. “This time, the various bases are joining forces to hunt zombies with the goal of conducting a large-scale cleanup. This may be a way for each team to obtain a large number of crystal cores.”
“That’s true. There will be fewer zombies in the future. If we want to obtain crystal cores, we might have to fight for them when we encounter zombies,” Ye Jia laughed and cooperated.
Everyone in the conference room laughed as Wu Yue assigned all the teams to a circle of high-walled areas. The front-line support was arranged very neatly, even the locations of supplies and the treatment system were all arranged.
That night, all the teams were on standby at the high wall. In less than an hour, the sound of cars could be heard from all directions, along with the howling of zombies.
In the third year of the apocalypse, the level of zombies has become increasingly higher, and it is common to encounter an S-level zombie when going out.
It is a difficult task for other bases, but it is not a big deal for the teams in Yueban Bay. With the help of the supernatural jammer, the teams below can bring back high-level crystal cores from time to time, which makes the new teams envious.
This difference in treatment was also one of the reasons why the teams below were so impetuous. Lu Weiyi was aware of this, but the previous teams had stood with them from the very beginning. It would be even more disheartening if there was no difference at all.
Occasionally, SS-level zombies appeared, but they did not retreat. Lu Weiyi would lead the armed team to attack directly. His superpowers were also growing, but it was not enough to deal with them relying solely on superpowers.
Fortunately, Academician Zhao Changming is a talented person. For the sake of his daughter's good treatment, he once again broke through the limit and strengthened the power of the crystal core shells. Now they can play a major role on the battlefield.
The battle continued day and night here. Armored vehicles reinforced by metal-type psychics shuttled back and forth to the central area, constantly attracting zombies. Soon the area below became littered with corpses, and were burned to ashes by fire-type psychics, eventually becoming crystal cores that covered the ground.
The sparkling crystal cores gave everyone the greatest encouragement. Thinking that these crystal cores would be transformed into purification crystal cores to help them upgrade, the team of psychics became more motivated.
Some people even took the initiative to suggest that they could just take four hours of rest every day, as their physical strength and supernatural powers were enough to support them to continue fighting.
This proposal was passed unanimously by the psychics, and it was the first time that Lu Weiyi discovered that interests could be so effective.
I don’t know if Lu Weiyi’s previous warning was effective, but nothing happened when the base was fighting against the zombies, whether it was the team of psychics that went out or the people who stayed behind.
When the temperature dropped to below zero in the severe winter, the sea around the base froze again. In the base, Zhuang Mingxu and the water-based mutants rebuilt the ice wall.
According to the plan, Ning Yuan and his team were to lead the final zombie cleanup in winter, but Zhuang Mingxu suddenly suggested increasing the time and manpower investment to do a final comprehensive cleanup to provide more security for the collection team to go out after the spring. Lu Weiyi, who had just returned, became the person in charge again.
On the day of the gathering, Zhuang Mingxu was particularly clingy. He pulled Lu Weiyi for a long time early in the morning. When he saw that the gathering time had passed, he hurriedly took a packed breakfast and sent him to the car.
Those who were going to set out had already gathered, and it seemed like they were just waiting for him. For the first time, Lu Weiyi felt embarrassed.
Zhuang Mingxu, on the other hand, did not feel embarrassed at all, and explained in a dignified manner while holding a loudspeaker, "For the safety of all teams collecting supplies after the spring, Base Commander Lu and I have temporarily decided to put all the heavy weapons of the base into this zombie-clearing operation. We have cleared out all the zombies in the half of the city near us. I hope that everyone can have a richer harvest in the spring with fewer casualties."
As soon as he finished speaking, another row of tanks drove towards this side from the direction of South Island. The total number of these chaotic vehicles was at least more than ten.
Lu Weiyi didn't know about this in advance. Just as he was about to ask, he was pushed into the car by Zhuang Mingxu amid the cheers of people around him.
When the huge convoy had traveled halfway, Lu Weiyi called a meeting and discovered that the personnel had been adjusted.
The people from the Ping An team were withdrawn, while those from the Frost Club and the COFCO team who had never registered were sent up instead.
"What happened to the people from the Ping An team?" Lu Weiyi asked.
"You don't know?" Ye Jia was sucking on a popsicle in the minus-degree temperature, his breath was all white mist. When he heard the question, he looked over in surprise.
Seeing that Lu Weiyi looked confused and didn't seem to be asking a question he already knew the answer to, he carefully replied, "I heard that a few days ago, the son of the captain of the Ping An team got drunk and bumped into the captain of the village."
He rubbed his nose to hide his embarrassment. "He said I was a gigolo and sold myself for a position or something. Anyway, what he said was pretty unpleasant. There were so many people at the time, and many people heard it. Captain Zhuang turned hostile on the spot and said he would make him pay the price, and then..."
He carefully observed Lu Weiyi's gloomy expression and said, "Our team received a new roster last night."
"We also received the list yesterday," said Chen Xing from the COFCO team.
