Chapter 99 99 Thick fog again
Mao Wan shuddered subconsciously. She had heard of Rong Deju before. Her father had even suggested that she marry Rong Deju's son. Her father had said that the development prospects of W City were better than N City, and that W City was a one-man show. Rong Deju had the final say in everything. Rong Deju had many mistresses, but so far he only had one son, Rong Dazhi. He didn't even have many daughters, which showed how precious he was. In the future, everything in W City would belong to Rong Dazhi. Therefore, marrying Rong Dazhi would not only bring unlimited benefits, but also make her father the top leader of N City, or even the only one.
At first she had fantasized about being high and mighty, but now seeing him in person, her fantasy was instantly shattered. No, no, no, she absolutely did not want to marry a pig. She would go back and ask her father to cancel the engagement.
Silently, he wiped some dust on the ground and smeared it on his face, silently saying, "You can't see me, you can't see me."
While feeding Lebao, Lan Shiruo recalled that she had heard of Rong Deju. It seemed that the man surnamed Mao was the one who teamed up with Rong Deju to badly harm Wei Xiong. Later, for some reason, Mao and Rong suddenly fell out, and Wei Xiong finally made a comeback.
As for why Mao and Rong joined forces, it seems to be related to their children's marriages.
He glanced at Mao Wanru and saw all her reactions. The marriage should be settled, but Mao Wanru obviously looked down on the fat pig. With her personality, it was only a matter of time before they had a falling out.
The girls had been in City B for a long time and didn't know much about the outside world, so they were completely unfamiliar with the W City Rong Dazhi mentioned. The men were similarly trapped in the desert, seeing even fewer people and hearing even less. However, judging by the envious and jealous expressions of those around them, they knew this pig was a good person, and W City was also a good place, a big piece of fat meat.
City W is indeed good. Whether in terms of geographical location or business strategy, it is better than City N. Before the end of the world, City W was an important strategic base. If City W were not too far away, most people here would consider going to City W.
No matter how much they complained, the smoke of war had been nipped in the bud. Those who tried to take advantage of the situation and fish in troubled waters, after a moment of regret, stayed quietly in their own territory and waited for dawn.
As the night deepened, the watchmen noticed that fog had risen.
The inexplicable fog is bound to attract attention.
Xia Xun and Ding Yibing were the ones who kept watch during the first half of the night for the large team. After some confusion, they hurried to find Feng Tao.
Feng Tao was half asleep and half awake. He was in a bad mood when he was woken up. He glared at them, and the two of them were very nervous. "No, no, no, Brother Tao, don't be angry. We just want to ask, did you accidentally release the fog?"
The other men also woke up. After hearing the questions, they realized something was wrong and looked at Feng Tao.
Feng Tao was stunned. "No, I didn't put out the fog. Could it be someone else?"
Ao Chengyi frowned, "This fog is very similar to the one last night. Taozi, are you sure the fog will dissipate after you kill the owl?"
"Sure. Where we fought, the fog was so thick I couldn't see even after poking my hands in my eyes. I tore that thing in half and the fog cleared."
Ao Chengyi raised an eyebrow. They had always thought that the fog was caused by an owl, but now it seemed that was not the case. "Wake up everyone, be prepared, and be vigilant."
"It's Big Brother."
The girls were woken up and armed, and stayed in the car for the time being and were not allowed to get out unless absolutely necessary.
It was foggy, so Xia Xun couldn't see. He Lian could only listen. He stretched out his ears and listened for a full ten minutes. Suddenly, his face changed drastically. "A large number of corpses are approaching quickly."
"How many?"
Even at night, one could see He Lian's pale face. "There are a lot of them, hundreds and thousands. They're very fast. I think they're even faster than the secondary mutated corpses we've seen. They'll be here in five minutes at most."
Lan Shiruo pursed her lips. There were a lot of strangers gathered here. Maybe they came here looking for something to eat. She turned to look at Ao Chengyi and said, "We have to cooperate."
Ao Chengyi nodded and took Lu Chaoyang with him to move through the crowd.
Some people believed it, some didn't. Regardless of whether they believed it or not, Lan Shiruo directed her friends to push all the abandoned vehicles to the entrance as the first line of defense, and then piled all the things in the service area in the middle as the second line of defense. Those with weak combat effectiveness retreated into the service area, checked all doors and windows, and guarded the last line of defense.
Seeing their friends busy and enthusiastic, most people joined in. Strength lies in numbers. At this moment, no matter how many thoughts they had, it was not as important as staying alive. Most of them were psychics, with much greater strength and speed than ordinary people, and their work efficiency was much higher.
Five minutes later, even in the thick fog, a dark mass could be seen, rapidly approaching. "Fight." Ao Chengyi distributed some of the charge to other people who looked friendly. There were some in the fat man's team, and there were also some in the other two teams that looked particularly powerful. Some were fighting and guarded the first barrier.
For a while, there was a constant sound of "bang bang", and countless corpses fell down. Some of them only had broken arms and legs, and had not lost their ability to attack. However, the corpses behind them rushed up, and those who fell down without time to stand up were all pressed to the bottom. They couldn't overturn the ones on top for a long time, and became very angry.
The first line of defense allowed many people to find loopholes, and the second line of defense was composed of skilled soldiers who brandished their weapons and started killing people. The scene was magnificent for a while.
But the fog is so thick that it is easy to accidentally hurt one's own people.
The girls were placed at the third line of defense by the men. They could not see the situation in front of them clearly. They could only hear the roars of the corpses and the roars of humans, as well as a lot of screams. Their brows were tightly furrowed.
"What on earth is this fog?" Xia Xun and Ding Yibing, as the weak ones, were assigned to the third line of defense. They were shaking all over, holding their weapons in their hands.
The girls remained silent; they didn't know what it was. Lan Shiruo couldn't think of anything connected to the fog. The owl was dead, but the fog still appeared, so it had nothing to do with it. If it was a strange thing at the gas station, then this place wasn't close to the gas station, so it couldn't possibly be there. And wouldn't two places have the same strange thing?
I couldn't figure it out for a moment, so I could only concentrate on the battlefield.
Ao Chengyi left the general and the hawk with Lan Shiruo, with only one mission: to keep her safe. Lan Shiruo subconsciously stroked the fur of the mastiff and the hawk. Lebao had been taken into the space. Mao Wanru and Niuniu were staying in a lounge in the service area. There were many old, weak, women and children who had no fighting ability. Fatty was one of them. He was weak.
The fat man no longer had the mighty and domineering attitude he had at the beginning. He huddled in the corner, trembling even more violently than the young wife.
While Mao Wanru was disgusted, she tried to minimize her presence, making sure she wouldn't be noticed by the fat guy. What should she do if she was so beautiful and the fat guy insisted on marrying her?
Fatty, he’s not blind despite his cold face.
The battle continued. A few zombies broke through the second line of defense and were dealt with by the people guarding the third line. Nothing unexpected happened for the time being.
As women who can fight, girls are still treated preferentially and are protected behind men who are not so good at fighting.
In response to this, the girls just pouted. Although they were a little unhappy about being looked down upon, they were happy to have some free time.
