Chapter 572 Five Million Zombies
A few days after the concert, short video apps are becoming increasingly popular.
In the backend, there are more than 200,000 people online almost every day, which shows how popular this software is in the post-apocalyptic world.
To this end, the management also held a short video competition, selecting the top three based on the number of views, likes, and comments. The first place winner was awarded 10,000 points, the second place winner 8,000 points, and the third place winner 5,000 points.
The purpose of this event is to motivate everyone's creative enthusiasm. After all, it's a new platform. Although it has brought in some data from previous short videos, we still need to create new videos so that adults don't run out of things to watch after scrolling through a few.
So when this event came out, a lot of people shot short videos, with one person posting dozens or even hundreds of them, since the event stated that there was no limit on the number.
If you're capable enough, you can even take all three top spots by yourself.
As a result, Ling Ran and the others stayed at home every day, not going anywhere, just watching live streams and scrolling through short videos on their phones.
Previously, everyone had saved up their private savings, which they then exchanged for points and recharged into the app, spending them very generously.
Especially these streamers, they're all incredibly good at flattering others.
Having been through the harsh realities of the apocalypse, everyone is much more willing to let go of their inhibitions, resulting in excellent live stream performances. Of course, another reason might be the relatively lenient censorship standards.
A couple of days ago, Ling Ran even came across a live stream of fairies fighting, but such live streams are ultimately not a good influence, so they were blocked.
That evening, while watching the live stream, Chen Xiaoying suddenly ran in: "Sir, Brother Luo Han is here. He says he has something to discuss with you."
Ling Ran stayed in her room because she was watching short videos. Zhu Zhu was lying at Ling Ran's feet. When she saw Chen Xiaoying come in, she looked up at her and then closed her eyes again.
"Let him in."
"yes."
A short while later, Luo Han arrived, followed by Bai Liuyun, Zhu Chen, and Su Yimo's boyfriend, whose name I think was Bian.
Upon seeing Ling Ran, Luo Han hurriedly said, "My lord, a report has come from the front lines that the Zombie King wants to start a war and is gathering millions of zombies. Could you please come with us to the front lines to keep an eye on the Zombie King? As long as the Zombie King is subdued, we still have a fighting chance against the other zombies."
He was confident because he had enough impurity-free crystal cores; otherwise, Luo Han wouldn't have dared to say that.
With so many zombies, we'll need to use heavy weapons.
"I haven't even dealt with it yet, and it's already back?" Ling Ran put away her phone. "Let's go take a look."
She hasn't even finished her game yet, and this zombie king is really asking for it.
Luo Han was surprised that Ling Ran agreed so easily and said gratefully, "Thank you, sir. This way, please. The car has been arranged."
When Zhuzhu saw Ling Ran get up, she quickly opened her eyes and got up to follow him.
Luo Han was pushed aside by it, so he could only follow behind Zhu Zhu and say, "We used to have an understanding with the Zombie King. Apart from minor skirmishes, we wouldn't go to any big fuss. It must have been the adults' barrier that angered it on the day of the concert, so it gathered the zombies today to teach us a lesson."
The 'peace' with the zombie king was due to the deployment of heavy weapons beforehand; otherwise, the number of people at the Beijing base was no match for the zombie army.
Because the Zombie King could think and knew fear, he did not forcefully occupy the territory of the capital base. Everyone stayed on one side and did not disturb each other.
Seeing Ling Ran leave, the others immediately followed.
Thanks to short videos, no one has been going out lately. Everyone is staying at home glued to their phones. Even Su Yimo hasn't gone out on dates.
These days, Bian Chen comes to the Prince's mansion every day to report for duty, and then the two of them go on dates by scrolling through short videos on their phones.
The car drove very fast, and in less than half an hour, it arrived at the front line.
Layers of defensive walls had already been erected at the cordon, leaving only a few holes through which one could see what was ahead.
On the defensive wall were flying superhumans, each holding a telescope and using the light from the surrounding lights to constantly observe the situation ahead.
Besides them, various drones and helicopters are flying high in the distance.
After Luo Han arrived, he asked, "Has the Zombie King arrived yet?"
"Not yet, but soon. The pilot said that the zombie king has gathered at least five million zombies this time."
"Over five million?!"
Luo Han was shocked: "Zhu Chen, you immediately take some men and drive all the tanks out of the warehouse."
Their Beijing base only has 80,000 superhumans, which is a very high percentage compared to any other base.
It's just 80,000 against 5 million; even with impurity-free crystal cores, there's no chance of winning.
Bai Liuyun's face was also very solemn: "This zombie king is really crazy, Captain Luo, what do we do now?"
"We can only use firearms now, and we're not even guaranteed to win. The only good news is that there are so many zombies that the zombie king can't control them all."
The Zombie King's level should be level eight or nine. Even though the mental abilities of each level after level three are a qualitative improvement, it is impossible for the Zombie King to control five million zombies.
Luo Han stepped forward and quickly checked on the situation of each team: "Have all the traps been set up?"
"It's all set up."
On the other side, Uncle Chen also had Chen Xiaoying lead Zhuzhu to the back row.
Chen Xiaoying was not happy: "Dad, I also want to kill zombies."
"Killing zombies isn't urgent. Pearl doesn't have any special abilities; you just watch over it."
Chen Xiaoying pouted but didn't say anything. Uncle Chen continued, "Zhuzhu is the adults' pet. By protecting it, you are helping the adults. Don't you want to help the adults?"
"No, then I'll keep an eye on Zhuzhu."
"good."
After dealing with Chen Xiaoying, Uncle Chen came to the front line and stood with Pei Xiu and the others.
This is his first major battle since gaining superpowers, and he wants to perform well.
With 80,000 people under his command, Luo Han was constantly moving between the various squads and had no time to attend to Ling Ran and the others.
However, he left Bai Liuyun to accompany Ling Ran. The former stood not far from Ling Ran, occasionally stealing a glance at her, looking as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.
Pei Xiu noticed this scene and subtly moved his feet to block his view.
That creepy guy keeps peeping at his sister.
What a load of crap.
Actually, the others were also excited when they found out that Ling Ran had arrived, but with a major battle ahead, they all had to stick to their posts, so they didn't come up to ask for autographs or photos.
Shen Nianshen didn't pay attention to these things, but stepped forward and said, "Even if the zombie king is controlled by an adult and has firearms, it will still be difficult for us to deal with more than five million zombies, right?"
"That's definitely too many. The old bases couldn't even withstand a horde of tens of thousands of zombies, let alone five million. This is only the Beijing base."
