Chapter 91: Mutated Zombies
Zhao Yunduo was also scared enough just now. If the zombie grabbed the right wing of the plane and damaged the plane, or climbed to the window and injured the people nearby, it would be a loss.
And its palm obviously shook the plane. If it was a human, the plane wouldn't even shake. It seems that it has considerable strength and should not be underestimated.
After circumventing the zombie's attack, she quickly turned the plane around, wanting to go back and see what made that zombie different from the others. But she didn't expect that the zombie had already returned to the zombie tide, and it was difficult to see with the naked eye which zombie had just attacked them. All the zombies looked almost the same, with tattered clothes and rotten bodies.
Trying to find the last zombie among a crowd of zombies with the naked eye is like trying to find a drop of rain in the ocean.
If you can't see clearly, you can only use weapons to find it.
Everyone on the plane, including the injured Liang Tuan Tuan, picked up their submachine guns and kept shooting downwards.
Maybe because the plane was flying too high and the zombie couldn't reach them, no zombies were seen jumping up again. No zombies even raised their heads, they were numbly swaying back and forth attracted by the gunshots.
In a hail of bullets, zombies fell one after another. Where the zombie had just appeared, there was no zombie standing anymore.
"Is it dead?"
“He should be dead.”
A trembling voice came from the plane. It was obvious that everyone was frightened just now.
"I've never heard of a zombie jumping before..."
"The speed is almost the same as that of humans."
But based on its speed and the fact that the jump just now did not attract any other zombies to attack it, it can be confirmed that the zombie is not an ordinary zombie.
What is more terrifying than speed and strength is that the zombies clearly know the function of the plane and that there are humans inside.
They probably knew that the bullets fired were dangerous items, so they wanted to pull them out of the safe plane so that they could become new zombies in the zombie tide.
Zhao Yunduo asked the people in the cabin hesitantly, "Do zombies have intelligence?"
Liang Yuanyuan, who was sitting in the co-pilot seat, shook her head and said, "My brother and I don't go on many missions, and the zombies we see every time are always the same. I've never heard my father mention this before. He did say that zombies can only hear, smell, and see, but can't think."
Liang Tuantuan nodded to indicate that what she wanted to say was the same as her sister.
Among the people present, the one who had been on the mission the most was Wu An. He clenched his right fist and put it to his lips. He thought seriously and said, "I have never seen an intelligent zombie. They can't even run, let alone jump."
Zhou Micheng, who was caught in the zombie tide himself, also said, "They are more like insects. They can only crawl with their legs. All their movements are based on instinct. They don't seem like thinking creatures."
Since the zombies have not had any intelligence in the past five years, it means that something has caused the zombies to mutate in the past five years.
Zhao Yunduo flew the plane to the front of the zombie tide. They shot and killed many zombies along the way, but no matter how they observed, they did not see any unusual zombies.
It seems that there is probably only one mutant zombie.
If the sweep along the way does not kill it, the number of the zombie tide will not be the biggest problem. The biggest difficulty should be an intelligent zombie that actively attacks humans and hides itself among the zombies.
Since the mutant zombies could not be found and the sun was slowly setting, Zhao Yunduo changed direction and steered the plane towards the school from which they came.
After the plane flew away, a zombie in the group of zombies stood up straight. It was actually a head taller than the other zombies. It raised its head and let out a low growl. The zombies that were originally wandering around in a daze came towards it one after another.
Then the zombie raised its feet and walked straight in the direction the plane had taken off.
The zombie tide that was originally heading north changed direction slightly and followed the zombie's footsteps in unison.
The plane, which had long since lost sight of the zombie tide, circled over the school for a while, then changed direction and flew eastward.
"Huh? Aren't we going back to that school?"
Kong Liang asked.
Zhao Yunduo intuitively felt that they did not kill the mutant zombie. If that was the case, the direction of the plane would definitely attract the mutant zombie's attention.
This direction is nothing more than a decoy. Zhao Yunduo shook his head and said, "Let's find another place to stay."
She remembered that the land to the east was fertile and might be suitable for living. But she didn't expect to see a base after driving for a while.
The base was very close to the sea and there were not many people there. Looking from the sky, the entire base was not much bigger than the size of a palm. Judging from the number of houses, the population was less than two or three hundred people.
"That's the P City base."
Wu An had heard of this base. He had met people from City P during his mission. He knew that they survived by eating seafood and had built an ice cellar underground to store a lot of food. The population was smaller than other bases, so they had never had to worry about food and clothing. He was also the least concerned about K's mission among the several bases.
"P City Base?"
This is a base that Zhao Yunduo has never heard of. Not to mention her, even Zhou Micheng doesn't know about it.
"Well, the P City base is said to be the first base to know about the zombie outbreak before the apocalypse. So they have many executives, wealthy people and their children living there. They stockpiled a lot of things before the apocalypse, with abundant supplies, guns and ammunition. But their base never accepts outsiders, and its defense is also very strong."
Wu An's family was originally qualified to live there, but Mr. Wu seemed to dislike them and refused to accept their invitation.
The movement of the plane attracted the attention of the people in the P City base. There was a man holding a telescope on the high wall looking at them. After Zhao Yunduo slowed down the plane, he waved to the man with interest.
The co-pilot Liang Yuanyuan also looked at the man through a telescope.
"A short haircut, a round head, very tall, with a gun on his waist. There is a man and a woman downstairs, who look like security guards. Hey, there is even an amusement park in the base..."
Liang Yuanyuan talked about a garden, a swimming pool, a generator, a water storage tank, and solar panels...
She was astonished that they had been so well prepared before the apocalypse and were still able to maintain such a high standard of life in the fifth year of the apocalypse.
Zhao Yunduo was a little confused, but she was just curious. She did not stop, but resumed speed and steered the plane to the south.
