Staff Officer Li stepped forward and said admiringly, "Ms. Yun, I will have to rely on you and your companions when dealing with other mutation crises in the future."
Yun Yuan hugged the ragdoll cat and said, "Colonel Li, you're too kind. Protecting the base is the responsibility of every one of us." Perhaps in the future we can form a more powerful army of mutant creatures.
Helian Lan followed Commander Helian out of the fighter plane, and everyone saluted.
Commander Helian said, "It was a dangerous day today, but thankfully everyone worked together, especially Section Chief Yun, who led the mutants in combat and made great contributions. We must thank Ms. Yun."
Everyone said sincerely: "Thank you, Ms. Yun!"
Commander Helian intended to improve Yun Yuan's treatment at the base, but Yun Yuan declined. The base was in trouble now, but she, on the other hand, had everything she needed.
Following this incident, in addition to the Operations Department, there was another department in the base to seize Yun Yuan, that is, the Security Department.
……………………
1,500 kilometers away in City A, the Dawn Base was also attacked by mutant birds.
Seeing that they could not resist the mutant birds, Hou Xuan and Su Qing made a prompt decision and sacrificed some ordinary people who had no special powers and no relatives with special powers.
Screams rang out one after another.
The remaining ordinary people who witnessed this scene felt deeply the fear of "the lips and teeth are cold if they are gone". They were all scared and turned pale, fearing that they would be the next one to be pushed out.
Finally, after the noise outside subsided, Su Qing dared to open the door carefully.
What hit me in the face was the sickening smell of blood.
The ground was covered with glaring scarlet blood, and the empty eye sockets of some skulls that had not been completely eaten were staring straight ahead, looking extremely terrifying.
Su Qing felt her gastric juice rising up and she almost couldn't help vomiting.
Hou Xuan frowned as he looked at the scene, suppressed his inner discomfort, and had people throw the debris out to feed the zombies.
After eighteen days of hard work, his base absorbed a new group of people. Now there are more than two thousand people in total, including 400 people with special abilities.
During the fifteen days of rain, the base had very few supplies left because people could not go out to collect them. Even the canned herrings that Su Qing collected were distributed to the survivors.
Everyone was eating and vomiting at the same time. For them, it was either eat or die, there was no choice.
"Chief, shall we go collect supplies today?" The speaker was one of the psychics, He?.
"Let's go." Hou Xuan said firmly, "We're going to the food factory in the South District today."
Su Qing said worriedly, "Judging from the mutant birds' significant advancement, the zombies must have also greatly increased in strength. We must be careful when we go out and bring a few more people with us."
Hou Xuan said unconcernedly, "What's there to be afraid of? My lightning ability has already reached the third level. The zombies will just be food. Besides, it's a good thing if the zombies advance. When they advance, we can get higher-level zombie crystal cores to absorb."
Seeing Hou Xuan so confident, Su Qing felt relieved, as she had been worried about the mutant bird attack.
She exhaled a breath of foul air. "You're right. My ice ability has also reached the second level. I can still help you a little. Fighting the zombies together with you won't be a problem."
The team was assembled quickly. Hou Xuan said there was no need to be afraid, but he assembled fifty people with special abilities.
As soon as they left the base, they encountered zombies.
"You've come just in time, brothers. Come with me to dig out the zombie's crystal core!"
Hou Xuan jumped out of the car first. He originally thought that the zombies were easy to deal with, so he was very calm at first, but he became more and more frightened as he fought.
"What's going on? How come these zombies are so fast and can even attack with their minds?"
Su Qing covered her head in pain and said, "Zombies also have special abilities. This is the result of their advancement. In the future, zombies will become more and more agile, and it will become more and more difficult for us to deal with them."
The team of superpowers only has fifty people, but the zombie team seems endless.
After a fierce fight, Hou Xuan saw that the situation was not good and shouted loudly: "Get in the car! Run!"
So everyone jumped into the car and drove away, leaving the zombies chasing after them.
He looked at the scratch on his arm, then looked at the gloomy sky outside, feeling heavy in his heart.
"The living environment is getting worse and worse. Why don't we seek refuge with the military?"
Hou Xuan's expression suddenly turned cold: "This is an extraordinary period. Even the military cannot guarantee protection for everyone."
Su Qing recalled the situation in her previous life and agreed, "Yes, there are many people going to the military area, and the military area needs to consume a huge amount of supplies every day. The number of people is increasing, and no matter how much food there is, it will run out one day. In the end, unrest will definitely break out, and those people may not have it any better than us."
Hou Xuan nodded in agreement. "The soldier who came to transfer the survivors half a month ago said that S Base doesn't encourage actively harming zombies. If we go to S Base, we won't be able to fight zombies. How will we level up in the future?"
"That's right. Don't you want to become stronger?" Su Qing looked at He Xi. "We have enough food and clothes now. If we go to S Base, we might live worse than the ordinary people in our base."
"Instead of being kept in captivity and relying on the little money allocated by those above to make a living, it is better to take the initiative to fight for a bright future."
"No one knows when the apocalypse will end. Right now, the fate of the world is uncertain. You and I are both dark horses. We can definitely build the largest base in the apocalypse, and let future generations use our era!"
He? He seemed to be hesitant to speak.
He understood the leader's ambitions, but the Dawn Base also relied on distribution to survive, so there was no need to step on one and praise the other, right?
Hou Xuan said: "You are quite capable. I will make you a general when you return."
He immediately had no objection, "I will support the leader till death!"
The car drove for a while and suddenly stopped. Hou Xuan asked the car ahead: "What's going on? Why aren't you moving?"
The driver in front said, "Boss, the road is blocked by an abandoned car. We can't get through."
Hou Xuan said as a matter of course: "Then go down and clear the road."
However, after he finished speaking, no one with special abilities got off the bus for a long time.
"Why aren't you moving?"
"Boss, there are zombies outside." They all knew that the zombies were difficult to deal with, and no one wanted to go out to clear the road.
"Are you afraid to go out because of the zombies?" Hou Xuan was furious. "Are you really that afraid of death?"
Nonsense, if you are not afraid of death, go and clean it up yourself!
The Dawn Base was established after the end of the world, and it has only been around for a month. Due to the short time we have been together, everyone is unfamiliar with each other and lacks in-depth understanding and trust.
The discipline here is not as strict as that of the army. When encountering danger, everyone prefers to protect themselves rather than fight together. No one has the courage to sacrifice themselves.
