Chapter 43 The Best Time
After hearing this, Zhou Mei's pupils shrank, and the smile on her face faded a little. She immediately asked:
"Is this news accurate?"
"Of course, it was sensed by Tongying."
There is no need to hide this, otherwise the Kyoto base would not have wanted to borrow people when it was taking action.
"Okay, thank you for letting me know in advance."
Zhou Mei's expression also became a little serious.
"We have come to your house today to tell you that we have another proposal. I wonder if you are willing to listen to it."
This time it was Lianyi who spoke.
"Of course, Miss Purple Eagle, please go ahead."
Zhou Mei immediately said that they attached great importance to this person's advice.
“The extreme cold weather is a test for the survivors, but it also gives the zombies a chance to upgrade. Just like us psychics, we are most vulnerable during the upgrade process, so this year is the best opportunity for us survivors to kill the zombies.
Sang Sheng even raised a level 5 zombie for the crystal core. Although it was artificial, it also proved that superpowered zombies exist. Not all bases have the strength of the capital base to kill level 5 zombies. In order to avoid this situation, the extreme cold of this year is the best time to eliminate zombies. "
After listening to Lianyi's words, Zhou Mei nodded in agreement. After all, it was related to the development of the base, and all foreseeable dangers should be nipped in the bud.
"We will take the Black Hawk Team's proposal seriously. I will go see the general now."
Zhou Mei is also a person of action. She immediately stood up to meet General Zhou, and happened to meet her eldest brother who came to look for her.
"Sister, I heard that Captain Black Hawk is here."
"Yes, I brought a message. I was just about to report to the general."
"Then I'll go with you."
Zhou Feng said immediately, then nodded to Yingyi and Lianyi, asked the two to sit in the reception room for a while, and then they left in a hurry.
"Purple Eagle, it will be very troublesome to travel in extremely cold weather. We'd better return to the W City base as soon as possible before the coldest weather arrives."
This is what Eagle Wing is most worried about.
"Well, the extremely cold weather has both advantages and disadvantages. At least we won't be chased by zombies, and we can also harvest crystal cores, which are all resources.
As for the extremely cold weather, we are supernatural beings with much stronger physical fitness. We should be able to survive it if we keep warm, and it is best to return in a straight line."
Lianyi thought for a moment and said.
"Well, I have arranged for people to collect coal, firewood, gas cylinders, as well as warm clothes, shoes and hats and other resources to ensure our smooth return."
Before leaving his residence, Eagle Wing had already arranged for people to do these things. Now all that was missing was the crystal core defense shield.
"We came here today not only to tell them that the extreme cold is coming, but also to urge them to put up the protective shield. Once we get it, we can set off."
Ripple whispered.
Half an hour later, the Zhou siblings returned together, followed by two guards. The guards were carrying a huge metal box and placed it in front of Lianyi and Yingyi.
"Captain Eagle Wing, this is an upgraded version of the crystal core shield that can be used to defend the base. There are also two small shields. I should be able to give them to you tomorrow."
Zhou Feng said.
"Thank you very much!"
“You’re welcome. The news you brought is very important. There is a prophet in the army who has predicted the coming of extremely cold weather. We decided to take this opportunity to clear out all the zombies around the Kyoto base.
At the same time, we will inform all survivor bases across the country of this news via satellite, and it would be best if all bases could act together.
In order to motivate this large-scale killing operation, we plan to announce the technology of the crystal core gun. With the crystal core gun, ordinary survivors can not only kill sleeping zombies, but also obtain crystal cores, killing two birds with one stone.
Of course, the origin of the crystal core gun and the specific developers will be signed by the W City Survivor Base. What do you think?"
Zhou Mei’s explanation was more detailed.
"This is a good thing, we naturally support it!"
Eagle Wing nodded immediately.
After finishing the business, Lianyi waved her hand to pick up the box containing the crystal core defense shield on the ground, and returned to her residence with Yingyi.
Now that they have accurate information, they will go back and tell their brothers to get ready to return to the W City base.
The temperature was 35 degrees Celsius during the day and minus 35 degrees Celsius at night for about a month. At midnight on the 31st day, snow began to fall from the sky, and then the snow got heavier and heavier. In just one night, everything was white, and the snow covered the entire world.
Moreover, from that day on, the daytime temperature did not rise again and became minus 35 degrees Celsius, while the night temperature was close to minus 45 degrees Celsius. It was really like freezing water. Even people with special abilities would not go out rashly at night.
The Black Hawk team had already left the Kyoto base and started their journey back to the W city base.
At this time, the team members were hiding in a villa. Although there was nothing inside, fortunately the doors and windows were not damaged. They found this place before the sun set, quickly closed the doors and windows, lit a fire to keep warm, and started cooking dinner.
"Tsk, why is it getting colder day by day?"
Sun Wang muttered.
"The extreme cold weather has begun. Haven't you noticed that the zombies are moving slower and slower? The low-level ones are completely frozen."
Tu Ying on the side continued.
"Indeed, the crystal cores I collected these days are several times more than before."
Sun Wang said happily.
"If the temperature drops further, the zombies will completely lose their ability to move. Then we can go to the occupied city center and get some crystal cores of mutant zombies."
Tu Ying is very idealistic and has already begun planning to collect the crystal cores of mutant zombies.
"There's no rush for this. We have to listen to the arrangements of my sister and Sister Lianyi."
Sun Wang immediately said that going to the city center was very risky and they must be fully prepared.
"That's for sure."
As the smell of spicy hot soup wafted over, the two immediately stopped talking and began to move towards the rice pot in the middle.
After taking a bowl of spicy soup, everyone immediately felt warmed up. With the addition of hot pancakes, the blood in their bodies began to flow again, making everyone sigh in comfort.
In order to return to W City as quickly as possible, they basically walked in a straight line, which meant they had to pass through some fallen cities. As a result, they basically rested during the day and traveled at night, killing zombies to obtain crystal cores.
If they fight the zombies head-on during the day, they have no chance of winning. They can only wait until the sun sets, the temperature drops sharply, and the zombies lose their ability to move. That's when they can harvest the crystal cores.
They waited until the temperature stopped rising during the day before they readjusted to traveling and killing zombies during the day and resting at night. So far, the journey has been relatively smooth and they have already covered one-third of the distance.
The next stop is a big city, City C. They plan to go deep into the city center, look for a batch of supplies, and see if they can hunt down another batch of mutant zombies. Generally, in such a big city, the probability of mutant zombies appearing is higher.
