J City is about 300 to 400 kilometers away from the capital.
It only takes a few hours to drive there.
The heavy weapons vehicle from the capital city arrived at the outer perimeter of the J City security zone in less than half a day.
The safe zone in J City was breached from the inside, but the city's security is still in place. The zombies inside haven't made it outside the safe zone, so only some ordinary zombies have gathered outside.
The heavy weapons vehicles in the capital city have wheels that are taller than a person, and their bodies are bulletproof and very sturdy. Therefore, instead of dealing with the zombies outside the safe zone first, they plan to follow the leadership's instructions to first use missiles to completely destroy the innermost buildings of the J City safe zone, and then use mortars to kill the zombies that escaped from the J City safe zone and the zombies on the periphery of the safe zone one by one.
The medium-sized cars were arranged in order of their positions.
After the scope was aimed at the buildings inside the J City safe zone, the entrance door to the J City safe zone was suddenly opened from the inside.
As we all know, zombies don't open doors.
Just when everyone thought there were still survivors inside, and wondered if they should wait until the survivors came out before launching the missiles, a large number of zombies suddenly poured into the entrance of the safe zone.
These zombies were much faster and stronger than the zombies surrounding them.
Moreover, their purpose was very clear; they went straight for the windshield of the car. The people inside the car even saw these zombies pick up stones from the ground and smash their car windows again and again.
Zombies... they actually use tools? That's not scientific!!!
The people inside the car immediately became agitated; if the smashing continued, their windows would soon be shattered.
Even though He Xiao wasn't much older than these people, as their commander, he quickly calmed down: "Everyone, don't panic. We've all been injected with the zombie virus, so even if we get bitten, we won't turn into zombies. Now listen to my orders: mortar crew, fire directly at the zombies in the distance. The rest of you, grab your guns, get on the roof of the vehicle, and shoot down the zombies around the vehicle to prevent them from crashing into it!"
The professionally trained personnel immediately began to carry out the orders upon receiving them.
These vehicles all had windows on the roof. In each vehicle, one teammate was left behind to fire the cannon, while the rest climbed onto the roof to take guns and shoot the zombies that had climbed onto the windows and crowded on both sides of the vehicle.
In the midst of the fierce battle, a zombie wearing a black collar jumped directly onto the roof of the car.
At their height, zombies wouldn't normally be able to jump up, and the people who fired the shots were somewhat stunned.
Taking advantage of the moment when everyone was stunned, the zombie grabbed the hand of one of the people who had fired the shot and bit him hard.
Fortunately, He Xiao reacted quickly and shot the zombie in the head, causing it to lose its life force and fall off the roof of the car.
The bitten person and everyone on the roof of the vehicle didn't pay much attention to the wound. This was because some of their teammates had been bitten by zombies during missions before, and after receiving vaccines, all signs of zombie transformation had stopped. Therefore, they believed that the wound would not pose any threat to them and continued to attack the zombies under the vehicle from back to back.
But a short while later, the team member who had just been bitten suddenly turned around and hugged a team member behind him, biting the carotid artery in that team member's neck and tearing off a large chunk of flesh. That team member died on the spot.
Only then did everyone realize that people bitten by zombies in J City would turn into zombies even after receiving a vaccine.
He Xiao told everyone that this was no longer their teammate, but a zombie: "Shoot!!"
Normal zombies will simply pounce straight at their prey.
So if you have a gun, you can kill a zombie by shooting it in the head.
However, after his teammate, who was bitten by a zombie in J City, turned into a zombie, he actually dodged their guns. Several shots that were supposed to be aimed at the zombie's head were dodged by it. Moreover, its speed of movement was beyond the range of human perception. Before He Xiao could react, his teammate next to him had already been bitten on the neck.
In an instant, many such fast-reacting zombies suddenly appeared all around. Some climbed onto their vehicles at lightning speed, while others smashed the windows and crawled into the driver's seat.
They didn't even give He Xiao and the others time to react.
He Xiao immediately sensed something was wrong and, just before being bitten, pulled out his phone to call Tang Xin: "Boss, watch out for zombies in J City!!!"
Tang Xin had suspected something was wrong with the zombies in J City before.
She thought He Xiao had discovered something, and was about to ask again when the call was cut off, leaving only a dial tone.
With her keen intuition as a JUN, she sensed something was wrong and immediately went to the Imperial Capital Security Center to have them call the security patrol personnel dispatched to J City.
The security center staff tried calling several times, but to no avail: "No signal."
Tang Xin: "Show me the satellite surveillance footage!!!"
After seeing that several of their armored vehicles had been overrun by zombies, not only the staff but even Tang Xin found it hard to believe. How could their armored vehicles, which were so sturdy, possibly be overrun?
At the same time, Tang Xin also realized the seriousness of the matter.
She immediately swiped her card to go to the second-to-last floor and told the leadership about her discovery. Pointing to her teammate who had turned into a zombie after being bitten, she said, "According to the footage from the satellite, our existing anti-zombie virus vaccine is not effective against the zombies in J City. In addition to being much faster and stronger than ordinary zombies, these zombies in J City also have their own consciousness."
After reviewing the footage Tang Xin brought back, the next-highest level leader asked, "Where are these zombies located now?"
The security center staff who rushed over with Tang Xin answered truthfully: "According to the images we monitored by satellite, these zombies are currently advancing towards the Imperial Capital Safe Zone at an alarming speed. Zombies are creatures that do not experience fatigue, and we initially estimate that they will reach the outskirts of the Safe Zone by tomorrow morning at the latest."
After careful consideration, the top-level leaders made a decision: "Our previously developed zombie virus vaccine is ineffective against these zombies, and their mobility is astonishing. To ensure the safety of the survivors in the safe zone, we remind other safe zones to prepare for defense, notify all personnel in the safe zone to immediately cease work and production, and order all the elderly, weak, sick, disabled, and pregnant women in the safe zone to be transferred to the underground city in advance. All security patrol personnel should immediately take all the heavy weapons in the safe zone and stand by on the outskirts of the safe zone!"
Tang Xin turned and left, saying to the staff on the second-to-top floor as she went, "Arrange for the leaders to enter the underground city as soon as possible."
The top-level leaders, however, said: "Let the elderly, the weak, the sick, the disabled, and pregnant women go into the underground city first. We will stay here and stand guard in the capital city with the soldiers."
Under orders from their superiors, the staff immediately released the information.
Upon receiving the information, the capital's safe zone was thrown into chaos. Schools, hospitals, shopping malls, factories, and restaurants all shut down, and all people over sixty and children under fourteen were forced to seek refuge in the underground city.
Li Jianguo and Yan Ling were responsible for picking up the elderly and children in their area. After arriving at the courtyard, they said to Qiao An'an, "This situation is very dangerous. We must prepare for the best and worst."
Ya Ya tugged at Qiao An'an's clothes: "Mommy, I don't want to be separated from you!"
Qiao An'an put the long sword down and put it back on her back: "Be good, we're only separated temporarily, and Grandpa Gu, Brother Gu Bei, and Sister Xiaoyu are all with you."
