The hundred or so "zombies" are not actually zombies, but rather bioweapons controlled by humans. People bitten by these bioweapons will turn into zombies even if they have received an anti-zombie vaccine.
Upon learning of this result, attendees in security zones across the country fell silent.
This was utterly extinguishing the tiny spark of hope that had just begun to ignite within them.
Seeing the heavy atmosphere, the leaders of the relevant departments in the capital spoke up at the right time: "Although the zombie virus has mutated and made a comeback, we can still see a glimmer of hope. At least we don't have to worry about people who die from the disease turning into zombies. At least our internal security is guaranteed, isn't it?"
That's true.
Even if this mutated virus is powerful, you won't turn into a zombie as long as you're not bitten.
However, the participants from safety zones across the country still had various concerns: "Your capital city has such a strong military force, yet you were forced into air-raid shelters. Our safety zones are even more vulnerable. But we don't have the same strong food reserves as the capital city's air-raid shelters. If we go into the underground air-raid shelters, we'll only have enough food for two months at most."
"Can we only last a month?"
"What should we do if we only have underground civil defense works in our community, but no air-raid shelters at all?"
The attendees took turns comparing their misery on the projected screen in the conference room.
A leader from the relevant department in Beijing made a definitive statement: "Beijing will not stand idly by. We will dispatch security patrol personnel as soon as possible to eliminate these hundred or so virus carriers and end this apocalypse!!!"
Over the past year, relevant departments in Beijing have been leading the fight against the zombie virus in safe zones across the country.
Everyone has great faith in the relevant departments.
After receiving promises from the relevant departments, everyone gained some confidence and left the meeting to make arrangements for their own safety zones.
In order not to discourage other safe zones, leaders of relevant departments in the capital have consistently reported only good news and not bad news.
The food supplies in other safe zones can last for another month or two, and the food reserves in the capital city's safe zone can feed the entire city for ten years. Now that the population of the safe zones has decreased sharply, it is not a problem to feed them for twenty or thirty years. It's just that the destructive power of the zombie wearing the black collar this time far exceeded their expectations.
The incident happened suddenly, and they evacuated in a hurry. They didn't even have time to move the rice, flour, and oil from the granary into the underground air-raid shelter. The compressed biscuits in the air-raid shelter would only be enough for the survivors to eat for about half a month at most.
They are more anxious to resolve the current situation.
This panic also spread to the resettlement area.
Underground space is limited, and even though the population of the capital city has decreased sharply after the apocalypse a year ago, there are still tens of thousands of people.
These people were crammed into a narrow resettlement area, which already gave people a very oppressive feeling. In addition, the food in the air-raid shelter was really not good, and the morale of the people inside quickly crumbled: "I heard that the food in the air-raid shelter is only enough to feed us for fifteen days."
"No way, the outside is completely surrounded by zombies. What will we do in fifteen days?"
"There are no fifteen days! Two days have already passed, so there are only thirteen days left!"
"If I'd known I was going to die anyway, I might as well have stayed on the ground. At least I could have died with a full stomach, right?"
Fearing that things would continue this way, the relevant department leaders immediately summoned all staff members and ordered the communications department to project the movements of the zombies wearing black collars onto the screen in the conference room around the clock. All relevant department staff members were on standby 24 hours a day to discuss countermeasures.
Tang Xin put forward her idea at the meeting: "The art of war says that to catch the thief, you must first catch the king. I think we should go directly to J City, kill the people who are operating these black collars, and take their place."
The leaders of the relevant departments believed that going to J City was too dangerous, and they had already learned their lesson once and did not want to make the same mistake again.
One of the younger men said indignantly, "It's already gotten to this point. We don't need to worry about radiation affecting unrelated survivors after the nuclear explosion. Why not just remotely bomb J City?"
Tang Xin: "First of all, our colleagues in the communications department have just scanned J City with a satellite thermal imager and confirmed that the only person in J City with vital signs is underground. Nuclear weapons cannot kill the person hiding in the air-raid shelter."
Secondly, the pollution from a nuclear explosion can last for as long as 800 years. We are less than 300 kilometers away from J City in a straight line. If J City were to be hit by a nuclear explosion, the capital city would also be affected.
The best solution right now is for our people to find a way to infiltrate the underground air-raid shelter in J City and kill him.
Colleagues in the communications department said that the black collar could not only emit brainwaves to control the injected virus carriers, but it could also locate the injected person's position, and it was also a monitor.
If we send troops to attack J City, the instigator will definitely be able to see the more than one hundred things he created outside the air-raid shelter. He will definitely mobilize those people wearing black collars to go back and protect him.
Once these zombies with black collars leave, our people can clear out the ordinary zombies outside, solve the food problem, repair the safe zone, and resume production.
"Please feel free to make any requests you may have for this operation; all departments will provide full support."
The relevant departments felt that this operation could alleviate the anxiety inside the safe zone, and immediately instructed the communications department to announce that the Imperial Capital patrol personnel were going to J City to deal with the instigator and end the crisis.
The deployment was broadcast live: "Our security patrol personnel are ready to go. We believe they will soon resolve this crisis and restore normal production and life in the safe zone."
The sight of soldiers fully armed boarding low-flying fighter jets in the footage truly reassured everyone in the air-raid shelter.
Just when everyone was expecting security patrols to brave the zombies and fight their way through the hordes of zombies...
Suddenly, the zombies outside the air-raid shelter seemed to come to life and spontaneously formed a human wall. A virus carrier wearing a black collar stepped onto the human wall and jumped directly onto a low-flying fighter jet, smashing its wing.
The fighter jet, caught off guard by this sudden change, lost control and crashed into the surrounding buildings.
A total of ten fighter jets were deployed for this operation. According to everyone's normal thinking, airplanes are the safest in the air. No matter how powerful the zombies are, they cannot fly. Therefore, they maintained a low altitude and constant speed.
This sudden change instantly unsettled the other nine fighter jets, prompting them to prepare to take off and evade.
But the fighter jets hadn't even had a chance to take off yet.
Several other virus carriers wearing black collars climbed onto the surrounding buildings and jumped onto the fighter jets at incredible speed.
These virus carriers wearing black collars perished in a destructive manner, taking down ten fighter jets sent out by the safe zone. The flames projected onto the screen not only destroyed the fighter jets but also scorched the hearts of tens of thousands of survivors in the safe zone below.
The survivors' already low spirits became even more depressed.
Leaders of relevant departments convened another meeting: "If we can't come up with a solution soon, our safe zone will truly be finished!"
