Inside the shelter, Zhou Xindong gazed at Huang Zhao outside the city wall with fascination.
They easily subdued the leader of a provocative settlement and brought him under the command of Dawn City.
It was Huang Zhao's formidable strength that deeply attracted her, Zhou Xindong murmured:
"It's time for Dawn City to expand its territory."
"With tens of thousands of people scattered across this ten-kilometer area, it feels a bit crowded."
Ning Chuxia, standing behind Zhou Xindong, didn't quite understand her feelings and said upon hearing this:
"We haven't even cleared out the zombies within this ten-kilometer radius yet. Isn't it a bit too hasty to expand like this?"
Zhou Xindong smiled, seemingly knowing Ning Chuxia would say that, and answered directly:
"That's because the city lord's actions are too far ahead of their time; he has no idea how strong we are now."
"There are nearly 10,000 people in Dawn City currently on missions to kill zombies, and they kill more than 500,000 zombies every day."
This number is close to the number of zombies killed in the four incineration pits.
Huang Zhao's plan to clear out zombies within a ten-kilometer radius within a month can be completed much earlier.
"With sufficient fuel, if we deploy more people to burn the zombies, the efficiency of killing them will be greatly improved."
"Maybe we can wipe out all the zombies in the entire city!"
At this point, Zhou Xindong couldn't contain himself any longer and shared his thoughts with Huang Zhao through their mental connection.
Upon hearing Zhou Xindong's plan, Huang Zhao was somewhat surprised:
"You wiped out all the zombies in Shanghai in a month? You've got quite the ambition."
At the same time, he began to consider the feasibility of this plan.
Before the apocalypse, Shanghai had a resident and transient population of nearly 30 million.
The number was so enormous that Huang Zhao never even considered eliminating all the zombies in Shanghai.
Now that Huang Zhao heard Zhou Xindong's suggestion, he felt that it might not be a bad idea after all.
Once the large number of zombies roaming the streets of Shanghai are dealt with, the safety of the city's survivors will be greatly guaranteed.
Huang Zhao, who kills a large number of zombies, will receive tens of millions of level zero energy crystals!
How many Level 3 superhumans can be cultivated using these energy crystals?
Huang Zhao's dormant passion seemed to be rekindled.
Huang Zhao spoke in a calm tone as much as possible:
"Give me a complete plan, listing out all the support I need."
"I'll go back and discuss this with you after I've finished dealing with things here!"
In a fit of rage, Huang Zhao killed the level zero zombies in the area where he was located with his mental attack.
The heads of zombies within a hundred-meter radius exploded one after another, creating a spectacular sight.
After quickly placing the remaining fuel storage tanks at the several fuel storage points, Huang Zhao rushed back towards Shuguang City.
Huang Zhao assessed Zhou Xindong's proposed plan and deemed it feasible.
As for the specifics of how to proceed, we can refine the plan once we get back!
......
On the other side, Qin Yi led a team, driving two dump trucks.
Following behind Chiju and his group, they headed towards the Chiyang gathering place.
After leaving the area within ten kilometers of Dawn City, the density of zombies increases sharply.
Zhou Chenghao, the bespectacled man, was seen chatting happily with a blond-haired man on a dump truck.
"So when we came here before, the closer we got to Dawn City, the fewer zombies we saw, because they had all been cleared out?"
Huang Mao and Zhou Chenghao hit it off quite well, and Huang Mao answered easily upon hearing this:
"What's so surprising? We'll clear the roads and restore pre-apocalyptic transportation."
"Furthermore, we will also surround the entire area within a ten-kilometer radius and build a defensive line. Everything within a ten-kilometer radius will be Dawn City's territory!"
Zhou Chenghao was filled with anticipation, thinking that joining Dawn City this time was definitely the right decision!
Leading the way was Red Horse, whose vehicle was a simply modified jeep.
At this moment, he was in the truck bed, clearing away the approaching zombies with two other team members who had awakened elemental abilities.
Each fireball fired by Red Steed could blast a level zero zombie away, and the encrusting flames would then incinerate it into ashes.
They had cleared the route once before they arrived, and there weren't many zombies, so the convoy was relatively safe to travel.
Zhou Chenghao looked at the energy crystal on the ground with some regret, unable to pick it up.
They looked on with some envy at the Dawn City members who had exchanged for the Dragon Scale Armor.
Unfortunately, such full-body armor was still in short supply in Dawn City at that time.
For the time being, it is only supplied to elite hunting teams and other squad leader-level members.
If he had such full-body armor, he would also like to get out of the car and pick up the crystals.
Huang Mao and his men watched Chi Ju lead the way with boredom, then turned around and noticed Zhou Chenghao's gaze.
Having guessed his thoughts, he asked in confusion:
"You're short of energy crystals? That must be because you haven't been killing enough zombies."
Zhou Chenghao's eyes widened, somewhat indignant, and he said quietly:
"It's a pity. Not everyone has such good equipment as you guys, and isn't afraid of getting hurt."
"We still have many members who haven't broken through to level two yet."
The actual situation was even more severe than Zhou Chenghao described. There were quite a few people in the Chiyang settlement, but not many were willing to go out and hunt zombies.
Therefore, the task of clearing out zombies has always been the responsibility of Red Horse, and the number of energy crystals obtained is naturally not large.
The blond-haired man sneered, "Back when we had no protection at all, we were just as daring to fight and kill."
"Anyone who absorbs the energy crystal can kill unevolved zombies as easily as toying with a monkey."
"Are you all cowards from the Red Sun Gathering?"
It takes 20 level 0 crystals to break through from level 0 to level 2, and 220 crystals to break through to level 3.
At this time, Chiju and his group only had one level three ability user and more than ten level two ability users.
Including those who remained in the settlement, the total energy crystals consumed were probably less than a thousand.
In Huang Mao's eyes, this was definitely a case of biting off more than one big fish.
How can we be weak in things like improving our strength and increasing our chances of survival in the apocalypse?
The blond-haired man chuckled, which sounded rather irritating to Zhou Chenghao, but he dared not lay a hand on him.
"So you came to Dawn City just to pick up a free lunch? If you can win, you'll have no worries about food and clothing; if you can't, you'll just admit defeat?"
“All 13 of us are Level 3 ability users. There are nearly a hundred teams like ours in Dawn City.”
"If it weren't for the city lord being so easy to talk to, our small squad could have taken care of you all!"
After his plans were exposed, Zhou Chenghao scratched his head awkwardly and said nothing more.
Ahead, Red Steed, who was clearing away zombies, suddenly warned:
"High-level zombie approaching! Stop the car and be on alert!"
Ahead of the convoy, a gigantic zombie two heads taller than a normal zombie was rapidly approaching.
It is several times faster than a level 0 zombie, making it a level 3 flesh-type zombie.
The convoy stopped, and the zombies swarmed around them, only to be killed by the group from their elevated position.
