Chapter 70 Hatching Little Zombies 12 (Update 2) Liar...
070 Hatching Little Zombie 12
In the dark night, the whole block fell into silence.
The sparrow landed on an old tree at the corner of the alley, tilting its head to watch an off-road vehicle swaying below.
…
An hour later, the sound of wheels rolling over the ground could be heard in the distance.
At the same time, there were strange collision sounds in the air, and dangerous air currents surged throughout the entire block.
Inside the off-road vehicle.
Lu Jiu rolled off He Lin and sat in the passenger seat.
They both quickly put on their clothes and pants.
Lu Jiu bent down and picked up the box of cigarettes and the lighter that had fallen to the ground from under He Lin's feet.
He took out a cigarette, held it between his lips, lit it, exhaled a puff of smoke, and squinted his eyes and asked, "Have Brother Jiang and the others arrived?"
The voice is still a little hoarse.
He Lin just picked up his phone, which showed a message from Zhang Mu: "I saw them."
He glanced at Lu Jiu meaningfully.
There were beads of glistening sweat on the young man's neck, and his black hair was also a little wet with sweat. Originally only his cheeks were red on his fair skin, but now his entire body was red, looking gorgeous and gorgeous.
If the timing wasn't special, it would never be done in one go.
He Lin threw the phone to Lu Jiu, started the car, put his hands on the steering wheel, and said with a smile: "Let's go."
Five SUVs drove out of the alley at the same time.
Three hundred meters away, I saw an SUV speeding towards me in a crooked manner, and on both sides and behind the car... there were a large number of zombies following it.
Some of these zombies were staggering on the road, while some were climbing between the buildings on both sides like Spider-Man!
The bang-bang-bang sounds are the sounds made by their hands and feet stepping hard on the walls of the building.
At one point, one of the zombies jumped up and flew straight towards the SUV.
The SUV slammed on the brakes to avoid the mid-air attack, then immediately stepped on the accelerator and crashed into the zombie!
The zombie was extremely strong, and even with such an impact, it was not torn into pieces!
It rolled on the ground, screamed, bounced off on the spot, and climbed up to the building next to it again. It stared at the SUV while climbing up the wall at a high speed.
Five off-road vehicles drove in front of the road. Lu Jiu looked back and saw this scene, frowning and said: "——Is it the original strain?!"
The original strain is the first strain that appeared to the world after the zombie virus outbreak.
Its ability to infect is weaker than all the mutant strains that appeared later, but the zombie species formed after infecting humans is extremely ferocious - they can bounce at high amplitudes, can climb on vertical walls, walls of any material will do, and are difficult to kill.
A year ago, Lu Jiu was attacked by the original strain of zombies while on a mission.
The most important thing is that the original strain of zombies will attract other mutant strains!
"Damn it!" Zhao Lushan in front cursed, "Why are they entangled by the original strain!"
Everyone took out their guns and leaned out of the car windows, shooting the zombies while driving at high speed.
The original strains are too difficult to hit. They are sharp and agile, and they know how to dodge the bullet halfway through the flight.
They can only try their best to get rid of the ordinary zombies that were attracted behind the SUV first!
Soon, the SUV drove up and entered the middle of their convoy.
He Ying was driving, Jiang Wen was sitting in the passenger seat, and the doctor they picked up was sitting in the back seat.
While shooting the zombies, Jiang Wen said, "I'm running out of bullets!"
In the SUV running parallel to his right, Zhang Mu threw a gun over without even looking back.
Jiang Wen stretched his hand out of the window, caught the gun steadily, and continued to shoot at the back, explaining: "We were targeted by these primitive strains one kilometer away. They are too difficult to deal with. We can't get rid of them at all!"
Zhang Mu said to his subordinates: "Contact Brother Xu and ask him to be ready to open the gate of the base at any time!"
"yes!"
In the SUV, He Ying shouted while driving: "Lao Li, your potion is really not enough?"
Lao Li is the doctor in the back seat.
He said, "It's really not enough! It's just the size of a fingernail. If you want to use it, you can't use it now. You have to find the right time!"
He Lin was driving on their left.
In the passenger seat, Lu Jiu asked while shooting towards the rear: "What potion?"
He Ying: "Laoli's laboratory has developed a broad-spectrum zombie repellent potion. If you spray it on your body, even the original strain of zombies will ignore you! But the ingredients are too difficult to extract, and the amount they made is very small! He only has 1ml now, and we are reluctant to use it all the way!"
Lu Jiu was stunned and looked at He Lin.
Isn’t this just another version of the powder that the Wise Group came up with?
*
The other end.
In base No. 1.
"Brother Xu, the monitoring room detected some disturbance among the zombies near the base. They are gathering here!"
"Brother Xu, Boss He contacted and said they picked up the person, but they were entangled by a few primitive strains!"
“Original strain?!… Could it be that these zombies near the base were also attracted by them?”
"If we open the gate of the base, will zombies get in?"
A large group of people followed Xu Lin.
He walked quickly into the monitoring room and saw the scenes of all directions of the base captured by the drone on the big screen.
In the darkness, shadows loom.
Countless shadows are approaching here.
Xu Lin put his fist to his chin and frowned in thought.
These zombies should have been attracted by the original strain, but He Lin was still so far away from them, and these zombies were affected. So how many original strain zombies entangled He Lin and his companions?
The original strain of zombies is difficult to get rid of, so the best cooperation plan for the base is to open the gate in advance when He Lin and his team are about to arrive at the base.
However, no matter how accurate the timing is, with countless zombies approaching at this moment, there will always be a few zombies that sneak into the base.
There are too many ordinary people in the base who are powerless, and it would be very dangerous even if just one zombie got in.
What should I do?
Xu Lin turned around and asked his subordinates beside him: "Can the cannon that He Lin made before still be used now?"
The subordinate hesitated and said, "It can be used, but there are not many shells left. After using it this time, it may not be used again in a short time. We have to wait for a new batch of shells to be processed."
Xu Lin pinched the corners of his eyes.
It would be a bit uneconomical to use the cannon at this time.
The subordinate suggested: "Brother Xu, why don't we just send someone to guard the door and shoot all the zombies that approach!"
Xu Lin frowned. "It's so dark, we have no idea how many zombies are approaching us. The drone can't even take clear pictures. It's too dangerous for you to just stay outside like this!"
Of course they can turn on the headlights to illuminate the surroundings, but this trick is not recommended unless it is absolutely necessary. In the dark, zombies are too easily attracted by the lights.
Maybe there weren't so many zombies attracted by the original strain, but as soon as the lights were turned on, they all came over!
An idea popped up in Xu Lin's mind, but he suppressed it as soon as it came out.
He frowned, remained silent for a moment, and asked, "How far are He Lin and the others from here?"
"About three kilometers to go!"
There is not much time left for him to make a decision.
Xu Lin put his fist to his lips, remained silent for another minute, sighed, and put his hand down.
"-Where are the powders we found from the Wise Group placed? Take them all out!"
*
In an emergency, everyone moves quickly.
Two minutes later, three bags of medicine powder packed in snakeskin bags were placed in front of everyone.
The three bags of medicine powder have completely different quantities and properties. The bag on the left is about one kilogram, the bag in the middle is only about one pound, and the bag on the right seems to be less than half a pound.
The colors of the powder are white, pink and gray.
When Xu Lin saw it, he was overwhelmed.
"How come there are three types? Are all three used to fight zombies? Or is only one of them? What did Jin Lan and the others say?"
The subordinate beside him said: "I heard Brother Zhao say before that it seems that these three kinds of powders need to be mixed together in proportion, but the specific proportions need to be asked by Brother Zhao and others!"
It actually has to be mixed on site?
Xu Lin was speechless: "How can Zhao Lushan and his men have time to deal with us now!"
And he didn't believe in the memory of those guys at all!
He rubbed his forehead and said, "Bring Jin Lan here, quickly!"
Soon, a subordinate came here pulling Jin Lan.
Jin Lan's hands were still handcuffed, and she looked much more haggard than she had a few days ago, with messy hair and a dirty face.
He shook off the subordinate and sneered, "Chief Xu, you locked us up when you didn't need us, and brought us out when you needed us. Do we in the Wise Group look like such despicable people?"
When Xu Lin heard this, the veins on his forehead began to throb.
In the past, he was still a respectable person who always gave people face in everything.
When He Lin ordered the arrest of all members of the Wise Group, he also felt that He Lin was going a bit too far.
But at this moment he discovered that Jin Lan was really shameless!
He pointed at Jin Lan's nose and cursed: "Why do we want to arrest you? Don't you understand? Do you think we like to waste food and space to support your group?! Let me ask you, was it you who did the zombie wave that the adventurer team encountered?! If you lie, you will become a zombie tonight. Do you dare to swear an oath?!"
The subordinate beside him opened his mouth, wanting to say that Brother Xu, your way of speaking is too old-fashioned...
However, Jin Lan's face changed, and she moved her lips but couldn't say anything.
Xu Lin cursed again: "If He Lin didn't lock you up, do you dare to say that you wouldn't command the zombies to attack us?! Do you dare to say that you wouldn't think of using all kinds of insidious means to snatch the information of the primary antidote?!"
"You guys, you all sound like scholars, so noble, but in reality, what's the difference between you and bandits?! Fine, I won't call you bandits anymore. What we're doing now is also banditry. We're bandits against bandits, and no one will say anything. But don't look like you're going to refute me. I'll say the same thing again. If you dare to lie or say something against your will, you'll turn into a zombie tonight!"
Jin Lan's face was distorted.
"I'll make it clear to you. The situation around the base is complicated right now. We need to use your powder. If you don't cooperate, we won't be able to take care of you when the zombies get into the base. We can escape, but you can't escape in the prison. Just wait to be bitten!"
Jin Lan screamed, "Chief Xu?!"
Xu Lin: "Stop chattering, tell me how to adjust it!"
He pointed at the three bags of powder in front of him, finally revealing the toughness and iron-bloodedness that a base leader should have.
"Your life is in our hands. There is no room for bargaining here!"
Jin Lan's chest heaved with anger.
He clenched his teeth and uttered: "...How many zombies do you need to deal with?"
Xu Lin said coldly: "We need to spread a circle outside the base, that's the amount!"
*
Everyone is racing against time.
The gate of the base was opened and four teams were dispatched.
Two teams each carried a bag of mixed powder, one to the left and the other to the right, and they simultaneously scattered the powder along the wall of the base.
The other two teams covered them and pointed their guns at the shadows approaching in the darkness.
This batch of medicinal powder would be difficult for humans to smell, but perhaps because the amount was too large at the moment, a herbal scent spread in the air, and the zombies in the distance stopped in their tracks.
"It works! It really works!"
Immediately someone shouted excitedly.
"No, with this thing, why are we still hiding in the base? We can live our lives as usual!"
"Yeah, we just need to sprinkle the powder and kill all the zombies!"
"Are you stupid? What's the point of just killing the zombies? The zombie virus can remain outside the human body for a long time. No one can even calculate this time. We have to find a way to kill them completely before we can go back to the way we were before!"
"Well, we are just thinking about it..."
Xu Lin stood at the gate of the base, followed by a group of people.
Jin Lan had a gun pressed against the back of his head and stood obediently beside him.
Xu Lin frowned and looked ahead in the darkness. After hearing the conversation between the boys, he paused and asked, "Can this powder really deal with all zombies?"
"Of course, this is the most extensive zombie-repelling drug currently available, and only we can research it!" Jin Lan was rather arrogant when it came to professional fields. "Have the people in your base spread the powder out and see if the zombies dare to approach them!"
His words reached the ears of the people around him, and the looks they gave him became subtle.
It has to be admitted that although the style of the Wisdom Group remains to be evaluated, its scientific research capabilities are indeed top-notch.
Jin Lan was quiet for a while, then lowered her voice and said, "Chief Xu, there are some things I want to tell you. You may not be used to the way our Wise Group works, but do you admit that in today's world, to achieve certain things, you need some special means?"
Xu Lin glanced over.
Does this mean they are admitting that they were responsible for the wave of zombies that the adventurer team encountered?
"A group of people with questionable research and development capabilities are holding on to the research data of the primary antidote just to monopolize the title of 'savior'. Do they really have the ability to perfect the primary antidote? When can they perfect it? No one can guarantee it. They are gambling with the lives of all mankind!"
Xu Lin said: "How do you know they want to be the 'savior'? Maybe they simply don't trust you and don't want to cooperate with you."
"Who else can they cooperate with? If they don't trust us, who else can they trust?" Jin Lan said disdainfully, "Right now, which organization has stronger scientific research capabilities than us?"
"As long as we can get the research data of the primary antidote, I guarantee that within half a month, our Wise Group will be able to produce a finished product! At that time, Chief Xu, do you still think it is unethical for us to use informal means to seize the research data of the primary antidote? Which is more important, the safety of all mankind or superficial morality?!"
"...Jin Lan, your words sound very high-sounding," Xu Lin said slowly, "but the question is, if your scientific research capabilities are so strong, how could someone else develop a primary antidote first?"
Jin Lan's face froze.
He was about to say more when a shout interrupted him.
"The boss and the others are here!"
In the darkness, the shadows of several cars appeared faintly in front.
They are rushing towards here at a very fast speed, and some zombies are following their car.
And the most dangerous thing is that there is a zombie lying on the roof of the SUV in the middle!
On both sides of this SUV are the off-road vehicles driven by He Lin and Zhang Mu.
Lu Jiu and Zhang Mu, two members of the base in their car, leaned out to shoot at the zombie, but the zombie bounced up nimbly and landed on the roof of the SUV behind!
——This is clearly a primitive zombie!
Before Jin Lan could come to her senses, someone in the base had already sprinkled powder on her. She drew her gun and rushed out: "Let's go support the boss and the others!"
His face changed, and he opened his mouth to speak, but the words died in his throat.
Several members of the base stood outside the gate and shot at the primitive zombie. The zombie dodged left and right, always clinging to the roof of the last car!
"No, it's too far, we need to get closer!"
After saying this, three of the young men rushed forward.
With the powder on them, they are not afraid of anything.
They didn't notice that Zhao Lushan in front of them was leaning out of the window and waving at them, signaling them not to come over!
Dust was rising and yellow sand was everywhere.
In the SUV, Lu Jiu paused and squinted his eyes.
This zombie has entangled them, and if they continue, they will rush into the base with it.
"Let He Ying give you Dr. Li's potion." He Lin said while driving.
Lu Jiu just happened to have the same idea - he and He Lin thought of the same thing.
He said to He Ying who was in the SUV with them, "Brother He, can I use Dr. Li's potion?"
Dr. Li heard what he said and without saying a word, he stuffed the potion to He Ying who was driving. He Ying then handed the potion to Lu Jiu through the window while steering.
1ml of transparent medicine is placed in a graduated glass tube, which sways with the bumps of the vehicle.
Lu Jiu leaned his upper body out of the window again.
He held the gun in his left hand and the glass tube in his right hand.
The zombie was lying on the SUV behind. Noticing his movements, it leaped forward with force and actually jumped back onto the roof of the SUV!
A thud was heard from above his head, and He Ying's face turned ashen.
Lu Jiu and the zombie, one low and one high, looked at each other.
Lu Jiu raised his eyebrows.
What, you want to pounce on him directly?
However, to his surprise—
The zombie tilted its head and looked at him for a moment. The next second, it turned its head away and leaped forward again - it actually flew towards the three guys from the base who were running towards him with guns!
The three guys stopped immediately and shot at it.
It landed on its hands and feet, dodged left and right, avoided every bullet, and approached them at a rapid speed, arriving in front of them in the blink of an eye!
"The powder has no effect on it?!"
They finally realized the problem and their faces changed drastically.
However, the zombie had already jumped up from the spot and flew over their heads.
Its hands were spread out like animal claws, its mouth opened to the extreme, its two rows of teeth were rotten and sharp, and it could pounce down and bite off a person's head in the next second!
——
Off-road vehicles and SUVs drove past them on both sides.
A clear glass tube was thrown between them and it.
On the side, Lu Jiu's entire upper body leaned out of the car window.
He held the gun with both hands, aimed at the glass tube, and pulled the trigger.
The silencer muffled the sound of the gunshot, and a bullet broke through the air and shot towards the intended target at high speed.
It pierced the glass tube, and transparent liquid splashed out in the air, some of it splashed on the foreheads of the three guys, and some of it splashed into the eyes of the primitive zombie.
A moment.
The zombie let out a shrill scream, covered his eyes, and fell to the ground from the air!
"Don't just stand there, run!"
Immediately after they passed by the off-road vehicle heading towards the base, Zhao Lushan yelled at them!
The three young men came to their senses immediately.
They looked in amazement at the sight of the primitive zombie rolling on the spot, then quickly turned around and followed their car into the base.
The gate of the base was immediately closed, locking out all the zombies that were wandering around and no longer dared to come closer because of the various smells.
*
Six cars stopped in the empty square of the base.
The three young men ran back and shouted, "Brother Xu, this powder has no effect on the original strain!"
Xu Lin naturally also saw what happened just now.
At this moment, his face darkened and he turned to look at Jin Lan.
Jin Lan froze, and immediately defended herself: "Didn't you tell me that they also attracted the original strain!"
Xu Lin said slowly: "I just asked you if your powder works on all zombies, and your answer was 'of course'."
"It's effective against all common zombies! There are so few original strains left, how could I have thought of them!"
"You researchers are so imprecise in your words?"
“Captain Xu, at least our batch of powder has stopped so many zombies for you, right?!”
"Yes, but because of your exaggeration, our members almost lost their lives. Jin Lan, how many truths do you say?"
"Are you talking about truth and lies? It's not easy to develop this kind of powder. Chief Xu, you are just talking nonsense!"
"——Very difficult? How is it difficult?"
A voice interrupted.
Xu Lin and Jin Lan stopped arguing and looked in the direction where the sound came from.
It was Dr. Li who got off the SUV.
He stared at Jin Lan with a gloomy face: "Jin Lan, I didn't expect to see you here. Why are you handcuffed? Are you addicted to stealing other people's research results? Finally someone reported you?"
Lu Jiu and He Lin had just gotten off the SUV.
Lu Jiu looked at the two men.
What's going on?
By the way, it seems that Jin Lan and Dr. Li are in the same laboratory?
Seeing He Ying coming over, he asked in a low voice, "Brother He, didn't you tell Dr. Li that Jin Lan was here?"
He Ying also stared at Jin Lan coldly: "I did, of course I did. Otherwise, how would we know that Jin Lan was also in that laboratory before? Lao Li was thinking about scolding Jin Lan on the way here. He even wrote several drafts!"
Lu Jiu understood.
When Jin Lan saw Dr. Li, her face turned pale instantly.
Xu Lin immediately asked Dr. Li: "Do you know him?"
Dr. Li sneered, "He used to be in our lab, how could I not know him? He gave you a powder to repel zombies, right? Ha, this drug was originally developed by my team, but before he left the lab, he copied all our research data without our consent and destroyed all the original data stored on our computers."
"You want to take control of other people's research results, right, Jin Lan? But do you think that deleting the data will solve the problem? We did all this research ourselves, and all the data is in our brains! Even if we lose the data, we can still make the potion! You, who have never produced any results yourself, can't understand!"
"This guy did the same thing to other teams. He stole at least ten research results from the lab! With these bargaining chips in his hands, he probably went to many bases to cheat, right?"
Everyone looked shocked.
They looked at Jin Lan in shock.
There was no trace of blood on Jin Lan's face.
Dr. Li pointed at him and said to everyone, "I don't know what kind of people he has gathered, but those who can get along with him are definitely not serious people."
"This guy has no scientific research ability at all, he can only steal! He became famous at a young age and was called a genius scientist, but all his research results since he was a child were stolen by his father from the researchers under him. Many people in this circle know about those things!"
"He's a liar!"
