Chapter 289 We are too idle~
The zombies surrounded Yuan Huan, scratching at his metal protective suit with their claws and fangs.
There are at least 3,000 zombies in the underground base, and about 500 survivors hiding in the central laboratory.
Yuan Huan and several other high-level psychics have been slowly clearing out the zombies. After all, it is their base's own business, and he doesn't want to ask other bases for help. Moreover, the base gate has been blocked now. If the door is opened, the mutated zombies affected by stardust in the base may escape.
Once the stardust spreads more and more widely, it will make the already broken world even more chaotic.
Luo Jinbei and Mo Lian cooperated with Yuan Huan through the gate to clear out the zombies at the entrance.
"If the zombies here are not very powerful, we can go in and help, but the collected zombie crystal cores must belong to us." Luo Jinbei said slowly.
Yuan Huan was very surprised. Even if a normal person has powerful superpowers, he would not take risks on his own initiative.
Just now, when the three of them were working together to repel the zombies, he could feel that the two of them really wanted to stay and help.
I've never seen such a thing in my life.
"We have zombies transformed from star-level mutants here. It's very dangerous." Yuan Huan warned in a deep voice.
"It's okay. We haven't seen a star-level zombie yet. This is a good opportunity to see it." Mo Lian used the intercom to contact the few people who were still waiting in the flying car outside and asked them to go back first.
Seeing that the two were very calm and confident, Yuan Huan opened the door.
Some zombies heard the sound of the iron gate opening and hurried over.
Luo Jinbei and Mo Lian quickly squeezed through the crack of the door and knocked the attacking zombies to death with shovels.
Inside the Haicheng underground base, various dried bloodstains can be seen everywhere, and there are also many living zombies lying on the roadside.
Inside the central laboratory, the surveillance footage showed Yuan Huan bringing two outsiders in, and Niu Bi slammed the table in anger.
"This Yuan Huan, won't everything we've done be exposed?" Ma Maipi stood up. "No, they can't get out now that they're in. Don't we still have the final experiment to complete? These two psychics are just right."
In addition to Yuan Huan, there were many people in the underground base who were wearing metal protective clothing like him and were clearing out zombies on a large scale. Many survivors who had not yet completely mutated into zombies and had the same symptoms as Zeng Zishan before were also ruthlessly killed by them.
Luo Jinbei discovered that this base was built deep underground. Outside the solid steel was black sea water, and zombie fish could be seen swimming outside some transparent windows.
Yuan Huan took them directly to the central laboratory.
Many people here are sleeping on the floor. Most of them are hungry and look very disheveled. You can even smell a faint smell of feces and urine.
"We come from Stone Mountain. I am Luo Jinbei, a first-level gold star-level psychic, and he is Mo Lian, a third-level spirit star-level psychic. We are here to help you." Luo Jinbei introduced in a friendly manner.
Zhong Yang and Niu Bi looked at each other, unable to hide the shock in their eyes. The last time they met, they were only seventh- and eighth-level psychics, but now they have both advanced to star level.
Stone Mountain is indeed not to be underestimated.
These two people dared to go to their base alone, obviously they had great confidence in their own strength.
"There are three star-level psychics outside the base, and the real-time camera in my hand is also monitoring them in real time." Luo Jinbei said nonchalantly.
Ma Maipi's heart was filled with turmoil.
Since Stone Mountain sent out star-level psychics, it means that there is no shortage of high-level psychics on their mountain, and they are now under real-time monitoring. If they act rashly, they may be attacked by Stone Mountain.
Ma Maipi signaled to the people around him, asking them not to take action for the time being.
Yuan Huan was very sensitive to the emotional changes in his eyes, and a sarcastic expression flashed across his face hidden behind the metal mask.
"Since you are willing to help, we welcome you. Now there are two star-level mutants in the base who have turned into zombies. As long as we get rid of them, the other zombies will be a piece of cake. We are discussing countermeasures, and it's just right that you are here." Ma Maipi asked Niu Bi to lift the white cloth on the table.
The blue display screen shows a line distribution map of the entire Haicheng underground base.
It looks like a cross, with the central laboratory located in the center of the cross and most of the zombies distributed on the four short arms.
In order to prevent them from spreading, Ma Maipi has locked all the doors in the base and continuously sent people with special abilities out to clean up the zombies. Currently, only the short arm space connecting to the top tower has been cleared.
"We've imprisoned those two star-level zombies on the lowest level. We originally planned to develop a potion that could paralyze the zombies in a short period of time. Now that you're here, perhaps we can form a small team and act independently."
After listening to this, Luo Jinbei frowned and said, "Since you have sealed all the hatches, why don't you escape? I think the materials of this base are very solid. Those zombies should not be able to escape."
"Because we don't want to abandon this base yet," Yuan Huan whispered. "It's difficult to build a new base, and the weather outside is bad right now. It's almost impossible for us to build another base that can accommodate a large number of survivors in a short period of time."
Zhong Yang nodded in agreement, "Most of our supplies are within the base, and no other base will accept us."
They are all very self-aware.
Luo Jinbei believed what they said temporarily.
"In that case, let's finish this quickly." Mo Lian also wanted to go home early to accompany Xuan Hongyan.
The last six people went to explore under the base.
Luo Yunjin had been watching in front of the TV, but when he saw the zombies all over the ground on the screen, he lost the desire to continue watching.
The vegetable dog from before also came back with her. Due to lack of water and being exposed to the strong sunlight for a period of time, the leaves on the vegetable dog were a little wilted.
After pouring a cup of water on it, the dog immediately became energetic, depended on her, and followed her back.
The tabby cat and leopard cat at home are very curious about it.
The cabbage dog is a very friendly cabbage. It gave a piece of its cabbage leaf to the two cats and also considerately helped them cover their heads with it.
Soon, two fresh cats made their debut.
The black cat lying on the wooden steps glanced at him with extremely cold eyes.
The vegetable dog thought it wanted it too, so he happily delivered a vegetable leaf.
Before long, the tabby cat and the leopard cat began to collude with the dog, chasing and fighting in the yard.
"Is this cabbage the mutated plant that was affected by the stardust before? It doesn't look like a ferocious mutated plant." Xiao Choujue said.
Chen Yueliang, standing by, clicked her tongue twice. "Didn't you see? Both the tabby and the leopard cat are affected by it. I suspect the vegetable leaves covering their heads are some kind of switch. They become excited as soon as they put them on. Look how happy the tabby cat is! He used to be the laziest cat in the house, never able to jump onto the table, but today he can even jump onto a tree."
Xiao Choujue nodded with admiration.
The camera that Luo Jinbei took away is connected to the TV on Stone Mountain, and now many idle people are watching the real-time monitoring.
They hadn't seen so many zombies in a long time, and they felt inexplicably itchy.
"If I had known, I would have gone with them. There's not much work to do in the mountains right now. Yesterday, I helped the mutant gray rabbit family chop some firewood, and they enthusiastically gave me a basket of red berries."
"Isn't it? I've been so idle lately that I just squat outside the cafeteria every day, waiting for my meals. I eat and sleep, sleep and eat. I really envy the psychics in the base under Haicheng who have zombies to deal with. We have so much free time."
"Yeah, my wife and I have been thinking about having a baby lately. Otherwise, it would be too boring."
…
A group of people sat on the second floor of the buffet restaurant, gathered together to watch the surveillance footage and chatted idly, feeling that such days were too boring and lacked a sense of urgency.
On the monitor, Mo Lian led the way. Wherever he passed, all the low-level zombies were controlled by his powerful mental power.
Niu Bi was about to blast the man who was gasping for breath against the wall with a wooden shovel, but Luo Jinbei grabbed his arm and said, "They can still be saved."
Luo Jinbei didn't bring many recovery fruits with him, so he could only ask people to move the survivors who had not completely turned into zombies into a room separately, and then cut a few recovery fruits into several portions, trying to get one for everyone.
Because there were not enough recovery fruits, I could only barely save their lives, and they still had to recuperate well themselves afterwards.
Zhong Yang has been closely observing Luo Jinbei and Mo Lian.
Seeing them take out things he had never seen before, as well as their powerful strength, made him unconsciously develop an inexplicable trust and admiration for the two of them.
He no longer looks at people with prejudice and is very obedient.
They rushed all the way to the bottom of the base.
Zombies infected by stardust, even those above level seven, have no consciousness of their own and are more powerful than ordinary zombies.
The closer you get to the bottom floor, the more you can feel the powerful abilities of the zombies trapped inside.
"Those two zombies are of the water and earth types respectively." Zhong Yang said quickly.
Mo Lian understood. He placed his palm on the door and used his mental power to weave a network that could lock up consciousness.
Although it only targeted zombies, everyone nearby felt a sharp pain in their heads and they couldn't help but stand a little further away.
All zombies locked by the mental network will freeze in place and stop moving.
But the two star-level zombies inside didn't seem to be affected, and the roars could still be heard from inside.
Mo Lian increased his supernatural power output.
Just then, there was sudden silence behind the door.
The door suddenly shook.
Mo Lian took two steps back, his palms trembling.
He was a little bit incredulous, "There are star-level psychic zombies in here! Are they dual-level zombies?"
Niu Bi's eyes were evasive.
Zhong Yang immediately realized that something was wrong. He slapped Niu Bi on the back of his head. "Brother Niu, it's already this late. Just say what you want to say!"
"The leader asked me to find an opportunity to take action. Uncle Wang does have dual abilities. The leader said that if we can take this star-level zombie for our own use, we won't be afraid of other bases." Niu Bi told all the truth in one breath. He followed them all the way and realized that Luo Jinbei and Mo Lian were really good people.
"Ma Maipi didn't tell us that Wang Fu has dual abilities. It seems he still doesn't trust us and has his own plans. He may be taking advantage of us by asking us to clean up the zombies," Yuan Huan said disdainfully.
"Even so, this zombie still needs to be dealt with." Mo Lian signaled to Luo Jinbei, asking him to directly use the metal-reinforced shovel to destroy the door.
Luo Jinbei said nothing and struck the door three times in a row, making a big hole in it.
When he saw the zombie stretching out its hand, he chopped off the hand with a shovel.
The earth-type zombies inside kept producing mud, and the mud and sand slowly slid out of the hole.
The water zombie Wang Fu was also pouring water into the soil. His face was covered in mud and sand, and his skin was broken and rotten, revealing the yellow fat inside.
There was still a little stardust on his body that had not been completely absorbed. In the darkness, the blue stardust emitted a faint light.
Yuan Huan tried to burn them with fire, but the two zombies were very strong and were not afraid of the flames at all.
Zhong Yang, Niu Bi and several other psychics were frightened by the high-level zombies. They knew very well that if they encountered these zombies, they would definitely end up as cannon fodder seeking death.
Several people cooperated with Luo Jinbei and Mo Lian to block the zombies inside.
The metal condensed by Luo Jinbei could hurt the zombies, so he turned to making golden needles and then fired them at the zombies. He was the main force of the attack.
Mo Lian was using his mental power to interfere and try to slow down the zombies' movements.
Just when the two zombies were running out of strength and were about to be controlled by Mo Lian.
The short man who had been standing next to Zhong Yang suddenly rushed forward and stabbed Mo Lian's waist with the dagger in his hand. The dagger was covered with stardust.
Mo Lian frowned with difficulty, precisely because his supernatural powers had relaxed.
The two zombies broke free from the constraints of mental power and rushed out.
Things happened quickly. Luo Jinbei quickly aimed a golden needle that had not yet fully solidified and stabbed it into the zombie's forehead.
Yuan Huan looked at the psychic who was still holding the dagger in shock, strode over and threw a large pen bag at him.
"Are you crazy?"
The other person's face quickly turned red and swollen, and there was some confusion and hatred in his eyes.
Mo Lian quickly ate a rejuvenation fruit to restore his strength.
He could feel the superpowers in his body boiling.
He had previously used the mysterious meteorite Meow Meow Stone without caring about his own health, and he still had hidden injuries on his body.
Now Stardust's power has spread throughout his body through his blood. If it weren't for his high superpowers, he would have fainted and fallen to the ground.
In the real-time monitoring, everyone on the Stone Mountain saw this scene and stood up angrily.
"Fuck! The people in this Haicheng underground base are so heartless! We went there to help, but they're still secretly hurting us!"
"I have such a bad temper!"
Luo Yunjin was also a little worried. She had just seen the two of them give all the recovery fruits they had to the survivors, and they must have no reserves left now.
So he quickly contacted Zhong Lingmei and asked her to go in and deliver the recovery fruit, and also contacted his second brother and asked him to bring Mo Lian out quickly.
Both star-level zombies were pierced in the brain by the golden thorns that Luo Jinbei had just released at the critical moment.
He took away the zombie crystal core without any psychological burden, and collected all the crystal cores in the brains of the surrounding zombies, leaving none for Yuan Huan and others.
Yuan Huan knew he was angry.
The short psychic holding the dagger wanted to take the opportunity to stab Luo Jinbei again.
As a result, Niu Bi slammed him aside with another big brush bag and kicked him hard several times.
Luo Jinbei picked up Princess Mo Lian and rushed out.
The others followed behind.
Ma Maipi in the central laboratory had been waiting for news. When he heard the sound of running outside, his eyes lit up.
As a result, as soon as he opened the door, Yuan Huan threw a large wallet at him.
He was completely stunned.
"You are really not worthy of being the leader of a base." Yuan Huan cursed fiercely, then quickly caught up with Luo Jinbei and helped him open the door.
Outside, Zhong Lingmei was waiting anxiously.
Seeing the weak Mo Lian in Luo Jinbei's arms, he directly poured the recovery juice that had been in the bottle into him.
Mo Lian, who was nearly choked to death:???
