The wolfhound moved very quickly. It leaped high into the air, and Zhang Mu's vision instantly widened.
But when he saw the scene near the artificial lake, he couldn't help but frown.
This scene is really too tragic.
There were a large number of people lying on the ground, some were wrapped in gauze, some had not had time to bandage their wounds, there were wounds everywhere, and there was a lot of blood on the ground. Sitting in the middle of the group of wounded was Wang Liang, who was also receiving bandages from a middle-aged man who looked like a doctor with a ferocious expression.
Even a cautious man like Wang Liang was injured? What on earth did they encounter when they went out to search for supplies? With his own twenty sets of standard equipment, as long as Wang Liang's brain was not broken, he should be able to easily deal with the zombie swarm in Luoyang City, even if there were a thousand of them? How could he end up in such an embarrassing situation?
Zhang Mu guessed with some doubt, got off the wolfhound's back, and slowly walked towards the crowd.
Many of the wounded lying on the ground were so weak that they were unable to stand up when they saw Zhang Mu coming over. Zhang Mu also signaled them to lie down and rest.
Seeing Zhang Mu coming over, Wang Liang signaled the middle-aged doctor who was bandaging him to tie the last piece of gauze and then go to rescue other people first.
After the doctor left, Zhang Mu frowned and asked, "What happened to your arm? What happened? Why are you in such a mess? I remember you told me that since you traded twenty sets of standard equipment from me, your strength has generally been damaged with zero casualties, right?"
Hearing the doubt in Zhang Mu's tone, Wang Liang's eyes were about to sparkle. He gritted his teeth and told the whole story, "The gathering place in East City."
"They fought with you? We were just helping them clean up the zombies they couldn't handle themselves, but they actually fought? But even if they did, I remember that even if your two hundred or so evolvers couldn't dominate Luoyang City, they should be the best. I went to ten gathering places to complete transactions. The largest one in the East City you mentioned only had more than ninety evolvers gathered, not even half of your number. How did you end up like this?"
After listening to Zhang Mu's series of questions, Wang Liang did not speak. After a while, his voice turned cold. "Of course they can't do anything to us by themselves. When we passed by, the leader of the gathering place in East City even let us pass in a very good manner.
But I, Wang Liang, never expected that one person
They were so hypocritical that when we were clearing out nearly 1,500 zombies, the leader of this gathering place sent people to use blood to lure a group of 1,000 zombies that were originally quite far away from us. "
"You mean, he sent people to use blood to lure the zombies over so that you can be caught between two sides?"
Zhang Mu was completely confused at this moment. There had never been such a ruthless gathering place leader in the original Luoyang City. Was it Zhang Mu's actions that allowed this man, who died very early in later generations, to survive and create a gathering place?
It was only the tenth day since the apocalypse began. Has the darkness of human nature been exposed to this extent? This did not involve any fundamental interests. It was just a group of zombies and supplies in a small area.
"Well, when I saw a car with a child hanging from the back of it being dragged towards us, I felt something was wrong. Sure enough, not long after, a huge group of zombies came behind us. Although not as many as the group we are dealing with now, there are at least a thousand of them."
Wang Liang's eyes were extremely cold at this time, and he said slowly, "Brother Mu, you know that we can't face a zombie group of thousands directly. We are just taking advantage of the terrain, the special abilities of some earth-type ability users, and those solid standard shields to slowly wear them down.
However, the new group of zombies that suddenly appeared behind us completely disrupted our plans.
I had to adjust the order and evacuate as soon as the zombies were joined together. I didn't even have time to pick up the crystals from the nearly two hundred zombies we had killed."
Zhang Mu felt even more puzzled. According to what Wang Liang said, he should have led his evolvers out of the zombie encirclement. But why were the casualties so heavy?
In a flash, Zhang Mu thought of the only possibility, and his voice became cold, "Dongcheng's strength took action when you were evacuating."
Wang Liang looked up at Zhang Mu and said in a painful and ferocious voice, "Yes, I had already led my brothers away and evacuated to the two nearest streets. This was the retreat route we had prepared in advance.
But unexpectedly, when we were halfway through evacuating, we discovered that these two streets had already been ambushed by forces from East City."
Wang Liang's voice was very calm, as if he was talking about something that happened to him.
It was like an unrelated matter, but Zhang Mu could feel how much anger was contained in his plain words.
"Their carefully prepared blockade completely stopped our retreat. At this time, the zombies rushed in. We were still able to fight back on the narrow streets. However, I don't know why there were so many fire evolvers there. They directly attacked and dragged our brothers holding shields in front of the battle line into the sea of fire. At the back, our retreat was blocked by the earth wall erected by their earth evolvers.
Brother Mu, you know, I don't have many water-type evolvers, and they insidiously poured a large amount of gasoline into the sea of fire. Even the power of the earth element can't put out the fire. I, Wang Liang, can only watch my brothers, the brothers who stood in front of me, being burned to death one by one. "
At this point, Wang Liang's voice began to tremble. He seemed to recall how his companions who were burned by the flames asked him for help, but he was completely powerless to do anything.
Adding gasoline is very common in later generations, but it is not surprising that human nature was lost so much at that time. But now, it is still like this.
Wang Liang waved his intact arm, pointed at the other arm that couldn't move, and said, "This is when I was trying to disintegrate the earth element, and I was ambushed by those bastards who only dared to attack from behind."
"In the end, our defense line was breached by the zombies. Fortunately, I was able to tear down the earth wall built by at least ten people in time, and then I escaped with the rest of the people. Haha, they didn't continue to chase us. They probably thought we were no longer a threat."
His eyes began to look lonely. "The doctor looked at the wound just now and said that there is no condition now. I can only rely on gauze to bandage it and rely on myself to recover. But even if such a fire-attributed injury is healed, it will greatly damage the flexibility of my arm.
My hand is useless."
Wang Liang's voice became low, but he immediately stared at Zhang Mu with his eyes and said, "Now I have brought back only half of the people I went out with this morning. I feel sorry for them, but I want revenge. For the child who died tragically, and for the brother who died in the sea of fire."
His voice was trembling the whole time, and he finally uttered with difficulty some words that moved Zhang Mu.
"Brother Mu, I, Wang Liang, have never asked you for anything, but I can’t do it on my own now.
Brother Mu, help me this time."
