Chapter 306 Should I tell him?
"So what?"
Duan Xi sat cross-legged on the ground peeling a sausage and said in a nonchalant tone, "According to our observation, the zombies on the beach are heading back and will arrive near Ocean Park tomorrow. Follow us, and you'll have a chance to survive."
Upon hearing this, the six men's faces turned deathly pale.
One of the girls said urgently, "But there really are a lot of zombies in Dongyi Town. We're not lying to you. Going there would only lead to death."
Another person chimed in, "As long as we stay in the employee passage and don't go out, those zombies outside won't be able to get in."
The aquarium has many passageways, plenty of food, and no shortage of water.
They still felt safer here.
Tao Haohao was speechless: "Are you planning to stay here for the rest of your life?"
"Once the outside is surrounded by zombies, you won't be able to leave even if you want to."
Song Liang was pouring rice into the rice cooker and said, "Food will eventually run out. When the water and electricity are cut off one day, does any of you know how to fix the generator? Or do you know how to fix the water recycling system?"
The six people were left speechless by the question.
Seeing their hesitation, Song Liang softened his tone and said, "Don't worry, if our captain dares to make such a decision, he has a way to take that island. Only by following us will you have a chance to survive."
The six students exchanged glances, their hearts still filled with doubt and unease.
Their identity as soldiers in Zero Team made them instinctively want to rely on others.
But the town of Dongyi is infested with tens of thousands of zombies.
Even if they tried to lure them away by car, the huge commotion would only attract more monsters.
How exactly should these soldiers be dealt with?
What will happen to the remaining supplies if we go with them?
Liao Yuxuan looked conflicted and said, "Sir, we might need to discuss this."
Seeing that the captain had left again, Duan Xi waved the sausage in his hand and said, "Go on."
The six people got up one after another, left the current passage, and wandered off to who-knows-where.
*
As time passed, the sky gradually darkened.
The moonlight struggled to pierce through the thick clouds, casting a pale, faint glow that illuminated the dried bloodstains on the road, revealing shocking dark red patches scattered throughout the streets and alleys.
Countless zombies wandered slowly under the moonlight, their figures swaying, yet they moved tirelessly, searching for the scent of living beings.
Xie Tu stood at the entrance of the passage, his eyes slightly narrowed, releasing all his senses.
The sounds and noises from all directions kept reaching my ears.
Xie Tu listened for a while, then raised his wrist and started the pollution concentration test.
The numbers on the dashboard were slowly climbing.
It gradually rose from the initial 32% to 50%, and has not stopped.
Countless dark substances spread from every corner.
Yun Zhao spotted the dark matter, raised his hand slightly, and countless fluorescent lights flashed, instantly erecting a mental barrier to prevent the dark matter from invading the sentinels' mental realm.
And outside.
Upon contact with the dark substance, the zombies' originally slow and clumsy steps suddenly halted, their bones emitted eerie "crackling" sounds, and black energy surged beneath their rotting skin.
Xie Tu stared intently at the dashboard, his eyes turning deep and dangerous, and announced, "The zombies are absorbing dark matter, seemingly undergoing some kind of evolution."
Evolution may only begin tonight.
Because of the arrival of Team Zero.
The sentries killed zombies as easily as slicing watermelons, charging fearlessly through the hordes of zombies.
Duan Xi complained, "Is it the goalkeeper who thinks it looks bad?"
It's because they're too strong and the monsters are too weak.
Ordinary zombies really can't pose a threat to Team Zero.
"In many post-apocalyptic novels, zombies are supposed to evolve."
Qi Ling was a little worried, "Won't this disrupt our plans?"
"It's no problem. Even after evolving, it probably won't be as difficult to deal with as the mutants. At most, it'll just take a little more effort." The rabbit didn't think much of it. To her, it was all the same—a headshot.
Qi Ling then said, "But evolved zombies can use various superpowers, and novels usually feature a zombie king who can control all the zombies and form a zombie horde to attack humans."
General Yun Zhao's coat was placed on the ground. She had just sat down when she asked curiously, "What is a superpower?"
Qi Ling then explained the science to them again.
Metal, wood, water, fire, earth, spatial spiritual power...
The members of Team Zero were stunned.
The rabbit remarked, "People in the old days had such rich imaginations."
"Is fire-based superpower as powerful as a fire phoenix?" Duan Xi asked excitedly.
Qi Ling hesitated for a moment. He couldn't see the spiritual body, nor had he ever witnessed the Fire Phoenix wreaking havoc.
However, in traditional culture, the phoenix symbolizes auspiciousness and rebirth, and is an extremely sacred and powerful being.
"Probably not. I estimate that even the highest-level fire-type ability user is no match for Phoenix," Qi Ling replied.
Duan Xi was somewhat disappointed upon hearing this, "I see."
Xie Tu turned around and glanced at him indifferently, "What are you disappointed about?"
"It's nothing." Duan Xi quickly composed himself, pretending that nothing had happened.
There was a noise coming from the doorway.
The little bluebird and the peregrine falcon finally flew back.
Fire Phoenix followed behind, having just run off not long ago.
As soon as the little bluebird returned, it flew straight to Yun Zhao, perched on her shoulder, and began preening its feathers as soon as it settled.
Yun Zhao reached out and touched it: [What were you doing?]
Little Bluebird: [There are two things in the world that cannot be looked at directly: the sun and the human heart.]
Yun Zhao: [?]
The little bluebird proudly raised its head. [I asked someone; it's written in the notebook.]
Yun Zhao asked curiously, "Who did you ask? Did you find any survivors?"
【Um. 】
Yun Zhao was somewhat suspicious. If the survivor couldn't see the spiritual entity, how did it manage to find someone to ask?
[There's another saying, "Only light can dispel darkness," written in the register.]
No wonder the little bluebird looked familiar.
It had seen this phrase before.
Yun Zhao was clearly taken aback, and forgot to even ask how it did it.
Only light can dispel darkness.
This is a quote from Lao Bai.
In contaminated zone 111, there was a diary entry by a red-crowned crane, and now there are quotes from Lao Bai.
They've been here before!
In the dark ages, when every step was difficult, how did the red-crowned cranes and the old white crane manage to reach the eastern coastal areas?
Yun Zhao suddenly realized that it wasn't the gatekeeper trying to tell them any information, but rather the red-crowned crane!
She left something here!
The sun...a sun motif, is it associated with the end of the Dark Ages?
Did the red-crowned cranes find a way to end the Dark Ages?
wrong!
The timing doesn't match up; red-crowned cranes were active in the middle of the Dark Ages, which ended a century after they left.
Yun Zhao's thoughts raced as he quickly pondered.
If the red-crowned cranes discovered important information, why didn't they just tell the descendants of the Dawn Base?
Instead, the clues should be placed in the contaminated area...
What could the information be?
Should we tell our teammates?
Yun Zhao asked the little bluebird: "Any other discoveries?"
That's all.
Yun Zhao: [How many survivors are there?]
Little Bluebird: [I didn't count.]
All right.
There are survivors, but they can't be found now.
We'll have to wait until Team Zero takes over Island B of Dongyi Town.
Yun Zhao pondered for a moment, then asked the little bluebird, "Do you think... we should tell Xie Tu?"
