Chapter 313 Common Tactics
Yun Zhao naturally noticed the rabbit's actions as well, and frowned slightly. "A survivor has arrived?"
The journey to the military base is long, the roads are blocked by zombies, and they also need to transport ammunition, so it shouldn't be that fast.
When Xie Tu and his group left, each of them carried a thick stack of leaflets, intending to distribute them along the streets to attract more survivors to the military base.
If anyone sees this, they will definitely try their best to come over.
The zombies on the other side were lured away by Xie Tu and his group, leaving only a few scattered ones wandering aimlessly nearby.
But even this small number of zombies is enough to give an ordinary person a hard time.
"The bridges are all broken!"
"Boss, there are still zombies in the water, how do we get across?"
"Here! There are two small boats, quick! Get on board!"
Yun Zhao sensed the location of the little blue bird, stood up, and dusted off his hands. "Let's go and confirm the identities of those people first."
The little bluebird didn't react, so it probably wasn't the one that attracted the person.
The rabbit followed Yun Zhao closely. The group came out of the warehouse and went around to the back of the hotel.
At a glance, six burly men could be seen paddling two small boats that Xie Tu had moored on the opposite bank, struggling to swim towards the other side.
There are zombies active in the water.
Apart from a few people rowing frantically, everyone else held blood-stained watermelon knives in their hands, staring intently at the water with tense expressions.
Once the boat capsizes, there is almost no chance of survival if you fall into the water.
There is no safe place left in the entire city.
Finding the flyer was an accident.
A map was meticulously included, clearly showing that Island B of Dongyi Town had been cleared out and was the only safe base in the city.
They had to fight to the death to get to the island and have a chance to survive.
"Six people again?" The rabbit was confused. "What does six represent?"
The three waves of survivors I encountered all had a base number of six.
The only difference is that all six of them this time are men.
Upon hearing this, Yun Zhao also began to ponder.
This could not possibly be a coincidence; the number six must have some special significance.
Like the sun pattern, it seems to be deliberately reminding them of something.
Is it a gatekeeper? Or a red-crowned crane?
In just a short while, the six people had already paddled to the other side. Ignoring the people standing on the shore, they quickly pushed themselves up and tried to climb ashore.
It was impossible to stand steadily on the boat.
The boat rocked violently when they jumped, and they couldn't climb up no matter how hard they tried.
Seeing the zombies approaching from the water, the six people were extremely anxious.
"Hey! You two, come and help us out!" One of the men, a burly man with a buzz cut, ordered Liao Yuxuan and his companion in a menacing tone.
They were all muscular, and they were holding watermelon knives tightly in their hands; they didn't look like people to mess with.
Liao Yuxuan subconsciously looked at Yun Zhao.
The question in his eyes was obvious: were they really going to let these people onto the island?
The officers returned at some unknown time.
Of the two female soldiers, only one seemed capable of fighting; the other were ordinary people, and being women, they were no match for these six muscular men.
Yun Zhao nodded, "Pull them up."
Liao Yuxuan had no choice.
She's in charge on the island now.
They had spent two days with the soldiers and had already seen clearly that, apart from Commander Xie, all the other soldiers listened to Commander Yun.
Although Liao Yuxuan was unwilling, he could not go against her wishes, so he and another boy ran over and pulled her up.
Qi Ling moved closer to Yun Zhao and the rabbit, whispering, "This is a classic scene in post-apocalyptic novels. All post-apocalyptic stories feature villainous supporting characters like this, usually used to highlight the protagonist and give them a slap in the face."
Qi Ling was extremely familiar with these novel tropes.
Six men who looked fierce and were full of brute force—the standard setup for villainous supporting characters.
Qi Ling explained the upcoming developments to Yun Zhao and Rabbit in detail.
After these six people land, they will see the supplies being moved, and then they will find that there are only a few of them on the island, most of whom are female college students. Then they will have evil intentions and want to take over the island.
Next, either the protagonist team's extraordinary abilities will shock them, or they will suffer the consequences of their selfishness and greed in their subsequent actions.
Or the protagonist could show ruthlessness and throw these people into the water to feed the zombies!
Anyway, there are only a few common plot devices in novels.
"When the captain and the others return, that will be the moment they prove us wrong," Qi Ling said confidently.
The rabbit was stunned and couldn't help but ask, "Why does the highlight belong to the captain, and not to us?"
She's amazing!
Killing six muscular men is easier than killing zombies.
Moreover, Sister Yun Zhao hasn't made a move yet; Sister Yun Zhao's mental threads will cause the mutants to reveal themselves on the spot.
Qi Ling was taken aback by her question, and after thinking for a while, she said, "It depends on whether it's a male-oriented or female-oriented story of face-slapping, but I read more male-oriented stories..."
Yun Zhao has already discovered it.
Qi Ling was a huge fan of novels. Ever since they rescued him, he'd been fantasizing about being the protagonist, imagining they were going to take him to a research institute for dissection, and about some kind of rebirth and revenge story...
He's directly incorporating the No. 111 contaminated zone into a post-apocalyptic novel plot.
The six people on the other side had already been pulled ashore by Liao Yuxuan.
Six burly men plopped down on the shore, panting.
Two of them lingered on the girls, their eyes unabashedly revealing their ill intentions.
Qi Ling instinctively stood in front of Yun Zhao and the rabbit, blocking their view.
Qi Ling secretly grumbled to himself.
Is this his moment of glory, rescuing a damsel in distress?
There are many such plots in male-oriented novels.
The burly man didn't care that his view was blocked; his gaze swept over the graceful figures of the other female college students.
One of the bald, burly men swallowed hard, his Adam's apple bobbing. He then deliberately nudged his companion with his elbow. The two exchanged a glance and let out a low, sinister laugh.
The four female college students were so frightened that they backed away.
The rabbit was getting annoyed and poked Qi Ling with the barrel of its gun. "Give me your special gloves."
These people are like they're blind; she's carrying such a big gun, and she still dares to provoke them.
We have to beat them until they cry for their parents.
Upon hearing this, Qi Ling silently offered up her gloves.
Next up is Rabbit's solo performance.
The rabbit put on the special gloves, its eyes flashing with anger, and walked steadily toward the six burly men.
First, he kicked all their watermelon knives into the water.
Before the six people could react, the rabbit's fist had already landed.
She threw a punch, striking the burly man precisely in the abdomen. The force was so great that the man flew backward and crashed heavily to the ground with a painful groan.
Seeing this, the other burly men realized that the girl in front of them was no pushover, and they all looked surprised and quickly stood up to attack the rabbit.
Would the rabbits give them that chance?
She moved again, weaving between several burly men, using both fists and feet, each strike precise and powerful.
Immediately, cries of agony rose and fell from the shore.
Qi Ling felt somewhat depressed upon seeing this scene.
His moment of glory has faded.
He turned his head and said to Yun Zhao with a serious expression, "This is definitely a female-oriented novel!"
Yun Zhao ignored him and silently watched the six people groaning on the ground.
Qi Ling's words seemed to have given her an idea...
What does the number six represent?
