This is what the 300th octopus looks like.
Six more survivors?
Seven people stood outside the aquarium. The walls of the aquarium at the entrance had collapsed, and shards of glass were scattered all over the ground, mixed with dried and hardened sea salt, making a crunching sound.
The peregrine falcon flew in alone first.
Duan Xi briefly described the situation inside: "There are zombies inside, about a dozen in number, and the six people are hiding in a workshop."
The location is very secluded; it's a workspace behind the glass exhibition hall of the penguin exhibit.
You can't get in from the outside; you have to go through the employee entrance.
It's hard for ordinary people to notice.
Tao Haohao released his senses, and then, as if realizing something, his face turned horrified. "Could it be those six students again?"
Duan Xi: "It shouldn't be."
should?
What's the meaning?
"Those six people were wearing motorcycle rider protective suits and helmets, so we couldn't see their faces," Duan Xi explained.
There are quite a few differences between the men's and women's styles of armor; he determines the gender based on body shape.
As for the helmet, it must have been put on after hearing the sound of their armored vehicles.
It has to be said.
These six are much smarter than the students from before. Look at the thickness of their helmets; the zombies can't even bite them.
Armored suits provide excellent protection for the body and allow for extremely nimble movement, clearly indicating a seasoned veteran who is well-versed in survival skills.
"But in post-apocalyptic novels, survivors always run to places with more safe supplies. If they are so good at survival, why are they hiding in aquariums?"
Qi Ling knows more about the zombie apocalypse than anyone else.
Since he discovered that he had become a normal person, he has gradually become more talkative. "Humans usually target supermarkets first, competing for daily necessities and food."
Only with food can the survivors live.
He never noticed any main or supporting characters in the novels that went to the aquarium.
"Probably because the area is rich in resources and food, and most importantly, no one is stealing from it."
Yun Zhao thought for a moment and said, "There are zombies everywhere in the city, so it's not really safe anywhere. The passageways inside the aquarium are well hidden, and there are locked iron gates everywhere. As long as the staff passages are closed, people outside won't be able to find them."
The map shows the way.
Ocean Park is divided into the Sunshine Oceanarium and the Four Seasons Flower and Bird Garden.
This place not only has marine life, but also various birds and animals.
With so many animals to keep, the management usually buys and stores large quantities of food regularly.
Fish, shrimp, fruits, and vegetables should all be available.
These stockpiled foods are safe for human consumption and will not spoil even after being stored in cold storage for a long time.
Furthermore, the aquarium's circulation system and water treatment equipment provide clean water, which also means that there must be an independent power generation system to ensure the safety of the animals during power outages.
A closed and safe refuge space with water, food, and no one to fight over it.
It's an absolutely perfect place.
“They really are smart,” the rabbit said, his tone very complicated.
Even the smartest person is helpless in the face of a dark apocalypse.
They only have a chance to survive in the zombie apocalypse created by the gatekeepers.
Duan Xi remained noncommittal, then turned to Xie Tu, "Captain, shall we go straight in?"
Xie Tu nodded and said calmly, "Leave two spirit beings to watch the car and keep an eye on the situation outside. The rest of you go inside."
The brown bear and the king chameleon remained in the car.
Duan Xi and his group led the way, Yun Zhao and Qi Ling walked in the middle, and Xie Tu brought up the rear.
The moment they stepped into the aquarium, it felt as if they had traversed a rift in time and space, stepping from a world ravaged by destruction and overrun by zombies into another dimension that was both unfamiliar and dreamlike.
The people walking in front unconsciously slowed their pace.
His eyes gleamed with disbelief.
Soft, dim lighting from above streamed through the large glass windows into the spacious and tranquil hall.
The enormous aquariums stood silently before them, like transparent dreams.
Inside, colorful marine life swims, seemingly unaffected by the apocalyptic scene outside, leisurely moving among the coral reefs and seaweed, creating their own tranquil world.
If you ignore the bloodstains and dismembered limbs on the ground, and the zombies that turn around and pounce on them at the sound of the noise, this place seems like another world.
With the gun equipped with a silencer, almost every shot blew the zombies' heads off.
Yun Zhao stared intently at the colorful fish, "So this is what fish look like? They're so beautiful..."
The little bluebird, perched on her head, stared in disbelief, its eyes wide and unblinking.
[So beautiful! I'll take it home!]
Unfortunately, no living creature can carry it out of the contaminated area.
Everyone walked slower and slower.
Like Grandma Liu visiting the Grand View Garden, they were all deeply attracted by the strange sight before them.
Team Zero didn't seem to be in a hurry to find the six survivors.
People inside won't run away.
They pressed themselves against the glass, gazing in wonder at all sorts of marine life.
What kind of fish is this?
"Wow, look at that! It's huge!"
Seeing that they seemed unsophisticated, Qi Ling didn't dare to urge them and obediently followed along, turning their mission into a visit to the ocean park.
A peregrine falcon somehow wandered into an exhibition hall and curiously stood on the back of a sea turtle, letting the turtle drag it along slowly.
Seeing this, the little bluebird flapped its wings, its whole body became transparent, and it passed through the glass into the sea turtle's room.
A bright red tadpole followed closely behind.
The three spirit entities started playing around like that.
Apart from the two broken aquariums at the entrance, almost all the equipment and facilities inside were intact, and most of the marine life was still alive.
The power system is still operating normally.
"It seems that the apocalypse imagined by the gatekeeper didn't happen for long."
Xie Tu remained calm and composed throughout. He strolled behind Yun Zhao, raised his hand and killed a zombie that was chasing him, and said, "Twenty minutes for the tour, then back to work!"
"yes!"
The team members responded happily, including Yun Zhao.

Inside the staff entrance of Ocean Park.
Six helmeted survivors, armed with modified knives, huddled behind a tightly closed iron gate.
The group waited and waited, but they never heard the person outside leave.
"Are they other survivors?"
"With so many zombies outside, how did they get here?"
"Yuxuan, shall we go out and take a look?"
The young man named Yu Xuan's voice came through his helmet, "Ignore them. They probably haven't found us yet. They'll leave when they can't find the supplies."
Judging from their voices, all six of them sounded very young.
They assumed the people outside had come in looking for supplies.
The six of them hid all the food. As long as they weren't discovered, they figured the group would leave soon.
They knew nothing about it.
The playful peregrine falcon had somehow wandered into the passageway again and was hopping around the six people's feet.
Outside.
After the Zero Team finished their tour, they began searching for marine life samples and collecting all the resources they could take with them.
Song Liang discovered a batch of fish eggs, as well as several penguin eggs.
"Do you think that if an unhatched organism is taken out, it will mutate?"
Upon hearing this, the rabbit exclaimed, "Why don't we give it a try?"
"I'll go find a cage!" Duan Xi immediately sprang into action.
