Volume 2 The more labor you bring, the greater your responsibility Chapter 60 Warning! Zombie Swarm Warning!
"Huh? A call from the D City government...why are you looking for me?"
Shen Jin answered the phone, and Xia Anbang's voice came from the other end: "Lu Qiang... uh, should I call you Shen Jin?"
"Ah? Haha~! Really? I have this nickname? What's wrong? Tell me what you think!"
Shen Jin knew that this kind of thing would not withstand investigation. After meeting, the other party would have many ways to find out his real information through photos, rumors, and even infiltration.
Because he had not used an alias since he came to City D, everyone knew him as Shen Jin. He made the first phone call in order not to attract attention, for fear that government officials would follow the Internet cable and capture him and slice him up. But it was obvious that he was worrying too much.
Now that he has met with the head of Tianluodiwang, his attitude is unexpectedly good. He is very easy to talk to and not pedantic. He has not used the remarks of free surrender to pressure him.
In that exchange, he also obtained the ordinary energy crystal core and the first-level energy crystal core that he urgently needed. It was a win-win situation.
Therefore, if there is a chance in the future, Shen Jin still plans to do business with the government, and it would be better if both parties were more honest.
Xia Anbang didn't dwell on this matter. Just as Hu Shou said, "It doesn't matter whether the cat is black or white, a cat that can catch mice is a good cat." No matter whether Shen Jin is honest or not, he is a good citizen as long as he can contribute to China. Moreover... in today's world, it's always right to be cautious. The government has also suffered a large number of casualties due to some carelessness.
"There are two main reasons why I called you this time. First, the [Extractor] you provided last time has been officially put into use in the Tianluodiwang Laboratory. It has achieved good results and has made a huge contribution to our country's research on energy medicine. Mr. Zhao specifically asked me to commend you and tell you that the government will always support you. If you have any difficulties, you can always ask us for help!"
"Haha, Colonel Xia, I'm glad you can help. There are no difficulties for the time being. Everything is fine here. There is no need to worry about safety," Shen Jin said confidently.
"Oh, the second thing is, we have observed through satellite photos in the past few days that the zombies in the center of the Lukou District are moving southward, forming a zombie tide of more than 50,000, and it is constantly increasing. If nothing unexpected happens, the end point of the zombie tide will be... near Hongshui Bay!"
"Zombie Tide!!!"
w(°Д°)w
Shen Jin suddenly lost his composure.
"Yes, that's what satellite observations show. We don't rule out the possibility that they will stop or change direction, but the probability happening is relatively small. If they continue to move in the same trend as in the past few days, in three days, there will be about 70,000 zombies reaching Hongshui Bay," Xia Anbang explained seriously.
Shen Jin's mind was flooded with images of the overwhelming zombie army, the terrifying M1, L1, and compound-eyed zombies. They are coming again! ?
"Colonel Xia, I need the government's support! Urgently!" Shen Jin was anxious. He couldn't let these zombies destroy the base he had worked so hard to build!
Xia Anbang was silent for a moment, then said, "The government can assist you in retreating... We will help you arrange a retreat route. Once you use your earth-related abilities to reach the designated location from underground, our people will accept you into the D City shelter settlement!"
"Retreat? This...I need to...think about it again!"
Shen Jin looked up at the large flat plots of land at the base, the workshops with abundant supplies, the neatly arranged matchbox huts, the stone pillar street lamps, as well as the laid electrical wires, network cables and the local area network that covered the entire Hongshui Bay base.
This is all his family business!
Xia Anbang had anticipated Shen Jin's reply. "Currently, the zombies have just left the urban area of Lvkou District and are expected to arrive at the Hongshuiwan Base in 3 days. You must make a decision within 2 days, otherwise... it will be difficult for you to retreat. According to our understanding, the evolution of zombies has undergone many mutations. Some zombies can spit out black bugs. Their life cycle is extremely short, but they are very aggressive. They can devour various energies to grow rapidly. There are also female zombies who are good at jumping. They are extremely fast and difficult to defend... Although your wall is high, it lacks effective ground attack methods, and they will be worn down by them!"
Xia Anbang said a lot in one breath, because Hu Shou said that this was a crisis, but also an opportunity, an opportunity to pull Shen Jin into the government camp. No matter whether he was a level 2 earth-type mutant or had unimaginable inventive and creative abilities, he was a target worthy of a city's strong wooing.
Hu Shou's last words left a deep impression on Xia Anbang: "The [Extractor] brought from Shen Jin, all the scientists at the Tianluodiwang Research Institute... have not been able to thoroughly study its working principle. The level of technology inside has exceeded the upper limit of what the country has mastered! It is very likely that some kind of technological superpower appeared in Shen Jin's base, otherwise the appearance of this equipment cannot be explained. The D City government must find him! This is an extremely rare talent, a national strategic talent, and we must not let him go!"
Therefore, Xia Anbang wholeheartedly analyzed the severity of this zombie tide with Shen Jin, which was equivalent to throwing an olive branch to Shen Jin, allowing him to make his own choice. The government would cooperate with the rescue, thereby improving the relationship between the two sides. Once they arrived at the settlement on the government side, they could have a good talk.
They want both Shen Jin and that mysterious technological psychic.
Shen Jin stroked his chin and thought for a moment, "Okay, I understand. Thank you for your kindness. We need to take a long-term view and discuss it carefully!"
us?
Xia Anbang keenly discovered the loophole in Shen Jin's words. It seems that he does have a partner, and a partner with similar abilities. Who knows, maybe he is the technological mutant hidden behind the scenes.
"Okay! We must make a quick decision. We also need to deploy personnel in advance!"
"Um……"
Shen Jin felt mixed emotions after hanging up the phone.
After a while...
Shen Jin returned to the workshop, looking at the map of D City, calculating the distance between the zombie tide and himself, "Haha~! Three days, will there be another destruction in three days? Like Q City, will my carefully arranged base be destroyed? No, this time I have the government as my friend, and I still have two days to prepare. I have enough time to transport all the important things away, and there will be no casualties. This is already the best result, but... I am unwilling to accept it! Why do I have to flee again? Why are the zombies targeting me?"
Shen Jin didn't know whether he was the one who attracted the zombies or just happened to be on the route where the zombies moved.
"If we don't retreat... how can we resist 70,000 zombies? The M1 and L1 zombies are coming again... who knows, there may be more deformed and evolved zombies this time. The swollen zombies, harpy zombies, and jet zombies are all tricky monsters. Xia Anbang is right. We lack the means to attack the ground. The [bow] is too funny. This kind of [bow] made of ordinary materials has difficulty hitting ordinary zombies, let alone evolved zombies. Maybe the only ones that can attack the ground are my gun and howitzer, but... I can't beat them by myself!"
"No... Let's think about it another way. Why wait for them to attack us? Maybe we can..."
Shen Jin's eyes lit up and he thought of a good tactic.
At this time, a cheerful voice came from outside, "Wuhu~! It's bad, it's bad! Shen Jin, hurry! Hurry! Run, the zombie tide is coming! There are so many zombies!!!"
A Spider-Man with a charging stand on his back and wearing a solar-powered helmet jumped over from outside the fence.
