Volume 2 The more labor you bring, the greater your responsibility Chapter 69: Fireworks at the Front Line
It's getting darker...
Zhao Chao kept his eyes on the tide of zombies. They were about to enter the Xianghai Community and the Heping Coast Community. Only after passing these two communities could the tide of zombies see the wall of the Hongshui Bay Base.
"Boss, we're getting closer... closer... to the door!"
"Boom!!!"
From a distance, everyone saw the huge ball of flames and black smoke that emerged from the powerful explosion, which lifted the zombies above more than 10 meters high.
The zombie tide stepped on the first [T NT]!
It is set up at the entrance of Xianghai Community, which is a naturally narrow terrain. There are two security booths between the two buildings and a gate in the middle. Whenever zombies pass through here, they will inevitably gather together. A large number of zombies will squeeze together from being scattered. At this time, the front zombie steps on the [cobblestone pressure pedal] and the [TNT] is ignited. Two seconds later, Boom!
The huge explosive force expanded from the [TNT] mine as the center, directly blowing up an area!
Hundreds of zombies were huddled together, their bodies were blown away, and their broken limbs were scattered all over the ground...
The speed of the surging tide of corpses slowed down for a moment.
In the center of the zombie tide, there was a huge swollen zombie that was 10 meters tall. On the flesh of its shoulder sat a big-headed zombie with tentacles on its head. It made a strange sound of "Ho ho~!" from its mouth, commanding the zombie tide to move forward continuously. The surrounding zombies also followed the sound and came over, joining the zombie tide and becoming one of them.
If Shen Jin could see it, he would be able to recognize at a glance that this was a controlled zombie!
It has the ability to transform zombie genes and catalyze M1 and L1 zombies. Moreover, after death, it can be resurrected according to the genes it left behind and turn back into this big-headed appearance. However, this one has not evolved the terrifying compound eyes, so... it may not have the mind-shaking ability of the last zombie.
In a flash, the zombie horde came again. The loss of several hundred zombies was of no concern to them, and the big-headed zombie in the middle didn't even blink an eye.
On the 50-meter-high wall of the outer area, everyone cheered!
"Haha! Boss! The bomb you made worked! It blew up a large area, but they still kept moving forward! The Peace Coast community next door is also coming... coming, coming!"
"Boom!"
Zhao Chao was even interested in adding a sound to the explosion in the distance.
The same way, the same community entrance, different community, another large group of zombies crowded together were blown away!
Shen Jin and his friends were eager to see the scene, but they could only vaguely see the fire explosion and had to rely on Zhao Chao's live broadcast.
"And then what? Did the zombie tide change? Did you let the zombies explore the way?"
Shen Jin couldn't wait to know what happened next. The biggest problem with his stepping-on trigger trap was that he was afraid of stepping on landmines!
A zombie running in front can trade one for one with a high-explosive [TNT].
This is something Shen Jin cannot accept!
Zhao Chao carefully observed the movement of the zombies. After a moment, he said, "It's okay, boss! They don't seem to be smart enough. The zombies are still moving. The zombies are huge, one pressing against the other. They didn't stop at all. They used their bodies to fill the big hole they created and continued to move... No! There are a few jet zombies eating the corpses of the zombies that were blown up!"
Zhu Dan interrupted, "Is it one of those hairless green monsters? I've killed a few of them before. They survive by eating zombies. They have a lot of offspring in their stomachs, which they can eject instantly. They eat whatever they see. It's so scary!"
Shen Jin smiled and said, "If it wasn't to prevent these zombies from spraying everywhere, why would I build such a high wall?"
They had been prepared for this kind of zombies, and even if they were not afraid of those black bugs, they could not allow them to be sprayed in and eat up the houses in the outer area.
Next, the zombie horde pressed forward, and explosions occurred from time to time in the two residential areas and the street in between. At the angle between the two buildings: "Boom!"
Fountain Landscape Area: "Boom!"
At the entrance of the internet-famous milk tea shop: “Boom!”
With the loud explosions sounded by Zhao Chaopei, the zombie tide began to decrease in number rapidly. A few hundred at a time was not scary, but what about 10 or 20 times?
Shen Jin placed 200 pedal-triggered [TNT] devices in the two residential areas that he had to pass through and the street in between!
Even though the density of zombies in some later locations is not so high, dozens of them can still be blown away each time, and all zombies below the L-shaped level will be blown to pieces!
The bodies of the M-type zombies could not withstand such a violent explosion, and they would die within the coverage area of the explosion. The upper body of an M-type zombie that was blown in half was still crawling on the ground, and was swallowed by the sprayed zombie with its mouth opened.
“Crack, crack, crack~!”
No need to spit out the bones...
The zombie tide was getting closer, and Shen Jin could see it clearly with a telescope. Everyone watched as [TNT] was detonated one after another. The zombie troops continued to lose members, leaving only a few L-shaped zombies with thick skin and flesh still standing. However, most of them had their feet blown to pieces, making it difficult for them to move, and were soon trampled by the zombie tide.
Suddenly, the last ray of sunlight disappeared, the sun set completely, and darkness fell!
The tide of zombies seemed to have received a unified signal and stopped instantly, and then everyone stood still.
"It seems... the zombies have no energy to replenish at night, so their mobility has dropped significantly... they should be resting in the community today!"
Shen Jin and his team had already analyzed this situation. The zombies would arrive at night and would most likely not move forward. After all, their body energy was limited. Judging from the zombies' rotting bodies, they had not eaten human flesh for a long time and could only rely on their green hair to absorb solar energy to maintain their mobility.
Professor Liu Mang is right. The zombie virus cannot transcend the law of conservation of energy. Their lack of energy will cause them to have low mobility and they may even not have the strength to attack people.
"Everyone, take turns to send messages. Two people will be on duty on the wall. Lao Zhao, you make the arrangements!"
"good!"
The top of the wall was 5 meters wide, which was enough for Shen Jin to build rooms. Shen Jin threw out a series of pebbles and quickly made 12 small rooms. Each room had 2 single woolen beds and a furnace full of coal.
You must maintain a good mental state before the battle, otherwise the zombies will have rested enough, and the morning sun will shine down and they will be full of energy again, while your side will be sluggish, which will greatly affect morale and combat effectiveness.
Zhao Chao began to select people to keep watch at night, and Shen Jin and Shang Qian went into the small room in the middle.
"How is it? Are you scared?" Once entering the private space, Shen Jin was no longer the boss of so , nor did he need to deliberately maintain his and Shang Qian's dignity. He was just an ordinary otaku. This was his leader colleague before the end of the world and now his girlfriend.
"One thing, Shen Jin... I thought of Mo Xiao..."
“Ah…” Shen Jin sighed, “Me too, I’m so useless. I have such powerful abilities but I didn’t use them. In the end, I let my niece… protect us. Oh, and Yang Ao, Lao Fu, and Su Lele, they were all left there… These are all my… companions. Damn zombies! Damn zombie tide!”
Shen Jin slapped the bed, feeling helpless and furious.
Shang Qian didn't look like the calm and composed manager outside. She murmured, "When we left... they hadn't been attacked by zombies yet. Do you think...?"
Shen Jin shook his head firmly: "There is no point in avoiding the facts. In that situation, we will die if we stay a little longer..." At this point, Shen Jin's eyes became more determined: "So, I won't escape, not this time! Even if I don't succeed in the end, at least it proves that I have struggled and worked hard here! I fought the zombie tide with their will! One day! I will lead my people back to Q City, kill all the zombies, and bury them with them! I can do it! Definitely!"
Shen Jin's eyes were full of determination, he couldn't feel at ease to build another paradise to retire and wait for death. The first person who took him in three months after the apocalypse fought to the death to protect him, he had to avenge his niece, and no zombie in Q city could escape!
Shang Qian looked at Shen Jin with blurry eyes. He had a confidence that was beyond her comprehension. She was deeply fascinated by it. "I believe in you! Let me be your umbrella and fight with you!"
Shang Qian pushed the bed over, got in bed with Shen Jin, and took Shen Jin's hand and put it under her neck, just like the first time...
But this time, the two of them just slept in each other's arms, enjoying the last calm before the storm.
