The Rebirth of the Last Days and Return to [Fang] Hao

“Ah, are you talking about the two people who jointly killed a third-level zombie last time? I remember one of them was a speed type? They should have a second-level ability, right?” One person thought of this, and asked.

“Yes, the other is a wind ability, which is also very fast. They don’t need to drive; as long as they can contain the zombies and buy time for the team. More special weapons and ammunition will be distributed to those who help.” Yan Xin finally made a decision. It was decided to let people immediately tally the level 2 speed abilities in the army, especially the engineers.

In the end, a total of twelve people were selected, five of which were responsible for driving and refueling. Three of these five were engineers and had very good skills. The remaining five are fighters with strong combat effectiveness. Regardless of their abilities, everyone had the qualities of a sharpshooter at least, and two had earth abilities. Even if they can’t kill zombies quickly, they can help block the movement of those things.

Needless to say, the remaining two are naturally the He Zizhong and Fang Hao pair.

The two who were caught by coolies got out of the car with Guo Bing’s twitching smile, Chen Ning’s sorrow, Yin Dong’s glasses reflection. Since the pair revealed their strength, they have been prepared. It was not surprising to expect this.

It’s only that they have to act with other people, and can’t freely use their hands and feet that’s a bit stifling. However, this was something that the two of them had mentally prepared for before the mission.

“If you encounter danger, enter the space.” It’s better to expose the space than to let their lover experience something unexpected. The couple talked, only to find that the other’s thoughts were the same as their own, and they couldn’t help but laugh.

The number of people participating in this operation was relatively small, because in the past, it was best to be fast and light to avoid attracting zombies when fetching things, so the group of 12 did not drive in.

When there’s no vehicle, they have to pay attention to clearing the road. Can’t let obstacles block the tanker later… this is really difficult. If He Zizhong went in alone, he could simply close the tanker into the space and run back over, but now… he can only find a way to clear the way.

Yan Xin gave this order because it was the road that Lieutenant Zheng and the others traveled. Since they drove through here before, as long as there were no other problems later, the road conditions should not have changed much.

About five hundred meters before arriving at the scheduled intersection, twelve people got off the car early and crossed a small road. The convoy continued to drove forward about two hundred meters slowly according to the predetermined plan, and then stopped on the side of the road. They have to join up after the task is successful, but if they come too early, the smell of human flesh will definitely attract a lot of zombies. If the road is blocked, then even if they’re successful, they won’t be able to come out!

The two parties checked the time and agreed to meet at the intersection ahead in one hour. No matter if they succeed or not, they must retreat to the intersection after 45 minutes. Otherwise, the convoy will not be able to wait for them, and they will be left to fend for themselves.

The speed of this small group is very fast. Except for the seven people who have the advantage in speed, the remaining five are special soldiers. Although their speed is not as fast as those with abilities, it is definitely faster than ordinary people.

He Zizhong and Fang Hao followed along, keeping an eye on the surrounding situation at any time. Because the two of them are accustomed to cooperating, they naturally want to act together. Because of their efficiency before, they were placed in the lead this time by Yan Xin – this is the result of publicly killing a level 3 zombie. If they don’t lead, who will?

“We can’t bypass this area, and have to go ahead forcefully. Follow us, and stay close.” Tuanzi floated in the air while the pair led the team. As long as the two of them closed their eyes, they could see the neighborhood and distribution of zombies with the help of Tuanzi’s vision. Thus, they have always bypassed any zombies, trying to avoid making noise and march inside. However, the zombies in front are too densely distributed, the streets are relatively narrow, and there is no bypass, so they have to take action.

The people behind were all highly qualified soldiers. No one raised objections after hearing the temporary captain speak – the temporary captain of this operation was He Zizhong.

A sharp sword flashed out, Fang Hao took the lead to stab a zombie who turned its head at the smell of human flesh. When the three-pronged dagger was retracted, the zombie fell to the ground with a thud. At the same time, He Zizhong also directly chopped the other zombie to death. Although he wanted to test whether the bullets reformed by Guo Bing and them were effective, they needed to sneak in and did not dare make much movement. It’s better to wait until they retrieve the vehicles.

The twelve people acted like an arrow hidden in the grass, directly spearing through the most hard and difficult part, following behind closely. Seeing the pair constantly harvest zombies ahead, the soldiers who were initially calm, became surprised, and finally numb at the end. They didn’t even use their special weapons, and the ability users responsible for protecting everyone’s safety were completely useless. Their speed and abilities are very different from the pair. Although He Zizhong and Fang Hao tried to lower their speed as much as possible, once they began to fight the zombies, they would rush out to kill them before they could call any companions over. Their actions are too quick. While the speed ability users can keep up, the rest of them can’t.

Moreover, there are not that many zombies on the road He Zizhong picked, so they were completely useless.

Following behind with numb faces, it wasn’t until they reached their goal that they began to prepare. There are numerous zombies hovering at the door of this oil storage point. Because many people have visited since the end of the world, there are naturally many zombies drawn over.

With so many zombies, even the pair wasn’t brave enough to face them alone. Hiding behind a corner, the two silently drank a few sips of space water to replenish their energy. They didn’t consume much before, but there was a tough battle ahead, and they had to be fully prepared.

“There are a lot of zombies. At least seven or eight of them are level 2, and it’s hard to say if there are any level 3 zombies. Let’s grab the attention of the zombies to the advertisement sign over there first. Earth abilities, after the zombies chase you, enter the yard, and temporarily seal the left side of the gate with an earth wall. After we advance, we will block the right side as well. The earthen wall must be one meter high and three meters thick.” He Zizhong observed it for a while, and gave a task to everyone.

Everyone nodded silently, and no one raised objections. When the commander was strong enough, those following would subconsciously obey. Not to mention that these people were soldiers whose job was to listen to commands.

Putting the water away, He Zizhong, who was about to rush out, suddenly “saw” a scene with Tuanzi’s line of sight. Because Tuanzi discovered that all the zombies’ crystal nuclei disappeared the last time everyone left the factory, He Zizhong deliberately asked Tuanzi to explore the way ahead. At the same time, he also focused on those zombies they killed but were unable to collect nuclei from.

Now, there is movement, but the result is much better than the two expected. Something was digging the nuclei out from the killed zombies. But the thing digging nuclei were neither the mutant plants they expected nor people secretly hiding and following them. But zombies.

After the zombies died, other zombies gathered around to dig out crystal nuclei from their compatriots’ heads, and then… swallowed them.

Is this the secret way for zombies to upgrade? Is this where level 2 and 3 zombies come from?

Heart trembling, He Zizhong thought of ability holders and how abilities were stimulated. Does his head also contain a crystal nuclei?

This thought only flashed by. Taking a deep breath, He Zizhong looked at the door not far away firmly.

“Move out!”

Xu Lili shrank back in the logistics truck, bitterly gazing at a piece of leather on the floor. When she was pushed out from the logistics department of the base, she originally thought she could escape through her relationship with Wu Shao. It turns out that even Wu Shao, himself, is participating in this unlucky mission!

Is this a good task? It sounds pretty good. As long as one participates and returns to the base, the benefits, upgrades, and living standards will increase… but who can bear this trip?!

Even more – look at Wu Shao! He obviously stayed in the command car comfortably, but wanted her to squeeze into the truck with these people! There are so many rags that take up space in the truck!

Heart angry, resentment filled her eyes as she glanced around. Some people crowded on the side of the car and quietly pulled up the tarp to look out. The car has been stopped for five minutes. I’m afraid there will be zombies coming soon… Zombies coming over?

A gleam of light flashed in Xu Lili’s eyes. She suddenly got up and ran to the back of the truck, pulling the tarp door open.

“Xu Lili, what are you going to do?! Now is not the break time!” The person in charge of the logistics department yelled, but saw Xu Lili leave the car and ran to the front of the convoy.

She remembers that Wu Shao is on the command vehicle! She listened to his words and poisoned Allen. If he really wants to leave her behind, she will yell it out, and see if he dares stay inside!

“Dong, dong, dong” sounded as the command vehicle door was slammed. Yan Xin frowned and asked someone to open the door. A woman rushed into the car and plunged directly into the arms of Wu Geng who was frowning and eating compressed biscuits.

“Wu Shao, I’ve lived enough on the truck! If you don’t care about, I might as well say something!”

Wu Geng was already choking on compressed biscuits, and even more so when Xu Lili bashed in this moment. After coughing a long time and patting his chest, he finally cleared it up with a few mouthfuls of mineral water. Only then did he see Xu Lili’s face clearly, and his face became even darker.
