"Return to the team?" Suspicion flashed across the face of the car-level zombie, obviously not believing it, "Where is your large army?"
Seeing that the other party started to ask about the specific destination, Zhang Jike lowered his eyelids and touched his nose.
If he told the truth, the general-level zombies hiding in the dark might go immediately.
Although he doesn't know what the defense power of the Siming Mountain Refuge is, it would definitely not be good to bring trouble back.
But if he didn't tell the truth, Ji Donghai would be tortured, and the three of them might not be able to leave alive.
So after pondering for a moment, Zhang Jike raised his face and stumbled as if he couldn't remember the details.
"It seems to be a shelter called Siguniang Mountain...but I really don't know the specific location. After all, this kind of shelter is a military important place, and we, the big-headed soldiers, didn't know it until we arrived."
"Don't know the exact location?"
The car-level zombie's dark purple eyes narrowed slightly, staring suspiciously at the hazy sleepy eyes opposite him.
After watching it for a long time, the car-level zombie opened its ugly mouth and said, "It seems you really don't want him to feel better, that's all. Why don't you let Private No. 1 rip off one of his legs and eat it first..."
After saying that, the car-level zombie stretched out his hand, trying to tear Ji Donghai's right leg apart.
Ji Donghai, on the other hand, was twisting desperately, using the last bit of effect brought by his own ability to break free.
But under the power of the fourth-level vehicle, his little struggle was completely ineffective, and instead seemed a bit ridiculous.
Just when the car-level zombie's big hand pinched the man's right leg and was about to pull it off, Zhang Jike suddenly spoke out.
"etc!"
"Are you ready to tell the truth?" The car-level zombie's eyes narrowed, with a proud look on his face.
"Well, my life is in your hands anyway..." Zhang Jike sighed, with an aura of decadence all over his body.
"However, the location of the shelter is an important military secret. There are my comrades there, and they are all brothers..."
There was a hint of doubt in the eyes of the car-level zombie.
Facing the other party's dark purple pupils, Zhang Jike spoke solemnly.
"You have to promise some benefits, otherwise if I tell you this, then the three of us will have to become your food rations?"
"Do you still dare to negotiate terms with me?" The car-level zombie smiled very happily, with his terrifying big mouth grinning almost to the base of his ears.
"Or you can choose to kill the three of us directly, but in that case, you won't get any news."
Zhang Jike spoke calmly and raised his right arm slightly.
The surface of his skin shimmered with blue lines, exuding a strange fluorescence, and it seemed that he was ready to die together.
Glancing at the middle-aged soldier's arm, the car-level zombie sneered and threw Jidonghai to the ground.
The eyelids slowly closed, and when they opened again, the dark purple inside had turned into red.
The spiritual sense of wisdom completely receded, and the three-meter-tall muscular monster turned into a savage beast again in front of Zhang Jike.
Crisp applause came from behind the three people, accompanied by a clear and sweet female voice.
"It's amazing. None of you soldiers are afraid of death..."
The three of them turned their heads when they heard the sound, and found a pleasant-looking girl walking out from behind the gun-level zombies.
A pure white short-sleeved shirt, paired with a dark blue striped sailor skirt, and exquisite leather boots that reflect beautiful arcs in the sun.
The fair skin does not need any makeup, and the look can be broken by a blow, indicating the fact that its owner is not very old.
Full of youthful atmosphere.
But this beautiful scene of youth turned into another horrific scene in the eyes of the three soldiers.
"Purple Eyes... really a general-level zombie..."
Just like the prisoners who were sentenced to death in court, except for Zhang Jike who was still calm, Ma Long and Jidonghai both felt their hearts tightening and felt that their breathing was stagnant.
Before the girl could walk slowly in front of Zhang Jike, the car-level zombie on the side took the first step, clinging to the girl like a loyal deadpool.
Zhang Jike and others have no doubt that if they make the slightest move, this vicious creature will immediately take action and crush them into powder without mercy!
Under the gazes of the three people, the girl slowly stopped with a smile on her face, tilted her body, and leaned against the car-level zombie in a leisurely manner.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Lin Tanying, and this is my right-hand man, Soldier No. 1."
After saying that, the girl did not forget to raise her chin at the car-level zombie, with a proud expression on her face.
"Although as you said, once I kill you, I won't get any information, but you have to know that you are not the only ones who have the information. I have plenty of time, so I can continue to wait here..."
While speaking, Lin Tanying glanced meaningfully at the middle-aged soldier opposite.
"...As long as I wait for someone who is afraid of death, I can still get the information I want..."
Zhang Jike frowned, obviously understanding the meaning of the girl's words.
In fact, the location of the Siming Mountain shelter is not a secret. After all, when the disaster first broke out, the government had already made a full-scale broadcast.
Although the survivors may not be able to find them successfully, it is only a matter of time before the coordinates are exposed.
And to put it a step back, even if Lin Tanying is willing to let the three of them leave alive, it doesn't mean that the people in the Siming Mountain Refuge will not be in danger.
After all, the other party was a wise being, and Zhang Jike could not guarantee that Lin Tanying would not follow him secretly or secretly learn the location of the Siming Mountain Refuge.
After thinking for a moment, Zhang Jike shrugged, looking helpless, "It seems we have no choice."
A bright smile appeared on the girl's face: "The Great Dao is fifty, Tianyan is forty-nine, smart people always have a chance of survival."
"Okay, okay, we did not lie to you about our identity. It's just that the big soldier didn't run away. The destination we are heading to is called Siming Mountain Shelter."
The middle-aged soldier spread his hands and said honestly.
After hearing this answer, Lin Tanying did not react immediately. Instead, he tilted his head slightly, as if he was listening to something.
After a moment, a playful smile appeared on the girl's lips.
"You seem to be...still lying, but you are indeed a lot more honest than before."
Hearing this, Zhang Jike's eyes quickly flashed with a trace of unnoticeable fear.
The girl in front of me seems to have a way of knowing whether she is lying!
"Is it an ability similar to mind reading?"
Zhang Jike secretly thought that although he knew more about general-level zombies than Ji Donghai, in the end he only had a superficial understanding.
After all, this special type of mutated zombie is a top secret in the military, and only a few high-ranking beings can know about it.
However, just as the middle-aged soldier was thinking about it, Lin Tanying, the general-level zombie opposite, smiled coquettishly and said again.
"Don't look at me like that, I can't read minds."
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Jike's face became gloomier.
"You'd better kill the three of us. I just betrayed the military information to you just to survive. What's the difference between that and treason? It's better to die cleanly than to do that."
Changing from his previous attitude of 'it's okay to talk', Zhang Jike's words suddenly became extremely tough.
"Hey, hey, I just teased you, why are you still angry..."
Lin Tanying's eyebrows were curved, and her smile turned into two purple crescents.
He did not continue to communicate with Zhang Jike, but raised his right hand and waved behind him.
"Everyone come out."
Following the girl's command, the trees on both sides of the road shook violently, and figures of all sizes walked or ran, emerging from them one by one.
There was no need for verbal communication, no need for the girl to give orders. These terrifying existences seemed to have been rehearsed countless times, and each one quietly found their rightful place next to the girl.
During the whole process, Zhang Jike and Ma Long carefully looked at everything in front of them, trying to use their unconscious memory to completely record the scene in front of them.
If there is a very small chance that a large force can be found, the scene in front of you is definitely very important information.
Although Jidonghai, who was sitting on the ground, did not take notes as carefully as Ma Long and Zhang Jike, he was still shocked by the scene in front of him.
You know, he is a real big-headed soldier, and he doesn't know that there is a general-level branch of intelligence among mutant zombies.
If it hadn't been for his overwhelming luck today, he might have stuck to his previous belief that zombies are just brainless monsters.
Mutated zombies of various shapes and shapes quickly surrounded the girl. Among them, the car-level zombie closest to Lin Tanying reached out with one arm and lifted the girl lightly on his shoulder.
"I said, I don't want to kill you three. Strictly speaking, I don't want to kill you."
The green jade finger was a little empty and pointed at Zhang Jike's face.
"Your identity must not be simple, and you must know a lot of information about where to go..."
"I won't tell you unless you use your weird mind-reading ability to directly steal it."
Before the girl could finish speaking, Zhang Jike took the lead and cut off the line.
"Some things are more important than life."
Lin Tanying shook his head slightly, with a helpless smile on his face: "So, it would be quite bad to meet a few people who are not afraid of death, but it's okay, I don't plan to ask anything from you right away."
"The main reason why I stopped you halfway is to tell you something."
The girl's eyebrows are curved, as if she has always been so cute and amiable.
"What?" Zhang Jike responded.
"There is danger ahead..."
Putting his elbow on the bald head of the car-level zombie, Lin Tanying leaned back and pointed behind him randomly.
"Less than five kilometers away from here, there is also a general-level undead tribe. Oh, in your words, it should be called a general-level zombie."
"I would like to remind you that he is not as easy to talk to as me. Don't lose your life when he passes by."
After the girl finished speaking, the entire group of corpses began to move towards the woods on the side of the road.
Judging from that appearance, he actually planned to leave and stop causing trouble to the three soldiers.
Even Zhang Jike didn't expect that Lin Tanying would let them leave easily. After being stunned for a moment, he couldn't help but ask.
"You just... left?"
"Otherwise, if you refuse to tell me the truth and are not afraid of death, I won't be able to get anything out of your mouth..."
While answering, the girl did not forget to wave her arms and say goodbye to Zhang Jike politely.
"Goodbye, I hope that when I see you next time, you will still be a complete human being and not turn into a corpse soon~"
Watching the large group of mutated zombies disappear into the trees, Ji Donghai and Ma Long looked at each other.
Is it over?
Looking at a general-level zombie that seemed to be of a high level, just let the three of them leave?
Are all intelligent mutant zombies so easy to talk to?
Looking at the direction where Lin Tanying disappeared, Zhang Jike's brows seemed to have a touch of gloom that couldn't be resolved. He stood silently for a long time.
Knowing that Ma Long came forward to ask about the situation, he slowly turned around and walked towards the car.
Because Ji Donghai's wrist was injured, the driving task naturally fell on Ma Long.
Without starting the car immediately, the young soldier turned to look at Zhang Jike in the back seat and asked.
"Lao Zhang, what should we do next?"
Hearing the inquiry, Zhang Jike first took a deep breath, and after holding it for a while, he let out a long, tired sigh.
"Let's drive."
Ma Long looked confused: "Continue to the Siming Mountain Refuge?"
Zhang Jike nodded: "Continue to the Siming Mountain Refuge."
"Uh... Captain Zhang, didn't the female zombie just say that there are generals blocking the way ahead? If we just go through like this, wouldn't we just come out of the dragon pool and enter the tiger's den again?"
Ji Donghai wanted to scratch his scalp, but his wrist was injured, so he finally had to lean on the cushion and rub it, his miserable look a little funny.
"Then what do you say, go back?" Seeing Jidonghai's behavior, Zhang Jike's mouth twitched and he couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"Isn't it...that female zombie will definitely follow us anyway, and there are general-level zombies blocking the way ahead. If we can't get through, we will die, and if we get over, we will die..."
Jidonghai said with a big face and serious analysis.
"In my opinion, extending one's head is also a sword, and retracting one's head is also a sword. It's better to go back the way we came and learn from Sun Houhou's method of moving reinforcements..."
"I think you look like Sun Monkey..." Hearing this, Ma Long couldn't help but complain, "Returning to Yunlong Town to recruit reinforcements? Do you think that this old man, a bionic man, is so powerful that he can single-handedly fight off a group of mutated zombies? And that's still true. There are general-level zombies controlling it!”
"Why not? The old man's fighting prowess is obvious to all our brothers..." Ji Donghai had a matter-of-fact expression on his face, as if he had already imagined the scene of Hamilton killing everyone.
"You really think he is the Terminator..."
Ma Long was a little speechless. After Ji Donghai was contaminated by the mutated wild boar's genes, he always felt that the other party's IQ was insufficient.
"That's a group of mutated zombies with general-level zombies, and you just saw what's in the group of corpses! Even if the old man can fight those group of mutated zombies with ease, it doesn't mean that the survivors of the thermal power plant can. .”
"Think about it, if you were Lin Tanying, when you found out that you couldn't kill Hamilton, would you still resist attacking the survivors?"
Having said this, Ma Long started the car smoothly, "We have no strength, we are just fish on the chopping board. All we can do now is to minimize the losses. Let's listen to Lao Zhang and drive forward."
"But if we continue to drive forward, aren't we afraid that the general-level zombie named Lin Tanying will follow us? When we get to the Siming Mountain Refuge, people will die..."
Compared to the Siming Mountain shelter that he had never seen before, Jidonghai obviously trusted Hamilton's combat effectiveness more.
After all, he had experienced the latter for a month, and the former... didn't even know whether it existed.
"Have you forgotten? Lin Tanying just mentioned that there is a general-level zombie five kilometers away from here. There is a high probability that we will not reach the Siming Mountain Sanctuary smoothly..."
Zhang Jike seemed to have figured something out, leaning on the back of the chair and stretching comfortably.
"What should we do? This is neither advancing nor retreating. Could it be that the three of us are forced to stand still?!"
Ji Donghai was completely confused. He felt that he could barely keep up with Ma Long's thinking, but he could no longer keep up with Zhang Jike's!
Faced with his question, Zhang Jike did not explain anymore, but replied calmly.
"there's always a solution to any problem."
"I think the boat sank naturally when it reached the bridge..." Jidonghai muttered in a low voice. Seeing that the car had started, he said nothing more and asked for the dried meat from Ma Long, holding it in his arms and started chewing it with difficulty.
Seeing that Jidonghai's wrist was injured, he still kept his mouth working. Ma Long, who was driving, couldn't help laughing.
"Are you really still in the mood to eat dried meat at this time? Isn't your posture awkward? Doesn't the wound hurt?"
"It hurts!" Ji Donghai chewed heavily, "But if you don't eat, won't the injured place hurt? Anyway, if nothing happens, the three of us will most likely not survive today, so we might as well eat some dried meat in advance. Pad your belly so that you can be a well-fed ghost in the underworld."
Seeing the other party's plausive appearance, Ma Long stopped talking, shook his head with a wry smile, and concentrated on driving.
Just like when we came before, we still didn't encounter any wandering secondary infected bodies on the way, but the mood of the three of them was not as relaxed as before. .
Because the five kilometers mentioned by Lin Tanying are constantly shortening, it is estimated that in two minutes, they will reach the 'territory' of the next general-level zombie.
Putting the last piece of dried meat into his mouth, Ji Donghai chewed a few mouthfuls and swallowed it with a gulp.
A pair of bull's eyes widened, paying attention to everything outside the car window.
However, the expected scene of zombies blocking the road did not appear.
The car drove smoothly and successfully drove onto the branch road leading to the Siming Mountain Refuge.
Looking at the calm things outside the car window, Ma Long, who was holding the steering wheel, frowned and glanced at the rearview mirror strangely.
"Old Zhang, did that Lin Tanying lie to us? We've almost driven seven kilometers, and we haven't seen any general-level zombies coming out to block the road..."
As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of white light suddenly flashed behind a hill not far from the road!
Then, there was a deafening thunder!
"Fuck!"
The sudden noise startled Jidonghai, and without thinking much, he immediately pressed his face against the car window glass, trying to see more details.
But just when Ma Long slowed down and prepared to find out, there was no more movement from behind the hill.
It was as if everything that had just happened was just the fantasy of the three of them and did not really happen.
After being stunned for a moment, Ji Donghai turned around and asked with some uncertainty.
"That sound just now seemed to be thunder... I didn't see any dark clouds in broad daylight, so how come the landmines fell and rolled smoothly..."
Ma Long did not respond, but Zhang Jike suddenly spoke up in the back seat.
"parking!"
After slamming on the brakes, Ma Long cast a confused look behind him, "What's wrong, Lao Zhang?"
"You guys stay in the car, I'll go down and take a look."
Zhang Jike frowned, and while answering Ma Long, he opened the car door with one hand.
"this……"
Zhang Jike's sudden move made Ma Long and Jidonghai unable to react for a moment. When they came to their senses, the middle-aged soldier had already left the road and walked towards the hillside.
"What are you doing, Captain Zhang? Are you so interested in magical natural phenomena..."
Looking at the other party's leaving figure, Ji Donghai asked Ma Long the question.
Unexpectedly, after a moment of silence, Ma Long immediately opened the car door and dropped a sentence.
"You stay in the car, I'll be right back!"
After saying that, the young soldier ran towards Zhang Jike without looking back.
"Damn it, isn't it just a rolling landmine? When did you two become so interested in natural phenomena..."
Although Ji Donghai also wanted to get out of the car, he had both broken wrists and could not open the door. He had to sit in the car like a fool, staring blankly at the direction in which Zhang and Ma disappeared. .
It was nothing at first, so I just sat in the car and waited. But as I waited, Ji Donghai realized that something was wrong.
Because in his field of vision, a big tree on the side of the hill seemed to be shaking all the time, and the leaves rustled as if being blown by the breeze.
But the key was that he had the windows open and there was no wind blowing around him.
"What the hell... could it be some wild monkey swinging on the tree?"
Ji Donghai felt weird and wanted to take a closer look.
At this time, there was another thunder, and the location happened to be the big tree that was 'swaying in the wind'!
This time the strong man saw clearly that the explosion was not a rolling mine falling from the sky at all, but a flashing blue and white arc of electricity!
From bottom to top, half of the tree crown was blown apart!
Most of the lush leaves were shattered in an instant, leaving only the bare branches still burning.
"Fuck! What the hell is this..."
Jidonghai in the car was already stunned from ear to ear, exclaiming repeatedly, and his heart was full of surprise.
But it's far from over.
There was a loud bang, and Ji Donghai, who was staring out the window, felt the car tremble. He was so frightened that he thought it was the inexplicable rolling mine coming to the door, and he almost broke the glass and escaped from the car.
After looking carefully, I realized that something had fallen on the hood of the car. It was a big bloody mass, and I couldn't tell what it was for a while.
It looks like it was blown out by the explosion just now...
