After a long night, God finally lived up to the expectations of the survivors the next day. The weather change that everyone was worried about did not appear, and the long-lost sunshine still hung high in the sky.
"After dinner, we will start the planned actions. In terms of manpower, we will follow what we discussed last night!" Taking advantage of breakfast, Hu Xiaodong gave everyone the order.
According to the results of their discussion last night, Hu Xiaodong will lead the team today, and Duan Chengwu, Huo Yuankai, and Tang Xiaoquan will be responsible for arranging the sound sources.
Huabiao and Wang Qiang stayed at the base camp to guard the vehicles.
Everyone who had no objections settled down to have breakfast and then prepared their own preparations.
They are under great pressure in this operation, because the success or failure will be directly related to whether Lao Xu and Lei Tong can be saved.
"Hua Zi, I leave the family to you. If there is any accident, you can make your own decision. Safety first."
"I understand, don't worry, I know how to do it."
With a simple instruction, Hu Xiaodong led a group of brothers out of the house and downstairs.
Going down to the bottom of the building, Hu Xiaodong first moved the bread blocking the door a little distance forward.
After all the brothers in the building had moved, they retreated and blocked it again.
After getting these done, everyone moved on.
At the same time, Xu Renjie, who received the news, had already set his sights on the window, and then looked through the gap at the target location provided by the outgoing team.
After a day of washing, most of the snow on the ground has dissolved, which makes it easier for everyone to show up.
Dissolved snow water was constantly flowing along the walls and windows, which to a certain extent covered up the sound caused by the feet of several people stepping on the snow.
In addition to the commotion caused by Lao Xu and Lei Zi during the chase with the earring man and the zombies earlier, there were basically no zombies in the streets at this time.
However, although they had carefully observed the street conditions on the roof of the building, the survivor team still maintained sufficient vigilance during the actual walk.
Because no one can predict whether there is such a fatal murderous intention hidden in those corners.
Use corners, trash cans, billboards and other outdoor objects to advance step by step.
Hu Xiaodong and his party were traveling on the road and encountered zombies wandering alone. Hu Xiaodong used a compound bow to hunt them down from a distance.
In this way, a group of people arrived at the downstairs of "Kanghui Building" quite smoothly.
Wait until the door. The four-person team immediately lined up on both sides, each clinging to the door frame and wall, forming a back-to-back formation.
The places that can be explored from a high position are only outdoors, so the situation inside the building is unknown. The survivor team did not dare to advance.
After looking at the players on both sides, Hu Xiaodong signaled everyone to get ready for battle.
After the reminder, he tightened the compound bow in his hand and looked inside.
Sure enough, the first thing the probe saw was a zombie.
And the beast had his back to the door leisurely. Wandering around inside without any defense.
After visually measuring the distance between the two, Hu Xiaodong gave up the idea of shooting with a bow.
Because judging from the results of his investigation, he only found a zombie.
In addition, the zombies have their backs to you, so there is really no need to resort to such troublesome methods as sniping.
"Go!" With a low voice, Hu Xiaodong drew the machete from his back with his backhand, and then rushed into the house first.
With his waist bent and the knife in hand, Hu Xiaodong moved slightly and soon found himself behind the zombie.
But as for the zombies, the enemy's knife is almost up to their necks. He was still shaking his head unconsciously.
Without thinking, Hu Xiaodong aimed the steel knife at the beast's head, and then slashed down angrily.
"Poof!" Blood splashed out. The moment the zombie fell limp, Hu Xiaodong stepped forward, intercepted the beast's body at the waist, and then leaned over and gently placed it on the ground.
At the same time, the team members behind him also followed closely.
"Let's go up through the safe passage!"
This is the only place where you can go upstairs now. After briefly looking at the guide map at the front desk of the lobby, everyone locked the route.
Go straight all the way. Then turn right and the green word "EXIT" comes into view.
Pushing open this door means going all the way up, and it will be very troublesome to escape if you encounter zombies inside.
No normal person would do such a stupid thing, but the members of the survivor team pushed the door open without thinking.
They have experienced similar scenes more than once. So the fear in my heart has long been overcome.
What's more, this operation involves the death of their own brothers. They must take the risk no matter how dangerous it is.
The moment the door opened, a corpse's face appeared.
The zombie obviously did not expect that the closed door would be opened from the outside, but when it saw the figure who appeared after opening the door, the bloodthirsty gene stimulated by the virus immediately prompted it to make an instinctive offensive reaction.
Raise your hands and open your mouth. The sharp teeth stained with wax and dirt dripped with greedy liquid.
"Go to hell!" Hu Xiaodong raised his knife and dropped it. He was prepared to strike but not prepared. No matter how fast the zombie reacted, it would be in vain.
Duan Chengwu was worthy of being a soldier. At the same time as Hu Xiaodong raised his sword, he rushed up from behind. The knife was limp among the zombies, and he fell to the ground at the critical point. He reached out and took it in his arms.
After dragging the body to a neutral position, Duan Chengwu put the body down.
They leaned forward and looked up, but unfortunately due to the structure of the building, they couldn't see the zombies.
Waving his hands, Hu Xiaodong motioned for everyone to continue upward.
In order to prevent zombies from entering the Jingdong building, the survivor team would use prepared hemp to tie up the entrance door of the passage on each floor.
In this way, even if something unexpected happens later, they will not only be blocked by the direction of the zombies downstairs.
At the same time, it also saves them the trouble of clearing out zombies on every floor in detail.
Just like this, all the way to the 5th floor, the survivor team overcame all obstacles and slaughtered at least 6 beasts blocking the road.
When they reached the 6th floor, the survivor team that had been moving forward stopped.
According to the plan, starting from the 6th floor, audio equipment will be placed layer by layer.
The reason for doing this is to disperse the number of zombies and prevent the effect from being halved due to the sudden influx of too many zombies.
Secondly, it is to prevent zombies from destroying the equipment. After all, once the sound is heard, zombies will inevitably follow the sound to find the source.
Once the source of the sound is found, it will inevitably be destroyed, which is obviously not conducive to rescue operations.
So instead of trying to save the trouble of putting equipment in one place, it's better to take the risk of spreading it out.
Although this is a little troublesome, the entire action is very necessary.
"Huh!" He began to adjust his breath almost at the same time. Everyone knew what it meant when the door of the safe passage opened.
The survivors who had just walked from the first floor knew that there were zombies in the building, which was an indisputable fact.
And from common sense analysis, it was quite easy for Lao Xu and Lei Tong to attract the zombies downstairs when they fled, but it may not be that simple when you get upstairs.
Therefore, it is basically foreseeable that the number of zombies in the building is definitely not comparable to that downstairs.
The real battle for the survivor team has just begun.
Can they successfully set up the equipment and complete the intended tasks? (To be continued.)
