But it was obvious that the beasts were quite cooperative. (?[〔

Zombies' blind obedience to sound sources has become their instinct.

Just like people are sensitive to the movement around them when hunting, zombies will first react when hearing movement to see if there is anything to eat.

Looking through the telescope, Lao Xu could clearly see the commotion of zombies gathering in the market town after the sound.

This time, as expected, the beast became very interested in the little apple in the grass.

In just ten seconds, the "Runner" took the lead in taking action.

These energetic beasts obviously thought there was a delicious meal at the source of the sound.

The "runners" are moving, and those lurking "climbers" and "jumpers" are naturally not far behind.

The activity of snatching food is an unchanging conclusion in the eyes of any predator.

How about saying that the early bird catches the worm?

The corpses all ran towards the source of the sound, and for a while the quiet market town was in chaos.

That scene was so chaotic, it was like a riot scene.

Fanatics could be seen everywhere on and below the house. Old Xu watched everything happening in the distance coldly.

The movement of zombies did not make Old Xu feel relieved.

Because the sound source attracts zombies to move, this is only the first step of the entire zombie-inducing operation.

You know, among the zombie army, the "runners", "jumpers" and "climbers" are certainly scary, but the most troublesome ones are the "walkers" who exist like cannon fodder.

These beasts may not be able to compare with the other three evolutionary aliens in terms of attack, speed, strength, and explosion.

But it is undeniable that in this world, a good man cannot stand against the crowd, nor can two fists defeat four hands.

"Walkers" will always be the main combat force of the zombie army with their huge base.

Therefore, if these "walkers" do not leave, all the actions of the survivor team will be in vain.

These "walkers" are not as active as other evolutionary aliens, and their movements are undoubtedly very slow.

This is exactly what Lao Xu is most worried about.

He knew that there would be no problem if zombies were attracted to the sound source.

However, the inconsistent pace of several zombies will cause a problem, that is, "runners", "leapers", and "climbers" are the three beasts, and they will definitely arrive at the sound source earlier than "walkers".

It is absolutely impossible for the beasts who arrived earlier to wait for the "walkers" to come over and then act together after they are done.

They will definitely conduct a search and exploration of the target sound source first.

This may cause damage to the audio source equipment.

This is inevitable. Zombies, these mindless beasts, cannot tell what a speaker is.

But they know what prey is and what food and drink are.

And dead objects like trumpets obviously cannot arouse their bloodshed.

But zombies are brainless, they are the kind of masters who will never give up until they achieve their goals.

So as long as they can't find prey, they will definitely sweep around the sound source, which will inevitably cause damage to the sound source equipment.

After all, the audio source device is just a speaker, and it does not have strong protection. If it is bumped by zombies, it will misfire if it is not fully protected.

This kind of thing has not happened before. The last time they rescued Xu Renjie, Lei Tong, and Li Zhong, they teamed up and prepared twelve high-power speakers.

But the final result was almost total destruction.

Although the difficulty of this mission is not as high as the last time, even if there is a problem with the speaker, it will not cause life-threatening danger to the outgoing team.

But as far as the mission itself is concerned, once the horn breaks, all the walkers in the market town will certainly not be attracted to the deserted grassland.

In this way, the outbound team operation is doomed to fail.

This is not the result that Lao Xu wants to see, nor is it the result that the members of the outgoing team want to encounter.

After all, it is not easy to come here. The consumption of various resources and the lack of security of the station are the price paid by the survivor team.

In addition, the key point is that without this batch of material supplies, all construction work at home will stop.

This is the most troublesome thing, especially now that there is an organization with unknown purpose, the Doomsday Salvation and Revival Society, standing in front of the survivor team.

Just because it is not clear whether the other party is an enemy or a friend, the urgency and importance of building villages are highlighted even more.

To accomplish this, the supplies in the distant market town are exactly what the survivor team needs most at the moment.

So many things seem to be quite simple and clear, but if you think about it carefully, they are actually interconnected. If one thing is not done well, many things in the future will be affected.

In terms of life, this is the difference between smart people and stupid people, and also the difference between rich people and poor people.

People who are good at thinking can often connect many problems together for planning.

Lazy people usually ring the clock as a monk every day.

However, God seems to be on the side of the survivor team today. As time goes by, the sound source equipment has never had any problems.

Thanks to the cooperation of the animals who arrived early, the zombies did not destroy the audio equipment placed in the grass.

This gave the market town "walkers" a clear guide.

While Lao Xu was monitoring the movements of zombies on the roof of the car, Lao Zhao and others below also looked solemn.

Although he also knew that zombies in the distance would not pose any threat to his side.

But concerns about the mission itself still kept everyone on tenterhooks.

I don't know how long it took, but even though it was only a hundred meters away, it was really a time-consuming job to have an entire team, especially a team of "walkers" that didn't move very quickly.

You said that if it was an ordinary team, you could also use a loudspeaker or something like that and shout twice at the top of your lungs.

But in the face of this group of brainless and bloodthirsty beasts, if you dare to yell at them at the top of your lungs, they will tear you apart in minutes.

Waiting is something you have no choice but to do. Fortunately, it is winter now and there is no need to avoid the scorching sun.

Otherwise, just waiting would be enough for the members of the action team to drink a bottle.

Time passed minute by minute in this boring waiting. No one complained, no one was missing, and all the action team members were patiently waiting for Lao Xu's order.

Even though Wei Dazhuang, who was quite straightforward and anxious, showed rare patience at this time.

Finally, twenty minutes after the sound source started to attract corpses, Lao Xu, who was like a wooden stake nailed to the roof, finally put down the telescope in his hand.

Zhao Yunhai had been keeping a close eye on Lao Xu's movements on the roof of the car. When he saw Lao Xu put down his binoculars, he immediately asked: "Old Xu! How is the situation? Are all the beasts gone?"

This is the key to whether the team below continues to move forward or returns to the same place.

For a moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Lao Xu.

Without saying a word, Lao Xu jumped directly from the roof of the car to the ground. After he stood firm, he said one word at a time: "That's almost it. We can start."

As Lao Xu's words of affirmation came out, the sound of exhalation suddenly occurred to the audience.

It can be seen that until this moment, all the team members were relieved and relieved. (To be continued.) 8
