Because there was no exchange for update information, Qiu Yu had to collect every update by himself.
After the third update, intelligence on Climbers, Arsonists, Defenders and Destroyers was immediately available. After that, Qiu Yu was the first person to encounter and survive, and brought back the tracker's information.
The appearance of five kinds of zombies at once is quite an exaggeration, but will it be even more exaggerated? The answer is yes. Since there will be five types of zombies, there is no guarantee that there will not be a sixth, seventh, or even more zombies in this update. However, their number is probably as rare as BOSS level, and it is difficult to encounter them even if you go out of your way to encounter them.
Akiba considers the worst possible scenarios as much as possible. But for completely blank areas, it’s not enough to just think about it. He could consider the zombies flying in the sky, the zombies hiding on the ground, the zombies drowning in the water... But if he had imagined for himself how difficult it would be before encountering it, then he might as well just don't do anything and just commit suicide.
For many things, you can only prepare yourself as much as possible, using what is controllable and known about yourself to face the uncontrollable and unknown of the enemy.
In this plan to trap zombies, Qiu Yu also plans to lure out a possible sixth type of zombie. It is definitely better to discover the enemy in a planned way than to encounter it suddenly.
Under the ear-piercing roars and the people who committed suicide by jumping off the building one after another, the pile of corpses had reached a height of more than 20 meters, but there were still no new types of zombies seen. This is not enough for Qiu Yu to completely rule out the existence of the sixth type, but it just makes him feel that he is not lucky enough, or not bad enough.
But searching for new types of zombies is a small incidental task after all, and even trapping and killing zombies is also incidental. Even if all the zombies in dozens of square kilometers are killed, it will not be of much help to the subsequent situation. The really important purpose is to allow the troops to reach the arsenal safely.
Although the height of the corpse mountain only reaches one-third of the two buildings, the effect has been significantly reduced.
Zombies don't just jump after climbing to the top of a building. As the vandals opened their way, the building had been torn apart, and countless zombies jumped out from the damaged walls and windows. Under the cushioning of the extremely thick flesh pad, a height of several meters or even more than ten meters would not be able to hurt the zombies who jumped from the building. And this rapidly increasing corpse mountain has become the third choice for zombies to climb after the two buildings. When the two phases are superimposed, the suicide efficiency of zombies is more than twice as slow as before.
If it was to kill time, Qiu Yu would naturally maximize the effect of trapping. But the time now is so precious, let alone passing it away, it is not even good to delay it. Qiu Yu used a laser rifle to shoot off the chute hanging on the tracker, and pulled the rope in his hand to lift it back.
This time, the tracker was knocked against the outer wall of the building several times, just enough to shut up the dizzy state. When it woke up and was about to continue roaring, the familiar cloth wrapped its head again.
Qiu Yu moved very quickly. The zombie swarm had just fallen into a brief period of disorder when the second booby trap began to operate again.
Neither the zombie swarm nor the trackers were smart. Turn, gather, climb stairs, commit suicide. Everything is just a repetition of what came before. The only difference was that the tall mountain of corpses was left in place, with countless injured zombies howling and struggling on the mountain of corpses, performing a hell-like scene.
Qiu Yu didn't have any perverted preferences. After taking a few glances, he focused his attention on the operating trap. But he was always cautious, so he would still scan the mountain of corpses from time to time.
After a few times, the zombies around the corpse mountain had already flocked to the new suicide point, and the zombies coming from further away also bypassed it. Therefore, the state of the mountain of corpses has become much more eye-catching.
What is so-called eye-catching is that on the sensory level, the entire mountain of corpses makes Qiu Yu feel that it should be a collection, but it has become an independent existence that has no intersection with other zombies. Visually, none of the new zombies ran up the corpse mountain... This is not surprising. There is indeed no reason for them to climb on the corpse mountain. The strange thing is that the zombies on the corpse mountain have been there since the beginning. They have been struggling and struggling until now, but no one has been able to break free from the corpse.
One or two could also be explained by the fact that they were seriously injured in the fall, but if hundreds or thousands of zombies couldn't escape, then the problem couldn't be on them.
Although strange, the corpse mountain did not give him a sense of danger. This made Qiu Yu, who was accustomed to using the spread of perception to grasp all the information in front of him, not willing to just use his eyes to see it.
Relying on the grapple gun in his hand, he flew across the buildings. It didn't take much effort for him to reach the roof of the building next to the mountain of corpses. At this height, he could barely reach the mountain of corpses with the spread of blurred perception. But at extremely low definition, there is nothing strange about the information obtained.
After some hesitation, Qiu Yu began to walk downstairs. The zombies in the building have basically been lured away. In terms of risk, it is not even as high as the building under normal circumstances. As we went down, we got closer and closer to the mountain of corpses, but the feeling of danger did not increase.
Halfway down the mountain, I could already sense the spread and scan the inside of the mountain of corpses more clearly. But the parts that appear are just piles of dead or disabled zombies. If you are an ordinary person, it is easy to overlook this point. After all, this mountain of corpses is composed of zombies that cannot move. However, Qiu Yu observed it very carefully. Not long ago, this mountain of corpses was clearly crawling with normal zombies with sound limbs.
It wasn't that they were crushed to death in this mountain of corpses, but that they simply disappeared. All zombies touched by the spread of perception, whether dead or alive, suffered injuries from falling.
When Qiu Yu descended to a height that was almost parallel to the mountain of corpses, he finally discovered the reason - there were passages inside the mountain of corpses. The walls of the passages were made of intertwined limbs of dead zombies. Each one was intact or injured. Zombies that are not serious about love are squirmed by the corpse mountain, squeezed into these passages, and then discharged to the ground through the passage exit at the bottom of the corpse mountain.
Although the source has not yet been found, Qiu Yu is almost certain that this is the sixth type of zombie released this time. We don’t know what it looks like at the beginning, but its power is to selectively fuse zombies that have lost their combat effectiveness.
If it is indeed a zombie that has lost its combat effectiveness, then even if it risks being killed by stray bullets and goes to a battlefield with humans, it can still pick up dozens or hundreds of them in addition to the complete pieces. , is already quite rare, and there is a possibility of being bombarded to pieces by heavy weapons after becoming conspicuous.
But in the zombie-hunting trap that Qiuyu made himself, he found enough dead and injured zombies, and it became so huge in an instant.
At this moment, Qiu Yu felt like he was being plotted. It's not a calculation against oneself, but a calculation against one's own actions.
I can think of using trackers to trap zombies, so how could the designers of these zombies not think of this drawback? And his method of coping is to fuse useless zombies that should have been turned into waste into new zombies.
Qiu Yu even thought a little deeper. Perhaps in order to prevent enemies of the zombie army from knowing the existence of the fusion in advance, the fusion function will only be activated if a sufficient number of zombies die at one time.
Because those who can kill a large number of zombies at once are either smart enough or powerful enough. This fusion giant is probably specially designed to trap and kill these powerful people.
Simply put, two things are certain now.
He was in danger, and... he personally released a monster that shouldn't have appeared.
This is... the zombie maker's attack on self-righteous people, and it is also a ruthless ridicule.
