Zhao Xuan led his team to fight and retreat. They were still dozens of meters away from the main road, and everyone could smell the strong smell of blood that made people sick.
"Oh my god, how many people have died?" Zhang Xiaocai showed strong intolerance on his face.
Zhao Xuan also frowned slightly sadly.
This situation is now a relatively good one. The total number of deaths this time should not exceed 100,000.
At this time, attracted by the strong smell of blood on the street in front, the group of corpses faced by Zhao Xuan's team suddenly went crazy, and their combat effectiveness increased by more than 30%.
Lu Qiang made a mistake and was scratched by two zombies approaching him.
Fortunately, Lu Qiang was not injured because of the metal energy body protection and the fact that Lu Qiang was also wearing a set of inner armor sewn from the second-level python skin given by Zhao Xuangang.
"Wow! Boss, how come these little bastards suddenly feel like they have taken aphrodisiacs? I just keep retreating, and I can't stop it." Lu Qiang shouted.
Zhao Xuan knew as soon as he heard this that Lu Qiang's physical strength had been exhausted to the point of approaching the warning line.
"Everyone speeds up the retreat. Qiangzi immediately breaks away from the group of corpses." Zhao Xuan immediately ordered.
First, the combat team members ran back to the main street quickly, followed by Zhao Xuan, Qin Feng and others. Then Lu Qiang also worked up his strength, rounded the stick and rushed out.
Everyone quickly came to the main road and joined other forces that had just retreated here.
Here, Zhao Xuan saw Yan Chengfeng.
He found that Yan Chengfeng's face had become extremely gloomy, and he was not as proud and confident as before.
Zhao Xuan smiled heartily.
He knew that Yan Chengfeng's strength must have suffered a relatively large loss, otherwise there would not have been a street corner on his side that was lost, resulting in a large number of casualties among the refugees.
"Boss, it's tragic, it's too tragic. So many survivors are like powerless lambs, swallowed up by the corpses. The scene of so many people struggling and screaming makes people have nightmares just thinking about it." Cheng Yugang's expression He said to Zhao Xuan in a white voice.
Cheng Yugang was already considered a hard-hearted person, but he actually had this expression on his face, which showed how tragic the scene they had just experienced was.
"Yes. So much blood actually flowed into a river on the ground." Yang Xiaozhu said with a little trembling.
"This is the end of the world, this is fate. Don't mind it too much, and adjust your mentality quickly. And the death of those people is not without effect. Look..." Zhao Xuan pointed forward calmly and said.
Everyone took a closer look, and sure enough they saw large groups of zombies following Zhao Xuan's team out of the horizontal street. After arriving on the main road, only a very small number continued to run towards them, while the vast majority of the zombies continued to run towards them. He turned around and went to the back of the main road where the smell of blood was the strongest.
Behind the main road, you can vaguely see many zombies fighting for the broken limbs. There were also many zombies lying on the ground sucking blood.
"Indeed, this may be the last meaning of those sacrifices." Everyone nodded in agreement.
"City Lord, I'm sorry. Due to the chaotic situation, 22 of the 300 brothers we brought over were still dead even though they were all wearing fish skin armor." Bao Annan lowered his head and said in a low voice.
Cheng Yugang and other squadron leaders who led the team to support the right wing suddenly looked embarrassed.
You know, when they fought with Zhao Xuan before, they basically suffered zero casualties. Even if he led a team to clean the corridors alone several times, the casualties among the team members were just an exception.
The scene they faced this time was a bit too big. Although it was excusable that there were more casualties, it still made them feel very humiliated.
Zhao Xuan smiled faintly.
Where can you fight zombies without casualties? Not everyone has his command experience and combat capabilities.
Besides, the arrogant Yan Chengfeng suffered a lot of casualties in his team.
Without asking Yan Chengfeng personally, Zhao Xuan could guess that at least 500 of Yan Chengfeng's two thousand men died.
"There will be casualties in the battle. This is unavoidable. You just need to pay attention to summing up experience and lessons. However, the pension for the brothers who died in the battle cannot be careless. The rewards for the brothers who survived will also be doubled." Zhao Xuan said calmly.
Everyone in the team looked a little more relaxed.
"Is Qiangzi feeling better? Can you stop the zombies coming up?" Zhao Xuan looked at Lu Qiang again.
"No problem, boss. Although I have only recovered a little bit, the zombies that came up this time are not even one-tenth of the ones before. It's just a piece of cake." Lu Qiang said with confidence.
"Then go up and fight while retreating." Zhao Xuan nodded and said.
Lu Qiang rushed forward immediately.
...
It was 11 o'clock in the morning, and the sound of artillery shelling from nine places in Yunhai City began to fade away.
Only then did the fleeing crowds on the streets begin to arrive at the Sixth Ring Road in large numbers.
The number of refugees gathered by Wang Qichao was no less than 3,000.
Another Yunling City mercenary team waiting with him at this street intersection also gathered a similar number of people.
After the crowd they gathered, and after their patient explanations, most of the refugees took the signs representing their team and set off on the road to Yunling City.
Only a very small number of refugees did not believe in evil and insisted on going to the Feiyun Base of the 178th Division.
For this group of people, Wang Qichao and others completely let it go.
"It is estimated that in another half an hour, no one will run out from this road. We can withdraw by then." Wang Qichao said to Huo Zhenguo, the leader of the other team, 'Qiaoshou Pavilion'.
"Absolutely. I estimate that I should be able to receive 5,000 people. This is 10,000 kilograms of grain, which can be exchanged for 200 ordinary crystal cores. It is not far from the 400 grains that can be exchanged for supernatural crystal cores. Lao Wang, You don't know, I have always dreamed of getting a fire-type superpower crystal core. After all, my superpower qualification is "excellent" in the fire-type. The team members all agreed to raise a fire-type crystal core for me. When I become a fire-type superpower, Being a person with super powers can lead them to make money quickly, and make even more, allowing a second or third person with super powers to appear in the team." Huo Zhenguo said with great expectation.
While they were still on the mountain, Zhao Xuan asked the City Lord's Mansion to test all of them's supernatural abilities so that they could all know what they were capable of.
"Really? Then you are really lucky. Unlike me, well, it's hard to say." Wang Qichao sighed and said.
Wang Qichao's power aptitude test score was average in the earth system, and there was a certain degree of uncertainty in awakening his power. Under such circumstances, it would be extremely difficult to get all his team members to agree to exchange for earth crystal cores for him.
After all, no one is willing to waste their own blood and sweat on others. Not even if Wang Qichao is their leader.
Huo Zhenguo glanced at Wang Qichao sympathetically.
He knew Wang Qichao's situation.
If Wang Qichao wants to obtain the earth crystal core, he basically has to rely on his own continuous accumulation. In the end, he may have to take out a loan, and then he can have a chance to gamble his luck.
