No wonder those people were all injured. Maybe they had experienced such a zombie hunt before. Otherwise, why would such an important person only have twenty or thirty people to protect him?
"If this is not an accident, then why on earth are the zombies chasing them?"
Lin Qingqing could never figure this out. She had previously guessed that there might be something special about these people that would attract the attention of zombies, but seeing how concerned and protective they were about that "important person", she thought Somewhat uncertain.
"Perhaps there is really something special about Mr. Tang..."
The figure she saw in the wild flashed before her eyes, and she became a little uncertain again.
"If this person is really so important, how come he can still run around?"
"I can't figure it out..."
Lin Qingqing rubbed her eyebrows, feeling indescribably irritated.
She looked up at the sky, but there was still no light in the sky.
…
Soon in the second half of the night, it was time to change defenses. At this time, strong winds blew, with a trace of imperceptible water vapor in them.
"Dark clouds are approaching, it looks like there will be heavy rain later in the night!"
Lin Qingqing jumped out of the car, woke Lei Min and Qu Xingchi and asked them to stay in the car overnight.
The two of them yawned and got into the off-road vehicle, while Lin Qingqing and Yin Yaxiu returned to the RV to rest.
Sure enough, not long after, the sound of pattering raindrops could be heard outside.
As the rain became heavier and heavier, people in the central camp gradually became unable to stay any longer. The fires had been extinguished by the rain, and people could only fumble in the darkness to close their tents.
"Boom, boom!"
Thunder began to thunder on the horizon, and it was noisy outside at the moment. The sound of rain was mixed with the voices of people shouting, and it was drowned out by the thunder, so nothing could be heard clearly.
Lin Qingqing and Yin Yaxiu had been awakened long ago and could not sleep, so they simply stayed awake and waited for the rain to stop.
"Rumble--"
Another huge thunder sounded, followed by bright lightning that illuminated the entire camp.
"Captain, there seems to be something going on outside!"
At this time, Lei Min's exclamation suddenly came from the communication headset in the car.
"what's the situation?"
"It looks like there are zombies!"
Her tone was a little hesitant. After all, she just took a look at it through the light of lightning. It was possible that she was just a camping team member who had not yet finished evacuating.
Lin Qingqing frowned and thought for a second before deciding to wake up Wen Ling.
"Little bell, wake up, there's something going on outside!"
The little girl was shaken awake and rubbed her eyes to drive away the sleepiness. Then she activated her powers and checked the situation in the darkness.
"Captain, there are zombies in the camp, and there are more than one!"
In just a moment, Wen Ling's voice suddenly sounded.
It was dark outside at the moment, but if you listened carefully, you could indeed hear screams coming from the heavy rain.
"Captain, what should we do now?" Qu Xingchi said anxiously in another car. He had already vaguely seen the zombies.
It was pitch black outside, and it was raining heavily. Darkness and the unknown can amplify people's fear. Everyone's heart twitched when they heard there were zombies.
"Little bell!" Lin Qingqing turned to look at Wen Ling.
Wen Ling knew what she meant without saying it explicitly. After a moment, a series of information came out of her mouth.
"The situation outside is pretty good. There are not many zombies coming this time. There are only a dozen or so, including three in the third level. There are already people fighting with them in the second level!"
"There are casualties!"
"About...seven or eight people died," Wen Ling said.
Being attacked by zombies during a night out was not unheard of before, but it was only a few lone zombies that wandered around the camp unintentionally. In most cases, they would be discovered early by patrols.
However, the situation tonight is very strange, except for the influence of heavy rain
, the appearance of so many high-level zombies in groups does not look like an accident.
Could it be that they chased him all the way from Jincheng?
Lin Qingqing lowered her head and thought, but why? And it was so far away and it was raining heavily. How did the zombies chase them so far?
"How are you now?" After a moment, Lei Min asked again through the communicator.
"The battle is almost over, there should be no problem," Wen Ling said after sweeping the area with her superpower.
Although their car was parked at the very edge of the camp, luckily, the zombies came from the other direction.
The number of zombies that attacked this time was not large. With so many captains around, Lin Qingqing did not get out of the car.
"Those who died should be those who didn't have time to pack up their tents."
"Well, the captain is right," Wen Ling nodded.
The zombie attack was too sudden, and the timing happened to be when there was heavy rain and the camp was in chaos. Maybe the patrol members also hid in the car at that time, so they allowed their sneak attack to succeed.
But, is it really such a coincidence? The key is how these high-level zombies were able to find them. The investigators had obviously cleaned up the surrounding area, and even Wen Ling had not found any trace of high-level zombies before.
…
The rain outside has gradually lightened up, and everyone has returned to the car. The team leader sent a message saying that they will set off at dawn.
At this time, everyone's heart was heavy, especially those teams that had lost many players, and the atmosphere was even more depressed.
Almost everyone is thinking: "Is it because I didn't read the almanac when I went out?"
Or "This mission must be too unlucky. Ever since we entered Jincheng, there have been no zombies behind us. Even on a rainy night, we can't live in peace."
In fact, it is not that no one has doubted this VIP team, but there is no evidence, and there is nothing wrong at all from the faces of Liao Shijie and his party.
These people seemed to be used to this kind of thing and were not surprised at all.
It was this calm attitude that made Lin Qingqing even more suspicious that the zombies were related to this group of people.
When the sky got slightly brighter, the team couldn't wait to get ready and set off.
Because they were chased by zombies last night and deviated from their direction, they had to turn around and bypass Jincheng, and then return to Rongcheng base through Shoushan County, which had few zombies nearby.
Perhaps because of the shadow left by the attack on the camp last night, the person in charge of the convoy chose to move forward at full speed this time without making any stops on the road, intending to rush back to the Rongcheng base before dark.
No one has any objection to this decision.
The fleet remained in the same order as before. Although the Qingmang team did not reduce their numbers, they were still the team with the smallest number of all teams, so in terms of combat power, they were eventually ranked second to last.
At the end of the convoy, the team in charge of the rear was changed. It seemed that in the previous chase in Jincheng, many people in the original second team died.
