Lei Min used a thunder cannon to blast the weird zombie into pieces, and the scene happened to be seen by a man wearing metal armor.
He looked down the mountain with a face full of horror, and the hand holding the telescope couldn't stop shaking.
"I-didn't I say that I would only let you hold her for a few days? What's going on?"
"Huh? This, maybe it was an accident..."
"Accident? An accident can make a person's head grow into a zombie's body? Tell me clearly, what the hell is going on!??"
When the man heard this, he immediately became furious. He turned around fiercely and grabbed the collar of another short man behind him. At the same time, sharp metal thorns shot out from the surface of his body. The key to short men.
"Don't get excited." Faced with the other party's threat, the short man was not afraid at all. He slowly raised his hands to both sides of his head, with a smile on his lips, and explained slowly: "The corpse group did drag her for seven days. , it’s a pity that you came too late.”
"Then you can't hold her off for a few more days? Isn't this difficult for you?" As he spoke, the metal thorns on the man's body came closer, but the short man was still not afraid of him, and instead said in a sarcastic tone : "Does it make any difference? Who knows when you want to show up?"
Hearing this, the man suffocated, and the other party's light words exposed his most secret thoughts. Indeed, he had already arrived on the fifth day when Yuan Lei was trapped, but he had been hiding in the dark and never appeared. .
He didn't know what he was hesitating about at the time. His original purpose was obviously just to get her injured so that he could replace her as the captain of the Xuanyuan team.
It turned out that this man was Zhang Jianfeng, the deputy captain of the Xuanyuan team who had disappeared for more than half a month. On the third day after returning to the base, he went to the street to look for Yuan Lei and left alone. Qi Fengnian and the others always thought that Zhang Jianfeng was still there after looking for him for so long. Yuan Lei was not found, but who knew he had been in this forest a long time ago.
At this time, Zhang Jianfeng's face was extremely ugly. Although he was a little embarrassed to be exposed in public, he did not think that he had done anything wrong. He and Yuan Lei are both mid-level fifth-level superpowers, and their strength has always been about the same. Although they are lovers, why can she be promoted to the position of captain by so many people? And what if he just serves as the vice-captain?
From the beginning of the two people's doomsday to today, Zhang Jianfeng always felt that he was the one who paid the most. At the beginning, Yuan Lei did not dare to kill even the first-level zombies, so he rushed in front to protect her from the wind and rain every time.
But later, as she gradually became stronger, her status became worse and worse day by day. Almost everyone liked to be around her, respected her, and worshiped her. She is Captain Yuan of Xuanyuan Team, and even the name of the team implies her surname! But what about yourself? There is only one deputy named Zhang, who is not mentioned, and when others mention it, they have to point out their relationship.
As a mid-level fifth-level metal power user, he only has the identity of Captain Yuan's boyfriend to the outside world. How can Zhang Jianfeng, who has always been strong, be willing to accept this? What about his past contributions to the team? Were they all eaten by dogs?
Once he held his breath for too long, he turned from indignation to resentment. However, at this moment, a coincidence made him meet the man in front of him.
This man's surname is Wang. He said that he is a professor at a certain practice base, specializing in the study of zombies and supernatural powers, and is currently looking for volunteers to help him conduct experiments. According to him, he can control the zombies to a certain extent, and he can attack when he wants them to attack, and retreat when he wants them to retreat.
Originally, he was not very fond of this professor, but after hearing this, Zhang Jianfeng suddenly came up with a bold plan in his mind. He asked Professor Wang to find an opportunity to help him recruit Yuan Yuan on the grounds of providing him with superpowers as volunteers. If Lei is trapped for a period of time, it is best to let her suffer some irreparable damage, so that he can take the opportunity to capture the entire Xuanyuan team in his hands.
The two hit it off, and soon they found a suitable opportunity. In order to prevent the base from noticing the zombies' movements, he secretly destroyed the newly installed detector.
After he escorted the team members back to the base, he immediately made an excuse to say that he did not believe Yuan Lei was dead and left the base alone to find someone. Originally, this plan was perfect, as long as I found someone to support me,
Yuan Lei, who was seriously injured, was able to successfully take over the Xuanyuan team.
But at the last moment, Zhang Jianfeng hesitated. A terrible thought suddenly appeared in his mind: Instead of trying so hard to get Yuan Lei injured, it would be better to just let her die. As long as he said that he had not found it, the whole Xuanyuan The team now completely belongs to him.
With this thought, Zhang Jianfeng completely gave up looking for Yuan Lei. He just took the forest around and could only wait for a suitable time to go back.
But what he never expected was that Qi Fengnian and others actually found the Qingmang team. And because of the Qingmang Team, he saw Yuan Lei like this for the first time.
Zhang Jianfeng looked at Professor Wang with red eyes. Although this man was just an ordinary person, he always looked fearless. Seeing the undisguised contempt and ridicule in his eyes, Zhang Jianfeng was instantly angry.
"Bah! You are just a mortal, and you still dare to look at me like this!" As he spoke, five spikes appeared on Zhang Jianfeng's fingertips.
Seeing that these five spikes were about to pierce the opponent's neck, his body suddenly stopped.
"You, what did you do?" Big beads of sweat rolled down Zhang Jianfeng's forehead one by one, but when he saw the reflection in the other person's eyes, his expression gradually changed from anger to horror. .
"Bring him back to the laboratory. Such a good volunteer cannot be wasted."
Professor Wang took off Zhang Jianfeng's hand, then straightened his tie and said quietly.
"yes……"
A hoarse and stiff voice came from behind, making Zhang Jianfeng terrified.
At the bottom of the mountain, after killing the zombie, Lei Min was directing a few people to put out the fire, when suddenly there was the sound of a sniper gun behind him.
"what's the situation?"
Qu Xingchi was startled, and then quickly looked around.
"Someone is watching us over there," Wen Ling walked out from behind the car. She raised her head and "looked" toward the top of the mountain on the other side.
"Who is that?" Lei Min picked up the telescope with a serious look and pointed it in the direction Wen Ling pointed, but there was nothing there.
"I don't know," Wen Ling shook her head, her expression seemed hesitant.
"It seems like three people, and it seems like two people..."
"What do you mean?" Lei Min looked at her confused.
"I'm not sure if any of those three people are human."
This was a bit awkward to say, but both Lei Min and Qu Xingchi understood it. Wen Ling could only identify the other person's identity through behavior and movements, and the only possibility for her to say this was that she encountered a creature that behaved very similar to humans. .
——Did the captain guess correctly before that zombies like humans have really appeared?
The two of them showed surprised expressions at the same time. They thought they were just doing Xuanyuan Team a favor out of kindness, but who knew there were so many secrets hidden behind it.
Back at the base, Lei Min immediately reported the discovery to the Guild of Superpowers.
Two hours later, all major bases received the news almost at the same time.
At the Capital Base Operations Command, there is a piece of white paper stuck in the center of a blackboard, with more than a dozen messages written on it from top to bottom.
"On June 21, 2021, in Jiang Lincheng, the Chenxi team discovered a seventh-level spiritual zombie for the first time."
"On July 9, 2021, Level 6 dual-type zombies and a zombie nursery were discovered at Anseong Base."
"On July 13, 2021, Level 5 dual-type zombies were discovered at Longquan Base."
…
"On July 21, 2021, two level five dual-type zombies were discovered in Zhongshan Base."
"2021.@
Not done yet.
The atmosphere at this time was heavy and depressing. Level seven zombies, dual-type zombies, toddler zombies, and stitched zombies were completely different from the previous zombies that had evolved rapidly, as if they had appeared suddenly.
But behind these things there are human traces everywhere, as if a pair of invisible hands are silently controlling everything.
Are they humans or higher-level zombies? No one has definite evidence about this, but it is undeniable that after nearly a year of dormancy, the zombies must make big moves.
However, just six days after Lei Min reported the information, Haixia Base far to the southeast encountered the largest zombie siege since the end of the world.
Countless high-level zombies emerged from the surrounding cities, leading the zombie hordes to surround the Haixia base from all directions.
Haixia Base was originally located in the most prosperous southeastern coastal area of China, surrounded by large and medium-sized cities with dense populations. Originally this should be a very dangerous place, but the armed forces of Haixia Base are very strong. Because of this, the number of people protected by Haixia Base is the largest among the nine bases except the capital base.
However, even such a powerful base could not withstand the siege of this zombie wave in the end.
The most important reason is that this zombie wave is led by a seventh-level zombie.
In addition, a large number of new zombies have appeared in the zombie horde. Without exception, these new zombies are huge, three-headed and six-armed stitched zombies, and they are basically both civil and civil.
This kind of zombies looks clumsy, but they are huge and extremely difficult to kill. In siege operations, they are simply a siege weapon. Just like siege engines, they can throw stones to demolish walls without any disadvantage.
