Chapter 344: Great escape and bad news!
Because of the magical objects in Kaifu Temple, the survivors in the three major bases in City C finally escaped the catastrophe.
But even so, they suffered heavy losses, coupled with the warnings of Huang Chang and others, and the constant approach of zombies in City C, so these people had to abandon the camp and flee in embarrassment.
But if you want to escape from C City to Lotus City, you can imagine the dangers and difficulties.
After all, regardless of the lord-level creature that might be chasing behind him at any time, the millions of zombies in City C and the various dangers along the way are enough to pose a huge threat to these survivors.
Because of this, it is still unknown how many of these tens of thousands of survivors can finally escape from birth, reach Liancheng successfully, and meet Huang Chang and others.
The only thing to be thankful for is that the people in these three gathering places at least brought out the communication equipment. Although the signal is not so good that the communication is intermittent, it can at least let Huang Chang and the others know the situation of the survivors in these three gathering places. .
It's just... the news they got is not optimistic!
There are too many zombies in City C. Although most of the mutant zombies have been hunted by that lord-level creature, the huge sea of corpses still poses a huge threat to the survivors who fled.
More importantly, since the bosses and some powerful abilities of those gathering places are hunted first by the lord-level creatures as delicious food, the number of abilities in the fleeing team is already very small, plus when fleeing It was impossible to bring too many weapons and equipment. At the same time, the movement was extremely loud, and it was easy to attract a large number of zombies, so that these survivors were blocked by a large number of zombies while fleeing, causing heavy casualties.
On the other side, those survivors who fled from the Juzizhoutou gathering place were not much better. Just as Huang Chang was worried, these survivors who fled from the waterway were also attacked by various aquatic mutants in the Xiangjiang River. A few large ships are okay and can barely withstand a certain degree of external attacks, but some improvised small boats are unlucky, and they often roll over or sink when attacked.
Once falling into the water, these survivors have almost no resistance to the various mutant creatures in the water!
It can be said that this was an extremely tragic and cruel escape.
While keeping in touch with the fugitives, Huang Chang and others also left the Zhaoshan camp with a hundred elite soldiers and went to the junction of Liancheng and C City to meet those fugitives in C City.
In the process of moving forward, Huang Chang and others also opened up a relatively safe road as much as possible, so that after receiving the survivors, they can also bring them back to the Zhaoshan camp as soon as possible.
On the other side, Liu Xin and others in the base also photographed a group of people waiting to meet the survivors who took the waterway along the Xiangjiang River.
At the current rate, the survivors who took the waterway are estimated to arrive at the Xiangjiang River one day faster than the other two groups of survivors who took the land. This is also the advantage of the waterway. After all, there are not so many sea holes in the waterway, nor so many. Zombies block the way.
Just because of the interception of a large number of aquatic mutants on the road, the risk of taking the water route will be greater, and it can be said that there are disadvantages and advantages compared with the land.
But anyway, with the strength and experience of the survivors of the last days, as long as no major accidents occur, a large part of these survivors should still be able to successfully reach the lotus city.
It's just... the last thing in the last days is accidents!
A few hours later, Huang Chang and others successfully arrived at the junction of Liancheng and City C.
As early as two or three hours ago, the group of survivors who had taken the waterway had successfully reached Liancheng, and then under the support of Liu Xin and others, they went to the Zhaoshan camp for resettlement!
This is not surprising. After all, the waterway from City C to Lotus City is not very long, and there are no obstacles along the way. Before the end of the world, even the slower sightseeing ferry can be reached in only two hours. Now under the rush of these survivors, they can naturally arrive faster.
It's just... the loss is too great!
According to Liu Xin’s statistics and the reports of those survivors, of the 13,000 people they had evacuated from the Juzizhoutou gathering place, only 2,000 people managed to reach Zhaoshan, which is even one-sixth. The survival rate has not been reached!
And this is only a waterway of fifty or sixty kilometers!
This shows that the risk of walking on the waterway is so huge!
"Li Yu, how long will the survivors reach Liancheng?"
Thinking of the terrible casualty rate in the waterway, Huang Chang couldn't help sighing, then picked up the military communicator modified and strengthened by Li Yu, and asked Li Yu who was in the base camp.
"According to the current speed, the vanguard should be able to arrive in 4 hours."
Li Yu: "But their team stretched a long way, and the follow-up troops dragged farther away, and they were all old, weak, sick and disabled... It is estimated that it will take at least ten hours to arrive with all members."
Although people’s physique continues to increase after the end of the world, it’s not easy for anyone to walk more than 50 kilometers in the end of the world, so even though there are already five miles away from those people. About hours, even the fastest vanguard only walked about half of the distance-this is the result of them going all-out at all costs!
"I know, tell them that we will go along the highway to meet them."
Hearing what Li Yu said, Huang Chang replied and sighed slightly in his heart.
He didn't even dare to ask Li Yu about the casualties of the fugitive troops, because he knew that this would only make himself worse.
However, there is one more troublesome thing before them now-the sky is almost dark!
I checked my watch, and it was now 3:30 in the afternoon, so even the fastest vanguard might not be able to arrive here before dark.
Once night falls, the danger for these people is even greater.
Therefore, as far as they can, they can only move forward and shorten the distance between them, hoping to catch them before dark. And with their strength, even if there is any danger at night, they must be able to protect these survivors as much as possible.
But having said that, these survivors are now lucky enough to escape from City C.
But just when Huang Chang led the people along the highway for nearly two hours and was about to meet the leading troops, Li Yu's heavy voice suddenly sounded from the communicator, bringing it to Huang Chang and others. The bad news!
"Worse, Brother Huang, the escaped troops have sent an emergency call for help... The lord-level monster seems to have got rid of the entanglement and is chasing and devouring them!"
Obviously, the lord-level monster who was damaged by the bodhi tree in Kaifu Temple was not willing to let go of the survivors who had finally been brought up in captivity. He even took the initiative to leave his territory and began to follow these survivors to hunt down. Up.
"Damn it!"
Upon hearing Li Yu's words, Huang Chang's expression suddenly changed.
He originally thought that lord-level creatures would not leave his territory easily, but now it seems that he has guessed completely wrong!
But it's also right. Such powerful creatures often possess amazing intelligence. As long as there is need and benefit, how can they be restricted by the mere territorial word!
This is in trouble!
The pursuit of this lord-level creature means that if Huang Chang and others continue to respond, it is very likely that they will encounter this lord-level creature, and it will definitely be another hard fight by then!
But the problem is, he can't just let the tens of thousands of survivors come here, right?
More importantly, who knows if the lord-level creature will take advantage of the trend and continue to invade the lotus city after devouring these survivors!
"It's not that the lord-level creature has never been killed. I'm afraid of a wool!"
Thinking of this, Huang Chang's eyes narrowed, he made a decision, and shouted in a deep voice: "Ten combat teams continue to move forward to meet the survivors, and the others will come with me to find a way to stop that lord-level creature!"
After speaking, Huang Chang took the lead and stood up, no longer caring about the combat squads, with the fallen and others who followed closely, blasting away in the direction of City C at the fastest speed!
