Chapter 434 Heading to the Crypt

The leaders of several major forces are not fools. Of course they know that what they encounter this time is not a brainless zombie.

However, although they knew this situation, they were at a loss what to do.

After all, just dealing with the attacks of the zombie hordes every day has already consumed a lot of their troops.

Then separate some elites to investigate the nest of the corpses, not to mention how dangerous it is.

Just by dividing the troops at this time, it would be difficult to deal with the base camp if it was attacked.

Therefore, even if Xing Tian and Wei Dinghai knew that this was not a long-term solution, they did not dare to send troops to investigate rashly.

But Xiao Hong dared to practice.

She has always been fiery and daring to fight.

When she was still working at the Tianhai City Police Department, she relied on this and her father as a high-level leader to get promoted.

"We cannot sit still and wait for death. If this continues, in less than a month, we will have to abandon the refinery and go underground to avoid the tide of corpses."

Xiao Honglian was sitting on a steel pipe, covered in blood.

They had just repelled a wave of zombie attacks. Relying on her powerful Purgatory Furnace ability and Yangsheng Base's huge energy bank, they were able to eliminate the zombies faster than other forces.

But this kind of continuous harassment and the increasingly smart zombies made her feel deeply uneasy just like Zhang Yi.

She is also afraid that the zombies will become smarter and smarter, until one day they will be unable to deal with it.

Even at that time, hiding underground could not avoid the fate of being killed by the zombies.

Zhuge Qingting walked over. His white combat uniform was also dripping with blood.

However, he still stood upright and saluted Xiao Honglian with a standard military salute.

"Chief, all the zombies have been cleaned up. If these things are burned, they will die completely."

"However, we also lost 67 warriors and slaves."

Xiao Honglian raised his head and glanced at him, his fiery red eyes exuding a sharp light, which was the lingering aftertaste of her ability.

"We have to change our style of play! We can't be passive defensive all the time."

Zhuge Qingting's pupils shrank, "You mean... we have to take the initiative to go to the zombie's lair?"

Xiao Honglian nodded: "The zombies' actions are obviously controlled by someone. Maybe it's a strange person, or some other intelligent creature."

"In short, we must obtain enough intelligence to know how to completely resolve this crisis."

Zhuge Qingting frowned, "But it's too dangerous to do this! We don't know how big the corpse group is."

"If you go to investigate rashly, your entire army may be wiped out!"

"The situation of other companies is not optimistic either. We might as well wait and see for a while. Maybe they can find a way to solve this problem."

Xiao Honglian sneered.

"Look at the scale of this zombie wave! I don't think they will take it easy, especially the Snow Worship Cult. Those idiots have gathered tens of thousands of people, and they are simply collecting lunch for the zombies!"

"We can't rely on anyone. They want us to die! If we want to rely on them, we have to rely on ourselves."

Zhuge Qingting could not refute Xiao Honglian's words.

It is obviously irrational to place our hopes on hostile forces.

Xiao Honglian stood up and said, "That's it! Let Dong Hu take two strangers and 30 elite soldiers to the zombie's lair to investigate!"

……

The Snow Worshiping Sect is actually having the most uneventful life here.

They have too many followers, most of whom are ordinary people.

Although they can survive until now in the apocalypse, they all have a certain ability to save their lives.

But their little fighting power is not enough when facing creatures like zombies.

They may not be afraid of death, but they don't want to die.

How could a person with this kind of mentality possibly defeat a dead monster?

Even though Zheng Yixian organized everyone to be on guard, every time the zombies came, a large number of believers would die in the mouths of the zombies.

Slowly, the congregation began to feel dissatisfied.

Priest Wu Huan found Zheng Yixian and told him about some rhythms he had heard recently.

"Now the number of dead members of the congregation has reached more than 1000! Those infected members may also mutate."

"This has seriously shaken the faith of the new people. If this continues, something will happen!"

After hearing this, Zheng Yixian's face didn't show any emotion.

He put his hands behind his back and said calmly: "It doesn't matter. They just have some complaints and don't dare to take any substantive actions."

"In the past few days, you have arranged for some of our people to spread news among the congregation."

"Just tell them that almost all the survivors in the outside world were killed by zombies."

"Without the protection of the Snow Worship Cult, they have no chance to fight back when the zombies attack."

"And other forces are retreating steadily in the face of the zombie tide, with more casualties. They are even close to the edge of collapse!"

"Well... let's just say that more than half of the people in other forces have died!"

Wu Huan's eyes lit up after listening to Zheng Yixian's words.

"This is wonderful! Without comparison, there is no harm."

"As long as they think that there are corpses everywhere outside, they will feel that their current life is pretty good. They will not complain about our Snow Worship Cult!"

Zheng Yixian glanced at him, with a faint smile on his lips.

"The reason why they still complain is because they are not religious enough to the Snow Worship Cult."

"Their education must also be accelerated to make them devout believers."

"This way they will understand that they should be secretly happy to join the Snow Worship Cult at this time."

Wu Huan clapped his hands excitedly.

"It has to be you, High Priest! I understand, I will arrange for someone to do it right away."

Among the new believers, they arranged some old believers to be responsible for teaching them doctrines and brainwashing them.

For religion, this is an essential procedure.

……

On the other side, Zhang Yi brought the most powerful combat force in the entire shelter and was ready to enter the subway passage to find the mysterious corpse king.

Four people and one cat, all armed to the teeth.

Now all their equipment has been upgraded.

The combat uniforms everyone wears are versions modified by Lu Keran.

It has extremely strong defensive capabilities and can even withstand bullets from small sniper rifles.

Not to mention the zombie's bite, which is not even a tickle for it.

In order to cope with the long battle, everyone also carries a large amount of supernatural food.

As for other supplies, there is no need to carry them.

Because they have always stayed in Zhang Yi's different space, they can be easily taken out at any time if they want to use them.

Having a space-based teammate beside you is particularly convenient at any time.

Four people and one cat took a vehicle to the entrance of Ciqu Subway Station.

Looking at the dark cave entrance in front of him, Zhang Yi once again stated the battle plan to several people before setting off.

"Killing the Corpse King is our primary goal this time!"

"As long as I can find it, I'm 100% sure to kill it!"

In a narrow space like an underground tunnel, within 300 meters, Divine Power can destroy everything.

"But all of this must be based on our personal safety. Don't go too far and fight the zombies. No matter how many those things kill, there is no point."

Everyone nodded, indicating that they understood very well.

Then Zhang Yi took out a fluorescent stick from his waist, pulled off the cover and threw it to the entrance of the cave.

Soon, the blue glow stick fell to the ground, reflecting the black blood-stained ground around it.

"Uncle You, go down first!"

Zhang Yi said to Uncle You.

As the tank with the strongest defense in the team, it is safest for Uncle You to go down.

Uncle You slid down the cave without saying a word.

After a few seconds, he landed on the ground and looked around cautiously.

Through the tactical eyepiece, he did not see any biological reaction, and then informed Zhang Yi through the communication device: "It's safe down there, you can come over!"

Only then did Zhang Yi and the others slide down the cave.

After everyone landed on the ground, they observed the surrounding scene.

They haven't arrived in the subway yet, this is just the entrance to the subway.

Through the night vision function of the tactical goggles, the underground scenes are clearly presented in front of everyone.

Although they had experienced many big scenes, the scene in front of them still made them feel a little creepy.

There were black blood stains everywhere on the wall, and there were even internal organs stuck to the wall.

The feet were sticky, with torn internal organs and black blood, mixed with soil, exuding an extremely fishy smell.

Fortunately, they were wearing tactical helmets that filtered out the bad smell.

"Let's go!"

Zhang Yi took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.

The second canal is the terminal station. As long as you go forward along here, you can find traces of the corpses.

The corpse king's wisdom is not very high and he is still growing, so he won't hide it too deeply and should be able to find it.

As they moved forward, a large number of mutilated skeletons gradually appeared in the dark subway.

The stumps and broken arms had no flesh and blood on them, and were covered with fine tooth marks.

They should be bones that have been chewed by zombies.

Everyone walked past the corpses, and Fatty Xu said in disbelief: "I'm curious, if they ate these corpses, why didn't they choose to infect them into zombies as well?"

Zhang Yi held the rifle and carefully observed the surroundings while answering:

"The instinct of zombies is only to eat, while infection is a passive ability. I think they are probably too hungry, so they eat more. You can't expect that corpses that have been chewed into bones can also mutate, right?"

Fatty Xu said: "It can be seen that they have a big appetite. After all, judging from their movement patterns, they must need to eat a lot."

He suddenly asked curiously: "Hey, tell me. There are more dead people than living people in Tianhai City. If there are more than 10 million zombies, wouldn't there be nothing to eat?"

Zhang Yi's footsteps paused, and Liang Yue and Uncle You also looked at each other.

They had not considered this issue before, after all, they were all focusing on their own one-third of an acre of land.

Yes, what will those zombies do if they don't get enough food?

Will it spread from Tianhai City to other cities?
