#219 - Chapter 219 The zombie tide is coming!
Two PM.
The dark clouds in the sky increased slightly, and after the sunlight was blocked, intermittent shadows appeared on the ground.
Inside the base's quarantine zone.
The hundreds of construction worker survivors had just finished lunch, and they weren't shortchanged in the slightest; rations were still distributed according to the standard.
After eating, they rested and dozed off in their respective positions.
The tall walls gave them an unprecedented sense of security!
"If only we could live here forever, I really envy those people in the Green Source Base!"
Li Shenglin's group sat around in a corner near the edge, and Xiao Cong, full and satisfied, couldn't help but sigh as he stared at the wall beside him.
"Forget it, I heard that the Green Source Base isn't taking any more people. We can only help them with work or trade supplies for food."
Old Liang, who was next to him, leaned against the wall, his hands behind his head, and said slowly.
"Yeah, I really envy those who joined early, but as long as we keep working hard, we'll have a chance in the future!"
Li Shenglin, his eyes shining, lowered his voice and said from the side.
"Don't forget they're building a branch base. They already have this many people, and when it's finished, they'll definitely need new personnel!"
"That's our chance!"
He glanced around after the last two sentences, and only spoke carefully after confirming that no one was paying attention.
The people in the group were enlightened and didn't dare to make a sound either.
In fact, many people had the same idea as them.
Smart survivors could guess that once the branch base was built, there was a high probability that new people would be recruited to move in!
Many people were eyeing this and tried their best to perform well in their usual work.
In order to gain some extra points and increase their chances of entering in the future.
Everyone knew this without saying it.
"Everyone, pay attention! Our base needs manpower to help with something. I'll call out names in a bit, and those people should gather here at the inside of the gate!"
Just as the survivors were resting, Wang Yang's figure emerged from the wall. He shouted directly from the high ground with a loudspeaker.
Before anyone else could react, he had already started reading out names.
"Chen Gang, Wang Wei, Zhao Debiao, Hu Musen, Li Shenglin, Liang Youzhi, Liang Defa..."
A series of names came from the loudspeaker in his hand. Those who heard their names were naturally shocked, and then slowly walked to the gate leading to the inside of the base.
Soon the names were finished, about thirty or forty people.
At the gate, the others discovered that these selected survivors were basically strong, middle-aged men!
The inner gate opened a little, revealing Wang Yang's figure. He leaned out and called to these people:
"Come with me!"
The selected people naturally didn't dare to delay, this was likely an opportunity to perform!
Thus, in the envious eyes of the remaining survivors, they followed Wang Yang into the Green Source Base.
Before they could carefully observe the scenery inside, Wang Yang was already urging them:
"Hurry up! To the walls!"
The others reluctantly turned their gazes away and quickly climbed up the walls.
At this time, there were already many people waiting on the walls. When Liu Wenhao saw Wang Yang leading the survivors, he quickly shouted:
"Those of you who came up, spread out along the walls! Each person stands in a position, pick up the spears and prepare to resist the zombies below!"
When Chen Gang and Li Shenglin and the others heard this, they turned to look down at the bottom of the wall, and a chill went straight to the top of their heads!
Hiss!
They saw that a large number of zombies had gathered under the wall!
The number of those intercepted and tripped up in the distance was estimated to be two or three thousand!
And there were already three or four thousand who had run to the bottom of the wall!
Close to ten thousand!
"Damn! Is it that corpse fog day again!? Why are there so many zombies!!"
Chen Gang exclaimed in horror!
He had an extremely deep impression of the corpse fog day; he almost died that night!
Afterwards, through the Green Source Base's leaflets, everyone knew that zombies would go berserk in that purple fog weather, which was called corpse fog day.
But, there doesn't seem to be any purple fog outside now?
"It's not corpse fog day! It's just that too many survivors have been gathering here recently, and they've all been attracted after the ice and snow melted!"
"We need everyone to work together to resist the impact of these zombies. Everyone, take up your weapons and kill the zombies below!"
Hearing that it wasn't corpse fog day, Chen Gang and many others breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as it wasn't that kind of terrifying disaster, they were now on such a magnificent wall, and with the Green Source personnel's firearms suppressing them from the side, it shouldn't be a big problem.
Without questioning, these survivors began to pick up the spears beside them and stab at the zombies that had already surrounded them.
Several thousand surrounded the bottom, spread out, and at this moment the corpse tower stacked up was already three or four meters high.
Still, because the zombies weren't berserk at the moment, nor were they as strong as they were at night.
With the addition of new manpower, the pressure on the walls was reduced slightly, and the base personnel took the opportunity to rest.
Since the incident at noon, most of them had been fighting continuously for two or three hours. Even though they had been training recently, they felt a certain degree of fatigue.
There were hundreds of manpower in the quarantine zone, and it would be a bit of a waste not to transfer some up; there was no point in not using them.
Chen Gang and Wang Wei didn't expect that they would have a day to return to their old profession from the Wan City base.
"Old Wang, does it feel familiar!"
"It has to! We did this for a month or two!"
"Yeah! I didn't expect Green Source to be resisting the zombie impact in this way too! But this is much stronger than the Wan City base before! If the Wan City base had half of this that night, maybe it wouldn't have been breached!?"
The two sighed as they stabbed the zombies. They were too familiar with this kind of work, they had mechanically done it countless times before.
Besides them on the wall, other survivors were also learning the actions of the others beside them, striving to perform better.
This scene was naturally seen by the Green Source personnel next to them.
"Hmm, those two have good skills."
Wang Yang was also recording all of this beside him.
The leader's office.
Qin Jin watched this scene through the camera screen on the wall.
After the incident at noon, all the other team members who had gone out had returned to the base at top speed.
Except for those team members who went out, all the base personnel returned safely.
Now, besides the survivors in the quarantine zone, those who traded and cooperated with them could only rely on themselves.
I don't know how many people will be left after this wave of impact.
During this period, he had also sent helicopters out again to check the situation outside, and he could see countless zombies converging here.
Abandoning all illusions, he knew that he could only take out the real thing to deal with this disaster.
It was still afternoon, and nearly ten thousand zombies had arrived.
There were even more zombies running on their legs in the distance, and the longest diameter of Fenghe County was only forty or fifty kilometers. Calculating the location of the Green Source Base, it was estimated that in a few hours, the zombie army would arrive!
Everything was ready, just waiting for the zombies to come!
