#871 - Chapter 871 Zombies appearing on the sea

The night sky at dawn.

A series of loud rumbles cut through the air.

Some survivors, who were not soundly asleep, were startled awake and pricked up their ears, wondering which celestial being was traveling at this hour.

Wasn't it so?

In this apocalyptic era, those who still had the energy to venture out in the freezing cold in the middle of the night were definitely celestial beings to most ordinary survivors.

Oh no.

Even for most average or relatively powerful factions, they were big shots they couldn't afford to provoke.

Not every large faction possessed helicopters.

After all, not many people were lucky enough to find usable aircraft after the apocalypse.

Of course, the survivors who heard the rumbling would only sigh a few times before shrinking back into their blankets to keep warm and sleep.

For most humans, the most important thing right now was to survive the cold of this winter.

——————————

As many as eight helicopters were flying in a certain direction in the night sky.

Who else could it be but the combat troops dispatched from Green Source Base!

Sitting in one of the armed helicopters, Qin Jin was arranging the tactics that might be used next in the team channel.

He wasn't sure if Fuhai Base could repair the radar in time to detect their arrival, nor did he know if they had any other aircraft besides those destroyed helicopters.

He also had to consider the possibility that the enemy had drones.

This time, he had to ensure a decisive victory against the ship-based base!

Failure was absolutely not allowed!

The other captains and squad leaders understood the tactics ordered by the leader and knew that they were taking advantage of the night to avenge Captain Li Bowen, who had fallen into a coma, and the many sacrificed teammates!

Their fighting spirit was high!

The helicopter group continued to fly in the direction of Fuhai Base.

Qin Jin set off from Green Source Base at dawn. Recently, a southeast wind was blowing, and it only took about four hours to rush over, entering Fuhai City before five in the morning!

Arriving here, everyone became much more cautious, and Qin Jin asked everyone to be ready for battle at any time!

He wasn't sure if Fuhai Base could repair the early warning device in such a short time, but he couldn't gamble. If he encountered an insurmountable situation, he would turn around and leave with his subordinates.

The helicopter group continued to fly towards the location where the ship-based base was docked.

Everything was calm along the way.

"It's ahead!"

He muttered in his heart, his eyes already locked on that familiar direction.

However.

A strange situation occurred.

As the helicopter continued to fly, he found that it was actually empty!

Damn it!

Where was the ship-based base!?

Where did the Fuhai Base they were going to attack go!?

Where the hell did they go!?

At this time, the other captains also noticed something was wrong. The sea was calm under the night, not to mention the giant ship that the leader had mentioned when introducing the tactics, not even a small fishing boat could be seen...

What on earth happened?

Qin Jin's face was also very ugly. He compared the previous location with the surrounding environment and confirmed that the ship-based base was docked at this location before!

But now it was gone!

Did they run away after receiving the previous helicopter attack!?

That's not right either.

Qin Jin personally destroyed the ship-based base's main power room, using graphite bombs that were almost impossible to repair in a short time, one of the reasons being to paralyze the entire ship-based base, so that he could bring people over to attack later.

Now that the giant ship was gone, his first reaction was that the giant ship had started up and run away.

But that didn't make sense either.

He had stayed in the ship-based base for almost a month and had already figured out the style and general internal situation of this giant ship. He had specially studied that if it was to be started for navigation, it would definitely require a power supply.

This kind of giant ship cannot be started by simply burning fuel, it also needs to rely on electricity to drive various equipment inside, such as air conditioning systems, exhaust fans, and motors to cooperate with cooling and steering, etc.

It may be possible to start it up reluctantly, but it usually won't go far.

"Everyone spread out and scout around!"

Helpless, Qin Jin could only arrange it this way.

The fastest way to think of it now was that the leader of this Fuhai Base saw that the situation was not good and forcibly ordered people to start the giant ship and sail in a certain direction.

Considering the moving speed of a seriously damaged giant ship, and considering that the other party should not dare to run to the deep sea, the greater possibility was that they ran to other coastal areas!

The key target of the Green Source Helicopter Brigade's search was the coastline on both sides.

After receiving the leader's instructions, the 8 helicopters quickly divided into different teams and dispersed. Anyone who made a discovery would immediately contact other teammates.

The original battle turned into a search mission.

————————————

An hour passed.

The Green Source Helicopter Group reunited at the original location of the ship-based base.

The search failed.

They searched along the coastline for a range of hundreds of kilometers, but they still couldn't see the giant ship of Fuhai Base.

"Could it be that they ran to a farther place!? Or did they run to the deep sea! ?"

Zhong Yu said uncertainly in the team channel.

He spoke the voice of many team members.

At this time, the target was not nearby at all, and it was very likely that it was moving to a farther sea area.

The Green Source Helicopter Group could not run over to chase it, because the remaining fuel of the helicopter had been used up, and it could only meet the amount for flying back, and it could not support them to continue searching.

Not to mention the vastness of the sea, without a definite direction and coordinates, it was tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.

They couldn't catch up.

"It shouldn't be!"

Qin Jin still couldn't believe that this Fuhai Base had run away like this.

When he was in the ship-based base before, he did a lot of simulations, and also specially thought about how to destroy the power system of the ship-based base, so that it would be convenient for him to go back to Green Source to move people to attack, so when he blew up the main power room, he was very confident that this force would not run far.

But the facts in front of him made him have to believe that he was prepared but was still escaped by the other party.

At this time, the sun in the sky began to rise higher and higher. Looking at the time, it was already past six o'clock.

Everyone felt that since the enemy had already escaped, this battle would probably not be completed, and the leader should withdraw the team and return.

But at this moment, bursts of exclamations rang out in the team channel!

"Everyone, look at the sea below!!"

"There are so many zombies in the sea!"

Zombies in the sea!?

What's going on again?

Hearing the news, the Green Source combat troops, including Qin Jin, turned their attention to the sea below, and they really saw many figures illuminated by the appearance of the sun!

What else could the human-shaped object that can move in the sea without breathing be if not zombies!?

Why are there zombies on the sea at this time?

It shouldn't be possible for land zombies to go swimming in the sea!?
