Chapter 138: The Flesh Grinding Wheel

Continuous explosions sounded, and the buildings around which no survivors had been confirmed collapsed rapidly.

The ruins of the buildings that fell spread to both sides along the highway intersection, forming an arc-shaped high wall, connecting the hills on both sides, and building a fairly good barrier line.

Dozens of earth awakeners rushed to the front, and under the cover of the reinforcement warriors, they activated their abilities to make the high wall more solid.

Gong Zhan led a group of reinforcement warriors, carrying heavy machine guns and quickly climbed up the high wall. As the heavy machine guns fell one after another, they adjusted their posture.

The roar of bullets sounded quickly, and the group of corpses climbing the high wall fell down in unison. The second-level copper-armored corpses that could almost ignore the power of rifles were still beaten into a hornet's nest in front of these metal torrents.

The firepower network formed by more than 30 heavy machine guns quickly relieved the pressure on the defense line, but the consumption of bullets increased rapidly.

Two minutes later, the high wall that stretched for hundreds of meters was full of yellow bullet shells.

The barrels of heavy machine guns began to glow red and hot. Facing the endless stream of zombies, more than 30 water awakeners directly used their superpowers, and streams of water quickly cooled the barrels, and the sound of "da da da" sounded again.

"Gong Zhan, in ten seconds, I will move the heavy machine gun's firepower network forward 50 meters. You will deal with the empty part!"

Ye Jianfeng's order sounded from the headset. Gong Zhan clenched the rifle in his hand and replied decisively:

"Guarantee to complete the task!"

Ten seconds passed in a flash, the heavy machine gun's firepower stopped abruptly, and quickly adjusted to move forward 50 meters, and roared again.

"Attack team! Follow me and block the front-line zombie army!"

Gong Zhan shouted angrily, even the roar of the heavy machine gun could not cover his voice.

"Use me to win!"

A group of melee awakened warriors shouted in unison, raised their rifles and kept shooting, and jumped off the high wall one after another.

Gong Zhan was shining with golden light and rushed directly to the second-level zombies in the zombie group.

At the same time, countless bullets poured towards the zombies, and the best of the melee awakened warriors also rushed towards the first and second level zombies in the zombies.

On the high wall, the elemental awakened warriors began to release their superpowers, and each of them held a crystal core in their hands.

A blood and flesh grinding disc formed within a hundred meters below, constantly harvesting the zombie army.

Ye Jianfeng stood on the top of a mountain on one side, holding a telescope and observing continuously. Behind him was a continuous stream of logistics troops, and many volunteers from the public helped to transport supplies.

In just half an hour, Ye Jianfeng estimated that the team had cleared tens of thousands of zombies, but in the field of view of the telescope, the zombies were still densely packed within a few kilometers ahead.

Ye Jianfeng frowned, his expression was still serious, and he kept hearing the reconnaissance reports from the helicopter.

The zombies in the city center heard the noise and were gathering in a continuous stream.

From the highway intersection to the ruins of the high wall, in a short range of one kilometer, the number of survivors found was less than two thousand.

Although the population around here is not dense, this number is too small.

Ye Jianfeng vaguely felt that the number of survivors in this city might be far lower than the leaders' expectations.

Songlin County, where the military region is located, has only 200,000 people in peacetime, but after a few days of searching, only about 7,000 to 8,000 survivors were found.

For these people, the few soldiers lost more than 200.

Now, if we want to rescue all the survivors in Chuncheng, I don't know how many of these remaining soldiers can be left.

Ye Jianfeng couldn't help but feel a little sad.

But as a soldier, this is a mission that must be carried from the moment you put on the military uniform.

On the viaduct of the East Third Ring Road, Wang Mingyang silently put down the telescope.

Although he couldn't see clearly, he could fully imagine the cruelty of this battle.

Although the army has powerful firepower, the army's goal is to rescue the survivors.

Missiles, such weapons with great lethality, must not be used. In this case, only traditional thermal weapons can play a role.

Facing a tide of more than a million zombies, one careless mistake will result in the annihilation of the entire army.

"I hope the commander can be smarter. With so many zombies, the only right way is to keep eating them."

Wang Mingyang looked into the distance and muttered to himself. The zombies in the city center had been attracted and were gathering from all directions to the northern battlefield.

If they were all ordinary zombies, the army's firepower would naturally allow them to move forward and backward freely.

Once there are advanced zombies of level 3, level 4, or even level 5, I'm afraid the losses of this army will be extremely heavy.

With so many crystal cores, Gong Zhan is likely to push himself directly to level 3 or even level 4.

After all, he is not like Wang Mingyang, who has many superpowers and has undergone several enhancements to continuously consolidate his foundation.

The disadvantage of having a too solid foundation is that the accumulation required for promotion is also several times, or even dozens of times, that of others.

Among the possible 200,000 or 300,000 survivors, there will be high-level superpower awakeners such as Gong Zhan, Su Yu, Mu Ningxue, and Li Yuchan, who can be promoted to level 2 or even level 3 in just ten days.

Then who knows what kind of powerful alien species will appear among the millions of zombies or mutant creatures.

From the perspective of probability alone, the probability of alien species appearing is definitely higher than the probability of powerful humans appearing.

Putting aside the thoughts in his mind for the time being, the 100-meter iron pillar under his feet quickly turned into liquid, dragging Wang Mingyang slowly down.

The zombies around had already been cleared by Su Yu and the other two, and they all took a crystal core and slowly absorbed it.

"Brother Mingyang, what happened?"

Su Yu asked hurriedly when he saw Wang Mingyang coming down.

"Well, the army launched a rescue from the north, and the zombies in the city center gathered there." Wang Mingyang briefly described the scene he saw.

Su Yu's eyes lit up, "So, is there hope for the liberation of the city?"

"How can it be that simple? The straight-line distance from the north to here is at least 30 kilometers. There are millions of zombies, which are not so easy to clean up."

Wang Mingyang shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I guess the army must be unable to cope with such a large number of zombies."

"Let's go, do what we should do first."

Wang Mingyang waved his hand and sat directly in the car. Su Yu's eyes were disappointed, and Zhu Bai and Tang Bao were silent.

The off-road vehicle started quickly and drove towards the direction of the Eastern Bus Station.
