Chapter 178: Leaving the Slums
While Jill and John Wick's mission was progressing smoothly, Gardner, as the captain, saw some not-so-good things and had a premonition of a crisis.
At this time, he was standing on the bank of a small river with the commandos and snipers. Looking down, he saw garbage and zombies floating on the river.
The water here is still flowing, but in a slightly uncomfortable way.
There were so many zombies in the garbage river that it almost filled the river. Not only zombies, but also many zombie rats stepped on the zombies' heads and ran to the lower reaches of the river.
The sewage pipes originally buried on both sides of the river have now become a paradise for rats.
Although the water in the slums is dirty, it is always connected to the outside world. Zombies and rats blend perfectly with the garbage floating on the river.
The most important thing is the flow of the river…
Gardner doesn't think the lax Indian police outside will clean the rivers carefully enough to prevent the virus from quietly flowing out of the slums.
"Captain, we have found the original infected person. It is said that he is the first infected person to be discovered."
Jill's paging voice in the earphone stopped Gardner from thinking about the impending large-scale outbreak of the virus. He said in the channel: "Take samples, then bring the survivors, and we will leave here."
The reason I was eager to leave was because there were already two huge sources of infection in Mumbai, the Dharavi slum and the plane at the Mumbai airport.
They want to return to New York before air traffic control to investigate the sudden zombie transformation of passengers on the plane. In general, they want to see how long it will take for the world to enter a state of total collapse...
It is indeed unpleasant to say this, but after seeing the current situation in Dharavi and the appearance of the zombies here, Gardner had to believe that the conjecture would become a reality.
Zombies will replace all life on this planet and become the masters of this planet.
It is true that simple zombies can be eliminated without injury as long as a person has a gun and occupies a favorable terrain, but the size of animals such as zombie rats will make everyone feel afraid of being in the same cage with ferocious beasts.
After receiving the gathering message, the exploration team immediately returned to the central area of the slum, taking the two survivors who gradually calmed down, and prepared to leave the slum.
Ta-ta-ta!
There were more gunshots around the slums. Through the observation of the micro-drone, it was zombies attacking the defense line of an area.
"The number of soldiers is too small, there are not many heavy weapons, and the logistics cannot keep up..." What came out of Kevin's mouth was a strong voice of disgust for the Indian soldiers.
It may be that the zombie tide created by Jill and John Wick previously broke the pattern of zombie activity in the slums, or it may be that survivors appeared in that direction, attracting the attention of the zombies, and that line of defense has been crowded by hungry zombies. Full.
Rifles and submachine guns equipped with silencers fired continuously, and the dead zombies became the stepping stones for the zombies behind. The zombies were not capable of trampling on the corpses of their companions. They were piled up one after another and gradually formed a hill, heading towards the outside of the defense line. The Indian soldiers pressed forward.
The Indian army stepped back, drove over several armored vehicles, and the heavy machine guns on the vehicles burst out, and finally pushed back the group of corpses.
Then the Indian army on the position fired several strange mortar shells into the slums, with a series of ear-piercing howling sounds. Some of the zombies attracted by the gunfire immediately turned around and ran back into the slums.
These scenes were recorded, but the exploration team had already taken two survivors and left the slum when the tide of corpses attracted Indian soldiers.
Naturally, the two survivors could not continue to be carried with them. The team simply found a street and threw them out, leaving them alone and headed to the nearest police station in the city.
Under the leadership of Gardner, several members of the team broke into the police station directly. The fat policemen reacted almost vigilantly and confusedly when they saw these people.
"Let the person in charge here come out!"
Gardner's voice had been systematically processed, giving it an accent unique to a Brahmin. It immediately frightened the low-caste people in the police station. Without much suspicion, they hurriedly called the chief.
When the sleepy director, who didn't even put on his hat, came out and saw the seven members of the exploration team in the office, his eyes immediately widened. He stepped forward and asked cautiously: "I am the director, um, who are you... …”
Gardner took two steps forward, grabbed Director Asan by the collar, thrust his helmet directly in front of his face and shouted: "You still ask who we are now, the virus in the slums has been leaked Are you people still sleeping here?"
If his words weren't shocking enough, he simply picked up his palm and swung it lightly... Bang!
Director Ah San received a slap on the face, staggered two steps, covered his cheek, his eyes were full of confusion, but he couldn't get angry, and there were several questions lingering in his head, who are they? What did I do? Wasn’t the virus taken over by the military and SWAT?
After letting go of Director Asan, Gardner pointed outside the station and shouted: "Now, prepare a vehicle for us immediately, and you come with me to the airport! Hurry!"
With confusion and belated anger, Director Ah San pointed at the police officers around him who dared not even let go of a fart and cursed angrily: "Didn't you hear what I said? Go prepare the car quickly!"
…
"Kevin, put a hologram on your wrist computer to give them a little more trust." After finishing the improvisation, Gardner felt that this was not enough and asked Kevin to show off his skills.
Kevin, who was forcing himself to hold back his laughter, immediately did as he was told, and even added drama on his own, asking the intelligent system to create a fake communication interface with "Grand Commander" written in Hindi on it, and began to act on the spot.
"Grand Commander, we have just finished the investigation, but there were some accidents in the blockade area, and our car was damaged. We are now borrowing a vehicle from the local police station and preparing to transfer to the plane to the Union."
In the holographic image interface, the dark face began to tremble, "You are all heroes! At all costs, the samples must be sent to the Union. We don't have much time. The safety of hundreds of millions of people depends on you!"
The holographic image screen in front of him, coupled with the information he heard, shocked Director Asan so much that he lost the ability to control his expression, and his eyes changed when he looked at the exploration team.
Is their Great India so powerful! They even created this kind of magic-like technology!
These people are actually carrying out a secret mission, and the mission involves the safety of the earth!
Director Asan automatically translated billions of people into the world, and the confused and shocked look disappeared completely, as if he had instantly entered a thrilling movie about saving the world. The members of the team were the protagonists, and he might be an indispensable supporting role in the great cause.
In an instant, it seemed as if the lives of billions of lives were weighing on his shoulders.
Director Asan's expression became fierce, and the young man's blood, which had been silent for many years, began to surge. He led the seven members of the exploration team to the open space in front of the police station.
He straightened his hat, pulled down the original driver of the vehicle, sat in the driver's seat, and greeted the seven members of the inexplicable exploration team seriously: "Let's go!"
