Chapter 138
Continuous explosions sounded, and the surrounding buildings that had been confirmed to have no survivors quickly collapsed.
The ruins of the smashed building spread out to both sides along the highway intersection, forming a high arc-shaped wall that connected the hills on both sides, creating a fairly good barrier line.
A dozen earth-type awakeners rushed to the front, and under the cover of the reinforcement-type warriors, they activated their abilities to make this high wall even tighter.
Gong Zhan led a group of reinforced warriors and quickly climbed up the high wall with a heavy machine gun. As the heavy machine guns crashed down, he adjusted his posture.
The roar of bullets sounded quickly, and a large group of corpses that were climbing the high wall fell down in unison. The second-level bronze-armored corpses, which 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 stretching hundreds of meters was covered with yellow bullet casings.
The barrels of the heavy machine guns began to glow red and hot. Facing the endless hordes of corpses, about thirty water awakeners directly used their powers. A stream of water quickly cooled the barrels, making a clicking sound. It rang again.
"Gong Zhan, after ten seconds, I will move the heavy machine gun's fire net forward 50 meters, and you will deal with the vacant part!"
Ye Jianfeng's order sounded from the headset. Gong Zhan tightened his grip on the rifle and replied decisively:
"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"
Ten seconds passed quickly, and the heavy machine gun fire suddenly stopped. It quickly adjusted and moved forward 50 meters, and roared again.
"Attack team! Follow me and block the forefront of the zombie army!"
Gong Zhan shouted angrily, and even the roar of heavy machine guns couldn't cover up his voice.
"Use me to win!"
A group of melee-type awakened warriors shouted angrily in unison, raised their rifles and fired continuously, and jumped off the high wall one after another.
Gong Zhan's body glowed with golden light and he pounced directly on the second-level zombies among the corpses.
At the same time, countless bullets poured towards the corpse group, and the best among the melee-type awakened warriors also pounced on the first- and second-level zombies in the corpse group.
On top of the high wall, the awakened warriors of the elemental system began to release their powers, each holding a crystal core in their hands.
A millstone of flesh and blood was formed 100 meters below, constantly harvesting the zombie army.
Ye Jianfeng stood on the top of a mountain, holding a telescope and observing continuously. Behind him were a steady stream of logistics troops and many volunteers helping to transport supplies.
In just half an hour, Ye Jianfeng estimated that the team had cleared away tens of thousands of zombies, but in the field of vision of the telescope, zombies were still densely covered within a few kilometers ahead.
Ye Jianfeng's brows were furrowed, his expression still serious, and helicopter reconnaissance reports kept coming to his ears.
The corpses in the city center heard the movement and were gathering in a steady stream.
In the short one kilometer area from the highway intersection to the high ruins wall, less than 2000 survivors were found.
Although the population around here is not dense, the number of people is really too small.
Ye Jianfeng had a vague feeling that the number of survivors in this city might be far lower than the leaders expected.
Songlin County, where the military region is located, has only 20 people in peacetime, but after several days of searching, only about [-] to [-] survivors were found.
For these people, the few soldiers lost more than 200 soldiers.
Now, if we want to rescue all the survivors in Spring City, we don't know how many of these remaining warriors can be left.
Ye Jianfeng couldn't help but feel a trace of sadness in his heart.
But as a soldier, this is the mission you must shoulder from the moment you put on that military uniform.
On the viaduct of the East Third Ring Road, Wang Mingyang silently put down his telescope.
Although he couldn't see clearly, he could fully imagine the brutality of this battle.
Although the army has powerful firepower, the purpose of the army is to rescue those survivors.
Weapons with such huge destructive power as missiles will definitely not be able to be used. In this case, only traditional thermal weapons can play a role.
Facing a tide of more than a million corpses, one mistake could result in the entire army being annihilated.
"I hope the commander can be smarter. With so many zombies, the only way is to keep eating away."
Wang Mingyang looked into the distance and muttered to himself. The corpses in the city center had been attracted and were gathering towards the northern battlefield from all directions.
If they were all ordinary zombies, they would be able to advance and retreat freely with the firepower of the army.
Once third-level, fourth-level, or even fifth-level advanced zombies appear, I am afraid that the losses of this unit will be extremely heavy.
With so many crystal cores, Gong Zhan is likely to push himself directly to the third or even fourth level.
After all, he is not like Wang Mingyang, who has many powers and has been strengthened several times 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 30 million survivors, there will be high-level awakened supernatural beings like Gong Zhan, Su Yu, Mu Ningxue and Li Yuchan, who can be promoted to the second level or even the third level in just ten days.
So among the millions of zombies or mutant creatures, who knows what kind of powerful alien species will appear.
From a purely probabilistic perspective, the probability of alien species appearing is definitely higher than the probability of powerful humans appearing.
Putting aside his thoughts for the time being, the [-]-meter iron pillar under his feet quickly turned into liquid, dragging Wang Mingyang down slowly.
The surrounding zombies had already been cleaned up by Su Yu and the others, and they all took a crystal core and slowly absorbed it.
"Brother Mingyang, what happened?"
Seeing Wang Mingyang coming down, Su Yu asked quickly.
"Well, the army launched a rescue operation from the north, and all the zombies in the city center gathered there." Wang Mingyang briefly described what he saw.
Su Yu's eyes lit up, "So, is it possible to liberate the city?"
"It can't be that simple. From the north to here, the straight-line distance is at least thirty kilometers. There are millions of zombies. How can it be so easy to clean up?"
Wang Mingyang shook his head and said with a wry smile, "I estimate that the army will definitely be unable to cope with such a large number of zombies."
"Let's go and do what you need to do first."
After waving his hand, Wang Mingyang sat directly in the car. Su Yu's eyes were filled with disappointment, and Zhu Bai and Tang Bao also remained silent.
The off-road vehicle started quickly and drove towards the Eastern Passenger Terminal.
