MTL - Darkness is Coming-Chapter 26 Yuanjiang People's War

   Yang Xiaoqian was drenched in a hot meal of vermicelli, sweating profusely.

   And the owner of the mansion not only did not come to eat together, but also decided to stay instead of going to Paradise Island. Unexpectedly, it is reasonable, they have never seen the tragic scene outside, and they may not know what the current situation of Yuanjiang is, and in their eyes, Yang Xiaoqian and his party who have never used their superpowers are just a group of strange behaviors. Gunmen, they have no reason to choose to follow a group of burglars instead of staying in the home where they feel most comfortable.

  Considering that their family of three did not seem to have the talents that they needed in particular, Yang Xiaoqian just let them go, thinking that after all, one more person on the road would have to be more diligent, and the risk factor would increase by one point. When the situation on Paradise Island is stable, and when the refugees are to go out to collect them, if they are still there, let's rescue them.

   "Boss Wang, Dad, both of you go to rest for a while to ensure your physical strength. We will set off in three hours." Yang Xiaoqian said.

   Yang Yan didn't say much, nodded and went upstairs to the room where Yang Xiaoqian was staying, while Wang Li said with a smile, "Just call me Wang Li."

  Yang Xiaoqian nodded, motioning him to seize the time to rest, turned to look at Yu Qian and said, "Do me a favor?"

   "What?" Yu Qian asked.

   "I need to use my abilities to do some experiments." Yang Xiaoqian explained, "In addition, I want to catch a living corpse to study it."

   "Why do you study that thing?" Yu Qian's eyes widened.

"Knowing oneself and knowing the enemy can help you survive a hundred battles. I think we should at least know the degree of retention of their five senses and their athletic ability. If conditions permit, I want to see if they can create useful value for me." Yang Xiaoqian thought of the man who cut two zombies in The Walking Dead comics. He put a necklace on his arm and let the zombies give the fierce woman in his backpack, thinking that maybe I can catch hundreds of live corpses and use them to generate electricity, but I don't know if the energy in their brain cores will be exhausted. Still a perpetual motion machine.

   "Besides the usefulness of the brain nucleus, what else can a living corpse use?" Yu Qian was not surprised by the idea of ​​Yang Xiaoqian's escape for the first time, but every time Yang Xiaoqian was able to refresh his three views.

"Uh, I can't explain this for a while, but it's the function of the brain nucleus. Can you explain it to me?" Yang Xiaoqian said while looking at the outer layer of Yu Qian's backpack, which was full of brain nuclei. It is said that these things are likely to infect others, and it is still unclear what the purpose of this brain nucleus is.

   "I couldn't explain it to you for a while, but you'll know when you get back to Paradise Island." Yu Qian said firmly.

Maybe he has some kind of black technology that can convert the biological energy in the brain core into electrical heat energy or other energy, Yang Xiaoqian muttered, and turned back to the main topic: "I'm going to grab a living corpse now, prepare this thick chain. Well, as soon as I come back you will tie up the corpse, okay?"

  Yu Qian nodded, the chain floated on its own, twisting and dancing like a dragon.

  Yang Xiaoqian walked out the door generously, looked around, and soon saw a staggering zombie more than 40 meters away.

   "It's up to you." A chain appeared on Yang Xiaoqian's forehead, the seal was wide open, and a dark figure suddenly appeared beside him. He was at least three meters tall, and his body width was relatively narrow.

   "Looks like my shadow warrior." Yang Xiaoqian smiled, looking at the black giant next to the guard, with an indescribable intimacy in his heart, as if it was part of his body.

   "I don't know what material it is made of, so others can't see it. Huh?" Yang Xiaoqian's keen observation made Yang Xiaoqian notice that under the black giant's feet, the flowers and plants on the lawn were crushed.

   It seems to be a real object, but I don't know what material it is made of and other people can't see it, and I don't know how I summoned it when I used my abilities. It's completely unscientific. Yang Xiaoqian thought to himself, reached out his hand and gently stroked the black giant's calf, but he didn't feel any touch.

   "In my opinion, you are pitch-black and invisible in the eyes of others. Why don't you just call it 'Black Ghost'? Hey, what do you think of this name?" Yang Xiaoqian laughed and said.

   The sluggish figure of the black giant moved, and he made a fist with his right hand and raised his thumb to gesture at Yang Xiaoqian.

   "Hi, hi." Yang Xiaoqian's own voice came from the black giant's head.

   "Hey, I'll go." Yang Xiaoqian was shocked, raised his head to look at the faceless head of the black giant, "Can you speak?"

   "Hi, Hi." Same voice, same tone.

   "Is that only one sentence?" Yang Xiaoqian tried to communicate with his mind, but it was still fruitless. Fortunately, although he could not receive a reply, but his thoughts turned, the orders he issued would be accepted and executed by the Black Phantom.

   "Get that stupid zombie back first." This thought flashed in Yang Xiaoqian's mind, and the Black Phantom acted immediately.

   The staggering zombie was lifted up by the invisible black ghost, and inexplicably danced in the air, "flying" all the way to the villa.

"Quick." Yang Xiaoqian shouted as soon as he asked the black ghost to put down the zombies. With his voice, the iron chain shot out, surrounding the zombies, binding his hands and feet so that they could not move, and he struggled for a while. He lost his balance and fell to the ground, his unblocked mouth still opening and closing frantically, and his two rows of teeth clenched.

   At this time, Yang Xiaoqian pointed at the immobile zombies on the ground and shouted, "Hey, evildoer, look at my magic weapon, the corpse lock!"

   "What time is it, stop playing." Yu Qian really wanted to loosen the chain to scare this inexplicable bastard.

   "Okay, stop playing." Yang Xiaoqian put on the prepared gloves with a smile, "I want you to cooperate with the knife, um, where to start? Eyes or ears?"

  ………………

  The billows of black smoke up to 100 meters rose from Chaoyang Square, dyeing the pale yellow sky printed by the dome into pitch black. It was a mountain of corpses being burned.

   After a catastrophe, there must be a great plague. In order to avoid the plague as much as possible, all the corpses must be burned. Although it is slightly inhumane, burning it into ashes is better than being eaten by zombies.

   Zhao Jiang is not worried at all about whether this move will attract a large number of zombies. If possible, he would like to attract all the zombies here to fight to the death with sufficient morale and supplies.

   Looking at Liu Yuanzhou, who was wearing a hospital suit and brought a bunch of bad news, Zhao Jiang sighed slightly, and asked again, "There are no survivors at the air raid shelter command post?"

   "Yes, Colonel Zhao, you are now the top commander of the system in the Yuanjiang territory." Liu Yuanzhou didn't say the word "temporary", the dome was above, who knows how long everyone will be trapped here.

What's the point of   , Zhao Jiang said in his heart that he can only command his own troops for the time being until effective communication is restored.

   "If you burn the corpse like this, will the smoke infect healthy people, or mutate the birds like in the movie?" Zhao Jiang asked instead.

Liu Yuanzhou didn't answer, and looked at the doctor who had rescued him from the first hospital. The doctor thought about it and said with certainty: "Bacteria and virus infections are all specific, and now we don't know how this infectious disease transforms normal people into normal people. The principle of zombies, but it is almost impossible for this infectious disease to infect birds, insects or other mammals."

"Sure?"

"It is certain that the circulatory system, sensory system, and motor system in different organisms are very different. No matter what the mechanism of the virus is, it should not have the ability to infect other animals, but those animals may become carriers of the virus. To say that it is transformed by infection, it is unlikely." The doctor said affirmatively.

   Zhao Jiang nodded happily. If all the mice and birds in the city turned into zombie rats and zombie birds, then the 258th Brigade would not be able to survive this vicious battle.

"Colonel Zhao, I think our battle plan needs to be adjusted." Liu Yuanzhou said softly, Zhao Jiang frowned and glanced at Liu Yuanzhou with great dissatisfaction, even if this guy is the mayor's nephew, he will score points Let’s look at the timing of the occasion. Now that Mayor Liu has sacrificed his life for the country, he just came to his own three-thirds of an acre of land to talk about the issue of the battle plan lightly, and he took himself too seriously.

But Liu Yuanzhou didn't look at his face, and continued: "If we can contact the outside world and get assistance from the outside world, this is just a large-scale SARS, and the national epidemic prevention system must properly solve this incident. But now With our isolation, Colonel Zhao, this will be a war."

   "It's not only our war with zombies, but also the war between the people of Yuanjiang and the virus, the environment, and chaos. If we don't make a comprehensive plan early, we will definitely fail." Liu Yuanzhou said solemnly.

   "A war with the environment and chaos?" Zhao Jiang is indeed dissatisfied with Liu Yuanzhou's second generation, but he is not an arrogant and arrogant person, and he must listen to correct opinions.

"Yes, nothing can get in, nothing can get out. If it's too far away, we don't even know whether the vegetation on the far river can carry out photosynthesis. Moreover, the city is in chaos now, if the crowd cannot be concentrated. Avoid the corpse tide and concentrate firepower to eliminate the corpse tide. The number of zombies will definitely snowball. At that time, everyone will only be able to escape and will not be able to engage in production. The urban system such as water, electricity, and transportation will completely collapse. , food, drinking water will be in short supply. We will not be able to manage this city well, and everyone will have to wait to die.”

   Zhao Jiang was taken aback. He is a professional soldier, and his military capabilities are absolutely nothing, but he has never had any experience in considering urban management in a macro level. Maybe he can use his military knowledge to fight the corpse tide, but so what, a city that is out of order and unmanaged, even if there are no zombies, it is a dangerous place.

   "Director Liu, I don't have time to manage that set now. You have been with Mayor Liu all the year round. You should have experience with this? Are you interested in serving me as a deputy to Zhao?" Zhao Jiang asked.

"I'm happy to serve." Liu Yuanzhou lowered his forehead slightly and said, "By the way, I also brought the remnants of the armed police detachment led by Geng Zhiping. I hope that Colonel Zhao will not disperse them and reorganize them before expanding the army, and let them follow Let me form a special action team to facilitate coordinated operations."

When did I say that I would expand the army, Zhao Jiang was stunned for a moment, but then he thought about it, the erosion of the situation in Yuanjiang cannot be controlled by three or four thousand people in the 258 Brigade, recruiting veterans, recruiting reservists and recruiting new troops is that inevitability.

   "Yes, but you can find a way for the equipment." Zhao Jiang thought for a while and nodded in agreement.

  Liu Yuanzhou was about to thank him when he suddenly felt a sensation in his heart. He looked to the west and saw a dark shadow but he couldn't see it clearly. He took out his binoculars and looked again, but he couldn't see anything.

Where Liu Yuanzhou looked, a deformed creature shrouded in a thick robe shrank in the shadow of the corner. Ten long fingernails as sharp as knives scraped the ground on both hands, leaving trails two centimeters deep on the floor tiles. scratches.

   After scratching a messy graffiti, the long nails lifted the hat, revealing a normal face, it was Li Jinkui who was rescued by Liu Yuanzhou!

"Hey, hey, it's said that I beat the young ones to the old ones. I didn't expect that I would have to deal with the young ones after eating the old ones." Li Jinkui smiled grimly, touched his face with his hand and looked at his deformity. "It's not enough, it's not enough, I have to eat more, and then I can completely transform into a normal person. At that time, hey, hey hey hey."

  Li Jinkui's red eyes stared at the direction of Chaoyang Square, which is his food warehouse. Without his own efforts, these people will definitely gather food for him.
