Chapter 278 Crisis 1

Would you like a cigarette? Captain."

To the southeast of Remter's outer defense line, a soldier climbed down the iron ladder from the sentry tower and took out a bag of crumpled cigarettes from his coat pocket and asked Green.

Green is 35 years old and is in the golden age of his life. HIS 190CM HEIGHT AND STRONG MUSCLES MAKE GREEN LOOK LIKE AN IRON TOWER. He has a square face and his chin is covered with cyan beard. Green's neck is short and thick, which makes him look like an iron block.

In fact, in Green's 20-year mercenary career, he, known for his belief in never falling, won the title of "Iron Man". In fact, the fifth-order strength and defense make Green really like an iron man, and it seems that he will never fall.

In Remtry, he and two other fifth-level capable people became the captain of the city's soldiers. Each of them led about 100 soldiers, and the three of them had different duties. Like Green, his team is mainly responsible for night defense. From 6 p.m. to 8 a.m. tomorrow, Green is working time. For this, he gets a reward of 1,000 yuan a month.

This reward is already very high in the wilderness. After all, ordinary soldiers are less than 100 yuan a month.

Reached out to take the cigarette handed over by the soldier. After the soldier decorated it with a lighter, a red light spot appeared in the night. Then the second red dot lit up, but the soldier himself lit one.

The soldier smoked and slowly exhaled a mouthful of hot smoke. The soldiers looked up at the flashing red warning lights in the direction of the residential area. It was late at night, and the citizens living in the ground floor buildings fell asleep early. Therefore, the scene of thousands of lights also disappeared. But there are still warning lights flashing, like a lighthouse in the night.

"What? Do you want to rent a house there? Green yawned and looked at the soldiers blankly.

The soldier smiled and shook his head to shake unrealistic ideas out of his head: "I really want to, but I'm still single. It seems too wasteful to rent a unit by myself."

"Then find a girl quickly." Green still said with a blank face.

"Who would like to live with a guy who doesn't know what will happen tomorrow? When needed, I prefer to go to the red light district to find some girls to be happy, at least that's what you and I want. The soldier laughed and said with a smile.

Green lowered his head and said in a voice he could only hear: "In this era of dog days, who knows what will happen to you tomorrow. Maybe there are, those old men..."

"Captain, what did you say?" The soldier obviously didn't hear Green's words and asked with long ears.

"Nothing." After extinguishing the remaining half of the cigarette and putting it in his pocket, Green looked at the soldier and said, "The night is still long. Wake up."

The soldier immediately stood up straight, threw away his cigarettes, and gave a military salute: "Yes, sir."

Green nodded and walked to the next whistle. After a few steps, he stopped and said without looking back, "Next time you go to the red light district, don't forget me."

"Good captain!"

The shouts of soldiers came from behind him, and Green's poker face finally showed a faint smile. He continued to walk, but at this moment, a slight vibration came from his feet, making Green in a trance for a moment.

earthquake?

Green was slightly stunned, but the vibration had disappeared, as if it had never appeared. Green shook his head and didn't pay attention to the shock.

The soldier climbed up the sentry tower along the iron ladder, and another young soldier was yawning on the sentry tower. Seeing his colleague appear, the soldier immediately straightened up.

"Relax, Yavik."

"Yes, Officer Jeno."

Jeno shook his head and said to the recruit, "Avik, how many times have I said it? The word "stor" is only suitable for Captain Green.

"Yes, sir!"

Jeno was defeated by the young soldier. He shook his head silently and gestured, "Take a break. I'll stand guard and change guard in two hours."

"Okay, sir." After saying that, the young soldier Yavik went to the corner of the sentry tower and sat down cross-legged, holding a gun and fell asleep.

"It's still a child." Jeno sighed. He put his hand on the railing of the sentry tower and looked at the vast land in the dark.

After Theon's step down, Jonok carried out a large-scale conscription. Teenage recruits like Yavik account for more than half of the total number of soldiers, and veterans like Jeno are very disapproving of the new chairman's approach. A so-called soldier does not become a qualified soldier with a gun in his hand. But for the new chairman, there seems to be no consideration in this regard.

Jonock cares more about the number of soldiers than the quality of soldiers.

The wilderness under the night seemed particularly cold, and the ruins of the city in the distance became strange silhouettes under the night. They seem to have stood here since ancient times and have changed at all. But Jeno knew that before the catastrophe, the huge city where Remter was located had at least three million people.

Prosperous!

A very old word came to Jeno's mind. In the new era, huge cities are not without, but they are far from the meaning expressed by the word prosperity. Remte is already a larger one in the surrounding wilderness cities. But Jeno still doesn't think it can have anything to do with prosperity. Whether it is urban civilization or economy, it is far from the standards of the old times.

At this time, in Geno's trance, there seemed to be a shadow shaking in the wilderness in the distance.

Shadow?

When the word was captured by the brain and expanded infinitely in the vague idea, Geno immediately picked up the battlefield telescope hanging next to him. The telescope was already in night vision mode, so Jeno picked it up and looked at it. From the telescope, it was a clear but shrouded in red.

Jeno adjusted the multiple of the telescope, and the picture in the equipment was immediately pulled closer, so Geno saw a person.

To be precise, it is a woman. She is wearing a one-fits-one nurse's robe, knee-high, revealing a pair of straight and long calves. Stockings are obviously still on the calves, but large holes have appeared in the stockings, thus revealing the woman's skin. She was dirty, and when Jeno saw her, the soldiers naturally had this idea.

Indeed, the woman in the telescope is far from clean. Large areas of stains appeared on her clothes. In the red night god mode, the stains looked like condensed blood spots. Half of the woman's face was wrapped in gauze, which looked like she was injured, so the unnatural feeling of her walking had a good explanation. But when Jeno saw her face missing half of her forehead, the soldier knew what he saw.

Living corpse, female living corpse! There is no doubt that women are such cursed monsters. The dead body mutated the body after the intervention of a certain virus, and the dead people came back to life. They have no intelligence, only the primitive instinct of killing, and hate everything alive. All living things that enter their sight will be killed in the most ruthless way.

At the same time, they release viruses from their bodies through saliva and blood when necessary, thus transforming the bitten prey into their own kind. This is the unique breeding mode of living corpses, and it is also the fastest and most effective breeding method among all mutasized organisms!

The telescope quickly adjusted the visual distance in Geno's hand, and the soldiers quickly saw a large shadow behind the female living body. A large number of living corpses are coming like ghosts from the ruins of the city in the direction of Remte. Jeno can't imagine what it would be like if this army of the dead poured into Remte.

"warning! Come on, Yavik, inform the captain that a large number of living corpses have appeared!" Jeno shouted loudly, hoping that his companions would act immediately.

But there was no response at the back.

Da Damn it! I told you before that new recruits are unreliable!

Jeno thought so in his mind and turned around at the same time. Yavik must still be sleeping, he thought. But in the sight, there was a horrible scene.

I don't know when a thin man lay next to Avik. The man has long hands and feet, and sharp bone spurs at the joints. He was holding something with his long nails. Jeno looked carefully and found that it was a skull with short hair all over his head. Looking at Yavik, the upper half of the recruit's head has been neatly opened, and the brain inside is still intact and trembles gently again and again.

Yavik looked calm and didn't seem to know that his head had been opened. Looking at this picture, Jeno wanted to say, "Avik, you are still fucking asleep, and your head has been opened. Look, your brain is still fucking squirming in front of me!" But when Jeno shouted, it became, "Avick, be careful!"

Hearing this shout, Yavik finally opened his eyes. But the next moment, the severe pain changed his face and he screamed. The man next to him smiled strangely, grabbed his five-finger claws directly into Yavik's head, and took out the hot brain tissue and sent it to his mouth. Yavik finally didn't have to scream, because his head turned into food in other people's mouths.

Jeno roared and touched the machine gun next to him and was about to shoot. But he found that the machine gun weighed more than a thousand pounds and remained motionless. Dingqing looked at it, but another strange hand pressed on the machine gun. With Jeno, she only felt a pain in her chest, and there was a heartbreaking feeling. He looked down and was surprised to see a hand with sharp claws piercing his chest.

The neck hurts. In the afterglow of Jeno, a woman is lying on her shoulder and biting his neck tightly.

If Geno could turn around, he would see a tearer with his feet fixed on the outer wall of the sentry tower, and his upper body almost got into the sentry tower.

Listening to the sound of blood being pumped away, Geno struggled to take out one*. In a weak smile, he pulled out the safety bolt.

I'm sorry, sir, I'm afraid I can't take you to the red light district.

Jeno thought so, and then a dazzling firelight filled his eyes.

With a roar, the sentry tower where Geno was located almost exploded into the sky, from a huge fireball. The explosion made Green quickly look in the direction of the sentry tower, and saw a tall figure rushing to the defense line like a tank under the glow of the flames.

A butcher held a hammer made of metal pipes and irregular iron blocks in his hand, and it ran in the direction of the defense line. The butcher took ten meters, and every foot fell must leave a clear footprint on the ground. On the blown sentry tower, the giant hit the barbed wire fiercely. The warhammer raised a circle and smashed heavily into the already energized high-voltage grid.

The butcher's terrible defense suffered an AC attack of 100,000 volts, but it still easily broke the power grid with a war hammer and ripped a break in Remt's thought-strong defense line.

Almost at the same time when he saw the butcher, Green roared, his whole body muscles bulged, and his bones crackled. In an instant, Green almost rose a circle, and even his coat was torn by swollen muscles. Revealing his scarred upper body, Green rushed to the butcher.

"Enemy attack!"

Green roared while running. But without his warning, the sudden explosion of the sentry tower is already the best alarm. So a moment later, there was a harsh beep, and the alarm sounded above Remt.

Green activated his fifth-level strength and defense and rushed to the butcher for the first time. The butcher felt his fierce murder and momentum, and roared unwillingly to show weakness, and faced Green without retreating.

The two giants collided in front of the defense line, and violent shock waves vented from their feet, bringing countless dust. The ground crackled into fine cracks and extended to ten meters away. The shock wave of the collision almost made Green and the butcher float in the air and soared about 10 centimeters before landing again.

Green roared and punched the butcher's mask. The simple iron mask was immediately deformed and broken in the metal branches, making Green's iron fist deeply fall into the butcher's face. At that moment, the fracture sounded from under the mask.

The butcher roared and retreated, but the hammer waved out and fell empty. Green, who made a side slide in time, roared and rushed up. He hit the butcher's abdomen and grabbed his waist with both hands and pushed the butcher from the defense line into the wild like a bulldozer.

The butcher tried his best to stand firm, but his feet ploughed out two ravines on the ground in vain.

After charging straight for nearly 100 meters with the butcher, Green shouted and raised the giant alive.

For a moment, Green saw the scene in front of him.

Countless living corpses surged past him like a tide. Both Green's power and the butcher's body smell made these ordinary living corpses afraid to approach. But they rushed to Remte one after another, and there was a fierce offensive and defensive battle on the defense line. Although the defense line opened a gap for the butcher, the gap had been filled by more than a dozen soldiers with fierce fire.

The high-voltage grid is still at work, turning every approaching living corpse into a barbecue. On the forested sentry tower, the roar of heavy machine guns resounded through the night sky. Under the dense fire, countless living corpses turned into real corpses.

The number of living corpses is endless, and they use corpses to overwhelm the power grid. The flexible figure back and forth on the sentry tower made the sound of heavy machine guns hoarse. That's the tearer. These fast living corpse mutants have become the most terrible killers, disintegrate and expand the gaps in the line of defense!

"Damn!" Green roared and pulled the butcher down with both hands. At the same time, his right leg and knee were at the top, and the butcher's landing point was just at the interruption of his spine.

With a click, the butcher's spine was centered and broken. Green threw it on the ground and rode it savagely on the butcher. He pressed the butcher's hand tightly with his legs, followed by his hands around the butcher's head and suddenly turned aside. Whether the butcher is willing or not, with the separation of head and body, no matter how strong its vitality is, it can't make the body get up again.

Throw away the butcher's head, Green exhaled, then roared and waved his fists, turning a living corpse that only passed by him into a real corpse. But after all, there is only one person, and at best he can only splash a wave in the tide of living corpses, and his role is very limited. But Green can't care about this. Every time he kills a living corpse, the pressure on the defense line will be one point less.

For a moment, there were at least hundreds of bodies lying at Green's feet. And the living corpses also learned to be smart. They bypassed Green far away and made him useless. When Green turned around to rush back to the defense line, there was a vicious sound behind him.

He suddenly moved away, and a hand axe swept past the previous position, splitting an unlucky living corpse nearby in half. Green turned around and saw the army of living corpses separated on both sides, followed by a tall figure appearing in front of Green.

Another butcher!

Green spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm and took out two alloy machetes on his back. Skillfully wielding the knife, Green was about to rush up, but suddenly there was a pain behind his back. Green couldn't think about it, so he cut the machete backhand. The feeling of touching the physical object came from the two knives, followed by the sharp friction sound and the big spark.

Under the spark, a thin face was smiling at Green. Green didn't expect that it was a tearer who attacked him. The shape of the tearer is very close to that of ordinary living corpses. It must be mixed with ordinary living corpses and suddenly took action when its attention was attracted by the butcher.

Behind him came the butcher's roar. As the earth shook, the butcher and the tearer attacked Green one after another. Under the night, the knife is as light as electricity, and like a lonely dancer in the wilderness, jumping out a dance step full of the smell of death.

When Green fought against the butcher and the tearers, Brian woke up to his daughter's scream. The accountant opened his eyes and saw his wife Jenny's frightened face and heard the roar of the machine gun outside the window.

"What's going on?" Brian put on his clothes in a hurry.

"I don't know. It seems that we have been attacked." Jenny ran out of the bedroom and brought her daughter over.

After dressing up, Brian held his baby daughter in his wife's hand, and then pulled Jenny and said, "Go quickly. It's not safe here."

When a family of three ran through the house, they found that the world outside the house was simply a mess. The neighbors in the building rushed to the elevator in panic, but the elevator could not accommodate so many people, so a rough man drove other citizens with his fists to make enough space.

"Go through the safe passage!"

Brian shouted at his wife. Obviously, the elevator could not sit down. The fastest way now is naturally to leave through a safe passage. So their family ran to the safe passage with several neighbors next to them. Unlike the messy corridor, the safe passage was quite quiet. The dim yellow light lit up the stairs of the passage. Brian felt a little relieved. He held his daughter and ran down the stairs with his wife and others.

When he came to the third floor, he saw that the exit was in sight. The accountant was a little happy and moved a little faster. But at this time, the exit door downstairs was hit hard and made a loud noise. Then there were people's heads, and several figures came out.

"It's not safe up there, man. Let's go." Crane shouted and accelerated his pace.

His voice became the attention of several people under the corridor, so these people raised their heads one after another, revealing their red eyes and broken faces.

Little Fanny suddenly screamed: "Dad, Dad, what kind of monsters are they?"

A drop of cold sweat slipped from Brian's forehead, and he shouted in a trembling voice, "Go back, run back!" They are living corpses!"
