Finally, after discussion, Lao Ma personally led the team and selected a dozen soldiers to follow them. These soldiers were all wearing light armor, carrying guns on their backs, and holding crossbows in their hands. According to the principle of survival in the apocalypse, unless there is an emergency, crossbows
It is more convenient, after all, it is silent and hidden.
Originally, this kind of charge into battle did not require him as a leader to lead the team. But Lao Ma still insisted on coming, because adding more towers was a major matter for the survivors, and the more leader he was, the more he had to be at the forefront.
In addition to the soldiers, Lao Ma also arranged for Xiao Man, the girl Zhang Lang rescued before, to follow them.
It is said that this little girl was born with extremely sensitive ears, and she has been deliberately trained since she was a child to be able to distinguish the enemy's position, distance and status from sounds and echoes. She is like a living radar. It is precisely because of this specialty that she often goes out to search for food with expedition teams.
This time, she was the first to discover the group of three-headed dogs, and when she was running away, she accidentally got separated from the group and was overtaken by a three-headed dog, which led to the scene Zhang Lang saw.
Zhang Lang once suspected that she was a surviving alien, but he was told that this girl had undergone special testing, which proved that it was just a stunt, not a real superpower. It is amazing to be able to connect stunts to this level...
Zhang Lang made some calculations and found that the water left behind was enough for Xiaoya to eat for at least five days. He could stay here for a few more days before going back to help the survivors first.
After preparations, everyone rested for a night. Early the next morning, the group finally arrived at the predetermined location and prepared to work.
Now in front of Zhang Lang is a sealed gate. The gate is made of solid wood wrapped with iron sheets and studded with nails. This side of the door is covered with sandbags and piles of bricks and stones. Looking at the thick dust on it, it is obvious that
It has not been opened for a long time.
On the other side of this gate are the towers that have not yet belonged to the survivors. When the city wall was originally built, there were gates on the bottom floor of each tower and on both sides of the tunnel leading to the city wall. This thing could effectively prevent the enemy from occupying the entire city wall and buy time.
At the end of the world, when Lao Ma led people to escape into the city wall, he sealed the gates at both ends of the city wall to make the passages within the wall relatively closed to prevent monsters hidden within the city wall from invading the survivors' area.
"Behind here is the first tower we want to capture!" Lao Ma introduced:
"After opening, the space inside will be relatively spacious. There are three floors up to the top. There is also a gate on the other side of the tower, which should be closed normally. Our task is to clear this tower first! Before that, we need to move
Open the roadblocks... They haven't been cleared since they were sealed back then. Please try to be gentle when you start, so as not to alert the monsters on the other side. It's not good to be attacked as soon as you open the door..."
While he was speaking, a huge boulder rolled past him, clanked on the ground several times, and finally stopped.
"Eh?" Such a big stone, at least two to three hundred kilograms, how on earth...
Before I could react, I saw sandbags flying by and stones rolling out. In a moment, the gate was cleared, and no one was hit by the debris thrown out. It was very stable!
"This is..." Lao Ma was shocked. These were not garbage bags with cotton covers. These were real stones and sandbags! The small one weighed one to two hundred kilograms, and the big one might exceed five hundred kilograms.
How on earth...
Everyone was also surprised. They saw Zhang Lang standing in front of the gate and turned around to ask them: "Does this thing have a mechanism? Will it be damaged if it is moved directly?"
"Just move it..." Lao Ma felt that he was a little speechless: "It won't be damaged if you lift it directly, but the gate weighs more than two thousand kilograms, and there are slots on the ground. I'm afraid if you have to lift it..."
Before he finished speaking, there was only a rattling sound, and Zhang Lang dragged the gate up with one hand, as if it was not a thousand-pound gate, but a large piece of corrugated cardboard...
"How is this possible? The lower edge of the gate is inserted into a slot on the ground. There is no way to start. How did he..."
Lao Ma looked at the ground in shock and found that there was an obvious chip on the edge of the slot. The chip seemed to be in the shape of a finger...
But at this moment, Xiaoman suddenly reminded: "Be careful, there is something behind the gate, speed..."
Before she finished speaking, Zhang Lang's free hand suddenly stretched out, and with a snap, he caught a monster, and others didn't even see how it appeared...
"...very fast..." At this time, Xiaoman finally said the second half of his sentence...
The thing in Zhang Lang's hand struggled fiercely. He frowned, used his hands hard, and with a click, he crushed the thing to death and threw it to the ground.
Everyone came closer to take a closer look and found that it was a small animal that resembled a hairless rabbit, but was about the size of a wolfdog. The ears were very long, and there were two sharp claws at the end. The face was somewhat long and narrow, and the long incisors protruded from the mouth.
, is extremely sharp and does not look like it is used for eating grass. Its two strong hind legs are still twitching with nerve reflexes, which is enough to provide powerful speed.
It is conceivable that such an animal rushes up quickly. The two hooks on its ears are like the blades of a sickle and can cut a person's arteries in an instant! In the dimly lit passage, you can't even react!
Zhang Lang raised his hand and shot an arrow. There was flashing magic on the arrow. After it was shot, it immediately illuminated the dark bottom floor of the tower. Through the door held up by Zhang Lang, everyone saw that there were more than a dozen more people behind the door.
This kind of animal is curled up and ready to go. It is probably because it was frightened by Zhang Lang's killer just now, so it has not jumped over...
"This is the first batch of monsters we need to eliminate!" Lao Ma raised his hand and ordered: "Shoot!"
Suddenly, all the soldiers drew their bows and shot arrows, one after another covering the dangerous rabbit monsters. However, these monsters were agile and dodge immediately. Only three of them were actually hit by arrows, two of which were shot to death by Zhang Lang...
His crossbow has two crossbow arms and can shoot two crossbow arrows continuously!
"These cunning things!" Lao Ma gritted his teeth: "Don't rush in, hurry up, throw the incendiary bottles and oil barrels in, the main body of the tower is made of stone, it is not afraid of burning, first clear and occupy the first floor..."
"No need to bother..." Zhang Lang stepped into the tower, said "Wait a moment", and closed the gate from the inside.
"Wait..." It was too late for Lao Ma to stop him. With a bang, the gate fell, and then a dull noise came from behind the door.
"He's fighting..."
Xiao Man closed his eyes, and his two braids trembled slightly:
"Fighting that rabbit monster... Hey, he went up to the second floor... There was movement on the second floor, something bigger was there... Hey? The battle doesn't seem to be more intense... He went up... to the third floor!"
