Chapter 59: The tide of corpses is currently busy with involution
Qiao Shasha only had one thought in her mind:
Bad dish!
There is no way such a strange coincidence can exist in the world. This is definitely an organized and premeditated encirclement...
What's the reason?
Could it be that the "population" of zombies was reduced to less than half as a stress response?
Qiao Shasha didn't even dare to think deeply about how the zombies did it, not because those things touched her blind spot of knowledge, but...
If the walking zombies can grow from flesh-hungry humanoid beasts to a level similar to group intelligence in just twenty days, then if this process continues, how long will it take for them to learn more sophisticated cooperative hunting? How long will it take to be able to
Control basic physiological desires? How long does it take to master the tools again? How long does it take to regain the language?
These ideas are baseless and seem very absurd, but they just linger in Qiao Shasha’s mind——
After all, the zombie’s head is still a real human brain!
Then there may be such a dialogue method in the near future:
"We are clearly, at least once, human beings. Why do you call us zombies? I will sue you for racial discrimination! We demand equal rights!"
Qiao Shasha's face turned pale.
"What's wrong with you?" Li Cang asked.
I am trying to conquer myself and even conquer the entire human race...
"No..." Qiao Shasha rubbed her brows feebly, "Suddenly I felt a little tired."
As the corpses advanced toward the center of the city's ruins, the originally sparse net began to shrink.
This is different from the fourth wave when they actively made noise to attract living zombies. At that time, the number of walking zombies was only 1,975. Even if most of them escaped in the end, the original number of walking zombies would never exceed 5,000.
.
But now, the bustle outside is comparable to that of a train station during the Spring Festival travel rush, and is only much more than they expected.
After shrinking to form an impenetrable ring, the advancing speed of the zombies increases exponentially, and they can reach here in less than half an hour.
And before that...
After the three of them returned downstairs, they faced this scene:
"Let us in!"
"The walking zombies, the walking zombies have become a zombie tide!"
"Please, for the sake of everyone living in the same city, we might have been neighbors before..."
"I don't want to die, I don't want..."
Li Cang was shocked. Where could there be so many people?
Except for some wooden, iron, and ancient horse-like obstacles covered with sharp thorns on the periphery of the embankment and truck circle, as far as the eye can see, they are all people, all survivors...
The transportation they used to escape here, including cars, motorcycles, electric vehicles, bicycles, skateboards, etc., blocked the back, and the road for hundreds of meters was covered with these messy things.
The hundreds of people from the "Ghost Fire Youth League" who were guarding the embankment were in a state of confusion, their weapons pointed outwards, and there was no movement for a long time.
They thought that most of the survivors lived in this commercial building, but it turned out...
The number of people currently blocked outside the embankment is at least a thousand and may even reach two thousand, which is several times their number!
The putrid smell of zombies a few kilometers away lingered in their nostrils, reminding all the survivors, making them more and more agitated. Some of them had already tried to climb over obstacles such as horses and run into the building behind the embankment.
The building is in a hurry.
"Get out! If you move again, I'll be rude!"
"When I asked you to join us to deal with the walking zombies, we looked like we were looking at idiots. Now you want us to protect you. Bah, go ahead and have your nightmares!"
"Where's your face? You guys are really awesome..."
Theoretically speaking, it seems unrealistic for a few hundred people to stop one or two thousand people from doing anything, but what's ridiculous is that they were stopped.
It cannot be said that the survival philosophies of both parties are similar, but they can only be said to be completely opposite.
A large number of these people have been hiding in the ruins for months and have never even faced off against a 90-year-old walking corpse. They live like mice.
Let’s talk about the Will-O-Wisp Youth League. Jian Tian’er rode a motorcycle and tried every means to torment himself and the zombies. Who hasn’t had a few ounces of blood spattered on their hands?
In fact, there is a gap between the two sides of a fan who rushes through the home court with an eagle——
A whole cent!
How big is this?
There are so many people there, uh, so many people talk...
The vast majority of people did not dare to do anything anymore, and acted out a picture of all living beings across the defensive circle:
"Why don't you tell us how many innocent people like you have died because of you?"
"That's right, you are obviously the most ruthless in searching for resources. You have tried every means to get any good things..."
"What else can we do? We are just a group of old, weak, sick and defenseless ordinary people!"
"It's over...we're dead..."
"We're going to die together! The zombie wave will rush up in less than 10 minutes. There are only a few hundred of you. If you leave us, will you hold your head?"
"It's too late, come with me and charge, they really dare to kill people!"
"Let us go in, we can definitely hold such a high dam together!"
Although the embankment is a circle, there are other buildings on the left and right sides of the commercial building, and only the main entrance can be accessed in one direction.
As the tide of corpses approached, the crowd gathered became increasingly frightened and excited.
A particularly burly man stood out from the crowd. Compared with the disheveled people around him, his face could even be described as glowing red.
The strong man took advantage of the unpreparedness of the people above the embankment, rushed up in twos and twos, and violently pushed away the two closest people.
Then he raised his arms like a hero,
"Don't talk nonsense to them. Let's all rush in together. We'll be safe if we rush in!"
The crowd burst out into cheers or something, and chose to follow suit.
The horses were pushed away, the barbed wire fence covered with thorns was trampled down, and the raging crowd tore a hole in the defensive circle.
The young man who was pushed away still wanted to stop him, but a group of guys with red eyes pushed and shoved him, knocking him staggering, and he fell down the embankment. By chance, he hit the crowd outside.
Pushed to the bottom of the embankment and pushed back on the horse, a sharpened triangular iron was passed through his chest.
The young man vomited a large mouthful of blood from his mouth, his pupils were dilated and his vitality was rapidly draining away, and he could not rest in peace.
"It's over..." Qiao Shasha closed her eyes in pain.
The people on the building side went crazy at that time. They rushed towards the gap with weapons such as heavy and spiked maces and sharp machetes specially made and welded to deal with the walking dead.
In an instant, the bright red color spread like an infection, and the frightened cries and howls were heartbreaking.
"Let me go in and hide...ah, what are you doing..."
