Chapter 577 Coexist With The City
Chapter 577 Coexist With The City
Facing the zombies, the defensive battle was naturally different from the traditional defensive battle.
Zombies don\'t carry stairs up walls and shoot arrows at them, but they are numerous and don\'t know what life or death is.
Norsack\'s assassination left Liu Jun, who was also a Heavenly Fate Sectlord, uncertain about his life and death. This made him extremely angry. Starry Night commanded the zombie army to Shenshu City. On the first day of the zombie siege, Shenshu City was in danger. The skeletons and zombies that could climb the walls posed a great threat to the soldiers guarding the city. Fortunately, Dong Shanhe, Qin Xiaoyan and the others rushed back to the city at the critical moment.
The reason why Dong Shanhe was able to run back to the city first was because the direction in which he split the zombies wasn\'t far from Shenshu City. Dong Shanhe rushed out of the first wave of zombies and found that the group of dead soldiers he had protected were all dead. He began to think of a way to escape and met Ye Liangchen and a few beast tamers on his way back to the city.
Qin Xiaoyan and the others hid in the tunnel for an entire night. They didn\'t come out of the tunnel entrance until everyone\'s poisoned state was relieved. Then, they fought all the way, avoiding the larger group of corpses and returning to Shenshu City. Before these people could rest, they rushed to the north wall with the soldiers to increase the number of soldiers, allowing Shenshu City to temporarily escape from the crisis.
In the next few days, the soldiers and mutants took turns to rest. The civilians in the city also began to help defend the city together. On the city walls in the east, west, and south directions, there were only a total of one thousand guards left. The rest of them all gathered on the north wall and faced the continuous tide of corpses.
Under the condition of relying solely on cold weapons, it was already a miracle that the soldiers and civilians of Shenshu City were able to defend the city for six full days under the impact of the Corpse Tide. So when Qin An ran around the city wall, he was shocked by what he saw.
From the Throwing Tower, which was a hundred meters high, to the Saber Hand Fortress, which was eighty meters high, to the fifty meters high city wall, the corridors were filled with people!
Half of the soldiers in the corridor were already asleep, while the other half were old, weak, women, and children. They were constantly transporting all kinds of items to the hands of the city guards on the upper two floors.
Occasionally, a sergeant would wake up from the corridor, then put a spoonful of rice porridge that was almost invisible in the open-air cauldron placed on one side and drank it in large mouthfuls. Then, he raised his saber and rushed to the second floor of the Bladesman Fortress. Some of the soldiers guarding the city would faint from exhaustion. The old, weak, women and children in charge of logistics would carry them to the corridor and feed them water for treatment. Those soldiers who were located upstairs were not so lucky. Many soldiers fell into the zombies at the entrance of Dao City after fainting due to exhaustion.
Qin An had to admit that Dong Junwei was the most outstanding city lord he had ever seen in the apocalypse. Otherwise, these soldiers and civilians would not have given up on resisting at such a critical moment. The trust in the leader made these people feel that they still had hope and a future, so they were able to persevere.
Qin An also saw Chen Ci, Gong Xue and other mutants from Western Tibet in the crowd. They also saw Ye Tao, Lan Miao, Lin Yang, Mei Zijun, and Liu Ying. They also saw Jesse, Wang Hui, Wang Yunzhi, Liu Tian, and Zhou Jiawei.
Ai, it seems that only these mutants have a chance to survive after leaving the protection of the city wall in the apocalypse!
However, these mutants seemed to have reached their limits, Their parasitic mutated beasts were no longer able to summon their bodies. They were only guarding behind the Saber Hand Fortress with their long sabers. Like the other soldiers guarding the city, they mechanically chopped down the zombies that climbed up. The TC virus in their bodies was so tired that they entered a dormant state. These mutated beasts weren\'t much stronger than ordinary humans.
While helping defend the city, Qin An moved around and finally saw Liu Ru.
This beautiful woman was standing alone behind a Saber Hand Fortress, with a large bamboo basket placed beside her, and the bamboo basket contained her own fleshly body!
Qin An felt a burst of excitement in his heart. He felt that this mother-in-law was destined to take good care of him and did not suffer any damage.
However, wasn\'t she originally using an iron box to store herself? Why is it this bamboo basket?
Qin An looked at Liu Ru again and found that she was holding a sledgehammer in her hand.
This hammer is too big! Its hammer hilt was three meters long, but its hammer head was two meters long! Looks like the estimated weight is less than 1,000 jin, or 800.
Liu Ru held the hammer in both hands and smashed all the zombies that climbed up into meat sauce. She looked very valiant and valiant.
This hammer... can\'t be a change from Nurse Rong, right? Qin An guessed.
What Qin An was thinking was actually the truth.
Naturally, Nurse Rong and Liu Ru also participated in the city protection battle. After a few days, Nurse Rong was extremely tired. She used her last bit of strength to turn into this hammer. After that, she put her spiritual energy into a state of complete dormancy. She needed some time to rest.
The Sword God in Liu Ru\'s body was a Transcendent Body. This gave Liu Ru extremely strong strength and endurance. Thus, although her spirit was very tired, she could still naturally use her special ability of strength.
Qin An sighed in his heart. He didn\'t go forward. He was a wolf now, so he had no way to communicate with Liu Ru.
Wait until you find an opportunity. Have Xiaoyan look for Gong Xue and see if she can get herself back to her original body.
Now was obviously not the time, because the zombies at the gates were attacking too ferociously! Moreover, judging from Gong Xue\'s appearance, she was obviously extremely tired. Even if she could return to her original body, she would still need to rest.
Just like that, Qin An continued to run back and forth on the pontoon bridge behind the Bladesman Fortress, and then quickly rushed forward to support them after seeing which side had been ambushed by the zombies or was in more danger.
Thousands of soldiers on the city wall died during the entire night, while tens of thousands of zombies died. All of the zombies were piled up under the city wall, making the Yangtze River Delta nearly ten meters taller. This meant that the zombies would reach the second floor of the Bladesman Fortress more easily and faster.
All the guards on the city wall were exhausted.
The soldiers who had rested for a few hours on the corridor began to wake up. Most of them rushed to the second floor of Bladesman Fortress without even eating breakfast to replace the soldiers guarding the city.
The children in the city had already woken up. They were gathering edible wild vegetables in every corner of the city, digging up earthworms, catching rats, and cleaning up grass roots. All of this will be the next meal for the entire city.
Qin An finally saw City Lord Dong Junwei climb up the city wall.
There was a sad news that Qin An had heard from the logistical staff on the corridor when it was almost dawn. Qin Yuanshan, the deputy city lord in the city, had died in the line of duty. While he was personally commanding the second floor of the Bladesman Fortress, a D2 jumping zombie broke through its defenses and rushed forward, biting him.
Although the nearest mutant, Dong Shanhe, used his fastest speed to kill the D2 Jumping Zombie, Qin Yuanshan still turned into a corpse and was killed by Dong Shanhe with tears in his eyes.
This happened during the day yesterday. Dong Junwei and Qin Yuanshan were old comrades-in-arms for many years. When they heard that Qin Yuanshan had passed away, they immediately fainted and their bodies collapsed. Only then did they recover!
His hair had turned white overnight, but he looked fine now. His eyebrows suddenly stood up with dignity. He knew that as the lord of a city, he couldn\'t let himself really fall.
Looking at the zombie corpses piling up higher and higher below the city wall, Dong Junwei said to the deputy general beside him, "We won\'t be able to defend for long! We have to find a way to attract the zombies to other places! Otherwise, when the height of the zombie corpses exceeds the height of the city wall, we can only be devoured!"
The deputy general sighed and said,
"These zombies are under Northak\'s command! And they are besieging the city one after another, we can\'t attract them away!
Previously, the mutants from the Tibetan West Base had tried to assassinate Norsak again, but he was already on guard. Normal zombies jumped up the D1 zombie. On top of the D1 zombie was Northak\'s wooden bed. Around him, there were D2 and D3 jumping zombies protecting him! It was impossible to attack him from underground.
The captain named Gong Xue said that she still had a special ability that she hadn\'t used, but this ability was very special. If she wanted to use it, she had to let her blood touch Northak\'s head! Ai, I don\'t know what kind of strange ability it is! However, under Northak\'s strict arrangements, not to mention his head, even his toes wouldn\'t be able to touch him. "
Hearing this, Dong Junwei\'s face turned pale. He sighed and said, "Can we escape from the city now?"
The deputy general smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"There are a lot of zombies around Shenshu City, but because of the existence of the divine tree, they are far away from here and gathered dozens of kilometers away. And the hundreds of thousands of zombies that were lured away by our dead are still wandering around not far from us, and Shenshu City is still surrounded by them!
We\'ve already studied the route before. If the mutants want to take a few people with them, then there\'s no problem. However, it was probably impossible to bring tens of thousands of people out of the city and reach a safe zone. Isn\'t that what we came to at the pre-war conference? "
Dong Junwei\'s expression didn\'t change much, but his body was trembling slightly.
"Let\'s go up and take a look!"
With that said, Dong Junwei, accompanied by the deputy general\'s protection, climbed onto the second floor of the Bladesman Fortress.
At this time, most of the soldiers guarding the city had been replaced. Even Qin Xiaoyan, Gong Xueliuru, and the others had gone down to rest. They were already too tired to continue fighting.
In the daytime, the zombies\' attacks seemed to have slowed down a bit, and Northak also needed to rest. Although the zombies would continue to attack the city while he was resting, it was far from the time he personally guarded the madness when he was awake at night.
Qin An did not continue to stay on the city wall. He was also very tired! There were seven or eight hundred zombies killed by him in one night, and most of them were D1 jumping zombies. He had traveled to and from the six-kilometer-long city wall countless times. It was easy to imagine just how much exercise he had.
Walking together with Qin Xiaoyan, they finally got off the city wall and arrived in front of a few yurts that had just been erected not far from the city wall.
These yurts were specially built for mutants from Western Tibet. Although they could not be taken care of in food, they were better than ordinary people in terms of living.
Gong Xue, Liu Ru and the others lived here.
Qin An said to Qin Xiaoyan in her heart, "When Gong Xue wakes up from her sleep, she must think of a way to get my soul back to its original body!"
