MTL - Darkness is Coming-Chapter 168 Yongzhi in desperation (Part 1)

  Yongzhi is the name of a small settlement in the gray area. It has no special meaning, just because the people inside live in the Yongzhi company.

Because Yongzhi is too close to the Black Territory, he may be attacked by zombies and mutants at any time, so there are not many people who dare to stay here. Most of them are corpse hunters passing by - often the ones with the most courage and the best equipment. A group of ordinary corpse hunters dare not easily enter and leave the black domain.

The useful facilities in the Yongzhi company building have been moved to the 6th floor. This is the Yongzhi settlement where dozens of people live. Of course, at least two-thirds of them are corpse hunters who may leave this place at any time. There are only less than ten people. He was a former employee of Yongzhi Company. After the disaster, he was stuck in this place. He didn't dare to leave easily because he was afraid of danger. With great luck, he hid for four or five months until the first group of corpse hunters found this place.

   After first encountering corpse hunters, the employees of Yongzhi Company established this small settlement, or corpse hunter hotel, with the help of zombie hunters. They blocked all the doors and windows on the first and second floors, and then nailed wooden boards. When they wanted to go out, they used ropes to climb down from the third floor. In this way, ordinary zombies can't get in at all, and there are several encounters with mutants that are close to danger.

After all, Yongzhi is different from other settlements. For example, in the settlements outside Xinyuanjiang City, most of the residents are incapable of fighting. Among the dozens of people in Yongzhi, all of them carry guns and cannons, and their strength is insufficient. It's not good to run in.

   "Awu, what are you thinking?" The question was a bald middle-aged man in his forties. He was squatting by the charcoal fire, roasting his frozen hands.

   This is Kong Wu's former boss. Now he is Kong Wu's subordinate, responsible for cleaning and maintaining a comfortable and tidy living environment for the corpse hunters. Unlike the meaning of the name "Kong Wu is powerful", Kong Wu is actually the kind of person who is good at using his brain more than his hands, so he can quickly adjust his mentality and find his own position when a disaster breaks out, and lead everyone to survive. Luck alone is not enough for this grey area to survive unharmed for so long.

"I'm thinking, should we leave here and go to Jiangxin Island or Xinyuanjiang." Kong Wu moved his stiff fingers, stood up on the seat, walked to the charcoal fire and squatted down, talking to the bald middle-aged man. People bake together.

"Leave here? The road is not peaceful, and even if you are lucky, everyone can reach Xinyuanjiang or Jiangxin Island safely. If you don't have a way to make a living, you will starve to death!" The middle-aged man kept rubbing his hands. "It's good to stay here, stay safe and secure, don't listen to what they say about the gray area, the black area, that's all nonsense."

The middle-aged man looked around, making sure that no corpse hunters around could hear him, and continued in a low voice: "They still call themselves corpse hunters, what are they doing in B grades and A grades, and what are the legendary S grades? Level, do you think this is a brainless person? Don't think too much, Ah Wu, you see we have been here for half a year, haven't we been fine all the time? It will be alright."

   If you didn't have these brains to hunt zombies, you would have entered the belly of zombies long ago. Without the supplies brought by these brains, you would have starved to death and frozen to death. Kong Wu said this in his heart, of course, he didn't say it, after all, he still had to maintain a good relationship with his own people.

"No, Lao Yan." Kong Wu never called Boss Yan since the first day of the disaster, "Being safe in the past doesn't mean it will be safe in the future, the situation will always change, how can I put it, I always feel that Something is not right. How long have you said that you haven't seen a large corpse tide? Where have all the zombies gone? It stands to reason that the survivors have all found settlements, and zombies and mutants can't find food. Shouldn't they run out to find food? ?"

   "Hey, what's there to think about, I didn't see a large corpse tide because most of the zombies were wiped out."

  Kong Wu shook his head slightly and stopped responding. Since the other party was so stubborn, why should he try to persuade him, it would not do any good anyway. No words were spoken, but Kong Wu continued to think in his heart.

Did the    Yuanjiao Society and Division 258 really kill all the zombies? It is unlikely. So far, the area occupied by green and blue on the map is far less than that of gray and black. Half a year ago, the population of Yuanjiang was several million, but now there are less than 300,000 people left. where did it go? Of course, it is to become zombies, or food for zombies.

   A zombie will become a mutant after eating dozens of people. If the mutant continues to eat, it will further evolve and mutate to enhance its own strength. Therefore, most of the people and corpses are swallowed by the mutant, and the mutant is hunted and exterminated by the zombie hunters. There seems to be no problem with this logic, and it is accepted by most people, but Kong Wu always feels that something is wrong, but he can't say what is wrong.

"Brother Wu, Brother Wu, it's not good!" A young woman in her mid-thirties who still had the same charm ran over and interrupted Kong Wu's train of thought by screaming. She was wearing a men's padded jacket and flat shoes. Only Kong Wu knew how good a figure she could see after stripping her clothes off.

  Kong Wu immediately stood up and asked, "What's wrong?"

   "Zombies! There are so many zombies! We are surrounded, and there are zombies everywhere!"

  Kong Wu snorted in his heart, walked quickly to the window, looked down, and there were dense crowds of zombies in all directions below!

   "Fuck! Where is the person on duty, did they eat shit?" Kong Wu cursed loudly, "Call me here!"

The two people on duty were so frightened that their faces turned pale, they walked to Kong Wu with a slap in the face, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed to beg for mercy without hesitation: "Brother Wu, Brother Wu, we were wrong, we just slept for a while, and really just slept. After a while, these zombies seemed to emerge from the ground, and suddenly they were everywhere, Brother Wu..."

  Kong Wu gritted his teeth so vigorously that he almost bleed from his back molars. He wished he could shoot these two idiots, but he couldn't. The entire Yongzhi Building was surrounded by zombies, and it was difficult to break out. He couldn't kill himself at this time unless he didn't want to go out alive.

"You two shut up! This matter..." Kong Wu wanted to say that this matter is not over with you, but then he thought, since he didn't plan to kill them, he shouldn't speak harshly, otherwise if they were afraid of punishment It's really stupid to stab in the back, so Kong Wu changed his words, "I can't blame you all for this matter, it's useless to talk about it now, quickly wake up the guests and discuss countermeasures, and there are still people in the distance. Zombies keep coming around, and if you don’t take the time to find a way to break through, I’m afraid you won’t be able to get out.”

   "Yes yes yes." The two on-duty officers kowtowed three times as if they had been granted amnesty, then rolled and ran out.
