MTL - The Villainess Is Always Pretending to Be the Virgin Mary-Chapter 30
That night...it was her.
He didn't trance for too long, when he felt the steady stream of supernatural energy coming from his palm, Gu Chi realized that his excitement just now was just self-indulgence.
He silently let go of Chi Ying's hand, feeling an unspeakable sense of loss for some reason.
Seeing that he didn't respond for a long time, Chi Ying thought it was because she didn't have enough abilities to transfer, so she worked harder to transfer the abilities.
"Enough." Gu Chi said softly.
But the hand holding Chi Ying still did not let go.
In his left palm, the already somewhat thin ice-blue ability suddenly recovered. The frost that had been stagnant spread to the other half of the safe zone again.
The supernatural being who had been observing the battle below from the top of the safe zone found that all the zombies stood still as if the pause button had been pressed.
He excitedly said: "Command! All the zombies below are still."
"I see." The female voice who spoke was cold.
"Commander, what is going on here?"
"It's someone sent by the headquarters. As far as I know, there is only one person who has ice abilities and can complete an attack of this scale."
The woman pinched the cigarette dangling from her mouth with her fingers, and her cold expression finally eased.
"The senior commander of that institute. Fortunately..."
She felt lucky to survive the catastrophe.
"Everyone, get rid of those guys who climbed up the wall first. Someone below will help us carry it." Xu Nian ordered.
She squeezed the cigarette case tightly in her hand, so that no one could see her fear.
She threw down the remaining half of the cigarette butt, and when the little spark hit the ladder made of zombies, it instantly burst into a strong flame. The carbonized zombie body peeled off the wall like a dirty scab.
The ability of the fire department, and it is the ability user of the fifth level peak.
Many of the attack openings on the bottom of the wall have been captured by zombies climbing up.
Xu Nian watched the blood of his companions drip from the attack ports, and then hit the puppets that were crazily climbing on the ground. There was a fiery fire in her eyes, and her hatred grew wildly.
Chief... it better not let itself find it.
after an hour.
The sound of gunfire that rang through the safe zone all day finally returned to calm at this moment. At a glance, apart from the piles of zombies and human corpses piled up under the iron wall, there is a vast expanse of white zombie ice sculptures.
"Captain..." Lu Yunfei held the communicator,
"Have you found it?" Gu Chi leaned in the corner and asked.
Using such a large amount of abilities at one time, even if he is already a seventh-level ability user, he can't bear it. He had to find a place to relax first.
"No. Not to mention zombies that can move freely, even zombies that have the characteristics of a leader have not been found."
"Although their bodies are covered with ice, the skin characteristics of the zombies are still obvious. I haven't found any zombies that don't have corpse spots."
"Well. What about the others?"
"I've asked, but there are none, and there are too many zombies, we can't find them all for a while." Lu Yunfei continued: "However, I have just contacted Xu Nian, the commander-in-chief of the safe zone, and she said that she will send someone out to help."
"Send someone to help?" Gu Chi frowned, "What reason?"
The headquarters didn't tell too many people about the zombie leader, and hoped that the less people would know, the better. He was afraid that the commander here would reveal the secrets of the headquarters because he trusted his subordinates.
"Don't worry about this, the commander-in-chief said that he wanted to collect zombie crystal nuclei to recover the power points consumed."
This is indeed a good way. The leader's crystal nucleus is different from other ordinary zombies. If the leader is really dead, they can also use the crystal nucleus to confirm their identity.
"Well, please let me know if you find anything."
After getting the answer, Gu Chi put down the communicator.
"Didn't you find it?" Chi Ying held a big knife exchanged from the mall, looked at the rows of frozen zombies waiting for her to chop, eager to try.
The last time I cut off the heads of those zombies, I felt a strange sense of relief, which was very relaxing.
"No."
Gu Chi sat on the ground, leaning against an old tree behind him, feeling a bad premonition in his heart.
It's okay if you find the leader, but if you can't find it... things will become troublesome.
They still had a long time to search, so Gu Chi called the other team members over first, and advanced into the safety zone.
"Commander Gu."
With a gun on his back, Xu Nian greeted them inside the gate. After seeing Gu Chi, she bowed slightly to show her gratitude.
As the commander-in-chief, Xu Nian has a completely different image from the inherent impression. Most of the time, she was dressed in a capable black suit, with a unique ruffian in her eyes.
She is not young, which adds a bit of mature charm to her whole person.
"I have sent someone to collect the crystal nucleus, you should rest in the safe zone first."
"Thank you."
"Didn't the car come over?" She wondered.
"Outside, some team members went to drive."
"The results of the search should come out soon, and we will know the answer soon."
She didn't say the rest of the sentence, but both of them knew it well.
Answers about the...boss.
Xu Nian brought Gu Chi and other team members to the emergency meeting room in No. 9 safety zone.
"All the zombies have been checked." She said in a serious tone, "No abnormal crystal nuclei were found."
"That is to say..." Song Shi frowned, "The leader is not among them?"
"Looking at the current situation, it is indeed the case." Xu Nian said with some headaches: "This is the situation I am most afraid of. The area outside the safe zone is too big, who can search every inch of land? From this point of view, Finding the leader is simply impossible."
"If this is the case, if it gathers zombies again in the future, without the support of the headquarters, we will be powerless to resist."
Gu Chi was silent for a moment.
"There is a question, why did it choose the No. 9 security zone?"
Xu Nian replied: "It's not hard to imagine. The No. 9 security zone is just in the center surrounded by many urban areas, so it is easy to become the leader's target."
"This leads to another problem..." Gu Chi looked up at her, "The scope of the leader's message is limited, and the zombies besieging you come from all directions. Where do you think it attracts the zombies from? The number will increase." Is it the most?"
Xu Nian's face changed suddenly.
"You mean, inside the safe zone?"
"It could be nearby. But I think it's most likely inside the safe zone."
Whether it's Zhang Bin or Bai Qing, they all have one thing in common, that is extreme arrogance. They both like to mingle with humans... as if to prove that they are smarter than humans.
It is quite possible that this new leader has such characteristics.
"People who have entered the safe zone recently, have you registered their information?"
"Yes, but there are a lot of people entering the safe zone, I'm afraid..."
"In any case, first delineate the range of the leader."
"Understood, I will go to count."
Gu Chi lowered his eyes, and suddenly felt a nauseous feeling of helplessness.
They don't have any means to identify zombies at all...
The statisticians of the Ministry of Information listed all the personnel coming and going in the past two weeks.
After Xu Nian asked people to go back first, he frowned as he stared at the data.
"In the past two weeks, a total of 278 survivors have entered the headquarters, and only three of them can be ruled out as suspects."
"If I find all these 278 people, how can you find the leader?" She looked at Gu Chi quietly, as if she already knew the result.
If there was a way to identify the leader, the headquarters should have informed them long ago.
She sat on the chair and didn't make a sound for a long time.
"I can't, drive all these people out?"
It's useless to drive them out. At most, it will move the leader from under their noses and out of sight. If the leader wants to do something, their behavior is just deception.
"Huh..." Xu Nian smiled wryly, "The only remaining solution, you and I can't bear to do it..."
Chi Ying raised her head.
What's the only way?
Gu Chi clenched his hands tightly on his knees.
The only way... is to kill a thousand people by mistake. In order to ensure that the leader was killed, all the remaining two hundred or so suspects had to die.
With a sullen face, he fell into silence with Xu Nian who was opposite him.
doodle.
The communicator on the side rang.
Gu Chi reached out and picked it up to connect.
"Captain, there is something wrong here." It was Lu Yunfei's voice.
The voice from the communicator was very noisy, as if someone was howling around.
"Yunfei?" Gu Chi raised his eyebrows.
Lu Yunfei and Lin Xun went to drive their team's car in. The zombie group had been dealt with, so he couldn't think of anything else that could happen.
"Then what..." The voices of two people cursing suddenly came from Lu Yunfei's side, but they couldn't hear clearly.
"Bai Qing got into a fight with someone on the side of the road!"
The author has something to say:
Bai Qing: The walking leader detector is me!
