Chapter 983: Chapter 983: The First Corpse Tide
Inside the B City base, Wei Yinghao and the management team behind him, including people from the Research Department, were observing the Wood Element Ability Users recruited in the base as they attempted to nurture the Snow Spirit Flower.
Wei Wei was also among them, and a layer of sweat appeared on his forehead, showing that he had been nurturing for a while, but the Snow Spirit Flower showed no signs of branching out.
"This is really too difficult..."
A Wood Element Ability User couldnât help shaking his head and said.
"Yes, Iâve been at it for two days now... not a trace of progress."
Another Wood Element Ability User beside him commented.
"I heard that Wood Element Ability Users in the S City base can nurture a flower in one day."
Hearing the discussions behind him, Wei Wei smiled, turned his head, and said, "Weâve only just started, everyone shouldnât rush. Weâll succeed, slowly but surely."
The few Wood Element Ability Users who knew Wei Weiâs identity blushed a bit, but they were aware that the Wei Family usually mingled well with everyone in the base, never putting on airs, so they started chatting with Wei Wei.
"When the Heart Talk Team comes back in a couple of days, letâs get Captain Su Jin to give us a lecture. Sheâs an expert at nurturing these."
Wei Wei said.
"Really? Thatâs great, Uncle Wei, donât worry, we will definitely work hard."
A Wood Element Ability User guaranteed.
Wei Yinghao smiled as he watched everyone getting along harmoniously. Finally, Wei Wei had something to do and wouldnât be making a mess of dirt at home every day.
"Turns out Dr. Tang and the others really succeeded. They were just saying they were looking for the origin of the zombie virus, and now theyâve even found a way to detoxify the zombie virus. Itâs truly surprising."
Lin Yu, the Chief of the Research Department, said.
"Yes, and itâs worth all that weâve invested in it."
Wei Yinghao replied.
At this moment, Cui Xing at the gate of B City base seemed to have caught an unusual scent. The already hot weather made the smell even stronger.
Cui Xingâs sense of smell had always been sharp, and after the evolution of Special Abilities in the Apocalypse, he was often jokingly called "the dog nose" by his team behind his back.
"Do any of you smell something? A fishy smell?"
Cui Xing asked Xiao Zhang beside him.
"No, Captain, I donât smell anything."
At this moment, how could there be a fishy smell? Xiao Zhang thought dismissively, believing Captain Cui was just having another episode of old problems.
"Somethingâs off, Iâm going up to have a look."
Cui Xing had great confidence in his sense of smell and could often even detect when someone was bitten and about to mutate.
"Itâs fine, Captain, the Heart Talk Team already cleared the zombies outside the fence the day before, and didnât we just checked this morning?"
Xiao Zhang said, but by now, Cui Xing had already run inside the gate.
Thereâs a regulation on the B City baseâs walls to observe the distant situation with a special telescope every two hours. Cui Xing checked the record board; it had been an hour since the last observation.
"Iâll take a look at the situation."
Cui Xing said to the staff member Chen Yuan nearby.
"Okay, Captain Cui."
Chen Yuan indicated that Cui Xing could enter the observation post by himself.
Moments later, Chen Yuan saw Cui Xing stepping out of the observation post with a shocked expression, his lips trembling slightly, his eyes staring straight ahead.
"Whatâs wrong, Captain Cui?"
Chen Yuan couldnât help but stand up, was there something happening?
"Zo... zombie tide is coming, hurry! Notify the base!"
Cui Xingâs mind was filled with the image of the zombie tide rushing like the sea. This wasnât a zombie horde; it was an endless zombie tide!
"What?!"
Chen Yuan couldnât believe it and went into the observation post. Coming out, like Cui Xing, he too had a shocked expression and ran straight down.
The base must be notified immediately!
The base alarm suddenly rang out, changing the expression on Wei Yinghaoâs face. The alarm in their base had three levels, and this was the highest, Level One. Could it be something outside?!!!
"Uncle! A zombie tide is coming!"
Wei Junhao rushed into the nurturing site, having just been informed by people at the baseâs gate while he was present.
Zombie tide?!
Everyone present showed a serious expression; the B City base had never experienced a zombie tide before.
This might sound like a favorable situation, but it also meant they had no experience dealing with a zombie tide.
Wei Yinghao had already rushed out. Even without experience, it was urgent to notify all departments to start preparations immediately.
"Uncle, let me take charge of this, okay?"
Wei Junhao volunteered. Uncle and the others had no experience, but he had witnessed and participated in two zombie tides at S City base, and he was confident he could think more comprehensively.
"Can you do it, Junhao?"
Wei Yinghao hesitated and asked.
"I can do it!"
Wei Junhao answered seriously.
"Alright."
Wei Yinghao knew that since Wei Junhao returned after Ou Wenxuanâs death, he had changed a lot.
He actively participated in base affairs every day, and most importantly, Wei Junhao managed relationships with people from various departments and levels extremely well.
Soon, Wei Junhao was appointed as the temporary commander for this zombie tide event. The previously panicked and disorderly management hall became calm due to Wei Junhaoâs concise and direct arrangements.
"I will later go to the wall to continue overseeing weapon deployment. Resisting the zombie tide must involve the entire base, no one can be left behind! Apart from the baseâs official guards, Captain Luo Hongyi will be responsible for assembling Special Ability Users from various affiliations, and the Human Resources Department must assist with full effort..."
Wei Yinghao, standing nearby, was slightly surprised. It was the first time he saw Wei Junhao being so serious, and his arrangements were orderly, not leaving anyone feeling overwhelmed.
It seemed he could rest assured and attend to his tasks.
However, things were not as simple as everyone thought. Soon, everyone on the wall noticed that the zombie tide, which had reached the wall, seemed to be under command!
Dozens of shells were fired into the zombie tide, and the effect was indeed impressive, instantly blowing hundreds to thousands of zombies into bits. However, during the second round, some zombies voluntarily jumped into the air, sacrificing themselves, causing the shells to explode before they even landed!
The second round of shells ended up as all duds!
Wei Junhao clenched his fists. He looked at the densely packed zombie tide below with a grave expression. Had that intelligent zombie arrived?
But where on earth was it hiding?!
"The attacks mustnât stop, or theyâll counterattack!"
Wei Junhao shouted, his greatest worry now was the base wall. If that zombie targeted this point, then their base would be in danger!
Meanwhile, Su Jin and Lu Haoâs group walked through the corpse-free streets of Dead City C, the unusual stillness of the city making everyone frown.
"Oh no, the B City base."
Lu Hao said.
