Chapter 278 Escaped Taking advantage of the chaos in the shelter, Hao Zhou led his team to the east gate of Yin City. The entrance to the east gate of the city was blocked by an iron gate with a railing. Through the gap in the railing, the team saw a dense crowd of zombies on the other side of the iron gate. The zombies were immediately attracted by the smell of the players in the team and crowded toward the iron gate. The old rusty iron gate kept creaking, which made people worry that it would not be able to withstand the pressure of the zombies and collapse. The two brothers, Kun Ba and Kun Ta, put on their equipment and got ready for battle. Then, they turned around and looked at Hao Zhou. “Captain, what should we do?” Hao Zhou raised his binoculars and observed the inner part of Yin City for a moment, then quickly set up a plan. “They’re all ordinary zombies, so they’re not a big threat.” “I’ll set up explosives to make a hole and break through the iron gate. After that, Sister Li will activate the perception barrier. We’ll break into Yin City first.” “The density of the zombie horde inside the city is much smaller than outside. When the time comes, we’ll just kill our way in and force our way into the art gallery.” “Okay!” Hao Zhou’s team had been cooperating for a long time, and they had a good understanding of each other. “Help me cover for a while.” Hao Zhou took out an explosive pack from his backpack as he spoke. He was about to walk to the iron gate and plant the explosive pack. When the explosive blew up the iron gate, it would also get rid of the zombie horde. “To blow up the iron gate and the zombie horde, we need two sets of small explosives…” Hao Zhou muttered to himself as he walked forward, calculating in his mind. “Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!!!” He was distracted for a moment and several gusts of wind sounded in his ears. “Chi Chi Chi…” A few red shadows flew past him quickly. What the hell!!! Hao Zhou was shocked. He suddenly stopped in his tracks and looked over. Dozens of Lickers flitted past him and pounced toward the iron railings. They jumped high into the air and slashed their sharp claws across the air. Ordinary zombies couldn’t stop a high-level hunter like the Licker! The zombies were cut in half, and the rusty iron railings were cut into pieces by the sharp claws. The iron gate was instantly torn open. The Lickers immediately started killing the zombies before they even have time to break free from the iron gate. The strong smell of blood stimulated the players’ nostrils. In a short moment, the zombie horde was torn into pieces by the Lickers. In a few minutes, no zombies were found standing at the east entrance of the city. The Lickers carried out Fang Heng’s order faithfully. They continued to spread out into Yin City, looking for their next target. “This…” The scene before their eyes was too shocking and the depressing scene made Hao Zhou and the others momentarily at a loss. Slaughtered? Even though they had seen some prison soldiers controlling the Lickers in battle in the video before, now that they had witnessed it with their own eyes, the Lickers’ combat ability was much stronger than in the video! Sister Li was extremely alarmed. She was very sure that the Lickers that Fang Heng controlled were not ordinary! Their various attribute abilities had been greatly improved compared to ordinary Lickers! With these Lickers, it was only a matter of time before they cleared all the zombies in Yin City, let alone the ‘miscellaneous soldiers’ blocking the entrance! In that case… the plan that they had laid out previously seemed to be completely useless? Kun Ba and Kun Ta looked at each other, then turned their gazes to Hao Zhou at the same time. Hao Zhou also stood at the same spot with mixed feelings in his heart. How long had it been since they last met and Fang Heng’s strength had already risen to such a powerful level? During this period, his entire team had been fighting day and night! He believed that his strength had been completely transformed compared to a month ago. Even if he could not be compared to Fang Heng, the gap wouldn’t be too big But now that he’s aware of the Lickers’ ability… Hao Zhou felt that the strength of the entire team wasn’t enough! If he were to fight the Licker one-on-one right now, he would at most rely on the props to save his life. “Captain, shouldn’t our plan…” Seeing Hao Zhou freeze on the spot, Kun Ta walked up and patted his shoulder, using his mouth to signal the zombie horde that had already entered Yin City. “Okay.” Hao Zhou quickly adjusted his mood. Fang Heng was his teammate. The stronger his teammate was, the happier he should be. At least this mission was safe! “There’s a change of plan. We’ll follow the Lickers.” Hao Zhou took a deep breath and said excitedly, “Together, we’ll charge in!” (Hint: Your shelter has been attacked by a Tyrant. The shelter’s durability has decreased by 1,078. Please defend in time.] (Hint: Your shelter is under attack. Please defend and repair in time… Once the shelter’s durability is reduced to zero…) After leaving the shelter, Lope watched as the Tyrant madly swung its fist to punch the shelter. The veins on his forehead bulged. “Leader, what should we do?” “Are you idiots?!” Lope could not help but shout at the player who was using the wooden bow and arrows to deal with the Tyrant, “Are you going to use the wooden arrows to kill the Tyrant?” Seeing the confused player who stopped attacking with the wooden arrow, Lope was even angrier. “Trash! A bunch of trash!” “Forget about those Tyrants! Can you hold on?! Quickly load the valuable resources from the shelter into the vehicle!” The players finally reacted. “Retreat!” “Go! Hurry up and leave!” Lope gritted his teeth and stared at the two Tyrants who were close by. Ordinary arrows and even firearms could not cause fatal damage to them. Saving strength and reducing losses was the best solution. But why? Why did the Tyrant target their shelter? Lope could not figure this out. Fang Heng was hiding under a tree far away from the shelter. Fang Heng could not help but twitch his lips when he saw the player driving the truck out of the shelter. “Trying to escape?” Tyrant hadn’t even flattened the place yet and he was already escaping? He should have put up some resistance! This was boring Boring. Fang Heng had originally thought that the other party would more or less resist, such as using King of Gods’ points to exchange for a rocket launcher or something. Although the effect wasn’t great… He didn’t think that he would surrender so quickly. It was really boring. Seeing that the Krontgen Company player was no longer a threat, Fang Heng left behind a Tyrant to continue demolishing the base, bringing the remaining two Tyrant forms into Yin City to provide support. Yin City, art gallery. Hao Zhou had already led his team to the second basement of the art gallery. The strength of the Lickers was far beyond the imagination of the players in Hao Zhou’s team. After the Lickers entered the city, they took the initiative to spread out and hunt down the zombie horde that wandered around Yin City. The number of zombies in the entire city was greatly reduced! Sister Li did not need to activate her perception barrier at all. The team killed a few zombies that they encountered along the way and quickly entered the art gallery.
