C70 (2/2)
The air shaft had been opened on a broken wall, but perhaps it hadn't been there before, only then it had collapsed to form a broken wall. Below the broken wall was a col. At the bottom of the col, 500 meters away, there was a flat land with dozens of acres. The flat land was filled with tall weeds and a few lonely big trees. What surprised Zhu Tianming was that the entire col was filled with densely packed zombies, and in the middle of the flat area, weeds were flattened by zombies, forming a flat dam the size of an acre. In the center of the flat dam, there were all kinds of food: rabbits, pheasants, pigs, sheep, and human corpses. There were also watermelons, peaches, and various other fruits. It seemed that these people were having a meal. Hundreds of naked zombies were standing around these people. In the distance, there were countless of them. From the looks of it, those hundreds of zombies should be the bodyguards of those dozens of people, and most likely, they were all high-level zombies!
After observing, Zhu Tianming discovered that the little man on the left should be the boss of this group of people, because he was probably full right now. So, he threw away the half-eaten arm in his hand, and the others immediately sent him a large watermelon.
Seeing the situation, the experienced Zhu Tianming quickly understood that he had won the lottery. He could tell that those people were definitely zombies of the fourth step!
”Wang Jinlin, Xiao Jun, the two of you come up!” After understanding the situation, Zhu Tianming immediately gave the order in a low voice. As the cave entrance was too narrow, it could only accommodate three people at most.
After the two climbed up, Zhu Tianming said, ”Did you see that? Those people were definitely zombies of the fourth step, and there was also that small figure. They were definitely zombies, the boss! We are about to become rich, now listen to me: I will deal with that little man, Wang Jinlin, find a person on the right side of the little man, Xiao Jun will choose on the left side, use a armor piercing bullet and aim it at those people's eye sockets or ears, listen to my command, and fire together! ”
”Alright, get ready. 1, 2, 3, fire!” Zhu Tianming calmly ordered.
Bang, bang bang bang! After the three silencer's barrel made a low sound, the three bullets smoothly flew towards the people who were wearing the clothes. According to Mianzhou's hunting team's configuration, Zhu Tianming was using the team's only Hunting 01 sniper rifle. To Zhu Tianming, who was a Sharpshooter, a distance of 500 meters was a given, and the combination of Hunting 01 and the power of the special armor piercing bullet wasn't a joke! Thus, the zombie boss had no suspense.
The three bullets almost hit the target in an instant, and the armor piercing bullet that had been fired at 01% went into the short guy's right ear. The huge power instantly tore the short guy's head apart like a watermelon.
The shot fired by Xiao Jun on the left also accurately hit the right eye socket of a big guy who was wearing clothes. However, because Xiao Jun used an ordinary sniper rifle and the power of the shot was low, it was unable to tear the big guy's head apart. However, the powerful impact of the shot still messed up the interior of his head.
Wang Jinlin aimed at the right ear of one of the females, but his aim was a bit worse and the bullet struck the woman's cheek. It was a pity that Wang Jinlin also used a normal sniper rifle, but it still wasn't enough to break through the fourth stage of defense, and it was blocked by the woman's tough cheek bones and skin.
The sudden death of the boss and one of his brothers shocked all the remaining zombies, but they still couldn't tell where the threat came from. The zombies were still confused.
Bang, bang bang bang! Zhu Tianming and the others did not care about that. The second round of attacks followed one after another. Another zombie's head exploded, and the other two also staggered from the attacks. This time, the remaining zombies weren't confused, because they clearly felt the danger.
”Ao, ao, ao!” With a series of howls, all the zombies started fleeing for their lives. In an instant, the entire col, including the surrounding hundreds of thousands of zombies, were completely wiped out.
Seeing that the zombies had all run away, Zhu Tianming's group of five naturally slipped down from the broken wall. The cove was completely trampled by the zombies, so the remaining three corpses in clothes were left there.
According to Mianzhou's military merits declaration requirement, Zhu Tianming took out his small axe and prepared to chop off the zombie's left and right hands after taking a photo (the initial rule was to cut only the little finger, but it would be difficult to judge the level of high-level zombies with one little finger, so it was later specified that high-level zombies needed to cut off the left and right hands). The other two were fine, although it was difficult, but in the end they still cut them down. There was no helping it, Zhu Tianming could only instruct them to bring the short man's corpse back.
When Zhu Tianming's team returned to Mianzhou at 4 PM, the entire city was in an uproar. Other than Chen Jing, Zhang Xinlin, and the others, no one else had ever seen the corpse of a Level 4 zombie. Later on, after the research of the Mianzhou specialized department, they all agreed that this little guy was definitely a peak level 4 zombie. He might have already reached his peak level, but due to his lack of mental energy, he was still unable to break through to the fifth level.
Due to the outstanding contribution of the 325 hunting team, not only did Zhu Tianming receive a reward of 700 thousand yuan (the reward system was this: 10 yuan for ordinary zombies, 100 ~ 500 yuan for second zombies, 5000 ~ 10,000 yuan for third zombies, and 10 ~ 500 thousand yuan for fourth zombies), but also an extra 1 million yuan for the fact that the top officials of Mianzhou had used Zhu Tianming's narration, photos and videos (Zhu Tianming had cleverly taken footage on his mobile phone), as well as the short man's corpse.
It seems that the place where the zombies used to be was the home of the boss of the zombies. After the remaining zombies discovered the sudden death of the boss and the other two brothers, they thought that this was an extremely dangerous place and their fear of death made them retreat back to their nest. At the same time, because they were being carried away, the zombies that were previously active in this area were also taken away, so it was very difficult to see the zombies in this large area.
The sudden occurrence of the situation naturally allowed Chen Jing to realize his strategic intent ahead of time. The only drawback was that he did not reach the goal of consuming the strength of the zombies on a large scale.
The happiest ones were Xie Zhanglong and the others, because they could finally go home and not have to worry about Chen Jing suddenly changing his mind. First of all, out of the 1000 Sharpshooters who entered the Mianzhou hunting team, quite a number of them were unwilling to return. Because the Mianzhou hunting team was well-coordinated, they were not willing to leave, so when the order for them to return was given, many of them intentionally hid away. In the end, Xie Zhanglong only took less than 500 people with him.
The other unforeseen event was the 500,000 citizens who had been living a peaceful and comfortable life in Mianzhou for the past few months. Due to the fear that Chen Jing might lose his temper, Xie Zhanglong and the others didn't dare force him. In the end, only about half of them returned to Chengdu with Xie Zhanglong out of concern for their separated friends and family.
Of course, due to the destruction of Chengdu, there had been quite a number of survivors who had managed to escape a calamity in various buildings, including the former Ronan City's other general level expert, Liang Jianping. What made Xie Changlong even more delighted was that another one-armed general level expert had appeared among the survivors of Chengdu like a rising star, and if Chen Jing was here, he would immediately recognize that person to be Qiu Yongqiang, who had escaped from his hands.
