The sky was darkest before dawn, the sun shined on the snow and ice. The people on the wall dealt with the attacking zombie birds while also watching the mix of black and white. Who knew how many bereaved birds were wantonly looking for food. The people were fearful since their walls were of no use against the birds.
Of course, when they looked outside, the walls seemed to still have some use.
There were many shadows in the snow, most of them small but some giant zombies were at the back. Mindlessly throwing the surrounding snow blocks, rocks and zombies over the wall.
Thankfully there were protective barbed metal on top of the wall to block the projectiles. But it was inevitable that some thrown zombies would try and climb the metal thorns.
It was a crisis, the base survivors had to think up a method to deal with the monstrous, giant zombies as soon as possible.
Luo Xun and team were very thankful that Puppy had an ability, although it was not super lethal, it was very useful in the present situation. They lived on the upper floors, as long as Puppy user gravity ability outside, the birds would splash against the ground.
The 16 storey building was at least 30 metres high. A fall from this height would cripple if not kill the zombies.
Unfortunately, since they were so far from the ground, it was not convenient to go out and pick up the cores. Otherwise they would simply let the dog deal with all the zombie birds and then they could go down and pick up the crystals – it would have been so convenient.
But although Puppy was very effective, her mental strength was very limited. After a while her tongue flopped and she looked very tired.
Luo Xun took some level one nuclei and put them in front for her to replenish, but Puppy twisted her head and showed no interest.
The inconvenience of communication barriers made Luo Xun scratch his head. However they could still fight zombies without Puppy's help. Right after Zhang Yi and Xu Mei cooperated – let them start burning off wings and other attacks!
Screams from downstairs and the neighborhood filled the air. Although it was better than when the zombie birds started attacking, but after a while there would sounds of explosions and collapsing buildings.
The team pressed down the uneasiness in their hearts and stopped themselves from looking away, focusing on the enemies in front of them. One shot after another, although the crossbow recoil was not comparable to large caliber firearms, too much was not bearable. Fortunately Yan Fei only opened two holes for shooting so that everyone could alternate. But sometimes metal zombies destroyed the outermost wall and then they had back up.
When they were outside base in the past, they faced thousands of zombies but they had strong metal cover, well designed traps and could use mushroom juice and petrol. Now they could only rely on the weapons in their hands and cycling through teammates.
The squad ground their teeth and continued fighting. The war continued from early morning into the afternoon...
"I'll get something to eat." Luo Xun unwittingly glanced at his phone screen – just some more useless news from base – have people who had been attacked by the birds hide in the underground bunker...Come on, until now they had not even dug a single cellar, where would they hide? It was now past 1:30 pm and they had not eaten since this morning!
"Find someone to go with you." Yan Fei needed to make sure of their safety outside the rooms. He had to keep an eye on mending the outer metal layers so he could not accompany Luo Xun.
