Chapter 570 - 496: When You Gaze into the Abyss, the Abyss Gazes Back_3
The crowd followed Zhang Su’s finger and looked at the tattered neighborhood sign; the words "Imperial Garden" had long lost their paint. The character "Imperial" was missing a stroke, the character for "Garden" was barely intact. The well-maintained Imperial Garden had become "Remove the Sun Garden."
Liu Yao scratched his head dryly, looking at Ma Xiyu beside him and said, "Xiaoma, do you remember?"
Ma Xiyu furrowed his brows and pondered for a while, then uncertainly said, "I don’t know the exact number, but it’s definitely less than two thousand, and gradually we killed some. At most, around a thousand may be left. Later, we thought that stuffing all the zombies into Imperial Garden wasn’t appropriate, so we also threw some into Wanshudi over there."
"Okay, even if there are a thousand zombies in Imperial Garden, assuming the big-head zombies are a product of this rain enhancement, that means one arises out of every one hundred and thirty ordinary zombies. That’s not a small ratio..."
Zhang Su furrowed his brows, silently calculating while tinkering with something.
"It’s bad!"
Wang Xin stomped his foot nervously looking at Zhang Su and asked, "Brother Su, something won’t go wrong on the mountain, will it?"
"Oh dear!"
Upon hearing Wang Xin’s words, Zhao Dezhu’s face froze and he hurriedly said, "Yeah, big brother, there are quite a few zombies locked in the temple according to you. It wouldn’t be surprising if a big-head showed up!"
"There are cameras watching all the time, no movement escapes the eyes of the staff on duty. Many people are armed, your wife even has bombs, plus the tank and 003 are kept on Celestial Horse Island. You think there’s any trouble?"
During the battle with the first batch of ordinary zombies, Zhang Su had thought of the zombies stored on Celestial Horse Island, but he believed there wouldn’t be any problems. The combat power on the mountain wasn’t weak at all.
Ordinary zombies have indeed strengthened, maybe causing minor troubles, but not enough to cause lethal damage to the camp. Even if a few big-head zombies grow, they are no match for 003, let alone a hard clash with the tank, it’s pure boasting!
If so many people in the camp can’t even utilize the ready-made weapons, honestly, Zhang Su would feel very disappointed.
"That’s right, that’s right, hahaha, I was overthinking, overthinking..."
Truth be told, Zhao Dezhu, the wife-protecting maniac, was most worried about Yu Qing, rarely was she without him and Yuwen around, fearing she’d encounter trouble on her own.
Clap, clap.
"Come on, everyone, get ready, clean up the battlefield, first help get the truck upright!"
Zhang Su clapped his hands, calling everyone to hustle together.
He couldn’t return to Celestial Horse Island now; there’s a pile of matters needing handling ahead.
The snow had stopped, but the dark clouds above hadn’t dispersed, seeming like shadows weighing on the group’s hearts.
Just as Zhang Su predicted, there was indeed some trouble on Celestial Horse Island, and quite a commotion besides, but far from collapse. Tragically, Sister Lian had already lost her life; only Yu Jiaohua and Guo Fenfang among the female soldiers had gotten bitten; everyone else was fine.
At the moment, the scene beside the main gate was in ruins; the archway had collapsed, the ticket office vanished, wooden pillars were blown apart, debris scattered everywhere, and a large crater on the cement ground, the whole situation looked like it had been bombarded by fighter jets!
Two broken zombie corpses lay in the pit, precisely the big-heads just named by Zhang Su. Severed limbs and remnants flew apart, turned into a human jigsaw puzzle.
"Sister Qing, did the bomb earlier have Ascension Original Liquid in it?"
"So scary, the earth shook, won’t there be an avalanche?"
"Where do you see snow, huh, avalanche, has your brain been blasted by a donkey fart..."
"Stop talking nonsense, anyway, is that monster dead or not?"
The people on Celestial Horse Island hid behind the tank, peeking towards the scene at the main gate...
Originally, after Yu Jiaohua and Guo Fenfang were sent to Cui Leng Pavilion, the people on-site began tidying the battlefield. But just then, a clanging sound came from the temple direction within the scenic area.
Before anyone could investigate the situation, Mo Qianlan informed everyone via walkie-talkie that two strange figures appeared at the temple entrance, small heads and big bodies, exuding a grotesque and horrifying sensation!
When the crowd saw the big-heads from a distance through the scenic area gate, everyone froze, immediately realizing those two were mutated zombies!
Upon receiving the news, Fu Weijun rushed from the lab towards the gate like on a windfire wheel, but before he got there, an earth-shattering explosion sounded, leaving his head buzzing.
