The voice on the broadcast stopped, leaving only a faint static and the soft sound of pages turning.
The speaker was organizing their notes.
"Captain, where should we put those things? Will the rooftop be too small?" Zhu Mingjun asked.
Wu Tian, however, was a bit worried about the thing in the old town, the giant special mutant mentioned on the broadcast. He added, "And I feel that the giant special mutant the broadcast mentioned is very likely that thing in the old town."
Hearing this, the group's joy was somewhat dampened. They all knew that if they truly received the broadcast notice and the laser locator, their escape plan would have to be prepared and completed even sooner.
But only two buildings in the entire complex had been cleared of zombies; the other areas hadn't been touched yet. It would take several more days to clear out the underground parking garage after receiving the airdrop, retrieve vehicles from there, modify them, and then set off.
"Let me think," Lin Yuan stood up and paced a few times, suddenly recalling a sentence from the broadcast.
"Stay at least 1000 meters away from giant special mutants."
Members of other teams only participated in combat in emergency or special situations.
Speaking of combat, Wu Mengyao's combat suit was also ready. This was the fruit of everyone's collective effort. Wu Mengyao and Qin Xia were responsible for sewing, while everyone else, except those on guard duty, was responsible for cutting fabric according to the design diagrams drawn by Wu Mengyao.
It took less than half a day to complete, and it didn't even delay their training.
Thanks to China's excellent fire safety measures, they used fire hoses for the bite-resistant parts of the combat suits and fire axes for weapons.
The fire boxes in both buildings were almost completely stripped bare.
Fortunately, the results were good. Wu Mengyao was now free to think about how to make arrows with the existing materials.
"That's indeed a good idea, Captain. I'd like to add something. We can place some heavy objects on that slope, piling them up to form a barrier no higher than 80 centimeters."
"Then set up a safe passage. Even if zombies breach the barricades, we can retreat safely, or even use this created terrain to kill zombies in return," Wang Zhihai added a good suggestion.
As Lin Yuan was about to applaud, Wu Tian continued, "Yes, and we can also set up deadly traps in the dead ends of these mazes, like wooden boards covered with sharp knives. Zombies that step on them will get dozens of holes through them."
"And also, on the slope, we can have the advantage of height and pour flammable oil to burn them to ashes," this was Lin Qingyan's idea.
"We can also specifically set up alternating high and low obstacles like the Great Wall. We can crouch behind one, catching zombies by surprise with an axe, or stab them in the rear. I doubt zombies would reinforce those areas," Zhu Mingjun said with shining eyes.
"Yes, and also..."
The methods included, but were not limited to, booby-trapping rotten meat. Fungal mutants were scavengers, and upon eating the flesh, it would explode in their mouths. Knives of various kinds would be stuck on both sides of the path, and zombies that approached would be sliced into a thousand pieces.
The group seemed to have opened a floodgate, continuously proposing methods to deal with zombies, the more vicious and insidious the better.
Why were they suddenly discussing so enthusiastically?
Lin Yuan was stunned.
Lin Yuan pondered.
Lin Yuan felt he should applaud.
Then he joined the discussion.
Right, it was absolutely right. What humanity were you talking about with zombies? Sending them directly to paradise was humanity.
"Alright, then the 'Silkworm Eating Plan' is set. We'll clear building number 3 tomorrow and then start..."
Before he could finish, the broadcast sounded again.
"Listen to the broadcast first."
"Next, we will broadcast the latest research report from the National Biochemical Research Group."
"First,..."
