blood plague

Chapter 250: Acting Separately
Maria got up after her roommate got up.Although it should be the age of snoozing, getting up early habitually is a part of life for Maria.

This room is the bedroom of the priests of the Church of Hope. The furnishings are extremely simple. There is not even a wardrobe, only a shelf where clothes can be hung.

Originally, there was only one single bed here. After the personnel of the reclamation group settled in the Hope Church, according to Iger’s rule that each room should accommodate at least two people, a new simple bed was built here with wood.

After being covered with mattresses and bedding looted from other houses, although the cot looked crude, it was not bad for sleeping.

On the first day, the woman in the same room insisted on giving up her bed to Maria. After arguing for a while, Maria still slept on the cot.

Maria went to the switch in the dark and turned on the light.After living in Rapid Creek Town for a long time, Maria couldn't live without electrical appliances.

Then Maria put on a dress that had been prepared yesterday.Putting on this civilian clothes, Maria always felt a little uncomfortable.

Many people feel unaccustomed to wearing the monastic uniform for the first time; when they suddenly change it after wearing it for a long time, this will cause the second time to get used to it.

There was no mirror here, but after Maria tugged at the clothes by feel for a while, she realized what the problem was.The neckline of this dress is cut too low.

Maria took off her clothes. She dug out the needle and thread from her carry-on bag, and then carefully sewed up the neckline of the clothes until it reached a position that satisfied her.

Putting on the revised dress again, Maria still felt that it didn't fit.It should be said that she felt even more uncomfortable than before, and her upper body was tightened so tightly that she felt an unbearable suffocation.

"Maria." Alison said to Maria: "Do you need my help? I don't think your clothes fit well like this."

Maria blushed. Yesterday she asked Sandora, who was in charge of internal affairs, to ask for a piece of clothing at random. At that time, she only saw that Sandora's figure was similar to her own. Maria had worn nun clothes for more than ten years. As far as she is concerned, she doesn't know that besides the size of clothes, there are also differences in dressing styles.

Alison came over and picked up a pair of scissors, then stopped in front of Maria, and motioned her to raise her chin to look up.

Alison put the scissors into the neckline that Maria had just sewed, and then cut it slowly. She re-cut the neckline of the dress that Maria had just sewed.

"Enough, stop." Maria shouted nervously.

Alison ignored her and continued to make the last two cuts.

"Okay, it's done." After Alison retracted the scissors, she smiled at Maria and said, "You are beautiful, Maria. This is God's blessing to you, please accept it with gratitude. "

Facing Alison's blessing, Maria suppressed her discomfort and shyness.

Everything always has a beginning.

Maria took a deep breath, since she decided to take off her monastic uniform, she must learn to live the same life as others.

"Maria, can the morning class start?" Alison asked Maria.

After Maria calmed down, she nodded.

On the bedside of Maria's simple wooden bed was a huge and heavy canonical edition Bible, next to it was a wooden cross stained with blood.This is the relic of Father Locke.

These two relics should have been handed over to Iger, but Maria felt that it was not the time yet.

The training of Iger has just begun, and Father Locke encountered an accident, so this important task fell on his shoulders.

Although I don't have the qualifications to train priests, as Iger often said, "It's time to let go of some principles."

Maria is looking forward to the day when Iger puts on the priest's robe. On that day, she will hang the wooden cross on his chest with her own hands.

Father Iger is the one who inherits all the will of Father Locke.

The Gospel Team belongs to the Gospel Church, and no one is in a position to take that away, anyone.

Maria has taken off her monastic clothes, but her heart has not left the evangelical church.At present, there is no one in the Gospel Church. Alison really came here under the guidance of God.

Maria passed on her ordination to Alison, who will be a novice nun in the Evangelical Church from today.

Nuns serve priests, and priests serve God.

Maria knows a secret, a secret about "THE ONE".Father Locke became a martyr for guarding this secret.

Now the guardian is only me, and you cannot destroy me.

"Sister Alison, nuns need to pray 8 times a day, and now we come to the first mass together."

……

Today is the fourth day.

Iger is holding a short meeting.

When I met a screamer in the middle of the night that night, Iger was not sure whether it was a fish that slipped through the net in Pudo City or the first sprout to spring up after the rain. As a result, two screamers led a team to attack in the middle of the night last night.

This morning, hundreds of infected people surrounded the Nancheng Building. The field team had given up trying to poke with their spears. They rode on the windows of the second floor, holding their guns and shooting down.

Everyone is not worried that the gunshots will attract more infected people, and the infected people nearby have been emptied long ago.

Such a condescending shooting has a much higher hit rate than in a dangling carriage.These infected people pose no threat at all.

But now it can be seen that the new batch of screamers are gradually "maturing".The screamers could sense the existence of survivors in the distance. As soon as they woke up, they immediately led their brothers to attack the Nancheng Building.

Although the security here is guaranteed, and there is no shortage of supplies, and they are stationed here, the field team can actually use the building to surround the point to fight for help.

Attracting the Infested to use refueling tactics can also avoid hoarding too many Screamers among the Infested.As long as the Screamers don't reach a certain number or density, they won't be able to integrate the Bleeding Plague Heart.

However, it must also be considered that if the tide of infected people suddenly erupts, thousands of infected people will flood in at once, which is likely to trap the joint field team in the building, and it is easy to fall into strategic passiveness.

The short meeting held by Iger now is to discuss the follow-up tactical arrangements.

Unde was the first to speak, and he said: "Withdraw. I think we should have withdrawn long ago. Every night I stay here makes my heart jump. We need to keep moving, you know, moving. In order to maintain our Advantage.

It's an idiot's behavior to wait here for the infected to come. "

Unde's ability is very good. The unforgettable escape life made him adapt to the coming of the end in advance. In his eyes, these infected people who walk slowly and can't use guns are completely inferior to the oppressiveness brought by FB1 .

Unde has a bad habit, that is, in his daily communication, he often pops up various F words like a mantra, and he seems to be unable to speak without these words.

This is a habit formed by Ang De living in the bottom circle of society for a long time.Although everyone knows that Unde is not swearing at someone, he may be expressing liking or happiness. Most of the time, these F words actually have the same meaning as ah oh. I didn't even realize I said the word.

But the perception of bystanders is not so good.

So although Ang De tried hard to prove himself, his popularity was not very good. After everyone got used to Ang De talking with F, the evaluation of him stopped slipping to the negative side.

But Allen hasn't.

Upon hearing Unde's words, Allen seemed a little angry, but he tried his best to restrain himself.

"I want to be stationed here." Allen said to Iger, "I will pick some brave soldiers, we will build a solid line of defense here, and then stay here firmly.

This is our position, and I will never take a step back! "

Allen's last words were almost yelled at Unde, and Unde obviously didn't know how he offended Allen.

However, in Unde's perception, all those who are unfriendly to him are racists, prejudice and discrimination against him.

So Unde glared back at Allen angrily.

Iger tapped the table lightly with his fingers, and he found that many times, adults are more immature than children.

Unde proposed to retreat, which is a good suggestion.This place was originally called the Tidal Outpost.

Since it is called a tide, there will be ebbs and flows.

However, Iger feels that it is not time to retreat yet.

These three days of mobile warfare have gained a lot. The joint field team has wiped out at least thousands of infected people, and the results are more than the gains in the previous half month.From this point of view, if this momentum continues, in another half a month, maybe more than half of the infected people in Pudo City can be cleaned up without using napalm bombs.

Once they leave the Nancheng Building, they will lose a very rich supply point.Although some materials can be transported before evacuation, considering the consumption of half a month, the transport volume will be a bit large, so large that it will take a lot of time to complete.

Food is one aspect, mainly because the consumption of ammunition is too large.

The amount of ammunition consumed in the past few days was extremely astonishing. On average, each team consumed thousands of rounds of ammunition a day. In just three days, the entire field team had already consumed tens of thousands of rounds of ammunition.

Iger originally didn't have an intuitive concept of ammunition consumption, and his cognition was still stuck in the experience of playing shooting games before.

Combined with Iger's own shooting method, Iger felt that three or five bullets would be enough, not to mention one bullet to solve an infected person.

In this battle, the actual ammunition consumption and the number of enemies killed was about 20:1, that is, an average of 20 bullets killed an infected person.

Allen said that this is already above the ordinary efficiency.

No wonder.

Now Iger finally understands why the last time the Gospel team fought against three groups of infected people, there were obviously so many people, so why did they fight so hard.

There are only so many people in Jixi Town, how many guns, how many ammunition stocks, and a few hundred infected people are enough to drive Jixi Town into chaos.

Due to this reality, the evacuation of the Nancheng Building means the interruption of supply, and the interruption of supply will bring about a decrease in efficiency.

I can no longer play monsters so happily.

And stick to it, Iger first considers who, not why or what.In the past, www thinking was always emphasized, but Iger felt that the first thing to consider was the human issue.

However, Allen expressed his willingness to stay by himself, which is naturally excellent.Specifically, how many people he can recruit to guard here voluntarily, and how he can keep the mentality and morale of the defenders from being reduced too much due to the siege, this is not a problem that Iger needs to consider.

Iger is also tired of driving as a driver. He is adapting to letting his subordinates drive by themselves, and he is only responsible for stepping on the brakes.

Nicholas's opinion is similar to that of Iger. He believes that both sides need to be considered, and the difficulty lies in the distribution of left-behind personnel.

Iger decided to divide his troops into two groups.

After the meeting, Allen started looking for his team members, and Iger also publicly announced that the left-behind players can reasonably consume the existing supplies.

Attracted by the abundance of supplies, there are more than ten people who are willing to stay in the Nancheng Building than Iger expected.

Afterwards, Iger led most of the team members to withdraw to the temporary headquarters outside the city after replenishing supplies to the maximum extent.

In the Nancheng Building, the left-behind people didn't just squat in the building to eat, drink and have fun. They also had to go out to kill monsters today.

Allen called two of his team members, and he ordered the two to form a team on their own today. He still has other important and urgent tasks to do.

After the other team members left, Allen was the only one left in the entire Nancheng Building. After scratching his head with his hand, he walked towards his workshop.

Allen's munitions development encountered a bottleneck that was difficult to overcome.

Put simply, Allen failed in his attempt to create an explosive device for napalm.

Although I have received systematic and complete blasting training in the army, the training content is how to use various types of explosives, including military explosives from other countries, and occasionally involves the transformation of civilian equipment.

But how to make military equipment out of civilian parts is Aaron's biggest problem right now.
