Doomsday magician

Chapter 258 Rat Infestation
"Captain, since the second zombie mouse attack was successful, we have repeatedly asked the people in the logistics department to be careful, and we also specially mobilized the people in the defense department to be on guard." Su Xirui lowered his head to explain himself.

Xu Bai was stunned, and said, "Since we responded in time, why are there so many incidents of zombie rats attacking people?"

Su Xirui himself didn't know about this problem. He said depressedly: "It's about his own life and death. The people in the food department of the logistics department are careful enough, but no one knows where those zombie rats came from. These days , People in the garrison killed nearly a hundred of them one after another, but some zombie rats always came out from invisible corners, infecting the survivors who managed the paddy fields."

"So, there should be a lot of zombie rats nearby?" Xu Bai pondered for a while, then turned to Huang Keqin and said, "What do you think?"

Huang Keqin thought for a while, and said: "I suspect that a large group of zombie rats has moved from somewhere near our Changshan Lake area. In the past few days, because the zombie rats have continued to attack survivors, almost no one in the logistics department dared to go out. If things go on like this, it will not only affect the stability of the convoy, but also threaten the smooth growth of rice. Therefore, I suggest that the captain launch a large-scale search and suppression campaign to try to get rid of that wave of zombie rats who don't know where they are hiding."

"Zombie rats settled near our lake area?" Su Xirui thought for a while, and couldn't help agreeing with Huang Keqin's point of view.

Xu Bai's own thinking is roughly the same. Seeing that the two subordinates have the same opinion, he immediately made a decision: "Let the supernatural being withdraw and cooperate with the people in the garrison to conduct a comprehensive search. By the way, ask the people in the alliance, who can provide For clues to the old nest of zombie rats, a hundred catties of food will be rewarded."

"Yes."

As Su Xirui and Huang Keqin walked out side by side, this order from Xu Bai spread quickly, and people in many camps in the alliance took action one after another. Just over an hour later, thousands of survivors appeared near the paddy fields and began to search for the traces left by the zombie rats.

From a certain extent, this also reflects Xu Bai's increasing prestige and influence in the alliance.

"Good guy, there are at least 2000 people there."

After going to see it in person, Xu Bai couldn't help being a little speechless. In his opinion, with so many people searching together, those zombie rats could be dug out no matter how deep they were hiding. So, he quickly returned to Anshun Island and waited. What disappointed him was that Xu Bai waited for a long time with 2000 people to turn upside down the surrounding site with a radius of more than ten kilometers, and did not find any burrows that were suspected to be the nest of zombie rats.

"Is it still so hard to find?"

Xu Bai, who was a little unbelieving, simply increased the intensity of the reward, and replaced a hundred catties of grain with a ton of grain. If no one can find it within a day, the reward will be cancelled.

"A ton?"

The revised reward is undoubtedly a blockbuster, easily causing huge waves in the entire Changshan Lake area.Under such temptation, countless survivors scrambled over, digging three feet to find out where the zombie rats are.

Many people are powerful, this sentence is sometimes very close to the truth.

Just as the time for the reward was about to end, amazing news came from a small camp by the lake in the alliance: their people saw many zombie rats near the Longxi River dam.

This news made many impatient supernatural beings breathe a sigh of relief.They stood up one after another, scrambling to apply for tasks to kill those zombie rats. Logically speaking, the opponents are not large groups of third-order zombies. The number of monsters is unknown, so Xu Bai cautiously led the team to rush there.

Speaking of the Longxi River Dam, it's actually not too far away from Xu Bai and the others.When the spring flood broke out last time, Xu Bai, An Hai and the others led people there to close the floodgates. After the crisis was resolved and the floodgates were reopened, no one seemed to have been there again.

Are there really zombie rats in that kind of place?
With some doubts, the members of the supernatural beings divided into more than ten vehicles and rushed to the front of the dam. After everyone scattered and searched in groups of three and two, they actually found several rat holes on the building of the dam. The rat nests that were common in homes before the end of the world, these pierced holes are several times larger, and you can faintly hear the subtle voices inside from the outside. He just poked his head out of the hole, not knowing whether he sensed Xu Bai and the others or just happened to meet him.

"Looks like it's here."

As he said that, Xu Baiyan quickly raised his hand and set up the machine gun shooter that appeared out of thin air.

This was simulated by Xu Bai out of thin air. Although it looked like a machine gun, it was only made of condensed elements, and it couldn't be seen from the surface at all.

Although the level of evolution of these zombie rats is quite high, they are still not enough to look at before shooting the terrifying machine gun shooters. They were completely wiped out by hundreds of bullets after a few squeaks.

"The captain is mighty."

The few people who had just become supernatural beings saw the powerful power of the machine gun shooter, and they couldn't help being envious and admiring.

At this time, perhaps alarmed by the cries of the dead zombie rats, many zombie rats drilled out of this zombie rat hole one after another. open fire.Although it is close to the dam, it is not suitable to use powerful plants such as Pyroblast, but the ordinary double-shot pea shooter and the torch stump issued by Xu Bai are enough to eliminate these zombie rats.

In an instant, the corpses of forty or fifty zombie rats appeared at the entrance of the cave.

"But that's it, I thought it was so powerful." The person with supernatural powers vomited in disdain, obviously not enjoying it: "And the silver crystal dropped, and the strength is comparable to a second-order zombie."

"Yeah, at least here's a Zombie Mouse King or something."

Some supernatural beings were chatting and laughing easily, apparently thinking that the general situation was settled. Even Xu Bai didn't notice any accidents. He took a step back easily and let his subordinates do their work. Like endless, Xu Bai's expression became serious.

The entrance of the cave, which is not too big, is full of zombie rats that look like hills, almost completely blocking the entrance of the cave. Counting the broken limbs kicked away by the supernatural beings, there have been more than [-] unknowingly here. The corpse of a zombie mouse.

The other supernatural beings with relaxed expressions also gradually realized that something was wrong and stopped making noise.

"Why are there so many zombie rats? They all live in the main building of the dam. Could it be that the dam has been emptied?" Leopard said his guess, which shocked the supernatural beings present. As a small artificial lake, Changshan Lake's own control ability is actually very limited, and it is very dependent on the dam that controls the Longxi River. Once the dam hollowed out by zombie rats collapses, the crisis during the spring flood period may be staged at any time.

At that time, it will be impossible for them to control it.

Thinking of this, the original relaxed expressions on the faces of the supernatural beings have long since disappeared, replaced by anxiety and worry.

After nearly [-] zombie rats continued to pour out, there was finally no movement inside.Before the supernatural beings could breathe a sigh of relief, several other supernatural beings staying at the entrance of the cave exclaimed, and they also found traces of zombie rats.

"The problem is serious."

Xu Bai turned around twice on the spot, and his body was rarely sweaty. He pondered for a while, and then said to Leopard: "Go to An Hai, and ask him to send the employee who worked at the dam last time. .If possible, ask him to give the dam a physical examination to see what's going on inside."

"it is good."

Leopard nodded, and immediately went down to arrange the manpower.

Perhaps the dam of the Longxi River is too important. After learning about this, An Hai rushed over with people non-stop. However, the man who used to work here gave a negative answer: "First of all, we I don’t understand this; secondly, there is no professional equipment here. It is almost impossible to get a detailed data.”

"Can't you?" Xu Bai was inevitably a little disappointed.

With so many pairs of eyes staring at the man, the pressure was extremely great. After thinking for a long time, he changed his mind: "However, if some simple methods are adopted, we can roughly guess the situation of the dam. Of course, such errors may be large." It is very large, and the results obtained are for reference only.”

"It's okay, just let go and do it."

Xu Bai didn't demand too much, but comforted and encouraged this person so that he could go into battle lightly and not be affected too much.

After such a incident happened, many supernatural beings were a little listless.After leaving ten people here to take charge of protection, the rest returned to Anshun Island to wait for the news. It took two days, and Xu Bai, who was restless, finally got the news that the man had returned.

"How about it?"

Xu Bai found him immediately and wanted to ask him clearly.

The man's expression was gloomy, but he managed to squeeze out a tired smile and said, "Very bad, the inside of the dam is estimated to be hollowed out by at least one-third, and some of them are still in the key parts of the load. If there are no zombie rats to continue Erosion, the current water pressure may just maintain a balance, if the crisis similar to the previous spring flood reappears, or there is continuous heavy rain here, most likely..."

Although he didn't say it clearly, Xu Bai didn't need to think about it. When the dam collapsed, Anshun Island, which was less than one meter above the lake, would be really dangerous. Let it go, the entire Changshan Lake area may be threatened scope.

These damn zombie rats really know how to find a place.
