Yu Tian's killing command made the sound of empty ammunition, and he quickly switched to the upper drum. The killing command continued to roar to both sides of the pickup truck. At the same time, Yu Tian opened the system warehouse and glanced at the rate of increase of the second-order nightmare crystals inside.
"The number of second-level zombies is close to 20%... No, I'm afraid it's close to 30%!"
The increasing number of second-order nightmare crystals did not bring any joy to Yu Tian. On the contrary, it made him feel like a thorn in his back. The transformation from the first-order to the second-order is not terrible, but the sudden increase in the number of second-order mutants will cause a sudden increase in the number of second-order mutants in the future.
Let the number of third-order mutants explode for the first time!
"Yu Tian, look over there! Eleven o'clock direction!"
Everyone's eyes were focused in that direction, and they saw a group of first-level zombies lying on the ground roaring wildly, while his body muscles were constantly squirming strangely, and as the squirming new muscles expanded, they were torn out of the dry skin.
Their height and body shape are growing rapidly.
Among them was an already huge second-level agile zombie that was roaring. The enlarged muscle tissue began to spread throughout the body. The originally thin body became thicker and thicker visibly to the naked eye. The entire mutant exuded a terrifying aura.
This is transforming to the third level!
Kaka!
Yu Tian immediately turned around the killing command, and the first-order nightmare ammunition in the violent flames hit the zombies fiercely.
Bang bang bang!
The zombies who were lying on the ground transforming to the second level were blown to pieces one by one. The quasi-third level agile zombie was given priority by Yu Tian's headshot. Their blood cores had not yet condensed before they were fully transformed, so a headshot could still kill them.
.
But before Yu Tian could let go, violent roars roared from all directions, with joy like rebirth and an even stronger sense of hunger in their voices. The sound waves swept around like a tsunami, even farther away from Yu Tian
I also heard the same roar!
"It's really started!" Yu Tian's face became visibly pale, and he shouted fiercely: "Speed up, we have to rush back to the hospital before they complete the mutation!"
Buzz——
Lin Qingya stepped on the accelerator immediately. The firearms in the hands of Yu Tian and Khlanev did not stop for a moment, and the pickup truck roared through the residential area.
But the scene around them made everyone unhappy. They were able to rush over easily not because they were fast enough, but because the zombies around them were experiencing unknown mutations. They were all immersed in the excitement of their own mutations and had no energy.
Pay no attention to the pickup truck rushing past them.
Yu Tian retracted from the sunroof to the back seat. Behind him were the roars one after another, which made people feel chilled. Every roar represented the birth of a new second-level mutant, and it might even be a third-level mutant!
"What should I do with my cuteness..." Deng Yanni's eyes filled with a surge of tyranny around her, causing him to fall into extreme panic for the second time. But she also knew that she could not cause trouble to Yu Tian at this time, so she suppressed the sadness in her heart.
Back home, Deng Yanling did not jump out to look for trouble at this time.
The pickup truck rushed back to the hospital. Before the pickup truck could stop, the painful wails from the distance made Yu Tian's heart sink again.
"Doctor, please help me, will I die?"
"I'm hurt, my leg..."
"Damn it, why did those monsters suddenly become level two!"
Looking around, the wounded were lying everywhere in the parking lot, and the air was filled with a faint smell of blood. People were constantly moving back and forth among the wounded, and everyone's face was full of panic.
Yu Tian immediately held an emergency meeting, and everyone looked unhappy.
"Our search for supplies went smoothly. When we were retreating, we suddenly encountered a group of zombies. I sent eight soldiers to stop them as usual. Unexpectedly, dozens of second-level zombies suddenly rushed out and wounded several people on the spot.
." Fu Jun said with lingering fear.
"I have a similar situation here. I also suddenly encountered high-level zombies when I returned, but I discovered it early and sniped the third-level zombie king inside from a distance, and rushed out with others while the zombies were in panic."
Chu Yue kept checking and wiping his weapons with both hands, his eyes filled with fear.
Yu Tian didn't blame them. During this time, everyone was used to the attack intensity of zombies. Eight warriors with killers were more than enough to deal with a zombie group of 100 people. Even if there were only a dozen or so second-level zombies inside, they would be directly killed.
Killed by first-order nightmare bullets on the way to charge.
But now the proportion of second-level zombies in the zombie swarm has suddenly increased from less than 10% to more than 30%. The sudden increase in number instantly overwhelms their thermal weapon advantage.
"How many people have we lost in total?" Yu Tian asked.
"A total of twenty-three soldiers and sixteen survivors died, and thirty-seven were slightly injured and nine were seriously injured. All of them were scratched by second-level zombies and have mutated. Old Huang has been rushing to produce them in the laboratory.
Second-level nightmare virus protection agent."
After hearing Chen Zhonghe's report, Yu Tian's face turned extremely ugly. Such heavy casualties will definitely severely dampen the enthusiasm of the survivors to fight. Coupled with witnessing the mutation of the second-level virus infection of those around them, the survivors will have doubts about leaving the hospital.
Instinct fear, even psychological disorder.!
Now, if we want to dispel everyone's fear of second-level zombies, the best way is to popularize second-level virus protection agents to the entire population.
"Tell Lao Huang that from now on all nightmare virus protection agents will be made from second-order nightmare crystals. The first-order ones have been eliminated."
"In the future, our patrol teams will be rearranged into teams of twenty. The team leader must have experience in dealing with second- and third-level variants. People who have not been vaccinated with second-level virus protection agents are not allowed to go out to perform tasks."
The atmosphere in the conference room became a little more solemn again. It was not easy to see the hope that all employees would be immune. Unexpectedly, we had to start all over again. Fortunately, the production technology of virus protection agents had matured, and we had time to save the lives of these injured people.
But what is more serious is the threat of second-level mutants. Originally, ordinary people can deal with first-level zombies, and first-level evolvers can chop melons and vegetables. But once they enter the second level, their combat effectiveness will suddenly increase. Ordinary people cannot fight against such zombies.
Monsters, even first-order evolvers, are very few who can face second-order mutants alone.
The balance of battle between humans and mutants tilts once again!
"Anyway, there are extra Type 95 assault rifles in the warehouse. How about we equip the survivors with guns too." Meng Lin said,
As long as it can be scaled up, even ordinary people can use guns to deal with the second-order mutants. This seems to be the simplest and most direct solution.
But Yu Tian was still hesitant. Although distributing guns to ordinary people could alleviate urgent needs, it would also bring great hidden dangers. Because once it falls into the hands of someone with evil intentions, it may lead to more serious consequences.
"Wait a minute, it's not time to equip them with guns, so I don't believe them yet." Yu Tian still couldn't make up his mind in the end.
"Since we can't issue weapons, we should use other methods to improve everyone's combat effectiveness."
After Yu Tian and Chen Zhonghe inspected the treatment of the wounded, they rushed to the laboratory in a hurry.
"Quickly, bring me the inactivated virus stock solution."
"The emulsification team speeds up and must complete the emulsification work within half an hour."
"We still have two hours, and we must inject the second-level virus protection agent into the wounded within two hours."
