An hour later, members of the surveillance team gathered on the top of the skyscraper again.
But when they came out of the mecha, except for Lin Xinghai and Zhuo Yongyuan, the other members' faces were a little pale.
That is caused by excessive consumption of perception.
The scope of their exploration this time was quite large, so during this hour, the mecha's speed was almost at full strength.
And it's not just about running. Even if they are exploring the periphery, they will encounter groups of corpses from time to time and encounter brief battles.
If these people didn't all break the three genetic locks, they probably wouldn't be able to survive.
However, Lin Xinghai and Zhuo Yongyuan didn't say anything. Instead, they exchanged information with each other with serious faces, and then quickly counted the number of zombies nearby.
It actually reached an astonishing 430,000.
"This number is too much." Zhuo Yongyuan felt a little headache, "And what's even more frightening is that the zombies are still increasing."
Lin Xinghai also frowned. The number was now 430,000. According to the zombie gathering situation they observed, it was estimated that it would approach the 500,000 mark at noon.
But on the military side, even based on the best-case scenario, it would take at least 2 p.m. to arrive at the industrial park, and clearing out zombies and collecting supplies would take time.
"You said, if the large army can arrive at the industrial park at 2 o'clock, will it be able to collect enough supplies before 6 o'clock in the evening?" Lin Xinghai asked.
"This shouldn't be possible. After all, according to the staff's calculations, it will take at least one night." Zhuo Yongyuan said helplessly.
"By 6 p.m., the number of zombies gathered nearby may reach a terrifying level of 600,000."
"And the number will continue to increase at night. Even before we collect enough supplies, the zombies may reach the terrifying level of 700,000 or even 800,000."
"If by that time, those mutated zombies happen to launch a zombie wave, then we will be in trouble."
Having said this, Lin Xinghai paused and suddenly asked: "You said before that according to the staff's calculations, the mercenary guild plus the military team can resist 500,000 zombies. Are you referring to day or night?"
You must know that being able to resist 500,000 zombies during the day and being able to resist 500,000 zombies at night are completely different concepts.
At night, zombies become stronger and humans become weaker.
If you can resist 500,000 zombies during the day, then at night, you may only be able to resist 400,000 or even 300,000 zombies.
"This...maybe it's daytime." Zhuo Yongyuan didn't have much confidence to speak at this time.
It is definitely a big trouble for them now. After working hard for a few days, the goal is about to be completed, but now there is a huge danger.
Is it possible that Chengdu has reached the last step and still wants to give up?
"Oh, forget it. I'll pass the information to the staff first and see what the higher ups plan to do!" Zhuo Yongyuan rubbed his head and decided not to think about it anymore.
Lin Xinghai also sighed lightly. No matter how strong he was, he couldn't do anything in front of hundreds of thousands of corpses.
All we can do now is complete the tasks assigned above.
As time went by, as they expected, there were more and more zombies.
At noon, they conducted another large-scale exploration, and the number of zombies nearby reached a terrifying figure of 500,000.
"How's it going? Hasn't the military department issued a new order yet?" Lin Xinghai couldn't help but ask after seeing Zhuo Yongyuan sending the information.
Things have reached this point, whether it is evacuating or fighting zombies, the military should take action.
But now, they are just immersed in clearing the road, seemingly ignorant of the situation here.
"Not yet. The staff just asked us to work harder, conduct more inspections when we have time, and pay attention to the movements of the corpses at all times." Zhuo Yongyuan shook his head and said.
Lin Xinghai frowned. He wanted to say something else, but suddenly a faint sense of crisis arose in his heart.
He immediately turned his head and looked in the direction where the sense of crisis came from, his eyes slightly narrowed, and he had a bad feeling in his heart.
"What's wrong?" Zhuo Yongyuan immediately discovered something was wrong with Lin Xinghai.
"There seems to be something approaching over there." Lin Xinghai pointed to the direction where the sense of danger was coming from.
His perception has exceeded 560 meters, which is much stronger than other genetic optimizers.
This kind of perception that is far beyond ordinary people also makes his crisis sensing ability far beyond ordinary people.
After hearing this, Zhuo Yongyuan suddenly showed a surprised look on his face, because he didn't feel anything. You must know that he is a strong man at the peak of the blood realm. Logically speaking, his perception is much stronger than Lin Xinghai.
But these words were spoken by Lin Xinghai, and he did not dare to look down upon them.
"Would you like to go take a look?" Zhuo Yongyuan asked.
"Yeah! I hope I made a mistake, but if I don't go and find out, I won't be able to feel at ease." Lin Xinghai nodded.
Soon the surveillance team set off again. Under the leadership of Lin Xinghai, the team quickly moved toward the southeast for nearly 2 kilometers.
At this time, they were all stunned, because at this time, the zombie detector showed dense red dots, moving in their direction.
That's...a wave of corpses!
Lin Xinghai reacted the fastest. Without saying a word, he controlled the mecha to jump onto the tallest building nearby, and then used an optical telescope to view the distance.
At the same time, the computer program was also quickly estimating the number of zombies, and Lin Xinghai's expression soon changed.
100,000!
The number of zombies rushing in the distance was as high as 100,000.
Although calculations using optical telescope observation will have a large error, even if the error is one to two thousand, it is a huge number.
Zhuo Yongyuan and others also followed closely. Seeing this scene, their faces instantly turned pale.
"It's probably all over now. When this wave of zombies passes, there will be 600,000 zombies there!"
"I thought I could at least survive until the night. Even if I can't win the battle and evacuate, I can still get some resources. But in this situation, I guess I have to evacuate immediately, and then there will be nothing." Zhuo Yongyuan
He said with full reluctance.
At this time, Lin Xinghai's expression changed again, because he felt that faint sense of crisis again, and it was still in another direction.
"Maybe our troubles don't end there." This time, even Lin Xinghai couldn't calm down.
"What's the meaning?"
"Not sure, but I'll find out soon."
Lin Xinghai said, controlling the mecha to jump off the building and go in another direction.
After Zhuo Yongyuan's expression changed a few times, he quickly followed.
Three minutes later, everyone stopped because they saw a wave of corpses approaching quickly.
"There is another zombie wave with more than 100,000 people, and they are all launched during this time period. This cannot be an accident, it must be caused by those mutated zombies."
"So, there are many mutated zombies that we haven't detected yet, and they actually participated in this operation." Lin Xinghai also felt a little powerless.
