Apocalypse: I Can See the Health Bar, Kill Monsters and Drop Treasures Chapter 399

Chapter 399 Zombies Frozen

This New Year's party didn't last long, starting at six o'clock in the afternoon and ending at nine o'clock in the evening.

The main purpose of the party is to show the base's current strength and describe its future prospects to the residents in the base, so that they can have confidence in the new year.

After the party is over, the live broadcast is of course also over. Residents in front of the screen should eat the New Year's Eve dinner, and those who have finished can go to bed early. After all, it has been too cold these two days, and the quilt is still warm. If you don't want to go to bed so early, you can also stay awake until midnight to welcome the arrival of the New Year.

There are naturally no fireworks, firecrackers or the like.

It's not that I'm afraid of attracting zombies. Changhe Base is big enough. If I set off firecrackers inside, the sound wouldn't be transmitted, let alone the high walls. The main reason is that gunpowder is a strategic material. If you can save it, save it and use it in the right place.

But when waiting for midnight, the speakers in the base will sound at that time, counting down to welcome the New Year, which is somewhat atmospheric.

In the Great Hall where the party was held, the live broadcast of the party was over, but the event was not completely over.

Those who attended the party obviously received the news, so none of them left.

Wang Tao looked at Qu Shilin next to him with some curiosity.

“Do you know what the next activity is?”

Yao Guodong told Wang Tao not to leave and left after saying there would be an event later. Wang Tao didn't even have time to ask what it was.

Qu Shilin shook her head.

"I don't know either."

Wang Tao looked at Cheng Yiyi on the other side.

Cheng Yiyi obviously knew something, she explained in a low voice:

"There is a high probability that it is a trade fair... because I received a notice before that after the party, a trade fair within the six major legions will be held. But looking at the situation now, this trade fair seems to have some changes, and the scale is not limited to the six major legions. Between the armies..."

“Is there a trade fair…”

Wang Tao pondered.

Now in this great hall, there should be people from all medium and above forces in the entire base. If a trade fair is held at this time, the scale will be quite large. But this trade fair was held too suddenly, and they were not prepared...

“What were you prepared to trade before?”

Wang Tao leaned over and asked softly.

"Probably just some weapons and equipment. Anyway, I have nothing to trade here..." Cheng Yiyi shrugged, and then said, "But these traded things shouldn't be used by anyone else, right? After all, they are like tanks and missiles. Something like that, this can only be traded within our six major legions, and no one else should be allowed to participate..."

Cheng Yiyi was also a little confused, and she didn't feel like it was a trade fair.

“Then let's see later…”

Wang Tao didn't ask any more questions.

Not long after, Gu Yun walked onto the stage holding a microphone.

"Everyone, I'm sorry for wasting your time. The next event was added temporarily, so I didn't notify you in advance... But this is a very important matter. Please don't leave in a hurry... There are two things in total. Let me talk about it first. The first thing—the trade fair…”

“It's really a trade fair!”

Wang Tao raised his eyebrows.

However, after listening to Gu Yun's explanation, Wang Tao found that the transaction was a little different from what he had imagined. In addition to taking money to buy things in the traditional sense, there are also various cooperations.

For example, you can spend money to hire six legions to do something. The more difficult the thing is, the more money you will spend.

For another example, you can ask someone to help you awaken. The price is probably very expensive, but if you can succeed, you will make a lot of money.

You can even “sell yourself”—in fact, that means finding a boss to earn a living...

Anyway, this transaction will have various forms of transactions, which looks quite interesting.

“As for the second thing...the committee plans to arrange a trip to the city tomorrow, led by six legions. Everyone can sign up..."

As soon as these words were spoken, there was an instant uproar.

　　With such heavy snow and cold weather outside, wouldn't it be like asking for death to go out at this time?

Although the snow this afternoon has lightened up and is not as scary as the previous blizzard, who knows whether it will continue to snow in the future!

Wang Tao also frowned a little.

It is obviously unwise to leave the city at this time, it is too dangerous. Unless there is a huge benefit that outweighs the risk...

Isn't it possible that you are going to the catacombs? But this isn't the time I mentioned before, right?

At this time, Cheng Yiyi seemed to have received some news and got up directly to go to the committee.

Gu Yun waited until everyone talked for a while before continuing:

“We have just received news that it is basically a land of ice and snow outside the base. I know it is definitely not appropriate to go out at this time, but we found that the zombies in the zombie wave outside... seem to be frozen!"

Zombies are frozen?

Everyone at the scene was stunned for a moment and then became excited instantly.

The city hall has previously estimated the number of zombies outside the base. It is conservatively estimated that there are more than 500,000 zombies, and they are all third- and fourth-level zombies, with a large proportion of elite zombies. As for the lord zombies, there aren't many, but there are a few fifth-level ones, and there seems to even be a sixth-level one.

Let's not talk about the lord zombies, let's talk about these ordinary and elite zombies. Although they are dangerous, they also represent a large number of crystal nuclei!

Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to kill so many zombies. Unless big killers like missiles or even nuclear bombs are used, this should be used if possible. Otherwise, some super zombies may be created and cause great trouble to the base.

And now, Gu Yun said that these zombies are frozen!

Wouldn't that be their opportunity?

If you can kill these zombies, you will not only eliminate a big threat, but more importantly, you can get the crystal cores in these zombies' heads!

At this time, Gu Yun spoke again:

“According to our estimates, the total value of the crystal nuclei of all the zombies in these zombie waves is probably more than one billion..."

“More than one billion!”

Everyone exclaimed again, and Wang Tao could feel that many people were breathing quickly.

It's worth one billion!

If you can get all these crystal nuclei - no, it's impossible to get them all. Even if you can get one percent, that's 10 million! Not to mention 10 million, for an individual, 1 million can bring wealth and freedom, and he will spend the rest of his life eating in the base and waiting to die!

Of course, it is definitely impossible for people like them to eat and wait for death, but if they can get so much money, it can help them improve a lot of strength. "What does Secretary-General Gu mean that the six legions are going to lead us out to hunt these frozen zombies?"

Someone asked quickly.

"Yes."

Gu Yun nodded, and then said.

"But I have to make it clear that the zombies outside have not been completely frozen. After all, if they were completely frozen, we wouldn't be able to go out...but their movements are indeed greatly restricted! So, if you If you want to go out with the six legions, you can sign up... Of course, there is still some danger in going out, so this is all voluntary, and we give everyone one day to think about it, so there is no need to rush. Next, our trading meeting will officially begin! "

After Gu Yun finished speaking, he stepped down, and the people below fell into the discussion again.

Cheng Yiyi came back at this time. She came to Wang Tao and whispered:

“I said, why didn't I know about this? It was really an emergency. I just asked about it…”

"…So this is ah!"

After listening to Cheng Yiyi's words, Wang Tao suddenly realized.

To put it simply, before the heavy snowfall, a group of people were trapped outside. Those people were already desperate, but when the snow became lighter again, they quickly seized the opportunity to run to the base.

On the way back, a group of zombies blocked their way. They thought they were going to go through a fierce battle, but they found that these zombies were frozen by the heavy snow!

Of course, it's not that the zombies are frozen into ice sculptures, but that their movements are greatly restricted.

So this group of people tried to attack, and sure enough they found that these zombies were much easier to kill than before!

After killing these zombies, they finally managed to escape.

After returning, the gatekeeper at the base was surprised that the people trapped outside could come back, so they chatted a few more words.

Then they learned about the frozen zombies, so they quickly reported the news.

　　When the city hall got the news, it happened to be the beginning of the party. Yao Guodong left for a while to deal with this matter.

For ordinary people, frozen zombies may be a topic of conversation after dinner. But for the city hall, this may be the possibility to eliminate the zombie tide in the neighborhood!

If the zombies are frozen as those people said, then they can definitely eliminate the zombie tide by gathering an army!

　　But hearing with the ears is false and seeing with the eyes is true.

The prerequisite for eliminating the zombie tide is that the news that the zombies are frozen is accurate. So the city hall = while reporting the news to the committee, they immediately sent people out to investigate.

Moreover, he took the risk of sending a helicopter for reconnaissance.

They found the zombie wave. Just as the previous group of people said, the zombies in the zombie wave were also frozen and moved extremely slowly!

This is simply a God-sent opportunity!

If we can really eliminate this zombie tide, we will not only solve the threat of zombies, but also obtain a large number of crystal nuclei! Win-win!

And this time is just right. If it were earlier and the zombies were not frozen, there would be nothing we could do. If it were later and the zombies were completely frozen, it might be easier to kill them, but whether they could come out or not would be a matter of course. The problem is—if the temperature is too low, they are afraid of freezing to death! Not to mention that if there's a snowstorm, you won't be able to see the road... So you can't miss this opportunity, you have to kill those zombies outside now!

While watching the party just now, the 23 members of the committee had actually held an internal meeting, and the plan to take the opportunity to go out and hunt zombies was approved by multiple votes.

Before the party ended, Yao Guodong immediately arranged for someone to keep the guests in the auditorium. After all, this matter should be done sooner rather than later. The final plan is set today and we can set off tomorrow!

This is also the reason why the planned trade meeting suddenly expanded in scale from the six major legions to include all the forces present. It is to let everyone improve their strength quickly while they can, and not go out to hold them back.

The reason Cheng Yiyi didn't know was because the committee had just passed the resolution and hadn't had time to notify her yet.

“That being said, this is indeed an opportunity…”

Wang Tao nodded.

Although the zombie tide is still some distance away from the base and has no intention of rushing towards the base, it is still a big threat, especially as the zombie tide continues to grow and may one day besiege the base.

If there is a chance to eliminate this zombie tide, then we must definitely seize it, let alone there is such a crystal core...

However, Qu Shilin frowned after listening.

“But there's a problem—how can we guarantee that there won't be a blizzard after we go out tomorrow? Although the heavy snow has stopped now, what if it snows again after we go out tomorrow?”

There is no way to guarantee this, because her meteorologist colleagues cannot predict when it will snow. They can only speculate that it will snow more often this winter.

“So, this is also a gamble, and going out is very risky. Of course, the base also considers that extreme situations may occur, and they have some contingency plans..."

Cheng Yiyi opened his mouth and said.

Lan Yulian and others, who had been silent, looked at Wang Tao and asked him if he was going.

“I think I can go because I'm not afraid of the cold, haha!”

Xiang Hongbin suddenly laughed and spoke.

After his body was modified, it is both heat-resistant and frost-resistant, and his combat effectiveness will be higher in places with lower temperatures - because his mechanical prostheses will heat up after being used for a long time. If the temperature of his environment is low, , it can assist his mechanical prosthetic body to cool down and prevent it from being burned out, so that it can always exert its maximum performance!

Wang Tao nodded and said:

“We can think about it, let's take a look at the specific plans for the base first…”

Gu Yun just mentioned this matter, and the specific details have not been explained yet.

Wang Tao is still a little afraid of this matter, not because of zombies, but because of nature...

At this time, the trade fair has begun.

Originally, for everyone at the scene, this trade meeting came a bit too suddenly. Except for the six legions, no one else had any preparation and did not know what they were going to trade. But now after listening to Gu Yun's words, they instantly understood their goal—to trade something that could immediately improve their combat effectiveness!

This time, the six legions personally led the team. Since the establishment of Changhe Base, there have been few such large-scale operations.

With the six legions, there is no need to say that they feel safe, but they are hunting zombies, and their own safety is far from enough. Such a good opportunity cannot be used to make soy sauce, and this opportunity must be seized!

Some people have started to shout. Some sell weapons, some want win-win cooperation, and some sell some messy things that they say can improve combat effectiveness...

Wang Tao was about to go for a walk when someone suddenly came over.

"President Lan, will your Spark have time? I would like to ask you to help me awaken..."
