Chapter 344

Thanks to the help of the gods in Kaifu Temple, the survivors in the three major bases in City C finally escaped the catastrophe.

But even so, they suffered heavy losses. Coupled with the warnings from Huang Chang and others, and the constant approach of zombies in City C, these people could only abandon the camp and flee in embarrassment.

But one can imagine the peril and hardship involved in escaping from city C to Liancheng.

After all, regardless of the lord-level creature that may be chasing after him at any time, the millions of zombies in City C alone and the various dangers along the way are enough to pose a huge threat to these survivors.

It is also because of this that it is still unknown how many of these tens of thousands of survivors will be able to escape, successfully arrive at Liancheng, and join Huang Chang and others.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the people in these three gathering places at least brought out the communication equipment. Although the signal is not very good, so that the communication is intermittent, but at least it can let Huang Chang and the others know the situation of the survivors in these three gathering places .

It's just...the news they got was not optimistic!

There are too many zombies in City C. Although most of the mutated zombies have been hunted down by the lord-level creature, the huge sea of ​​corpses still poses a huge threat to the fleeing survivors.

More importantly, since the leaders of those gathering places and some powerful supernatural beings were hunted and killed by the lord-level creatures as delicious food, the number of supernatural beings in the fleeing team was already very small. It is impossible to bring too many weapons and equipment, and at the same time, the movement is huge, which is easy to attract a large number of zombies, so that these survivors were blocked by a large number of zombies when they fled, causing heavy casualties.

On the other hand, those survivors who escaped from the Juzizhoutou gathering place were not much better. Just as Huang Chang worried, these survivors who escaped from the waterway also encountered various aquatic mutated creatures in the Xiangjiang River. The few big ships were okay, and could barely resist a certain degree of external attack, but some improvised small boats were unlucky, and would often capsize or sink as soon as they were attacked.

And once they fell into the water, these survivors had almost no resistance against all kinds of mutated creatures in the water!

It can be said that this was an escape journey with extremely tragic casualties and an extremely cruel escape.

While keeping in touch with the fugitives, Huang Chang and others also left the Zhaoshan camp with a hundred elite soldiers and went to the junction of Liancheng and C city to meet the fugitives in C city.

In the process of moving forward, Huang Chang and others also opened up a relatively safe road as much as possible, so that they could bring the survivors back to the Zhaoshan camp as soon as possible after receiving them.

On the other side, Liu Xin and others in the base also took pictures of a group of people waiting along the Xiangjiang River to pick up the survivors who traveled by water.

According to the current speed, those survivors who took the water route are estimated to arrive at the Xiangjiang River a day earlier than the other two groups of survivors who took the land route. This is also the advantage of taking the water route. Zombies block the way.

It's just that due to the interception of a large number of aquatic mutated creatures on the road, the risk of going by water will be greater. It can be said that there are disadvantages and advantages compared to going by land.

But in any case, with the strength and experience of the survivors of the last days, as long as no major accidents occur, a large part of these survivors should still be able to reach Lotus City successfully.

It's just... the most indispensable thing in the last days is accidents!

A few hours later, Huang Shang and others successfully arrived at the junction of Liancheng and C City.

As early as two or three hours ago, the group of survivors who traveled by water had successfully arrived in Liancheng, and then went to Zhaoshan camp for resettlement under the support of Liu Xin and others!

This is not surprising. After all, the waterway from City C to Liancheng is not very long, and there are no obstacles on the way. Now that these survivors are on their way, they can naturally arrive faster.

It's just... the loss is too great!

According to Liu Xin's statistics and the reports of those survivors, among the 13,000 people who evacuated from the Juzizhoutou gathering place before, only a mere 2,000 people managed to reach Zhaoshan, which is not even one-sixth of them. The survival rate has not been reached!

And this is just walking fifty or sixty kilometers of waterways!

It can be seen that the risk of walking on the waterway is huge!

"Li Yu, how long will it take for those survivors to reach Liancheng?"

Thinking of the terrible casualty rate in the waterway, Huang Chang couldn't help sighing, then picked up the military communicator modified and strengthened by Li Yu, and asked Li Yu who was in the base camp.

"According to the current speed, the vanguard should be able to arrive in four hours."

Li Yu: "However, their team is very long, and the follow-up troops have been dragged farther away, and they are all old, weak, sick and disabled... I guess it will take at least ten hours for all of them to arrive."

Although people's physique is constantly improving after the end of the world, it is not easy for anyone to trek a distance of more than 50 kilometers in this end of the world, so even though it is now five years since those people set off It took about an hour, but even the fastest vanguard had only traveled about half the distance—this was the result of their full effort at all costs!

"Understood, tell them, we will go along the high-speed direction to meet them."

Hearing Li Yu's words, Huang Chang replied with a slight sigh in his heart.

Now he didn't even dare to ask Li Yu about the casualties of the fleeing troops, because he knew that doing so would only make him feel worse.

However, there is a more troublesome thing in front of them now - it is almost dark!

Looking at his watch, it was now 3:30 in the afternoon, so even the fastest vanguard might not be able to arrive here before dark.

And once night falls, the danger for these people is even greater.

Therefore, within the scope of their ability, they can only continue to move forward, shorten the distance between them and each other, hoping to catch them before dark. And with their strength, even if there is any danger at night, they must be able to protect these survivors as much as possible.

But having said that, it is a blessing in misfortune for these survivors to escape from City C.

But just when Huang Chang led the people along the expressway for nearly two hours, when they were about to meet the vanguard, Li Yu's heavy voice suddenly sounded from the communicator, bringing Huang Chang and others a panic. a bad news!

"Oops, Brother Huang, the fleeing troops sent an emergency signal... That lord-level monster seems to have gotten rid of its entanglement, and is chasing and devouring them!"

Apparently, the lord-level monster whose good deed was destroyed by the Bodhi tree in Kaifu Temple was not willing to let the survivors he managed to raise in captivity just like that, and even left his own territory voluntarily, and began to follow these survivors to hunt and kill them up.

"Damn it!"

Hearing Li Yu's words, Huang Chang's expression changed suddenly.

He originally thought that lord-level creatures would not leave his territory easily, but now it seems that he guessed completely wrong!

But that's right, such powerful creatures often possess amazing intelligence. As long as they have needs and benefits, how can they be restricted by the word "territory"!

This is trouble!

The pursuit of this lord-level creature means that if Huang Chang and the others continue to go to meet them, they will very likely run into this lord-level creature, and it will definitely be another hard battle then!

But the problem is, he can't just ignore the tens of thousands of survivors who have defected, can he?

More importantly, who knows if the lord-level creature will follow the trend and continue to invade Lotus City after devouring these survivors!

"It's not that the lord-level creature has never been killed, I'm afraid of a woolen yarn!"

Thinking of this, Huang Chang's eyes narrowed, and he made a decision. He shouted in a deep voice, "Ten combat teams continue to move forward to meet the survivors. The rest of us will work with me to find a way to stop that lord-level creature!"

After finishing speaking, Huang Chang took the lead and jumped up, leaving the combat teams alone, and led the fallen and others who followed closely, and shot towards City C at the fastest speed!
