After wiping out the Outer Mongolian troops, Yue Zhong had obtained a huge amount of resources, and he made use of them to launch an assault on Hu Shih City.
The Big-headed Zombie did not engage with Yue Zhong, instead, it joined up with the rest of the zombies in Hu Shih City and continued to head northeast.
After absorbing the 3 million zombies in Hu Shih City, the Big-headed Zombie Commander's zombie horde was quickly replenished, reaching over 4 million.
Yue Zhong watched as the zombies headed northeast, and while he was worried, there was nothing he could do to stop them.
Yue Zhong could guess that the Big-headed Zombie Commander wanted to gather more zombies before coming for him. If the number of zombies exceeded 10 million, it would be a nightmare for humanity. This was what Yue Zhong was most worried about.
There were close to a billion zombies in China, if they were to gather, even a hundred million would be enough to crush Yue Zhong's army.
As the zombie horde retreated north, Yue Zhong recovered a number of counties, and many emaciated survivors were rescued by him.
Many survivors entered the cities and factories, and began to work.
Following the increase in population, other than the military factories, the rest of the industries such as steel, coal, clothing, etc, also resumed production.
The entire Central Plains began to return to the state of order before the apocalypse, and it was a scene of prosperity.
The Yin Shan Mountain Range stretched endlessly, and after the apocalypse, countless Mutant Plants and Mutant Beasts were everywhere. It was not a place for humans to survive.
Lei Yun, a middle-aged man with a haggard appearance and suntanned skin, was carefully searching for food on the ground. He was wearing clothes woven from grass, and his skin was tanned and yellow.
Lei Yun had been an expert in botany before the apocalypse, and after the apocalypse, he had followed a group of people to escape into the Yin Shan Mountain Range.
At the beginning of the apocalypse, the cities were filled with zombies, and the Mutant Beasts were extremely dangerous. Humans could still survive in the Yin Shan Mountain Range.
However, soon, the Yin Shan Mountain Range began to evolve, and the vegetation began to evolve into man-eating plants. Many of the plants that could be consumed by humans disappeared. Animals also evolved into Mutant Beasts that preyed on humans. The most frightening thing was that once the humans formed small groups, they would ride roughshod over the heads of the ordinary survivors. It was hard for ordinary people to survive. Lei Yun was one of the survivors who had escaped from a brutal small-scale colony.
Lei Yun's eyes suddenly lit up. He crouched on the ground and used his calloused hands to dig hard, digging out an edible wild herb.
After digging out the wild herb, Lei Yun looked at the dense grass around him and continued to look for edible food.
Although plants could be seen everywhere in the Yin Mountain Range, many Mutant Plants could not be used. Lei Yun had seen with his own eyes that some people who had consumed the Mutant Plants had their bodies explode, as countless vines burst out from their bodies. In addition, there were also people who immediately vomited three liters of blood after eating the mutated plants for a long time and became a corpse.
Lei Yun had relied on his knowledge of botany to find two or three types of wild vegetables that could be eaten by humans. As for the other unknown wild vegetables, he did not dare to eat them.
Just as Lei Yun lowered his head, a rustling sound came from the bushes beside him. His body stiffened, and he saw five militants dressed in thick grey clothes, each with a shield and a machete on their back, appearing in front of him.
"There's someone! Not bad! Seems like our group is pretty lucky! "A man with a scar on his face laughed savagely as he looked at Lei Yun.
When Lei Yun saw the 5 militants, his eyes flashed with despair, and he threw the wild herb in his hands aside, before turning around and fleeing.
Within the Yin Mountain Range, humans were even more terrifying than Mutant Beasts. They would capture ordinary people and use them as slaves, and after using them, they would eat them up like wild beasts.
There were Mutant Beasts and wild herbs in the Yin Mountain Range, but the Mutant Beasts were not something that ordinary survivors could deal with, and wild herbs were not something that could be found all the time. Compared to them, humans were the weakest creatures, and were also food.
The scarred man's face flashed with rage as he charged at Lei Yun, "Fuck, you dare run after seeing me, you're tired of living!!"
Lei Yun had eaten his fill and starved in the apocalypse, and his body was already suffering from hunger. He was not a match for the scarred man, and in a few steps, he was grabbed by the other party and pressed down on the ground.
Lei Yun was pressed to the ground, and he hurriedly cried out in fear, "Don't kill me! Don't kill me! I know which wild herbs can be used, please spare my life. I will help you find some edible herbs. "
The leader was a burly man, with deep eyes and a high nose, and a face as sharp as a knife. He frowned and said solemnly, "Tiger Head, don't use too much force. If you kill him, you'll lose your 5 contribution points. "
The scarred man released his grip and glared at Lei Yun, before getting up from Lei Yun's body, "Got it! Kid, don't run. What wild herbs, we don't care about them! If you run again, I, your father, will f * * king kill you even if I have to be punished by the higher-ups. "
The man with the deep eyes and high nose asked Lei Yun coldly, "Kid, what's your name?"
Lei Yun moved his body a little, before looking at the 5 of them carefully, "I'm called Lei Yun, and I was a botanist before the apocalypse. I know a lot of Mutant Plants, and can find 5 edible herbs. "
Xu Wei pulled out a chocolate bar and handed it to Lei Yun, "I'm called Xu Wei, a squad leader of the Scum Battalion's 3rd Battalion, 2nd Company, 3rd Platoon. I've received orders to come to the Yin Mountain Range to search for survivors. Lei Yun, do you know if there are any survivors nearby? "
When the scarred man heard Xu Wei's name, his face turned black, "Squad Leader! Can you not use your full name? The Scum Battalion is too humiliating. "
The other 3 militants also laughed bitterly.
Xu Wei's face turned cold, "It's the truth. Those who stay in the Scum Battalion, who isn't scum? If you want to get rid of this humiliating title, other than earning some merits and walking out, there's no other way. "
Lei Yun received the chocolate bar carefully, his eyes turning wet. If this was before the apocalypse, he would not even look at it. However, after the apocalypse, this chocolate bar was enough for a woman to sleep with him for a night.
Lei Yun resisted the urge to swallow the chocolate bar along with the packaging as he carefully sized up Xu Wei's group of five and said, "I know the situation of all the settlements within a hundred li of here."
Lei Yun pointed to a small hill, "On that hill, there's a faction called the Tiger's Head Camp. There's a leader, 5 thugs, and 13 women. The leader is called Nangong Tian Feng, and his weapon is a broadsword. The weapons used by the five thugs in his hands are thick wooden sticks. "
In the Yin Shan Mountain Range, it was considered an amazing thing for a small faction to have a weapon made of metal. After all, when they were fleeing, most of them would only have money on them.
Hearing this, one of the soldiers from the Scum Battalion exclaimed excitedly, "Squad Leader! 19 survivors! This way, we can get 95 achievement points! Adding on to our previous achievements, we can save a few more people, and we can leave the Scum Battalion and regain our freedom!! Squad Leader, let's do this!! "
Searching for survivors in the Yin Shan Mountain Range was a dangerous job, and the main focus was on these scum from the Scum Battalion. As long as they found a survivor, the soldiers of the Scum Battalion would be rewarded with 5 merit points. It was equivalent to killing 5 zombies. The ordinary scum of the Scum Battalion only needed 40 achievement points to regain their freedom, and this caused them to be filled with excitement.
He wasn't too worried about them escaping. The Yin Shan Mountain Range was filled with danger, and if they escaped, with their status as ordinary people, they would end up as food for the Mutant Beasts or nutrients for the Mutant Plants.
Although the Scum Battalion's training was intense, and they were specifically tasked with missions with high mortality rates, and when necessary, they had to serve as cannon fodder, and those who disobeyed orders would be executed, they were still well fed. In the Scum Battalion, they could fill their stomachs and eat meat from time to time. At the same time, when they went on missions to clear out the zombies, they could hand over a large amount of resources, and at the same time, they would be left behind. It was much better than being a stray dog in the wilderness.
At the same time, if the scum of the Scum Battalion were to escape, once they were caught, they would be executed, or sent to the laboratories to be used as test subjects. This caused all the scum of the Scum Battalion to be filled with hatred and fear towards Yue Zhong.
Xu Wei frowned and asked, "Are there any Enhancers on that hill?"
Lei Yun looked enviously at the blades and shields on Xu Wei and the rest, "Nope! That Nangong Tian Feng was just a gangster from a gang, and had learned some martial arts. He shouldn't be a match for you guys. "
Xu Wei's eyes flashed fiercely, "Good!! Brothers, follow me! Let's do this! "
The Tiger's Head Camp was actually just a huge cave, and at the entrance of the cave, there was a man holding a wooden stick, looking into the cave with a bored expression.
From within the cave, there were the sounds of women moaning.
"Do it!" Xu Wei carefully made his way to the entrance of the cave, and with a stride, he came in front of the man holding the wooden stick.
The moment the man saw Xu Wei holding the huge blade, his face turned pale and he immediately kneeled down, begging loudly, "Sir, spare me!! Spare me!! I surrender!! "
"So simple?" Scarface, who was following behind Xu Wei, was speechless when he saw the man kneeling down. (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com to vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
