"...This is Jiangcheng City Gathering Radio Station, FM 888. We are a survivor gathering place established by the state. Currently, there are more than 58,000 survivors gathered, and the number is still rising steadily. So friends, no matter who hears this broadcast, you can regard it as a gift from God, because Because whether you are alone or traveling with a group, you can choose to come to us. There is no fear, no hunger, only the warmth of heaven. We will provide you with the safest house, steaming food, and family-like care for free. The survivors' gathering place in Jiangcheng City will be your warmest home address. Please remember..."
While everyone was bragging around the car in boredom, Bingbing, who had been tinkering in the car for a long time, finally turned on the Cheetah's stereo, but instead of melodious music coming from the car, it was a long-lost radio recording. The voice of the female host on the radio was gentle and soothing, and her pronunciation and pronunciation were very standard. For a moment, everyone was stunned, and they all looked at the Cheetah car in the middle, with huge brilliance in their eyes.
"Thomas Xu..." Jack frowned after hearing the recording and asked doubtfully, "The address mentioned on the radio seems to be your gathering place, right? How can you say there are more than 50,000 people?"
"Cut it out! Don't listen to that woman rambling on the radio!" Thomas casually tossed a peanut into his mouth and waved his hand dismissively, saying, "What safe houses, what warm homes? It's all a bunch of lies! Our people can barely feed themselves, let alone have the time to help others!"
"Ah? Is it actually a lie? But what good will it do to the survivors to lie to them?" Bai Ru leaned against the car and held Jack's arm, looking at Thomas Xu in confusion.
"The benefits are not necessarily many, but it's just a trick thought up by some idle guys. They accidentally found a working radio station, so they asked a girl who was originally a radio DJ to record a segment. As for the original intention, you should know if you think about it, if there are survivors there, if there is food, they will eat it. If there is no food, they will be forced to do hard work. Repairing walls, carrying dung, and burying mutilated corpses all have to be done by someone. It will be easier if the person who comes is a beautiful woman. She will be dragged directly to our auction stage. Whoever provides the most resources will get the woman." Thomas Xu peeled off another peanut shell and threw it into his mouth, shrugging expressionlessly.
"Alas, human beings have reached this point but are still killing each other." Bai Ru shook his head sadly after hearing this, and then asked, "Are there many people who have been fooled by them?"
"It's quite a few, there must be as many as four or five hundred people." Thomas Xu raised his eyebrows, thought for a while and then continued, "But this broadcast has actually been stopped for several months. I don't know why it is being broadcast again now, because the survivors who escaped are completely exhausted. There is no profit, even the women who were bought at a high price can only play but not eat, and as long as they are alive, they are just a mouth to eat, so more people will increase the burden on the gathering place, and this false broadcast will naturally stop."
"It will be harder and harder to find food in the future. Eating without growing food is not an option at all," Jack said irritably, his eyebrows deeply knitted together.
"Who wouldn't say it? The weather is dry everywhere now. Basically, everything you plant will die. Although I heard that there will be less sand in Marcus if you go north, and there will be water and some green plants. But if there is less sand in Marcus, there will naturally be more living corpses. And I also heard that there will be frequent outbreaks there. What kind of corpse tide, hundreds of thousands or even millions of living corpses gathered together and rushed forward. No matter where they went, there was no grass. It was really confusing. There were few living corpses in bad places, but there were many living corpses in good places. It was really killing me." Thomas Xu crunched a few peanuts and shook his head with great melancholy.
"What? Do you also know about the corpse tide?" Jack raised his head and looked at Thomas Xu in the car in surprise.
"Of course I have. We have several lucky ones who have experienced small-scale zombie influxes and escaped. And in order to prevent those living corpses that gather together from coming to us, the walls of our gathering place are not low." Thomas Xu opened his eyes wide and said with surprise.
"If there is a zombie tide of tens of thousands of living corpses, the wall may be able to block it, but once the scale reaches six or seven figures..." Jack shook his head gently, looked at Thomas Xu and said slowly, "Even the Great Wall can't stop it."
"Then Brother Lin...will there be a zombie wave near our Jiangcheng area?" Thomas Xu had stopped eating peanuts and looked at Jack with some anxiety.
"This Jiangcheng is almost a wall away from Nanjing, and there are several large cities nearby, adding up to at least tens of millions of people. It's fortunate that there isn't a zombie tide; if one forms, it would definitely be catastrophic, and it might be hard to escape!" Jack said with a serious tone.
"Honey, why would a zombie tide form? It feels like someone is orchestrating it!" Bai Ru, holding onto Jack, asked with great concern.
"Do you remember that zombie William we encountered before, the one covered in eyes?"
Seeing Bai Ru nodding in fear, Jack continued, "That zombie William mutated because it came into direct contact with the source of infection, but it hasn't evolved to a higher level yet. As long as it devours another zombie William with similar abilities, it will transform into something we call a zombie demon. Zombie demons possess a certain level of intelligence; at the very least, they can gather hundreds of thousands of living corpses to hunt, because no matter how much the living corpses evolve, their instinctual desire remains the same: to hunt living animals!"
"Wow, living corpses can mutate and evolve? Does that mean we humans won't survive?" Thomas Xu exclaimed with a grim expression, then asked eagerly, "Brother Lin, what about that vengeful woman you mentioned last time? What will she evolve into? Can she also summon tens of thousands of men?"
"We named it the Zombie Emperor!" Jack chuckled and said, "But I've never seen it; those who have are basically dead. If tens of millions of living corpses surge together, unless we drop a nuclear bullet, there's no way for humanity to survive!"
Thomas Xu instinctively swallowed hard, his expression complex as he asked, "Then what about that vengeful woman you told me about last time? What will she evolve into? Can she also summon tens of thousands of men?"
"I hope we never encounter that kind of thing in our lifetime. Although it won't gather other living corpses after evolving, it becomes something even more terrifying than a zombie demon!" Jack said with a bitter smile. "The vengeful woman should evolve into a living corpse version of William. If she doesn't move, you can't tell her apart from a normal human, and she possesses intelligence comparable to humans. It's said that once she goes on a rampage, she can easily wipe out hundreds of thousands of living corpses, let alone us humans!"
"Wow~ that's so powerful?" Thomas Xu said in disbelief, his eyes wide open as he shook his head. "Then I'd better pray to the Buddha to avoid encountering them!"
