Chapter 245 - 245 Scouting

245 Scouting

“What’s the situation?

“You’re just staring at each other, not working?” Wang Ran asked.

“Boss, it’s good that you’re here. I was just about to contact you.

“There’s a small situation here.”

Wu Jianguo looked troubled.

“Jianguo, let me do the talking. It’s my fault…

“Before, the zombies and humans have been working separately.

“It was not easy to hammer down the construction process into the regular zombies, but once their muscle memory kicked in, they did decent work.

“From the start of the project, they have not sighted many humans.

“The two sides have finally met today.

“The zombies behind me… are having trouble controlling themselves when they see so many human beings…”

Thirteen looked remorseful.

The Mutated Zombies had enough self-awareness to let it slide, but when the ten-thousand ordinary zombies saw so many human beings, they acted like starving dogs catching a whiff of roasted meat. It was hard for them to suppress their nature.

“I wanted to call for Xiaoyu’s help…

“Ah, right. This must be Momo, right? She should be able to suppress them.”

Thirteen could not meet Lin Momo’s eyes for long.

Her presence was stifling.

“Momo, it’s time for you to show off.”

Wang Ran rubbed Momo’s head.

“Mm! I’ll try!”

Lin Momo easily jumped over the wall and looked at the dark mass of zombies.

Lin Momo focused.

“Do your work well…

“Do your work well…

“Do your work well…”

Lin Momo tried her best to convey her thoughts to the zombies around her.

Those restless zombies suddenly quieted down.

Their eyes were dull, and their mouths opened and closed.

“Do your work well…”

All the zombies were mumbling the same thing.

Even the Mutated Zombies could not resist Lin Momo’s control.

Except for the red-eyed zombies, all others fell under Lin Momo’s control.

Tens of thousands of zombies mumbled the same words. The scene was quite eerie.

“F*ck, the hell is that?”

Even Wang Ran was shocked.

That was tens of thousands of zombies!

Even the golden-eyed zombies couldn’t resist Momo’s control. It was ridiculous.

“Boss, if she has gained this ability, do we still need a wall to deal with the tide of zombies?” Wu Jianguo asked a constructive question.

“I can’t. I feel like my range of control is only one kilometer.

I can only control so many zombies at a time. I can’t replace the entire wall,” Momo turned her head and said.

Wang Ran nodded.

Momo’s ability was indeed useful, but he couldn’t count on her completely.

“Alright, the zombies have been calmed down. Everyone, get to work as soon as possible.

“We don’t know when the zombies will reach us. The sooner we finish, the sooner we can be at ease,” Wang Ran spoke through a megaphone.

“Alright, boss, we’re on it!”

Wu Jianguo and Thirteen went to manage their own teams.

“Momo, I’ll have to trouble you to look after the place here.”

Wang Ran walked to Lin Momo’s side and whispered.

“I’m fine, Master. Right now, I’m full of energy!”

Lin Momo turned around and smiled sweetly.

She had eaten Wang Ran’s special cake and tormented Wang Ran for the entire night. In addition, she had just only powered up, so Lin Momo felt great.

She could even keep this up for a day or two.

Wang Ran nodded, bade Lin Momo farewell, and entered the helicopter.

“Jiaxin, head west.

“I want to see what we’re dealing with.”

Wang Ran leaned against the front passenger seat.

“We’ll probably have to turn back after 300 kilometers.

“That’s about as much fuel as we have,” Wu Jiaxin reminded him.

“Alright, let’s do that.”

Wang Ran nodded.

If he could get some information, it would be good. If not, he’ll just take it as sightseeing.

After all…

He had pampered Lin Momo alone last night. When he went back, he would…

The Black Hawk flew to the west.

An hour and a half later, they had covered the distance of 300 kilometers.

“Master, it’s about time for us to return,” Wu Jiaxin reminded him.

Wang rRan stood up, walked to the back, and opened the cabin door.

He had a feeling that these zombies were not far away…

“Jiaxin, let’s just push another 20 kilometers,” Wang Ran said in a deep voice.

Wu Jiaxin nodded and continued to push forward.

Not long after, Wang Ran’s eyes lit up.

To the west, there was a dust belt that extended for a few kilometers.

It was the dust kicked up by the massive horde.

“320 kilometers from N-City…”

Wang Ran frowned.

The zombies were advancing faster than expected.

By rough calculation, they could advance 100 kilometers a day.

In this case, they would reach N-City in three days.

Time was not on their side…

“Jiaxin, lower the altitude a little.”

Wang Ran wanted to take a closer look.

The Black Hawk descended to a height of 200 meters.

He could make out the individual zombies.

“F*ck, so many…”

Wang Ran felt a little uneasy.

Logically speaking, a portion should have headed north, so there shouldn’t be that many of them.

This was much more than Wang Ran had expected.

“Master, that’s terrifying. Is there any way to stop them halfway?”

Wu Jiaxin was also very worried.

“They’ll pass by a few cities on the way, but those cities shouldn’t be able to stop them.

“Maybe we can ask for more reinforcements from the surrounding cities…

“The path from here is basically flat plains and hills. Nothing can stop them.

“F*ck, we can only take it head on.

“The quality of our wall will determine our fate,” Wang Ran said in a deep voice.

If the wall fell, they would have to retreat to the island and blow up the bridge.

At most, Wang Ran could only rescue some of his close subordinates. As for the others…

He would not be able to save them.

Let’s hope that the wall can hold on…

At that moment, Wang Ran suddenly felt a dangerous gaze on him.

Wang Ran immediately looked in that direction.

In the middle of the zombie horde, a white-haired zombie was staring at Wang Ran.

“Is that their leader?

“Interesting…”

Wang Ran smiled.

He had not expected Zombie Monarchs to occur naturally just yet.

If it was a one-on-one fight, Wang Ran was confident that he could kill the other party.

However, there was a black mass of zombies below.

Even if he jumped down and killed the Monarch, he wouldn’t be able to leave this place alive.
