The most ruthless person in the apocalypse

Chapter 1023 The Reason for the Bizarre

Zhang Su listened silently without voicing any questions.

He didn't understand the internal structure of an aircraft carrier, but he could imagine how crowded more than four thousand people would be in such a confined environment—the worst-case scenario!
Don't think that just because you have a little space to survive, you can live. When disaster strikes everyone equally, the darkness of humanity will erupt. At that time, the enemy you face will no longer be terrifying zombies, but also your own kind.

This is the result in densely populated areas such as schools, barracks, and factory dormitories, and even the magnificent aircraft carrier is no exception!

"In less than two days, the number of survivors plummeted from over 4,300 to 45, a survival rate of one percent. This aligns with the scenario of a zombie outbreak in a densely populated area. So... what does this have to do with the fact that the two of them appeared on the island in Qinhai Bay?"

Zhang Su asked in confusion, and after a long explanation, he only described the tragic situation on the aircraft carrier.

"That's how it is... Even with only forty-five people left, there was still no turning point. After several twists and turns, various conflicts and contradictions broke out, some with zombies and some between people. Three months later, the number finally settled at seventeen!"

Then, under prolonged pressure and confinement, well… their thoughts and behaviors began to become distorted. White and McCree, unwilling to attend the men's wild party, were thrown overboard from the aircraft carrier. They were given some food and a kayak, and after three days of paddling at sea, they finally reached the island.

After Fu Weijun finished speaking, he spread his hands with a strange expression, looking somewhat disgusted and repulsed.

Zhang Su didn't understand what a crazy party for men was until he saw Liu Lingping and Fu Weijun's constipated expressions. He instantly understood. Sure enough, Da Piao Liang knew how to have fun. This was even more perverted than Rice Ball!
After Fu Weijun finished speaking, Liu Lingping added, "I asked him why he didn't go directly to land, and he told me two reasons: he was worried that the disaster on land would be too severe, and their kayak was torn by the ice floes..."

"Okay, so now the most important question is, where is that aircraft carrier?"

Zhang Su admired the choice that White and McCree made to protect him. If he were in that situation... he would find a way to kill the other fifteen people!

The battle to protect chrysanthemums has a truly bizarre reason.

"Oh, right, I forgot to mention earlier that the mothership sailed for about forty hours after it started up, but it stopped because no one was in charge of it. Subsequently, the reactor also entered safety mode because no one was in charge of it."

Aircraft carrier navigation is complex, and the surviving crew was unable to initiate navigation, so the carrier drifted in Qinhai Bay, about 100 nautical miles from here, according to White, though he wasn't entirely sure.

"McRay gave a more specific location. After they left the aircraft carrier, they were basically rowing north, while the aircraft carrier was located to the south. Combining this with Dr. Fu's information, the aircraft carrier should be located in the south-central part of the Qin Hai Sea, relatively close to the Shandong Peninsula."

Based on her geographical knowledge, Liu Lingping offered a reasonable conjecture.

"One hundred nautical miles, and one nautical mile is 1,600 meters?"

"No, Mr. Zhang, you're talking about miles. A nautical mile is more than 1,800 meters!"

Fu Weijun corrected Zhang Su's mistake.

"Hmm... that means the aircraft carrier is about two hundred kilometers away at sea. Come on, come with me, I want to ask them a few more questions!"

Zhang Su beckoned Fu Weijun and Liu Lingping back to the helicopter.

"How is...Where From?"

"Are you okay?"

Zhao Dezhu and others were talking to the two soldiers in broken English. Judging from the soldiers' awkward smiles, the communication was very costly.

"Come on, everyone stop playing around, I have something important to ask. Dr. Fu, please help with the translation."

Zhang Su waved his hand, both amused and exasperated, and walked over to whoever it was, either White or McCree. He opened the offline map on his phone, zoomed in on the Qin Hai area, and pointed to a spot, saying, "We're here, is the aircraft carrier here?" Fu Weijun translated as requested, and then translated the soldier's words to Zhang Su, saying, "He can only confirm that the aircraft carrier was in that area when they left."

This answer was uncertain, but it was also reliable. Zhang Su thought for a moment and then asked, "You lived on the aircraft carrier for several months without any other survivors finding you?"

“Occasionally, ships would pass by in the distance, but no contact occurred, and it was impossible to determine whether they had been discovered…” translated by Fu Weijun.

Zhang Su stroked his chin. Given the situation in Qinhai Bay, which is surrounded by cities of the Celestial Empire on three sides, it's normal for ships to be sailing at sea in the early stages of the disaster. Someone must have discovered that big guy, but they may lack the power to do so.

Based on the survivors in Qincheng, they have some basic land weapons, which are barely enough to deal with zombies, but who would dare to cause trouble for an aircraft carrier!
How many carrier-based aircraft are on the aircraft carrier?

For Tianma Island now, the two most valuable things on the aircraft carrier are the well-equipped carrier-based aircraft and the nuclear reactor!

Compared to nuclear reactors, which perhaps no one can fully understand at present, carrier-based aircraft are of greater value, even though no one can fly them...

The person being questioned was White, who happened to be in charge of the maintenance of carrier-based aircraft and was quite familiar with this issue. He rattled off a string of questions.

"He said that the mission to the plastic surgery clinic was not of a high level, so the carrier-based aircraft were only at 60% of full capacity. Among them, um... say it again, slowly, I'll translate it one by one!"

White rattled off a long list of codenames, such as "F/A, EA, E-2," which were completely unfamiliar to Fu Weijun.

After repeating the process several times, Zhang Su obtained a definitive answer.

The fleet includes 25 carrier-based fighter jets, 3 carrier-based electronic warfare aircraft, 3 fixed-wing early warning aircraft, 2 fixed-wing transport aircraft, 7 anti-submarine helicopters, and 5 multi-purpose helicopters.

"Twenty-five, three, three... Damn, Brother Su, if we can control this power, then... Tianma Island will be the king of the northern plains, and the Creation Society and the Righteous Path Society will all have to step aside!"

Wu Baokang's eyes gleamed.

"You're thinking really far ahead. Let's not even talk about whether we can take down the aircraft carrier. Do we even have fighter pilots at the camp? Are you capable? Dr. Liu, what about you?"

Zhang Su looked at the two of them with a complicated expression. "Are you playing a game here? Left-click to select a box, right-click to select a spot, and you're calling for a fighter jet formation to take off, huh?"
"That's a lie... Hey, I can't do it."

"Neither can I."

The two waved their hands decisively, saying that transport helicopters and carrier-based fighter jets are too different and the difficulty is not even on the same level. If the most difficult part is rated out of 10, transport helicopters would be at most 3 points, while the difficulty of piloting carrier-based fighter jets is as high as 8 to 9 points!

If you were to pilot a carrier-based fighter jet in combat, the difficulty of controlling it would be off the charts...

Zhang Su shrugged, looked at White again, and said, "Dr. Fu, ask him what the people on the aircraft carrier would think if we used helicopters to scout the carrier."

This question piqued everyone's interest, and everyone was waiting for the other person's answer. They thought it could be summarized in just a couple of sentences, but the other person rambled on for three minutes!

After communicating with the other party, Fu Weijun waved his hand with a surprised expression: "He said that there are six different types of air defense radar systems on the aircraft carrier. Not to mention helicopters, even drones will be detected if they get close. The nuclear reactor provides power, and as long as it doesn't break down, it can be used indefinitely!"

An approaching aerial target has been detected. There are five different types of anti-aircraft missile systems. Unless the people on the aircraft carrier don't want it, they can simply press the launch button. Given the maneuverability of the transport helicopters, there's no way they can evade it!
