The most ruthless person in the apocalypse

Chapter 771: Not in the Camp

In the wilderness, four cars and eight people were smoking and chatting, waiting for the zombie horde in the distance to slowly pass by. This wait lasted for more than an hour!

The huge horde of corpses moved very slowly.

The originally chosen position was at the back of the zombie horde. Even so, it still took seventy or eighty minutes for the large group to finally pass by the electromagnetic circle, leaving a group of zombies circling in place.

What is different from before is that originally the zombies were passing by the electromagnetic circle, but due to various crowds and falls, the zombies that remained in place have now surrounded the electromagnetic circle. In other words, the number of zombies affected by an electromagnetic circle can be reflected very intuitively.

"OK, Luezi, let the plane go, don't get too close, watch out for that."

What is that?

Everyone was confused, but no one asked.

Wu Lue naturally understood that the distance could not be too close, as he had to consider the possibility of the ice zombies attacking the drone. This drone was less accelerated than the previous one, and if it was really attacked, it might be difficult to dodge, so he needed to be extra careful.

The drone took off. Zhang Su looked at the screen and compared the huge group of zombies with the zombies remaining at the edge of the electromagnetic circle to get an approximate value.

"There are 20,000 to 30,000 zombies left near the electromagnetic circle. This means that to trap all of them, at least 20 electromagnetic circles are needed, or 30 to be safe!"

The effect is best when it is alone. As the number increases, the number of zombies affected will decrease, unless all the zombies are separated, but that would require a lot of generators.

If only one large electromagnetic array is used, the area that needs to be covered will be very large.

"The materials are not a problem. We can still make it. It's just that..."

Zhou Haotian quickly raised his hand after hearing Zhang Su's words, and then said with a troubled expression: "It's just that there are some difficulties in power supply. We need a generator with sufficient output power!"

“Energy is the biggest problem…”

The electromagnetic field determined the effect, but the energy aspect could not keep up. At the beginning, Zhang Su's idea was to build a thermal generator and use the properties of black crystals to amplify flames. A kerosene lamp could generate electricity for several days.

But he thought again, this wouldn't work!

If there is a thermal power generator in the camp, then there will be no problem in putting black crystals into the generator to amplify the flame.

How could they place the black crystal outside the camp? It wouldn't be reliable to arrange for someone to guard it. Could they lure the zombies to the vicinity of Tianma Island and then set up an electromagnetic array? None of these would work...

We can only arrange gasoline and diesel generators!

As for the energy consumption, the specific consumption will only be known after the electromagnetic array is completed.

"Well, give me another week and I will complete the task!"

Jia Shiqin knew that the key now fell on him, but it was really difficult to assemble a thermal power generator that met the requirements. Not only were the parts difficult to find, but debugging was also difficult.

"Don't wait a week. Let Lao Tan take people to the development zone this afternoon. Lao Jia, you lead the way and go to the city to bring back those generators you mentioned earlier!"

Zhang Su decided not to delay any longer. He remembered Jia Shiqin saying that some residential areas and large factories in Qincheng had purchased million-watt generators. They had not been able to get the equipment back due to various reasons. Now they could not delay any longer!

"But...Brother Zhang, although those generators rely on fire to generate electricity in the end, the energy they use to propel them is fuel oil!"

Jia Shiqin spread his hands. That kind of generator couldn't be powered by fire directly, and it was nonsense to talk about modifying it.

Zhang Su shrugged and said, "Let's just use the fuel. There's still a lot of fuel in the city. Let's use it first. After that, we can slowly think of a solution!"

If things cannot be solved all at once, then complete them in stages. Don't just think about doing it all at once.

"Row!"

Jia Shiqin agreed readily. He was an electrician, not a technician, and it was a bit too much for him to assemble and modify the generator. Now that he had an alternative plan, he felt relieved.

"Um, Brother Su, are the things still being recycled?"

Seeing that everyone seemed to be preparing to go back home, Liu Tianji pointed in the direction of the corpse group and asked.

"There's no need to recycle the stuff, but we need to capture some zombies and bring them back! Xiao Liu, Qiu Hui, I'll have to trouble you two for a visit."

As Zhang Su spoke, he walked to the trunk and took out two explosion-proof forks that were specially used to catch zombies.

"It's just a small matter, hehe! How much does it cost?"

Liu Tianji and Qiu Hui took over the equipment. They had lived in Cui Lengxuan for a while and knew that they often had to use living zombies for experiments. However, the zombie inventory had not been replenished in recent times and had been exhausted...

"You can put them in the box. Twenty is not too few, and thirty is not too many."

Zhang Su knocked on the cargo box with his knuckles.

"Let's go and catch the zombies!"

Liu Tianji was in high spirits. The feeling of entering and leaving the zombies as if they were in an empty space made him very happy. He drove the truck to a place about fifty or sixty meters away from the zombies and parked it. He was not afraid of attracting their attention, but he was mainly worried that the strong electromagnetic field would affect the car.

Originally, the task of capturing zombies was full of risks. Even the most experienced fighters had to be extremely careful. Even if Zhang Su took action personally, the efficiency would not be very high. But now everything is different!
Liu Tianji walked forward confidently, thrust a fork at the zombie, then pressed the switch. With a snap, the iron hoop wrapped around the zombie and he dragged it away. The zombie was quiet and didn't even resist.

Qiu Hui was a little worried at first, but after trying it twice, she was completely relieved.

If catching zombies in the past was like an old farmer bending over and using a sickle to cut wheat, now it has become a combine harvester!

"My goodness, Xiao Liu and Xiao Qiu, this is easier than trapping a pig in a pigpen!"

Jia Shiqin looked at the two people busying around in the distance and expressed his feelings with a strange expression.

In twenty minutes, the two captured a total of thirty-three zombies. Not only was their efficiency amazing, but there was also no risk at all.

bang bang bang...

Awoo, awoo!
When the van returned to the crowd, without the interference of the strong magnetic field, the zombies immediately returned to normal, making all kinds of strange noises in the cargo box, and some zombies violently slapped the iron wall.

"Hey, I wanted to catch a big guy, but this size is a little small and I can't hold it."

Liu Tianji jumped out of the car and waved the explosion-proof fork with a smile on his face.

"Luckily we didn't catch the big guy. This iron box wouldn't be able to withstand a punch from the big guy... You two are simply the chosen ones to catch zombies. Let's go back to the camp!"

Zhang Su praised them a lot, then waved his hand and everyone returned to the car.

On the return trip, we could have skipped Honggou Village and taken another road, which would have been nearly ten kilometers longer.

Zhang Su walked around again and looked under the signpost of the Yunlong Valley scenic area, but still did not find any trace of good luck or lightning, so he had to continue walking back.

"Hello, Xiaoshan."

When the car arrived in Qing County and the communication signal was guaranteed, Zhang Su took out the walkie-talkie to contact the camp.

"Yes, Brother Su, what's wrong?"

Zhong Xiaoshan responded quickly. She carried the emergency contact intercom with her and would give it to Zheng Xinyu if she fell asleep. The two of them almost never slept at the same time.

"Are Luck and Lightning in camp?"

Zhang Su asked in a deep voice, feeling irritated.

Zhong Xiaoshan was in the warehouse with several team members sorting and counting the huge amount of supplies brought back from the south. Her heart skipped a beat when she heard Zhang Su's question.

She heard Zheng Xinyu mention that Lightning took Good Luck to Shanhai District to get supplies, but now Zhang Su is looking for the two little guys. This is not right!
As he walked out of the warehouse, he said, "Wait a minute, let me take a look!"

Zhong Xiaoshan did not dare to delay and immediately called everyone in the camp and shouted loudly everywhere in Tianma Island.

"good luck……"

"good luck!"

"Good luck, your mother is calling you home for dinner!"

In the past, I only had to shout out loudly like this a few times, and good luck would appear in the camp within a minute, as if it had accomplished its mission and had never been absent. But today it did not appear.

Everyone looked at each other. Zhong Xiaoshan frowned and reported immediately, "Brother Su, Good Luck is not in the camp, and Lightning should not be here either!"

"Not here..."

This answer made Zhang Su extremely anxious. After such a long time since the disaster, none of his brothers had been lost or missing. He didn't expect that the first time such an accident happened was to the awakened animals Good Luck and Lightning!
The two little guys are top-notch in terms of their five senses and physical fitness.
