Chapter 102 Intrigue
As the temperature rose day by day, the survivors in the base also discovered this.
As for the base officials, they detected the temperature change as soon as it happened.
"Great, the temperature is finally rising."
"Woo woo woo, I've finally been waiting for this day."
The increasingly cold weather made the survivors gradually despair, and most of them survived until now by barely surviving.
Now, I finally see hope.
Expectation appeared on everyone's numb faces, and they were all hoping that the temperature would return to normal as soon as possible so that they could go out to search for supplies or complete tasks to support themselves.
The cold weather lasted for three full months, and the weather warmed up after three months.
At first the change in weather was not obvious, but as everyone felt the change in temperature, the rise in temperature suddenly became noticeable.
Normally, the temperature rises by four or five degrees a day, and sometimes it can even rise by ten degrees a day.
More than half a month later, the temperature outside returned to minus fifty degrees Celsius.
The temperature is still very low, but people can go out and move around without wearing constant temperature clothing.
Qiao Zhi had previously learned from the barrage that the movements of zombies would be affected in extremely cold weather. Although she wanted to take action to deal with the zombies, the road conditions outside were not suitable for travel.
There was several meters of snow that had not melted, and people could not move on it at all.
Moreover, she didn't know the exact location of the zombies, so even with the help of the RV, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
However, she did not hide the news and directly conveyed the news to the heads of major bases through the RV's system.
It also reminded them that a beast tide would occur after the temperature rose, so they should prepare early.
This news is undoubtedly very important to each base. At least they will not be caught off guard by the beast tide.
It's the zombies' restricted movements in the extreme cold that make them envious.
After all, zombies cannot move, but the psychics wearing constant temperature suits are not affected by the weather.
As soon as the news was received, the base decided to send people out to hunt zombies.
However, the team returned empty-handed as soon as they walked out of the base gate.
It's because the whole world is buried in snow now. Even if they work themselves to death, they probably won't be able to fish out the zombies from the snow.
"I'm so angry! We know that the zombies are at our mercy, but we are stuck in the base and can't leave." In a conference room at a base, a rough-looking man slammed the table.
Then, in full view of everyone, cracks slowly appeared on the tabletop, and then it collapsed with a loud bang.
Everyone: (each)
The man smiled awkwardly and said, "Sorry, I accidentally lost control."
Although other bases did not witness such dramatic events, the topics discussed were similar.
In the future base, the base’s leadership team gathered together to discuss whether to continue sending people out to search for zombies.
"I don't recommend sending anyone out. The snow is so thick outside that there's no way anyone can tell the direction once they go out."
At this time, the source of danger is not the zombies, but the thick layer of snow.
"But should we give up just like that? You know, with our current strength, if we don't take this opportunity to find and kill those zombies that escaped from the base, it will be difficult to deal with them later." said a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties wearing a military uniform.
He is an official psychic and also the superior of Li Heng and others.
As a member of the combat team, he is the one who best understands the threat posed by those zombies.
"Everyone knows those zombies are tough to deal with, but the situation outside doesn't allow us to travel right now," the man to his left retorted. He was also wearing a military uniform, and was of the same rank as the middle-aged man.
He was well aware of the threat posed by the intelligent zombie. He had participated in the battle at that time, but unfortunately he was no match for the zombie.
If there was a chance to kill that zombie, he would definitely do it.
But the situation outside is not good now. If we send people out at this time, it would be irresponsible to the soldiers.
There is absolutely no way he would joke about the lives of the soldiers!
The atmosphere in the conference room was heavy and depressing.
The shadow cast by that intelligent zombie was too great for everyone, and they were really worried that it would come back one day in the future.
A middle-aged fat man sitting to the left of the base leader rolled his eyes and offered his suggestions considerately.
"Although the outside is covered in snow, psychics have special abilities, so the snow is not a problem for them. I think the most urgent thing is to send people out to search for the traces of the intelligent zombie as soon as possible."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a roar: "Bullshit, I know exactly what's going on outside, don't even think about sending my soldiers to their deaths!"
"Yes, I'm warning you. If you have any little thoughts, please restrain them. Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude!"
The two middle-aged men in military uniforms who had just been at odds with each other immediately stood on the same front when faced with this problem.
Damn it, if the current situation didn’t allow it, they wouldn’t cooperate with these people.
The future base is composed of military and political parties, which belong to different systems.
After the end of the world, they cooperated with each other in order to cope with it and eliminate more survivors.
However, the person in charge of issuing various orders in the base is from the government. After all, they have a mass base, are more familiar with the surrounding situation, and can carry out their work better.
However, the government is not united.
There were all kinds of intrigues before the end of the world, and it was even more so after the end of the world.
The military looked down upon their behavior, but the other party had control of food and other supplies, so even if they didn't like it, they had to cooperate.
But no matter what, their soldiers are not pawns in the intrigues of these people.
The two men didn't give the second-in-command of the base any face at all. After scolding him, they pushed the door and left the meeting room.
Qiao Zhi was completely unaware of this.
The various intrigues in the base have nothing to do with her. If it affects her, she will run away immediately.
The rising temperature is something to be happy about. Now that the temperature is warm enough, Qiao Zhi and Lu Hanchuan invited the team members to come to their home for a gathering.
Since everyone knew each other well, there was no formality and they just started eating and drinking happily.
Only after they had eaten and drunk their fill did they begin to discuss the next arrangements.
Seeing that the temperature is rising, it is estimated that it will not be long before the snow outside melts, and then they will officially start their mission.
"I wonder what kind of missions the base will issue then?"
"It should still be collecting supplies or something like that."
There is never too much supplies, especially during the months of extreme cold weather, when the base was completely depleted.
There is no way. In this kind of weather, crops are frozen to death and even mutant plants have stopped growing.
