State of Decay - Chapter 42

[Chapter 42 Attrition]
There are two bangs, and a burst of flames rushes from the door of the church. Everyone is thinking for a while? What exploded? In the next second, everyone came to their senses: the motorcycle and the car were blown up. After the car is 100% damaged, there will be a 5-second countdown. At the end of 5 seconds, if there is gasoline in the car, it will explode.
The poor car was thrown into the parking space outside the church gate alone, and was caught and exploded by zombies abruptly.
The car explosion caused a collective distraction, and the rear door bunker was high, with no lights, not even candles. A Boomang tripped over an obstacle without making a sound. After falling to the ground, the Boomang exploded, and the poisonous gas swept across. Maya retreated immediately, and Tangtang, who was able to escape the poisonous fog, was knocked down by a zombie. After finally breaking free from the poisonous fog, he found that his life had bottomed out, and he continued to lose blood due to the poisoning.
Maya said: “Go to the hospital bed and lie down quickly.” As long as you don’t die, you can be saved, and you won’t lose blood after lying on the bed, bleeding and poisoning.
Tangtang immediately ran into the infirmary and threw herself on the bed. It happened that a zombie broke through the window, Tangtang stood on the bed and killed the zombie with a shotgun.
After the beating, Tangtang looked at her state and was shocked: “Maya, I’m still losing blood, and I still have 5 points of blood.” “
What? Impossible.” Maya hurried to the door of the infirmary: “Why?” “
No I know, I’m going to die.” When he said that he was going to die, Tangtang was not vague at all, and immediately fell on the bed.
Maya inexplicably saw a lump on the bedside, walked over and pulled it away to see that it was Su Shi wrapped in a quilt. Now Maya understood the cause of Tangtang’s death. The hospital bed was originally used by Lin Wu, but after Lin Wu left, the system determined that Su Shi on the bed was using the hospital bed. Tangtang was nervous and didn’t notice this situation, which eventually led to Tangtang’s death.
Stone said sadly: “My… Tangtang.” My gardening! The base only has agronomy skills, and it is expected to vigorously develop agriculture after hydropower is connected in the future. Even if Tangtang finds her way home after her death, her skills will be formatted. Missing this, Shitou’s heart hurts so much that he can’t breathe. Of course, Stone also mourned the downsizing of the base, the death of Tangtang, and the loss of gardening.
Triple grief, heart bleeding.
…
It was time for the siege, and after cleaning up the remaining zombies, Maya arranged for people to go to hospital beds. Stone cleared the ruins and rebuilt the barracks. The others all sat at the campfire and watched the campfire quietly. Not far from the bonfire are barracks and gardens destroyed by zombies.
Unlike Cotton, Tangtang has been with everyone for a long time. Although there are no bright spots, there are no dark spots either. Such a sudden death makes everyone feel down. Stone took a pot of potatoes to the backyard, put the pot on the fire and cooked the potatoes. This was the only way he could think of to boost morale by not painting cakes.
Maya then came to the bonfire, sat on a handmade bench, looked at everyone and said, “I made a serious mistake in defending the city today. I shouldn’t let the stone use the sand eagle. Although I don’t know that the sand eagle has a recoil buffer time, but I It is our responsibility to know all our weapons in advance. The death of Tangtang is a blow to the base and everyone. Dangers are everywhere in this world…” Su Shi stood up and interrupted
Maya, Su Shi said: “My Wrong, I’m sorry everyone, I’m sorry Tangtang.”
“A meeting to admit mistakes?” Shitou said: “From my personal point of view, the defense of the city was very successful. Tangtang’s death was an accident. We can stop the zombies, but we can’t avoid it. Accidents happen. Especially in games, no one knows which will come first, the accident or tomorrow.”
Everyone nodded, agreeing with Shitou’s opinion.
Maya said: “Starting tomorrow, we will start to clean up apartment buildings 1, 3, 4, and 5. From the current point of view, the blood epidemic in Building 2 is not something we can deal with now. Lin Wu, I will not arrange tasks for you on the night shift.” It is no longer possible to arrange death missions for Lin Wu. If Lin Wu dies in the near future due to the missions he dispatched, it will greatly impact the morale of the base.
Lin Wu nodded: “Yeah.”
Shitou asked: “Su Shi, are you short of materials for production?”
Su Shi knew that Stone deliberately gave himself a topic: “Basic garbage such as plastic, wires, metal, wood boards, etc., in addition to rags, pine oil is used to make torches. If I can get empty large oil drums, I can make several systems The bonfire outside makes the whole base brighter at night. The snacks in the warehouse have been exhausted. Although the stamina is not increased and the life recovered is not much, but it is better than nothing. If you meet it, you can take it home.” Stone nodded
: “I’ve made a note. From tomorrow onwards, I will release trading information on the radio. On the one hand, I can replenish supplies, and on the other hand, I can find new members of the base. Maya just mentioned Lin Wu, and I think Lin Wu should be paired with a companion for night activities. Maya
shook her head: “As far as the base is concerned, there is no suitable partner for Lin Wu. The most basic requirement is to run fast and not lag behind. Therefore, this person must be sensitive, and the secondary attribute can be will or physical strength.” Will is currently one The obvious effect is that the lower the stamina is, the lower the stamina consumption will be. However, there is an upper limit threshold. Due to different ideas and secondary intentions, the stamina consumption will be reduced by up to 30-50%.
Lin Wu said: “I don’t need a partner.”
Shitou replied: “A partner can at least tell us how you died.”
“Cut.” Lin Wu raised his head disdainfully: “I’m not bragging, just the mutant zombies known so far In terms of… night demons are more troublesome.” Lin Wu originally wanted to say that he could deal with all known zombies. But Nightmare is an exception. Although the night devil’s attack power and speed are not as fierce as Kuang Fu, and it does not have the super stealth ability of the blind bat, but the night devil has combined the strengths of the two, has a certain stealth ability, and has a certain speed and attack power. At the same time, night devils have a characteristic of their own, that is, quantity. Encounter night goblins at night, you have no idea how many night goblins are in the area. Instead of swarming up when they meet players, they spread out to sneak attack.
Seeing Lin Wu deflated, Shitou couldn’t help laughing: Can’t it?
“Horse Soul, are these potatoes edible?” Lin Wu moved the battlefield.
Ma Hun glanced at it in disgust, stood up and took the whole pot of potatoes.
Stone was dissatisfied: “What do you mean? Can’t you eat it? Let me tell you, you can eat poop after it’s cooked.”
“Cut!”
Ma Hun left a meaningful look, went to the warehouse to get a kitchen knife, and used the safe as a table to cut potatoes into pieces. Take mineral water and salt and pour it into a basin and hand it to the backyard: After the water boils, put potatoes. I went back to the warehouse to apply for the condiments and made a big pot of sauce. When he finished his work and went to the backyard, the potatoes were almost cooked.
Eating potato wedges with dipping sauce, everyone praised Ma Hun’s cooking skills. Stone knew that everyone’s morale was still relatively low, and they hadn’t gotten over the influence of Tangtang’s death. But Shitou also knows that everyone is trying to adjust a more positive attitude, the purpose is not to affect the mood of others.
Shi Shi thinks that the members of the base have good personalities. He wanted to discuss with Maya rather than take risks, but he knew that this was impossible. He believed Maya didn’t want people to die either.
Since Mahun’s culinary skills are appreciated by everyone, the base decided to have dinner at 8:00 every night. In addition to collecting living supplies, field personnel also search for condiments, various meats, eggs, vegetables and other foods. From this point of view, Sugon is still relatively humane, and there is no shelf life for items outside the system.
Everyone chatted and ate potatoes, and Lin Wu went to the warehouse. After a while, Stone with a potato in his mouth asked: “Lin Wu applied for a treasure chest? What treasure chest? Where did you get the treasure chest?”
