Wasteland Commander

Chapter 7 Rise to the Star

 Ye Fan and Wang Hu were in the corridor watching the zombies eating below.

 Ye Fan discovered that one of the tall male zombies ate very quickly.

Other zombies were unable to grab it, and they continuously devoured a large amount of flesh and blood, making this zombie's eyes become increasingly red.

Ye Fan felt a little uneasy: "This zombie looks a bit strong?"

Wang Hu also stared at the male zombie and said, "Sir, this zombie is stronger than the other zombies."

After careful inspection, it is true that during the fight, this zombie could push the female zombie away by waving its claws, and even swept an old lady zombie into a rolling gourd. It was obviously much stronger.

“Living zombies will not kill each other, but they will eat their dead companions. This is good, at least it reduces pollution, but eating more may make you stronger.”

Ye Fan doesn't know if zombies will evolve, but this male zombie obviously has some signs of it. The skin on his body is slightly darker than the others, which is a little different.

 “We can’t let him develop, Wang Hu, can you kill him?”

 “It should be possible, but you may need to shoot.”

Ye Fan looked around the community and realized that shooting would attract a lot of zombies. When he was hesitating, gunfire suddenly came from a distance.

 It seems that on the other side of the street, there is the roar of cars and the sound of gunshots.

Although the gunshots were not intensive, they sounded frequently.

 It is obvious that some survivors want to break out of this area.

Ye Fan's place is not considered an urban area, but is on the outskirts of the city. It is not impossible to rush out.

The sound of gunshots caused agitation among the nearby zombies. Ye Fan saw zombies running towards the direction of the gunshots on the street in the distance.

Only the zombies in the community yard were still eating and were not attracted by the gunfire.

About a few minutes later, a huge explosion came from the street in the distance, and then the gunfire died down.

 The sound attracted more zombies, which allowed Ye Fan to see an opportunity.

“Wang Hu, it should be no problem to shoot now, the zombies have gone over there.”

Wang Hu immediately stretched out the barrel of the gun from the corridor window on the second floor.

The zombies are only about ten meters away from them. At this distance, Ye Fan is confident that Wang Hu will not miss.

 “Bang~~!”

The Type 56 gun sprayed out a tongue of flame and knocked down a eating zombie with one shot!

The huge lethality directly exploded the zombie's head like a rotten watermelon, and the scene was extremely shocking.

 “Good marksmanship!” Ye Fan was very happy.

Wang Hu turned back slightly embarrassed: "I originally wanted to fight that big zombie."

 Ye Fan: “….”

 “It was a mistake just now, but it won’t happen this time.”

Wang Hu took aim again, but unfortunately the taller zombie was already alert and his body swayed. Wang Hu missed again with his shot.

The Type 56 submachine gun is an imitation of the AK47. It is basically the same as the AK. At such a short distance, the lethality caused is extremely huge.

 But this shot obviously did not achieve that effect.

 A shot hit the shoulder. The tall zombie staggered, but did not fall.

 “Not only did I gain strength, but I also gained weight.”

 Continuous shooting made these zombies stop eating, stand up with teeth and claws, and rush toward the second floor window.

The tall zombie even rushed to the door and hit the unit door hard, making a rumbling sound.

The quality of the unit doors in old-fashioned residential areas is not very good, and they will be damaged quickly if they continue like this.

And the view is blocked by the rain eaves in front of the unit door, making it impossible to shoot.

Wang Hu immediately said to Ye Fan: "Sir, I'll jump down and divert these zombies away."

As a red police soldier, he regards protecting Ye Fan as his bounden duty, and sacrificing himself is simply a trivial matter.

Ye Fan quickly glanced downstairs and pointed at one of the middle-aged female zombies: "Knock it down, and then take these zombies to the gate of the community. I will find someone to cooperate with you immediately."

Without saying a word, Wang Hu raised his gun and fired another shot.

This time he finally acted normally. He shot the female zombie in the head with one shot, and then immediately jumped out of the second-floor window.

 Seeing Wang Hu come out, more than twenty zombies immediately followed them with roars, and the speed was not too slow.

Wang Hu ran very fast, and occasionally took the opportunity to turn around and shoot, but as a mobilized soldier without stars, he was really not qualified to be a sharpshooter.

 Looking back three or four times, I knocked down a zombie.

 Fortunately, he finally led the zombie group away, and Ye Fan immediately rushed out of the corridor and came to the female zombie.

 A gold bracelet on his wrist is his goal.

With a gentle touch of the finger, Nana in the body is immediately triggered, without any reminder, and immediately converts the gold bracelet into system money.

 This bracelet is not light, weighing more than 30 grams.

 Ye Fan’s system gold increased from 79 to 112.

 “Nana, produce a mobilization soldier for me immediately.”

 “As you wish, my sir.”

 A minute later, another soldier came out of the corridor.

 “Private Li Biao, I’ve seen the commander!”

This private is slightly shorter than Wang Hu, about 1.78 meters, and he also has a tough look on his face. It seems that he is born to be a soldier.

  The same Type 56, the same military backpack, another good man.

 “Immediately go to meet Wang Hu and cooperate with him in the battle.”

"clear!"

Li Biao immediately rushed out of the corridor. When Wang Hu saw Li Biao coming out, he immediately pulled the zombie in circles in the yard.

 The zombies with low intelligence did not understand tactics and only knew how to run with Wang Hu, which gave Li Biao the opportunity to shoot calmly.

 “Bang bang~~~!”

  Style 56 kept spitting out tongues of fire, and zombies kept falling to the ground.

Wang Hu also fired sporadically from the front. The two of them attacked from the front and back, and the number of zombies became less and less.

 There were only two left, including the tall zombie.

 “I’m almost out of bullets!” Wang Hu said loudly.

 “I have three more rounds.”

 The two men raised their guns again, and it took three shots to knock down another zombie.

One person still had one bullet, and Ye Fan immediately told them to run this way.

 Two people ran over with the zombie, and Ye Fan opened fire on the second floor.

 The revolver fired continuously, and all six bullets poured out.

Ye Fan hit one of the zombie's legs, hitting three of the six bullets, and finally made several **** holes in the zombie's leg.

Li Biao fired a shot from behind, and the zombies staggered and slowed down.

Wang Hu went over and kicked him, and the zombie's legs finally broke.

 But the moment he fell, the zombie jumped forward fiercely, and its black nails scratched across Wang Hu's chest.

Blood gushed out. Wang Hu staggered forward, turned around and saw the zombie falling to the ground, and immediately shot him in the head again!

This time he didn’t miss, he shot directly to the head and died!

 He didn't even care about his injuries and immediately collected jewelry with Li Biao.

Several zombies that mainly wore jewelry had been collected. This wave of gains was not big, and only 13 units of money were brought back to Ye Fan.

Ye Fan hurriedly asked Wang and Hu to follow him upstairs, took out his medical kit, and injected Wang Hu with anti-viral serum.

Wang Hu's face was a little gloomy at first, but he recovered quickly after being injected with the serum.

 The wound on the chest was very shallow and has scabbed over now, so it has no impact.

 In the apocalypse, serum is definitely a very important thing. It can save people before they become 50% zombies. This is a squad leader-level effect.

Ye Fan let out a sigh of relief: "Although we didn't get the fire ax and we ran out of bullets, fortunately we cleaned up the zombies downstairs, which is a bit of a gain."

Unexpectedly, Wang Hu suddenly stood up and said: "Sir, Private Wang Hu has been promoted to a first class soldier, that is, a one-star soldier! He has new bullets."

 “Oh, you’ve risen to the stars!”

Ye Fan felt happy, looked at Wang Hu a few times, and immediately saw that there was something extra on him.

 There are two more magazines on the armed belt.

Every Red Alert soldier is born, and the gun is automatically full of ammunition, but if you run out of shots, it will be gone. You have to wait for a refresh.

Or just look for rifle bullets, but that stuff is too hard to find and can only be found in the military area.

Thirty rounds of bullets are too few. I dare not shoot at all, because it will attract zombies and the bullets will be used up quickly.

Unexpectedly, after rising to the star level, there would be two more magazines.

 “Why did you rise to stardom so quickly?”

“According to the red alert rules, when we kill units with three times the value of ourselves, we can upgrade the star.”

 Ye Fan immediately counted the number of Wang Hu's kills and felt something was wrong.

Wang Hu explained: "Each zombie is worth about ten gold. I need to kill thirty zombies to upgrade to one star. I just killed twenty-one zombies, and the value of the big zombie reached 100. Gold, that’s why I will be promoted to star.”

Only then did Ye Fan understand that the tall zombies obviously showed signs of evolution, so the value of killing them was higher.

“The magazines are all fully loaded.”

“Yes, sir, after becoming a private, the number of bullets I can use every day has reached 90 rounds, and my shooting accuracy has increased by 50%!”

Ye Fan has seen Wang Hu's shooting skills, which were as close as ten or twenty meters away. Sometimes he couldn't hit the head, but now he is probably much stronger.

 “What about other aspects? Has it been improved?”

“My melee combat ability has improved. I can fight three ordinary people with one person.”

 Hearing Wang Hu’s introduction, Ye Fan was very satisfied.

 With a superior soldier and 90 rounds of ammunition, he can now get the fire axe.
