Chapter 143: Three-way attack
As a reptile, the mutated gray crocodile is different from ordinary crocodiles in that it can dive for long periods of time without going ashore, and can go for days or even months without going into the water. It is one of the very successful cases of mutation.
However, the mutant gray crocodile is huge and its speed in land combat is too slow. At this stage, the mutant gray crocodile will not play much role in land combat.
Su Chen thought about it for a long time and planned to take it with him first. After it has devoured enough fourth-level mutant creatures and successfully transformed into a fifth-level mutant creature, he will put it in the sea in the north of Nan City and wait until it can be ready.
After the land battle is unimpeded, come back to help.
Regarding Su Chen's decision, the mutant gray crocodile naturally agreed. Its idea was almost the same as Xiaobai's. As long as there was food, there would be no rejection.
Su Chen found a medium-duty truck near the small pond with a full fuel gauge. After throwing the big ash into the cargo box, Su Chen didn't even look at the route map and just drove north.
About ten days ago, Su Chen was wandering around Nanshi. It was difficult to see the shadow of level four mutant creatures. Less than ten days later, the number of level four mutant creatures had increased significantly. Su Chen suspected that there were other unknown areas.
, Level 5 mutated creatures may spring up like mushrooms after a rain.
As Su Chen walked along this time, the number of third-level mutant creatures on the road was already comparable to the number of second-level mutant creatures ten days ago.
Mutated creatures mutate rapidly by devouring the same kind or other mutated creatures of the same level.
It stands to reason that with the emergence of such a large number of third-level or even fourth-level mutant creatures, the overall number of mutant creatures should be greatly reduced. However, the actual situation is that the overall number of mutant creatures has not decreased, but has shown an upward trend.
It is worth mentioning that, as far as Su Chen knows so far, level one to level four mutant creatures, no matter what kind of mutant creatures they are, will not have the ability to reproduce, which means that their number will only become smaller and smaller, and it is impossible to change.
many.
Nowadays, the mutated creatures in Nan City have not decreased with the trend of time, but are gathering more and more. Su Chen doesn't know what the charm of Nan City is, attracting more and more mutated creatures to gather here.
There are tens of thousands of mutated creatures, and the number is even in the billions. It would be easier to deal with just humans mutating into zombies, but the key is that all creatures on this planet have the possibility of mutating.
Su Chen does not want to be a savior, but as a survivor, he has some resistance and thoughts towards mutant creatures dominating the planet.
This was Su Chen's first time driving a mid-truck truck. After reading the relevant instructions and with the assistance of the versatile expert, Su Chen quickly became proficient in driving a mid-truck truck. Compared with the Z3 off-road vehicle he first drove, he felt that the performance of the mid-duty truck was better.
It's simply terrible.
Su Chen drove north for half an hour, encountering many mutant creatures along the way, but there was no sign of a fourth-level mutant creature.
Su Chen didn't know if there was something wrong with his route. When driving north, it didn't matter that there were no shadows of fourth-level mutant creatures. Even third-level mutant creatures were rarely detected.
Although the number of third-level and fourth-level mutant creatures is small, the total number of mutant creatures is still very high. Su Chen even doubts whether this area will be like the urban area of Nanshi, where multiple fourth-level mutant creatures will appear in a melee.
In order not to be in the cargo box at the back of the car with Big Hui, Xiaobai huddled in the passenger seat. Although it looks like a cute husky, it is actually a cat.
Regarding Su Chen's question, Xiaobai agreed, and Big Hui in the trunk quickly agreed.
After receiving unanimous approval from Xiaobai and Dahui, Su Chen's suspicion was deemed true by him.
He stepped on the brakes decisively and ordered Xiaobai and Dahui to split up and find the fourth-level mutated creatures in the area.
Xiaobai had long been fed up with the crowding in the passenger seat. In front of Su Chen, he kicked the door next to the passenger seat and jumped out leisurely.
When Da Hui heard the noise, he wanted to continue sleeping in the cargo box. Seeing that Xiao Bai was one step ahead, he had no choice but to violently break open the door of the cargo box with his steel claws and get off the car while swinging his tail.
Although Dahui is amphibious on water, it cannot be called an amphibious creature in the true sense. Before the mutation, it was a genuine reptile, but in Su Chen's eyes, it was an amphibious creature.
Su Chen quickly arranged the route and scope for Xiaobai and Dahui.
Xiaobai walks to the west. Because it is fast and Xiaobai can detect the situation, its forward range is twice as high as that of Big Gray.
The big gray walked east. Its outer skin was hard. Although it would not cause fatal trouble, its speed was unbearable, so Su Chen had to reduce the scope of its search route.
As for Su Chen, he kicked open the car door and continued moving to the north.
Once one of the three parties discovers the target, they will remind each other, and the other two parties will rush over immediately.
Because Xiao Bai and Da Hui’s consciousnesses are connected with Su Chen’s, Su Chen’s world of consciousness is like a transit station. Even if Xiao Bai’s and Da Hui’s consciousnesses are not in Su Chen’s world of consciousness, because Su Chen’s world of consciousness has no channel.
Closed, they can still communicate with each other.
After the routes separated, Su Chen did not speed up. His ability to detect level four mutated creatures was far weaker than that of Xiao Bai and Da Hui.
If he were to move forward at full speed, not only would it be easy to miss the target, but it would also increase the time it takes to support the other two groups.
Xiaobai's strength alone is very strong, and it can barely compete with two level-4 mutant creatures joining forces, while Big Gray's skin has strong defense. Even if three or five level-4 mutant creatures join forces, they cannot break through the defense in a short time.
Su Chen wasn't worried that something would go wrong with them, he was just worried that things would turn out differently than he expected, so he couldn't run far away.
The range Su Chen set for them was a range that all three parties could quickly support. Once they reached the designated location and no target was found, they would retreat to the next gathering place, and Su Chen would redraw the route and conduct reconnaissance again.
In this way, there is no slow support, it just takes more time.
Su Chen, who has experienced so much, knows the importance of time and also knows that nothing can be rushed. He believes that as long as there are level four mutated creatures nearby, this operation is definitely the most stable.
Xiaobai and Dahui carried out Su Chen's orders unconditionally. After arriving at the designated place, they quickly went back to the next meeting place and then continued to set off.
The northern suburbs of Nan City are vast, and Su Chen is not sure when he will find his target, but he believes that his current efforts are definitely not in vain.
After several trips, the dusk sun was emitting residual heat, and Su Chen, Xiao Bai, and Da Hui arrived at the gathering point again.
Su Chen analyzed it briefly and decided on the route for this trip, which was also the last trip of the day.
Xiaobai, who had not eaten, was a little disappointed, while Dahui looked lazy and wished he could lie down on the ground and sleep now.
After determining the route, the three quickly separated for the last exploration trip of the day.
Five minutes later, Su Chen, who was heading north, suddenly stopped. In his perception, several figures appeared and disappeared.
Because the target was at the outermost edge of Su Chen's perception, he could not clearly sense the movements and combat power of these figures.
However, the mutated creatures that could be detected by Su Chen were naturally not ordinary things. He didn't think much about it. After determining the general direction, he speeded up and headed there.
Su Chen hid his aura all the way. Even if he speeded up, it would be difficult for the fourth-level mutated creatures to detect him.
In just half a minute, Su Chen's senses were able to clearly detect four energy fluctuations. Without any analysis, Su Chen immediately confirmed that there were four level four mutant creatures here.
Su Chen didn't know the purpose of their gathering here, and he didn't need to know. He just wanted the final result.
Before Su Chen informed Xiaobai and Dahui about the situation here, Dahui was the first to send the news.
Dahui rushed ahead of Su Chen and also discovered the fourth-level mutated creature. Because he was not sure, he chose to get closer to check. Unexpectedly, it attracted the other party's attention. After passing on the information, he started fighting with another fourth-level mutated creature.
Xiaobai failed to find the target. It quickly received Su Chen's order and quickly turned to Su Chen's direction to support Su Chen.
There is only one opponent for Dahui, so he will be restrained by it for the time being, waiting for Su Chen and Xiaobai to solve the trouble here before going to support him.
After confirming that Xiao Bai was already on his way, Su Chen continued to move forward, and soon the shadows of the four mutated creatures appeared in his sight.
Their behavior was beyond Su Chen's expectations. They were all stuck in place, communicating in a language that Su Chen couldn't understand. It looked like a gathering of friends.
Su Chen once suspected that they did not leave here because another "little friend" at the party was stopped by Da Hui.
Not being able to understand the other party's language is a very distressing thing, but fortunately Su Chen is not interested in the content of their exchange.
Within a minute, Su Chen could see that these four mutated creatures had obvious changes. They were obviously aware of Xiaobai's arrival, and they should be discussing strategies to deal with the enemy.
The strength of these four mutated creatures is average. Once Xiaobai and Su Chen join forces, in a two-on-four situation, Su Chen thinks that his winning rate is very high.
Su Chen has already made a detailed analysis of their combat power.
A fourth-level speed zombie, because its arms were no different from those of a normal person, Su Chen changed his name to a speed zombie.
There are also level 4 power zombies, level 4 mutant dogs, and level 4 mutant giant turtles.
The names of the mutated vicious dogs and mutant giant turtles are provided by the Zombie Encyclopedia.
The mutated evil dog has an advantage in terms of speed. It has no other skills except for the beast transformation skill.
As for the Mutated Giant Turtle, it was formed by the mutation of a sea turtle. It is as big as a large suitcase. Its mutation is very successful. Its speed on land is faster than its movement speed in the sea, and it can reach 500.
Needless to say, its defense is slightly worse than Big Gray's normal defense. However, it does not have the ability to transform into a beast, but it does have a hard-shell skill.
As the name suggests, this is a defensive strengthening skill. The effect is to strengthen the defense by 100%, which means that its shell is so hard that even bullets cannot penetrate it.
However, the big gray is very good in terms of strength and agility, while the mutant giant turtle only has a defensive advantage. Its strength, speed, and agility are all unbearably weak.
