Chapter 403 Snow disaster at the base
“It snowed heavily again last night...”
After Ding Yuqin and the others got up, they frowned when they looked at the heavy snow outside the window.
We promised to go out for a big action today, but it snowed again. Not only was the snow heavy, but the wind was also strong. The whole world was covered in white, and it looked like the Ice Age...
Even before the end of the world, it was basically impossible to encounter such a heavy snowfall. There is no way out, not to mention that there are many dangers outside. Even if there are vehicles such as tanks and tracked vehicles, safety cannot be guaranteed.
The scale of this operation is large. If something goes wrong, it will be a fatal blow to the entire Changhe base.
"The operation should have been cancelled..."
Wang Tao brought the information watch beside the bed. There were several messages on it, namely Gu Yun, Yao Guodong, Cheng Yiyi, and Qu Shilin.
And their contents are all very similar - today's actions have all been cancelled.
"Sure enough."
Wang Tao shook his head.
To be honest, he is still very interested in this action.
If they can take advantage of the opportunity of the zombies being frozen to eliminate the zombie tide, then they will save a lot of trouble when they go out in the future, at least they will not be chased by the zombie tide again, but it is a pity that God does not wish for it. , in front of nature, we can only give in.
During dinner yesterday, Yao Guodong pulled all the forces that were going to go today into a group to facilitate communication during action.
Now, this group is very lively and full of discussions.
Wang Tao took a quick look and found that most of them expressed helplessness and complaints.
"Is it true that we can't go out? We have tanks and other military vehicles. There should be no way to stop us with this level of snow, right?"
Someone asked reluctantly.
He was already emotionally aroused yesterday, thinking about going out to have a big fight today, earn some crystal cores, and live a good year. The result is like this...
"Nonsense, the snow will definitely not be able to stop the tanks now. But the problem is that the dangers outside are not only snow, but also low temperatures, zombies, and even terrain... These are all Danger! ”
Someone explained.
"Yes, in addition to these dangers, with the current visibility, you may not even be able to see the zombies! Where are you going to kill the zombies!"
"And now the wind It's so big, I feel like I might be blown up even when I step out. With such a strong wind, even if I see zombies, it's probably not easy to attack..."
"If you knew, we are on a high wall now. There is such a heavy snowstorm here, do you know how big the snowstorm is outside?”
“…”
Others echoed.
There are many people who are willing to go out, but most of them are rational. Going out at this time is really asking for death.
"You definitely can't go out now. There are reasons..."
Gu Yun showed up and explained.
After the official explanation came out, there were fewer people discussing whether they could still go out. However, the discussion has not stopped. Now we are discussing when the snow will stop.
Judging from the current situation, it seems that the snow will not stop at all, but the first snow yesterday was similar to now in the early stage. It seemed quite fierce, but then it suddenly stopped... Then today's snow Will the snow stop for a while?
As long as they can stop for a few hours, they might have a chance to go out. After all, they can do a lot of things in a few hours.
So, everyone began to predict when the snow would stop today.
But what happened next was different from what they imagined - the snowstorm was getting bigger and bigger!
"Oh, this is no longer a question of whether you can go out..."
Wang Tao put his hand on the glass window, feeling the cold touch, and frowned deeply.
Sure enough, a moment later, a notification was sent in the group——
The plan to go out to hunt zombies was completely cancelled. Not only was it not going now, but it would not be possible even if the snow stopped!
This is because the city hall said that freezing disasters and snow disasters may occur in the base in the future, so everyone should be prepared in advance and be on standby at any time.
Actually, yesterday was considered a snow disaster. After all, it had caused traffic disruption and many cars could not move... But the snow yesterday stopped after all, and it was not as heavy as today.
Yesterday, only the snow on some roads was shoveled away, but the snow in other places is still there. If there is snow of today's scale, not to mention blocking the roads, houses may be crushed!
Changhe base is very large and has various houses. The villa Wang Tao lives in is made of reinforced concrete, so there is no need to worry. Most of them are brick houses or even wooden houses. Maybe they can't withstand such heavy snow...
And with the blizzard comes low temperature. People with super powers have good physiques and are more resistant to freezing, but ordinary people can't. There is no heating here. If the house collapses or the air leaks or something, ordinary people may freeze to death...
So, now it is not about hunting zombies, but it may involve their current survival. question!
While eating breakfast, Ding Yuqin and the others also frowned and looked ugly.
"It feels like the situation is very bad..."
"I have a bad feeling..."
"It is obviously a festive day, but now..."
"..."
After Wang Tao took a sip of hot porridge, he shook his head helplessly.
In the face of this kind of natural crisis, the power of an individual is too small, and even he has no solution. All I can say is that I hope the people at the base have good luck and the snow stops soon.
But their luck is obviously not very good. While Wang Tao and his group were warming up around the fireplace, another news came from the city hall - a house had been crushed!
Although the family has evacuated in advance, their lives are not in danger for the time being. But this is not a good sign. Because after the first one, there will be a second one, and a third one...
After that, as Wang Tao thought, some more houses collapsed one after another. The six legions, city defense troops, police, etc. have all begun to dispatch.
“Do you need our help?”
Lan Yulian looked at Wang Tao and asked.
"No need for now, let's wait for the news."
There is a unified command for disaster relief. Wang Tao doesn't know much about it, so he won't cause any trouble. They just need to stay at home. As long as there is news, he will definitely bring people up.
“Okay!”
Everyone nodded, waiting for the news silently.
In the afternoon, news finally reached him.
"Wang Tao, are you at home?"
The person contacted was Gu Yun.
“I’m here, do you have any instructions?”
Wang Tao said immediately.
"I don't dare to obey the order. Can you go to this place? There is a house there that has just collapsed and the lines are down. There is no way to communicate. I don't know if there are any casualties at the moment. Someone needs to go and take a look..."
While Gu Yun was talking, he also sent a photo.
Wang Tao was a little worried when he heard that a house collapsed. However, after seeing that this was a place where civilians lived, Wang Tao was temporarily relieved. Because these places are all low-rise buildings, even if they do collapse, there are likely to be survivors and it is easier to clean up. If a building or something collapses, then basically everything will be cold.
"Okay, I'll be there right away!"
After Wang Tao ended the call, he looked at the people around him.
"I'm going out, Yu Lian, Lao Xiang, the three of us together - oh, by the way, there's Lightning, the others are waiting at home, there may be other places that need help, you can allocate according to the situation! "The base's wireless signals have been affected, and Wang Tao can't contact other people after he goes out. It's better to leave some people at home.
“Okay!”
Everyone nodded.
Then Wang Tao looked at Ding Yuqin again.
"Sister-in-law, if anything happens, you can contact me."
Both he and Ding Yuqin wear induction rings, which will not affect the signal. The two can communicate directly in their hearts, although there is a certain distance limit. , but it is still very convenient at this time. This is why Wang Tao asked them to stay at home. If anything happens at the city hall, Ding Yuqin can notify Wang Tao directly.
“Yes!”
Ding Yuqin nodded heavily.
After Wang Tao and the others made some preparations, they opened the door.
Phew——
The cold air from outside rushed in instantly, and even Wang Tao, who was relatively resistant to frost, shivered.
“What a damn weather!”
Everyone cursed in their hearts.
The temperature was estimated to be minus one to twenty degrees. They all felt very cold. If ordinary people were exposed to this scene, they would be frozen into popsicles soon.
"Are we going to drive?"
Lan Yulian asked after taking a breath of air conditioning.
There are two cars parked at Wang Tao's house, a modified bulletproof minibus and an off-road vehicle borrowed from Qu Shilin and equipped with anti-skid chains.
In this environment, minibuses are obviously not suitable and can only be off-road vehicles. But Wang Tao shook his head.
“No, leave the car to them, we won’t drive.”
As Wang Tao said, he suddenly held Lan Yulian's hand. In Lan Yulian's somewhat confused eyes, a tree root appeared from Wang Tao's wrist, and wrapped it around Lan Yulian in the blink of an eye. Turned her into a "tree monster". However, Lan Yulian has a petite figure. Even if she turns into a tree monster, she is still not as tall as Wang Tao.
"Hey, it's not cold anymore..."
Lan Yulian's muffled voice came from inside.
“As long as it’s not cold anymore.”
Wang Tao nodded.
It had been a long time since he had used the entangled tree roots. After all, this was only a third-level weapon. Wang Tao felt that it should be able to block some wind and snow, and now it seems that it is indeed feasible.
Wang Tao himself entered his powered armor, and it wasn't very cold inside. Of course, Wang Tao is not afraid of the cold, but there are some instruments on this power armor that may be useful, so it is better to take them with you. After all, this thing is bound to Wang Tao, and no one else can use it except Wang Tao.
As for Xiang Hongbin and Lightning, they are both not afraid of the cold, so Wang Tao doesn't have to worry about them.
“Let’s go!”
After everything was ready, Wang Tao’s power armor spurted out blue flames and rushed into the snow. Xiang Hongbin also sprayed out a faint blue flame at his feet, and followed Wang Tao to slide on the ground.
The lightning instantly grew in size and returned to its true form, about the size of a cow. Lan Yulian sat directly on Lightning and followed Wang Tao into the snow.
There was already a thick layer of snow on the road, but I could still recognize the road. The address given by Gu Yun was not far from Wang Tao's villa, and Wang Tao and others arrived here quickly.
“Many houses have collapsed...”
This is a shack house, no wonder it collapsed so quickly under the weight of heavy snow.
Looking at the collapsed houses in the wind and snow, Wang Tao immediately walked over and started rummaging. There is a life detector on the power armor that can detect life below. The strength of the powered armor was not to be underestimated. Wang Tao easily dug through the rubble and found a tightly wrapped survivor.
"Thank you, thank you..."
The man still couldn't believe it. He had given up treatment and was waiting to die, but he didn't expect to be saved.
After Wang Tao saw that there was a blood bar on the opponent's head, he didn't take a closer look and directly called Lan Yulian.
Brush——
A faint green light fell on the survivor's head, and his blood volume instantly increased a lot.
At the same time, several pieces of cockroach paste fell on the man.
"You find a place to hide first."
"Yes!"
After being treated, the man became much more energetic instantly. He quickly hugged the quilt, Hiding in the corner of a ruins, it can block some cold wind.
Wow——
Lightning rushed directly into the ruins and dug out. After a few seconds, he pulled out two people hugging each other tightly. They seemed to be a couple.
The two of them were not dead either, but they fainted before. Now after being pulled out, he woke up in a daze, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a big mouth full of fangs.
Separated——
The two fainted again.
Lingning quickly took a step back, indicating that it had nothing to do with me.
Wang Tao was speechless when he saw this scene. He ordered:
"Lightning, bring them up, Yulian adds blood."
"Woof!"
Lightning He opened his mouth wide, bit the two of them gently, and sent them to the first survivor. The first survivor dared not move.
Lan Yulian cast two green lights one after another on the two unconscious survivors. Their blood volume instantly recovered a large amount, but they were not awake yet.
"Take care of them."
Lan Yulian said to this person.
“Yes, yes!”
The man nodded quickly.
On the other side, Xiang Hongbin was similar to Wang Tao. After detecting where there was life at close range, he relied on his strength to open the ruins in a few seconds and saw a comatose survivor inside. who.
When he took the survivor out, Lan Yulian gave another treatment to restore the man's blood volume.
Wang Tao's rescue is not professional, and he doesn't pay too much attention to it. As long as the person is alive, he can just get it out. It doesn't matter the injury or anything. Anyway, Lan Yulian can guarantee that they will not die.
Wang Tao, Xiang Hongbin and Ling Ling were rummaging through the ruins frantically, with Lan Yulian following closely behind to gain blood.
Their rescue was a little rough but efficient. In less than ten minutes, Wang Tao dug out all the survivors from the ruins.
Because Gu Yun informed quickly, Wang Tao arrived quickly, and rescued people quickly, no one died, which was a blessing among misfortunes.
After gathering these survivors together, Wang Tao was preparing to send them to the place designated by Gu Yun. Ding Yuqin suddenly contacted Wang Tao.
"Wang Tao, are you done? There is another place that needs rescue..."
