Chapter 27 Sending Love
Gu Nanfeng and Qin Yuan understood the current situation, and it was indeed similar to their judgment. The zombies inside wanted to deplete their ammunition, so that not only would they not be able to obtain the factory's supplies, but the 0788 team might also be killed by the zombies after running out of ammunition.
"Have you tried using a drone to lure them in?" Gu Nanfeng asked. After all, based on the information they had gathered before, zombies should actively attack electronic devices like drones. If they could remotely control a drone, they should be able to draw the zombies into their firing range.
"Dr. Gu, you have no idea what's going on now..." Qin Yuan had just started to complain when Pei Sihao burst out laughing again at the mention of "Dr. Gu".
"Captain Qin, you can just call me Xiao Gu." Gu Nanfeng glanced at Pei Sihao, who was trying not to laugh, and gestured for him to be serious. Lu Yuan hadn't thought anything of it at first, but seeing Pei Sihao trying not to laugh almost made him laugh too, so he awkwardly retreated behind Gu Nanfeng to hide.
"Ah, okay." Qin Yuan didn't seem to care about that, and continued to complain by changing the way he addressed him, "Little Gu, you don't know. The batch of zombie soldiers infected by the virus rain took control of our city's electronic equipment warehouse area. Those zombies are incredibly intelligent and violent. Now all the drones in our base are registered under real names. The day before yesterday, the one our team was leading was shot down by a zombie when we went to the city to search for supplies. I'm too embarrassed to go and get another one."
Upon learning of this situation, Gu Nanfeng gave Pei Sihao a look, and Pei Sihao pulled Lu Yuan away. They knew that there was a severe shortage of various electronic devices at the security base, and they could only retrieve a drone from Lu Yuan's space as an emergency measure. However, they couldn't take it in front of Qin Yuan and his team, so they had to lie and say that they were going to get it from the car.
Lu Yuan took a drone from his spatial storage in the car. After thinking for a moment, the two of them simply drove the car around the bend and parked it behind the two supply trucks. The resting soldiers were surprised to see Gu Nanfeng and his team's two modified vehicles. These vehicles were much better modified than the supply trucks in their base.
Lu Yuan handed the drone to Gu Nanfeng. Qin Yuan, who was standing next to him, was practically drooling over the drone. Gu Nanfeng didn't stand on ceremony and stuffed it directly into Qin Yuan's hand, saying, "We brought it from school. We have a few more in the car, but we don't have any more. You can take this for now in case of emergency."
At this point, Qin Yuan no longer cared about not taking a single penny from the masses. After all, this drone was the key to their operation. If they succeeded, he would give Gu Nanfeng and the others more food as payment for their debt.
"I'll direct their attack from here, or you, Xiao Gu, can help us operate the drone?" To increase their chances of success, Qin Yuan picked up his gun and joined his team as they approached the factory gate fence.
Gu Nanfeng didn't refuse and started operating the drone to fly towards the zombie horde in the factory.
The drone that suddenly flew in immediately attracted the attention of the zombies in the factory. Some of them picked up things from the ground and threw them, while others jumped up to try to grab them. In short, they did everything they could to destroy the drone.
Gu Nanfeng saw from the remote-controlled monitoring screen that the drone had fully attracted the zombies' attention, so he began to control the drone to fly towards the gate.
The zombies swarmed over following the drone, and Qin Yuan immediately seized the opportunity to open fire with the other 14 team members. The team had several sharpshooters who were almost always accurate, and the wave of zombies that came up was all killed with headshots in no time.
So Gu Nanfeng used the same trick again, operating the drone to fly deeper into the area.
When the second wave of zombies came out, Lu Yuan was still excited next to Gu Nanfeng. He even wanted to bring out another drone to help, but as expected, something unexpected still happened.
As soon as the second wave of zombies approached, the first few were shot in the head, and the rest stopped advancing, even though Gu Nanfeng was maneuvering the drone to lure them back and forth.
The longest range of the firearms Qin Yuan and his group brought this time was the submachine gun in his hand. The zombies inside really calculated their range accurately, wandering around more than 300 meters away, refusing to move an inch further.
"They reacted really quickly." After several unsuccessful attempts, Gu Nanfeng was also helpless.
“They’re not falling for drones anymore.” Yang Xiao looked around boredly. Suddenly, he remembered those five years in his dream. They used a weapon very frequently, and it was a cold weapon. He pulled Lu Yuan to the car and asked, “Lu Xiaoyuan, quickly check your precious space. Do you have a crossbow, the kind of cold weapon?”
"Yes, yes, yes, that range can be even farther than a gun!" Zhong Qiang played a game where there was a crossbow-wielding faction, which he knew a little about. He remembered that the game's information said that some crossbow bolts had an effective range of over 600 meters.
Lu Yuan quickly searched his spatial storage, and sure enough, there were some. However, he wasn't sure which type had the longest range, and it wouldn't be appropriate to take out too many at once, so he pulled the two of them into the car and took them out one by one to examine them.
In the end, Zhong Qiang and Yang Xiao chose a crossbow that looked modern, stylish, and high-quality. To avoid seeming overly extravagant, they only took two. After all, it was impossible for novice students like them to each have a crossbow, so they had to lie and say that Yang Xiao knew how to use it, hence the two. They couldn't take too many arrows either, so they just took a tube, about fifty in total. As for what to do next, they'd figure it out as they went along.
Qin Yuan was overjoyed when Yang Xiao stepped off the vehicle carrying a quiver of arrows and a crossbow. This Tang Dynasty sword squad was practically a godsend; they had drones, and now they even had two crossbows. He was a bit of a cold weapon enthusiast and sometimes played with these things in the army, so he knew that a good crossbow could easily have a range of over 300 meters.
"There are only two, so you'd better use them carefully!" Although Yang Xiao was a complete novice at using crossbows in his dream, he genuinely liked these two crossbows he took out of Lu Yuan's space; they were much better looking than the ones in his dream. He didn't know how many Lu Yuan had, and if these were the only two, he wanted to keep them to practice with and enrich his methods of hunting zombies. Using a crossbow was much cooler than using a hammer!
Qin Yuan took the two crossbows from Yang Xiao and called over a soldier who had played with crossbows with him in the army. The boy was not even 18 years old and was not as old as Lu Yuan and the others. He couldn't hide his excitement when he saw the two exquisite crossbows.
The two men, armed with two crossbows, unleashed a barrage of fire at the zombies opposite them. However, only a dozen or so of the second wave of zombies that had slipped out remained. Aside from wasting a couple of arrows at the beginning due to a loss of aim, they were almost unerring afterward, quickly blowing the heads off all the dozen or so zombies.
