Chapter 19 Vegetable Question
Chapter 19 Vegetable Question
Zombie Tushan held the leaf with a hint of hesitation on his face. Behind him, a dozen zombies under his control were scattered around woodenly.
Tu Shan turned his head and looked back. From his current position, he could hardly see the outline of the fortress in the distance.
On that withered yellow leaf, besides a tangled mass of curved lines, Tushan could only make out three patterns;
An irregular quadrilateral, a fir-like pattern, and the last one was a big cross;
Tushan saw a similar fir pattern on the wall of the fortress, and he boldly guessed that the fir pattern on the leaf marked the location of the fortress.
Using the fortress as a reference, combined with the directions indicated on the map, Tushan easily determined the approximate locations of the other two patterns;
The only uncertainty now is that it is unclear how far the three are from each other. On this crude map, the distances between the three are not marked in detail.
Tushan originally wanted to leave here and go to other places to look for more "fruits"; and the map he accidentally got was like someone delivering a pillow to him when he was sleepy. The appearance of this map was just right. Having this thing as a reference was definitely much better than blindly trying.
Tu Shan gestured at the other two patterns for a long time, and finally decided to try his luck at the location of the quadrilateral.
The reason why Tushan chose the quadrilateral pattern instead of the more eye-catching cross pattern is that the quadrilateral pattern is located closer to the fir pattern on the "map", while the other cross pattern is far away in the corner of the edge of the "map";
Tushan checked the direction on the map, then started walking. The zombies he controlled followed him woodenly.
Tushan prayed now, hoping that the distance between the two would not be too far;
In the fortress
The remaining zombies wandered aimlessly around the abandoned fortress;
One of the zombies seemed to have sensed something, and kept sniffing the air around it. Then, it separated from the zombie group and followed the smell to the corner of the fortress.
The place was overgrown with weeds and disorder, and there was only a short and fat figure of emerald green sitting upright in the weeds;
"Senior Caiwen, I've told you long ago that you should take a shower. Look at your body odor, it's attracting zombies here. Where's the ambush we agreed on?"
Seeing the zombies staring at the green fat man squatting on the ground, a pea shooter stood up from the weeds nearby and said helplessly to the green fat man sitting on the ground;
The plant unit, called Caiwen by Peashooter, struggled to get up from the ground;
"Is it my fault? Who knew these guys' sense of smell would be so sensitive? According to the information provided by the Supreme Evolution, haven't these guys lost their senses?"
Cai Wen and the Pea Shooter were arguing back and forth.
"What should we do now?" The pea shooter obviously didn't want to argue about this issue for too long;
"Snapped"
Caiwen swung his fist and knocked down the zombie that rushed towards him with one punch;
"Why ask? Just call in."
"whoosh"
A red cherry bomb was thrown straight from a distance and landed directly in the center of the zombie group;
The half-inch-long dead branch on the cherry bomb was hissing with white smoke. The singularity of the cherry bomb had been ignited. The cherry bomb, which had briefly regained its senses, glanced at the zombies that were gathered around it. A desperate expression appeared on its face, and then it expanded rapidly like a balloon that had been blown up, and then exploded directly.
The explosion of the cherry bomb overturned the gathered zombies. In the center of the zombie group, zombies suffered heavy casualties and wailed everywhere.
The zombies on the edge had luckily escaped the attack of the cherry bomb, and just as the explosion subsided, they fled in all directions;
The fleeing zombies didn't get far before they were blocked by nuts coming from all directions.
These nut units are more than twice as tall as ordinary nuts. The nuts hold hands and stand shoulder to shoulder, forming an impenetrable nut wall.
Brainless zombies don't care what the difference is between these tall nuts and ordinary nuts;
The zombies came forward, opened their toothless mouths, hugged the nut wall and bit it hard;
Compared to other nut walls, these tall nuts are not only taller, but also covered with a light yellow striped shell. This shell firmly protects the body of the nut wall. Every zombie that comes up to bite it has its teeth instantly broken by this shell.
Cai Wen, who was standing outside the nut wall, stood on tiptoe and watched the zombies inside the nut wall being frustrated, and couldn't help clapping and laughing;
"This pumpkin set is really a good thing. Don't open fire yet. Let them bite it and see whether the teeth of these ghosts are strong or my pumpkin set is strong. "
The Peashooter standing behind him coughed softly;
"Senior Nawen, the Supreme Evolution asked us to come here to investigate the cause of the fall of Fortress Zero. We don't have much time to waste here;"
When the Pea Shooter mentioned the Supreme Evolution, Caiwen's arrogant laughter stopped abruptly, his neck shrank, and a fearful expression appeared on his face;
Apparently, Caiwen still didn't dare to be too presumptuous about the Supreme Evolution mentioned by Pea Shooter;
Then the Pea Shooter gave orders without asking for Caiwen's opinion.
"The pea shooters will surround the zombies, and the corn pitchers will assist. Kill all the zombies, leaving no one behind;"
A row of pea shooters surrounded him from behind. They took a step forward at the same time and thrust the hollow barrels of their guns in their right hands into the gaps between the nut walls. Without aiming, pea shooters were ejected like hail, knocking down the zombies surrounded by the nut walls one by one.
The remaining zombies wandered around in the narrow nut wall, relying on instinct to try to avoid the attacks of the surrounding pea shooters;
Chunks of butter were thrown from behind, passing over the nut wall formed by nuts, and hitting the zombies' heads. Any zombie hit by the butter would be stuck in place and unable to move.
Butter has no harm to zombies. Zombies stuck with butter can recover after three to five seconds.
But these short three to five seconds are enough for the surrounding pea shooters to shoot three to four peas;
The pea shooter always chooses to attack zombies that are stuck with butter first. Zombies stuck with butter can only watch helplessly as groups of peas knock their heads off.
Caiwen looked back and saw dense chunks of butter being thrown from a distance, but he could not see the "carrier" that was throwing the butter.
"I really envy these pitchers, they can do their job by hiding far away, without having to face these ugly things;"
Cai asked with envy in his tone;
"Japanese pumpkin commandos, follow me, we are about to attack;"
Caiwen shouted loudly and rushed towards the nut wall first. Behind him, a dozen short and sturdy squashes followed Caiwen with short legs and crooked mouths.
Seeing Caiwen and his group of squash rushing over, two of the nuts took a step back, and a gap appeared in the circle of nuts.
Following the gap, Caiwen led the squash team into the nut wall;
Waiting for Caiwen and his group to enter the nut wall, the nuts behind them immediately stood back in place and blocked the gap;
"Everyone, be careful, don't hurt Senior Caiwen;"
The peashooter who was commanding from the back shouted loudly to the peashooters who were surrounding the nut wall;
Nawen punched a zombie that was close to him and sent it flying;
"Let those cowardly pitchers see who is the bravest fighter. Boys, beat these ugly zombies hard for me;"
The squash behind him tilted its mouth, glanced at the zombie in front of it with squinted eyes, kicked the ground with its short legs, and bounced up, using its own weight to directly crush the zombie in front of it;
Outside the fortress;
Caiwen sat on the ground panting, with several broken corpses of zombies under his buttocks;
The wall of nuts, wearing tattered pumpkin covers, stood in a row behind Caiwen;
Caiwen patted a nut behind him;
"What a good thing! Fortunately, it is protected by this pumpkin cover. Look, there is no damage to the skin or flesh."
Facing Caiwen's praise, the nut's eyes were dull and unmoved, as if Caiwen was slapping other nuts;
The peashooter who had taken over the command from Nawen came out of the fortress with two squash warriors;
Seeing the pea shooter coming out, Caiwen put away the playful expression on his face;
"How's the situation inside?
In response to Caiwen's questioning, the pea shooter shook his head;
"Not very optimistic. Fortress Zero had already been captured by this group of zombies before we arrived. The defending plant team and the consciousness crystals were gone. "
After listening to the pea shooter's report, Caiwen couldn't help but frown;
"This is really troublesome. The Supreme Evolution has already said that Pea Shooter No. 1 and Consciousness Crystal No. 0 are extremely important and must be brought back. Now we can't get any of them. What should we do?"
Cai Wen was so anxious that he kept pulling out the few green leaves on his head with his hands.
The pea shooter at the side leaned forward and asked cautiously;
"The Pea Shooter No. 1 and the Consciousness Crystal No. 0 were placed in Fortress No. 0 by the Supreme Evolution. Such a remote place was breached by the zombie tide by chance. Could it be that;"
The Peashooter stopped talking halfway through.
Caiwen stopped plucking the green leaves above her head with her hands, looked around, and lowered her voice;
"You mean Dr. Zombie, the old immortal?"
Then, without waiting for the Peashooter to respond, Caiwen shook his head in denial;
"Impossible. It's only been a short time. Could it be that the old guy wants to start a war with us again? It's absolutely impossible.
The peashooter took out a pea, put it into the hollow barrel of the gun in his right hand, raised the barrel and aimed it in the direction of the fortress, then put it down again;
"Nothing is impossible. That's Dr. Zombie. No living creature can guess what that bastard is thinking. I bet three peas that this incident must be related to him. "
