MTL - Darkness is Coming-Chapter 13 Planning for Paradise Island
"The above is the general outline of the matter." Yang Xiaoqian took a lot of words to explain the situation. Except for Yu Qian's secret, Yang Xiaoqian was not good at making the decision and could not disclose it. He did not hide other things from his father.
Fortunately, although Yang Yan is middle-aged, his brain is not slow. He usually likes to play games and read novels when he has nothing to do. His ability to accept is not bad, and he generally understands the current situation. Yang Xiaoqian did not hide the key content, and he also gave He Yu a general idea.
"What's your battle plan?" Yang Yan waved his hand. He thought that the four people in the car were the oldest and the most experienced, and he looked like he was going to take over the command.
"Cough, Dad, don't worry about this. We'll find a safe place for you to stay in there in a moment." Yang Xiaoqian patted Yang Yan's hand to signal him not to say more, this is Yu Qian not another Yu Qian, in case Annoyed at the boss can be very bad.
"However, we do need a battle plan." Yang Xiaoqian looked at Yu Qian and said seriously, "I admit that I didn't fully believe what you said at first, and I didn't realize the seriousness of the problem. When Yuanjiang was blocked, A lot of precious time has been wasted."
"Now, we have to hurry up and think clearly, what are we going to do, what can we do, what should we do?"
Yu Qian nodded in agreement: "I'm not very familiar with it, you can talk about it." Yu Qian means that he doesn't understand the situation of this earth, Yang Xiaoqian didn't say anything about him, and he doesn't plan to let anyone other than Yang Xiaoqian know about it. .
Yang Xiaoqian was not polite and did not shirk. After thinking about it for a while, he said, "First of all, we need to consider the number of patients in Yuanjiang. What is the type of crisis this time, a simple mutant virus? Or is it similar to a biochemical crisis? Zombie crisis?"
"Zombie?" Yu Qian was puzzled by the new term.
"Uh, it's just a way of saying, it's similar to the living corpse you said." Yang Xiaoqian wanted to use his mobile phone to search for Baidu entries for Yu Qian, but the network was still on strike, so he had to explain himself, "The so-called zombie is a kind of The living dead in western voodoo culture like to eat fresh meat, so they will attack and infect humans or other creatures. In some movies and games, they have been adapted into monsters that can evolve and mutate. They have low intelligence but can only be killed by headshots - of course I personally have serious doubts about this claim."
After a pause, Yang Xiaoqian continued: "In the final analysis, it is still carbon-based creatures, and there should be many ways to destroy them, such as flamethrower, high temperature damage to proteins is appropriate, another example is concentrated acid, the body is dissolved and can't jump. Come on. After all, it's a pile of dead meat without intelligence, and its mobility is low, so it's not a big threat."
Yu Qian nodded as he listened, his eyes wandering, playing with an old metal-colored pocket watch in his hand, and after a while he said, "According to this definition, it is different from a living corpse. A galloping horse is as powerful as an ox. It can jump up and smash the roof of a tile-roofed house, and it will seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. After eating a sufficient amount of fresh meat, it will have a certain intelligence. Some special living corpses have various unknown anomalies, Physical mutations—these are not well documented."
Yang Xiaoqian stared suspiciously at the pocket watch in Yu Qian's hand. Before this guy clearly asked three questions, he couldn't remember how many dry goods. Why did he say so many recorded "historical materials" now? There was probably something wrong with the pocket watch in his hand.
Yu Qian seemed to sense Yang Xiaoqian's gaze, put away the pocket watch in his hand, and said, "Depending on the situation, this time is very similar to the living corpse crisis, we have to be mentally prepared. But as you said, with your The level of force, the mere living corpses are not enough to fear."
Not enough to be afraid of? Yang Xiaoqian almost laughed.
Unintelligent zombies will simply hunt for food. Of course, those who are eaten cannot be transformed into zombies, so the number of zombies will not be too many. And what about intelligent zombies? They will take the initiative to infect humans to expand the size of the cluster and form a corpse tide.
Zombies without intelligence, no matter how strong, as long as their physical strength is not strong enough to resist bullets and missiles, it is easy for the country to kill them.
Not to mention state machines, even ordinary people can kill them in large numbers if they find the right way.
Such as placing pork in the square, broadcasting broadcasts, attracting a large number of living corpses and then setting the venue on fire; such as leading them to a tall building, and letting people standing on another building attract them to jump off the building; such as…
But once the zombies have wisdom, what about the advantages and disadvantages like animals?
Don’t forget that human beings are also a higher animal, and a living corpse with human shape and intelligence can use tools just like humans.
Once there are such high-level zombies that learn to fight, guerrilla, and assassinate, the army in Yuanjiang City can really crush them when they are concerned that the people do not dare to use the army aviation, ground artillery regiments, air force firepower and main battle tanks on a large scale. ?
And how many zombies will there be after the people are completely removed from the battlefield? Will they have formed a systematic battle sequence under the guidance and command of some high-level zombies instead of the corpse tide that can be suppressed by dozens of machine guns?
Maybe they can also learn to use weapons, wear bulletproof helmets, and carry guns and missiles. Can you imagine how terrifying it is?
This will be a desperate nightmare.
However, we haven't been sure how things will develop yet, so now we have to get up and take the time to be fully prepared! Yang Xiaoqian gritted his teeth and said, "Although this blockade is timely and efficient, there are bound to be fish that slip through the net. How many virus carriers left the far river before or after this and brought the virus to other cities? Now we can't. Contact with the outside world, but the situation in the outside world will directly affect the government or the world's attitude and handling of the disaster in the Far River."
"To sum up, whether this crisis is a zombie or a simple virus, I think the best place for us to build our base is." Yang Xiaoqian spread out the map of Yuanjiang that he had prepared a long time ago, and pointed to an isolated circle, "Jiang Xiaoqian said. Heart Island!"
"Jiangxin Island belongs to the far river and is a famous tourist attraction. There are hotels and restaurants on the island and the tourism industry is developed. That is to say, there should be enough food and drinking water on the island. We only need to purchase a large amount of gasoline, diesel and purified water. All kinds of equipment, machinery and medicines are enough. And because of the large number of tourists, there must be many ferries on the island to facilitate our transportation and transportation." Yang Xiaoqian said eloquently, "Quarantine and epidemic control on such an island surrounded by the sea is very important. It's easy, whether it's zombies or viruses, as long as they haven't learned to swim, we're safe on the island - if they can cross the ocean, nowhere in the world is absolutely safe."
"Furthermore, there are troops stationed near Jiangxin Island. If there is a corpse tide, we don't have to rely on you alone, we can rely on the strength of the People's Guard. The problem is that the government is likely to take Jiang Xin after the initial defeat. The island is a strategic center, come second." Yang Xiaoqian circled Jiangxin Island with his fingers on the map, "There are too many people there, and none of us have experience in managing large-scale gathering places, so a disaster cannot happen by then. Now, let all those innocent people sink into the river and reclaim the sea? If you keep them, you won’t be able to supply your daily food, let alone other troubles.”
Yu Qian moved his lips. He wanted to ask why he couldn't sink them all into the river, but in the end he didn't say it. He thought that such a common thing in his own world might not be acceptable at the moment, as long as everything If you haven't reached the last step, you can't commit against the world.
"Actually, we don't have to go there." Yang Yan, who had been silent for a long time, couldn't help but interrupt. After speaking, he pointed to a little black spot next to Jiangxin Island, "You can go here."
"What is this?" Yang Xiaoqian has lived in Yuanjiang for more than ten years and really doesn't know what kind of place it is.
"It's also a small island. It is called Paradise Island in private. The area is much smaller than Jiangxin Island, and not many tourists will go there." Yang Yan explained.
"What's the use of that, if we don't have the resources we need, we can't run to be a savage, right?" Yang Xiaoqian asked strangely, he thought his father should be smarter than this, otherwise how would he give birth to him.
"Cough, this is not without resources, um, how to say it. Jiangxin Island has a developed tourism industry, this paradise island, hehe." Yang Yan touched his nose, and this little action was also learned from some novel protagonists. , used to express the extreme embarrassment in the heart, "The entertainment industry in Paradise Island is relatively developed, that kind of special entertainment."
Yang Xiaoqian looked at Yang Yan's strange expression, "Men and boys can understand" in surprise. He felt like eating **** in his heart. He didn't expect his father to be this kind of father!
"Don't think crooked, it's gambling, gambling!" Yang Yan waved his hand and shouted, and then his tone became weaker, "Of course, underground casinos have some one-stop services, which are incidental, industrial chains."
Yang Xiaoqian couldn't help laughing, but thinking about it carefully, Paradise Island is indeed a better choice. It is also close to Jiangxin Island, and it is the first choice in all aspects.
"Well, it's full of casinos?"
"Actually, there is only one casino above. I heard that the boss' younger brother is Mayor Liu's personal security guard. Anyway, the relationship is very hard, and there must be a lot of protective measures above. Maybe the security guards are equipped with guns." Yang Yan guessed, "It can also be used as a help if you use it well. Anyway, doesn't Yu Qian have superpowers?"
Yang Xiaoqian shook his head: "Time is precious, efficiency comes first, and we can't leave troubles in the rear. In my opinion, if we really want to take that as a base, we have to lead out the big boss of the casino and control him. Just one person, he knows how the casino facilities operate and how the staff manages. As long as his life is in our hands, Paradise Island is in our hands, and it saves us a lot of effort. But how do we lead him out? It's rare to see you guys."
Yang Yan smiled and asked an unexpected question: "Xiaoqian, do you know how your name came from?"
"What?" This topic is too far off.
Yang Yan squinted his eyes, recalling the past, and a bright light appeared in the gap of his single eyelid. "I think back then, the big boss of the underground casinos in Jiangbei Province, nicknamed Grimace, bet against me for three days and nights. Old thousand'."
"This is the origin of your name, your father is Yang Laoqian, you are naturally Yang Xiaoqian."
"Later your mother gave birth to you. In order to keep our family safe, I washed my hands with gold and never set foot in the gambling world again."
"It seems that I have to return to the Jianghu, and the Jiangdong gambling world will tremble..." Yang Yan's eyes widened, his face solemn and solemn, "The holy gambler, the shadowless hand Yang Yan, the king is back!"
"Have you had enough?" Yang Xiaoqian really wanted to cover his face and not look at He Yu's face that wanted to laugh and didn't dare to laugh like a sauce-colored face and Yu Qian's face that smiled like an old chrysanthemum.
"There is one thing to say. I'm really strong. The boss who can win Paradise Island in minutes can't sit still. It's definitely not a problem to lead him out." Yang Yan avoided his son's murderous look and said lightly. , "But the problem is, I need the principal. Don't you say that time is precious? Betting with 10,000 yuan and betting with a million is not the same concept at all. It will take me too long to start from scratch. already."
"That's not a problem." Yu Qian pointed to the suitcase, "There, two million."
He Yu, who has been silent for a long time, also actively expressed: "I still have half a million dollars in my account."
Yang Yan's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he rubbed his hands together with a smile: "My dear, the first time I bet so big, I knew I should come this time."
Yang Xiaoqian has been unable to complain, has the dignified gambler ever won a five million game? Who are you fooling? I hope my father's gambling skills can really attract the boss of Paradise Island, otherwise...
Imagining himself, Yu Qian, He Yu, and his father wearing stockings on their faces, raising their guns and shooting, and then shouting, "Robbery! I'm going to rob the entire Paradise Island!" Yang Xiaoqian moaned weakly. "This style is not right."
