Chapter 286: The Queen

In just a moment, the flying Zerg in front of them were cleared away, and the Survivors, their hope rekindled, picked up their weapons, not forgetting their injured comrades who had fought alongside them.

He led them towards Qu Baoguo.

When Qu Baoguo saw the Survivors approaching, a look of relief appeared on his face; it seemed that gaining control of this group was a sure thing.

At the same time, he dispatched a few people with weapons to meet these Survivors.

He himself continued to hold off the Zerg attack with the others.

Under the enhancement of modern weapons, the Zerg quickly fell into a disadvantage, but this was only temporary.

Qu Baoguo and his group wouldn’t be able to hold out for long; the firearms and ammunition Liang Yu had given them were already largely depleted.

Although they had also captured nearly twenty police pistols, the amount of ammunition was pitifully small, and they were currently relying on the submachine guns of those twelve people to hold on.

To conserve ammunition, they could only fire in short bursts, yet even so, the consumption of bullets showed no sign of slowing down.

Qu Baoguo saw that these Survivors were about to rendezvous with them and reminded the others to retreat towards the base according to the plan.

Once the two groups had converged, they immediately led the Survivors to evacuate.

After the evacuation began, the suppressive firepower against the Zerg clearly weakened significantly, which also caused many flying Zerg to break through the blockade and fly towards their position.

Facing the incoming flying Zerg, the retreating crowd, though startled, remained orderly.

From the prepared crowd, several strong men emerged, wielding knives, guns, sticks, and clubs, striking down and killing the approaching flying Zerg.

However, the flying Zerg were becoming more numerous, and it seemed they were about to form a encirclement.

Qu Baoguo cautiously took out a box at this moment; inside the box lay the freeze bombs Liang Yu had created, of which there were not many, only two.

Qu Baoguo reluctantly took out one of them, looking at the dense Zerg behind him, he knew now was not the time to hesitate, and he threw it towards the Zerg, not forgetting to remind the others to speed up their departure.

The freeze bomb was thrown out and successfully hit the advancing Zerg; the shattered freeze bomb instantly emitted a blue mist in all directions.

The Zerg were frozen the moment they came into contact with the mist, and then the sound of ice breaking and falling to the ground could be heard continuously, which sounded like heavenly music to Qu Baoguo and the others, allowing them to quicken their pace.

Seeing that they were almost done and inside the base, Qu Baoguo was overjoyed and quickly urged everyone to speed up and run towards the base.

However, just as they were about to step through the base gate, a sharp whistle sounded.

Everyone looked back in terror, only to see an enormous Mother Zerg flying from afar.

Qu Baoguo’s eyes widened; he hadn’t expected such a turn of events. He gritted his teeth and looked at the last remaining freeze bomb in his hand.

At this moment, the Mother Zerg was rapidly approaching, and the Zerg surged forward once more.

They were just about to enter the base, but unexpectedly, such a change occurred; they still needed some time to fully evacuate into the base, but the Mother Zerg was already coming with the Zerg.

Qu Baoguo made a decisive move; he prepared to charge towards the Zerg to attract their attention, while simultaneously throwing the last freeze bomb towards the Mother Zerg.

But before he could act, a thin young man suddenly snatched the box containing the freeze bomb and quickly ran towards the Mother Zerg.

He was just about to turn around to bring the person back, but he was pulled back by another person, who, holding back tears, spoke to Qu Baoguo.

“Qu Ge, hurry, don’t waste the opportunity Xiao Ma bought with his life.”

As Xiao Ma approached and threw the last freeze bomb, he himself was surrounded by the Zerg.

The Mother Zerg seemed to sense danger at this moment and sprayed a stream of green viscous liquid; the freeze bomb was enveloped by the liquid in mid-air but still exploded.

The scattered blue mist froze most of the Zerg again, and even a part of the Mother Zerg’s wings was frozen.

For a time, most of the Zerg were held back, and the remaining ones were easily dealt with by Qu Baoguo and the others?

Seizing this opportunity, the others quickly rushed into the base and blocked the gate.

Qu Baoguo stood inside the door, looking through the crack at the frozen Zerg outside and the submerged Xiao Ma, his heart filled with grief and self-reproach.

Everyone else was also silent, the joy of having just escaped death completely gone.

At this moment, someone suddenly shouted.

“Look, that Mother Zerg seems to have broken free from the ice and is about to emerge!”

Qu Baoguo looked up, only to see the Mother Zerg struggling, cracks already appearing in the ice on its body. He clenched his fists, knowing he had to do something.

However, Qu Baoguo no longer had any freeze bombs in his hand, and his only means of restricting the opponent had been used up.

Now they were left with only about four hundred bullets and less than twenty grenades, as well as the two incendiary bombs Liang Yu had given him.

This was their entire fortune, but facing the Zerg with the Mother Zerg, it was clearly not enough.

They now had only one method left, which was for everyone to go into the basement.

However, there was a drawback to doing this: their original supplies were not very abundant, and now they had taken in so many Survivors; once everyone entered the basement.

If the Mother Zerg nested here with the Zerg, they would be trapped in the basement.

In less than three days, all their supplies would definitely be exhausted, so in Qu Baoguo’s opinion, any choice led to death, it was just a matter of time.

While there was still time, Qu Baoguo immediately called some people to discuss and explained everything to them in detail, without any concealment.

At the same time, the young couple watching the show also discovered the existence of the Mother Zerg; compared to Liang Yu, Lan Ling seemed more shocked, as it was her first time seeing such a large Zerg.

And this Zerg looked very strange, comparable to a deep-sea fish, but Liang Yu felt that comparing a deep-sea fish to the Mother Zerg was clearly an insult to the deep-sea fish.

At this moment, Lan Ling’s small eyes glanced at Liang Yu and she asked casually.

“Don’t you have any thoughts?”

“I estimate they won’t last long, especially that Mother Zerg; it looks very special.”

Lan Ling’s words, to Liang Yu, clearly meant for him to save those people.

However, what Liang Yu was concerned about was that Mother Zerg, because he also hadn’t discovered how that Mother Zerg had arrived at Qu Baoguo’s battlefield.

Its appearance was too sudden; logically, such a large Mother Zerg should not have gone unnoticed.

Seeing that Liang Yu was only thinking and not speaking, Lan Ling also had no intention of urging him.

She could only offer her thoughts; no matter the outcome, she would unconditionally support Liang Yu’s decision.

Only, Lan Ling didn’t know that Liang Yu had already set his sights on that Mother Zerg.
