Chapter 1316: Oil Formation, Mountains of Corpses and Seas of Fire!

After more than a hundred artillery pieces of various types bombarded the massive zombie tide,

the zombie tide was stagnant, buying time for the oil array to open.

Ten minutes later.

Crack!

Outside the outer wall of the trading market, with the opening of the oil array.

The oil flowed from the oil city through the underground pipeline of the trading market to the outside of the trading market wall.

Boom!

A shell exploded in the zombie tide and ignited the oil at the same time.

Amid the explosion, a flame more than ten meters high rose up.

Hundreds of artillery pieces of various types bombarded and ignited the oil in the oil array at multiple points outside the wall.

Swish!

The burning flames broke out at multiple points, connecting points into lines, and lines into surfaces, and soon formed a sea of ​​fire.

The range covered by the oil array is centered on the oil city, including a radius of four kilometers around it.

These four kilometers are now burning with raging fire.

Sizzle, sizzle——

The sound of the burning flames is a bit harsh.

The heavy rain falling from the sky not only failed to put out the flames, but also helped to fuel the flames.

Because oil and water are immiscible, and oil is lighter than water, it will float on the water.

It will increase the surface area of ​​oil and gas contact, and the fire will increase after the oil and gas are fully in contact.

The fire is getting more and more fierce.

The zombies themselves have a lot of flammable and rotten substances in their bodies. After being contaminated with some oil, they are more likely to burn.

The sea of ​​zombies and fire, all that comes into view are burning zombies.

These zombies are like dry firewood. Once ignited, they can only be extinguished by burning to ashes.

The flames reflected the red sky, and the faces of the guards on the wall of the trading market closest to the sea of ​​fire were all reflected by the flames.

The four words "mountains of corpses and seas of fire" fully express the scene that Chen Er and others saw.

Countless waves of zombies are burning in the flames.

The air is filled with a rotten smell that makes people sick.

In the trading market.

Many survivors ran out of the houses and looked at the flying shells, which turned the whole sky red.

There were discussions among the crowd:

"Is there a big fire outside?"

"It seems so. I heard that there seems to be an oil formation here. When we entered the trading market, didn't you see those small ditches? It should be that."

"This trading market is really fierce, with so many tricks!"

"Yes, I saw the gate when I came in, and it seems to be used to defend against zombies."

"No wonder the Oil City is so confident. It's right to come here."

"If we didn't come in, we would have died in the thunderstorm a few days ago. I still think the thunderstorm a while ago was more terrifying!"

"Have you ever thought about how much oil this consumes?"

"You may have forgotten where this is. This is called Oil City. It was originally a place where oil can be produced. The thing it lacks the least is oil."

"Damn, I almost forgot this. This Oil City is so terrifying!"

After seeing the flying shells and the burning oil formation outside, many survivors were shocked by the powerful foundation of Oil City.

Most people were very grateful that they entered the trading market.

Given the weather these days, they were not confident that they could survive.

But now they can stay here safely.

A sense of relief arises spontaneously.

The area where the people of Southern Paradise are located.

Tiger Lord walked out of the room. Even standing here, he could still feel some heat coming from outside. You can imagine how big the flames are!

"Tiger Lord, this should be what they call the oil array. Look at the sky, it is burning red. I don't know how much oil is used. It's really luxurious!" Wu Xing looked at the sky and sighed.

Luxurious!

They need to take out various materials from Southern Paradise to exchange for fuel with Oil City.

Every time the fuel is exchanged, it must be used sparingly.

But this Oil City directly took so much oil, but used it to burn zombies!

I'm afraid that the amount burned this time alone is at least dozens of tons.

Otherwise, it would never form such a large sea of ​​fire.

After all, it surrounds such a large area of ​​the entire trading market.

Tiger Master, wearing slippers, looked at the red clouds in the sky and said with emotion:

"It seems that the effect of blocking zombies should be quite good."

As he said that, his brows slightly frowned.

I felt that my breathing was not smooth.

Wu Xing next to him took two deep breaths and said:

"Am I the only one who feels a little suffocated?"

"Why do I feel that the oxygen is not enough?"

A person next to him hurriedly said: "Brother Wu, I also feel a little dizzy. Are the smells of these burning zombies poisonous?"

"How is it possible? It's been the last few years of the apocalypse. Isn't it clear how zombies spread? It can only be done by biting and breaking the skin!" said another person.

Tiger Master frowned and looked at the fire in the sky.

"Combustion requires oxygen in the air. Such a large oil array burns and instantly extracts a lot of oxygen, which will definitely cause some hypoxia."

Hearing Tiger Master say this, everyone was a little worried.

"Ah?"

The men around him asked in panic:

"Will we suffocate to death?"

Wu Xing cursed: "How is it possible? We are not completely enclosed. Isn't there air circulation in the air?"

"Yes."

After taking a deep breath, Tiger Lord said:

"Don't worry, everyone. Although there will be some hypoxia, it will definitely not be fatal."

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief when they heard Master Hu say this.

But the feeling of lack of oxygen is really uncomfortable.

Wall of trading market.

Zhu Xiao felt hot all over. He reached out and touched the wall in front of him, and it was also a little hot.

They were closest to the sea of ​​zombie fire, and the rainwater on the wall was baked and hot.

He quickly took a few steps back.

Sweat beaded on his forehead.

The rain was still falling, lowering the temperature a bit.

But the feeling of being unable to take a breath made him extremely uncomfortable.

Chen Er looked a little depressed and said to Zhu Xiao:

"Have you used this oil formation before?"

Zhu Xiao nodded slightly and said:

"We have used it before, but not on the scale it is now."

Seeing the worry in Chen Er's eyes, he said with relief: "Don't worry, lack of oxygen is normal. You will get used to it after a while."

Chen Er covered his chest and leaned against the wall of the sentry tower behind.

But it seemed that he still couldn't support his body, so he had to sit on the wall full of water.

The wall was covered with rainwater. He sat down and his buttocks were soaked in the rainwater.

After sitting down, it took him a while to feel better.

He slowly climbed up holding on to the wall.

Sure enough, after getting used to it for a while, the extremely dizzy feeling disappeared.

But I still have some slight difficulty breathing.

Beyond the walls.

The zombies were like being fried in a pan of oil, being devoured by flames at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Chen Er watched quietly as one of the zombies, covered in flames, surged forward crazily.

Some of the zombies in front were also covered in flames.

The zombie wave completely turned into a sea of ​​fire.

The third uncle stood on the wall of the Oil City. After seeing the excellent results achieved by the opening of the oil array, he picked up the walkie-talkie and issued an order:

"All artillery, suspend attacks!"

"receive!"

"receive!"

Ten seconds later, as the last shell was fired, the explosion that lasted for more than ten minutes finally stopped.

The explosion just now was so loud that it made people's ears buzz.

At this time, the explosion suddenly stopped, which made people feel a little uncomfortable.

Xiao Jun took off the noise-canceling headset, and a roar of zombies came.

It makes people tremble when they hear it.

He picked up the telescope and looked carefully at the zombie wave in the distance.

In the sea of ​​​​fire, the zombie tide was successfully held back, and countless zombies were burning.

call--

Breathing a sigh of relief, he picked up the walkie-talkie and asked Marcelon:

"Mr. Ma, how much oil do we have in reserve?"

Marseille, who was staying in the oil warehouse in Oil City, heard Xiao Jun's inquiry and replied:

"I just took inventory, and there are still 2,000 tons of oil, 450 tons of gasoline, and 350 tons of diesel."

After hearing him say that there were still 2,000 tons left, Xiao Jun did some calculations.

Nearly 40 tons of oil have just been injected. If this is the case, it can be done again fifty times.

Based on previous experience, a burning session can last at least half a day.

However, the burning area was not so large before, and the oil array built outside the Oil City was not even a quarter of the current size.

Calculated roughly based on the area, the oil should be able to burn for about three hours.

Fifty times, you should be able to burn for 150 hours.

It can keep burning for about 6 days.

After calculating this data, Xiao Jun's heart sank.

But then he thought about it, there was no need to keep burning.

Just wait for the zombies to arrive at the oil array, accumulate a wave, and burn again.

This way the time can be extended.

"Count the remaining shells!" Third Uncle said to Xiao Jun next to him.

After finishing speaking, he walked towards the wall.

His physique is relatively good, and it only took him a few minutes to get used to the somewhat hypoxic environment.

Drenched all over, he dragged the rain all over his body back to the conference room.

Leaning next to the operator, he said to the operator:

"Contact the headquarters base and report today's situation."

"Okay, Minister."

The operator immediately adjusted the channel and contacted the headquarters base.

"This is oil town."

"Minister, the call has been connected!" The operator turned to the third uncle and said.

The third uncle asked him to stand up and put on the headset himself.

There are some things that are not convenient for everyone to know, such as the fact that they brought zombie attracting potion this time.

"Third uncle, second uncle is here. What's going on here?"

Li Yu asked while sitting in the hall on the ground floor.

Dong Ying assembled many long-wave wireless radio stations. In addition to placing several in the duty room, he also placed one in the conference room.

In order to be able to contact Third Uncle and the others at any time, Li Yu placed another one in the villa.

"The situation is not optimistic!"

The third uncle twisted the rainwater from his trouser legs with one hand and continued:

"There are too many people in the trading market, and the number of zombies is terrifying. I think there may be as many as the last time the potion was released in the north!"

After all, it was the zombie attracting potion that was put in that time, which attracted so many zombies.

Those are tens of millions of zombies!

The second uncle's expression was a little solemn and he glanced at Li Yu:

"It is indeed possible. After all, it is in the Central Plains. There are originally more zombies than in the north."

The third uncle continued:

"Don't worry, you don't have to worry. Now the zombie wave has been suppressed. I ordered the artillery to be fired. The combination of the mobile knife and the oil array can completely resist the zombie wave at this stage!"

When Li Yu heard what his third uncle said, he was not relieved.

On the contrary, I was even more worried.

So many heavy weapons, mobile knives, and even oil formations.

Among other forces, it is considered to be a strong confidence at the bottom of the box.

But now he used them all to suppress the tens of millions of zombies.

You can imagine how terrifying this zombie wave is.

This is why the Northern Territory, which was so powerful at the beginning, can no longer withstand the tens of millions of zombies.

What's more, the wall in the north is twice as high as that in Oil City.

Thinking of this, Li Yu couldn't help but think of the current northern border.

Can those affiliated force members resist?

but.

Those members of the affiliated forces in the North certainly don't have to face tens of millions of zombies like the current Oil City or the original Northern Tigers.

Firstly, there were not many people, and secondly, no zombie attracting potions were used, so the number of zombies attracted by the popularity should not be many.

But whether they can survive it depends on their own destiny.

When he left, he had returned all the weapons to them.

Including the protection fees previously paid, they were also returned to them.

Just hope they can survive.

Even if these people really can't bear it and die in the zombie wave, it is their own choice.

After all, they were given two choices, one was to move to Oil City.

Another option is to stay in the northern outer city.

Li Yu frowned and asked:

"How many more days can the oil last?"

The third uncle remembered the calculation that Xiao Jun told him just now.

"Continuous burning can last for about 6 days. If you burn at intervals, it will be at least half a month, but it can only last for 20 days at most."

Li Yu didn't know how long this natural disaster would last. After all, Qingyuan's divination results were very general, just a few months, up to half a year.

months.

2 to 6 months counts as a few months.

well.

Now Oil City is running out of cards.

There are only Big Mac and zombie attracting potions.

With such a heavy rain, drones and helicopters cannot fly. If you want to use zombie attracting medicine, you can only transport the medicine through a Big Mac.

"How many shells are left?" the second uncle suddenly asked.

The third uncle opened his mouth and replied:

"Time was running out just now, so I issued a free bombing order, and the ammunition is still being counted."

With that, he said to Li Yu and his second brother:

"Second brother, Xiaoyu, I think our base arsenal still needs to be strengthened and find a way to supply artillery shells. I know it is very difficult, but I still do it."

"We can't wait until all the shells are gone before we do this."

"The third child."

After the second uncle heard what the third uncle said, he explained:

"You have been away from the headquarters for a while. In fact, the headquarters has changed quite a lot recently. In fact, it has already begun to develop how to produce its own artillery shells."

"You still remember the last time I went to the Wu City military base. There were two bullet production lines inside.

There is also a cannonball production line, but the cannonball production line may have been stored for too long, and several molds have problems.

Now in the fourth outer city, competition has been used to let the experts find a solution. "

"Whoever can solve the mold problem and achieve self-production of cannonballs, I promise to give them an outer city status!"

"How's the progress?" The third uncle asked quickly after hearing this.

"Great, why didn't you tell me last time?" Third Uncle said with a smile.

This was the best news he had heard today.

The second uncle said helplessly:

"Didn't you say you came back and looked at the list?"

"Besides, don't expect too much.

That artillery shell production line was very crude, the output was very low, and the caliber of the artillery shells it produced was relatively small.”

"Forehead"

Third Uncle's laughter stopped suddenly, so it's better not to say anything!

(asking for monthly ticket)
