Calamity Island: Endless Trials

Chapter 159 The Vault of Nothing
Tang Jiumin's gaze quickly fell on the strangely shaped zombie beside him.

Weird.

They were obviously some tall and thin zombies, but their backs were hunched, their backs were abnormally bulging, and there were strange expressions on their rotten faces.

On the wall next to it, there were a group of zombies with hooks on their feet. They were the zombies pretending to climb the wall in the picture that the military had passed on to Tang Jiumin.

And the weirdest thing was not these three types of zombies, but the only zombie surrounded by muscular zombies.

One looked completely white, other than that, there were no special zombies.

Almost at the same time, the complexions of Tang Jiumin and Liu Ziyun changed again. Their eyesight far surpassed that of others, and they naturally saw unusual places.

They saw a strange light emanating from the other party's body. Moreover, Tang Jiumin didn't know if it was his own illusion. The zombie didn't seem to have any wounds on it.

Although the others were not as clear and detailed as Tang Jiumin, everyone could see that the zombie in the middle was special. After all, it was a zombie that had been deliberately protected by other mutated zombies.

It was only a while before the mutated zombies attacked the military. Behind Tang Jiumin, everyone immediately thought of a very bad possibility. Perhaps, the source of the mutation was right in front of them.

At this moment, two anti-riot vehicles were advancing towards dozens of zombies.

When Tang Jiumin observed the group of mutated zombies, those zombies also looked at them.

Especially the special zombie surrounded by all the mutated zombies slowly turned its head and looked this way.

Tang Jiumin clenched his fists and yelled, "E Sihui, turn around!!!"

Almost the moment Tang Jiumin roared, the white zombie also opened its mouth, as if it had said something.

The white zombie did say so.

Because, outside the group of mutated zombies, the backs of those tall and thin hunchbacked zombies swelled up again, and then they all turned their heads in the direction of the anti-riot vehicle and opened their mouths like a bottomless black hole.

In the next second, some blurred black streamers spit out from the mouths of these zombies, flying towards Tang Jiumin and the others.

Tang Jiumin and Liu Ziyun had sharp eyesight, and they warned loudly at the same time.

"Everyone, get down!"

As soon as the words fell, everyone got down on the ground, even E Sihui hurriedly buried his head on the steering wheel.

In the blink of an eye, everyone inside the two anti-riot vehicles heard piercing piercing sounds at the same time.And the culprit that caused all this turned out to be long and thin bone spurs.

Because the material of the anti-riot vehicle itself is very strong, some bone spurs left several inwardly sunken metal pits on the anti-riot vehicle, but failed to penetrate the body.

But at the same time, some penetrated into the car!
The longer bone spurs were nailed into the compartment from the right side of the two anti-riot vehicles!

There are three on each car!

Among them, the longest bone spur almost pierced through the right side of the vehicle panel, piercing into it with a length of about half a meter.

At this moment, everyone in the car felt the threat of death, and they were terrified and grateful:
fortunately!If Liu Ziyun hadn't reminded them at a critical moment, at this moment... I'm afraid they would be dead!
Especially the few people who were within the penetration range of the bone spur, they didn't even dare to raise their heads vigorously, for fear of accidentally bumping into the bone spur, several people crawled and rolled, retreated to the opposite side, away from this area.

"Teacher Tang, the car has already driven out according to your request." E Sihui said at this moment.

It turned out that E Sihui heard the order just now, and subconsciously followed suit, driving around and drifting around the corner.However, what was before him now was an unplanned route, which made him not know what to do for a while.

Of course, even if he didn't know how to get there, E Sihui didn't stop. After all, there were dozens of terrifying mutated zombies behind him, and if he stopped, he would be looking for death.

Tang Jiumin didn't answer immediately.

He looked into the distance, and under the illumination of the car lights, he found that there were obstacles set up by the military in the distance.

"Yefim! Don't delay! Carry the machine gun and blast all the obstacles in front of me!"

Yefim picked up the machine gun silently, and immediately followed Tang Jiumin's instructions to continuously bombard the containers and the separation wall blocked in front.

It was an obstacle defense line temporarily built by the military, and it was not reliable. It was quickly blasted out by a powerful machine gun.

Two anti-riot vehicles roared out of the area.

Until then, they were temporarily far away from the scope of the temporary shelter.

Escape?

No one would think so. The bone spurs on the car make people tense all the time, and they dare not relax at all.

"Head, where are you going next?" E Sihui asked.

"where to."

E Sigui looked in the direction of Tang Jiumin's finger and found that it was a large central bank.

"There?"

"That's right." Tang Jiumin said calmly: "I have investigated before, the central bank and its surrounding areas are the first areas to be cleared by the military. Normally, the number of zombies there should be the least in the entire city."

E Sigui locked the general position, stepped on the accelerator and rushed out.

Along the way, they encountered zombies wandering nearby, some alone or in groups, and even after passing through a few streets, they encountered a few mutated zombies.

Both the strength type and the agility type were available, but under the cover of Yefim's cannon, they could not get close to the anti-riot vehicle.

At this time, everyone had figured out the strength of the mutated zombies. The muscular zombies had strong defenses, but they could only withstand less than 10 energy cannons against Yefim's machine guns.

E Si regretted that the car was driving faster and faster.

Finally, the two vehicles arrived near the central bank without any risk.As Tang Jiumin expected, there were not many zombies here.

Two anti-riot vehicles arrived in front of the Central Bank smoothly.

"Liu Ziyun, be a thunder. E Sihui and Li Changfu, throw the car 500 meters south of us, Yefim, you follow cover. Everyone else, get out of the car and follow me." Tang Jiumin immediately ordered after getting out of the car.

A group of people went straight to the central bank. They walked up to the steps. Liu Ziyun looked at the closed gate, paused, and then showed a puzzled look.

Because in front of the gate of the bank, there was a sign saying "Closed today".

Liu Ziyun subconsciously looked at Tang Jiumin, and suddenly realized that Tang Jiumin brought them here not only to avoid the zombies, but also for other purposes.

Within a few minutes, E Sixui, Li Changfu, and Yefim came back.

"Is everything done?"

"done."

Tang Jiumin nodded when he heard the words, turned around and led everyone into the bank.

Suspension of business does not mean closing the door. The door of the central bank is closed, but it is not locked. It is just a tool with a card door on the ground.

Yefim went up and removed the tool.

The crowd rushed in.

As soon as he got inside, Tang Jiumin immediately had the door closed and began to clean up the few scattered zombies inside.

This is not over yet, after all the zombies were dealt with, Tang Jiumin asked everyone to quickly close the other doors, no matter the side door or the back door, without exception.

With the last side door closed, Tang Jiumin finally had the opportunity to take out the tablet and control the tiny robot to investigate. Of course, he placed the robot outside the bank.

Tang Jiumin stared at the screen for a while, and found that there were only a few zombies around the bank, so he couldn't help but nodded.

According to the military, the zombies in this area should have been cleaned up. As long as the group of zombies don't catch up, they should be safe.

These militaries don't just talk, they handle it well.

But, is it really that simple?
Thinking of this, Tang Jiumin did not let go of his vigilance, but frowned.

Tang Jiumin was suspicious, so he turned his head and told E Sihui: "You can observe the entire south side of the central bank from that corner, and you are responsible for monitoring that side, and report to me immediately if there is any situation."

E Sihui walked over and took his place.

Tang Jiumin led the others into the bank.As soon as he entered, he went straight to the main control computer to check the bank's data system and files.

As for the others, except for Li Changfu who left under Tang Jiumin's orders, they could only watch Tang Jiumin busy alone, not knowing what to do.

In the end, Liu Ziyun looked at Zhang Tiandao who was praying to God and worshiping Buddha, and said hello, and led others to find something to do.

Collect supplies.

Before entering the central bank, Tang Jiumin said that they should collect more usable weapons after entering.

But it doesn't take too much time to collect things. This is just a bank, not a weapon arsenal. The only things collected are conventional weapons such as batons.

People like Zhang Tiandao who are very active in searching things can even find things in two or three strokes.

A group of people suddenly became idle.

However, Liu Ziyun was still worried, so he led people to reinforce the gates and added heavy cabinets to block the gates.

Immediately afterwards, they turned off all the lights on the periphery of the bank, leaving only a few lights in the center. Through the blackout curtain, it is absolutely impossible to see anyone inside from the outside.

As for the zombies, even if they could recognize the smell, it was difficult for them to emit the smell in a closed and spacious environment.

What's more, the military has almost cleaned up the surrounding area.

At this point, central banks look pretty safe.

In such an environment, Tang Jiumin quickly flipped through one file after another, and the other people sitting at the same place could only hear the rustling sound of flipping through books.

Perhaps due to environmental factors, Liu Ziyun and the others were quiet for a while.

However, as time passed, a group of people couldn't bear it anymore and started whispering.

Liu Ziyun did not participate in the discussion.

He looked at the people around him, then at Tang Jiumin, got up and walked to Tang Jiumin.

"What's going on? What problems did you find?" Liu Ziyun asked Tang Jiumin on behalf of himself or a group of people discussing in low voices.

As a result, as soon as he finished asking, he heard Tang Jiumin sneer and said ironically, "We may have made a mistake on an extremely important matter!"

Liu Ziyun's expression froze immediately. He thought that Tang Jiumin might have noticed something that others hadn't, but now that he heard it, it turned out to be true.

Liu Ziyun couldn't help asking, "What did we do wrong?"

"Don't you understand yet?"

"The guns of the special police have just been issued, and the weapons and equipment of the army are also newly issued. Even the explosion-proof vehicles with the license plate numbers of previous years have brand new internal parts."

While talking, Tang Jiumin patted the file in his hand on the table, pointed and said, "Look, this is a file recorded three years ago, and the content naturally shows that it happened three years ago, but this file is actually Very new."

"The current bank is so diligent, updating the file every three years? You should understand that it is normal for the files of this kind of institution to be stored for ten or twenty years, and some are even permanent files!"

Then, Tang Jiumin took out a dozen or so gel pens on the table next to him, and opened them all, revealing the carbon refills inside.

"At the entrance of the Central Bank, the rules and regulations clearly indicate that employees need to use computers and handwriting to record key transactions; therefore, bank employees must use this pen to write various things every day."

"But why are all the refills consumed at the same rate? Almost all refills only consume one-eighth of the total amount."

Liu Ziyun opened his mouth with a look of surprise, but he couldn't explain why.

Fortunately, Tang Jiumin didn't need him to answer, and continued to explain, "It means that the bank staff changed the same refill at the same time."

Tang Jiumin put down the carbon pens, opened the computer case next to him, and pointed inside, "Look at this thing, is it new or old?"

"Is it reasonable that a computer that needs to be used frequently should be clean inside without dust?"

As Tang Jiumin said this, out of the corner of his eye he spotted a figure who had left before. He looked up and asked the person who came, "Did you find it?"

The person who came back was Li Changfu, he nodded, "I found it."

Next to him, Liu Ziyun watched the conversation between the two, and asked again, "What did you find? No, I'm a little confused now, what's going on?"

Li Changfu said, "The head of the group asked me to find the underground private vault. I cut the door and opened it."

Liu Ziyun still wanted to ask, but was interrupted by Tang Jiumin, who asked, "How's the situation inside?"

"The vault was opened, but there was nothing inside." Li Changfu had a strange expression on his face.

"Where is the vault?"

"Go to the right, there is a hidden door in the innermost part, and the combination lock has been opened by me, just go in from there."

Tang Jiumin nodded, "Okay, Liu Ziyun and I will go over and have a look, you tell the others to wait where they are, and we'll be back soon."

When the two walked quickly to the vault, Tang Jiumin stretched out his hand to touch the inside, and as expected, there was dust in his hand.He rubbed it with a sneer, shaking off the dust.

At this time, Tang Jiumin turned around, spread his hands and said, "Look here, where are the things of those rich merchants? Such a big city, there must be no one, right? Then why did they disappear?"

"Because no one enters here, the staff of those banks will not enter here at all, and they will not get permission."

Facing Tang Jiumin's constant contradictions, Liu Ziyun had a hard time keeping up with his train of thought, so he immediately made it clear, "I don't understand."

This time, it was rare for Tang Jiumin not to laugh at Liu Ziyun, a strange gleam appeared in his eyes:

"The city we came to is abnormal everywhere. It's not a certain place, but everything is abnormal."
