The Walking Dead: Rebuild

Chapter 145 Salvation Army

After the battle to seize the warship, Leon was not in a hurry to return to the base. Now, most of the zombies in Florida have been led to the war front by the Shark Gang. The city of Miami, which was originally dense with zombies, has now become empty. .

He smoked a cigar and watched Constantine and other survivors escorting Cuban soldiers off the warship, preparing to find some vehicles to bring these young prisoners back to the base for labor reform.

Kevela led little Clementine and walked to his side, her long red hair flying gently in the sea breeze.

The red-haired girl glanced at the soldiers killed by Leon on the deck. Thinking back to her lover's strength in the battle, she couldn't help but curl up the corner of her mouth with a charming arc, and said softly:
"Honey, why are we still here, why don't we go back to the base?"

Leon exhaled a puff of smoke, reached out and touched little Clementine's head, looked at the center of Miami city, and said:
"We have basically eliminated the wings of the Shark Gang. I am going to take people to their base to have a look."

"If we can take advantage of this opportunity to destroy their base in one fell swoop, then there will be no obstacles for us to occupy Florida."

Kevira snorted softly, looked at the giant Tom on the dock with great interest, and walked into the sea water to clean his armor, and said:

"Even if it is occupied, so what?"

"Most areas in Florida are highly radioactive, and most of the resources are contaminated by radiation. It doesn't feel like it makes much sense for us to occupy it."

Leon chuckled and reached out to pinch his little wife's cheek, but the red-haired girl slapped her away with a roll of her eyes.

"Don't you believe my eyes?"

"You haven't become an infected person yet, so you don't know that specially mutated zombies are actually a very precious resource."

"Maybe not long in the future, there will be a kind of zombie technology in our world."

"It will completely change our lives now."

Kevela snorted, ignored her husband, and turned around to take little Clementine to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the seaside.

Only Lyon was left happily planning his own transformation of Florida.

At the same time, in the Sackham Building more than ten kilometers away from them.

Lawrence had already seen Hibbert's defeat through the monitoring of military satellites.

Although limited by the clarity of satellite photography, he was unable to distinguish most of the battle details, but the fact that the cruiser was captured by the People's Federation still gave him an extremely strong sense of frustration.

To be honest, when the war reached this point, he almost completely lost confidence in his heart.

Today, except for the members of the Shark Gang who are still leading the zombie horde to attack Georgia, there are only more than 30 low-level spies and more than 40 institute staff left in the secret institute.

Relying on these remaining forces, it is almost impossible to fight against the Awami League.

Without the support of General Tamasi, his plan has completely failed.

As for the only way out, the option of seeking help from the Freemasons was completely abandoned by him the moment it appeared in his mind.

As a loser who has failed twice in a row, if he continues to ask for help from the organization, he will completely discredit His Highness the Son of God. This is something he would rather die than happen.

Just as he was thinking about countermeasures and angry at his failure, a low-level spy under his command suddenly walked into his command room and reported:
"Director Lawrence, a group of survivors suddenly appeared outside our base. They were armed with weapons and have surrounded the entire Sackham Building."

Hearing the news, Lawrence's heart tightened, and the palm holding the mouse unconsciously exerted force. The modified power directly crushed the mouse into a ball of dregs.

There was no expression on his face, and he gently put down the mouse that had turned into debris in his hand. He concealed the panic in his heart, looked at his low-level spy and said:
"I understand, just continue working normally."

"Don't worry. With the defense measures in our institute, even if we are hit by a nuclear bomb, we will be safe."

The spies under him knew nothing about the current battle situation, and they didn't know that their boss, Hibbert, had been captured by the enemy. After hearing the order from Director Lawrence, he retreated without hesitation.

He didn't notice at all that the supervisor sitting on the podium was already livid.

And in a room a few kilometers away from the Sackham Building, Leon was directing Constantine and his survivors to explore the situation in the building through a communicator and a high-definition camera.

Hundreds of survivors searched up and down for more than ten minutes, and finally found the passage to the mysterious research institute in a hidden tea room on the first floor.

As a once famous private detective, Constantine is already familiar with these things.

Under his leadership, no less than 50 hidden cameras were dismantled along the way, making Lawrence, who had been carefully monitoring their situation, grit his teeth in anger.

Lawrence looked at the large number of survivors with a gloomy expression. Under the leadership of the sloppy man, he opened the mechanism in the tea room and found the metal door of the shelter.

Watching them fumble around the gate of the institute, and finally have no choice but to stand by silently.

He gritted his teeth and was silent for nearly 5 minutes before finally making a decision.

…………

A few minutes later, when he heard the news from Constantine, Leon couldn't help showing a surprised look on his face.

"You mean, the protective door of the institute opened by itself, and no one rushed out to stop you from entering?"

Constantine was also a little puzzled. Logically speaking, the enemy would definitely try their best to prevent them from entering the research institute, so why did they open the door to welcome them now?

"Yes, boss, I guess there must be a scam inside, so I didn't send anyone in to test it."

After thinking for tens of seconds, Leon sighed slightly and said:
"I've probably guessed the enemy's plan."

"This is a conspiracy."

"They have limited manpower now. Even if they rush out, they won't cause any harm to us."

"And if we occupy this place, we will definitely send people to guard all the exits and cut off their escape route."

"The resources in the research institute will eventually be used up. Therefore, instead of hiding in the research institute and waiting to die silently, they simply open the door wide and use means unknown to us inside to consume our soldiers and serve us. Bring harm."

Constantine was silent for more than ten seconds and agreed with the president's conjecture, so he asked:
"Boss, what will happen if we continue to stand still and trap them to death?"

Leon said helplessly:
"A secret research institute affiliated with Freemasonry. You know what kind of value it contains without even thinking about it."

"What they're betting on is that we can't bear to give up such a big piece of fat."

Constantine laughed, and tentatively said in a teasing tone:

"Then boss, what should we do now?"

"Do you want me to send some people in to explore the way?"

Leon heard the meaning of his words and didn't care much. After thinking about it, he said:

"I never fight unprepared."

"You leave some people to continue guarding the door, while others go explore this building and take out all their eyes left outside." "I want to think of a way to see if I can eat this at the minimum cost." A piece of fat."

And while the United Human Community was fighting fiercely with the Shark Gang, members of the Kingdom of God as far away as New Jersey also encountered a sudden robbery.

In a small town more than ten kilometers away from the Kingdom of God.

With a solemn expression, Richard and his three companions hid behind several bunkers, holding the assault rifle traded from the People's Federation tightly in their hands, and shouted at the group opposite:
"Who exactly are you?"

"If you want to steal these supplies, just take them away."

"We don't want to conflict with you."

Opposite Richard were a dozen survivors wearing strange red metal armor, with various bullet holes and repair marks on their bodies.

They have a variety of weapons in their hands, including rifles, pistols, shotguns and other firearms. There are also various cold weapons on their waists or behind their backs, machetes, tomahawks, and some even hold harpoons more than one meter long. .

However, unlike ordinary survivors, these people had a certain kind of fanatical emotion on their faces, and their cloudy eyes were full of fearlessness in battle.

But what attracts the most attention is that the front and chest of their armor are all sprayed with black paint with a baseball bat pattern tied with iron chains.

After hearing Richard's question, the leader, a 1.9-meter-tall white man, smashed his hands on the ground with a big axe, and shouted loudly:
“We are the Salvation Army.”

"Our purpose is not for such a small amount of supplies."

"Take us to your camp."

"Let your people join our Salvation Army."

"As long as you become one of us, you will all be protected by Negan."

"Negan will keep us alive in this world."

After the strong white man said this, the other members around him also laughed.

However, such a loud sound quickly attracted the attention of the surrounding zombies.

Looking at the dozen zombies surrounding them, Richard thought the three of them could take this opportunity to escape.

However, soon, the group of people who called themselves the Salvation Army showed their combat effectiveness completely different from ordinary survivors.

The strong white man just separated out two warriors wearing metal armor, and they could easily kill the dozens of zombies by relying on their defenses and using the cold weapons in their hands.

With their skillful movements and unhurried rhythm, it was obvious that the group of people in front of them were all warriors who had experienced hundreds of battles in the apocalypse.

However, even if there was a huge disparity in combat power between the two sides, Richard would never tell the group of people in front of him the location of the Kingdom of God camp.

After all, in the kingdom of gods, there are all their relatives and friends, who they want to protect with all their lives.

After waiting for 2 minutes, seeing that there was still no other reaction from Richard and others, the strong white man commanded his men to surround them from other directions, cutting off their escape route, and then said impatiently:
"Don't try to escape. Anyone who disobeys Negan will be severely punished."

He squinted his eyes, looked at the four Richards, pointed a shotgun at a young man less than 20 years old, and said threateningly:

"And don't try to resist."

"Although we don't want to solve this problem in a bloody way."

"But if you have to use the blood of your companions to understand the current situation, we will not be lenient."

The strong white man's severe threats made Richard feel cold. He was not afraid of his own death, but there were three companions around him, one was his friend, one was his apprentice, and the other was the son of his savior. .

Everyone is someone he values ​​very much.

If Richard were to watch the other three people die, it would be more difficult for him to accept than killing him.

Richard gritted his teeth, looked at the panicked and terrified eyes of his companions, with mixed emotions in his heart, finally sighed, took the lead out of the bunker, and put down the weapon in his hand.

As long as no companions are sacrificed, everything can still be redeemed.

Now they can only pin their hopes on Ezekiel, the leader of the Kingdom of God.

I hope this leader who is worthy of everyone's trust can save them.

Moreover, not far from the Kingdom of God is the stronghold of the People's League.

No matter how powerful the people in front of them are, can they still compare to the United Human Community that occupies a state?

With the guard captain Richard taking the lead, the other three Kingdom of God guards also looked at each other, and then put down their weapons with helplessness and luck.

No one is not afraid of death. They are anxious and don't know what kind of treatment they will receive next.

Seeing that the four men had surrendered, the strong white man nodded with satisfaction. Immediately, his men moved forward and took away the assault rifles from Richard and others, and handed them to the strong white man.

He looked at the almost [-]% new assault rifle in his hand, and he could even smell the oil on it, and he immediately had a doubt in his mind.

Could it be that the guys in front of them had just stolen an arsenal? Otherwise, how could they have such brand-new weapons?velvet.

Now that the person is in his hands, the strong white man didn't hide his thoughts, and asked immediately:
"Where did the gun in your hand come from? Why is it brand new, as if it had just been unpacked?"

Richard's eyes flashed and he did not answer the other party's question. Seeing that the captain did not answer, several other people also closed their mouths and lowered their heads without responding.

However, today is not the civilized society it was in the past.

Seeing that the four people across from him were still trying to be harsh, the strong white man sneered immediately, looked at the youngest man, walked up to him, and slapped him hard with his iron-gloved palm.

With a scream, the strong metal glove directly slapped the young man who was less than 20 years old to the ground. Not only did he get several bloody gashes on his face, but also knocked out several teeth in his mouth. pellets.

After the slap, the strong white man didn't give up and stepped on the young man's chest with his hard boot. The young man let out a gasping cry of pain, and at the same time stared at Richard with cold eyes and asked. :
"Don't try to refuse my question. You are in our hands now. Cheating or refusing will only bring you physical pain."

Richard looked at the apprentice with a painful face under the strong man's feet, gritted his teeth, and finally said through gritted teeth:

“We met a powerful organization and reached a transactional and cooperative relationship with them.”

"You have to think clearly. For those who hurt us, you will definitely get revenge from that organization. It is a large organization with tens of thousands of members, and it is not someone you can mess with."

The strong white man's expression changed upon hearing this, and he stared coldly at Richard's face, as if he wanted to see if this man was lying.

Ten seconds later, he lowered his head and pondered for a while, then turned around and said to his companions:
"Bring them back to the base. Whether this is true or not, it needs to be judged by Mr. Negan."
