Survival in the game world begins with Biochemical 2

Chapter 117 Entering the Old City for the First Time

Early the next morning, lights guarded the base.

After these days of development, the total number of light guards has reached their early forties.

Karim and veteran Martin carefully selected and finally selected 20 people.After they lined up neatly and brought supplies, they set off in a mighty manner.

Karim did not stay behind this time, but moved with the large army.Important figures such as Racine, Dyke, Troy, and Martin also accompanied him.

As for the remaining dozen people in the organization, as well as the defense and daily operations of the base, Karim followed Li You's wishes and handed them over to Mr. Alexei.

Although the old man is not good at management, his decades of experience have given him a stable attitude towards doing things.During the management's absence, Alexei and Kristoff just had to keep the organization running at a minimum.

As for Li You, he had already gone to the tunnel construction site early in the morning to confirm the progress there.

After receiving the full assistance of Crane and others, the two brothers' plan progressed very smoothly, and the blasting was completed yesterday evening.

If we go according to the original plan, the tunnel should have been completely cleaned early this morning.

The light guards were about to set off here, and on the other side of the tower, Bracken also came out with all the elites, leaving only a few guards on the tower.

Bracken led the team, with Jade beside him, and behind him were fourteen tower combatants, also fully armed.

As for Amir, he had been asked to leave by Li You early because among everyone, only he and Crane had mastered the skills of flying a helicopter.

Basic qualities of an agent.

Li You, the fake agent, is inevitably a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, he could explain. After all, as the commander-in-chief, he certainly couldn't work part-time as a pilot.As for Crane, Li You valued his combat effectiveness more, so Amir became a dedicated pilot without hesitation.

Both the light guard and the tower were on their way, while Li You was walking in the newly opened tunnel to confirm safety.

In the tunnel, there are still many people moving back and forth, carrying gravel and soil.Li You took a look, but found that they did not seem to be the light guards, nor did they belong to the tower.

He pulled one over and asked, "You don't seem to be one of our members?"

The man stopped and said, "I'm just a survivor living alone, not just me, but all of us."

"Everyone heard that you were going to Zone Zero to fight the Rice Gang, and they all wanted to do something. But we can't fight, so we can only help with these chores, so that you can save some energy and kill more people. A thug from the Rice Gang!"

Li You responded with a smile: "Thank you for your help, don't worry, the Rice Gang won't be arrogant for long!"

The survivor nodded and continued moving bricks.

Li You quickly walked through the tunnel and confirmed its safety.

He called up the system map again and looked at the route marked on it.

There is a certain distance between the favela and the old city, not just a tunnel, but a large, almost oval circle along the bay.

The slums and the old city are sandwiched between the bay and facing each other from a distance.

The famous "Bridge of Sin" originally connected the old city and the slums.

In the game DLC, the gymnasium occupied by the Bozak tribe is located in the old city, on the other side of the Bridge of Sin.

But now, the Bridge of Sin has been broken, making it impassable.

As for the two tunnels controlled by the Rice Gang, they are both located in the city behind the Rice Building, which is an area that is inaccessible in the game.If it weren't for Karim's information, Li You really wouldn't have been able to find this place.

To reach the tunnel, you must first pass through the almost completely abandoned urban area behind the Rice Building.There, let alone survivors, even zombies are hard to see.

Behind this uninhabited area is the tunnel under construction.The distance is indeed quite far, so Mr. Dar and the two brothers Tolga and Fatan have been busy recently and have not returned to the light guard.

In fact, if the player climbs to the top of the tower at night in the game and looks around, he will find that in the west of the tower, in the area outside the separation wall, there are many tall buildings, which are brightly lit at night.

In the slums and the old city across the bay, only faint purple lights can be seen.

As for the abandoned city area that Li You and the others were passing through, there was thick smoke billowing all day long, and it was pitch black and dead at night.

Today everyone set off for the old city. If Li You hadn't arranged the task in advance and found and repaired enough vehicles throughout the slums, it would have taken more than a day just to drive from the slums to the old city.

In fact, some people have suggested before that we should go by water or take a boat, which would make the distance closer.

Of course Li You also thought about transporting people by water.It is also mentioned in the game that there are still functioning ships at the dock, but any ship trying to leave Harran will be directly sunk by the military.

But they didn't plan to sail away, they just went to the old city.

Unfortunately, after asking Spike, the quartermaster in the tower, Li You was disappointed to learn that all the large ships were driven away or blown up when the Rice gang retreated.The only boats that can still be used today are small canoes used for sightseeing.

So in the end they had no choice but to take the overland route.

But the problem is not big. Apart from the slightly longer distance, the safety of this route is actually guaranteed.After all, the Rice Gang had used this route to travel between the old city and the slums.

And Karim also came with him. Although he had only been to the old city once or twice after joining the Rice Gang, he still remembered the general situation of this route.

So to briefly summarize, the route to the old city is to start from behind the Rice Building, pass the road, pass through the abandoned city, and reach the tunnel.

Then through the tunnel, you can bypass the separation wall and reach the old city.

It sounds a bit complicated, but it's actually easy to find.

Li You was still carefully observing the terrain of the abandoned city, but suddenly his expression changed and he turned off the system map.

Mr. Dahl came with the two brothers.

"Mr. Li, we have completed the task of clearing the tunnel. If there is nothing else, we will go back first."

Neither Mr. Dar nor the two brothers Tolga and Fatan were combatants. Li You nodded and said, "No problem. Take the survivors here back by the way. Don't let them move around here."

"I always feel like something is watching us in this abandoned city."

After hearing this, Mr. Dahl was also surprised and nodded quickly: "Okay! I'll call someone right away."

Mr. Dar and the two brothers had just left when Crane found Li You again.

Li You was a little helpless: he read novels before time travel. After the protagonists became the boss, they all worked as hands-off shopkeepers. Why was he so busy?

Of course, Crane didn't know what Li You was complaining about. He was carrying a ranger bow on his back, playing with an arrow with a somewhat unique shape in his hand, and said to Li You:
"The combatants guarding the tower and lights will arrive soon. I just saw the convoy in the distance when I was watching the wind."

"Next, you are going to take them into the old city to fight the Les gang?"

Li Youyou: "That's about it. Don't look at me like that. I know that compared to the Rice Gang, our manpower is at an absolute disadvantage, but in such a big old city, the Rice Gang can't take care of everything."

"And don't forget, we have absolute air supremacy. As long as the conflict is controlled within a small area, I am confident that the Rice Gang will not be our opponent."

Crane thought about his surprise when he saw Li You arriving in a helicopter in the early morning, and also thought about Yuzi's majesty when he hit a bunch of infected people, and he had no objection to this.

"Then what can I do?" he asked after thinking about it.

"Oh?" Li You glanced at him, "You still decided to help us?"

Crane did not answer immediately, but looked down at his hands, then clenched his fists and said: "Although I have not had direct contact with the Rice Gang, I have also heard about them from other survivors during this time. ."

"I dare say that any normal person would hate what they did."

"I'm just here for the first time, but it doesn't affect me to have my own likes and dislikes. Besides, even if it's for the children in the tower, I should do my part."

"So...I wish to join the Light Guard."

Li You smiled and extended his hand to him: "Then, on behalf of the Light Guard, I would like to formally welcome you to join, Mr. Kyle Crane."

The two hands were clasped together vigorously.

"Brother Li You——!"

Familiar shouts came, and Li You and Kelan turned their heads to look at Racine running in the distance.

"What are you doing? A pre-war declaration? Count me in!"

Racine said, holding out his fist.

Li You and Kelan looked at each other and smiled, then stretched out their fists and touched Racine.

"And us."

The three of them looked at the sound.Bracken, Jade, Amir, Karim... everyone gathered together, with a determined look on everyone's face.

Looking at everyone who came around, Li You suddenly felt a surge of blood in his heart. He changed from his usual gentleness, laughed boldly a few times, and stretched out his hand:

"This time, the Rice Gang will be defeated!"

"The Les gang must be destroyed!!"

Everyone stretched out their hands and folded them together.Then Li You raised his right hand high and clenched his fist tightly: "Let's go!"

"Oh--!!"

……

Old Town.

Harran is actually a city with a long history, and its original origins can even be traced back to the ninth century BC. The earliest settlement was born by the Emerald Lake in the old city.

Over the past thousands of years, the land of Harran has continuously changed hands, and new people and new ethnic groups have continued to come here, bringing different cultures with them, eventually forming the complex cultural landscape of the old city of Harran.

In the Old Town, you can find faces with almost all different characteristics in the world, as well as characteristic buildings from all over the world.

However, one common feature is that the buildings here are relatively low and maintain a retro style.It is very different from slums and inaccessible new urban areas.

Later this morning.

South of the old city, tunnel exit.

Although the tunnel had long been blown up by the Rice gang, a cautious villain like Rice would certainly not let down his guard.

He still set up a large defense station outside the tunnel exit, and placed a dozen guards here to stand guard every day.

However, because this tunnel passes through the southern foothills, it is actually quite long. In addition, the soldiers of the Rice Gang can never get rid of an old problem-discipline. Therefore, even if the two brothers Tolga and Fatan use drills, The explosion cleared the tunnel, but the guards still found nothing unusual.

They are still immersed in their depravity every day.

After all, what pressure can there be on guarding a passage that has long since been blown down?
If you manage enough survival supplies, you don't need to change shifts. Just clean up a few infected people who are living or dying near the site every day. Don't make the job too easy.

A defense station with more than a dozen people ended up with only one person on duty every day. This was outrageous.

As for the others, most of them were sleeping day and night, while the other half were playing cards and drinking. They were not doing their jobs anyway.So naturally, no one, including the yawning sentry, noticed that a black shadow came from the depths of the tunnel and slowly stuck to the sentry's back.

The sentry didn't notice anything, but a pair of hands grabbed his head and neck from behind, and then twisted hard!
There was a faint clicking sound, and the sentry fell softly.

The flashlight that fell to the ground reflected a ray of light, illuminating the shadow's face.

Kyle Crane.

Crane picked up the flashlight, waved it towards the depths of the tunnel, flashed it a few times, and then turned it off.

After a while, Jade and Bracken also came out, and then looked at Crane.

Crane pointed to the entrance to the original guard room and gestured to indicate that everyone else was inside.

Jade looked at Bracken, who took out a bundle of homemade grenades from his backpack.

Crane understood the idea and quietly came to the door. After making eye contact with Bracken, he opened the iron door!
Inside the iron gate, smoke filled the air and the smell of alcohol hit one's nose. Rice's gang was divided into two tables and playing cards.

When the iron door was opened, none of them gave a warning of battle. Instead, they all turned to look at the door in shock.

The expressions on these people's faces were like those of middle school students who were caught playing with their mobile phones in class and were caught by their class teacher.

Bracken had already pulled off the grenade ring, then raised his hand and threw the grenade string into the door!

With quick eyes and quick hands, Crane immediately closed the door and then rushed aside!
"Boom--!!"

A series of explosions came from inside the door, and the impact of the grenade caused the iron door to twist and deform, but almost no screams could be heard.

The results speak for themselves.

Thanks again to the Rice Gang for their strict discipline.

After confirming that everyone at the defense site had been cleared, the three Crans nodded to each other. Then Jed took out a flare from his bag, came to the entrance of the tunnel, ignited it, and waved it widely.

This is the signal of agreement.

Not long after, the sound of rolling wheels and the roar of engines began to be heard in the tunnel. Car lights pierced the darkness like sharp swords and rushed out from the depths!

Racine stood up from the passenger seat of the car at the front, stuck his head out and shouted to the three Crans: "It's coming, it's coming! Come on -!!"

Dike was driving the car. Their car was a specially modified off-road vehicle with a fender and a bumper installed on the front end just for opening roads.

They took the lead and headed straight for the iron fence blocking the tunnel exit!

Seeing that the collision was about to happen, Racine immediately returned to his seat, fastened his seat belt, and then the entire car slammed into the wire gate!

"boom--!!"

With a loud crash and the sound of metal tearing, Racine and Deck's road car crashed through the iron gate and rushed out of the tunnel!
The off-road vehicle ran over the iron fence, shook violently on the ground several times, and almost rolled over.But fortunately, Dyke's driving skills were good, he managed to stabilize the car and stopped in time before the car hit the isolation pile outside the exit.

After his operation, the off-road vehicle was seriously damaged and it was obviously on the verge of death.

But its mission has been completed. Originally, in the plan jointly formulated by Li You, Troy and other members of the Ember Organization, cars would not be used to move around the old city.

The roads in the old city are narrow, and after the zombie outbreak, they were blocked everywhere, making it extremely difficult for vehicles to pass.Moreover, the old city is now basically dominated by the Rice Gang. Driving will undoubtedly make you a living target.

As a result, the following vehicles stopped at the entrance of the tunnel, and then the members of the tower and light guards got off the car one after another, and formed a neat queue under the organization of Bracken and veteran Martin.

Veteran Martin was appointed operational commander, and Bracken was deputy commander.Because only Martin had experience in commanding operations, Bracken was well-known among the survivors in the ghetto and could suppress everyone.

Li You had already chosen the target and order of attack based on Troy's intelligence and his own memory.

Bracken opened the note given by Li You, read it, and gave it to Martin.

Martin looked at the map, talked with Troy on the side, and confirmed the first target.

"There is an isolation area called New Antalya Apartments nearby. There is a Les outpost next to the isolation area, which was transformed from the original survivor safety area."

"Don't worry about the isolation area. Let's take down this outpost first to avoid exposing our traces. Then we will set off immediately to attack the first key stronghold——"

"radio station."

Yes, according to Li You and Troy's plan, the first Rice Gang stronghold that must be captured is the radio station.

The radio station was one of the two outposts of the Rice Gang in the old city in the original game. The entire building was completely occupied by them, so Savi of the Ember Organization asked Crane to help clean it up.

In this regard, Li You had to say that by letting Crane deal with twenty or thirty gun-wielding soldiers from the Rice Gang in the radio station building alone, the people of the Ember Organization really thought highly of him.

Of course, in the plot, Crane, as the protagonist, successfully defeated the two outposts of the Rice Gang and severely dealt a blow to the Rice Gang's power in the old city.

But that was all the plot in the original game. In today's old city, everything is different.

Martin issued an order to everyone, divided them into small teams, and first went to the apartment building to hide and wait.

So, under the leadership of the team leaders, everyone dispersed smoothly after exiting the tunnel, followed different routes, and entered the blind spot of the outpost's field of vision.

But after exiting the tunnel, the faces of Bracken and the others were not very good-looking.

In the game, there were originally a large number of infected people on the streets of the old city, and Li You and Troy told them so.

Because this is the area where the virus first broke out, the infected people gathered here are more powerful and more vicious, and there is also a powerful special type of infected people that is not found in the slums - the Crusher.

But now, when everyone sees the old city, the streets are very deserted. There are only one or two infected people crawling and moving on the ground occasionally, and there are no piles of zombies coming at all.

This is completely inconsistent with the intelligence of Li You and Troy.

And there is no doubt that the only one who can lead away or clean up such a large number of infected people in the old city through some means is the Rice Gang.

It can also be seen from this point that it is obvious that the Rice Gang really has the home field advantage in the old city.

Bracken winked at Jed, so Jed nodded and came downstairs to the nearby apartment.

She looked up and observed for a while, then jumped up using the phone booth nearby, and then climbed to the top of the building with quick and dexterous movements along the outer wall of the apartment building.

Bracken and the others waited for a moment before Jed appeared at the edge of the roof again and gave them a few gestures.

Bracken understood: "There are people standing guard at the outpost over there. It's difficult for Jade to deal with her alone. I'll go help her."

Martin nodded: "I support you."

Bracken then climbed to the top of the building through the rope hung down by Jed.After a brief discussion with Jed, he decided to work together to deal with the three sentries on the roof.

After agreeing on the action plan, Bracken took out his weapons - a heavy modified wrench with a blade on the top and a small pistol, crouched and slowly approached the outpost.

Jed hid behind the chimney on the roof and drew his bow.

"Whoosh-!"

There was a soft sound, a sharp arrow flew out, and a soldier in the outpost fell down!
The other two sentries turned back, but suddenly there was a gunshot, and the sentry standing on the edge trembled, with blood splattering on his body.

The last sentry was attacked from behind by Bracken and hit the back of the head with a wrench. He went to see Les' brother on the spot.

Then, Amir took out a bunch of grenades and threw them into the skylight entrance from the roof to the house below.

And Jed jumped across the narrow gap between the two buildings, came to the sentry who was shot, kicked down, and completed the last hit.

With the sound of explosions coming from the house below, the outpost was cleared.

Bracken finally waved to the people below, so Racine next to Martin took out the radio and issued an order to all team leaders using the pre-arranged code words:
"Hey guys, cheer up. It's...rock time!"

Then Racine switched to another channel.

"Friends, it's time to get ready to perform!"

At the same moment, deep in the dark tunnel, a pair of eyes lit up.

……

When Bracken and Martin led everyone to attack the radio station, Li You was naturally not idle either.

Although until now, he had been sitting on the helicopter piloted by Amir, waiting at the other end of the tunnel.

Of course, he did not intend to let Bracken and the others attack the radio station alone. Although the members of the Light Guard have greatly improved their combat quality after this period of training, they are still at a disadvantage in terms of numbers and terrain.

So in addition to sending Yuzi to them to act together, Li You also planned to fly a few times in a helicopter over the old city to attract the attention of the Rice gang and create more opportunities for Bracken and Martin.

At the same time, he also wanted to find out the location of Rice.

After all, Li You never gave up the idea of ​​speedrunning.

After hearing the coded password coming from the radio communication, Li You patted Amir in the driver's seat. Amir understood and started the helicopter, flew over the hill where the tunnel was located, and entered the airspace of the old city. .

The buzzing sound of helicopter wings echoed endlessly. In the south of the old city, almost all the Rice Gang soldiers who were outdoors subconsciously raised their heads and looked at the sky.

This was what Li You wanted. He took out the loudspeaker he had prepared long ago, stood on the side of the helicopter, and shouted at the bottom:

"Les——! I'm here again! Do you miss me?"

"Last time I blasted a part of your area with a gun. Is it healed now? Do you want me to introduce you to a doctor?"

"If you want revenge, come out and see me!"

"Or are you going to run away with your tail between your legs like you did in the ghetto this time?"

Helicopters hovered over the old city again and again, and Li You's voice kept telling everyone about Rice's dark history that had been embellished.

……

Inside Rice's secret base.

Ever since Li You started broadcasting Rice's dark history, Rice himself had locked himself in the office and never came out, and no one else dared to disturb him.

A loyal little manager came in before and wanted to ask them what to do, but what he got in exchange was a bullet through the head!

“Get out of here, get out of here—!!”

Then no one dared to go near that door again.

Inside the base, the atmosphere became increasingly strange.

Because of this, no one noticed the call from the radio station that was covered up by Li You's loudspeaker.
