Chapter 959: Chapter 226: In That Soaring Transport Plane Lies Our Respect
Liu Tao softly murmured "ordinary citizens," then suddenly looked up at Lin Fan, as if realizing the meaning of those words.
Lin Fan knew that the resistance fighters wouldn’t go to the shelter. Their goals were clear, and they knew what they were doing. If they were looking for a safe life, given their level of armament, they could certainly find a secure place.
"How many of you are in the resistance?" Lin Fan wanted to fully arm the resistance fighters; facing zombies with just flesh and bone was just too risky.
Liu Tao replied, "We originally had 325 people; a few just sacrificed themselves, so now there should be 320 left."
Huo Fen on the side said, "You’re not thinking of having all of us wear war armor, are you?"
Lin Fan said, "Yes, I want all of you to wear war armor. With war armor, you can ignore the threat of ordinary zombies. Also, do you have any Awakeners in your team, other than Zhou Xiao and Tutu?"
Zhou Xiao was a disguised Awakener. Such Awakeners are actually useful in the early stages, perfect for lone wolves, but with the emergence of evolutionary zombies later on.
Disguised Awakeners aren’t invincible.
Tyrants and some other zombies can sense killing intent.
Some higher-stage zombies can even tear open your disguise, seeing you clearly. There’s nowhere to hide in front of them, which is inherently linked to their stage of ability.
"Awakeners?" Liu Tao didn’t know that those with abilities were called Awakeners. He hadn’t read the Zombie Album yet and was a novice in the apocalypse.
Huo Fen took out the Zombie Album and flipped to the page, handing it to Liu Tao, "This page has an introduction to Awakeners. Take this booklet, and after reading it, you’ll understand the situation of the current apocalypse."
Liu Tao took the booklet skeptically. As he read, he realized that it was not ordinary at all; the content was truly astonishing.
"Lin Fan, I know who among our resistance is an Awakener. Besides Zhou Xiao, there’s someone named Ma Ming. His strength is infinite; he can lift a car with one hand. According to the records in the booklet, he is a strength Awakener," Huo Fen said.
Liu Tao immediately recalled who it was, indeed as Huo Fen described, that kid’s strength was crazy strong.
Lin Fan didn’t expect that in a resistance force of over 300, there were only two Awakeners. In the early stages, this kind of probability was high, but at present, it was a bit low.
But it doesn’t matter.
These things are not important now.
"Wait for me and don’t leave Qingshui Town; I will help you improve your overall strength," Lin Fan said softly.
He didn’t want this group of resistance fighters to die in vain.
The number of zombies was just too many.
Their numbers were just too few.
Every death would mean one less hopeful survivor for the future.
Though the Sunshine Shelter at Huang City was safe, outside was still very dire. He was willing to unconditionally help this group of idealistic survivors.
When people have no sense of reverence, they’ll dare to do anything.
Zombies have no sense of reverence.
And some living survivors are the same; they dare to do things they never could before, even to the point of taking it for granted, thinking it’s just a trivial matter.
"We will," Huo Fen said.
Lin Fan leaped out and vanished from their sight.
Liu Tao raised his head, looking at the disappearing figure, lost in thought for a long time, as if he were completely dumbfounded.
The way he left was truly breathtaking.
Huo Fen patted Liu Tao’s shoulder and sighed, "See? Our world can be saved. Back then, I thought about how far we could go with just our group, and how many zombies we could kill. Would we be completely wiped out by zombies in the end?"
"But now, I find things aren’t as bad as we thought."
"His appearance injected immense motivation into the depths of my heart."
As he spoke, Huo Fen couldn’t help but smile.
It wasn’t as heavy as before.
Liu Tao looked at Huo Fen, slowly exhaling, showing his agreement with what Huo Fen said.
It’s like a backbone appearing among the surviving humans—no matter what happens, that one person is always there.
...
Sunshine Shelter at Huang City.
Not a frequent meeting.
Lin Fan informed everyone present about the resistance’s situation. Upon learning about the resistance, they expressed deep admiration for their actions; this wasn’t something ordinary people could do.
Idealism, willpower, courage.
All indispensable.
Professor Xia said, "Over three hundred sets of war armor, it’s not a small number, but it’s a lot of work. But as long as it can help them, even if we have to work through the night with full force, we must make these war armors."
The role of war armor is significant.
Especially the second-generation war armor, which has been greatly enhanced in all aspects.
The buffering capability of the first-generation war armor is good, but compared to the second generation, there’s a considerable gap.
Captain Lei said, "I’ll organize the manpower to help produce them. Even if we work day and night, we must make them."
The Sunshine Shelter doesn’t lack technical personnel here.
Moreover, there are many soldiers, with strong execution capabilities, who can quickly adjust their state and throw themselves into work.
Lin Fan said, "Thank you for your hard work. They’ve been fighting zombies outside all along; with just flesh and blood, it’s very dangerous. If protected by war armor, their chances of survival will increase significantly."
Captain Lei said, "What’s hard work? They’re fighting with their lives, compared to them, what we do is nothing."
