C48 Fighting the Beast Tide
Zhou Heng still had a deep impression of Meng Deyao.
When he was young, Meng Deyao treated him like his own son. He would always think of him when he had something delicious to eat or something fun to play with.
Because Meng Deyao had no children, he had almost recognized Zhou Heng as his godson.
However, after Meng Deyao was transferred elsewhere, they rarely saw each other.
On the other hand, Zhou Guoqiang often contacted Meng Deyao and even secretly drank with him on video calls.
Zhou Heng understood Zhou Guoqiang's feelings.
Seeing his good friend in such a state, Zhou Guoqiang naturally wanted to save him.
However, in this world, no one could protect themselves.
If not for Zhou Heng, Zhou Guoqiang and Fann Qinghua would not have survived until now.
Furthermore, Zhou Guoqiang was definitely not willing to let Zhou Heng take the risk.
However, how could Zhou Heng bear to watch his father suffer in sorrow?
He knew very well how close his father and Meng Deyao were.
"Dad, don't worry. Uncle Meng is a good person. God will bless him. I'm also considering to move the shelter somewhere else. Now, Ashveil is even more dangerous than before."
"Maybe we can still find out more about Uncle Meng on the way."
"Child, don't take this risk. You have to understand that you are my mother and I."
Zhou Guoqiang said tearfully as he tightly held Zhou Heng's hand.
"I know. Let's go eat something first, then we can make a plan."
Zhou Heng said as he helped him up.
Zhou Guoqiang wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes, took a deep breath, adjusted his mood, and followed Zhou Heng out of the door.
After they finished eating, Zhou Heng turned on his phone to check out the poster of the photo.
The person on the internet was called LifeforPeople. From the other content that he posted, he could tell that he was also a soldier.
Zhou Heng privately messaged the person, hoping to confirm his location, but the person did not reply in time.
Then, Zhou Heng checked the surveillance system as usual and confirmed that everything around the shelter was safe.
Suddenly, the ground started shaking violently, even more intense than when he was near the crater.
The ground shook so violently that his ears were ringing.
The entire shelter was shaking.
An ominous premonition flashed in Zhou Heng's mind. He quickly checked the image sent back by the UAV.
When he saw the image, he cursed.
"They're too stupid! Why didn't they throw themselves down?"
It turned out that after the soldiers near the crater looked around, they wandered around for a long time.
Perhaps it was because they did not sense the existence of danger, so they set up a fire near the crater to cook.
At this time, they could still eat hot food. It could be seen that the living conditions of these soldiers were quite good.
However, what happened next made Zhou Heng extremely furious.
After eating and drinking to his heart's content, a soldier kicked the bonfire away. One of the burning logs fell into the crater.
Perhaps it was because of his curiosity, but when the soldier saw that the logs did not have any reaction after falling into the crater, he took out another grenade.
After indicating to his companions, he threw the grenade into the crater.
The grenade exploded, and the flickering flames in the crater were like a match that had been lit.
However, right after that, flames shot out from the crater and almost caught the UAV.
The intense heat distorted their vision, and the soldiers instantly turned into steam.
The two armored vehicles parked at the edge of the crater also turned into a pile of scrap metal.
The flames were shot out quickly, but they also disappeared quickly. However, after they disappeared, the crater once again let out a chaotic roar that made one's scalp tingle.
After nearly a minute, strange creatures crawled out of the crater one after another.
Some of them looked like dinosaurs, while others looked like lizards.
These monsters roared and rushed in all directions. They would bite and swallow any living creature that they saw.
Therefore, a living person was forcibly torn into two halves.
This scene played out everywhere.
"Damn it!"
Zhou Heng angrily punched the control panel.
These monsters were much stronger than the underground beasts he had killed before.
Even the strange birds that once dominated the sky were nothing in front of the "giant bat".
He tried to control the humanoid Combat UAV to kill the "giant bat".
However, the bullets did not even inflict any damage on the bat.
Only the missiles could cause effective damage.
However, facing the countless giant bats, even if all four of the Combat UAVs were deployed, it would still be difficult to threaten it.
Not only that, they might even be destroyed by the "giant bat".
Therefore, he quickly sent a message to Fann Yanglin, asking him to gather all the members of the Heaven Exploding Gang and find a place to hide.
"Beast tide detected. Host, please prepare for defense."
The system's voice sounded.
Zhou Heng immediately asked it to analyze the fortitude of the shelter and see if it could withstand the attack of the beast tide.
"After a comprehensive simulation test, the defense of the shelter is weak and cannot withstand the attack of the beast tide."
"I suggest that the host level up the shelter. The level 7 shelter can unlock the energy barrier function."
"How many survival points do I need to level up to 7?"
Current level of the shelter: 6
Area: 3,000 square meters!
Buildings: Research Base!
Basic facilities level: 4
Defensive facilities level: 4
Required upgrade: 1,000 survival points
Zhou Heng realized in despair that he only had around 700 survival points.
He started to regret spending so much money.
"Before the shelter is discovered, I should kill the monsters to obtain more survival points."
"System, can the humanoid Combat UAV's attack power be increased?"
"One hundred survival points are needed to upgrade the individual combat function."
Zhou Heng gritted his teeth as he listened.
However, in order to obtain more survival points, he had no choice but to upgrade all four humanoid Combat UAVs.
However, the effect was indeed not bad. One price for one service.
The four UAVs were equipped with laser beams, and their damage increased exponentially.
When the four UAVs rose into the sky and faced the beast tide, a large number of gigantic bats wriggled and attacked them.
"I'll let you guys have a taste of the laser beams!"
Zhou Heng gritted his jaws and said.
Under his command, the four UAVs lined up in a row and released lasers at the same time.
The few gigantic bats at the front opened their bloody mouths and tried to bite the UAVs.
They were hit in the head by the lasers.
In an instant, a large hole was pierced through their heads.
