"Zombies?" many people chewed on the new term.

"A zombie is an infected entity, a creature of the same undead race. Bai Xiaowen said, "This infected person is very sensitive to the targets of all activities, including sound. In addition, their teeth and claws also carry the virus of the 'Ultimate Plague Buster', and those who are scratched or bitten by them will turn into zombies after a certain period of time. ”

As if to confirm Bai Xiaowen's explanation, the first batch of plague undead who had just been pounced on by the zombies didn't take long to stand up crookedly, let out a meaningless roar from their mouths, and joined the ranks of counterattacks.

"So, these zombies...... Is it under your control?" Lord Julien looked at Bai Xiaowen with strange eyes and asked carefully.

"Unfortunately, they only follow their instincts. Bai Xiaowen sighed, if he can control the zombies, do he still need to be so restrained, directly pull up an army of zombies, and push the two camps in the north There is no problem, and the treasure chest is definitely soft.

"In this case, the plague lord who is hiding behind the scenes will not be able to control these zombies?" Lord Julien suddenly laughed, "This is not bad, let the zombies kill the plague undead and the remnant beasts, we have the protection of the city wall, it will be safe." ”

Archbishop Arlo suddenly spoke: "However, what about the other humans in the northern frontier, especially those who live in villages and have no city walls? I remember that in Baron Dior's plan, it was also mentioned that the 'Ultimate Plague Buster' you developed is highly contagious and can spread with the flow of air, and it won't be long before those humans in the northern Xinjiang who have not been bitten by zombies will also become zombies!"

The venue was silent for a while.

Bai Xiaowen said calmly: "Archbishop Arlo, I repeat, only humans infected with the necromantic plague virus will be affected by the ultimate plague buster. If you are not infected with the virus, you will not be converted. ”

"That doesn't mean anything. Aren't those who are infected God's people, and they have a chance to be healed!"

"Cure, how to cure?" Bai Xiaowen shook his head, "Does the archbishop think that we have enough time and manpower to administer medicine to the infected people in the entire northern Xinjiang?

Archbishop Arlo was speechless, and could only watch as the soldiers of the White Rock Army busily poured the "Ultimate Plague Buster" - which was actually the solution of the zombie virus - to the army of plague undead below.

The front began to push back.

While the plague undead army has a numerical advantage, the zombies are constantly able to transform enemies into their own kind. Moreover, zombies are monsters, unless they attack the head, even if they empty their health, they will stay at 1 point, temporarily lose their mobility, and after a few minutes, their health will automatically recover and they will be a good man.

The large wooden barrel solution shot out by the stone thrower bloomed in the rear position of the plague undead army, and the zombie virus spread rapidly.

Either way, the pressure on the walls was much less.

Bai Xiaowen walked down the city, and everywhere he went, people got out of the way, and their eyes were a little strange when they looked at him.

At the same time, Bai Xiaowen received a reminder that his prestige in the human camp had declined, and he had not yet fallen below the reverence level, but as the umbrella project progressed, his prestige continued to decline, and it would not be long before he would fall below reverence.

This is still a case of letting the prince take the blame, if Bai Xiaowen acts rashly by himself, his reputation will definitely be an avalanche, and in the end, he may not have any credit at all.

Li Shuyi also received a hint of the decline in prestige, and said with some concern: "What should we do now? Let's go buy the return props now, if we fall below the reverence, we can't buy them." ”

The [Return to the City Scroll] at the Quartermaster of Black Rock Fortress requires Reverence and Prestige to purchase.

"Don't worry, these temporary losses of prestige are just floating clouds," Bai Xiaowen said calmly, "I've been preparing for so long, and I've spent so much effort to promote the umbrella plan, but I'm not just satisfied by completing an S-level main quest." ”

Back at the residence, Bai Xiaowen took out another communication rune stone that he had specially asked Prince Nicholas.

The communication rune stone left to him by Prince Nicholas before was placed by him in the red leaf collar.

These two runes are communicated with the help of the magic network of the Kane plane world, as for the size of the communication distance, it is related to the grade of the communication rune stones, these two runes can support the communication from Black Rock City to Red Leaf City, which is relatively high-end.

It's a pity that the communication rune stone can't be taken out of the Kane Plane World, and even if it is taken out, it can't work without the support of the magic network of the Kane Plane World.

After being infused with spiritual power, the communication rune stone shone brightly.

It didn't take long for a figure to appear in the illusory light, with a big head, a small body, and goldfish eyes, which was none other than Dr. Zombie.

"Hey, boss! Let me guess what you're looking for me...... Hmm, a paid holiday?"

“...... After this ticket, I will give you a long vacation," Bai Xiaowen said lightly, "Now cheer me up...... How's your preparation?"

"Under my diligent supervision, the production of the factory is very smooth. Moreover, according to the arrangement of the BOSS, in the twenty-one territories in northern Xinjiang, they have all been arranged...... As long as you give one order, within 48 hours, the whole northern Xinjiang will be 'boom'! You know, BOSS! Hahahaha!"

"Is Cecilia here?" Bai Xiaowen asked.

Next to Dr. Zombie, Cecilia's figure appears.

"Dio, those mildly infected people in my territory have all been recruited to Red Leaf City, and after taking the plague buster medicine you studied, the symptoms of the necromantic plague have been significantly alleviated," Cecilia said with a somewhat tired expression, "It is expected that in another five or six days, they will all recover." How's it going over there?"

Dr. Zombie was a little upset: "Hi Hi Ma'am, Plague Busters is my invention patent. ”

"Very good, you don't have to worry," Bai Xiaowen ignored Dr. Zombie's protest and nodded to Cecilia, "Cecilia, after a while, the humans in the entire northern frontier, except for Black Rock City and Red Leaf City, will become brainless zombies, which is quite dangerous." However, Momiji Castle also has high walls, so don't worry too much. You have to maintain the stability of Red Leaf City, and once you find that someone is zombied, you will immediately isolate and clear it. ”

Although it is said that Bai Xiaowen had already cleaned Red Leaf City before leaving, and the people of the territory brought by Cecilia had also taken the healing medicine, it could not be ruled out that the infected people with the necromantic plague would become fish that slipped through the net.

The characteristics of the ultimate plague buster (zombie virus) are that it will not affect healthy people, but will only forcibly transform the plague undead and the plague infected.

At the beginning, after Dr. Zombie accidentally stumbled into substance D-01 through his zombie body, causing a group of plague infected people to become zombies, Bai Xiaowen realized that this might be a shortcut to complete the S-class hero mission: fighting the plague.

After the antidote was researched, Bai Xiaowen advanced the number of orders for the next month, so that Dr. Zombie could continue his research on the basis of the zombie substance. This mad scientist does have an extraordinary talent in the field of research to destroy mankind, and soon his technology is upgraded to achieve new results.

The first technology upgrade was obtained, and the substance D-02 was obtained, which can be used to zombieize the plague undead and its infected people through diet and injection.

However, Bai Xiaowen was not satisfied with this, and then there was a second technological upgrade, and the newly obtained D-03 substance, which is the "Ultimate Plague Buster", can be transmitted through the air!

At this point, the "umbrella plan" has a technical basis for its realization.

"Don't worry, I will recruit people, train them in archery, and build Red Leaf City into a fortified city and an important stronghold for humans in Northern Xinjiang. Cecilia said.

Bai Xiaowen snorted: "Job, Ferdinand, those black-edged knights, are they still cooperative?" Bai Xiaowen asked.

Speaking of this, Dr. Zombie said with a bitter face: "BOSS, those five Black Blade Knights are very fierce, they will kill me as soon as they meet, and after listening to my request, they almost didn't kill me......!"

The seven Black Blade Knights who were originally scattered to the Northern Frontier, Ian and Jericho were all wiped out by Bai Xiaowen, and there were still five left.

These five people, except for Job and Ferdinand, who may be a little better, the other three who have not met Bai Xiaowen are probably not expected to have any good feelings for Bai Xiaowen, not to mention that Dr. Zombie is still an undead creature......

Moreover, Bai Xiaowen's request brought by Dr. Zombie is to let these Black Blade Knights fully cooperate with the umbrella plan and turn the plague infected people in Northern Xinjiang into zombies. These knights didn't cut Dr. Zombie on the spot, it was definitely the effect of the prince's warrant.

Bai Xiaowen is not worried about the obedience of these knights, they are not innocent little girls like Bernita who are not deeply involved in the world, and they understand that where the light shines, there must be shadows.

If you don't turn the plague infected into zombies, after a while, they will become plague undead, driven by the Lord of the Plague, to join the plague army besieging Black Rock City.

In this case, it is better to turn them into zombies in advance, and the zombies act by instinct, at least they will not be controlled by the Lord of the Plague.

As for the incurable, the production of ordinary plague busters made from the materials recently collected by Momiji City can only cure some of the mildly infected people in Cecilia's territory.

"Dr. Zombie, in addition to supervising production, do you have any other research results during this time?" Bai Xiaowen asked, "Can the possibility of manipulating zombies be realized?"

Dr. Zombie shrunk his neck: "...... Boss, let me remind you that the number of orders you've given me this month has been seriously exceeded......"

"Is that gone?" Bai Xiaowen touched his chin, "Your paid vacation...... I'm going to reconsider. ”

"BOSS, you're violating labor laws!" said Dr. Zombie.

"Is there a labor law that stipulates that you can only do three things a month?" Bai Xiaowen choked on Dr. Zombie and said with a cold face, "That's it, next month's vacation will be canceled......"

"Stop, wait a minute!" Dr. Zombie waved his hand repeatedly, "Although I can't manipulate zombies, I do have a new idea and made something new during this time of overseer...... BOSS: You might like it. I've given it to Kitts to take with him on the way back, along with a manual......"

"Ok, well done. "Bai Xiaowen didn't expect Dr. Zombie to be quite good.

"However, after all, it is a relatively hasty work, and there may be a little flaw, so don't mind, BOSS. ”

"I don't mind, if something goes wrong, you can go find Driffa yourself and get the whip. ”

Ignoring Dr. Zombie's bitter gourd face, Bai Xiaowen finally said: "The umbrella plan is officially launched." Within 48 hours, the Ultimate Plague Buster will cover the entire Northern Frontier!"

Considering the strong contagiousness of the ultimate plague buster's airborne transmission, as long as the source of infection is set up in the main villages and towns in the northern Xinjiang territory, it will not take long to complete what Bai Xiaowen said, covering the northern Xinjiang.

Back on the city wall, the battle situation has gradually turned around on the battlefield outside. At least, under the city walls, there is no longer the existence of the plague undead.

Batches of plague undead pounced, and the zombies met them.

On the contact front, the plague undead were transformed into new zombies, and then turned around and attacked other plague undead.

Moreover, the health of the zombie is empty, as long as the head is still there, it will not really die, it will only fall to the ground, wait for the health to return to full, and will regain its mobility again.

The zombie's weakness is in the head, and the controller of the plague undead will definitely be able to detect it. It's just that the controller can't control the plague undead army to concentrate on attacking the zombies' heads, and this kind of long-range refined command is beyond their capabilities.

Therefore, it seems that the number of zombies is very small, but the front line is slowly moving towards the other side.

What's more, there are also trebuchets on the city walls, constantly throwing large wooden barrels loaded with the ultimate plague buster. This kind of cannonball, which is much more effective than stone shells, will turn a group of plague undead zombies wherever they fall.

Among the remnant tribes, there are some remnants, like Khalhan, who have undergone undead transformation, and there is also a necromantic plague virus in their bodies. These remnants who have undergone the transformation of the undead will also be zombieized after coming into contact with the ultimate plague buster! The elite individuals among them are much stronger than ordinary humans in combat after being zombied, and they can be regarded as the prototype of Kane's version of lickers or tyrants......

Flutter la la......

In the chaos, a group of bats swept past the crowd of zombies and turned into a human form and landed, it was Kitts. His movement caught the attention of several zombies, but before they could turn around and pounce, Kitts turned into a bat again and flew up the walls.

"Dark creatures?" Archbishop Arlo's eyes widened.

Bai Xiaowen hurriedly stopped him: "This is a knight under my command. "He's really afraid that Arlo will smash down with a holy light and destroy Kitz.
