Chapter 146: Stadium 1
Before the apocalypse, the WMB stadium was one of the largest in the country.
It had a roof area of eleven acres and a seating capacity of ninety thousand. Adding the surrounding parking lots, food stands, and other places, just the basic area was more or less twenty acres.
However, this was not the extent of the WMB community.
Including the stadium, the community had residential estates, a mall, a school, a hospital, and many businesses.
Fortunately, these structures were a little far from the stadium and were not included in the ongoing expansion plan.
"What did you find out?" Qin Wu asked, looking at several scouts.
"Boss Mo, Boss Qin, it’s bad." One of the scouts said and subconsciously swallowed.
"What’s going on?" Lin Rongrong asked in an eager voice.
"On the night of the apocalypse, Queen Jin was holding a concert in the stadium." The scout said, and several people gasped in horror.
Queen Jin was one of the most popular pre-apocalypse stars.
She was not only a musician but also a talented actress.
Because of this, she had a large following and her concerts were always sold out, regardless of venue.
This time, the concert was held on a weekday, in a large stadium, but it was still fully sold out.
"We are looking at a zombie population of more than one hundred thousand." Another scout said.
"What’s their condition? Are they frozen?" Qin Wu asked, but one of the scouts shook his head.
"The stadium roof was closed for the concert. As a result, most of the zombies are still active and moving around."
Hearing this, Qin Wu frowned and glanced at Mo Chenxuan.
Their group numbered five thousand strong.
Under normal circumstances, five thousand could deal with one hundred thousand zombies.
However, this was on the basis that the zombies were not packed in one place.
"I have just checked, and the situation does not look good." A scout said and began explaining.
"Some zombies have strayed to the field, but most are still trapped in the stands."
"What level of zombies are we talking about?" Lu Hao asked, but a scout shook his head.
"We have confirmed at least nine level three. It’s difficult to count the others."
"We can’t let those zombies leave the stadium." Xu Fei said with a thoughtful expression.
"We need a blueprint or map of the stadium." Mo Chenxuan suddenly said.
Hearing this, everyone turned to look at the man.
"What are you thinking?" Qin Wu asked.
"Open the roof and then use drones to deliver explosives to the stadium." He started, and Qin Wu nodded before speaking.
"It’s a good idea, but there are risks." She said.
"Mmh." Mo Chenxuan agreed and continued speaking.
"One, opening the roof will free flying-type zombies and other powerful zombies. Two, if we are not careful when bombing the place, we may destroy the stadium, releasing an avalanche of zombies. It’s why we need a map or blueprint before we bomb the place." He said.
"Stadiums usually have maps at the entrance." Someone suggested.
"The stadium’s management company is here." Another said, pointing at a map.
"The blueprints should be there."
"What about drones and explosives?" Xiao Junxie asked, looking at Mo Chenxuan and Qin Wu.
"We have enough of those." Qin Wu said.
They got explosives when they collected the arms dealer’s bunker.
As for drones, they not only found some at the bunker but had also collected more from T-Shop’s fulfilment and sortation centres, among other places.
"Wu’er and I will get the blueprints." Mo Chenxuan started with a solemn expression.
"While we are away, Xiao Junxie and Lu Hao will lead a team to configure the drones and explosives."
"Got it." Xiao Junxie and Lu Hao nodded.
"Xu Fei, you will be in charge of everyone else. Form teams to clean the surroundings and map the exterior of the stadium."
"Got it, boss." Xu Fei agreed.
During the night, while most everyone was asleep, Mo Chenxuan and Qin Wu said hello to Xu Fei and quietly slipped out of the camp.
After leaving the camp, the two walked one hundred metres and saw a road.
Before the apocalypse, the road was a busy highway that was often packed with traffic.
This traffic would loosen after midnight and before dawn.
However, probably because of the concert, many cars were on the road when the apocalypse began.
At this time, Mo Chenxuan and Qin Wu saw hundreds of zombies still trapped in their cars, along with a few powerful ones roaming between the vehicles.
"Let’s avoid them." Qin Wu suggested, and Mo Chenxuan agreed.
On one hand, they were in a hurry to get the blueprints and didn’t have time to fight scattered zombies. On the other hand, the road was close to the camp, and fighting would attract more zombies.
Considering that, the two felt it was best to avoid the zombies for the time being. After all, the zombies would eventually be cleaned up when the team began working.
Using Mo Chenxuan’s spiritual ability barrier, the two successfully avoided the zombies, crossed the highway, and arrived on the other side of the road.
The other side was filled with commercial buildings and some scattered residential areas.
As a result, the two didn’t encounter many zombies and quickly arrived at the management building.
The building was twenty storeys tall.
Fortunately, the apocalypse began during the night, so the building was empty, except for a few security guards.
When Mo Chenxuan and Qin Wu arrived, the building was pristine, and two zombie guards were frozen near the entrance.
After killing the zombies and collecting their crystal cores, the two entered the building.
"Start searching from the top?" Qin Wu asked, and Mo Chenxuan nodded.
"The blueprints should be in a safe. We have to be careful not to miss them." He said.
Since the power was down, the lift could not be used, so the two headed to the emergency stairs and began climbing.
Twenty storeys was a strenuous climb for ordinary people.
However, for superpowers, it was a walk in the park, and the two soon reached the twentieth floor.
