Both Li Yang and Chu Zhimiao knew what Pei Yijun intended to do, so they had been preparing ever since they started building this base.
"I will send the mutant to Jinxing City and release it there. That area has mountain ranges and is suitable for faking your death," Li Yang said.
"You can handle this matter."
After the brief discussion, Li Yang and Chu Zhimiao left the ward to carry out their tasks. As for Pei Yijun, he finished reading the reports, then closed his eyes to rest.
In the next ten days, all bases and survival camps that received the news about zombies moving under the snow sent their guards or ability-users to clear the snow and kill the zombies.
On the 26th day after the first snow, the Green Lake Base finally cleared the snow piling up in an area with a radius of 100 kilometers from the base wall.
From then on, several groups of guards were sent to clear the snow. At the same time, the E-rank mission of clearing snow and killing zombies underneath it was posted for an unlimited time and number of participants.
Every mercenary team that wanted to take this mission had to go with two guards so they would not be able to cheat or lie about the results.
The guards were responsible for recording the mission progress and reporting it to the mission hall. Their rewards depended on the area they cleaned and how many zombies they killed.
With the lower-rank teams working together with the guards, the roads were now accessible. Today, the Phantom Team and the Wen family were leaving the base to check the surrounding situation.
Unlike before, they decided to use military choppers instead. As the chopper flew out of the base, Qin Luzi checked his map and said, "Captain, the number of zombies buried under the snow is more than 2 million."
As soon as he said this, the Wen family members were shocked. They did not know how he knew about it, but the Phantom Team members were calm.
The estimation covered the total number of zombies in an area with an 80-kilometer radius. If they cleared them slowly, the number was actually low.
Compared to other places, they had been clearing zombies before the winter, so the number of zombies at this moment was not even half of the total when they first arrived.
"Old Zhang, find a place to land. Wind- and Fire-type members will be responsible for clearing the snow. The rest of the members will be responsible for killing the zombies," Jin Xuyan said.
"Understood," the members replied in unison.
Glancing at the Wen family members, Jin Xuyan added, "Uncle, Aunt, and Brother Wen can just follow the members. Stay close in case we meet high-level zombies. Your safety is the priority."
"Okay," they nodded.
The military chopper flew for a while before landing on top of a building. Due to the heavy snowfall and frosty wind, the rooftop was only 20 meters above the snow surface.
After the engine was turned off and the members came out of the chopper, Jiao Lizhi stored it in her Space. Standing on top of the rooftop, the members raised their hands.
The next moment, blue fireballs flew out of Shen Jinzhe’s and Li Qixuan’s palms. Following them, Qin Luzi and Gao Bohai created tornadoes that flew toward the fireballs at high speed.
BOOM! BOOM!
The moment the fireballs collided with the tornadoes, they merged and turned into massive fire tornadoes. At this moment, the ones controlling the fire tornadoes were Qin Luzi and Li Qixuan.
As the two of them poured their energy into controlling the fire tornadoes, Shen Jinzhe and Gao Bohai created a smaller fire tornado.
Seeing this, Wen Chang also created several fireballs and threw them toward the smaller fire tornado.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
As soon as the fireballs hit the fire tornado, they were absorbed, and the size of the fire tornado increased instantly.
While the Phantom Team members were used to this, the Wen family members were stunned. This was the first time they realized that skills could be merged to increase destructive power.
Ten minutes later, the snow and ice had melted, and the zombies hiding below were exposed. After being buried for almost a month under the snow and ice, the zombies were stiff and unable to move freely.
Taking advantage of this situation, the members quickly launched their attacks and killed them.
Seeing that the members were able to take care of this area, Jin Xuyan pulled his fiancée along and went to another area. With the two of them working together, their speed in clearing snow and zombies was not slower than the others.
While the Phantom Team and the Wen family worked tirelessly, a massive avalanche happened in the distant Land of Snow.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The thunderous sound of the avalanche echoed across the entire area as the ground shook and snow fell like a crushing wave.
The avalanche not only buried the mutant plants but also any mutant animals in the area, killing all living beings instantly.
Looking at the monitor, the Elders of the Dawn of Organization watched the footage showing the situation of the avalanche.
When the avalanche finally stopped, the Twelfth Elder broke the silence and asked, "First Elder, are you just standing on the side and letting those bugs do whatever they want?"
"Twelfth Elder, watch your words. They are the messengers of God. Whatever they did or do, it is all for the future of the human race," the Sixth Elder said.
"For our good? Didn’t you see how they destroy our planet? Today, they destroyed another mountain. If they continue like this, sooner or later, we will lose our home planet," the Twelfth Elder said angrily.
"Twelfth Elder, you are worrying too much. We received advanced technology from them one month ago. With this technology, we will be able to build a space station, and we might be able to find a planet better than Earth. By then, we can just live there," the Tenth Elder replied casually.
