n“Since Lickers have high agility, it’s not easy to hit them. So, wait until all of you enter the inner part of the sentry towers.”
nFang Heng continued to explain the battle plan to Chen Yu and his team.
n“By relying on the advantage of the sentry towers being high in the air, coupled with the additional long-range attack range and the drop rate of hits from the sentry towers, we should be able to deal with the Lickers trapped in the maze.”
n“Any other questions?”
nA federation soldier raised his hand and asked, “Mr Fang Heng! I have a question!”
n“Please speak.”
n“We don’t have enough guns and ammunition. We can’t guarantee our output.”
n“The prison will provide you with a portion of pistols and ammunition.”
nAs Fang Heng spoke, he gave Liao Bufan a look.
nLiao Bufan was already prepared. He ran to the side and pushed the wooden box in the corner over.
nOpening the wooden box, there were more than ten pistols and a box full of pistol bullets.
nThese guns and bullets were all collected from Prison No. 2 and Prison No. 3.
n“So many bullets?”
nThe members of the federal team were dazzled by this box of bullets.
nThey had once again witnessed the abundance of the prison.
nThe elite team of the federation had a 60% pistol equipped rate, but each of them only had 15 bullets.
nBefore coming here, they had thought that such equipment could be considered top-notch in the game.
nAfter arriving at the prison, they realized that the bullets here could be used at will…
nChen Yu came back to his senses.
nHe looked at the sentry towers, then at the maze which he built yesterday, and finally at the bullets all over the ground.
nWas this plan feasible?
nDid he want to use the maze to trap the Lickers for a while longer?
nThen, he could use the advantage of the sentry tower’s high position to shoot from above?
nIn theory, it seemed feasible.
nBut…
nChen Yu had never seen anyone play in such a way in the apocalypse game.
n“Chen Yu, what do you think of the plan?”
n“It’s… It’s okay…”
nChen Yu was a little confused by Fang Heng’s wild thinking.
n“But, Fang Heng, this maze might be useful for ordinary zombies, but Lickers are good at climbing. If they encounter such terrain, they should be able to climb over it directly, right?”
nFang Heng nodded.
n“That’s right. So, I made some special arrangements. You’ll find out later.”
n“Alright.”
nChen Yu thought for a moment. If Fang Heng had already considered this…
nTheoretically speaking, there shouldn’t be any loopholes in this plan.
nHowever, it was still weird.
n“How about… We give it a try first?”
n“Alright, let’s give it a try first.”
nFang Heng was very confident in his plan, but Chen Yu was right.
nThis was the first time they were using this tactic, so they had to give it a try for safety reasons.
nThey had to try to lure a few Lickers out first, so that even if something unexpected happened to their plan, they would be able to remedy it in time.
nAccording to the plan, Chen Yu and the federal team members were divided into five groups and they each climbed up the sentry tower.
nThey took out their pistols and aimed at the exit of Prison No. 1.
nA member of the federal team noticed something and pointed at the top of the ‘maze’.
n“Captain, look up.”
n“Hiss…”
nChen Yu sucked in a breath of cold air.
nWhat the heck!
nOn the top of the log pile, there was a layer of wood and a layer of spike trap was added to the wood.
nIt was obvious that this was Fang Heng’s doing!
nChen Yu secretly nodded in his heart.
nA layer of wooden spike trap could indeed prevent the Licker from directly jumping over the obstacles from above.
nHowever, it was not certain how effective it would be.
nAfter all, that was a Licker!
nFang Heng and Liao Bufan walked to the iron gate of Prison No. 1 together, and he gestured to Chen Yu who was high up.
nChen Yu also gestured with his hand.
n“Raise your spirits and get ready for battle.”
n“Yes! Leader!”
nFang Heng put down his hand and pushed open the iron gate.
nThe next task was to lure the enemies.
nThis task was a little difficult.
nFang Heng thought about it for a long time. He realized that the task of luring the Lickers could only be done by him.
nAmong all the players, he was the one with the highest agility!
nIn addition to his 15 points of perceptive ability and danger warning ability, he could buy as much time as possible to escape in advance.
nIf it were anyone else who went to lure the Licker, they would probably die on the way before they could even lure it out.
nOpening the door of the passage, Liao Bufan quickly dodged to the side.
nFang Heng stood where he was. He glanced at the inner part of the prison and took out a bottle of drink from his pocket.
nItem: Gatorade 2021 commemorative edition.
nDescription: After drinking it, you can increase your maximum movement speed by 20% and your vitality recovery speed by 20% within 20 minutes (you can only use it once within 48 hours).
nFang Heng gulped down the drink.
nHe had tested it when he met the Licker yesterday. He ran at full speed but was slightly slower than the Licker.
nNow with this 20% increase in speed, the Licker should not be able to catch up with him.
nFang Heng held the shotgun in his hand and slowly moved forward.
nHe walked along the passage that he had previously walked through until he reached the entrance to the second floor.
nFang Heng was not in a hurry to go upstairs. Instead, he took out a yellow rubber duckling toy from his backpack.
nHe reached out and grabbed the rubber duckling’s stomach.
nHe squeezed it lightly.
n“Squeak!”
nThe toy duckling let out an ear-piercing screech.
n“Squeak! Squeak squeak squeak!!”
nAfter pressing it several times, Fang Heng kept the duckling.
nLickers relied on sound to track their targets. At close range, they could even hear the heartbeat of their prey.
nTherefore, if they directly used the sound source to attract the Lickers, they would be seen through very quickly.
nThey had taken the bait!
nA moment later, Fang Heng heard the faint sound of friction coming from upstairs. At the same time, a sense of danger arose in his heart.
nHe turned around and ran!
nFang Heng ran forward with all his might.
nHis vitality points began to drop rapidly.
nFang Heng was very sure that the Lickers that were behind him were still chasing him.
nThe sense of danger behind him did not disappear. Instead, it became more and more intense!
n“Chi Chi Chi!!”
nThe sound of the Lickers crawling against the wall behind him became more and more frequent!
nListening to the sounds, the number of Lickers chasing him this time was even more than the last time.
n“This is troublesome.”
nThe rubber ducking’s cry was not controlled well.
nIt attracted too many Lickers at once!
nFang Heng had no choice. He didn’t even turn his head and continued to run forward with all his might.
nHe finally reached the exit!
nFang Heng leapt out of the prison gate and immediately hid in the reserved maze gap on the right.
nLiao Bufan quickly blocked the gap on the side, and the two continued to run into the distance.
nAfter running for a few seconds, the first Licker came out of the prison building.
nThe Licker could pinpoint its location using sound and senses.
nIt moved extremely fast and immediately climbed up the wall made of logs after breaking out of the building.
nChen Yu followed Fang Heng’s instructions and did not give the order to shoot before receiving his hand signal.
nHe was unusually nervous, and his finger pressed on the trigger of the pistol while staring intensely at the Licker.
nNow it was time to find out if the maze worked!
