Consumables

It could only be said that the S City base was worthy of being a large base. Among the three boxes of firearms, in addition to the usual firearms, there was actually an anti-material sniper rifle!

M82, fully named Barrett M82, could be described as an extremely powerful weapon. The gun body was 147 centimeters long, almost taller than the girl.

Ping Chengcheng excitedly hugged the M82 in her arms, stroking it over and over again.

Shen Mengyuan scoffed: “This was specially selected for you by Captain Wang.”

She shook her head as she looked at the girl’s excited appearance. This gun weighed a full 14 kilograms, and the girl looked like she had thin arms and legs, and it seemed difficult for her to even pick it up.

However, after the girl fondled it a few times, she easily hung it on her back.

Huh?

Shen Mengyuan was slightly surprised, but didn’t think much about it. Maybe she was just a little stronger. 14 kilograms wasn’t too heavy, but not light either. If she fired a shot, she estimated that the recoil would make the girl cry.

She had already imagined the girl crying. Shen Mengyuan evilly hooked the corners of her mouth.

“Remember to come to training this afternoon. This time is mainly to test your abilities. There won’t be much of this kind of training in the future.”

After Shen Mengyuan left, the girl approached Song Ning.

“Sister, do you want this gun?” Although she really wanted this gun, but, a little loli using a Barrett, and looking very relaxed when shooting, it would be too easy to arouse suspicion.

Ping Chengcheng had to reluctantly give it up.

Song Ning also knew this, so she took the Barrett.

“If I encounter a situation that I can’t handle, then I’ll give this gun to you,” she said, and rubbed the girl’s head.

“Hehe~” Ping Chengcheng rubbed Song Ning’s palm.

The afternoon training time arrived quickly. The four came to the training ground, Wang Ji and Shen Mengyuan had been waiting for a long time.

“Come on, you go first, Cheng meimei.”

“I heard your marksmanship is very accurate.”

Wang Ji smiled gently and pointed to a target 200 meters away. To his surprise, the anti-material sniper rifle was on Song Ning’s back, not held by the girl.

However, he didn’t say anything, after all, this girl looked like it would be difficult to control this gun.

The girl was still holding the sniper rifle she had scavenged from the Public Security Bureau.

Shen Mengyao raised her chin slightly, she wanted to see if this girl was really worthy of her name.

Ping Chengcheng stood on the spot, raised the sniper rifle in a standard posture, and instantly entered the state, the whole person had a cold temperament, as if being cut if approached.

Shen Mengyuan’s eyes narrowed. This guy, could she really have some skills?

“Bang!” The gunshot resounded through the training ground.

The target 200 meters away was instantly pierced, and the interval from the girl aiming to firing was less than a second!

This… seemed a bit outrageous.

Wang Ji’s heart was fiery, he had really found a treasure. Although the distance of 200 meters was not far, it could even be said to be close, but, she only aimed for less than a second!

“The target 500 meters away! Cheng meimei, you really exceeded my expectations.” Wang Ji squinted his eyes, unable to suppress the corners of his mouth.

Continuing the previous action, she again very quickly pierced the bullseye 500 meters away!

Wang Ji put down the binoculars in his hand, his mouth wide open: “Wow, Cheng meimei… you, awesome!”

Was this still human!?

Shen Mengyuan felt itchy in her heart when she saw Wang Ji’s exaggerated actions. Was it really that outrageous? Hit again? She only aimed for such a short time, was it too exaggerated!

It should be known that such a level was not unattainable, but… it was almost at the level of a world champion!

Shen Mengyuan snatched the binoculars from Wang Ji and looked at the target 500 meters away.

Right in the center, a big black hole!

What the heck?!

Was this girl human?

No… she was just a little better at marksmanship… nothing…

Crap, this was more than just a little better!

She took a deep breath, okay, she admitted that she had underestimated Ping Chengcheng.

Since she had such abilities, then she did meet the requirements of the Emergency Strike Team, even if her skills were trash, even… even if she was a fool, as long as she could understand and obey orders, then she was also a treasure!

Imagine, if an extremely strong special infected appeared on the periphery of the base and needed to be shot from a long distance, then the girl’s role would be highlighted.

So, she no longer underestimated the girl’s ability and put away her contempt.

Song Ning and Wu Sheng and Lao Ba also tested their shooting skills, and Song Ning’s accuracy also made Wang Ji’s eyes light up, and he praised her repeatedly.

As for strength and physical fitness, Wang Ji didn’t let Ping Chengcheng participate. It was obvious that this girl was not good at it, so there was no need to test it.

Ping Chengcheng was also happy to be idle. It was better not to participate in the test, otherwise she would have to act and pretend to be an ordinary girl.

After the test, Wang Ji had a clear positioning for this team: a long-range precision strike team, suitable for dealing with extremely difficult, dangerous, and threats that needed to be dealt with from a long distance.

“Okay, you can go back.”

Wang Ji chuckled.

Just as Ping Chengcheng was about to leave, Wang Ji’s walkie-talkie rang. He took the walkie-talkie with a solemn expression, and a cold male voice appeared: “Wang Ji, arrange for someone to go to the east side of the city wall. A newly discovered special infected type from yesterday has appeared. It’s a Lurker, and it has broken into the inner wall of the base!”

Wang Ji’s heart skipped a beat. It had actually broken in! If it was a Lurker, it didn’t seem that surprising… except…

Wang Ji focused his eyes on the girl and the others.

“Alright, this is your first mission, I’ll go with you.”

In less than a minute, an armored vehicle roared out of the strike team’s training ground, ignoring the exclamations of the survivors on the street, and speeding all the way, without even slowing down, completely unafraid of killing people.

Wang Ji explained: “These people are dead, but there is a special infected there. The more time is delayed, the greater the loss!”

Song Ning nodded, although she felt a little awkward, she agreed with his statement.

With a sharp turn, a boy was picking up candy on the ground in the middle of the road. Song Ning’s heart sank when she saw it: “Wait a minute.”

But the armored vehicle was too late to slow down, and with a buzz, it ran over him!

This…

Song Ning turned her head sharply and looked at the ground behind the car, a bloody mess. The boy was lying on the ground, his chest heaving. Before his death, he turned his head, his lifeless eyes staring at the direction the armored vehicle was leaving.

It met Song Ning’s gaze.

He, he was just a child.

Wang Ji was silent, not speaking. Wu Sheng and Lao Ba were also speechless in shock, their hearts beating violently. Was this, was this too cold-blooded?

Only Ping Chengcheng was used to it. This was how the apocalypse was. Ordinary people at the bottom were just consumables for the high-level leaders of the base. However… the population density of the A City base was very high, and there was a special infected causing trouble in the base. If they drove a little slower, the casualties might really be greater.

Wang Ji sighed helplessly.

In less than ten minutes, they arrived at the east side of the city wall. The noise became more and more chaotic, screams and cries rising and falling. In the middle of the road, there were seven or eight corpses lying across!

Men and women, old and young, were running in the streets, and a strong smell of blood permeated the air.

More than a dozen members of the security department were in the middle of the road not far away, holding rifles, vigilantly observing the surroundings, trying to find out where the Lurker was.

Only Ping Chengcheng and Song Ning noticed that the Lurker was on the roof of a building on the left, almost blending in with the bricks and tiles of the house! It was poised to strike, accumulating the power to attack, and would choose a suitable time to kill some unlucky person in the middle of the street!
