"Although I don't know how you plan to break through the checkpoint on the cross-river bridge, I am clear that if we do, it will surely attract the attention of the military!"
"We can't afford to be the bird that sticks its head out!"
"And as long as the whole world falls into panic, with riots breaking out everywhere, no one will pay attention to us anymore!"
Halfway through listening, Liu Yuqing had already understood, and upon hearing Zhao Zhirou's analysis, her view of Ray changed even more.
"So that's the plan!"
She hadn't expected Ray to have considered such a long-term plan.
"With just one sentence, you've guessed my intention," Ray nodded after hearing Zhao Zhirou's analysis, "I might have underestimated you a bit!"
Flattered by Ray's praise, Zhao Zhirou's face reddened, "I was just guessing."
Ray smiled, "Being able to guess is impressive enough."
...
At 9 p.m.,
While chatting with the two women, Ray checked the time.
"It's getting late, let's start!"
Ray instructed, "Jarvis, upload all the zombie videos we've captured from yesterday and today to the internet! Also, upload videos of the military killing people and zombies. Make sure they're edited to be untraceable and undeletable!"
"Right away, sir!"
Jarvis complied and immediately uploaded all the videos captured through various cameras to the internet.
Almost instantly, the homepage of mainstream video websites in countries that had not yet collapsed was completely covered with videos related to zombies!
Seeing this, Zhao Zhirou and Liu Yuqing, driven by curiosity, each grabbed a laptop and opened a video website to browse.
Liu Yuqing opened a domestic website, while Zhao Zhirou, with her background in the special police and some knowledge of foreign websites, chose to open a foreign site after seeing Liu Yuqing access a domestic one.
No matter whether it was foreign or domestic video websites, the videos posted by Jarvis had completely covered the entire homepage of the site!
"So many!?"
With surprise, the two women randomly clicked on a video.
It was a video captured by street surveillance cameras at the onset of the apocalypse.
The streets, jammed with cars, saw zombies emerging, roaring as they knocked down and bit clueless pedestrians.
Screams, cries of agony, and shouts were nonstop...
Cars collided, emitting thick white smoke, igniting bright sparks, and eventually exploding, leaving behind wreckage.
The ground was littered with dried brown blood, remnants of limbs, and gruesomely mutilated corpses.
"Ho ho... ho..."
"He he... he he..."
Zhao Zhirou showed no emotion, while Liu Yuqing slightly furrowed her brows. Although she had gradually gotten used to it, this was her first time seeing the dreadful state of the streets at the beginning of the apocalypse, which touched her somewhat.
Turning their attention from the video, the two women opened the comments.
"Is this a movie? The special effects are so realistic!"
"My God! Even Wox Studios' special effects couldn't be this lifelike, right? And these extras are way too dedicated!"
"Which movie's trailer is this? Really want to watch it!"
"This movie will definitely be a blockbuster nationwide when it's released! So cool!"
Seeing this, Liu Yuqing couldn't help but shake her head speechlessly, "They actually think it's a movie being filmed, with special effects..."
Zhao Zhirou also shook her head, as she saw similar comments on the international websites, "These people are still in the dark, living in safe cities. It's normal for them to think this way, after all, no one expected scenes we used to only see in movies to happen in real life."
"Holy shit? That guy looks familiar? Looks like an old classmate of mine. Isn't he supposed to be working in Shangbin City? When did he start being an extra?"
"Wait a minute! Brother upstairs, if you hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have noticed. Isn't this place Fuhua Street in Shangbin City?"
"Fuhua Street? Holy crap! It really is! My cousin works there!"
"Idiots! Don't you guys look at the video title?"
Shangbin City has completely fallen! It has become a zombie paradise!
"Really? Fallen? A zombie paradise? Are you joking? Shangbin City is so big! With a population of over ten million, how could it just fall like that?"
"Exactly, if it's fallen, then what's left?"
"I just tried calling my cousin, couldn't get through!"
"I tried calling an old classmate, also couldn't get through!"
...
The comment section, initially filled with admiration for the realistic movie effects and praise for the quality, shifted to doubt that the events in the video might be real. People began making phone calls to verify, leading to a wave of panic-stricken comments.
Liu Yuqing and Zhao Zhirou saw all this and occasionally shook their heads and discussed a few sentences, finding the comments ridiculous.
Because they had opened many videos and read the comments below, they found that even now, people still did not believe that the apocalypse had arrived!
They also remarked on how well the military kept secrets, and how low the vigilance and insight of netizens were, among other things.
Sitting on the sofa with a can of beer, Ray watched them with a smile, not interrupting their discussion.
They had already started to gradually get used to this collapsing world!
A few minutes later, after finishing his drink, "Keep an eye out, I'm going to the room to organize and tally up the guns and ammunition."
"Do you need my help?" Zhao Zhirou turned to look.
"No need."
Ray discarded the can and waved his hand.
He got up, returned to the room, and after closing the door, Ray took out all the firearms and ammunition from ten weapon bags in one go, neatly arranging them on the floor of the room.
It took him about seven to eight minutes to do a rough tally.
There was one heavy sniper rifle, two light sniper rifles, seven assault rifles, five shotguns, ten pistols, ten military knives, fifty grenades, 3000 rounds of 7.62mm bullets, 1500 rounds of 5.8mm bullets, and 1500 rounds of 5.56mm bullets.
Sitting on the bed with a cigarette in hand, Ray looked at these firearms and called out, "System, do you have any good modification plans for these firearms?"
