Farming in the Apocalypse

Returning ten years ago, with only two months left until the giant storm, Jing Shu began building her fortress, raising some endangered chickens, ducks, and fish, planting some vegetables that woul...

Chapter 845: Even the most powerful battle has casualties

The vanguard group that set out this time was not as shabby as the convoy, with buses full of refugees that looked miserable. Instead, it was led by two rows of super-heavy armed tanks, which directly crushed the difficult muddy road into flat tracked land.

The helicopter fighter hovered in the dark sky, the propellers making a buzzing sound, and turned on the patrol high beam to be on guard everywhere.

Following behind are multifunctional armed armored vehicles, some equipped with missiles and some with cannons, and the armed force is off the charts.

At the back was the modified vehicle that the combatants and high-end technicians were riding in. Even the green giants lined up in an orderly manner, protecting an armored vehicle in the center.

This scene was even more impressive than a military parade, and more visually shocking than any American blockbuster. It made Jingshu feel her blood boiling and filled with a sense of security.

The armored vehicle had been temporarily converted into a combat command center. Twelve screens flashed live information about the situation outside. There were also two command reception rooms, where dispatch professionals constantly received messages from various departments via intercoms and other communications.

"Reporting to headquarters, 10:02, 107.08, 32.668 section of the road is safe!"

"Dongfang 123, stand 26, flying according to the planned route, starting altitude 800 meters, visibility less than 500 meters, fog, slight low-level wind shear, turbulence, requesting to climb..."

"Reporting to headquarters, the first base station has been installed and debugged, and is now ready for use. We expect to receive a signal wave every three hours..."

Jun Bao frowned as he sat in the command center. After entering the new map, not only was the muddy ground difficult to walk on, but fog soon began to appear, which further affected detection and driving speed in the dark night. He glanced at the dozen or so people sitting in the conference room of the command center, and only after seeing Hao Yun coming did his brows relax a little.

This time, with these special people around, it will probably be easier.

"You are all special talents in Wucheng. If you have any good opinions or suggestions, please raise them directly and we can discuss them together. Now, please tell us about your respective areas of expertise."

Among the dozen or so people present, there was a refined young man wearing gold-rimmed glasses; a serious-looking, aloof lady in a short skirt and a professional suit; a professor-level figure with gray hair, gesturing madly at a picture; a man in tight clothes resembling a knight in ancient costume; and a bold uncle in tattered clothes wearing large shorts.

There is also a strange woman like Jingshu who wears a big cotton-padded jacket without caring about her image and vomits from time to time... Oh, wait.

"Jingshu...what's wrong with you? Why do you look so bad?"

Jingshu waved her hands, covered her mouth and said, "This is so bumpy, it makes me want to vomit."

The high spirits they had when they set out had disappeared. Even though the modified armored vehicle was driving on a road that had been crushed by tanks, it was still uneven and had many potholes. It also did not have the shock absorption system that was specially modified in their own RV, which made the pampered Jingshu feel carsick.

"I have some Chinese herbal anti-emetic patches prescribed by Dr. Zhang. Can I give you some?" Jun Bao said.

"No, if there's nothing else, I'd rather ride the Hulk. Give me a walkie-talkie and call me if anything happens." Jingshu quickly refused. She didn't know how long the journey would be, and she didn't want to be bumped around and vomit all the time. The Hulk had been trained, and even if he walked on this kind of terrain, he wouldn't be bumpy, but would be much more comfortable.

"Okay, then you go to the Hulk and have a good rest first." Jun Bao was somewhat disappointed. He originally wanted to have a free lunch, but Jingshu was carsick and was afraid that she would not have the appetite to cook.

"You guys discuss this first. By the way, this place is foggy and humid, and the temperature is not as low as in Wucheng. It is the best breeding ground for all kinds of insects. Ask Doctor Zhang to prepare more anthelmintics. If it is not enough, I still have mugwort." Jingshu got out of the car after she finished speaking. Before her feet touched the mud, she was caught in the mouth of the Hulk.

"Who was that girl just now? We were in a meeting, and she actually left without permission. She has no rules. Can't she even get over motion sickness? Your people in power are so easy to talk to, they even personally sent their subordinates off."

OL woman in professional attire

She adjusted her glasses. In her worldview, no boss would treat a subordinate like this, no matter how much he valued them. No subordinate would dare to leave an important meeting at will. That attitude would be like being at home.

"You're an assistant sent by Shinran to provide assistance. It's normal that you don't know the identity of that little girl. Don't mess with her. You can't afford to offend a girl like you." The white-haired old man put down the pen he was using to draw the map and shook his head. "Hey, there's something wrong with the route of this plate..."

The woman in her office attire frowned as she flipped through the information in her hand. The only person she was extremely cautious about was a person with special abilities named Hao Yunlai. But she didn't mention there was another woman like him. She nudged the man in the traditional costume and asked, "Xiao Wu, is she a person with special abilities?"

The man was wiping his long knife and shook his head when he heard this: "I don't know. I can't see or feel anything unusual."

The young man with gold-rimmed glasses smiled. "Let's not talk about that girl for now, but people in power are not easy to talk to. As an outsider, do you have any misunderstandings? Okay, let's discuss our respective areas of expertise, shall we? And then... elect a captain?"

...

Jingshu didn't know what happened in the car. She only knew that it was so comfortable in the Hulk RV made up of two Hulks. Without the previous bumps and shaking, Jingshu soon stopped feeling dizzy.

After taking a comfortable hot bath, half lying in the tub, drinking some orange juice, eating some mousse cake, some cheese and durian pastry, and some roast duck roll pancakes... Listening to the reports from various channels coming from the intercom from time to time, Jingshu fell asleep comfortably...

Until...screams and alarms were heard outside.

Jingshu woke up suddenly. The fat chicken flapped its wings and flew up from the nest. It was clucking and circling around, looking extremely excited.

However, there was no energy fluctuation, so it should be a minor incident.

Jing Shu calmly put on her clothes, dried her wet hair, and boarded the armored vehicle next to her. Besides the people who were staying there today, there were also several people on stretchers and Dr. Zhang, who was examining them.

"What happened? Are there any injured people?" With such a great scene, how could there be any injured people?

Doctor Zhang is almost 80, but he looks about 60. He turned and saw Jingshu, forcing a smile onto his serious face. "It's Jingshu. I was just about to come find you. They were bitten by insects."

"Is it poisonous?" Jingshu walked forward, rolled up her sleeves, put on gloves and a hood, and everyone in the group was stunned.

"Not poisonous, but a little tricky."
