Hearing that they would reach their camp in just one day, everyone was very excited and full of energy. They gathered a lot of wild vegetables along the way. Although it wouldn't be enough to feed everyone, it would be enough to sustain their lives.

As darkness fell, Platoon Leader Liu found another easily defensible location as their base. This time, everyone was even more enthusiastic, with even women and children joining in.

The fortifications were completed quickly, in just over an hour, and this time everyone had a wooden stick in their hand.

As night fell again, people quietly watched the sky. Perhaps still frightened by the previous two zombie attacks, many did not sleep that night, only falling asleep peacefully when the sky turned gray.

Everyone was puzzled as to why there were no zombies attacking tonight, but it was always a good thing that they didn't come, and no one wanted them to.

The next morning, Platoon Leader Liu got up early to have people get the last bit of wild vegetables from yesterday. There was no rice left, and not many wild vegetables either, but drinking some wild vegetable soup could replenish their strength.

Hearing that they would arrive at their base by noon today, everyone was very excited and set off after breakfast.

After crossing a large mountain, Platoon Leader Liu pointed to the buildings at the foot of the mountain ahead and said, "That's our base!"

Everyone cheered upon hearing this, but Wang Bin was a little disappointed, as the base seemed to be quite small.

Platoon Leader Liu noticed Wang Bin's disappointed expression and quickly walked over, saying, "Before the apocalypse, that was our division headquarters. After the apocalypse broke out, it was converted into a temporary shelter. Don't let its small size fool you; it houses fifty to sixty thousand people. Moreover, we've fenced off the fields around the camp, and we grow our own vegetables and grains there, feeding quite a few people!"

"How come there are only so few people?"

“Every year we send a group of local residents to a settlement, which is our real home. This place is just a temporary residence.”
