Chapter 367 Troublesome

Three days passed quickly. Wu Ming, along with six teammates, waited outside the Dawn Base in two high-performance off-road vehicles.

The temperature is getting lower and lower, and it has already reached nearly minus twenty degrees Celsius.

The heavy snow has been falling continuously since it started, and now there is a thick layer of snow on the road.

The dilapidated city was shrouded in white snow, as if this layer of white could conceal the world's ruin.

The Dawn Base remains lush and green, teeming with life, as if no matter how the world changes, it will not affect the Dawn Base in the slightest.

Two pink RVs drove out of the Dawn Base. Meng Shiwan walked in front, while Ye Sangyu's bulky pink RV followed behind, looking like a muscular Barbie doll.

The expressions of Wu Ming's teammates who witnessed this scene were quite complex.

They questioned Wu Ming, "Captain, when you applied for transportation before, why didn't you think of applying for a motorhome?"

"Yes, speaking of which, we're going to Haicheng. There's heavy snow on the way, so it'll take several days to drive there. Once we get to the coast, we'll have to take a boat to the United States, which will take another half a month. The RV is so much more comfortable."

Wu Ming was also helpless, "A motorhome is not as easy to drive as our off-road vehicle. This is fine, we will have a cabin to live in after we get on the ship, so we don't need to use it."

Several teammates resigned themselves to their fate; they were there to do a mission, not to enjoy themselves.

Meng Shiwan leaned out of the car window. "Shall we go?"

Wu Ming nodded. "Let's go."

The four vehicles formed a convoy and slowly set off.

In heavy snow, it's really hard to drive fast. Even with snow chains on the wheels, you still need to be careful about your speed.

Unfortunately, this time they were going to the farthest point, which would take up a lot of time on the way.

Meng Shiwan wasn't in a hurry. She drove slowly, snacking as she went. When she got tired, she would stop to rest, crawl into the RV, and cook, shower, and sleep.

RVs are truly mobile homes, convenient no matter where you go.

However, Wu Ming and his team were not in good condition. Even though they took turns driving, they were still quite tired when they arrived in Haicheng.

The seed base had already arranged a ship. They boarded the ship, and Meng Shiwan and Ye Sangyu's RV also drove onto the deck.

Wu Ming came over and knocked on Meng Shiwan's car window, "Are you going to rest in the cabin?"

Meng Shiwan shook her head, "No, we're not going. Sleeping in the RV is quite comfortable. We can just stay in the RV."

Looking at Meng Shiwan's RV again, Wu Ming couldn't help but feel a little envious.

I have to admit, this thing is definitely much easier to drive than their off-road vehicle.

Wu Ming said, "Then let's go and rest first."

After Wu Ming left, Ye Sangyu ran over and called to Meng Shiwan, "Sister, we've got nothing to do, so we're thinking of having hot pot. Come on over!"

Meng Shiwan smiled and said, "Okay."

She got out of the RV and followed Ye Sangyu into her RV.

This was Meng Shiwan's first time riding in Ye Sangyu's RV, and the interior of this steel behemoth was indeed much brighter.

Four or five people were wandering around inside; it was a bit crowded, but they could still make their way around.

The RV has a sizable dining table in the middle and a huge TV in front of it.

At this moment, the TV was turned on, playing a funny and lively variety show, which made the whole RV much more lively.

The back part is a kitchen, and there are several beds on the second floor for sleeping.

Qin Nianshu and Lulu were squatting in the corner picking and washing vegetables when they saw Meng Shiwan coming over. They greeted her with smiles.

"Greetings, Base Commander."

"The base commander is here! We're still short of fruit."

Meng Shiwan found Qin Nianshu's bluntness amusing; this child truly had a fearless personality.

Meng Shiwan took out a lot of fruit and drinks, as well as some meat.

As for fresh ingredients, they are not expensive at the base, and they should have stocked up on quite a lot on this trip.

When you're out and about, you can't let your mouth suffer, no matter who you're trying to please.

Sai Xishi was cutting meat when she saw Meng Shiwan and said happily, "Wanwan is here. You sit and wait, dinner will be ready soon."

Ye Sangyu stirred the hot pot in red oil on the table, constantly adding meatballs and opening a few small drinks.

This atmosphere doesn't feel like we're going out on a mission at all; it feels more like a vacation.

Ye Sangyu slapped his forehead. "It would be so comforting to brew wine on a snowy day, warm a pot of wine and drink it."

After saying that, she went to find the ingredients for cooking wine around the stove.

Seeing that there was nothing she could do, Meng Shiwan sat down on the stairs leading to the second floor and watched them busy themselves.

Lulu asked, "Captain, are we going to the United States? I've never been abroad before."

Meng Shiwan nodded, "Yes, this mission might be very dangerous."

Qin Nianshu didn't take it seriously. "Danger? With a group of us, what's dangerous? I can control zombies, Lulu can foresee danger, Sai Xishi can control people's minds, and if all else fails, Ye Sangyu can rewind time and do it again. In the end, the base leader will cover for us. I don't even know how to spell the word 'danger'."

Ye Sangyu interrupted her, "Qin Nianshu, arrogance and conceit are the greatest dangers. You should put away your cleverness. If I say something is dangerous, it must really be dangerous. We still need to be more cautious."

Qin Nianshu, speaking at the Xi Shi competition, said, "My Wanwan is super amazing, there's no danger for her."

Ye Sangyu: ...

Well, these two with personality issues are actually the boldest.

Only Lulu, the most timid one, shrank her neck and looked a bit cowardly.

While they were having a lively time, Wu Ming and his group went into the cabin, where the heating was on, so it wasn't so cold.

They took out compressed biscuits and canned food, and huddled together to discuss their next plan while eating.

Wu Ming said, "Zeus's firearms are very powerful, and a direct confrontation is definitely not an option. Our only option for this operation is to infiltrate and rescue a few experts. However, since we have Eastern faces, infiltration will be very difficult, and we will be easily recognized. This mission is likely to be very troublesome."

The other teammates also looked worried.

"A direct confrontation won't work, and infiltration won't work either. What other plan can we use? Provoke the conflict between the forces, get other bases to fight against the Zeus base, and then we can fish in troubled waters?"

"This plan is also difficult. Nobody is stupid. The strength of the Zeus base in the United States is far ahead. It is no exaggeration to say that most of the United States' resources and weapons are basically concentrated in the Zeus base. Other bases simply do not have the strength to confront the Zeus base head-on. No matter how much you provoke them, other bases will not easily become enemies with the Zeus base."

“We’ve discussed many methods, but they’re either not feasible or too risky. Not only might we fail to rescue the person, but we might also lose our own lives. This mission is difficult.”

"With just our small team and the few people hiding in the US, we think we can take on the largest base in the US head-on? It's like an ant trying to shake an elephant. It's going to be difficult."
