Chapter 324 Lu Nange: I really can drive!
The five walked straight towards the base gate...
The survivors who were cleaning the road earlier have disappeared, leaving only pedestrians and guards patrolling around.
Chi Qi caught a glimpse of Lu Nange and the others.
Without a second thought, he flipped off the watchtower and sprinted towards them: [Brother Chi has already warned us that these two siblings are like royalty to our young master! You idiot, run!]
Just as he was about to reach her, he suddenly slammed on the brakes, abruptly stopping in his tracks. His tone was respectful but slightly hurried: "Miss Lu... Miss Lu?"
Gu Wan: "Chi Qi... what's going on?"
Chi Qi: "I just came to ask if you're going out?"
Lu Nange nodded: "We want to go out for a walk."
Chi Qi: "Miss Lu, do you need us to follow us?"
Lu Nange shook her head: "No need, we'll just wander around nearby."
Chi Qi: "Do we need to arrange a vehicle?"
"No need." Lu Nange then asked, "What registration procedures are required when going out?"
Chi Qi: "You can pick up a temporary pass at the entrance. When you come back, just show your ID and have your face scanned."
Lu Nange: "If we find a usable vehicle outside, can we drive it back to base?"
“Of course!” Chi Qi said confidently, “The supplies and vehicles found outside the base belong to the finder.”
Lu Nange nodded: "Thank you, then let's get the passes first."
Chi Qi stepped aside to lead the way: "Okay, please come this way."
After obtaining their passes, Lu Nange and her group of five walked out of the base gate without incident.
Guard: "Brother Chi Qi, these guys wouldn't happen to be... the demon god that's been making headlines in the base these past few days, would they?"
Chi Qi: "They're the ancestors of the evil spirits! Alright, stop asking around and get back to your work."
After saying that, he quickly hid back in the guardhouse next door, picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "Brother Chi, Miss Lu and the others have left the base."
Holding the walkie-talkie, Chi Yi strode toward Chi Yanzhou and his group, who were trying to "win people over with virtue": "Young Master, Nan Nan and the others have left the base."
Chi Yanzhou nodded slightly: "Understood."
He Zhuo: "What? Mei Bao didn't take us with her and just went out?"
Gu Qi: "Keep your voice down!"
He Zhuo lowered his voice: "Didn't you say you were leaving in three days?"
Chi Yanzhou: "I guess the supplies sold well today, so I plan to go out and buy some more goods in a 'legitimate' way."
......
The area surrounding the Flameheart Base is unusually deserted, with only a few scattered zombies wandering around due to regular clearing operations...
Lu Nange held Lu Beiye's hand, while Lu Beiye held Zhizhi in his arms, and Gu Wan stood to Lu Beiye's right.
Wen Qing stood to Lu Nange's left, holding a Tang sword, with Gangzi perched on his shoulder.
Luo Xingyou stood beside Wen Qing, her eyes scanning their surroundings warily...
Lu Nange had just started to speak when she said, "Let's wander around for a bit first, then head back to the base..."
Before he could finish speaking, the walkie-talkie in his backpack suddenly crackled to life.
Chi Yanzhou's voice rang out: "Be careful."
Lu Xici followed closely behind: "Come back soon."
Lu Nange: "Don't worry, I'll be back in a bit."
About 600 meters from the base, Lu Nange found a secluded corner and took Lu Xici's G-Class out of her spatial storage.
Lu Nange: "Let me fill the trunk first..."
Although they knew that Lu Nange's mental energy was on alert, Lu Beiye and the other three still stood at the four corners of the vehicle, keeping an eye on the outside.
After Lu Nange filled the trunk with various supplies and closed the door, she asked, "Shall I drive you around?"
Luo Xingyou: "Let me drive!"
Lu Nange: "Sister Xingyou, I really do have a driver's license."
Luo Xingyou: "Mainly because my hands were itchy..."
Lu Nange: "...Guess if I believe you?"
Finally, Luo Xingyou got into the driver's seat, Gu Wan was in the passenger seat, and Lu Nange, Lu Beiye and Wen Qing were squeezed into the back seat.
The vehicle started and had only traveled about a kilometer when the number of zombies on the road became visibly denser.
With a flick of his wrist, Lu Beiye unleashed several golden threads that shot out, piercing precisely between the zombie's eyebrows.
The tendrils followed closely behind, deftly coiling out the crystal nucleus with fluid movements...
Gangzi let out a sharp shriek and suddenly flew out of the car window. His body grew larger in the air, his wings whipped up a cold wind, and ice spikes rained down on the horde of corpses.
Gu Wan: "This extreme cold has really been keeping Gangzi cooped up! We didn't even have to lift a finger; Aye and the other two took care of it all."
Lu Nange: "There are no high-level zombies nearby. Since we're going to move around anyway, let's just deal with all the zombies in the vicinity."
They drove around the Flameheart base for more than two hours, clearing out all the zombies within a kilometer radius of the base—both on the roads and in the buildings—before turning around and starting their return journey.
The vehicle slowly approached the base gate. Gu Wan took out her pass and waved it out the window.
The guard lowered his binoculars and shouted into the house, "Brother Qi, the ancestors of those ruthless bastards... are back in their car!"
Chi Qi: "What are you all standing there for? Let them through!"
Guard: "But they... had an extra car."
Chi Qi: "Routine inspection according to regulations."
Luo Xingyou drove slowly through the gate.
Chi Qi led his team forward and meticulously carried out the inspection procedures.
After Lu Nange and the others finished scanning their faces, they stood quietly to one side and waited...
Chi Qi looked at the truck loaded with supplies and said, "Miss Lu, your efficiency is amazing! You actually found so many supplies!"
Lu Nange: "Hmm, we're pretty lucky today. Can we drive this car straight back to the villa area?"
Chi Qi nodded immediately: "Of course."
Several guards, holding inspection equipment, carefully checked the vehicle inside and out before stepping back to signal for it to pass.
Luo Xingyou restarted the engine and drove slowly toward the villa area.
When they returned to the villa, Chi Yanzhou and the others had not yet come back, and Grandpa Chi and Uncle Chi were not home either.
Lu Nange opened the door with her key, and Luo Xingyou parked the car in the garage.
Gu Wan: "Come on, let's move the supplies."
Lu Nange: "I'll put it in my spatial storage, and then take it out when I get to the living room."
Lu Beiye looked up at the sky: "Sister, the weather is so nice... Can we have a barbecue in the yard tonight?"
Lu Nange smiled and replied, "Of course."
Wen Qing looked out at the spacious courtyard, her tone tinged with anticipation: "Shall we begin preparations now?"
Lu Nange: "Let's just call everyone together. I'll go to the trading market and buy some things."
Luo Xingyou: "Nan Nan, I'll go with you."
Gu Wan immediately pulled out a walkie-talkie and waved it: "I'll notify them!"
When Chi Yanzhou and his group returned to the villa as the sun set, the entire courtyard was filled with the distinctive aroma of charcoal.
The two long tables were laden with food: tender meat, marinated chicken wings, skewered vegetables, plump mushrooms...
A dazzling array of fresh vegetables and dipping sauces...
He Zhuo took a deep breath as soon as he entered the door: "We're home! So, can we finally have a drink tonight?"
