Chapter 187 Searching for the Dawn Base
After saying this, Song Zhe put on his simple luggage bag, picked up his weapon, and walked out of the school without looking back.
Several children watched Song Zhe leave until his back disappeared and then they withdrew their gaze.
"Is Azhe going to be okay?"
One of the younger girls asked with some concern.
"Don't worry, Azhe is so powerful, he will be fine."
Although Wang Yu said this, he was more or less unsure in his heart.
After all, no one can predict what kind of dangers they will encounter along the way.
And now Gao Yang is still sick. If Song Zhe fails to invite him back, they really don’t know what to do.
…
On the other side, after leaving school, Song Zhe continued walking along the road.
In fact, he also wanted to take a shortcut, but he was not particularly familiar with the terrain in this area. If he encountered any danger again, it would be a waste of time.
So after much thought, he still felt that it was safer to take the main road.
Although the main road is safe, it also takes more time.
In order not to waste time along the way, Song Zhe basically did not stop to rest.
If you feel tired, slow down and walk for a while, and then continue on your way after you have recovered.
Even if he was tired and thirsty, he did not stop. He just took out a piece of compressed biscuit from his backpack and ate it with water.
They walked and stopped like this until the sun was high in the sky, but Song Zhe still couldn't see the shadow of the Dawn Base.
Looking at the long road ahead, Song Zhe frowned tightly.
If he continues at this speed, he might not reach the Dawn Base until dark.
But Gao Yang's condition simply could not wait that long.
When he thought of Gao Yang still lying in the school classroom, his life or death uncertain, Song Zhe felt that he could not delay any longer.
At this moment, Song Zhe suddenly heard a rustling sound coming from the woods in front of him.
He immediately widened his eyes in alertness and tightly gripped the weapon in his hand.
He walked lightly and slowly approached the woods ahead.
As he got closer, the sounds in the woods became clearer and clearer.
"Everyone, search carefully again to see if there are any survivors."
"Captain, we have searched this area thoroughly. Apart from these mutants, we have not seen any other human figures."
"It's strange. Logically, this area should have been inhabited before. How come there is no one to be seen now?"
"Captain, do you think we are a step too late, so everyone has been killed by the mutants?"
After hearing these voices, Song Zhe finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It seemed that he was too nervous. There were no mutants in the woods but a team searching for survivors.
Song Zhe, who didn't want to cause any more trouble, planned to leave, but he stepped on a dead branch and attracted the attention of those people.
"Who is it?" Several people took two quick steps and appeared in front of Song Zhe.
"child?"
Gu Qi was also a little surprised to see Song Zhe.
Along the way, they didn't see any living people, let alone the shadow of a ghost, except for the mutants.
He originally thought that this area had been completely dominated by mutants, but he didn't expect to see a living child here.
"Where are you from? Are there any other survivors in this area?"
Although Gu Qi was indeed surprised for a moment when he saw Song Zhe, he quickly came to his senses and stared at Song Zhe with a vigilant look and asked.
"Who are you? Are you from the Dawn Base?" Song Zhe did not answer Gu Qi's question. Instead, he stared at him with a vigilant look and asked.
"Dawn Base?"
Gu Qi raised his eyebrows slightly. Although he had never heard of the name of this base, seeing Song Zhe's vigilant look, he understood that this Dawn Base should have been built by the survivors in this area.
"Little friend, we are not from the Dawn Base you mentioned. We are from the Second Survivor Base in the Southwest."
"Did you see any other survivors on your way here? Or do you know of any safer places to stay nearby?"
Although Song Zhe is not their target this time, it would be good if they could get some useful information from him.
"I don't know." Song Zhe shook his head and stared at Gu Qi in front of him with a vigilant look.
Although these men in front of me don't seem to have any ill intentions, I still have to be on guard against them.
What's more, he couldn't be sure whether these people were good people.
If he accidentally let the cat out of the bag and led them to the school, he would be completely doomed.
"Little friend, there's no need for you to be so wary of us. We've saved a lot of people along the way. If you know of other survivors nearby, please tell us and we'll find a way to rescue them."
Other members of the team also chimed in, which made Song Zhe feel a little shaken.
But he still didn't dare to take the risk.
After all, he was not looking for someone to seek refuge in to save his life, but to find someone to save Gao Yang's life. He could not and dared not take the risk.
"I really don't know. You should look somewhere else."
After saying this, Song Zhe turned around and prepared to leave.
His most important task now is to rush to the Dawn Base as soon as possible and tell his elder sister and others about Gao Yang.
As for the people in front of him, he really didn't have the time to waste with them here.
"Little boy, wait a moment." Seeing Song Zhe turn around and leave, Gu Qi quickly called him.
"Do you have anything else to say?" Song Zhe turned around impatiently and looked at Gu Qi with a frown.
"Little friend, this journey is quite dangerous. If you go alone, what if you encounter a mutant?"
"Why don't you come with us? It will be safer with us than by yourself." Gu Qi said this with good intentions.
He had seen too many mutants along the way.
There were many mutated mutants among them, and even these battle-hardened psychics found it difficult to deal with them, not to mention a weak kid like Song Zhe.
However, he didn't know that his words would instantly set off alarm bells in Song Zhe's ears.
Why did this weird uncle insist on letting me leave with him?
Could it be that he wanted to capture me and feed me to the mutants?
When he thought of this, Song Zhe felt the hairs on his body stand up.
He quickly shook his head and stared at Gu Qi with a vigilant look.
"No need, I can do it alone. You guys should go quickly and don't follow me." After saying this, Song Zhe walked forward without looking back.
Looking at Song Zhe's gradually receding back, Gu Qi was a little amused.
I wonder how many times he has been kind in his life, but people don’t appreciate it and always treat him as a bad person.
