The aroma wafted out of the villa very quickly.
Cha Murong swallowed hard. It was fine if there was no food, but the aroma was incredibly tempting.
Cha Murong glanced at the many freezers piled up against the wall, which were probably all filled with food.
She thought she could sneak away and steal some while everyone was away, and she figured she wouldn't get caught.
However, just as she was about to move in that direction, the female knight raised her sharp dagger, bared her teeth, and growled at her, which frightened Cha Murong so much that her legs went weak and she squatted on the ground.
Inside the villa, Ye Lei and the three goddesses were enjoying a sumptuous lunch.
He even left the door open on purpose, letting the aroma waft out.
He wanted to see how long this stubborn little firecracker could hold out.
"Xu Jiao, your cooking is getting better and better!"
Ye Lei shouted loudly on purpose.
"Thank you for the compliment, Brother Lei!"
"And Chen Xueer and Xia Yuhe, you two also need to learn to cook. You can only win a man's heart by winning his stomach."
"Okay, we're working on it!"
Wow! This fish fillet is so fresh, and this soup is so delicious!
The three school beauties knew Ye Lei, and they deliberately told Cha Murong.
Looking at Cha Murong outside the house, drooling, they thought to themselves, "Why are you doing this to yourself?"
"Alright, I'm full. I have a lot of things to do outside. Remember, don't let her drink a drop of water until Little Chili agrees, understand?"
"I heard you, Brother Lei!"
"I'll leave the female knight to keep an eye on him. If any of you give her food, be careful, she won't recognize you and will kill you all for her dinner!"
"No, we definitely won't, don't worry!"
The three school beauties, having heard that a female knight-errant was watching over them, had originally planned to secretly give Ye Lei some food after he left, but now it seems that won't be possible.
Ye Lei wiped his mouth, got up and walked outside. He walked up to Cha Murong and decided to give her a chance.
"So? Have you figured it out yet?"
"snort……"
"I'd like to see how long that piece of bread I gave you in the gym can last."
"snort……"
"What a cute yet stubborn little firecracker!"
"snort……"
Ye Lei knew that the bread would last until he returned, and then he could slowly train him.
He observed that the Ripper had finished building the fence and was idly shaking a branch. At first glance, the Ripper's appearance was quite cute.
After careful consideration, Ye Lei decided to take it with him. If they encountered a difficult situation, the Ripper could also be a valuable asset.
Ye Lei controlled the Ripper down the back mountain and arrived at the customized luxury Mercedes-Benz SUV. After the Ripper got in and settled in, he stepped on the gas and drove directly out of the school.
Ye Lei planned to go to Desheng Generator Co., Ltd., the largest generator company in Tomato City. He had checked online and found that the company manufactured large generators for use on cruise ships.
Once the newbie protection period at the shelter ends, he'll have to figure out how to solve these problems himself. Until he gets nuclear power, he'll have to rely on diesel generators.
However, Desheng Generator Co., Ltd. is located in the suburbs, far away, and the road conditions are not very good. Abandoned cars and messy garbage can be seen everywhere.
Fortunately, he was driving a powerful Mercedes SUV, which could easily break through the loose garbage. When he encountered abandoned cars, he could only choose to go around them, since he wasn't driving a tank or armored vehicle.
Suddenly, he saw a loader cleaning up the garbage on the roadside, which caught Ye Lei's attention. In this apocalypse, do these road maintenance companies still have to work?
When he drove up to them, he was shocked to find that the driver was not a survivor, but a zombie who was driving very skillfully, at least a graduate of Lanxiang Vocational School.
This discovery piqued Ye Lei's curiosity. The zombies he had encountered were either fighting for food or tearing apart survivors. There were even zombies that could drive loaders. This was really interesting.
I'm currently struggling with the fact that every time I need to escape to a refuge, I can't drive up; I have to park my car downstairs and climb up.
Well, this is great! We've found such a clever zombie. Let's drive back and fix the road. We weren't planning on future shelter maintenance; he's all we need.
He parked his car about 50 meters away from the zombies, worried that they might accidentally drive their loader and scoop up his Mercedes as trash, which would be a real shame.
Walk up to the zombie and try to control it.
[Congratulations, host, you have successfully bound yourself to a zombie.]
After the system notification, the zombie stopped the loader and looked at Ye Lei with a bewildered expression.
[Please name the zombie for easier control.]
Since you're an engineer, let's call you an engineer!
[Zombie Name Successfully Acquired: Engineer]
Ye Lei tried to control the engineer and make it clean the road surface according to his wishes.
Surprisingly, the engineer was very compliant.
Ye Lei couldn't help but wonder: Did this zombie retain its sanity, or had it mutated?
But he didn't have time to think it over. He decided to take the engineer to the shelter first and use it to build roads so that the subsequent shelter construction work could also be entrusted to it.
In this way, Ye Lei could confidently lead the Ripper and the female knight to scavenge for supplies.
Ye Lei noticed a road roller parked nearby, with the keys still inside. He deduced that the driver had fled after the disaster.
So he had Ripper drive the road roller, while he led the way in his Mercedes SUV, and the engineer drove the loader. The group headed toward the back of Tomato University.
Upon reaching the foot of the mountain, Ye Lei designed a road construction route based on the terrain and transmitted it to the engineer. The engineer immediately began work upon receiving the order.
Ye Lei was initially worried that the engineer might lose control, but after observing it for a while, he found that it operated very skillfully.
This led Ye Lei to suspect that it was a highly intelligent zombie, and he hoped that it could play a greater role in the future.
However, Ye Lei thought of another problem: even if the road is flattened, there are no concrete companies now, so it is impossible to pour concrete. Although it is hot now, what if it rains in the future? Wouldn't this road become a muddy dirt road?
Ye Lei thought that wouldn't work, and after careful consideration, he decided to use steel plates to pave the road instead.
He remembered that there were many steel plates piled up at the port dock, where he had been before when he ran errands.
So he decided to go to the port first.
As the saying goes, "To get rich, build roads first." In this apocalyptic world, it is even more necessary to build roads for survival.
After making up his mind, Ye Lei drove his Mercedes SUV, carrying the Ripper, and embarked on his journey to the port.
