In order to establish a healthy ecosystem, the military wiped out all the zombies within hundreds of kilometers of the Yunshan base.
Lu Sheng and his group drove smoothly all the way, and even saw people building bus stops by the roadside.
"What's the point of building a bus stop here? People who can leave the base usually drive themselves," Xiao Yu asked Han Rui casually after summoning a water gun to shoo away the stray dogs blocking the road.
Han Rui grabbed a handful of roasted sunflower seeds from Zhang Xiaojuan's pocket and cracked them open. "I heard that the government wants to gradually urbanize the Yunshan base, like the living conditions before the apocalypse, so they've been putting manpower and resources into restoring infrastructure recently."
"Ideals are beautiful, but reality is harsh."
Zhang Xiaojuan, using soil spikes in conjunction with Xiao Yu, casually remarked, "It took decades to complete infrastructure construction in China. The Yunshan base only has tens of thousands of people. Wouldn't it take hundreds of years to complete urbanization?"
"Why are there two tailgate cars following us? Do you guys even provide two bodyguards for a mission?"
Zhang Xiaojuan leaned out of the car window and whistled at the two cars that were secretly following her.
"Was it sent by that bastard Xia Ran?"
Han Rui angrily raised her middle finger at the two cars behind her.
Neither of the two cars expected Lu Sheng to react so directly, so they immediately slowed down and tried to pretend to pass by.
"That bastard Xia Ran just likes to hide behind men like a coward."
Han Rui cursed and grabbed a handful of soybeans from her pocket, throwing them at him.
The soybeans sprouted rapidly as soon as they hit the ground. Dozens of huge bean sprouts broke through the soil, firmly binding the two SUVs together.
A few people got out of the SUV and tried to cut the bean sprouts with machetes, but the bean sprouts looked fresh and crisp, and the machetes couldn't even make a cut.
"Great! That's really good. With you at the Yunshan base, we don't even need to fertilize the crops anymore." Zhang Xiaojuan was surprised, but gave Han Rui a thumbs up in sincere affirmation.
Han Rui blushed red from his retort, and the two of them playfully wrestled and pinched each other in the car.
Lu Sheng glanced at the group of people who were diligently breaking bean sprouts in the rearview mirror.
Han Rui actually possesses a wood-type ability, but her ability level is not high, and she must use a seed to activate her skills.
The two vehicles were stuck with Han Rui's bean sprouts and couldn't keep up for a while. Xu Yi stepped on the gas, and the RV roared out of the Yunshan Base's territory.
Once outside the base, the number of scattered zombies on the road gradually increased.
Xiao Yu and Sun Tiantian were in one group, and Han Rui and Zhang Xiaojuan were in another. The two groups sat on the left and right sides, respectively dealing with the approaching zombies and mutated plants and animals.
Under the relentless bombardment of water guns, ice blades, soil spikes, and bean sprouts, these scattered soldiers couldn't even get close to the RV.
The six people worked together seamlessly, and the RV traveled smoothly all the way, arriving at the mission location in three hours.
Hongcheng County, where this mission is being conducted, is relatively close to the capital city, and many companies set up their factories and warehouses there.
Thanks to the economy built around these factories, although it is a county town, its prosperity even surpasses that of some third- and fourth-tier cities.
"Hongcheng County is quite large, covering approximately 3,000 square kilometers."
Xu Yi took out an electronic map and pointed to the red area in the middle of the map, "The medical equipment warehouse we are looking for is in the very center of the county town."
There are no shortcuts; you have to fight your way in no matter which path you choose.
Lu Sheng glanced around and saw that the streets were full of roaming zombies. At least half of the people in Hongcheng County were infected with the zombie virus.
Based on the estimated permanent population, there are at least 100,000 zombies in the county town.
This number of zombies cannot be killed off in a short time; it will take at least two or three days to clear them out in Hongcheng County.
Lu Sheng searched the map and finally determined the route.
"Let's start from the southwest and try to get here before dark. There's a hotel where we can stay for the night."
Visibility was too poor at night, so it was better to find a place to stay for the time being than to risk traveling.
The area surrounding the county town is mostly industrial zones, with each factory employing hundreds or even thousands of workers.
The zombies along the way were unusually dense, making it impossible for the RV to move. The group of people had to get out and walk forward.
The sheer number of zombies impaired Zhuangzhuang's judgment, so he simply abandoned his detection abilities and focused entirely on hunting them.
After several rounds of practice, Lu Sheng and his team gradually established a set of road-clearing methods.
Zhang Xiaojuan first activated the ground to drive the large wave of zombies to the middle of the street. Once the zombies had gathered, Sun Tiantian used the ice road to restrict the movement of the zombie horde, and Han Rui used bean sprouts to trap the horde.
Then Xiao Yu used a water hose to wet the zombie horde and then connected it to Lu Sheng's electric grid.
With a smooth combo, the zombies on the street were basically electrocuted and charred.
For those with strong vitality, Xu Yi would finish them off with a nail gun.
The group worked together seamlessly and cleared the road very quickly.
After dealing with the large wave of zombies, the most troublesome task was still extracting their brains. Even with several people working together, it took more than ten minutes to finish.
Lu Sheng's system notifications never stopped, and the extra rewards he received in the space quickly piled up into a small mountain.
To save time, the group skipped lunch and pushed forward aggressively, finally arriving at Lu Sheng's pre-arranged rest location two hours ahead of schedule.
"I never imagined there would be a four-star hotel in the county town."
The group searched around using the map and finally stopped in front of the Cloud Hotel.
Because it's far from the factory area, there are almost no zombies on the streets. Occasionally, there are a few mutated stray dogs, but Zhang Xiaojuan kills them all with two blows of her stick.
The hotel door was locked, and no one answered the door even after Sun Tiantian knocked several times.
"The door lock has a combination lock. If you force it open, the entire security system will sound an alarm, and the noise might attract a horde of zombies from the vicinity."
Lu Sheng checked around and found that most of the people staying at the hotel in Hongcheng County were business people who had come for business negotiations and had high requirements for the hotel's security.
The cloud hotel has just opened, and the investment in this area is substantial.
"I'll do it."
Zhang Xiaojuan told Lu Sheng and the others to step back, and took out an ultra-thin laptop from her backpack.
After removing the outer casing of the electronic lock with a screwdriver, I pulled out two connecting cables and connected the computer to the lock. Then I typed a series of numbers on the screen.
A moment later, the electronic door lock emitted a beeping unlocking sound.
“Juan…you…”
Xiao Yu hesitated, wanting to speak but stopping herself... Who would be so kind as to easily crack an electronic door lock...?
The people looked at Zhang Xiaojuan with a hint of suspicion and wariness.
"Don't overthink it. I used to be a programmer at DaMi Company, and this door lock is one of our products."
Zhang Xiaojuan hurriedly explained and even opened DingTalk to show the people her identity verification.
The group entered the hotel and found it empty.
But the geothermal system was still running, and as soon as you opened the door, a wave of hot air hit you.
