Su Zheng, his face flushed from ruptured blood vessels, looked at Lu Sheng, panting, "Today we all depend on you. You're in charge of distributing this food."
Apart from the Dawn Base, which left looking disheveled, the only remaining major bases present were K3, Soaring, and Rising Sun.
Some smaller bases have little say; they're lucky if they can even get a share of the spoils.
Besides helping to deal with the hardened zombies that had been controlled, the rest of the audience cheered for Lu Sheng.
If Lu Sheng and the others hadn't killed the level 5 zombie today, everyone present could have been celebrating their seventh day after death.
Lu Sheng was focused on checking Xiao Yu's injuries and didn't really want to talk to her.
These broken corn kernels are too much trouble to feed pigs, and they wouldn't even take up enough space if she went back.
The main problem is that the pigs, cattle, sheep, chickens, and ducks at the base have developed a refined palate and eat more delicate food than people outside. This stuff would be of no use to her if she took it back.
She exchanged a recovery potion from the system store, and just as she pried open Xiao Yu's mouth to pour it in, the corroded and torn clothes on her shoulders suddenly slipped down a little.
The right shoulder collar was the most severely corroded, with only a thin, fragile strip of fabric hanging down, revealing a large expanse of snow-white skin.
The slanted opening stretched all the way down to below the collarbone, subtly revealing a hint of undulating curves.
Having spent three years navigating the apocalypse in his previous life, Lu Sheng no longer had any particular reaction to this situation.
In an environment where simply surviving was a luxury, men and women were all the same, so there was no embarrassment about whether or not they were exposed.
Lu Sheng lowered his head to tie a knot in the damaged area when he suddenly felt a weight on his shoulder.
A white cotton-linen shirt, still warm from her body, was draped over her shoulders.
She knew without even thinking whose clothes they were.
After all, apart from Teacher Xu, no one would wear a short-sleeved shirt in 40-degree weather.
"Thank you." Lu Sheng looked up at Xu Yi, her lips involuntarily stiffening slightly.
Goodness, she took off her shirt and was wearing a white tank top underneath. Isn't it hot in this weather??
She was a little curious whether there would be anything like a breast protector underneath after she took off her vest...
After all, it was the first time she had ever seen someone wearing two layers of clothing in 40-degree weather.
Xu Yi didn't say anything, but raised his hand and buttoned the top button of his shirt collar.
Lu Sheng's mind was focused on Xiao Yu's injury, and he couldn't spare the time to help her. So he didn't stand on ceremony with Xu Yi and whispered a thank you.
Han Rui, Ma Dongmei, and Lin Xiaobao exchanged glances and raised their eyebrows at each other.
"Teacher Xu's book on male virtues must be worn out from reading it so many times! Why is he covering it up so tightly? Is he afraid someone will see it?"
Ma Dongmei gave Lu Sheng a mysterious smile and gently nudged him with her shoulder.
“Some people are born with fewer sweat glands and don’t sweat much; maybe he is one of them,” Lu Sheng replied casually.
Seeing the resolute expression on Lu Sheng's face, the remaining people pursed their lips in unison.
Even Zhuangzhuang shook his head repeatedly.
There's a fool, but he won't say who it is!
"Miss Lu dealt with the most critical two-headed zombie and got 40%, K3 base helped to distract them, and Lin Xiaoduo resolved the mutated rat horde on the way here. Our two sides each got 20%, and the remaining 20% was divided equally among the remaining teams."
Seeing that Lu Sheng remained silent, Lin Weicheng hesitated for a moment before speaking.
As soon as he finished speaking, the Sunrise Base and the remaining small teams of individual investors all showed their dissatisfaction.
But they dared not speak out against their anger.
After all, they really didn't put in much effort along the way; they were lucky if they got to eat the scraps that slipped through their fingers while others were eating.
It's because I'm not as skilled as others.
Everyone saw Lu Sheng kill the two-headed zombie with a few slashes. No matter how tough they are, can they outlast a level 5 zombie?
Moreover, even if the average is 20%, it should be enough to last for two or three months, at least enough to get through the most difficult period.
"Whatever you say."
Lu Sheng waved his hand dismissively.
Little did she know that her aloof attitude was seen as a sign of a powerful figure by others.
How incredibly wealthy must they be! They don't even care about a few hundred tons of grain!
Lu Sheng is too lazy to hide it now. Her base is already built, so even if she wanted to hide her wealth, she couldn't anymore.
Just do whatever you want!
It's the apocalypse, so of course we should do whatever makes us comfortable!
Once the grain has been allocated, the remaining task is to load it onto trucks in batches and transport it back to the base.
"I've given you my share." After helping Xiao Yu into the car, Lu Sheng casually patted Ma Dongmei on the shoulder.
Ma Dongmei is a straightforward and unpretentious person, which suits my taste.
She had no use for the corn kernels, and transporting them back would just take up space, so she simply gave them to Ma Dongmei.
"No, you've already helped us so much, how can we take your share of the food?"
Ma Dongmei frowned and reached out to stop Lu Sheng.
"Consider it a loan from me. I'll ask you for it again when I want to use it."
Lu Sheng smiled faintly, nimbly jumped into the car, leaned out of the window, and waved goodbye to Ma Dongmei.
She had already reaped a great harvest on this trip; the space was filled with mountains of zombie flesh and blood, and the system had also unlocked new modules.
The K3 base has taken in more than 20,000 refugees, and these several hundred tons of food can at least ensure stability for a period of time.
Otherwise, if these 40,000 people were left stranded outside, it might cause her trouble as well.
They had already cleared out most of the zombies along the way, and Lu Sheng and her team returned to their base in just two hours.
Xiao Yu's injuries were quickly treated with the help of the store's medicine and Xu Yi's superb medical skills.
"A month of rest should be enough," Xu Yi instructed Xiao Yu after putting on a cast.
After a long day of activity, everyone was so tired they could barely keep their eyes open. Once everyone had gone back to their bedrooms, Lu Sheng went out into the yard alone.
