Chapter 262 Allies traveling together
"I hope everything goes well for my older brother..."
Han Shuo closed the door and muttered to himself.
This time, the two captains made two completely different choices.
However, it will not affect their previous relationship in the slightest.
Because Han Shuo respects Qing Yu's choice, and Qing Yu also understands Han Shuo's decision.
After all, the two of them had different obsessions...
...
When Han Shuo returned to the living room, he noticed that Xiao Zhao's eyes were very red.
Xiao Zhao held back her tears, forced a smile, and then quickly ran back to her room.
He was really losing control of his emotions and needed to find a quiet place to release and process them.
"well."
Han Shuo sighed and didn't say anything more.
At this moment, he was also feeling very sad.
Not only him, but Fatty and Li Shurou also had a good relationship with Qingyu.
Both of them were also worried.
Although Director Yue Zongyang said that in the battle that followed, they had a 60% chance of winning.
Although the underground research institute seems to have a better chance of winning, there is still nearly a 50% chance of them losing.
This means that after everyone evacuates from the underground research institute, there is a 40% chance that they will never see Qingyu again.
In fact, most of the time, when faced with disasters or diseases, even knowing that there is only a one percent chance of death is enough to cause panic in people's hearts.
This is normal, because everyone only has one life, and only by fearing death can we cherish life more...
The decision Qingyu made today means that he is facing a 40% risk of death, which shows how much pressure he is under.
Xiao Zhao understands this, which is why he can't control his emotions.
He feared he would never see Captain Qingyu's face again.
...
"Alright, everyone, calm yourselves down and let's continue discussing what to do next."
Han Shuo didn't want the uncomfortable atmosphere to continue, so he didn't bring up what had just happened and quickly changed the subject.
Everyone nodded, each managing to compose themselves.
Han Shuo looked at Cheng Shenghong and spoke.
"Brother Demon Man, I suppose you share the same thoughts as us?"
“That’s right, Brother Han, I’ve also decided to lead the brothers to evacuate from here ahead of schedule.”
Cheng Shenghong continued.
"I don't have any heroic sentiments. I arrived late and don't have a deep connection to this place. Compared to everyone here, I care more about the lives of my brothers."
Although his words were somewhat harsh, they were indeed the truth.
In this respect, Han Shuo felt that the two were quite similar.
They both clearly understood their own positions and shared the same selfish motives, so they made the same decision.
Han Shuo nodded in understanding, then a thought suddenly popped into his head. After quickly thinking about it, he spoke.
"In that case, Brother Demon Man, would your team be interested in traveling with us?"
After saying this, Cheng Shenghong couldn't hide his joy and quickly replied.
"Haha, it would be great to travel with you all. I was worried that you might find us unpleasant, Brother Han."
Cheng Shenghong had had this idea in his mind for a long time, but he was too embarrassed to say it out loud.
He now knows that Han Shuo has completed his third evolution, even though his ally's team only has six members.
However, with the help of genetically evolved humans at level 3, Han Shuo and his team's overall strength was already at the upper-middle level within the underground research institute.
Outside, if you rely on numbers when facing ordinary zombies, then when facing alien species, you need to rely more on individual combat abilities.
Because some powerful alien species cannot kill instantly, there may not be much difference between a few people and dozens of people.
To reduce casualties, the only option is to rely on the genetically evolved humans who have undergone multiple evolutions to resist and contain them.
Cheng Shenghong was naturally very willing to be able to latch onto such a powerful figure.
...
Han Shuo smiled and waved his hand before speaking.
"Brother Yao Nan, don't rush to respond, because although I've decided to leave this place, it might be a little later."
Cheng Shenghong had some doubts and asked.
"Oh? The Legion of Death could arrive here at any moment. Shouldn't we evacuate as soon as possible for our safety?"
"That's the logic now, but apart from a few drops of turbid liquid, I have almost no other supplies."
Han Shuo, with his long-term perspective, patiently explained to him.
"Brother Yao Nan, you must have noticed by now that nearly two years have passed since the Ice Crystal Virus descended."
"Now, there is almost no food to eat outside. If we leave here empty-handed, even if we escape the Death Legion, we will probably starve to death outside sooner or later."
"Hmm...that's true. I was oversimplifying things."
Cheng Shenghong frowned, thought for a moment, and then continued.
"I don't have much food stored up either, Brother Han, do you have any good ideas?"
After saying this, the fat man vaguely understood Han Shuo's intention.
He slapped his thigh hard and hurriedly shouted from the side.
"Long-haired man, are you stupid? You should have made a killing before you left! Traded for food in the underground research institute and smuggled it out with you!"
Cheng Shenghong glanced at the fat man sideways and replied casually.
"Of course I know that, but everyone's broke right now. Are you going to give me supplies in exchange?"
The fat man was naturally a little unconvinced after being rebuked. He was about to retort when Han Shuo reached out and interrupted him.
"Alright, you two stop arguing and listen to me."
Han Shuo shook his head helplessly and voiced his thoughts.
"Brother Yao Nan, a few days ago, our original goal was to go to a chemical laboratory in the northwest, but we had to turn back due to an unexpected incident."
"My idea is that we go there together tomorrow to search for enough chemical materials, then return to the underground research institute and exchange all the chemical materials for food. This way, we'll have basic security outside and won't starve to death in a short time."
“I’ve calculated it. If there are no delays on the road and everything goes smoothly, our round trip should take about four days. This trip isn’t very long.”
After speaking, Cheng Shenghong pondered for a moment, then nodded to Han Shuo.
"Yes, I feel there's no problem. We do need these supplies to exchange for a large amount of food."
He also felt that everyone's luck shouldn't be that bad; if they delayed their evacuation by four or five more days, they wouldn't be trapped here by the Legion of Death...
