Chapter 21 Military
It was a small zombie wave. Not counting the zombies that hadn't arrived yet, there were about several hundred zombies. However, the military had only about thirty people fighting with weapons, which was a huge difference.
The joining of Yu Yao and Luo Mei greatly alleviated the pressure on these soldiers.
Their cruelty and strength made even the tough soldiers look at them sideways and couldn't help but take a few more glances.
More than half an hour later, hundreds of zombies were perfectly dealt with. Yu Yao endured the numbness and pain in her arms caused by swinging too much, and calmly put away the knife.
Luo Mei also came to Yu Yao, shaking her wrist, and muttered, "Damn it, this guy is too stubborn, my wrist is sore from chopping it!"
Yu Yao then remembered that Luo Mei's weapon was sharp.
But after all, it is a short weapon. It is suitable for assassination, but it is not enough to kill zombies.
"I'll get you a new weapon later."
Luo Mei quickly shook her head like a rattle: "No, no, no, I don't want the knife in your hand. You look so handsome with two knives!"
Luo Mei thought Yu Yao wanted to give her a knife, so she refused decisively.
Yu Yao laughed: "I won't give you my knife. I used to own an antique weapon shop. I have many weapons. Whatever you like, I'll find one for you."
Luo Mei's eyes lit up: "Broad-bladed knife! Do you have a broad-bladed knife? How many crystal cores? I'm heavily in debt now!"
“…???”
What the hell?
What pretty little girl wants to use a clumsy, heavy, wide-bladed knife?
Just as Yu Yao was feeling surprised and confused, a man who looked like a leader in the army was already walking towards them.
The man looked to be in his thirties, serious and upright. The first thing he did when he stood still was to give them a proper military salute.
Then he said seriously, "Comrades, thank you for your help. We are active-duty soldiers of the 28th Army of the Linjiang Military Region. We have been ordered to go into the city to search for survivors and go to the Lincheng Safety Zone. Excuse me, do you want to go to the safety zone together?"
Luo Mei's attention was instantly drawn away, and she became interested in the safe zone. "Safe zone? Where is it?"
The soldier replied, "There is a temporary safety zone at the Xijiang Hot Spring Resort in the north of the city. Once the Linjiang Base is completed, we can move to the base."
Luo Mei suddenly became excited, shaking Yu Yao's arm and saying anxiously: "Go, go, sister, let's go? My brother and the others will definitely go to the safe zone to find me!"
Before the end of the world, Luo Mei came to Lincheng alone to carry out a mission.
It was originally a very simple escort mission, but I didn't expect that the end of the world would happen just after the mission was completed.
It just so happened that the destination of her escort was Lincheng Second Hospital, so she was trapped in the hospital.
In the hospital, she rescued the target of the mission, but was pushed towards the zombies instead. She ended up escaping injured and that's when she met Yu Yao.
Although he saved his life.
However, due to changes in the magnetic field of the blue planet, the satellite phone could not be used, and Luo Mei lost contact with her teammates.
Her teammates knew her last move and would definitely come to the city to look for her.
Lincheng is too big, so the safe zone becomes the best place. As long as they meet in the safe zone, the chance of meeting will be much greater.
Yu Yao thought about it and decided that it was possible to go. She couldn’t just hang around outside all the time.
You still need a relatively safe place to rest and recover.
"Okay, let's go." Yu Yao first calmed the excited Luo Mei.
Then she took out the intercom Ji Yan gave her and said, "I'll tell Ji Yan and the others about the safe zone."
"Uh-huh."
Yu Yao looked at Brother Bing again, but before she could ask, Brother Bing said, "Our mission is to search and rescue the survivors. Please do as you please."
Yu Yao nodded, pressed the intercom and said, "Ji Yan, Ye Ziang, please reply if you receive it."
A reply soon came from the intercom, accompanied by the sound of electricity: "Received, Yu Yao, go ahead." It was Ji Yan's voice.
It seemed that the distance between them did not exceed the maximum communication distance of the walkie-talkie, but it was also on the edge.
"We encountered a search and rescue army. They came to the new area to look for survivors and take them to a safe area. It's the Xijiang Hot Spring Resort in the north of the city. Do you want to go?"
After a half-minute pause, Ji Yan's voice came again: "Where are you? We'll be there soon."
Yu Yao looked around and replied, "Zhuyuan Avenue, near Jinjiang Garden Community. You can see it when you get here."
"Okay, thank you, we'll be right there."
After she finished speaking and hung up the intercom, the leading soldier introduced himself: "My last name is Fang, Fang Yuan. Do you have your own car? Or do you want to ride in our military truck?"
"We have a car."
Fang Yuan nodded and said, "Okay, we will look for a place to stay overnight nearby. You just need to follow the team when we leave later."
Fang Yuan did not flatter them excessively just because of their strength. Instead, he said a few words and then left to get busy.
Luo Mei and Yu Yao returned to the bookstore and café to collect the supplies.
Looking at the noodles with gravy that had already clumped up, Yu Yao let out a long sigh.
Seeing this, Luo Mei comforted her, "It's okay, you can still eat."
Yu Yao hummed, and quickly finished two bowls of noodles with Luo Mei.
Don’t say it, even though it’s clumpy, it’s really delicious!
Yu Yao almost cried.
She couldn't help but think what if... what if she could really stay with Luo Mei in the future, with Luo Mei's cooking skills and her own supplies.
She couldn't even imagine how happy her future days would be!
......
The two of them packed up everything and went out, drove the car that was parked not far away, and parked it behind the military truck.
After settling in, Captain Fang sent someone to bring water and compressed biscuits.
Luo Mei waved her hand to refuse, took out a bag of potato chips from her travel bag, and shook it a few times at Captain Fang with a smile from a distance.
Upon seeing this, Captain Fang realized that they were not people short of supplies, so he stopped paying attention to them and turned to comfort the restless ordinary people in the military card.
Now that she had a channel to find teammates, Luo Mei felt much better.
No more forcing a smile and constantly comforting myself by saying “no bad news is good news”.
Yu Yao came to her and handed her a bottle of water.
Luo Mei took it with one hand and raised the bag of potato chips towards Yu Yao with the other hand, "Do you want to eat?"
"No, I don't like the taste of cucumbers."
"How delicious is cucumber?" Luo Mei looked puzzled.
“I didn’t say it wasn’t delicious.”
"You still don't like it?"
"Do I have to like it just because it tastes good? I'm pretty, do everyone have to like me?"
If so, why did she and the original owner suffer so much unnecessary pain?
Luo Mei was so shocked by these words that she paused for a long time before she started laughing.
"Sister, you are quite narcissistic!"
"It's okay." Yu Yao said, took out a bottle of gummy candies from her backpack and put one in her mouth.
The two of them ate snacks and chatted and laughed.
Yu Yao accidentally discovered that the red dots in a certain place on the map began to gather very quickly, so fast that she couldn't help but be curious.
Just as she was still wondering why there was a tide of zombies there, the walkie-talkie hanging around her waist suddenly rang.
Sizzle...sizzle...
"...Help...Help us..."
It seemed to be the voice of Tan He.
"...Don't...come...no...we..."
This time it was Ji Yan’s voice.
It was obvious that they were in danger.
Tan He wants Yu Yao to save them, but Ji Yan says not to go.
Holding the walkie-talkie, Yu Yao's heart skipped a beat and she quickly enlarged the detailed map of the zombie gathering point.
Sure enough, several blue dots were found running away frantically.
Tsk, trouble!
Who's going to save me? My arm is still numb and I can't even lift it up!
She subconsciously wanted to refuse.
But before he could say anything, he noticed a conspicuous treasure chest symbol on a blue dot, moving rapidly with their movement.
Wait!
There is a treasure!!!
It's this baby that is attracting zombies!!!
