Chapter 207: Return Journey, Overcoming the Drought
The team quickly assembled and set off. The most troublesome thing for Nanxing was the poisonous fog in the area of Death Bell Town.
However, this time, the survivors of the Tara tribe were willing to listen to her on their way back, so Nanxing chose to take a detour.
It will take a little longer, but you can avoid the poisonous fog.
After all, the poisonous fog was only in the area of Death Bell Town. The desert wasteland was so large that Nanxing could always find the way.
It’s a pity to give up the resources in the poisonous fog. Nanxing estimates that there are at least a dozen space props there.
With her current strength, even with the anti-toxin serum injection and armor, there is no way for her to escape from the poisonous fog.
Nanxing was not sure how many zombies were born from the poison, and what kind of dangers had accumulated.
Now that she has enough resources, it is better to be safe and use the Tara clan to continue accumulating resources.
Nanxing chose to take a detour and leave from another town called Bayonet Town. This town had long been deserted, just like Cactus Town.
Nanxing's convoy took a detour from Bayonet Town back to Cactus Town to pick up the wolf pack. It was not until 10:46 pm on the 120th day of the game that they returned to the ranch area.
There was no danger on the way.
Although the high temperature and locust plague have gradually disappeared and the nights are slowly returning, Nanxing and Sami are the only two real living people in her car; the rest are the living dead.
It's not as tempting for the zombies that are starting to become active again.
In the middle of the game, we received an announcement from the organizer that the drought was over, followed by acid rain and earthquakes, and the eternal night was gradually emerging.
It doesn't say that the high temperature is over, so the temperature will still not be low in the future.
But it shouldn't be too high, probably between 40-50 degrees Celsius.
It's quite miserable, with acid rain, earthquakes and sweltering heat.
Nanxing was very unhappy. She had always been afraid of heat but not cold, and she felt uncomfortable at the thought that the high temperature would continue.
She had a sour look on her face, and it lasted until she returned to the ranch. The ranch was still the same, with nothing left after the fire, and nothing worth remembering.
However, many people have visited the well that was dug before, and even when the temperature was 40 or 50 degrees, there would be mud around the well.
Nanxing is also amazing. After several disasters, there are still so many survivors. Human vitality is really strong.
Without game props and space, she would definitely not be able to live so comfortably.
You won’t die, but life will probably be very difficult.
After returning to the ranch area, Nanxing set up camp and prepared to start mining and cutting trees. She had a mine distribution map, automatic mining machines and automatic tree-cutting machines, which would greatly reduce her work.
Nanxing gave the mining task to Yusis, including copying the mineral distribution map.
She took Cecilis and the others to a forest seven hours away from the ranch to cut down trees.
Wood is still needed, whether as a shipbuilding material or as daily fuel for intermediate manufacturing stations.
By the way, I'll take a look at the forest to see if I can find some edible food, wild vegetables, fruits, etc.
After returning to the ranch area, Nanxing took the members to Crow Forest without even taking a rest.
She took away all the female members and the wolf pack, and left Sammy behind. She also left Sammy with enough weapons.
It is convenient for him to operate high-explosive grenades, poison gas bombs, etc. with great destructive power.
Sammy stayed behind to keep Jusis and the others in check. Although Sammy is young, he is very smart and courageous.
Of course, the possibility that both of them would cheat her cannot be ruled out.
If they dare to do this, Nanxing guarantees that they will regret being born into this world.
The vending machine cannot trade player information, but it does not say that the location coordinates and information of native residents cannot be traded.
Nanxing immediately drove to the Crow Forest with the wolf pack and Cecilis. There were a lot more zombies along the way, and some living people who looked very poor were walking on the road numbly and embarrassedly.
The extremely high temperature finally passed, and the locust plague disappeared and became small groups. When they came back at night, they would not come out to look for food and water.
Even though there are dangers of zombies outside.
Nanxing looked coldly at the scattered pedestrians on the road. Their eyes were strange, a little bit similar to those of Sersilis and the others.
It is not difficult to determine where this similarity comes from.
All of these people have eaten their own kind.
During the period of extremely high temperature, a large amount of food was spoiled and its shelf life was shortened a lot. This buff has not disappeared yet, but it is not as serious as before.
If the decay rate was 100 times faster before, there should be only 80 or 90 times left now.
It didn't matter to Nanxing. She had a static space, canned food with a long shelf life, and a space full of roasted chicken-flavored locusts.
Chicken flavor, crispy.
Maybe it's because the locusts have mutated, so they don't decay as quickly, about 10 times faster than normal.
The food in the Nanxing space is not consumed so quickly. Most of the time, the wolves eat locusts, with the heads, claws and tails removed, mixed with some canned fruits and vegetables.
This life is more comfortable than that of 99% of the survivors.
The survivors on the road looked at the majestic RV with envy, jealousy and greed in their eyes, but most of the survivors knew their own worth.
They can't even deal with locusts, let alone a big guy who owns an RV.
Nanxing looked at the survivors outside thoughtfully. These guys must be short of food and drinking water, right?
Even the water in the well that was dug before cannot be drunk directly. It is so turbid that no one knows how many zombies, locusts, white worms and even survivors have fallen into it.
There aren't many locusts outside now, so she can actually hire these survivors to work for her.
Mine and chop wood to collect food materials.
There are so many locusts in the space and I don’t know how to clean them up.
With Sersilis and the others around, she doesn't need to show up at all. She can just be the mastermind behind the scenes.
Nanxing curled the corners of his lips, this was possible.
If she fails, she will only lose a few men, but if she succeeds, her progress will be greatly advanced.
She quickly called Sersilis and gave her some instructions. Sersilis was very smart. Nanxing used beauty pills as bait to make them listen to her like dogs.
Nan Xing traded canned goods from a vending machine for the beauty pills. She spent 50 cans on one beauty pill!
The game organizer is very happy to exchange this kind of thing which is of no use to survival, but it does not affect its ability to trick Nanxing.
You have to know that it is difficult to find a can of rice outside now, and the survivors have been reduced to eating grass roots, tree bark and the corpses of their own kind.
They can forget about eating locusts. It’s good enough that they don’t become food for locusts during the locust plague.
