The captain of the eight-man team was named Lupin. He pulled the corners of his mouth into a wry smile and spread his hands: "I'm sorry, we don't know either."
The scene fell silent again.
It was the thin man who kindly answered their questions: "Well, we were just like you. We encountered this bus outdoors. It just appeared in front of us and asked us to get on."
"Did you hear the speakers outside?"
The four of them looked at each other and shook their heads. They were so busy running that they couldn't hear any other sounds.
I had just run out of the pile of zombies when I saw this bus and subconsciously ran towards it.
"Then listen to it now."
The thin man pointed to his ears, then put his fingers to his mouth, signaling everyone to be quiet.
The four of them calmed down and listened to the horn outside the window.
"Yuanlai Town - an absolutely safe zone in the end times."
"Those of you who are interested can get on the bus, which will take you to find the way to the town."
After hearing the content of the loudspeaker clearly, the oldest man among the four said suspiciously.
"So, what is this Yuanlai town we're heading to now? Is there really an absolutely safe zone in this apocalyptic world?"
Lupin gave another bitter smile. "To be honest, we didn't believe there was such a place just now. We just got on the bus with the idea of giving it a try. But after seeing how you guys just ran for your lives, we now kind of believe that such a place really exists."
After Lupin said this, the 12 people fell into a long silence.
After a while, the man among the four spoke again: "How about this, no matter where our destination is, since all 12 of us are now on the bus, why don't we introduce ourselves to each other?"
Lupin nodded: "Okay, then I'll go first. My name is Lupin, and these seven people next to me are my teammates. We are from the Panda Survivor Camp."
After he finished introducing himself, the man opposite immediately took over: "Hello, Brother Lu, my name is Lu Haoran, this is my younger brother Lu Haofei, the one next to me is my wife Qu Min, and the other one is my sister-in-law Han Shuang."
"The four of us are from the Pengfei survivor camp. This time we're going on a mission to Wawu Mountain. Unexpectedly..."
He shook his head, his face bitter.
I didn't expect that I almost lost my life on the mountain.
If this magical bus hadn't appeared, the four of them would probably have been stuck in the mountains today.
Lupin comforted him with a few words and gestured to the team members behind him to introduce themselves one by one.
After the team members finished introducing themselves, he returned to the topic.
"The Pengfei survivor camp seems to be not far from our camp. The camp manager over there..."
He frowned, obviously not having a good opinion of the camp chief of Pengfei survivor camp.
Lu Haoran and Lu Haofei looked at each other, both of them with grief and anger on their faces.
"Brother Lu, I know what you're going to say. That guy isn't a human being, but our parents are trapped in the camp. We can't leave even if we want to. Every time we go on a mission, two people must stay at home, otherwise we're not allowed to leave the camp."
Lupin frowned even more.
"Yeah, I've heard about it before. I have a good brother who was at Pengfei's survivor camp. He wanted to come over, but just as he had that idea, Pengfei and his men kidnapped his wife and children and took them to the zombie horde. It was only after my brother signed an unequal treaty that the family's lives were saved."
Thinking of his good brother, Lupin felt really sad.
He originally wanted to take his team to help his good brother, but Pengfei was stronger than him.
He has too many lackeys under his command, and there is no way he can guarantee that the three people can be taken away safely.
In the end, it was left unresolved.
In the past two years, every time he met his brother, his face looked more haggard.
He is obviously a young man in his thirties, but now he looks like a middle-aged man in his fifties.
He was made to do all the hard work, and almost all the crystal cores he obtained had to be handed over. He could only receive a small amount of food every day to support his family.
He felt very heartbroken, but unfortunately he had no ability to help.
Lu Haoran thought for a moment and asked hesitantly, "Brother Lu, is your brother called Deng Wenkang?"
The Pengfei survivor camp is so small, with less than a thousand people in total.
Lu Haoran and others knew their brothers, and Lupin was not surprised.
He sighed and nodded slowly: "Yeah."
Lu Haoran understood and sighed, "Brother Lu, to be honest, your brothers are having a really miserable time in the camp. Every day, they and their family can only get three biscuits to fill their stomachs and keep them alive. Sometimes, they don't even get any biscuits. Then they have to do all kinds of hard labor. We can't bear to watch them."
This was the first time Lupin heard about his brother's experience from someone else's mouth.
He had thought his brothers were having a miserable time in the Pengfei survivor camp, but he didn't expect it to be this miserable.
He angrily pounded the back of the seat in front of him.
"Damn it! I'm going to kill that thing!"
His eyes were frighteningly red and the veins on his forehead were bulging.
The team members behind him also started cursing angrily.
"Damn it, Brother Lu, your brothers are our brothers. Let's just fight that Pengfei!"
"Right! What a bastard! He's such a coward!"
Although Lupin was angry, he still had his sanity.
He gritted his teeth, suppressing the anger in his heart, and waved his hand: "Why rush? We need to think things over carefully. Besides, although our camp leader is a good person, he is timid. We will take our brothers back to the camp. If Pengfei comes to ask for them, the camp leader will definitely send them away without saying a word."
The camp chief of Panda Survivor Camp is considered the best person among the surrounding camps.
But his biggest problem is that he is timid and has a kind personality.
They dare not have any conflicts with other camps.
Pengfei is a bit of a jerk, but he doesn't care about that.
If they knew that Deng Wenkang and his family went to the Panda survivor camp, they would definitely come to ask for them.
The more Lupin thought about it, the more annoyed he became. He pulled his hair and spoke irritably.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this now. Let's see where this bus will take us."
The bus is still hanging around and shows no intention of taking them away.
Lupin estimated that the bus would have to be full of people before going to Yuanlai Town.
His estimate was correct.
The bus kept swaying around until all 30 people were on it.
It only beeped twice.
"Ding! Get ready to go! Back to town!"
