Chapter 415: New Team


0

As the vehicle moved forward, it turned off the engine and stopped on the side of the road.

In front of them, a two-person-high iron net appeared in sight, blocking the road ahead.

The car was unable to move forward for a moment.

The man lowered the window and frowned, "Let's go down and take a look. What's going on?"

The man sitting in the driver's seat nodded and got out of the car.

The iron net is made of 1 cm thick steel wires intertwined with each other. It is two people tall. It goes directly across the building on the roadside, wraps around the trees on the roadside, and continues to extend to the other side.

Moreover, the iron net looks very clean and has no rust, as if it had just been installed.

After the driver finished looking, he trotted back and said, "Boss, it looks like there is a base here. The iron nets are very new and have no rust. They cross the main road and go over there."

Obviously, only a base would use this thing to surround itself, to show the scope of its territory.

The same was true for their team's previous base on the coastal area.

The area inside the circle is their base, and it is very safe inside the iron net.

They may have accidentally driven into the range of someone else's base.

As the leader of the same base, he naturally knew that if they went any further, it would arouse the vigilance of those in the other base, and might even lead to war.

They can't afford such trouble now.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Go around."

The driver nodded, got in the car, restarted it, and started communicating with the car behind using the walkie-talkie.

The car turned around and drove away.

The road today is quite wide except for some scrapped cars occasionally blocking the two ends.

There is no need to worry about not being able to turn around.

The convoy was huge, with several buses lined up in a long queue.

Then he swayed along the roadside in the other direction.

But after they drove for an hour, the driver was dumbfounded when he saw the iron net appear again in front of him.

Whose base is this? It’s so big? They have been driving for a long time and are still within the range of someone else’s base.

That's an exaggeration, bro.

The driver turned around and looked at the boss's face in silence.

And in his heart, Wang Baoqi couldn't help but take a deep breath and suppress his anger.

It's amazing.

What kind of base is this? He raised his hand and contacted the convoy behind him, saying, "Send a team to check out what's going on. Be sure to find out the news."

"Everyone else, find a hidden shelter and stay where you are."

After receiving the order, the rear convoy left a squad soon, and the car stopped by the roadside.

The terrain here is open, and no matter whether zombies or other survivors appear in front, behind, or around, they can be discovered in time.

Of course, they will also be exposed to other people's targets accordingly.

So, the car stopped on the side of the road, and the people in the car followed it into the abandoned community on the side of the road.

The community is particularly desolate. I don't know if it's because the recent temperature has risen and there's plenty of moisture, but the cement road in the community is covered with a lot of weeds, and the road surface looks like moist soil.

The large iron gate of the community was blocked in a haphazard manner and was covered with rust.

The team poured into the long-abandoned community and looked around vigilantly.

But the community was very quiet, and there were no signs of zombie activity on the ground.

Apart from the extreme silence, nothing seemed unusual.

But Wang Baoqi and others will not let down their guard because of this.

Everyone found an empty spot and sat down, some of them started a fire and cooked in an orderly manner.

After a while, everyone took out a stainless steel basin from their bodies and drank sweet potato and corn porridge.

He was chewing a big, hard steamed bun in his hand.

But these things are enough to fill the big guy's stomach.

The driver, Yang Wei, walked up to Wang Baoqi and whispered, "Boss, how long are we going to go? This guy has been driving for five hours straight."

The goal has not yet been reached.

Of course, he didn't say the second half of the sentence, but everyone thought so.

Their car had been modified, and they encountered zombie attacks on the road, which took a lot of time, energy and strength to get to this location.

I don’t know how long it will take.

Wang Baoqi was holding a bowl of porridge and eating a white steamed bun. Hearing this, he couldn't help but sigh.

"We can only take it one step at a time. We need to find a place without earthquakes or natural disasters, but also a large place where everyone can grow crops."

They were slow all the way, and although they drove for five hours, they didn't go very far at all. At most, they probably only traveled about 100 to 200 miles.

Although it is far away from the coastal areas, it should still be within the earthquake zone.

The vibrations must have been felt here, too.

Therefore, the convoy needs to continue to move forward, the farther the better, to avoid the same problem from occurring again. If they move again, the team's losses will be very high.

After all, some time, energy and materials are consumed in building bases. After re-stationing, the construction of these bases will be invested again.

The same is true for the materials consumed, of course, it may be even higher.

Yang Wei paused, then nodded.

Indeed, he knew what the boss was thinking, but there was no other way at the moment.

However, when he looked at the iron net not far away, he couldn't help but envy these people.

Unlike them, I don’t have a stable place to live now.

The porridge in his hand was a little hot, so Yang Wei took a big sip. His throat was so hot that he couldn't speak.

Seeing this, Wang Baoqi couldn't help but laugh, "Drink slowly, kid. No one is going to snatch the drink from you."

Yang Wei patted his chest, finally swallowed it, and said: "Uncle, I was thinking about something just now and didn't notice it."

"It's okay. I drank it."

Wang Baoqi chuckled, "What are you thinking about?"

Yang Wei paused, and said a little embarrassedly: "I'm just thinking about when we can have a base like this one, so that everyone can settle down quickly."

"Although there aren't many of us, we still feel uneasy wandering around like this."

This is true. The feeling of having no place to live is definitely unsettling.

How could Wang Baoqi not know this?

But what can we do?

Everyone fell silent, eating their food, and no one said anything.

Everyone was very full, and the stainless steel bowl was very easy to clean. The steamed buns could be cleaned very quickly after rubbing them in the bowl.

After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, they rested for a long time, and the team that had gone out finally returned.

However, only one person came back.

He was breathing heavily and jogging all the way.

But judging from his pace, he had obviously been running for a long time. (End of this chapter)
