Chapter 109: Finding a New Location
January 1, 2092.
Gu Chao, the new base commander of the J City base, delivered a city-wide speech.
As usual, there are four areas, A, B, C, and D. Each area has a screen to play the speech video synchronously.
In his speech, Gu Chao first announced that the J City Base was officially renamed Chaoyang Base, and then announced the news of personnel appointments: Zhou Zixi was appointed deputy base director, in charge of administration; Cheng Ming was appointed director of the Personnel Department and concurrently director of the Logistics Department, in charge of personnel selection and allocation, as well as material distribution; Lu Shaoyang was appointed director of the Armed Forces Department, in charge of base guards and external operations.
Next are some regulations and policies that have been piloted for some time.
Finally, we celebrated everyone’s successful survival of the zombie apocalypse and the arrival of a new life.
Countless survivors gathered in front of the screen and watched with tears in their eyes. Although Gu Chao was not suitable for public speaking, his cold face and flat tone of voice could easily make people drowsy, but his performance in the defending battle was so impressive, and the final storm was widely praised, so that everyone regarded him as an idol. With the addition of automatic filters, this shortcoming became an advantage: how handsome and cool, this is the style of a big boss!
Since then, he has had countless admirers.
On the contrary, Lu Ming, who made great contributions in the defense battle, was not assigned any position, and they never mentioned her deeds. After all, their base is unstable and the personnel are complicated, and Lu Ming has many secrets. It is really not a good time to make them public.
Everyone at the base only knew that there was a mysterious man wearing a helmet and riding a motorcycle, who single-handedly eliminated one-fifth of the zombies in the zombie tide.
As for "his" whereabouts, no one can tell for sure, but from then on there was a legend about a man called "Knight".
She herself did not want to be famous. After all, she had too much to do. She had to train, occasionally disguise herself and go to the base hospital to treat seriously injured survivors, discuss travel plans with them, and would even have to go out in a few days. She had no time to take on any important position.
In the blink of an eye, a week passed and all the new personnel and new work were on track. After Lu Ming left a lot of supplies to the base, the group was finally ready to set off.
There were twelve people in total traveling, traveling light but with very stylish equipment, all of them were modified off-road vehicles. The one in the lead was an uncommon George Patton, which looked like a tank after the modification.
When Lu Ming was released for the first time not far from the base, everyone in the team was eager to take the wheel.
Even Cheng Ming lost his composure and wanted to exchange positions with Gu Chao. He led the team out while Gu Chao stayed behind to take charge.
Of course, I was ruthlessly rejected in the end. I could only sigh at the warehouse full of wheat ears, thinking about how to quietly shell so many fresh grains, and secretly thinking that when they come back, I must expose all the good things someone has done.
However, surprisingly, the man in black, Qin Ye, somehow heard that they were going out and wanted to walk with them for a while.
Gu Chao was reluctant at first, but Qin Ye said that he and another female team member would drive alone and take care of their own food and accommodation. After they only traveled a few hundred kilometers together, Gu Chao agreed because of his great help.

On January 9, the convoy officially set off.
Although it is January, the weather is still hot. Driving on the road under the scorching sun all day long, the car feels like a steamer and is very uncomfortable.
Fortunately, they had plenty of oil (after all, Luming could buy it with gold coins), so the air conditioner was always on, so it wasn't particularly difficult to endure.
Cheng Ming, Zhang Rui, Yan Wei, and Yan Song stayed in the base. Qin Mu and his wife did not follow them out. Without the living radar, they had to rely mainly on Li Hangyuan's drone to explore the way. They could only continue to move forward after he was sure that there was no large-scale zombie tide ahead, so the speed was a bit slow.
Lu Ming was responsible for clearing the congested vehicles on the highway and creating a one-way street, which would save a lot of time when their large group passed behind them.
So Lu Ming and Li Hangyuan were the most tired along the way, and the others were almost bored to death.
On the first day, they traveled for five hours in the morning and four hours in the afternoon, and arrived at a nearby town before dark.
If we keep walking at this speed for another two days, we will be back in City N, which is much faster than the previous migration.
Since Lu Ming’s inventory was running low, they planned to stop when they came across a city. The others waited outside the city, while Gu Chao and Lu Ming quickly entered the city to collect supplies.
If time doesn't permit, let's go into the city together and rest for a night.
They parked their car under an office building in the center of the town, cleared out the zombies and settled down there.
Maybe it was because the zombie wave had just passed, but they saw very few zombies along the way that day. However, there were a lot of abandoned vehicles, collapsed buildings, and various garbage. The town was empty like a dead city. There were no survivors, not even a few zombies.
Lu Ming and Gu Chao took advantage of the time when the others were resting to come out and search around, finding some seeds, packaged grains and grain products, clothing, and medical supplies.
Unfortunately, there is only one large supermarket in the town, and it has been emptied.
After returning to the temporary resting point, Lu Ming crawled into his tent and entered the space.
After the space was upgraded, the original six pieces of land became thirty-six pieces, and with the addition of the crystal stone from the fifth-level space zombie, there are now more than seventy pieces of land in total. Not only has the number increased, but the area has also become much larger.
These more than 70 plots of land can harvest three crops of grain and fruit, several crops of vegetables, plus a lot of chickens, ducks, fish and shrimps every ten days, with a very high yield.
Ever since Lu Ming told them that the space could be used for planting and breeding, the biggest benefit was that there was finally someone to help slaughter the chickens and ducks flying all over the space!
So before they could even have time to laugh, Lu Ming stuffed a chicken in one hand and a knife in the other, treating them like emotionless poultry slaughtering machines, and killed hundreds of them by pressing their heads. They smelled like chicken shit for several days in a row.
Tsk, life is so hard, they never want to eat chicken again.
However, on the day the base was renamed, Lu Ming personally prepared a large table full of dishes to celebrate the successful completion of this plot point.
The crowd, who had made up their minds, smelled the unique aroma and tasted it curiously.
Holy crap! This is fucking delicious!
It tastes completely different from frozen meat!
I felt so comfortable after eating it, as if all the hidden injuries from long ago were healed!
So, not only did they eat up all the dishes, they even wanted to rush into the villa where Lu Shaoyang, Zhou Zixi and others lived and snatch back all the meat that had been given away.
Of course, it's just a thought. If I really go there, I'll probably be beaten in the head by Lu Ming.
When she was at level four, they could still fight her to a draw in sparring. Now that she had reached level five, they finally knew what it felt like to be pinned to the ground and rubbed.
It's a really novel experience.
But it's all tears if I say too much.
So they had no choice but to shout: Are there any chickens or ducks left? Kill them!
