Chapter 169 Kick Over This Bowl of Dog Food
Since the coastal areas were gradually submerged, survivors like Zhao Mingyuan's family are a minority. Most people are carrying their luggage, walking alone, arduously, and desperately along the road. Many people did not even notice that the toll station at the fork in the road had changed. They passed by the Chaoyang Base and headed towards an unknown distance.
The guards on the roadside felt a little sorry for these people, but the situation at their base was not optimistic and they had no way to take in a large number of survivors, so they could only watch them go away indifferently.
Even so, nearly 5,000 survivors have poured into the Chaoyang base in the past two months, and the total population has now exceeded 150,000.
What? You said it's normal for people to come and go?
No, all the survivors who came to Chaoyang Base stayed here for a maximum of three days and then could not wait to apply for the base's permanent resident card.
No one has ever left on their own accord.
After all, those who leave will never be allowed to join the base again in their lifetime, and the conditions in this base are so good, how could anyone want to leave?
I'm afraid he has suffered beatings from zombies and other bandit bases.
As August approaches, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, with temperatures of 40 degrees Celsius becoming commonplace. People walking on the streets are walking even faster than during the snowy season.
Because it's hot_(:з」∠)_
In this kind of weather, sitting in the carriage of a military truck to clear out zombies is like being in a steamer. It steams every time you go out and every time you come back. You can't help but wonder if there is smoke coming out of your head.
But they dared not slack off, because there was only more than a month left before the marine life approached the base, and only three months before the bomb was dropped on the capital.
"Yesterday, news came out of the capital, ordering all official bases to prepare for war immediately, be on guard against monster waves, and accept fleeing survivors."
"They can't hide it any longer. In just two months, the three major official bases along the coast have fallen one by one. Those marine creatures are advancing like a relentless force. Currently, no base can stop them. Some have even moved north. I estimate that in two months, the order for all bases to migrate north will be issued."
That way, they can bomb the south when the time comes.
As for those civilian bases that don’t have radio stations, I’m sorry, I don’t know.
"How are the new survivors?"
"Most of them have decent physiques, and one-fifth have psychics, though their levels aren't very high. As of last Friday, a total of 4,000 people had signed up for the guards, of which 405 were psychics, all of whom were accepted into the psychic team. Among the ordinary people, 752 qualified, 2,581 were in reserve, and the rest were candidates who were not considered for the time being."
"How are the people with abilities who have awakened later?"
"Very good, no one has any abnormalities. Some people's upgrade speed is even faster than those who awakened naturally. All members who have trained for more than a month are at least at the second level, and there are no first level ones."
"Okay, let's keep training. Besides leveling up, don't fall behind in actual combat. How's the training going with the supernatural power coordination?"
"The five combinations we have currently are quite effective, and are twice as powerful as the previous individual ones. I just don't know which one will be more lethal against a wave of monsters, so the number of these combinations is about the same."
"Well, let's balance the numbers first, and then adjust when we have new information."
"Also, starting next week, you can set up traps inside the base. But be careful to place the signs properly so that survivors don't accidentally trigger them."
"yes."
After the meeting, Gu Chao saw that it was almost time, so he walked towards the entrance of the base.
As they walked along, the guards and staff they met along the way stopped respectfully and called out, "Hello, Base Commander!" Then they continued walking forward, looking at the new survivors next to them in surprise.
Someone asked the others, "Hey buddy, was that the one who just passed by our base commander?"
"yes."
"Is it fake?"
"What's wrong?"
"Why is the base commander going out alone? Shouldn't these leaders travel with three layers of guards inside and outside? At the very least, there should be someone to pick them up, right? I see he's going to walk out of the base alone."
"Hey, are you new here? Our base commander is the best in the whole base," he gave a thumbs-up. "Who can hurt him? Besides, he was supposed to be picking someone up at the gate, so why would he need someone to pick him up? Besides, our base is so good, who would be so desperate as to assassinate the base commander? You're asking for your life. Every spit from you would drown you."
"Huh? Who was it that the base commander personally went to greet? A national leader?"
"Haha. He's not a national leader, but he's more important than one. Just stand here and watch. You should be able to see him soon."
"Okay, thanks."
"fine."
The two separated, and the new survivor suddenly felt something was wrong. Eh? Did everyone in this base know the base commander so well?
It seems that the leadership is very people-friendly.
The person who walked away played with the small fireball in his hand and walked towards another group of unfamiliar survivors.
The new survivor quietly hid in the shadows on the side of the road and looked at the gate. He saw the base commander climb up the wall and waited for more than 20 minutes under the scorching sun. He was almost dried up in the shade of the trees below. The base commander then hurried down and stood at the door.
Soon, a small door opened and a woman wearing sunglasses walked in. Seeing the base commander, she quickened her pace and ran towards him. Then the base commander reached out to catch the person who rushed towards him and kissed her. The two walked back hand in hand while talking and laughing.
New survivor: "..."
I waited here for so long, and all I got was a bowl of hot dog food?!
grass!
It's not only sour, but also bitter, astringent, spicy, purple, green, black...
The two people on the other side are so sweet.
"What do you want to eat today?" Gu Chao asked the little girl beside him.
The little girl pouted: "It's so hot, I don't want to eat anything."
"The cafeteria made cold noodles today, would you like to try some?"
"Okay then." She replied reluctantly, then looked at the tall man again, hesitant to speak.
"What do you want to say?"
"A Chao, don't come to pick me up anymore. The sun is too strong."
The man felt warm inside and said, "It's okay, I'm not hot."
"That's not what I meant..."
Man:? What does that mean?
She thought for a moment, then raised their clasped hands, pointed at her own small hand, and asked, "Look, do you know what this is?"
"Your hand?"
"No. This is Snow White."
Then he pointed to the big hand next to him and asked, "Then do you know what this is?"
Mysterious.
The man replied, "Dwarf?"
The little girl shook her head, pointed at the big hand, and said seriously: "This is a piece of coal."
After saying that, he quickly pulled his hand away and ran away.
“Hahahahahahaha.”
man:"……"
Oh my goodness, so she didn't let him wait for her because she thought he had turned darker?!
The man was both angry and amused, then pretended to be angry and shouted, "Stop!" and ran after him.
The little girl laughed and screamed, running faster.
The survivor who fell far behind: "..."
Is he out of his mind?
Why do you have to follow these two people?
Help! He's about to die from being stuffed...
