By the time Wang Bin and his two companions returned to their camp, it was already dusk and dawn was approaching.
Li Dazhu breathed a sigh of relief upon learning that his sister had been safely delivered. To him, his sister was everything. As long as she was safe, he felt it would have been worth it even if he had sacrificed himself in this operation.
"There are still two hours until the meeting time, let's take a break." Wang Bin said, seeing that there were still two hours to rest, and hurriedly told everyone to rest.
"I'm afraid everyone will oversleep, so I think I'll stay and keep watch," Li Dazhu said with a smile.
"No need, I have my phone, I can just set an alarm. Besides, you haven't slept all night, have you? Get a good night's sleep so you'll have the energy to start the battle later!"
Wang Bin patted Li Dazhu on the shoulder with a smile. Li Dazhu's eyes were also bloodshot; he hadn't slept all night, which showed that he really cared about his sister. And that's the kind of loyal and affectionate person Wang Bin needed.
"Um!"
Although Li Dazhu was surprised that Wang Bin had a cell phone with power, he had seen so many amazing things about Wang Bin in the past few days that he had become somewhat numb to it.
At 7:30, the alarm clock rang, and everyone hurriedly got up, washed up, and then strode outside.
As they left, several people also came out of the surrounding buildings. Everyone nodded to each other as a greeting, because they knew that they would all be comrades-in-arms from now on.
Going to the north of the city is no joke; there are over a million zombies there. If you get surrounded by zombies in the north, it's basically a death sentence. Now, it's important to build good relationships with your comrades so that they can help you out when something happens.
When Wang Bin and his three companions arrived at the meeting place, there were already more than twenty people waiting there.
Wang Bin could tell that everyone looked a little nervous.
They knew that many people would die in this operation, and that they might be the ones to die, or that the entire army might be wiped out.
Wang Bin could also see that Li Dazhu looked a little nervous. He really wanted to offer him a pack of cigarettes to calm him down, but since there were other people around, he had to hold back.
"I am determined to build my own team!"
At this moment, Wang Bin truly understood the power of numbers. To avoid being controlled by others, he needed to become strong and have a sufficiently powerful team. Even though he longed for a strong team, he knew this couldn't be rushed; he needed to find people with good character. Recruiting unsavory individuals would not only affect team unity but could also lead to betrayal at the most crucial moment.
Around eight o'clock, all fifty volunteers had arrived, and a group of people walked over from a distance. The leader was the big man who had stood next to Master Jin yesterday. His name was Li Guanghui. Before the apocalypse, he was Master Jin's security captain. Now, he was one of Master Jin's most trusted men.
Wang Bin quickly counted the number of people; there were 25 in total, and each of them was armed.
There were only four of them, four against twenty-five, which was quite a challenge, but he was willing to give it a try.
Captain Li gave a long speech of encouragement, and after assigning tasks, they set off. The city had long since run out of fuel, and without vehicles, everyone had to walk. However, they had prepared ten carts in advance to transport supplies, and also provided everyone with sticks and knives to deal with the zombies.
"That's quite a decent job!"
Seeing the other party put on such a show by taking out ten carts, Wang Bin secretly muttered a curse to himself.
Captain Li had already planned the route and quickly headed north of the city. There were many zombies along the way, but with the combined efforts of more than seventy people, there was no danger.
Soon the group arrived at the north of the city, where there were significantly more zombies than before.
Upon arriving at this place, no one dared to easily kill the zombies. They would only take action as a last resort, and even then, no one dared to fire a gun, fearing that the noise would attract the zombies.
And so the group cautiously made their way forward, taking more than two hours to advance just two streets.
"Captain Li, how much further is it?" a volunteer couldn't help but ask.
"Almost there, just one more street away. Everyone, give it your all, and when we get back we'll be able to eat white rice and drink wine!" Captain Li was good at inspiring people, knowing that at this moment only benefits could motivate them.
As expected, the volunteers were thrilled to hear that there was white rice and wine, and they gripped their weapons tightly, ready to go out and fight the zombies.
"Alright, let's go!"
Seeing that everyone had rested enough, Captain Li gave the order to set off again.
Led by Captain Li, the group set off again. However, as they passed through a small alley, they discovered that the alley was filled with zombies. To make matters worse, one of the volunteers tripped and fell, making a loud noise.
Hearing the noise, the zombies in the alley all looked over. When they saw that there were living people, they excitedly howled and charged towards the group.
"idiot!"
Captain Li was furious. As soon as he saw the person who made the noise trying to get up, he ran over and kicked the person in the direction of the zombie.
"Ah, help!"
The man was kicked down by Captain Li, and screamed in fright before being surrounded by zombies. Within a minute, the zombies had devoured all the flesh and blood on his body.
While the zombies were devouring the man, everyone quickly ran away.
Seeing their companion devoured in no time, everyone broke out in a cold sweat.
Led by Captain Li, the group ran into a house. There were also zombies inside, but not many, and they were quickly wiped out by the group working together.
"Are you accusing me of being cruel? Yes, I am cruel. Anyone who dares to ruin my plans will die. Everyone, give it your all and don't make any mistakes. If anyone makes a mistake, they'll suffer the same fate as him!"
After clearing out the zombies, Captain Li said sternly to everyone.
Upon hearing this, everyone lowered their heads, not daring to meet his gaze.
"Great! Everyone, keep pushing forward, we'll be there in another 500 meters!"
After the zombies that had been causing a disturbance quieted down, Captain Li led his men forward again.
While they were in the room, Wang Bin secretly took out a pistol from the system space and gave one to each person, along with some bullets.
As for the rifle, it was too bulky, and taking it out would be immediately noticed, which would undoubtedly be suicidal. Guan Xiaoyue and the other two calmly took the pistol and hid it in their pockets. Guan Xiaoyue also had the dagger that had been with her for many years.
This dagger wasn't the best, but it was the one she was most comfortable using. She was very sad when Wang Bin took it away, but thankfully it was soon returned to her.
"That used to be the city's largest underground casino!"
Upon seeing the place they were heading to, Li Dazhu immediately recognized it and quickly reminded Wang Bin and the other two.
"An underground casino?" Upon hearing that it was an underground casino, Wang Bin's eyes suddenly lit up.
