Chen Hu sat in his luxurious tent, looking at his elderly mother who was terminally ill.
After months of fleeing, Chen Hu, who had been fat and chubby, had become several sizes thinner. He frowned as he looked at Qu Shiheng, who was missing an ear.
When will the Xiangcheng base be destroyed? How much longer must we wait?
He could wait, but his elderly mother, who was on her deathbed, could not.
Chen Hu asked again:
"Is there any other way to get our hands on the [Energy Droplets] from the Xiangcheng base? Can you get some?"
Qu Shiheng shook his head.
"Our last trip to the Xiangcheng base was to discuss cooperation on supplies, but..."
He didn't finish his sentence because the thought of this matter made Qu Shiheng, who could have deleted the unnecessary parts, feel extremely angry.
Before the negotiations to purchase supplies from the Xiangcheng base at a low price could even begin, they were wiped out by Hua Mi right there in Xiangcheng.
Furthermore, Qu Shiheng had one of his ears cut off by that vile woman.
In this situation, there's no time to escape, so how can we even talk about cooperation with the Xiangcheng base?
Chen Hu's expression grew increasingly grim.
He raised his hand and rubbed his face, frowning as he asked,
"Is it really true that not even a single [Energy Drop] can be found? Did those men from Xiangcheng have any?"
His mother's illness had been dragging on for a long time, and it was going to get worse before the end of the world.
The doctor had also subtly reminded him that he should start preparing for his mother's funeral.
The reason he was able to drag his mother along, fleeing to various places under such circumstances, was entirely because of the [energy droplets] that were prolonging her life.
But now the Xiangcheng base is surrounded by zombies, and the [Energy Drops] are gone.
What's even more infuriating is that the Xiangcheng base issues shopping cards? You can't buy things with money without using the shopping cards.
The value system was thus quietly transformed by Hua Mi.
Xiangcheng is facing an uncertain future, so how are other cities supposed to survive?
Qu Shiheng glanced at the old lady lying on the bed, barely breathing.
It wasn't that he felt particularly sorry for the old woman, but rather that he didn't want to ruin his cooperative relationship with Chen Hu.
"The Xiangcheng base will be destroyed sooner or later. If we can't wait, we can think of other ways."
Searching for some "energy droplets" on the men from Xiangcheng is just one method.
Alternatively, before the zombies completely surround the Xiangcheng base, they could quickly enter the base and purchase some more [Energy Drops].
Chen Hu seriously considered the feasibility of Qu Shiheng's words.
Finally, he gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with intense hatred.
"Then let's just go all the way and hasten the demise of Xiangcheng."
Qu Shiheng is right. If the Xiangcheng base is destroyed in the future, the supplies will belong to them.
Chen Hu found this possibility very tempting.
Currently, they do not know where the [Energy Drops] come from, but this kind of thing can only be bought at the Xiangcheng base.
It must have been produced in a laboratory at the Xiangcheng base.
Chen Hu said to Qu Shiheng,
"Sending someone to fly directly into Xiangcheng to buy [Energy Drops] is an option, but it's too slow, and the delivery time is too long."
Moreover, they still find ways to spend money to buy [Energy Drops] from others.
What could be better than having the [Energy Drops] in your own hands?
As long as Chen Hu and Qu Shiheng can control the [Energy Drop], what can't they have?
At that time, Chen Hu will be able to extend his mother's life as long as he wants, and he himself may also achieve longevity.
Qu Shiheng thought for a moment and asked,
"Boss, what are you planning to do?"
"Boss" is Chen Hu's nickname. He may not actually be Qu Shiheng's boss, but everyone calls him that.
Chen Hu said fiercely,
"The reason I have become like this, like a stray dog, is entirely thanks to Gong Yi of Xiangcheng."
"And Gong Yi's woman, she killed my brother, and I've always remembered that grudge."
"First, send people to search those men from Xiangcheng and see if they have any [Energy Droplets] on them."
"I'll send another team to Xiangcheng to lure some zombies. With this two-pronged approach, the Xiangcheng base will be destroyed even faster."
After a pause, Chen Hu continued:
"After the Xiangcheng base is destroyed, we'll find a way to get into it and get the recipe for the [Energy Drop].
To this day, Chen Hu and Qu Shiheng both believe that the reason why the "Energy Drops" can be made is because of the energy formula.
Qu Shiheng nodded in agreement without hesitation, and the two went their separate ways.
Chen Hu deployed almost all of his remaining forces to several cities in the north, blasting out the zombies that were still frozen in the unmelted ice and leading them towards the Xiangcheng base.
The intention was to hasten the demise of the Xiangcheng base.
Qu Shiheng then called Hu Yanxiang over.
He wanted Hu Yanxiang to gather all the Xiangcheng survivors who had come to E City.
Qu Shiheng will give a large amount of supplies to anyone who can contribute all of their [Energy Drops].
That's what they say, but whether they'll actually do it in the end, whether they'll actually provide the supplies, nobody knows.
Hu Yanxiang turned around and relayed Qu Shiheng's words to the more than 1,000 workers on the construction site.
