Xiao Lin looked at the corpses on the 5th floor with a grim expression, then continued to go upstairs, searching for survivors floor by floor. Any members of the base were to be killed without exception, and all survivors followed Xiao Lin.
When Xiao Lin arrived on the 10th floor, he opened the door.
The stench that hit him made Xiao Lin stop in his tracks. He discovered the imprisoned women. The whole room was filled with a nauseating, fishy smell. The women were imprisoned in the room, completely naked, with only a hard, dry blanket for warmth. They looked at Xiao Lin with despair on their faces, and each of them showed a look of terror. There were even naked women frozen solid in the room.
It wasn't until someone told them "you're saved" that the women moved their numb bodies, looked at each other in disbelief.
Xiao Lin instructed the survivors to find some clothes for the women to wear, while he continued searching upwards.
However, it seemed that there was no one upstairs anymore, but outside the window on the 12th floor, Xiao Lin discovered traces of someone climbing down a rope.
Judging from the looks of it, they must have already fled when Xiao Lin started the massacre, because the windowsill was already frozen solid.
Xiao Lin then used his mental search and indeed found traces of a group of people, but they had already driven a long way away.
"There are still vehicles and weapons in the apocalypse. This base is unusual." Xiao Lin stroked his chin and said in a deep voice.
Xiao Lin estimated that there weren't many supplies here, and it probably wasn't their stronghold yet, so he decided to let them cause trouble for a while longer.
So Xiao Lin stopped searching, since the building only had 12 floors. He went downstairs to wait for the survivors to be rescued.
He asked one of the thin boys, "What's your name? Have all the people inside come out?"
The boy replied, "My name is Wang Zheng, and everyone inside is down here."
Xiao Lin nodded in agreement, then asked, "There are still some supplies in this building. If you want to stay here, you can stay. If you don't want to stay and plan to go out and make your own way, that's fine too. I am the base chief of the official base, which is called Tianchi Base. You can come with me to the base, but each person has to pay 10 jin of grain to enter my base. However, considering that you don't have any right now, those who want to come with me can be specially approved to owe 10 jin of grain. You can work at the base later to pay off the debt. I'll give you some time to think about it."
Then, Xiao Lin dialed a satellite phone, and Hai Dong answered. "Xiao Dong, take some men and drive a truck to my location. I will launch a signal flare in the sky, and you can come to me in that direction."
Xiao Lin fired a signal flare every 10 minutes in case Hai Dong and his group couldn't find him.
During the waiting period, all the survivors chose to go with Xiao Lin. Xiao Lin told them to go upstairs and search for usable supplies, while he waited for them downstairs.
Actually, there are still quite a few usable supplies upstairs, such as the clothes of so many dead people, and the weapons they had.
After a while, Hai Dong arrived with a group of about 10 people. Xiao Lin told them to go upstairs to search for usable supplies, and then led the people upstairs downstairs.
It was already past 5 a.m. When Xiao Lin and his group returned to the base, many people had already gotten up. In the post-apocalyptic world, because there were no electronic devices and no light at night, everyone had developed the habit of going to bed early, and some people who had slept enough had already gotten up.
At this point, the people inside the base would cast curious glances at these survivors, but they were no longer surprised.
After all, there are people everywhere now dressed in rags and with terrified expressions.
