"Hey, is that really the leader of the base's superpower squad? Which squad leader is he leading?"
How do I register? Are there any requirements?
"Hey, can anyone sign up? Can individuals do it?"
...
A variety of questions arose one after another, and the entire consultation area was like a bustling market.
Just then, a loudspeaker blared, drowning out all the noise: "Quiet down! Quiet down!" "Quiet! Quiet down!"
Everyone stopped, and then the loudspeaker began to speak again: "Please don't rush, and don't shout. Ask one by one, and please be quiet."
Finally, the staff at the information desk stabilized the situation, and then someone from within the base came to answer everyone's questions.
"Oh, so you're going over there."
"Yeah, I heard there are a lot of zombies over there, and some mutated creatures too."
"Yes, no wonder it was all the superpowered teams that went this time. Not many people went there before, I heard it was very dangerous."
...
Some discussion spread among the people, and they eventually learned the destination.
In the end, the base selected 7 teams, plus about 10 ordinary people who volunteered, and that was the final group of people who went out to do the mission together.
The base also stated that this was not the only mission, so there was no need to compete for it; missions would be arranged successively, and every team would have a chance.
Upon hearing this news, the team of superpowered individuals stopped fighting over it.
The seven teams went back to prepare and gathered at the base gate at 6 a.m. the next morning to wait for their departure.
Yu Yanbin and his group were fortunate enough to be selected. After understanding all the things they needed to pay attention to, they returned to their accommodation and waited to gather the next morning.
"Do we need to bring food?" Li Xiao didn't know if the base would provide food for this mission. If not, she would need to bring her own.
"I don't think it's necessary. Wasn't this mission initiated by the base?" Shao Jie thought for a moment and replied.
“Yeah, I think it’s unnecessary too.” Meng Yang also felt that this was a task assigned by the base, and the food should be provided by the base.
“I didn’t ask just now, so I thought I probably didn’t need to bring it,” Yu Yanbin said. “How about this, Shao Jie, you go make the trip.”
"Okay, I'll go right away." Since I'm not sure, it's best to go and ask; it's just a matter of making one trip.
Shao Jie put on his raincoat and rain boots again and ran out like the wind. Not long after, the sound of climbing stairs could be heard, and soon, Shao Jie returned.
A few minutes later, Shao Jie's figure could be seen outside the door.
"I asked, and they said I don't need to bring it. Al-Qaeda missions don't require you to bring anything; if you take on a mission yourself, you prepare it yourself." Shao Jie finished speaking quickly, then gulped down a glass of water.
"Yes, just as I guessed." Yu Yanbin wasn't surprised at all; a slight smile appeared on his lips.
"Xiaoxiao, then we don't need to prepare food, just bring some necessary equipment."
"Alright. Then everyone should prepare an extra set of rain gear, just in case."
"Okay, let's get started."
Li Xiao gave everyone an extra set of rain gear from top to bottom, and also packed two packs of compressed biscuits and two bottles of water into each person's bag.
In addition, several boxes of anti-inflammatory medicine, several rolls of gauze, and alcohol were also packed into Qiu Fengyu's bag.
To avoid adding weight, I only brought a small amount, just enough for our own people.
"Xiaoxiao, why are you putting these in your bag?" Tian Tian thought it was unnecessary as she watched Li Xiao stuff these things into her bag.
"It might not work, and I hope it won't. It's just a precaution; you'd better not get hurt."
"Also, Tian Tian, remember, whatever you do, don't get hurt. Getting scratched by a zombie could lead to infection, so please remember that." Li Xiao gave this special instruction, just in case Tian Tian got carried away with the killing and forgot about this.
Tian Tian cherished her life and nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, I will. I don't want to be caught by zombies, I don't want to die."
"Yes, that's best. Also, you need to be careful of the people around you. This time you're with another team, so you don't need to stand out too much, but be careful not to get tricked by others."
Tian Tian wasn't stupid. After living through the apocalypse for so long, what hadn't she seen? She also understood Li Xiao's purpose in saying all this. She nodded earnestly and said, "Xiao Xiao, don't worry, I know. I won't make grand promises in front of outsiders. I'll do what others do. I know what I'm doing."
Seeing that Tian Tian truly knew, Li Xiao felt relieved.
Seeing that Li Xiao was so worried about Tian Tian, Qiu, the beautiful woman standing to the side, said, "Xiao Xiao, don't worry, I'll keep an eye on her."
Tian Tian immediately felt something was wrong and said with a mournful face, "Sister Fengyu, how could you do this? I'm not a child anymore, you don't need to do this."
Qiu Fengyu smiled slightly, "In my opinion, you're not a child. Be good."
Everyone laughed when he said that.
Tian Tian: "...", they're all bad people.
Li Xiao also took the opportunity to remind Qiu Fengyu, "You all need to be careful. Too many people are going there; who knows if there are any with ulterior motives among them."
Shao Jie tidied his backpack and said with a smile, "Then don't worry, we'll be careful once we're out. We're not pushovers."
Li Xiao laughed upon hearing this, "That's true," but then, as if remembering something, she asked seriously, "By the way, should we bring a gun?"
Everyone noticed her pause and change in expression, wondering what she was thinking. They were all on tenterhooks when they heard what Li Xiao said next.
Wooden warehouse?
Shao Jie and Xiao Peng all looked at Yu Yanbin and Cheng Shaolin, leaving the decision to them.
Cheng Shaolin stroked his chin, thought for a moment, and said, "Okay, each person only needs to carry one pistol. Don't carry too many, just in case we arouse suspicion and cause trouble."
Yu Yanbin nodded in agreement, "That's what I meant too. It's good to carry it for self-defense."
Li Xiao understood that her consciousness entered the space and searched for suitable weapons in the area where the wooden guns were stored.
They pulled out seven guns from the heads of the men and placed them on the table. Each person took one and a magazine, putting them in their bag.
These were seized from that team back then, so it's good to use them now.
"Don't use this in front of others unless absolutely necessary," Yu Yanbin cautioned. Even in the apocalypse, not everyone has this thing.
Shao Jie gently waved the hand holding the pistol, focusing intently on loading it.
This is only for emergency survival; no one would be foolish enough to use it as a weapon to kill zombies. No amount of bullets would be enough.
Nobody would do that.
Everyone packed their bags and checked their belongings.
Li Xiao didn't know what she needed to complete the task, so she could only prepare what she could think of.
After tidying up my things, I went to bed early.
I hope I can get to the meeting early tomorrow so I can be in good spirits and a good state to meet the new challenges.
