"I plan to set off alone. Level 3 ability users are still too fragile. I don't even plan to bring Alice with me!"
In case of danger, I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you all and you might get hurt!
Knowing what Ning Chuxia might ask for, Huang Zhao said decisively.
"Can't you really take me with you? I've already broken through to level three, I won't be a burden!"
"no!"
"Is it really that dangerous? Senior brother, aren't you being overly cautious?"
Do you think that after the apocalypse, the only danger comes from zombies?
Don't be fooled by the fact that we've swarmed with zombies; aside from our numerical advantage, they pose almost no threat.
But it's not just zombies that get stronger after the apocalypse. Have you ever seen the King Kong outside the city? In the entire Dawn City, apart from me and the city lord, no one can stand against it!
And do you think there are many or few creatures like King Kong outside? If you encounter a mutated beast hostile to humans, you'll have a hard time even escaping!
Hearing Huang Zhao's unyielding tone, Ning Chuxia could only swallow her words about going back together, feeling somewhat aggrieved.
"But... I'm also very worried about my parents..."
Alan has also suffered such serious injuries... I'm so scared...
"After breaking through to level four, even if I can't beat someone in a dangerous situation, I'm still confident I can escape."
Huang Zhao softened his tone and comforted Ning Chuxia.
“I understand your concerns, but I can’t joke with your lives.”
Once I arrive in Guangzhou, I will immediately check on the safety of my uncle and aunt.
If...if they are still alive, I will bring them safely back to Dawn City.
At this point, Huang Zhao didn't actually have much hope that his parents were still safe.
"Okay, thank you, senior..."
"Don't worry too much, Sister Chuxia, you still have us! Alice will be with you!"
Huang Zhao quickly scanned the information on the screen, then got up and left the control center, returning to his bedroom. His mind then shifted to Chen Run's mind on the first floor.
......
At this moment, Chen Run and Qin Yi had also finished absorbing the crystal energy.
Chen Run is at level 3 with 910 points, and Qin Yi is at level 3 with 569 points. Both of them still need some time before breaking through to level 4, so this trip to Guangzhou may not be of much help.
Huang Zhao led Qin Yi to the training ground west of Dawn City, where they found Qingfeng forging an alloy spear in the forging room.
Today, after absorbing the energy of the level four crystal, Qingfeng broke through to level three.
Luo Jian, who joined later, absorbed high-level crystals thanks to Huang Zhao's resource allocation, and also broke through to the next level today.
Two level-three metal-type ability users can forge simple alloy daggers and spears, shaping many at once, greatly increasing efficiency.
Within a few days, they will be able to arm all the survivors of Dawn City and begin developing new weapons and equipment more suitable for the post-apocalyptic world.
Upon seeing Huang Zhao and the other person arrive, Qingfeng immediately stopped what he was doing.
"Lord of the City, you wanted to see me?"
"Okay, based on Captain Qin's physique, use your superpowers to forge another set of alloy armor."
If any additional materials are needed, you can request them on the terminal, and the AI will arrange for a maid to deliver them.
"Yes, Lord City Lord."
"After breaking through to level three, my ability allows me to perform more precise modifications to metal. Does the city lord need me to improve the performance of the armor?"
"If your superpowers allow you to do it, then just use them all."
If it really improves the situation, then make two more sets of armor, based on my and Captain Qin's physiques; you won't lose any points.
"Yes, Lord City Lord!"
Qingfeng was somewhat excited; the work of crafting daggers and spears according to templates had already made him want to vomit.
However, at this time, the efficiency of the other two members of the forging team was not enough to meet the equipment needs of all members of Dawn City.
Qingfeng could only assist in speeding up the creation process. Now that he had Huang Zhao's approval, he could research supernatural abilities to create new equipment, which naturally made him very happy.
After explaining the matter of Qingfeng forging the armor, Huang Zhao and Qin Yi left the Dawn City area and headed to the first special marker.
Today's task, in addition to clearing out advanced zombies and mutated beasts, is to collect fuel from all gas stations within a 10-kilometer radius of Dawn City.
In the previous zero-yuan purchase campaign, Huang Zhao only collected from more than ten of the forty gas stations. He plans to collect from the rest today.
The success of the zombie burning plan made Huang Zhao want to keep going. If he continued, he would soon be able to clear out all the zombies in the surrounding area!
In addition, Huang Zhao plans to find a suitable location in other areas outside Dawn City to build another incinerator.
According to the current construction progress, the outer city wall will soon be built to the south, at which point the southern incineration pit will need to be temporarily halted.
Stopping for even one day would mean losing tens of thousands of energy crystals, and Huang Zhao felt a pang of pain at the thought, finding it completely unacceptable.
With a clear objective, they rushed at full speed until 2 PM.
North of Dawn City, Huang Zhao collected the fuel from the last gas station and put it into his special ability space.
A total of 33 gas stations were inspected, and approximately 6,000 cubic meters of oil storage tanks and nearly 100 oil tankers of various sizes were collected.
Oil tankers are great! If used properly, they can be a nightmare for low-level zombies. I just haven't had the chance to try using large firecrackers to blow up zombies yet.
In addition, thanks to Huang Zhao's deliberate search, he has basically explored all the areas within a 10-kilometer radius of Dawn City.
The locations where survivors were found were marked on the search and rescue team's map. There were approximately 30,000 survivors in a range of nearly 4 million square kilometers, but fewer than 100 survived.
Even if some had already left the city and fled, or hadn't been discovered by Huang Zhao, there wouldn't be many.
"I'm not too surprised, but if possible, it would be best to rescue them as soon as possible."
"At that time, the construction speed of Dawn City and the strength of the survivors will be greatly improved!"
Huang Zhao remembered the largest survivor base Chen Run had visited in his previous life, the Shangjing Gathering Place.
The number of survivors reached nearly 2 million. In addition to the survivors rescued locally, the majority were survivors who spontaneously traveled from all over the country to Beijing.
This formed the largest and most powerful gathering place on Earth.
Compared to other places, Dawn City's current scale is just a small fry and nothing at all.
At this moment, Huang Zhao and Qin Yi were resting and eating at the gas station to replenish their energy.
The terminal suddenly received a communication request from Brother Jie. After answering, he said:
"Lord, the visiting team has clashed with a group of survivors about 10 kilometers east of Dawn City."
They set up a gathering place around the logistics park, with about forty or fifty people.
The leader was a level two flesh-based ability user, who probably knew the secret of absorbing zombie crystals.
"Are our people alright?"
Ignoring the other party's status as a level two ability user, Huang Zhao asked.
