The surveillance personnel continued to send back messages.
"I saw with my own eyes that they built a seven-story house inside the wall in just one hour."
Two hours later.
"Three tall buildings have been built now. There are people standing guard on top. I don't know if they have noticed us."
Three hours later.
"They had a lot of large construction equipment, all from the last century. They had built outside the wall. We had to retreat a kilometer to continue observing."
Four hours later.
"They made so much noise that they attracted quite a few zombies. But they've all been wiped out. Judging by the firepower, they have plenty of ammunition." The overwhelming hail of bullets was thrilling to watch. Unlike them, they wouldn't use guns if knives were available, and if they did, they'd kill them one by one, not wasting any bullets. Seeing this, I felt a strange itch.
Five hours later.
"After repelling the zombies, many more zombie animals came. They actually have missiles! The zombie animal group was completely wiped out..." Where did this rich man come from? Could it be the hidden army of their country?
One day and one night later.
The surveillance officer, observing through binoculars, was nearly bulging with fear, his mouth hanging open as he relayed a message through his communicator. "They... built a large base... in just one day and one night..." Holy crap... were they even human? He'd seen people building houses before the apocalypse, but how could they do it so fast? The structure wasn't the kind of prefab houses they used. Even if they were using prefab materials, they couldn't have achieved this speed!
Qi Hengzhong, standing nearby, was also stunned by the news, staring blankly out the window. This group of people was even more powerful than he'd imagined! And their resources must be plentiful! Otherwise, how could they have built such a large base overnight?
Based on the information sent back by the observers, Qi Hengzhong was certain that the base was built in the style of a military base. The force behind this group of people must be the military! Even if it wasn't the military, the highest commander should also be someone in the military!
A well-trained army after the apocalypse, with such strength... could it be from the capital?!
But how had they managed to get here so quietly? There was no reason they wouldn't have noticed such a large group suddenly appearing. Moreover, they were carrying a lot of heavy equipment! They'd even resorted to using missiles. If they unleashed their full firepower, Qi Hengzhong wasn't sure if their base could hold off without using their trump card.
Fortunately, based on the current situation, it can be determined that this group of people are most likely friends rather than enemies. However, further observation is needed.
Of course, it wasn't just the Hope Base that observed this scene. There were five or six bases of varying sizes nearby.
The noise made by Rosen's group couldn't be concealed. Of course, they didn't expect to be able to conceal it, otherwise they wouldn't have moved the wall and sent people to scout everywhere. The area was full of ruins, almost completely collapsed, so there was no need to worry about anyone discovering their secret from above.
After discovering the situation here, people from the surrounding bases came to investigate, thinking that if they were a fat sheep, they would just gobble it all up. These people actually had so many resources, and they could even build houses? It would be a shame not to grab them!
Unexpectedly, what happened next was beyond their imagination.
Qi Hengzhong wasn't the only one to hear the news; the other base leaders were so frightened they prepared gifts overnight, intending to personally visit and acknowledge their boss. When their subordinates asked if they were still going to rob supplies, they all denied it! What do you mean by robbing supplies? You dare to touch my things? Do you want to die?
…
Military personnel carried sacks of food through the light curtain. A large truck had been assembled opposite the light gate. Once the food passed through, someone immediately loaded it onto the truck.
After Director Gao arranged everything, he left Zhou Qihai in charge and planned to go to the other side to see this strange world in person.
"Director Gao, you can't go! How can you put yourself in danger?!"
"Director Gao, the situation on the other side is unclear. Although we have made many preparations, their technology is hard to defend against. We don't know what cards they have."
"Yes, Director Gao, if you really want to go, you can come and check it out after we have completely opened up that area."
"If anything were to happen to your identity, our entire security bureau's exploration of other worlds would be affected. This goes against your original intention."
Everyone talked a lot, and Director Gao was convinced. His current position was indeed quite sensitive, so Director Gao finally sent Zhou Qihai to the scene, while he himself took charge of the center.
"Comrade An Jingzhi, I'll trouble you with this trip again. In the future, you won't have to take the risk of going to the other side." Zhou Qihai did what he said. After reporting to his superiors about their relationship, he took the time to apologize to An Jingzhi. Of course, An Jingzhi didn't care.
"It's okay. After all, I was the one who brought you there. If I don't show up this time, the other party might have some ideas. As long as we complete this transaction and establish a foundation of trust, the rest of the process will be easy."
In another world, large military pickup trucks rolled out of the base one after another. A few tanks led the way, clearing the road of the "trash" they had drawn. Behind them, numerous security personnel handled various emergencies.
The surveillance crews from various bases watched the scene from a distance, naturally noticing the other party's personnel and keeping a wary eye on each other, but no one took action. They were still under the noses of the larger base. Wouldn't taking action expose them?
"Oh my god! Why do they have tanks!? Am I seeing things?"
"What's that on their car? It's covered with a green cloth?"
"This base is truly a grand undertaking! Aside from these outdated equipment, it's not much different from the pre-apocalyptic national armies!"
"Who the hell is behind this base? They got so many things in one night without a trace. We've been staring at them, but we still can't figure out where they came from!"
"They were able to build such a large base overnight. How powerful must the force behind them be? Could it be that the country still has surviving troops?!"
"It's over, we won't be cleaned out, right?!" Some people became anxious when they thought of the cruel things they had done.
"Bullshit! What national army? If they really existed, how could they have hidden it for over a decade?"
"Damn it, where did they get so many cars?" A bearded and fierce-looking man swallowed his saliva, his face full of shock.
"Where do they get the oil? I heard this car is started with oil."
"This group may have discovered a military base from the last century."
"The energy crystals for our transport have long been used up. Now it's just a pile of scrap metal. Do you think if we can get some oil, we can start it?"
"It should be possible, but the speed may not be as fast as before. But where do you want to get oil? Do they have it? Do you dare to rob them?"
