Zhang Xuan rolled her eyes in annoyance.
"Don't worry, I can still smoke three or five at most. Just don't let me know who stole my stock."
The depression in my heart cannot be vented in just a few words.
Occasionally, when he feels the urge to smoke but cannot, Zhang Xuan's fighting capacity is second only to that of the regiment leader Jiang Li.
The men in the team didn't dare to provoke her, for fear of getting beaten black and blue.
Jiang Li has become accustomed to the personalities of these NPCs in the virtual world.
In the last world, she had experienced it too deeply.
Everyone has independent thoughts and even their own growth path.
This is achievable in Xia Country. After all, Xia Country's technology is at the top of the world. It is the strongest country in the world, and it is comprehensive, without a doubt.
Therefore, when Jiang Li entered that virtual world last time and felt the timeline of that world, he couldn't quite understand it.
Why do we encounter so many misfortunes?
"Boss, everyone, let's eat something."
Cui Ming greeted them from the kitchen window.
There was nothing left in the villa. Today's dinner was what they had looted on the way here.
The apocalypse has been going on for too long. Even if some supplies can be found in some abandoned cities, they are all things that are easy to store but don’t taste very good, such as compressed food.
The others are not edible at all.
Even if you are lucky enough to find a warehouse, it has already been abandoned due to long-term neglect and the disorder caused by the initial riot.
So, it’s already good enough that I can still have something to eat tonight.
Jiang Li was not picky. After finishing his meal in a few bites, he looked at the others.
"Later, you guys take care of cleaning up the zombies around here. I'm going to rest first." He walked to the kitchen door and looked down at the badly worn floor tiles. There were cracks everywhere, but fortunately they were still flat. "Let's go to Huaicheng tomorrow afternoon."
Cui Ming is the team's compass. "Boss, what are we going to Huaicheng for?"
Huaicheng is a central city in Xia State, about four or five hundred kilometers away from the base. It is close to the desert area, which is also unsafe, or even more dangerous.
In the beginning, because of the dense population of Xia Country, even though the zombie outbreak was responded to as quickly as possible, it still spread at an extremely fast speed.
At the same time, there were also some people with bad mentality who had the idea of running the newspaper and wanted to take someone else with them when they died. There was a period of chaos for a while.
Later, they learned that these zombies were basically immortal as long as they were not shot in the head, but they were extremely dangerous. In the end, they threw these infected people directly into the desert.
Otherwise, there would be no other place to accommodate hundreds of millions of mutated zombies.
Let them die?
This number is too high. What if a vaccine is developed?
Today, the number of infections is still slowly increasing. This is not because the base is inaction, but because human nature plays a role.
In the beginning, there were too many people who wanted to get rich and tried to take advantage of the chaos to make more money.
As a result, the situation became difficult to control in a short period of time, and ultimately nearly half of the people in the entire Xia Kingdom were killed or injured.
During that period, the general of the Xia State was furious, and the officials of the Xia State sent people everywhere to arrest some evil people. In addition to some people who encountered the zombie virus, many were executed.
Even so, those crazy people still come in droves like a swarm of locusts.
It was not until two years after the disaster that the entire Xia Kingdom finally gained complete peace and respite.
The official population count showed that out of a country with a population of over one billion, the Xia Kingdom had less than 500 million people.
Just when we thought we could get some respite and development, the animals and plants began to mutate.
The slightest injury could lead to infection, and thus, humanity was once again facing a crisis.
Now, ten years after the end of the world, the world's total population has dropped to less than one billion, of which there are just over 300 million left in Xia Country, concentrated in five major bases.
The situation in other countries is even more imaginable.
More than half of the countries have been destroyed, and the rest are huddled in their own territories, struggling to survive.
Nowadays, it is basically difficult for countries to maintain constant communication, and there is no way to transport supplies to each other.
There are mutated birds in the sky that have doubled in size, and the mutated water biological clocks in the ocean are even more terrifying. For countries that are not connected by land, contact with each other is almost certain to end in death.
Even between neighboring countries, communication is difficult.
There are usually not many residents along the border, and since all the living people have moved to extremely low places, only the hunting groups can still move around. The outside world has become a paradise for animals, plants, and zombies.
Jiang Li looked at the darkening sky outside with cold eyes.
"High-level mutant zombies were found over there."
The eight people present were silent for a moment, and only after Jiang Li disappeared on the stairs did they sigh deeply.
"Since the boss said it was a high-level zombie, it must be really difficult to deal with."
"The current level classification was set by our boss, right? We fought the highest-level one before, and it was ranked level five by the boss. This one must be at least level five too."
"That's bad."
"Lao Zhang, don't smoke these days. Just bear with it."
Zhang Xuan rolled her eyes and did not refute.
Seeing several people discussing going to Huaicheng, Zhang Xuan stood up, clenched his fists, picked up the AK and walked out of the villa.
"Lao Zhang, I'm with you."
While walking out, Zhang Xuan went to the jungle area to complain again.
[No one's confessed yet, huh? Damn it, a bunch of scum. I'm issuing a bounty. Whoever finds the thief who looted the Fenglei Squad's base will have his life spared. Three hours, no reward after that.]
This piece of news instantly set off a sensation among all the major jungle groups in Xia Country.
This is the Fenglei Squad, the number one jungle group in Xia Country and the only war god-level outdoor hunting team.
Getting a promise from them is really like having an extra life, and no one would be willing to refuse such temptation.
Just as Zhang Xuan reached out and deftly twisted off a zombie's head, he heard the sound of a private message.
When he opened the message, he didn't notice that there were three zombies rushing towards him with fangs and claws.
With three sharp "bang" sounds, the three zombies' heads exploded and they died.
He twirled the pistol around his fingers a few times and looked at the private message.
Zhang Xuan shouted towards someone not far away, "Old Zhong, someone said that the people who stole our land were from the Rose Squad, and there's a video of it."
Lao Zhong swiftly dispatched a zombie and strode over.
He glanced at Zhang Xuan's phone and said, "Contact them and ask them to send all the supplies back. You can also ask for more compensation."
Zhang Xuan nodded, that was exactly what she meant.
As for whether the other party will return it or not?
Is there any need to ask?
If you don't return it, then wait to be beaten. With the influence of the Fenglei team, as long as you promise a benefit, many jungle groups will be jealous.
There is absolutely no place for the Rose Squad.
