Ch11 - Goal of The Rescue Team

Translator’s Note:

Thanks to reaching the donation goal, this chapter is an extra one that I decided to release. Enjoy reading  (´▽`ʃ♡ƪ). 

———————————————————

Loud sounds came from the street, and the zombies from far and near all excitedly chased after the vehicles. 

Wei Xuan, who was busy in an open space, hit his sore old waist, raised his hand and wiped it on his sweaty forehead, and sighed after seeing this: “I almost forgot, so it’s already this day.”

During the nearly two weeks, Wei Xuan took his own zombie around the area where he expected to live for a long time in the future, searching for supplies during the day and dealing with certain things at night, as he didn’t want to be seen. Today, he has finally tried his best to deal with the materials within his ability that can sustain his life for a long time.

And today is the day when the army enters the urban area to rescue some big bosses and their families in T City.

In his previous life, Wei Xuan barely healed his injuries when this army entered the city and was looking for a place where the survivors would live together. So the armored car that appeared on this day is his best guide. 

He doesn’t need to follow these vehicles at all, he just needs to follow the traces they left on the road when they came, and he can find the target. From this point of view, the road conditions in China are not very good, and tracks are left behind when they are pressed by armored vehicles. But now, a deep imprint can be regarded as a major advantage, right?

Wei Xuan didn’t know whether the rescue mission of this unit was successful or not, because it was already half a month later when he arrived at the base closest to City T. During his journey, he entered several cities along the way. 

We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.

This half month was not because of how slow Wei Xuan was walking on the road, but because the wound on his body was too eye-catching, the wound on his shoulder was obviously gnawed out by zombies. In the early days of the end of the world, the wounded are either killed or taken as experimental subjects. Wei Xuan didn’t want to cause trouble for himself, so he had no choice but to find a place to live near the base, cultivate his body, and enter the base after the scars of the wound healed and no traces could be seen at all.

After moving his stiff and sore shoulders, Wei Xuan turned around and looked at Du Hang, who was obviously excited by the discovery of the human breath, and pulled Du Hang’s arm that had a basket hanging on: “Good boy, we can’t go there, let’s go home today.” 

Half a month was enough for Wei Xuan to use Du Hang’s sensitive nose to find a completely uninhabited community. And this community happened to be located next to the residential area that still had gray smoke curling up at this time, and where a series of explosions and fires had occurred at the beginning of the end of the world.

Because the power of the fire was terrifying enough, even if there were still people sticking to the nearby residential buildings, the smoke from the fire seriously affected the vision and life of the nearby people and they would even hear the sound of explosions from time to time. Under the astonishing light of the fire, they had probably abandoned their original home, and risked being attacked by zombies in order to escape, find a new way out, or leave the city altogether. 

Therefore, Wei Xuan was very lucky to find such an empty community.

In the past half a month, in addition to dealing with the supplies he gathered, Wei Xuan took the coolie Du Hang to travel together. In order to ensure the safety of the operation, he simply changed his work and rest time, and the sky was completely dark every day. After that, he went out and moved all kinds of materials he collected in the hot pot restaurant to his current residence, and then used some time during the day to wander around, confirm the available material points, organize some things, and put them in relatively hidden places for storage. 

He waited until the dead of night to bring in the things he needed to organize.

Of course, at the same time, every time he returned to his residence, he was very careful to grab some ownerless zombies wandering around the streets and bring them to the neighborhood he lived in, or take them to the houses of people in the neighborhood that still had zombies in their rooms. He brought them into this community so they can act as bodyguards.  

There are six-story buildings in this community, and Wei Xuan didn’t choose the bottom floor or the highest floor. Of course, the room on the highest floor was also unceremoniously requisitioned by him to continue drying the raw fish, raw meat, dried vegetables, and dried fruits he had collected before.

These days, he has to climb up to the sixth floor and walk around for a while, first to check the condition of his dried food, and second, to use the altitude to check the surrounding situation. 

With the help of Du Hang’s super strength and the explosion-proof ax he found, holes were opened between all the units on the top floor of the entire building. The hole is not big, and you need to bend over to get through it, but it is enough for him to go back and forth between the top floors of these five units, avoiding the hard life of climbing the sixth floor again every time he goes to the top floor of a building.

Today, after returning to this residential building where Wei Xuan has completely monopolized the area, he first put some temporarily unused tools, baskets, and other things into a room on the first floor, and then he pulled Du Hang again. Climb up to the sixth floor, pick up the binoculars that he brought back, and carefully look at the outside situation. 

Although this building is not the one on the farthest side, it happens to be able to see a section of each of the three streets near the community from the window of the corner room. At this time, he can see the target building of the armored vehicles.

The place where these armored vehicles are going is not too far from the nest chosen by Wei Xuan. In addition, many military vehicles are very tall, and they can be faintly seen from the gaps in the buildings. 

When Wei Xuan was looking at those armored vehicles from a distance, suddenly there was a loud rumbling sound, and more than half of a building not far away collapsed in response, which just widened Wei Xuan’s field of vision, but at this time his face was not pretty, and he gritted his teeth and cursed in a low voice: “Damn… If I had known that they were going to go that way, I shouldn’t have planted vegetables in the open field over there a few days ago…”

That’s right, in addition to collecting various materials these days, what Wei Xuan has done more is to plant the mutated plants that he found earlier that can be eaten by people in the last days, and plant them on the streets of this city one after another, in the open space of the alley. In addition, any plants suspected of mutating were removed by him. 

After all, this is the place where he plans to live forever in the future.

As there may be other survivors in the city, the edible plants planted by Wei Xuan may also be discovered by others. But first of all, once these things grow and are ready for harvesting, with the amount Wei Xuan sows at this time, he will definitely not be able to eat it by himself. Secondly, he originally planted these things separately in all the open spaces he passed by just in case, and he would not take care of them deliberately after that, he would only check the situation when it was needed. Even if they all get poached and eaten by others, it will not affect his future survival. 

After all, he planted this mutated plant in the open space of the city just in case, and now almost all the open space in this community has been sown with plants that can produce food. Planting in batches and cycles is enough for him to feed himself in the future.

The rumbling sound in the distance not only attracted the attention of Wei Xuan but also the attention of the nearby zombies. The survivors still at home in T City were even more attracted by this sound and looked out one after another, wanting to go out. 

Those who were closer naturally found traces of those armored vehicles immediately, and some people immediately called for help and waved at the window, hoping to get help. More people were worried that the other party would not come to help them after discovering these military vehicles, so they rushed downstairs and rushed to their private cars while taking advantage of the zombies outside their doors and downstairs being attracted away. They call for help, or just ran out to ask for help!

It is now two full weeks after the apocalypse started. People living in big cities rarely have the habit of preparing too much food at home. In addition, since it all started, fires and explosions have occurred in various places around the city, and wires and cables have been destroyed. Water pipes and other things were broken, and many people’s water and electricity stopped working. The rest of the survivors also found out in horror after waking up early this morning that the water supply system in the city seemed to be completely paralyzed, and there was no more water flowing from the taps! 

It was already the end of the world surrounded by zombies outside, and now another blow made these people completely desperate. At this time, the arrival of military vehicles passing outside obviously gave people hope—maybe, these people are the team that came into the city to search and rescue survivors!!

However, after the initial excitement and surprise, those people who did not run out of their homes discovered in despair that the team of armed vehicles did indeed enter the urban area to rescue the trapped people, the rescue targets were definitely not those standing in their own homes.  

The goal of the team is very clear. After entering the city, they will go straight to the community in a prosperous area in the center of T-City, occupying an excellent location in T City. A high-end residential high-rise community that can be sold for 40,000 to 50,000 square meters.

Apart from the high-rise buildings in that community, there are also small villas that have been built long before certain regulations were issued. All of them are small single-family buildings that ordinary people have no chance to buy. A regular resident there was either a tycoon or a person with a very strong background. 

At this time, the team’s destination was undoubtedly there!
