Chapter 1385 Night, Wilderness, Zombies

Since Jia City is located in the west, the time zone is different from that in the east.

It is already past eight o'clock in the evening, but the sky is still bright.

Although the sun is setting in the west, it is at least an hour away from dark.

It is midsummer, and if it is to be completely dark here, it will be nearly ten o'clock in the evening.

After leaving the hospital, the boss returned to his residence with a calm face.

It is difficult for Youlong and Xu Lao who followed him to guess what the boss is thinking at this time.

Youlong can't think of it at all. Xu Lao is at least a person close to the boss. He has followed the boss for many years and knows a little bit.

He probably knows that what really makes the boss interested in Oil City is not Qinglong, nor the oil in Oil City. After all, they have a large oil field in their hands.

What really interests the boss may be that Oil City can control zombies.

As for the boss asking Yuan Zhi to lead the way to the north, it is probably not just to lead the way.

After all, the boss also knows that there are not only Yuan Zhi who came out with Yuan Zhi, but also two other men who followed Yuan Zhi.

But why must Yuan Zhi lead the way in person?

The boss's idea may not be that simple.

The boss's words just now revealed that Oil City should not be underestimated, but is the boss really afraid of the forces in Oil City?

Not necessarily.

Being able to occupy such a place in the northwest in the end of the world, the boss's means are not weak.

The boss's layout is subtle and silent.

It was not until the ending came out that he could appreciate one or two of them.

After returning to the residence, the boss went upstairs in slippers and turned around to see Youlong still following him.

"Youlong, go down. It's hard for you to come back from the thunderstorm disaster. You don't have to go on missions recently. Have a good rest."

"Yes, boss, I'll go down then." Youlong replied quickly.

"Yeah."

The boss just changed his shoes and seemed to remember something.

"I remember Yuan Zhi came with two of his men, right?"

"Yes."

"Treat them well and build relationships with them. Once they come here, they are our own people."

Youlong nodded. He still didn't understand.

But he knew to do it.

"I understand."

After Youlong left, the boss sat on the sofa and continued to read the half-read book.

After reading for an hour, he suddenly raised his head.

A gleam of light flashed in his deep eyes.

"Oil City? Lord Li, Qinglong? Control zombies."

Northern Territory.

Unlike the Northwest, it was completely dark here after seven o'clock.

In the dark night, purple-blue lights flickered on the walls of the Northern Territory.

Shan Zheng stood on the wall, staring at the plains south of the Northern Territory in a daze.

"Brother, is this ultraviolet lamp useful?" Chang Wei asked with some doubt as he looked at the installed ultraviolet lamp.

Shan Zheng still looked at the dark night in the distance, the lonely plains, giving people a feeling of emptiness and desolation.

"What Minister Li said should be useful. Let everyone cheer up. Whether it is useful or not, we will know when the wall-climbing zombies appear later."

"Oh."

Time flows slowly.

There are zombies gathered under the wall of the North Border, but there are less than a thousand zombies, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

Suddenly, a sharp roar came from under the wall.

Dan Zheng hurriedly looked to the right, and saw a thin and small shadow jumping down from the wall in a panic.

It jumped on the ground and disappeared into the darkness in a few seconds.

"Is that a wall-climbing zombie?"

Sun Wei beside him walked over excitedly. He saw it very clearly just now.

"That's the wall-climbing zombie. I saw it. Brother, the ultraviolet lamp is really useful!"

"That's great. This way we can still have a good sleep. I feel like I'm shaking all over now. I'm too sleepy." Chang Wei looked excited.

The corners of Dan Zheng's mouth rose. The ultraviolet lamp is really useful.

This news quickly spread to other people's ears. When they learned that the ultraviolet lamp given by Uncle San and others was useful, everyone was extremely excited.

"Oil City is really amazing. They thought of a way to restrain this kind of wall-climbing zombies so quickly."

"Yes, now we are not afraid of that kind of zombies."

"Hey, do you think these zombies will mutate into other more difficult zombies later?"

"Crow Mouth, don't talk."

After seeing that the ultraviolet lamp was useful, the Eagle of the Eagle Gang immediately gave instructions to his subordinates.

"Lao Fei, you take some brothers back to our original base tomorrow and bring everything that can be used in the base to the North Border."

Lao Fei asked in surprise: "Ah, we will never leave the North Border in the future?"

Lao Ying then roughly told him the content of the meeting with Minister Li in the inner city in the afternoon.

When Lao Fei heard that he would be able to become a member of the outer city of the North Border in the future, he was not very happy.

Because when Yuan Zhi was in charge of the North Border before, he did not give any benefits to the outer city personnel at all.

Only occasionally a few of these refugees were selected to do some tasks. These people from the outer city were essentially refugees who came here to seek shelter.

The Northern Territory would not give them any food, nor would they care if they fought in the outer city.

When Yuan Zhi was in charge of the Northern Territory, he basically did not manage the outer city.

"After we entered the Northern Territory, as people from the outer city, we had to build greenhouses and grow crops, and they would give us food."

"What? Boss, you can still give us food. Is it a continuous supply? Or just for a while?" Lao Fei asked in surprise, with doubt in his tone.

"From what Minister Li said, it should be continuous supply, but we will probably focus on growing crops in the outer city later."

"But. We don't know how."

"Minister Li said he would send someone to teach us."

"That's great, Boss. This feels like a good opportunity. The people in Oil City are so powerful and generous. We feel very motivated to get along with them."

The eagle looked up and looked at the stars in the sky, feeling a lot of emotion in his heart.

It's good to lean on a big tree for shade. The premise of this sentence is that the big tree is willing to block the sun for you.

If the big tree is unwilling to block the sun for you, it's useless to lean on the big tree.

Just like the North Territory under the control of Yuan Zhi, they have always relied on military suppression to squeeze benefits from them and never considered them.

Although the people in Oil City are really rough and ruthless, if they take a fancy to you, you will be treated well.

The night is lonely.

The camphor tree base.

In the inner city meeting room.

Lao Luo, Lao Bi, the second uncle, and Li Yu gathered together.

Lao Luo and Lao Bi both successfully advanced to the inner city staff last time. They are qualified to enter and leave the inner city freely, and they are also allocated a separate suite in the inner city.

However, since Lao Luo and Lao Bi often work in the outer city, they are basically in the outer city during the day and only come back at night.

Lao Luo and Lao Bi arrived at the camphor tree base in the evening.

As soon as they got off the helicopter, they entered the inner city and reported the findings of this trip to the city lord.

On the black mahogany table, two national maps were spread out.

There were red circles marked on them.

Some red circles were marked with a small five-pointed star next to them.

"City Lord, the farthest place we have reached along the way is Wufeng Mountain in the north of Anshi. The force in Anshi is slightly larger. We should have thousands of people, but their weapons and equipment are somewhat ordinary. Less than one-tenth of them have guns."

"As for the others, they are all small forces, with hundreds of people at most and dozens of people at least."

Li Yu looked at the location marked by the five-pointed star on the map pointed by Lao Luo, which was the ancient capital of Anshi in 13 dynasties.

Thousands of people? One-tenth of the gun-carrying rate is only about a hundred people.

This strength is not very strong.

According to Qing Yuan, the force in the northwest at least has the strength to compete with the big camphor tree base.

It is even stronger than the big camphor tree base.

Otherwise, there is no need to mention it separately.

Li Yu frowned and looked at the force distribution map marked on the map when he flew to Ning Province Lao Bi.

They used small cardboard to write the approximate location and strength of these forces.

"City Lord, this is the picture we took of these forces with our mobile phone, please take a look." Lao Luo took out his mobile phone and handed it to Li Yu.

Li Yu swiped the photos in his phone left and right. Looking at the photos in his phone, he could see that these forces were very ordinary.

There was even a photo in which a force was a convoy.

When the photo was taken, the convoy just stopped and looked up at the helicopter in the sky.

Huh——

Li Yu had a headache and put his phone on the table. These forces were very ordinary. It seemed that they would pose a great threat to the camphor tree base.

Second uncle picked up the phone and looked at it carefully, frowning slightly.

"Xiao Yu, I think we can't look at the surface. Maybe they look ordinary, but maybe they have something similar to zombie attracting potion. It's not impossible."

Li Yu heard this and thought about it carefully. He felt that what Second Uncle said made sense.

But in this way, it is impossible to judge which force is the potential enemy.

This is just the result of Lao Luo and Lao Bi's exploration after a trip.

If they go a few more times, they will definitely find more forces.

How to check so many forces scattered in various places.

They don't have so much power to disperse, so they have to understand them one by one.

Besides, a stranger visiting in the end times will definitely arouse their vigilance.

It is also very likely that they will take direct action.

"It's okay. This is actually similar to finding a needle in a haystack. It is meaningful to understand the distribution of forces in other places. We also have a bottom line in our hearts."

"Lao Luo, Lao Bi, you have worked hard on this trip. Take a rest for two days and continue to set off. Just follow your previous plan." Li Yu said to the two.

Lao Luo and Lao Bi drove the helicopter for a long distance, and they were physically exhausted and mentally a little haggard.

"Then the city lord, the president, we will leave first." Lao Luo and Lao Bi stood up.

"Well, go and rest." The second uncle stood up and sent them out of the meeting room.

When the two walked out of the meeting room door, the second uncle sat back next to Li Yu.

"Your uncle has arrived at the North today. There were heavy casualties in the North, and now there are only more than 2,000 people left."

"A member of the Mighty Gang broke into the inner city and was killed on the spot. No other forces participated. According to our original agreement, those affiliated forces in the North will become members of the outer city of the North. They all agreed."

"Yes."

Li Yu continued: "Let Lao Yi and the others hurry up and take the convoy from the Oil City to the North as soon as possible."

"According to the plan, we will go tomorrow morning." The uncle replied.

Now the efficiency of producing ultraviolet lamps in the Dazhangshu base is very high. Almost all the ultraviolet lamps produced are reserved for Oil City and the North, and the rest are distributed to the partners.

To build the Dazhangshu base, various raw materials are needed, and some raw materials need to be found.

This makes it inevitable for these partners to spend the night outside.

A limestone open-pit mine about 50 kilometers south of the Dazhangshu base.

More than 20 new energy trucks surround an inner and outer circle, with the big circle surrounding the small circle.

A total of 30 ultraviolet lamps are placed on these new energy trucks.

These people are Yu Wei and Luo Shichang who came out of the Dazhangshu base to search for limestone mines.

Limestone is one of the necessary raw materials for making cement.

The Dazhangshu base needs a huge amount of cement, and naturally the demand for limestone is also great.

In order to be able to provide a stable supply of limestone, they need to set up a long-term station at the mine.

In the past, there were buildings left in those mines, and they could use those buildings as shelters.

But this open-air limestone mine only built some iron sheds as workers' residences, and the iron sheds were blown all over the ground.

Even if they were not blown away, they could not serve as shelters.

It was too fragile and could not withstand the impact of the zombies.

Although this ore is large, it is completely sufficient to meet the demand for limestone in the Zhangshu base.

But it is a bit remote.

After turning around, some roads were affected by landslides due to thunderstorms, so we had to take a small road to get here.

But after arriving here, we found that this place was too remote and there were no residential buildings around.

Generally speaking, the mines they mined would be mined and transported during the day, and at night they would go to the nearest satellite city to avoid zombies.

After all, ore is basically useless for survivors, let alone zombies.

But on the way here, many roads that were originally accessible were no longer accessible due to the impact of thunderstorms.

It took a long time to get here.

The nearest fifth satellite city is also more than ten kilometers away.

Although it is a bit far, it is still possible to get there.

However, the Fifth Satellite City has not yet fully resumed operation, the ultraviolet lamps are insufficient, and the headquarters base has not yet sent cooperative personnel and non-staff personnel to garrison there.

The night sky is silent.

Whoosh!

A man picked up a stone and threw it into the night.

He couldn't help but say: "This place is too remote. There is no shelter around. There is no sense of security at all."

Yu Wei sat on the roof of the car and listened to his subordinates' complaints, and said with a smile:

"What's the matter? When we went out to perform tasks before, didn't we get here like this? We are used to the comfort of the base."

In the past, when they went out to perform tasks and arrived in the wild, if they did not find a suitable shelter before dark, they would use the vehicles they were driving to form a circle, forming a simple wall made of cars to block zombies.

"Brother Yu, there were no zombies that climbed walls before, nor zombies with amazing jumping ability. Now it feels more and more unsafe to stay in the wild." The subordinate scratched his head and said.

"Haha, don't worry, we are not ultraviolet lamps, we are not afraid of chickens."

Before he finished speaking, a zombie roared in the distance.

Roar!

Swish!

Yu Wei stood up immediately.

He looked at the direction of the zombie roar, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

With a serious face, he shouted to Sergeant Luo on the roof of the right car:

"Searchlight, shine in that direction!"

"Quick!"
