Hearing Akashi's cry, Jia Sheng asked Gu Zhuo:
"Gu Zhuo, are the words of these people credible?"
Gu Zhuo thought for a while before replying to him:
"I told you about the person opposite, he is Akashi, and what he said should be credible. But I have to ask first, how did they find this place."
After speaking, Gu Zhuo asked Akashi and others through the loudspeaker installed on the metal door:
"Akashi, how did you find yourself here? Ordinary people can't find you here!"
Of course, Akashi didn't hide anything from him, and he still answered at the top of his lungs:
"It's Xiao Ding. I have some friendship with him. He told me that you were here. As soon as I heard that you were here, I rushed here with my convoy overnight! I rushed here all day and all night before I came here early this morning!"
"Who are those soldiers around you?"
"They are all people who have been with me through life and death. They are trustworthy. Like me, they are willing to follow you to the death! As for Yue Cen, you should still remember it."
Hearing this, Gu Zhuo's vigilance was mostly gone. He opened the metal door and said to Akashi and others:
"Come in and talk."
Seeing this, Akashi and others returned to the car and drove into the base.
When they drove into the base and saw the entire structure inside the base, the sci-fi buildings came into their sight, and everyone couldn't help but marvel:
What a grand project this must be! They really couldn't imagine how Gu Zhuo started building this base while facing the doomsday crisis.
"Brother Ming, I always thought you were exaggerating. Now it seems that Brother Gu is actually more powerful than you described. Even if the country came to build this place, it would not be completed so quickly. Even if it was completed, , it’s impossible to do this!”
A man in the armored car looked around with disbelief. This place seemed even safer than the inside of the bunker.
"Yes, I have told you a long time ago that Gu Zhuo's abilities are unfathomable, and following him is the most correct choice."
Akashi replied, but a sense of exclamation could also be heard in his tone.
Four cars stopped next to the Doomsday Fortress. Akashi got out of the car with a few people and stood beside the car, silently waiting for Gu Zhuo to get off the Doomsday Fortress.
Although Gu Zhuo's vigilance was reduced by most, for the sake of conservatism, he still wore a war machine on his body.
He opened the car door of the Fortress of Doom and walked out.
Seeing Gu Zhuo wearing a war machine, everyone was surprised at first sight except Yue Cen, who had already seen him before. One of the soldiers almost subconsciously raised his gun to defend, but was stopped by Akashi in time:
"Don't move, he should be Gu Zhuo."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Zhuo walked up to him and stretched out his hand:
"Akashi, I didn't expect your appeal to be so strong now."
Hearing Gu Zhuo's familiar voice, Akashi's eyes immediately moistened. He grabbed Gu Zhuo's outstretched hand with his left hand, and the two leaned on each other's shoulders.
"Gu Zhuo, I've found you now!"
Gu Zhuo patted his back and noticed Yue Cen standing next to him. Like Akashi, Yue Cen's eyes were a little moist and her whole body was trembling with excitement. It seemed that she had been looking forward to this reunion for a long time. For a long time.
Gu Zhuo let go of Akashi, looked at Yue Cen, and asked her:
"Yue Cen, why are you with Akashi?"
Yue Cen raised his hand to wipe his tears and replied:
"After I was separated from you, it didn't take long for me to be found by a helicopter rescue sent by the government. After being rescued, I met Akashi by chance. Akashi told me about you, and we checked each other and confirmed The same person saved us. Then we became friends.
"We have been looking for you together for a long time, from the time you defected from the government to now."
"You were looking for me aimlessly like this, and you found me now?"
"yes!"
Yue Cen nodded solemnly,
"We firmly believe that we will find you! Even the weak like us can survive tenaciously in the apocalypse by relying on our faith. Strong people like you will definitely keep driving somewhere in the world. We believe that as long as we Keep looking and I will meet you one day!"
Gu Zhuo also didn't expect that the actions he made to live up to his conscience would now attract such a group of loyal followers to him.
"Hai, please introduce to me the people around you. I don't know them yet."
Gu Zhuo turned his attention to the three men and two women behind Akashi.
When the three men and two women heard this, they each introduced their names.
The strongest man among them was named Niu Zheng. Niu Zheng had a deep scar on his face that extended to the bottom of his neck and into the middle of his chest. Akashi said that it was drawn out to save him. Niu Zheng is as trustworthy to Akashi as Jia Sheng is to Gu Zhuo.
The other two men were named Huang Qiang and Chen Weimin. They and Niu Zheng both belonged to the same squadron before and were brothers who lived together through life and death. They are all in their twenties and thirties, and are in the golden period of their lives.
Logically speaking, they were all older than Gu Zhuo, but they kept calling Gu Zhuo "Brother Gu", which made Gu Zhuo feel a little uncomfortable.
There are also two female soldiers. They are both in their twenties and sixties. They are special female soldiers and are also the best age among female soldiers. The taller one, about 1.75 meters tall, is called Liu Liu, and the shorter one is called Zhang Wenhong.
The two of them still retained their consciences and could not stand what the government was doing, so they voluntarily defected with Akashi.
After introducing each other, Gu Zhuo asked Jia Sheng to get off the armed helicopter through the intercom:
"Let's all get to know each other."
Hearing this, Jia Sheng and Xia Ran got off the armed helicopter.
As soon as he saw Xia Ran, Akashi's eyes widened and he shouted in surprise:
"Xiao Ran! Why are you here! Shi Yong's plane had an accident. I thought you were with them..."
Xia Ran was used to showing her true colors to others, and now she didn't want to pretend anymore, so she said coldly with an attitude that Akashi had never expected:
"They were all dead. I was protected by my mother. With good luck, I met Gu Zhuo again and saved my life."
Akashi did not become suspicious because of Xia Ran's attitude. He said with some heartache and sigh:
"Well, your mother should be relieved to see that you are now being protected by Gu Zhuo..."
Gu Zhuo took over the conversation in time, briefly introduced the two groups to each other, and also made Jia Sheng get to know a few of them.
After introducing each other, Akashi realized that one person was missing. He looked around and asked:
"Gu Zhuo, where is Miss Chaoying? Why didn't you see her?"
"Oh, she is in the Fortress of Doom. She has been busy recently. I asked her to rest first and introduce them to them later."
"good."
Akashi nodded.
He remembered the purpose of traveling all this time and quickly continued:
"Gu Zhuo, although my next request will be very abrupt, and I don't know if you are willing, I still want to ask you, can a few of us become members of your team and stay here?"
Afraid that Gu Zhuo would not be willing, Akashi said sincerely:
"We can guard the safety of your base at all costs! Although your base doesn't seem to need us... we can also go out to find supplies and materials for you. As long as there is a need, we will try our best to help! As long as you let us join your team... we will definitely be your most loyal followers!"
Seeing what Akashi said so sincerely, several people behind him looked at Gu Zhuo with expectant eyes, and Gu Zhuo suddenly felt that there was a heavy burden on him.
This burden made him breathless. He had never been a person with a sense of collective honor, let alone someone who got into trouble just because of a few words from others.
Now that he has provoked the government and the Prophetic Cult, he has to find a way to protect his own safety and take care of a few new members. I am afraid that he is a bit overwhelmed.
When Jia Sheng risked his life to help him, he let him join the team, and Xia Ran's superpower was useful to them again. But for the few people in front of them, to put it bluntly, there are robot butlers working for them in the base, and they don't need the help of other people. I wonder if they will turn into a burden to me.
Gu Zhuo's conscience and his reason that don't want more trouble are constantly fighting.
Finally, he sighed and said:
"Akashi, to be honest, I am in trouble now. You know the Prophet Cult, right? They are targeting me, so if you join me now, I may not be able to guarantee your absolute safety. And without me, the few of you Aren’t you also surviving well in the apocalypse?”
Hearing this, Akashi lowered his head sadly, shook his head, and said with sadness:
"No, at that time we robbed six armored vehicles from the government, and there were twenty or thirty people following me. Now we are the only ones left..."
After he finished speaking, he raised his head sharply, grabbed Gu Zhuo's hand, and said with tears in his eyes:
"Gu Zhuo, only you can give us hope now. The government can't save us. The Prophetic Cult is a cult, and we are even less willing to join in with them. Apart from you, I don't know where else in this world can give us hope. !”
"Yeah, except for you, we really can't find any other hope!"
Yue Cen and the others also looked at Gu Zhuo and said together.
"But..."
Gu Zhuo was still hesitant. In addition to their safety, the food reserves of his base were also a big problem.
Seeing that Gu Zhuo had been hesitating, Akashi's eyes darkened, he sighed, waved his hand, smiled bitterly, and said:
"Forget it, we can't kidnap you morally. No matter what choice you make, this is your business. You are so powerful and have such a fully armed base. We may not be able to help you here. , and also distract you from taking care of us.
"Just because we have imposed our hopes on you, we must not hold you responsible for our hopes. This is unfair to you."
After Akashi finished speaking, he shook his head, and Niu Zheng behind him said:
"Niu Zheng, go to the armored vehicle and unload all the supplies we prepared."
