Chapter 145: Riverside Dock Port, Survivors' Forces

Seeing the people behind him hiding behind the abandoned vehicle, Lin Feng immediately activated his telepathy.

Sure enough, in the county ahead, a large number of Zerg with a health value of more than 50 appeared, including red beetles above level seven and hundreds of black spine worms.

However, what surprised Lin Feng was that there were not only Zerg in the small county, but also human survivors within two or three kilometers nearby, including dozens of enhanced people and a rare number of awakened ones.

Are they puppet humans controlled by the Zerg parasitic mother body?

Unfortunately, telepathy can only detect the brightness represented by the health value, which is equivalent to the energy contained in the living body, and then feeds back a point of light. Unlike the appraisal skill, which will be introduced in detail.

Several second-level awakeners behind him followed Lin Feng's gaze and looked at both sides of the cross-river bridge. One of them whispered:

"Both sides are the ports of Dajiang River. There are many logistics warehouses and terminal companies that stack containers at the ports. There are also shipbuilding companies on the left."

"This area is very big, more than ten kilometers long."

"Maybe it can be used as a temporary camp."

Lin Feng raised his eyebrows and nodded:

"Then let's go there first and have a look. Maybe we can find some usable cargo ships."

With the end of the great escape, except for the abandoned cars that ran out of gas, most of the vehicles were taken away, especially extremely important vehicles like ships, which were basically impossible to miss.

Even if there is, there will definitely be no oil left.

The reason why Lin Feng said this was mainly to find the bright spots in telepathy, suspected human survivors.

If they are really surviving humans, they can learn more about the situation on the other side of the river through these "locals".

If not, they can be solved in advance to prevent everyone's whereabouts from being leaked and the Queen Mother knowing in advance.

The parasitic mother body can directly contact the Zerg Mother Queen. We had already seen it last time in the center of Jiacheng City.

Now that there is no protection from the land cruiser, Lin Feng is fine. Even if he encounters dozens or hundreds of second-order Zerg, he can easily deal with it with the help of the Flying Tiger Armor and the electromagnetic gun.

But not the subordinates behind him.

Most of them are not even awakened ones.

Lin Feng didn't want to experience the dangerous situation he got into when he sneaked into downtown Jiacheng last time.

It is better to err on the side of caution to avoid making the same mistakes again.

Hearing Lin Feng's words, the other team members nodded, but Shen Jie was a little surprised.

In his impression, Lin Feng seemed to have never been afraid. With genetic assimilation, he could also vaguely sense the situation in the county through chemical pheromones in the air.

There was no aura of second-order worms coming from the front, and there were not even many first-order black spine worms, less than a thousand in number. The seven second-order awakened ones behind the two of them, armed with shotguns, could easily kill them.

There is no need for Lin Feng to take action against himself.

But now the Master Chief unexpectedly chose to move forward, leaving Shen Jie a little confused.

When the group sneaked off the bridge, Lin Feng saw Shen Jie who was deep in thought, turned around and explained:

"Without the help of the fleet, once the team is surrounded by layers of insects, it cannot be easily evacuated like Jiacheng last time. Although we can leave, the soldiers will definitely suffer heavy damage."

"And there are a large number of insect swarms nesting on the other side of the river, just across the river. Why haven't they expanded to Changcheng City on the other side after so long?"

"This is a bit too abnormal."

Shen Jie nodded, and soon he noticed something, raised his hand and pointed into the distance:

"There are traces of human activity here, fresh, just in the past few days."

Following the direction he pointed, everyone saw some leftover snack packages discarded outside the port fence.

There are also several footprints on the ground that have climbed over the wall, leading to the container group in the distance.

The corners of Lin Feng's mouth raised slightly and he looked at the people behind him:

"Everyone, dress up and cheer up. Don't let your guns go off."

Except for the second-level awakeners, the others are wearing red armor sent by the research institute. The item level is probably above lv7, which can withstand the attack of red beetles.

Although it cannot withstand the bite of the black spine insect's giant jaws, it is still extremely easy to defend against pistol and rifle bullets.

Lin Feng was mainly worried about them. He was nervous because he was going out for the first time, so he hurriedly killed the survivors by mistake.

After hearing the order, Shen Jie immediately stepped forward and used his arm blade to easily cut through the chopstick-thick steel wire isolation barrier, and everyone entered the dock company one after another.

In the distance, under the gantry crane, there are hundreds of containers of the same standard, but in different colors.

There are several trucks parked nearby, waiting for the gantry crane to place the goods behind them.

Further inside the terminal, there is a storage warehouse for cargo logistics, a temporary storage location for turnover.

Lin Feng fixed his gaze on a pile of black objects not far away, which was a coal mine.

Power plants, steel mills, and chemical plants everywhere require its combustion to provide kinetic energy.

Low-value items like coal generally only take rail freight routes, or large-volume and cheap shipping.

There are thousands of tons of coal piled up in the hill. Lin Feng naturally does not care about this. The real purpose of his concern is the metallurgical industry, which is closely related to the coal industry.

Coal and steel are basically transported together, not to mention the shipyard next door, both of which are raw materials for production.

The federal steel production is not low, but the demand side has decreased in recent years, and due to environmental protection requirements, production capacity is no longer expanded as much as it once was.

But many industries don’t just stop.

Some of the production that cannot be digested domestically will be exported to foreign countries through shipping, and they are all finished refined steel and special steel.

In addition to these, other goods in the container are also worth searching.

If you are lucky, you can get tons of grain, and it will be much smoother to receive and manage the more than 100,000 survivors in Jincheng in the future.

The conspicuous granaries in various places have basically been transported away and emptied. The docks that no one pays attention to may be the gold rush holy land in the end of the world.

When everyone followed Lin Feng's steps, entered the interior of the container group, passed through thousands of containers, and finally saw human figures in a logistics management building.

Without Lin Feng's telepathy and locking in advance, it would take a lot of effort to find this building with survivors on this huge dock.

In order not to cause panic, Lin Feng only called a few second-level awakeners to go together, and the rest of the large army was led by Shen Jie, hiding in the back and watching the changes.

As the few people walked out blatantly, the survivors who were patrolling in the management building immediately discovered the outsiders and quickly notified the other members.

When Lin Feng and his companions approached the gate, they saw several survivors holding pistols and shotguns and leaning against the gate. They asked nervously:

"Are you also the defenders of the Wucheng defense line that was defeated?"

Lin Feng frowned slightly and retorted:

"The Wucheng defense line was not breached, so how can it be said to be defeated? We came here to check the situation of the Jiangbei Zerg invasion."

"Are you the survivors here? Or the remnants of the Federation that have been scattered and hiding?"

The people behind the door looked at each other and saw Lin Feng and his companions, who were covered in war clothes. A, unlike ordinary soldiers, finally walked out slowly from among them, a middle-aged man in a blue uniform, holding a shotgun and speaking:

"We are refugees from the north. After the Zerg there expanded to the county town by the river, they did not take any more actions, nor did they cross the big river to enter Changcheng on the other side."

"So we set up a temporary camp here, collected dock supplies, and occasionally hunted Zerg swarms to accumulate strength."

Lin Feng nodded. The other party was wearing the uniform of a sheriff and was also a first-level early awakener.

After passing the identification, it was shown that he was just an ordinary human.

So Lin Feng put down his guard and asked:

"Why do you say we are the defeated army of Wucheng? Have you ever met people from the other side?"

After carefully observing the fine armor on Lin Feng and his men and the terrible weapons in their hands, the middle-aged man knew that he could not resist them, so he put down his weapons and introduced himself with a sigh:

"My name is Chen Hai. I used to be the captain of the security brigade of Taicheng. I have retired for many years."

"Are you here to find the patrol teams yesterday? But some of them are dead..."

"But this is the result of their own actions..."

Hearing the keyword "yesterday", Lin Feng's eyes condensed, thinking of something, and interrupted Chen Hai's explanation:

"The 13th Division stationed on the Wucheng defense line has withdrawn, and I have taken over the remaining The remnants, and the task of resisting the Zerg invasion..."

"I let those recruits who didn't want to stay leave on their own, just yesterday at noon."

"So the soldiers you met were not my soldiers, don't worry."

Hearing this, Chen Hai breathed a sigh of relief, and the whole person became energetic:

"That's good, that's good..."

Lin Feng looked up at the container group on the side:

"I need to collect some supplies, food and steel. In exchange, I can send you away from here and go to the safe rear Jincheng, or voluntarily join the team, with food and accommodation, and insecticide awakening."

Chen Hai swallowed his saliva, heard Lin Feng's careless tone, and the generous conditions offered. With the other party's absolute strength, it was not necessary to do so.

Then he whispered:

"Excuse me, what is your awakening strength?"

Lin Feng turned his head and raised the corners of his mouth slightly:

"I am a second-level awakener, and they are all."

Chen Hai took a breath of cold air. No wonder when he walked out just now, he couldn't feel a trace of breath depth on these people.

The other party cannot be just a strengthened person. If it is a first-level awakener, there is not such a big gap between the same level.

Hearing Lin Feng's answer, Chen Hai no longer hesitated:

"I hope you can send the survivors here, especially women and children, to a safe area. As for us, we want to follow you to fight."

Lin Feng nodded, and then asked:

"Is there a property management list before the end of the world?"

At this time, a second-level team member came forward, took out a pack of cigarettes from his arms, handed one to Chen Hai, and then waved behind him.

Shen Jie received the signal and led the large army to appear.

Seeing hundreds of fully armed soldiers appear, Chen Hai's hands and feet gradually became numb, and the cigarette between his fingers almost fell to the ground.

Then he was sweating profusely, and was afraid for a while.

Obviously, if he refused to cooperate just now,

what greeted him would not be a cigarette butt.

Taking a deep breath, Chen Hai quickly replied:

"Yes, yes! It's in the office on the second floor. I'll get it for you right away."

Following Chen Hai's steps, everyone entered the building.

On one side of the open space, a dozen young men in military uniforms were tied up and thrown on the ground.

They were covered in wounds on their bodies and faces, and their noses and faces were swollen and unconscious.

But a few faces that were recognizable could still be vaguely seen.

Lin Feng remembered that when they were dismissed yesterday, in addition to taking away the rifles, they were not allowed to take off the red armor they were issued.

Wearing red armor that can withstand bullets, they are still being taken care of by the survivor forces outside. It seems that the combat power of these new recruits is really low.

At this moment, many of them heard the noise and woke up. When they saw their former companions in the soldier company, they started calling for help.

At this time, Chen Hai walked over quickly, handed over the list, and explained angrily:

"This group of guys broke into the camp yesterday while we were out killing insects. At first, they pretended to be federal troops coming to the rescue. When they found out that there were no awakened people in the camp, they revealed their true nature, humiliated women, and even threatened to This establishes a new reign..."

"Fortunately, we came back early and killed a few of the reckless ones on the spot, thus bringing the situation under control."

Lin Feng nodded expressionlessly.

The eyes of the team members behind him, which were filled with sympathy from the beginning, turned cold.

Looking at the complicated numbers, Lin Feng pinched his eyebrows:

"Are there any terminal workers among you? For these lists, you need to find the corresponding containers."

Chen Hai shook his head:

"At the beginning, all the staff at the terminal followed the cargo ship or drove away by themselves, but in the past half month, after exploring, we have roughly figured it out."

"There is not much food here, only a dozen boxes. Three boxes are imported snacks, the other few boxes are soybeans, and some fruits are rotten."

"As for steel and other things, there is a dedicated freight railway at the dock in the west, and everything is under the management of another state-owned unit."

Lin Feng nodded and saw that the time was approaching noon, so he turned around and ordered:

"Let's all take a break and have some lunch. We'll have another big fight in the afternoon."

Shen Jie nodded and led everyone to rest where they were.

Chen Hai called several women who hid on the second floor, including eight or nine-year-old children:

"Normally, men are responsible for patrolling and going out to kill bugs, while women are responsible for the logistics. They have already identified the material numbers on the list and the corresponding container locations."

Lin Feng shrugged, handed the list to the woman, and asked:

"How many members do you have? Are there any ships nearby?"

Chen Hai hesitated for a moment:

"There are eighty-six people in total, of which 40 are men, and the rest are women and children. Most of them are family units. Because they have no fuel, they can only stay here."

"There were several ships, but the oil inside was taken away. We searched the docks and still collected hundreds of kilograms of diesel, but no one knew how to drive a cargo ship."

"So I plan to wait until the Zerg are ready to cross the river and attack before taking the risk of escaping. Now there is food and drink here, and I can kill the insects and become stronger and awaken..."

"So I'm not thinking about leaving for the time being."

"Originally, after what happened yesterday, I had plans to escape..."

Lin Feng shook his head and found that Chen Hai was a bit nagging, so he asked directly to the women:

"Have any of you been to the one next door? I need a guide who knows where the steel bars and steel frames are stacked."

One of the little girls with a dirty face mustered up the courage to stand up:

"I know, I've been there secretly before!"

Lin Feng showed a smile. The area of ​​the port in the west was several times that of this one, and it was more than ten kilometers long. It would take a lot of effort to find it.

The little girl in front of me exuded an aura, and she was the owner of the footprints outside the wire fence when she came.

"Where are your parents? Let them come with you."

Lin Feng asked lightly, but the little girl lowered her head and looked at the dark toes of her shoes without saying a word.

Chen Hai quickly explained:

"Chengcheng and her parents got lost while fleeing. We accidentally found her at the county security bureau when we went out to search for supplies."

Lin Feng sighed:

"May I have your name?"

The little girl whispered back:

"Jiang Chengcheng, eight years old, third grade of elementary school."

Lin Feng nodded and comforted:

"Your parents are definitely still alive. They may have arrived in Jincheng with the large army. Then you and Uncle Chen will look for them more."

"Now, please take us to find the steel, okay?"

Jiang Chengcheng wiped his eyes and nodded heavily.

Lin Feng immediately called over a dozen team members.

Go together.

After finding the steel, it was natural to use local materials to replicate a batch of shotguns for backup.

As for the rest, after marking them, the fleet will come to pick them up in the evening, and they will assemble a batch of replicas of the tanks and take all the survivors back together.

Lin Feng touched the girl's head and said calmly:

"Then let's go!"

Suddenly a reminder flashed before my eyes:

"Jiang Chengcheng, lv7/9"

"HP 35, Constitution 38, Spirit 45"

"Super Power Awakening: Danger Sense"
