Chapter 220 Infrastructure
Chapter 220 Infrastructure
The Nomadic Senne is much more comfortable than the simple house.
Su Chen usually lives in the car, instead of either squeezing into a makeshift house or sleeping in a tent like the other survivors.
However, he still asked Yue Yixiang and others to set up a tent for him so that he could discuss matters with everyone.
Inside the tent.
Yue Yixiang lit the firewood in the fireplace, and then poured Su Chen a cup of hot water.
As the firewood burned, the tent became much warmer.
"I called you here today to ask about the situation at the camp."
Su Chen drank a cup of hot water and said slowly.
"The makeshift houses that have been built in the last few days are enough to live in."
"Our gang members no longer need to endure hunger and cold."
"I discussed it with Brother Yu, and we plan to start tomorrow by organizing people to excavate the island in the middle of the lake."
Yue Yixiang reported.
Although the makeshift houses were enough for the members of the Fierce Tiger Gang to live in.
But Su Chen's target was still the island in the middle of the lake.
After all, it has a geographical advantage, and if it is developed well, it can become a solid base for survivors.
"Very good, then thank you for your hard work."
Su Chen's gaze then turned to Sun Yuan.
"Have there been any unusual movements from the zombies in the city these past few days?"
"Reporting to Boss Su, no!"
Sun Yuan shook his head.
After Su Chen killed the dwarf zombie, the zombie horde, having lost its leader, slowly dispersed.
In the past few days, Sun Yuan has led his men to the city center several times.
One reason was to gather information about the zombies.
Secondly, they also searched for supplies and, incidentally, hunted zombies to obtain energy crystals.
"That's good."
Su Chen nodded and said in a deep voice to Shoujing and Yue Yixiang,
"You guys need to hurry up and clear out the island in the middle of the lake so that we can build a new base."
Based on intelligence obtained from the underground base.
After the blizzard and extreme cold, comes the fog and monsters.
Now the snow is gradually melting and the weather is slowly warming up.
If the weather is like the previous apocalyptic events, then the next apocalypse will likely arrive very quickly.
The Tiger Gang's current rudimentary camp can't even withstand a horde of zombies.
How could they possibly defend against terrifying monsters?
"Yes!"
Yu Shoujing and Yue Yixiang dared not delay and quickly nodded in agreement.
After chatting for a while, everyone got up and left.
"Brother Yuan, Jiancheng, wait a minute!"
Su Chen suddenly spoke up, calling out to the brothers Sun Yuan and Sun Jiancheng.
"What's wrong, Brother Su?"
Sun Yuan sat back down, grinning.
"I'm thinking about how to get bullets."
Su Chen said slowly.
"bullet?"
Sun Yuan and Sun Jiancheng were slightly taken aback, but then they understood Su Chen's intention.
When fighting zombies, a gun is definitely more effective than a knife.
After all, a gun is faster when it's ten paces away, and more accurate and faster when it's within ten paces.
The last time we were attacked by a zombie horde.
The reason why the Tiger Gang suffered heavy losses was not only because of the large number of zombies, but also because there were many mutated zombies in the horde.
Furthermore, it's because the gang has too few firearms!
If the members of the Fierce Tiger Gang each carried a rifle.
Even if the number of mutated zombies attacking doubled, the Tiger Gang would not fall so easily.
After all, zombies are, in essence, carbon-based life forms.
Unless they are all like that giant zombie, invulnerable to swords and bullets.
Otherwise, wouldn't we be doomed facing thousands of rifles?
Previously, Su Chen obtained a total of two hundred rifles from the underground base.
This number doesn't seem like much.
However, it should be noted that the underground base was not a real military base; it was built solely for testing purposes.
Soldiers like Dang Haoran were merely there for vigilance.
If any special circumstances arise, they will definitely request support from their superiors.
Su Chen planned to select some more reliable people and distribute all the rifles he had.
The problem is, he only has a little over 10,000 bullets left.
Each person received only two magazines.
If another zombie horde attacks, it won't even be enough for two rounds of shooting.
If a survivor base is indeed built on the island in the middle of the lake, it will be necessary to acquire more bullets to enhance the base's combat capabilities.
"Bullets... I really don't know where to get them."
Sun Yuan smiled wryly.
Before the apocalypse, firearms and ammunition were under extremely strict control.
Ordinary people have no chance of getting in touch with this, so Sun Yuan naturally didn't know how.
"Um... actually, I do know!"
Sun Jiancheng suddenly raised his hand and said weakly.
Su Chen was slightly taken aback, then remembered that Sun Jiancheng had returned from military service.
"Jiancheng, tell me about it quickly."
"Boss Su, as you know, I'm quite interested in cold weapons."
Sun Jiancheng smiled and said,
“When I was in the army, I went to an arsenal and stayed there for a while.”
Before the apocalypse, all of this was top secret, and Sun Jiancheng certainly wouldn't reveal it carelessly.
But now that the end of the world has arrived, there's nothing to hide.
Sun Jiancheng then recounted everything he knew in detail.
To the north of Shannan City lies another city, Xinlu.
The arsenal he had visited was located on the outskirts of Xinlu.
However, that arsenal was not advanced; it could only produce weapons such as guns, bullets, and grenades.
That arsenal did not produce powerful weapons such as rocket launchers and missiles.
But for Su Chen, this was enough.
If the Fierce Tiger Gang could equip each member with a gun and have an unlimited supply of ammunition.
Even if another zombie horde comes, Su Chen is confident he can hold out!
Su Chen questioned Sun Jiancheng carefully and noted down the exact location.
"Brother Su, why don't we go with you? It'll be good to have someone to look after you on the way."
Sun Yuan suggested.
"Yes, Boss Su, please take us with you!"
Sun Jiancheng was also looking at Su Chen with longing eyes.
He knew very well that as long as he followed Su Chen, he would not be treated unfairly.
Putting aside other things, his cousin Sun Yuan is now a beginner-level evolver.
Although Sun Jiancheng has also become an evolved being, he has to stay in the base forever, and it will be a long time before he can advance.
Su Chen initially wanted to refuse them, but then she thought about it again.
I'm not familiar with Xinlu City, and I've only heard about it from Sun Jiancheng. If I actually went there, I probably wouldn't be able to find the place.
He pondered for a moment, then nodded.
“If I’m going, Jiancheng, you’ll come with me.”
"Brother Yuan...you should stay!"
It's not that Su Chen has a problem with Sun Yuan.
Regardless of whether it's the island in the middle of the lake or the underground base, Sun Yuan has the highest combat strength and is also the leader of the guard team.
Su Chen wanted him to stay and oversee things.
"Alright! I'll do whatever you say, Brother Su!"
Sun Yuan was somewhat disappointed, but he still agreed.
……
Su Chen was not in a hurry to go to Xinlu City.
After all, the reclamation of this island in the middle of the lake still needs his help.
Su Chen went to great lengths to melt the snow quickly.
They not only provided a large quantity of gasoline, but also retrieved all the excavators they had found.
