Lord of Illusions City
Chapter 95 General Lin
However, for Li Chenzhou, it was just a temporary means of transport. Besides, he didn't need to pay for gas now; the only difficulty was finding a gas station.
"Bang, bang!"
He reached out and patted the vehicle body. Listening to the dull sound, Li Chenzhou nodded in satisfaction. On the other side, Hairy Bear had also chosen the same urban armored vehicle. Although this type of vehicle wasn't equipped with weapons, its strength lay in its defense, which could completely withstand the attacks of enhanced zombies—level 1 types.
Under Hairy Bear's guidance, all the boxes he had chosen earlier were crammed into his vehicle, while Li Chenzhou, on his suggestion, carried a few barrels of fuel into the car. Anyway, it was just Duan Lei and a few others; there was plenty of space.
With everything prepared, Hairy Bear drove the vehicle in the lead, and Li Chenzhou followed behind. Luo Hong and the others returned to the previous computer to wait. In addition, Luo Hong also told people to drive the convoy over.
Since they had decided to use this place as a base for the time being, they naturally had to find a way to use those cars to build a simple wall to surround the six-story building.
In fact, apart from being far from a water source, this place was really not bad. At least, the six-story building, once cleaned, could completely accommodate everyone in the team. They didn't have to hide underground all the time; that was more for when they encountered danger, such as a zombie horde, to allow the elderly, children, and other non-combatants to take refuge.
As for the water source, although it was a bit far, as long as the surrounding zombies were cleared and safety was ensured, digging an aqueduct wouldn't be difficult.
After driving the car out of a hidden exit on the side of the road, Li Chenzhou and Hairy Bear both stopped their vehicles on the road. Then, Hairy Bear got out of the car and re-entered the underground base to open the permissions for Luo Hong. In this way, the underground base completely belonged to Luo Hong and the others.
Hairy Bear didn't care. Anyway, he had obtained enough weapons for his entire team, and, most importantly, he didn't know what the situation was with his captain.
"Brother Li! I will establish a base here, and my words still stand. Although all the permissions here are given to me, you are still the leader here. Whenever you come, I can immediately transfer all the permissions to you!"
Luo Hong came back with Hairy Bear. He looked at Li Chenzhou and said with a serious face.
…
Just then, behind Luo Hong's convoy, which stretched for nearly a kilometer, another convoy appeared. This convoy consisted of only twelve vehicles, with luxury cars in the front, three buses in the back, and a black sedan following behind the buses.
"Director Lin! There's a convoy ahead. What should we do?"
As soon as he saw Luo Hong's convoy, a man in a black suit in the passenger seat of the first vehicle took out a walkie-talkie and said into it.
"Convoy?"
A man with a dignified face sitting on the sofa in the second car frowned slightly.
He was about fifty years old, with a calm expression and no fear in his eyes. His hair was meticulously styled, and the handmade suit on his body was well-fitting and wrinkle-free. On the small table next to his sofa was a glass of amber-colored wine.
He didn't seem to be fleeing in the apocalypse at all, but enjoying a leisurely vacation!
"Who are the people in the convoy?"
The man pressed the button on the side of the intercom and asked.
"They are all ordinary people! I saw a few people with weapons in the last car. They are all cold weapons; no firearms were found!"
The voice from the intercom said:
"Director Lin, I think they should be survivors organized together to escape the city! But there are a lot of them; there are at least a hundred cars, almost endless!"
"Oh? It's not easy to organize such a large team!"
The man raised his eyebrows slightly, seemingly interested, and said softly:
"Let's incorporate them all. In this world, population is still important. I didn't want to waste ammunition to save people before, but since they have already escaped, let's take them in. Also, tell their leader to come and see me!"
"Yes!"
The intercom immediately replied, but hesitated for a moment before asking:
"Director Lin, since the population is important, then… what if they don't agree to be incorporated by us… what should we do?"
"What did we do before, then we'll do the same!"
The man picked up his glass, took a sip of wine, and said in a calm tone:
"I said the population is relatively important, but if we don't kill some people, how will they obediently listen? Especially in this world now, if I kill someone, I don't even have to dredge up relationships to smooth things over. What are you still worried about?"
"Understood!"
The intercom immediately replied, with a hint of excitement in his voice.
"This world… although it has made me lose a lot, but… I feel like I like it very much!"
Putting down his glass, the man leaned back on the sofa, looked at the roof, and murmured, a hint of a smile appearing on the corner of his mouth…
With Director Lin's order, the man in black in the first car immediately switched channels and said a few words into it. Immediately, four cars came out from behind, all surpassing the car where Director Lin was, and accelerated towards the convoy ahead!
At this time, the rear part of Luo Hong's convoy had not moved yet. Although the front had already begun to drive towards the war preparation area, and some people had even begun to enter the war preparation area, after all, it was such a long convoy, and it would take some time to drive all of it over.
"Xiaoshan! Looks like there's trouble!"
The last car in the team was a box truck. Seven or eight strong men were sitting in the carriage looking around. One of them looked at the cars suddenly accelerating towards them and said to a man next to him wearing a security uniform. This man was called Ding Xiaoshan, the security guard who had suddenly gone berserk in the mall before.
They had discovered Director Lin's convoy a long time ago, but after all, this was the road out of the city, and discovering a convoy wasn't unusual, so Ding Xiaoshan didn't report it.
But now, the convoy behind had changed. Ding Xiaoshan looked at the person who was talking to him, then picked up the walkie-talkie and said into it:
"There's a convoy behind us, and it doesn't seem… very friendly!"
After speaking, he put down the walkie-talkie, clenched the bat in his hand, and said to the people around him:
"Everyone get out of the car, all of you hide a little, I'll ask them what they want to do!"
Just as they jumped out of the carriage one after another, using the carriage to hide their bodies, the two cars in the front had already reached the rear of the truck, then stopped. Several men in black suits opened the doors and got out of the car, each holding a pistol in their hands, and shouted loudly at the truck:
"Where's your leader? Tell him to come over; Director Lin wants to talk to him!"
