The Otaku squad’s outing was an absolute success with various flagship stores selling a variety of digital products near their area. Almost all the apocalypse survivors had no interest in these things. After the end, they grabbed food, water, clothes and so on. After the base was settled, they had solar panels that could provide electricity, the few people at the top could enjoy these things.
Other than so shops that were destroyed by zombies and other damage, Luo Xun and the others would have a rich harvest after finding remaining warehouses.
Li Tie’s group had a tech filled ho before the end, so this destination was very familiar. They would often co to this neighborhood. On one hand it was related to their hobbies, on the other many graduates from their school worked as programrs in the nearby office building. They had spoken with alumni and got a goal and direction.
The result of the harvest was that Yan Fei added a car to the trucks loaded with all their things before hitting the road back ho.
Luo Xun chatted with Yan Fei in a good mood. "We won’t have to co out and find these sorts of things for the next few years! But we need to think of sothing for furniture, otherwise you’ll have to make them. And stuffing used in things like pillows would be sowhat difficult."
Yan Fei had no opinion, he just smiled and adjusted the baby’s posture. "I just rose to level five so I can rely on the ability to find more materials. For furniture..." He mused, "Didn’t Li Tie mark a few places where they might be supplies? There must be a furniture store marked near our base."
"There are." Luo Xun nodded. "There are several but don’t forget that a large area was bombed at the start of the apocalypse? So furniture malls were in that area. There is the possibility of encountering a large number of zombies..." But it is better in the southern part of the city. Far fewer people head south searching for supplies compared to north and east."
This point was from their previous trips. Their new base is located further south than the other base. In order to find tal, wood and other things they ca out many tis but rarely encountered any base teams.
But this ti on the way north, they saw so vehicles almost everyday. Even yesterday when they were collecting things from the electronics mall, they aw a convoy of cars rush past. These two days they found so other shops but without exception all were empty, the only thing left were these electronics that could not be eaten.
"Well, we can look south, aren’t there any other cities? The roads seem to be in good condition according to the satellite. The baby grabbed Yan Fei’s finger and started to suckle, he seed hungry.
"If it’s not safe, I can use tal." He wanted to practice with his powers anyway.
Furniture matters were temporarily put aside, there was enough at ho for the ti being. They wanted to collect this kind of thing to improve the quality of life, but it was not absolutely required. So once the place was picked, they moved forward.
It took two days to find enough supplies to fill up all the space in the car. In the evening Luo Xun’s team was ready to find a resting place but instead found a team parked on the roadside cooking on a fire.
"Leader, there’s a team in front, what should we do?" They had spent the previous night and there were no zombies in the area. This ti they wanted to spend another night but did not expect a team.
Luo Xun raised his telescope, "Don’t worry about them. Let’s overnight at this intersection and have watch rotations at night."
During the apocalypse, people who went out on missions avoided each other for two reasons – fear of being robbed and grudges. But they also hoped that if there was a sudden attack, the zombies would attack the other team first, giving a chance to get away.
So while they needed to be more cautious, they did not have much to be concerned about.
Sure enough, seeing that Luo Xun were camping a distance away, the other team did not send people to investigate the situation. But with a quick check, seeing that Luo Xun’s group seed to be large, they breathed a sigh of relief.
Luo Xun got off the var and did not directly find a roadside house, but instead had Yan Fei make a small tal house under the cover of their vehicles.
Because the other team was not far away, they deliberately set observation windows and two hour shifts. The team would have their weapons nearby in case of any accident.
At two in the morning, the two won woke up Luo Xun and Yan Fei for their shift. The forr closed their eyes and fell asleep not long after snuggling under the covers.
Luo Xun held back his yawn and looked outside. From the gap they could see the other side had people around the fire on watch. From ti to ti they would turn towards their group, apparently worried that the other would take action at night.
"It should be all right." Luo Xun kneaded his eyes and washed his face with water to reinvigorate himself.
"They can’t see the situation here and I have set up a detection net." Yan Fei patted Luo Xun on the shoulder and whispered, "You can sleep longer."
Luo Xun shook his head, "No, the watch is only two hours and then we can go to bed."
Yan Fei used a similar net sh as he had done of the southwest base roof. But now that his level increased, the tal sh was thinner than hair. More amazing was that the surface would not be reflected.
Their campsite was covered with objects within a ten ter radius. The tal sh was erected on the periphery and surrounded their location.
In this way, no matter what approached Yan Fei would find the problem straight away.
This thod was sothing he was going to add to their secret entrance. That way if soone approached, he would spot them.
Thinking of that, Yan Fei realized he had nodded off and turned to look at the trucks. There were so many caras but these could only judge the surface situation.
The two n whispered from ti to ti, looking at the outside. There were people walking around the other fire, as if changing shifts.
Luo Xun confird that the new people did not notice them. He whispered to Yan Fei about how they should arrange their rooms at ho. Suddenly there was a flash.
At first, he thought it was soone with a flashlight but after there was a faint sound. "It’s going to rain?"
Right? Sumr is coming, are thunderstorms not normal?
This year since the beginning of spring, there were only a few scattered instances of rain but nothing heavy, Now with this thunder and lightning, there was the feeling of sumr.
"It’s raining...fortunately we’ve finished packing things." Luo Xun smiled at Yan Fei. "Those shopping malls are not too damaged other than the glass. We might find many good things."
A lot of things they got back this ti were found in the basent and other places. In case of water damage, who knows what things they would find later.
Yan Fei imdiately raised his hand and sealed the roof – the solar panels were mounted on top of their car.
As for the panels at ho? Luo Xun cleverly put the panels inside glass with a layer of tal on the outside so heavy rainfall was not a problem.
