Although they had to buy the food with points, as long as they worked hard, they wouldn’t starve. But if the base had no supplies, no matter how many points they had, they wouldn’t be able to buy anything.
Therefore, the matter of the base finding so many supplies was worth celebrating for everyone.
Early the next morning, the Phantom team woke up before dawn and did some exercises in their rooms before taking a shower and having breakfast together.
When the sun rose over the eastern horizon, Jin Xuyan stood at the floor-to-ceiling window and looked at the glistening lake in the distance. From the hotel they were staying at, it would take about half an hour to reach the lake.
But considering the road conditions and the zombies, it might take one or two hours to get there. After thinking through the plan for the next few days, he went to find his fiancée.
Opening the bedroom door, he saw her packing their backpacks with supplies, medicines, and crystal cores for emergencies. While he knew he would never be separated from her, he didn’t refuse her thoughtful intentions.
Hearing his footsteps, Jiao Lizhi turned and asked, "Brother Yan, are we leaving now?" fr eewe(b)nove.l.co\m
Jin Xuyan nodded and replied, "They have been waiting for us."
Picking up the backpack, he added, "Let’s go."
When they came out of their room, the members were already waiting for them in the corridor. Today, they went directly to the emergency stairs and didn’t bother with the trapped zombies in the rooms or other floors.
Jiao Lizhi took out their armored vehicles after they walked out of the hotel’s entrance. Since they had cleared the surrounding zombies yesterday, there were no scattered zombies spotted nearby.
As they drove toward the lake, Qin Luzi checked the map in his mind and said, "Captain, there are several groups of people hiding in this area. Two of the groups are ability-users."
Hearing this, Jin Xuyan said, "As long as they don’t bother us, just ignore them. Today, our goal is to check the lake and see if we can get some fish."
"Understood."
As their vehicles drove past the buildings, several groups of people watched them. They had noticed the Phantom team’s arrival yesterday and initially planned to rob their armored vehicles. But after witnessing them clear out more than 10,000 zombies without casualties, they changed their minds.
No one was foolish enough to challenge someone stronger than themselves. Not to mention, this group of people wasn’t just strong, their powers were similar to monsters.
Due to the road conditions, the Phantom team had to stop to clear abandoned cars blocking the road and fix potholes from past battles. When they finally reached the lake area, two hours had passed.
Seeing the entrance gate up ahead, Qin Luzi’s voice came through the walkie-talkie, "Captain, there are around 300 people in this area. Twenty-eight of them are ability-users, the rest are ordinary people."
Hearing this, Jin Xuyan thought for a moment before replying, "We will see if we can go to the lake. There is no need for unnecessary fighting."
