Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus

Chapter 1229: Chapter 756: Return [Two Chapters Combined, Requesting Monthly Ticket]

4:30 PM, twilight.

Li Yu and the others have been traveling for nearly two hours since leaving the Western Alliance.

The road was not easy to travel on due to the hitched vehicles and somewhat slippery ground. The convoy traveled for nearly two hours, covering just under 100 kilometers.

At least, they had left the boundaries of Cheng City, which, after the Doomsday, became one of the cities with the densest population of zombies.

During the Doomsday, almost everyone could drive. With no traffic rules or concerns, and most vehicles being automatic, driving became incredibly simple.

All you needed was to learn how to start the car, brake, press the gas, and after a few laps, and a few crashes, you’d get the hang of it. Appearance wasn’t a concern...

Li Yu was driving the Unimog at the front, and on highway G5013, you could still see water stains on the ground.

Dapao and the others followed closely behind, chatting while driving.

”Brother Yu, I just checked the map; there’s a Liu Family village 20 kilometers away. Maybe we can camp there tonight,” Dapao’s voice came through the walkie-talkie.

Li Yu controlled the vehicle with his left hand, and with his right hand, he tapped on the iPad in the center, entered Liu Family village, and assessed that it would take about half an hour to get there.

He then said, ”Alright, let’s take a look.”

They continued to chat over the walkie-talkie while driving, and soon half an hour had passed unnoticed.

They quickly reached the ramp exit, but while getting off the ramp, Li Yu checked the map and saw the highway interchange up ahead, at least thirty meters above the ground.

Li Yu thought for a moment and said, ”The Liu Family village is right after the ramp exit, but I see many residential buildings below, which means more zombies. I think we should camp on the elevated highway ahead.”

Camping on elevated highways was not new to them.

There are several advantages to camping on an elevated highway.

The first is the elevation from the ground, with only a few support pillars between; even if it rains, zombies can’t climb up and can only approach from the highway’s sides.

Secondly, the entrance on the elevated highway is narrow. Even if zombies come at night, they only need to deal with those at the entrances on both sides. If it rains, they could even use C4 explosives to blow up one of the entrances.

Moreover, the interlocking highway network provides them more buffer space.

If it doesn’t rain, they just need to block the highway entrances with some abandoned vehicles before nightfall to sleep peacefully.

Li Yu’s proposal won the approval of Li Tie and the others. They decided not to exit to Liu Family village and continued to the elevated interchange.

Ten minutes later, they reached the highest point of the highway.

The highest part of the highway is more than thirty meters from the ground. Li Yu opened the car door, stepped out, and after surveying the surroundings without noticing any zombies, he removed his helmet and took a deep breath.

Wearing a full-face helmet can protect the entire head, but it’s easy to feel stuffy after prolonged use.

The dim, yellow sunset illuminated the deserted residential buildings. The peeling walls and plants growing on them, coupled with the creaking iron doors swaying in the wind, evoked an uncontrollable sense of desolation.

In the other direction of the overpass was a green belt, a large area with lush greenery and flourishing vegetation.

Dapao and the others disembarked as well. After seeing them get off, Li Yu said to Dapao and Li Gang, ”Dapao, Gangzi, go and move those abandoned cars to block the road ahead and behind us.”

After hearing Li Yu’s order, the two got out of the car, untied the towing rope from the trailer, and drove a car over.

After all, relying on manpower alone would make it very difficult to move those abandoned cars, so they could only use the available cars to tow them, especially the larger ones.

Yang Tianlong and Li Tie went to help as well, while Li Yu launched a drone into the sky, controlling it to circle around the area twice.

About four hundred meters away from them was a lake, but no animals were present. During the Doomsday, birds seemed to know the dangers lurking in lakes and rivers, always drinking cautiously.

As twilight approached, the sky darkened quickly.

Forty minutes later, the sun was halfway behind the mountains, about to set.

Now in early summer, sunset came later than before.

”All done,” Dapao and Li Tie, sweating profusely, came over to Li Yu and said.

Li Yu glanced at them and said, ”Alright, grab something to eat. Let’s rest early tonight and set off early tomorrow.”

After speaking, he continued looking at the screen of his drone, controlling it to fly back to the elevated highway.

A few minutes later, accompanied by the buzzing sound of the drone overhead, Yang Tianlong and Li Gang finished blocking the northern side as well.

This wasn’t their first time doing this, so they had some experience.

Setting up obstacles on an elevated highway involved using abandoned cars on the road. First, you could drag some small cars about a hundred meters away, as this was relatively easy. It was best to use several small cars for increased protection.

Then find a few larger vehicles and pull them closer to their location, followed lastly by their own vehicles.
