Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus

It might even be possible to walk back to the Big Camphor Tree Base.

He could imagine how many obstacles the four of them overcame on their way back to the Big Camphor Tree Base.

Chen Delong stuffed the candy in his hand into his pocket and said: ”Just before the torrential rain started, we......”

Li Yu saw him put the candy into his pocket and understood in his heart.

Knowing he was reluctant to eat it and wanted to save it for tough times.

After all, it’s a piece of candy that can supply a substantial amount of energy.

In some special circumstances, it can even save lives.

Especially in cold weather, a piece of candy can quickly provide energy to the body.

Li Yu understands him well because he has experienced it before.

Feeling touched, he gave Chen Delong the remaining six or seven candies from his pocket.

Taking one for himself, he tore open the candy wrapper and stuffed the candy into his mouth.

”Eat one now,” Li Yu said with a commanding tone.

Chen Delong was speechless with emotion as he held the candies.

”This, this, how could...”

”Enough with the nonsense, hurry up. I want to hear the details,” Li Yu said.

Chen Delong had no choice but to put the candies back into his pocket, carefully tearing open one.

Candies are good things in Doomsday.

Putting the candy in his mouth.

A rich and familiar taste.

Sweet, with a fruity aroma.

Sweeter than sweet.

Sweet to the core, yet as he recalled the zombies charging at them during the downpour, he felt indescribably bitter.

From a team of dozens, only four remained.

He witnessed A Fei being torn apart by zombies, saw Old Gong crash the car into the Zombie Tide to protect them.

The bitterness in his heart, along with the sweetness in his mouth.

The sweetness from the candy seemed to slightly dilute the bitterness within.

At that moment, he understood the purpose of Li Yu’s gesture:

Knowing you’re bitter; I understand you. Have a piece of candy.

So he spoke:

”When the rain poured down, we intended to find a place to hide, but zombies were everywhere. Later, we thought about going into the mountains, but then got surrounded by zombies...”

”We ran in the deep mountains for a long time, with torrential rain pouring down. The zombies kept chasing, and our companions dwindled. Then after running for who knows how long, we realized there were no zombies behind us....”

Li Yu asked: ”Then how did you guys manage to avoid the rain, with this heavy rain and cold weather.....”

Chen Delong gratefully clasped his hands together and said,

”Thanks to that small hut in the mountains, it was very small and was initially built temporarily by pine oil workers, even the door had fallen.

But at least it sheltered us from the rain, and we found several barrels of pine oil inside, which we used to burn for warmth.

Also found a piece of ten-year-old cured meat, which we ate for a long time, caught a squirrel, combined with the food we had, we mostly lay down to conserve energy and physical strength.

We endured until the end.

The luckiest part was that during that month, there were almost no zombie attacks on us.....

In the front driving seat, Jackals also listened to Chen Delong’s story.

Feeling some emotion.

How similar.

Back then, before coming to the Big Camphor Tree Base, he and Xiao Yong also faced torrential rain and floods during a natural disaster and ascended Sanqing Mountain.

Found an abandoned shack halfway up the mountain, where in the storeroom of the little shop, they found food.

It’s perhaps a gift from Heaven.

....

During their conversation, they kept watching through the helicopter windows.

Observing the situation on the ground.

Radiation zombies are easily identified, especially at night.

In this dark apocalypse, without vehicles or lights.

The glowing radiation zombies are like moving giant bulbs, extraordinarily conspicuous.

Li Yu’s helicopter was flying along National Highway 318; after flying for over an hour, they hadn’t seen a zombie shadow.

The helicopter’s speed is 300 km/h, definitely faster than the zombies’ movement pace.

Seeing this, Li Yu quickly said: ”Switch to check National Highway 203.”

Suddenly.

The military radio in the helicopter broadcasted.

”Calling Jackals, calling Jackals, this is Ant, we’ve discovered radiation zombies on National Highway 528, come quickly and join us.”

It was the voice from another helicopter, Ant’s.

Jackals quickly picked up and responded: ”Received, I’ll come over based on your location.”

Then turned back and said to Li Yu: ”City Lord, Ant and their team have already found radiation zombies, estimated to be less than 100 kilometers from us, we can be there in twenty minutes.”

”Alright, go and meet up with them,” Li Yu said.

Jackals then maneuvered the helicopter towards the position of another helicopter.

Li Yu thought for a moment and asked: ”How far is Ant’s position from Big Camphor Tree?”

Jackals glanced at the dashboard, made a simple estimation, and said: ”About 80 kilometers in a straight line.”

”So close!” Li Yu exclaimed.

Their helicopter was conducting a vertical search, while Ant’s was doing a horizontal search.

At 80 kilometers, at zombies’ walking speed, unless they keep moving, they’d reach near Big Camphor Tree Base by tomorrow if heading south from National Highway 318.

Dangerous!

Li Yu looked at Chen Delong behind him and said: ”You guys did an excellent job this time!”

Hearing Li Yu’s words, Chen Delong thought to himself: The extra staff position is secured!

Twenty minutes later.

Sure enough, they saw on the ground, a peculiar blue-green snake-like trail winding through the forest.

Lowering the helicopter’s altitude, they could see luminous radiation zombies below.

These zombies emitted strange light all over, illuminating the surrounding trees.

And in front of the zombies, hovered a helicopter above.

Dapao had already prepared to hang a hefty blood-soaked pig outside the cabin.

The strong scent of blood combined with the loud helicopter noise attracted the radiation zombies.

The radiation zombies below roared, raising their arms, as if worshiping, walking towards that helicopter.

”Ant, this is Jackals, we’ve arrived and are now behind you.”

”Received, we found these zombies on National Highway 528. According to the prior plan, we’ll now lure them onto Highway 72,” Ant said.

Li Yu asked Jackals: ”How long can the helicopter sustain flight?”

”An hour and a half should be fine,” Jackals replied.

Li Yu thought for a moment and said: ”Then let’s quickly find a suitable spot to lure those zombies over, or we’ll need to hurry back to the base to refuel.”

Jackals nodded and said: ”Rest assured, Director Li, we’re less than a hundred kilometers from the base, it won’t take more than twenty-five minutes. I’ll ensure there’s enough fuel for the return.”

”Good, as long as you’re confident,” Li Yu said.

Then Jackals said to Ant: ”Ant, keep your current speed and lure them onto Highway 72. We’ll scout ahead and see if there’s a temporary spot to lure them.”

”Received.”

Jackals then accelerated the helicopter and flew ahead.

To better see the ground, he switched on the helicopter’s spotlight.

After flying less than five minutes, Li Yu spotted a gas station at Highway 72 exit.

Quickly told Jackals: ”Gas station, land the helicopter on the roof of the gas station.”
