Lord of Illusions City
Chapter 87 War Preparation Depot
Looking at Gray Bear, Li Chenzhou said:
"I know you think I'm stalling for time, right? But in fact, this way of advancing is to leave room for retreat!"
"Retreat?"
Gray Bear couldn't help but look back at the road they had come from.
"Yes! I told you, the city will be the zombies' domain. You can never know how many zombies are hiding in these buildings, nor do you know if there are zombie kings or other enhanced zombies."
Li Chenzhou pointed to a residential complex on the right front:
"Like the zombie king that surrounded the Qin Ting Hotel, it appeared suddenly. If we go at full speed, we won't know if there are any powerful mutated creatures hiding on the road we pass.
"And once we encounter an accident, such as a large group of zombies or powerful mutated beasts, and need to evacuate immediately, those guys hiding on the side of the road may suddenly rush out and block our way!
"So, I want to use gunshots to test if there is anything special on the road we pass. Although this method isn't that foolproof, it's the best we can do at the moment!
"You know, if it weren't for the Qin Ting Hotel incident, I would have chosen to clean up this urban village first, make sure the village is safe, and then start cleaning up the next area, so I can ensure that my rear is always safe and there won't be any accidents!"
"..."
Hearing Li Chenzhou's words, Gray Bear finally fell silent. He knew that Li Chenzhou's statement was correct, and he had now figured it out. Just like when he saw those survivors before, he didn't think about asking Li Chenzhou to go deep, just like he said, to clear out this urban village.
This wasn't very difficult for Li Chenzhou, but it was of great significance to the survivors in the urban village, because it meant that they could all be rescued today!
But because of the Qin Ting Hotel, the captain and the others were still trapped there. For Gray Bear, the lives of the captain and the others were obviously more important, so he didn't have any objections to Li Chenzhou just killing zombies along the way.
And similarly, the captain and the others might not be that important to Li Chenzhou, at least not as important as Li Chenzhou's own life, and Duan Lei's.
So, after thinking from another person's perspective, especially when Li Chenzhou had clearly explained the source of the danger, Gray Bear couldn't ask Li Chenzhou and the others to risk going at full speed for the captain's life...
This was the changed human heart, Gray Bear seemed to understand a little.
Duan Xue was very quiet because her arms now held two children, one large and one small. The larger one was still in a coma, and the smaller one was also asleep. This made Duan Xue very strange, because before, their car was very close to Li Chenzhou, and the gunshots had been ringing, but the child was still able to sleep very peacefully.
"You are very lucky, and it seems that you are also very adapted to this world, it's just... I don't know if you will have the chance to grow up!"
Looking at the little guy's cute little face, Duan Xue suddenly sighed and murmured.
In fact, even she didn't know whether Li Chenzhou's rescue of this child was just a whim or something, but she understood that when a crisis came, according to Li Chenzhou's character, he would definitely prioritize his own escape.
This was also why Duan Xue had taken the initiative to join the battle before. She knew that Li Chenzhou would not bring a burden, so she had to prove her worth, even with Duan Lei. She didn't want to affect Duan Lei because of herself.
Duan Lei was now able to stand up, which was a huge surprise for Duan Xue. In addition, Duan Lei's performance during this period, although it made Duan Xue feel a little strange, she was clear that this change was undoubtedly the best for Duan Lei, indicating that he had adapted to this world.
"Let's go! Continue!"
Seeing Gray Bear walk back to the car where Duan Xue was, Li Chenzhou patted the roof of the car again and said to Duan Lei inside. Duan Lei immediately started the car and continued to move forward according to Li Chenzhou's route.
The street was much wider, but for Li Chenzhou and the others, it was more difficult to walk, because there were more cars on the road, and some sections were simply blocked by several cars that had crashed together.
With the strength of Li Chenzhou and Duan Lei, moving these cars was not a problem, but it took too much time, so Li Chenzhou had to temporarily change the route and detour from other streets.
Changing the route didn't matter to Li Chenzhou, because like he said before, what he wanted now was a relatively safe retreat, as for whether this road was straight or had to make a few turns, it didn't matter much.
However, when passing by a construction site, Li Chenzhou suddenly saw the dump trucks and cement mixers parked there, and his eyes lit up. This kind of big guy would be quite good for clearing the way.
"Xiao Lei, go drive your sister's car, Gray Bear and I will get a big guy back!"
Li Chenzhou immediately asked Duan Lei to stop the car, then jumped out and waved to Gray Bear behind him.
"Changing to a big car?"
Gray Bear saw Li Chenzhou's gaze and understood what he meant, so he got out of the car and asked.
"Yes! With this big guy, we can directly crash the cars on the road! You have no problem driving this, right?"
Li Chenzhou nodded and asked.
"Of course, driving is no problem, but... I suggest we go there first!"
Gray Bear looked at the big car over there, then looked back at a six-story building about a hundred meters away, and suddenly pointed to that building.
"There?"
Li Chenzhou turned his head and looked over, it was just an ordinary six-story building, it was impossible to tell whether it was a residence or something, so he asked:
"What is that place?"
"That is..."
Gray Bear looked at that building, hesitated for a moment, and finally said:
"That is the Third Reserve Warehouse, this is the external name. In name, it is used to store food and other strategic materials, but internally, we call it the Special Task Force Preparedness Office!"
"Special Task Force..."
Li Chenzhou looked at Gray Bear:
"That is to say, there will be weapons there?"
"Yes, there are all kinds of urban counter-terrorism weapons, bulletproof vests, sniper rifles, assault rifles, hand grenades, RPGs, etc.!"
Gray Bear looked at Li Chenzhou, his eyes unintentionally drifted to his pistol:
"In addition, there will also be military vehicles such as land armor, and there may even be helicopters!"
"Helicopter? Can you fly one?"
Li Chenzhou couldn't help but be stunned!
"Of course!"
Gray Bear replied.
"Okay! Then go..."
Li Chenzhou immediately changed his mind and nodded, but before he could finish speaking, he suddenly saw a black shadow rushing towards Gray Bear like lightning, and immediately shouted:
"Get down!"
The black shadow was pouncing from behind Gray Bear, so Gray Bear didn't notice it at all, but after hearing Li Chenzhou's shout, he still reflexively lay down as quickly as possible...
