Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus-Chapter 219 - 211: Hidden Supplies
Xin City, a gas station, a base city hidden at the edge of the forest.
A peaceful scene.
Due to the consistently high temperatures, working outdoors for long periods easily led to heatstroke, so Li Yu asked everyone to minimize going out.
To avoid the risk of heatstroke.
Everyone stayed at home, each busy with their tasks. In this environment, people relaxed and leisurely engaged in activities regularly organized at the base, as well as their own private gatherings and games.
The overall atmosphere in the base was good, with everyone becoming more familiar with each other and deepening their feelings for one another.
A person cannot be completely idle; whether busy or idle, one must learn to find joy, whether in work or life. As long as you desire, you can always find happiness; it requires an ordinary heart.
During this period, Li Yu still didn't abandon his training regimen. He got up at 6 a.m. every day for a morning run, rain or shine, and this motivated some others in the base, which sparked a trend of physical exercise.
At 6 a.m. or 6 p.m. in the evening, you could always see a group of people running, exercising, or doing farm work around the base.
Li Yu always believed in one thing: if a person's physical functions are sufficient, their mood will improve; if their mood is good, their character will be resilient; with a flawless character, their actions will turn out well.
Whether before or after the apocalypse, the body is the fundamental capital.
A healthy body infuses everything one does with energy and passion.
Everything happening inside the base felt like a utopia.
Outside the base, every place faced human tragedies.
The ground cracked, trees wilted.
Food was scarce, and everyone had a fierce look in their eyes, turning into beasts for food.
Civility and morality completely collapsed.
....
Speaking of Jiefang City.
Captain Lv and his team were heading toward the garage. There were many vehicles there; each time they went out to gather, they found some good vehicles and would drive them back if there was still gasoline.
The surrounding group eyed them tigerishly but dared not get any closer; the killing of Old Huang by Captain Lv earlier served as a warning.
Nobody wanted to be the next person shot dead, waiting for others to make the first move.
Surviving to this point in the apocalypse, no one was a fool.
Before long, Captain Lv and his team reached the garage, which was already chaotic. Captain Lv looked toward the two minivans at the back, pulled out his keys, and instructed his teammates to drive those vehicles over.
He glanced around and then walked toward a small door next to the garage.
Inside this door, which was always locked, there used to be an electricity room before the apocalypse. After the outbreak, it had been abandoned.
Captain Lv unlocked this door with his keys, brought out a few barrels of gasoline, and some supplies.
He had often thought, if Jiefang City became untenable, this was the backup plan he prepared for himself and his family.
Inside the garage, some cars had been driven away, but most lacked gasoline.
Often, Jiefang City had to use electricity and would consume diesel and gasoline for generators.
Since the apocalypse began, everyone had been like nomads, relocating periodically because staying in one place for too long meant local supplies would be found and exhausted.
They had stayed in Jiefang City, and the useful supplies around the area were mostly found and used up by them.
The crowd, seeing what Captain Lv took out, was puzzled but more surprised; having additional supplies during such a flight was crucial.
Rumble~
Two buses roared closer to the crowd, and everyone hurriedly boarded.
Together, there were 32 people in their party, easily accommodated by two mid-sized buses.
On the spare seats, they placed their belongings; though items could also be stowed on either side of the bus, in this post-apocalyptic world, precious food was safest kept close at hand.
Captain Lv looked at the two mid-sized buses, then glanced towards a truck nearby which they often used for collecting supplies but had recently stopped refueling. It was left unused.
Captain Lv thought for a moment and then said to Lao Xie standing behind him, "Lao Xie, go get that truck over here, and bring this barrel of oil."
Lao Xie nodded, called another teammate, and together they went to drive the truck over.
Captain Lv held a handgun in his left hand and a Long Knife in his right, vigilantly keeping an eye on a group of people 20 meters away.
He didn't want to kill anyone, but he couldn't help it if they attempted to stop them.
The families of their team had already boarded the two mid-sized buses.
Seeing this, Captain Lv called out to his teammates who were also on guard, "Hurry up and get on, we need to leave quickly."
Teammates hurriedly boarded the vehicles, leaving only a few armed with handguns behind.
Thunderously, the truck also arrived.
Captain Lv got on immediately, and then said to his teammates nearby, "When we break out, if anyone tries to block the car, kill them directly. Don't hold back."
During this critical moment, he couldn't afford any mishaps.
In fact, in Jiefang City, most of the maintenance personnel usually listened to Captain Lv, but somehow Director Zhang was always leading.
Everyone was extremely alert, believing that following Captain Lv was the key to survival.
Actually, in this apocalyptic world plagued with natural disasters, large groups weren't suitable for survival because massive numbers meant needing to sustain more people, placing great pressure on logistics.
The key was that in this chaotic end times, it was not only about guarding against zombies but occasionally surviving extreme weather, like this enduring drought season.
"Let's go!" Captain Lv boarded the truck and called out to the two buses behind.
Driving slowly towards the outskirts of Jiefang City.
Desperate refugees rushed forward, attempting to board the vehicle; some people thought it better to climb aboard and follow Captain Lv to seek new opportunities, considering the chaos staying here.
Seeing this, Captain Lv urgently ordered the vehicles to stop.
He got off then, along with a few teammates from the vehicles, and chased away the people trying to board.
Bang!

Seeing that the group showed no intention of leaving, Captain Lv fired his gun and killed one of them.
The group, seeing this, hurriedly fled from the vehicles.
Watching Captain Lv and his team from a distance.
"You guys drive; Lao Xie and I will figure out our next move after walking out."
Inside the garage, the speed of the vehicles was too slow, making it easy for them to be followed.
Thus, Captain Lv and a few escorted the vehicles slowly out.
Approaching the gate of Jiefeng City, the crowd gathered more and more.
Captain Lv gave a warning look to the people around and finally boarded the vehicle.
The vehicle quickly sped up and promptly escaped Jiefang City.
