Chapter 401: Chapter 401: Zhang Chuyang Since the Apocalypse
Originally, Zhang Chuyang developed a high fever on the second day of the Apocalypse, but his awakening went smoothly.
During the initial days, phone calls were still possible, and the only people he knew in G Province were a few colleagues from work.
Fortunately, his immediate boss, Wang Zhu, hadn’t turned into a zombie, and along with a few other colleagues who were temporarily unharmed, they could find some comfort in each other.
After more than a week, Wang Zhu realized something was wrong and, under his strong recommendation, they managed to gather together, despite some casualties along the way, and successfully met up with him.
Afterward, Wang Zhu suggested that they gather supplies and find a less populated area to hide.
The events that followed proved Wang Zhu’s decision was right; the residential area where they had been staying almost entirely turned into a zombie nest with no survivors…

“Thanks to the supermarket goods you left, Su Jin, I later thought of that place and took Brother Wang and Sister Linda to hide there,”
Zhang Chuyang said, his expression becoming nostalgic.
At that time, they still believed there was hope, as long as they could survive this period, they would surely see the light of day again.
So, the group hid day after day in that warehouse full of food and drink, and the goods Su Jin left were sufficiently comprehensive, even including a cassette stove and pots and pans.
But unexpectedly, the situation in the Apocalypse worsened day by day, and later, the radio stations in G Province began advising people to kill zombies. Under Wang Zhu’s leadership, they also honed their skills in killing zombies.
“What about Wang Zhu and Linda? Are they not with you?” Su Jin asked curiously.
“Brother Wang is with me. It’s a long story, but Sister Linda, she…”
Zhang Chuyang’s expression turned angry as if recalling something unpleasant.
Wang Linda was used as a human shield by her cousin, Wei Xiaoyan, and got bitten by a zombie.
“… ”
So it was still Wei Xiaoyan, huh? Unthinkable that she would even harm her own cousin.
“What happened afterward?” Su Jin asked again.
“Afterward, Brother Wang and everyone were very angry, so they drove Wei Xiaoyan out of the team; nobody wanted to be with her anymore,”
Zhang Chuyang recalled; actually, Sister Linda was very good. Although she was somewhat domineering due to her age, she also taught them some life skills.
Nobody expected that when faced with a zombie lunging at her, Wei Xiaoyan would suddenly hide behind Sister Linda, causing the zombie to bite the front-running Wang Linda…
Sigh, Su Jin sighed. It turns out that his colleagues from G Province had also gathered together.
“What about Wang Zhu? Why did you all end up here?”
Su Jin remembered that G Province wasn’t very close to this place.
“Ah, that’s because my hometown is here, and Brother Wang said his wife was working in S city before the Apocalypse, so he wanted to find her, but…”
Zhang Chuyang showed a sad expression; he searched all the nearby villages and Freedom Dawn Base but didn’t find any trace of his family.
Thinking about it, his parents, although still quite mobile, were elderly after all. With the Apocalypse having gone on for so long, it was almost impossible for them to have survived, and they were planning to go to S city next.
Although he wasn’t sure if they could find the person Wang Zhu was looking for, he now really had nowhere else to go…
Upon learning that Wang Zhu was nearby and that their destinations were the same, Su Jin decided to let Zhang Chuyang and his companion follow them.
Zhang Chuyang had not expected that Su Jin and his group were also heading to the S City base. He also didn’t know there was a base in S City. It seemed that Brother Wang might have hope of finding his wife now.
By then, everyone had cleaned up. Su Jin looked at the two badly damaged vehicles. The tires on Dr. Pei and his group’s vehicle had even burst…
The SUV seemed salvageable but would likely need more repairs, so Su Jin directly stored it in the Space. As for the sedan behind it, Su Jin planned to siphon the remaining gasoline and then abandon it.
Considering the number of people now, Su Jin and Lu Hao discussed and then took a minibus out of the Space.
Although the minibus was second-hand when purchased, it didn’t look worn out. Moreover, Mao Zhihang had reinforced it with a layer of Metal Element Ability while practicing in the Space. Additionally, if they drove this bus, they would only need one driver.
Zhang Chuyang volunteered eagerly to drive the minibus, but Su Jin pointed to his recently bandaged, blood-soaked palms and thus refused him.
“Su Jin, you all just got tired. Let us drive,” Fang Zhengyang quickly took the driver’s seat. Although they had just excavated Crystal Cores, they weren’t tired. Having the minibus would also make the journey livelier for everyone.
Su Jin did not object further. Lu Hao and Lin Xiuyuan indeed were tired, and now everyone needed a bit of rest.
The place where Wang Zhu and Zhang Chuyang were wasn’t far. Guided by Zhang Chuyang, the minibus arrived in just over 20 minutes.
In the abandoned building, Wang Zhu became alert at the noise outside until he saw Zhang Chuyang coming down from a bus, and he let out a sigh of relief.
The guy finally made it back alive.
But, how did he bring back so many people?
“Let’s all rest here for a bit,” Su Jin suggested, as they had been killing zombies all morning. Although they had rested in the Space in between, it was evident that everyone was still very tired.
“Yeah, yeah, if there’s a place to rest, let’s rest for a bit,” Lin Xiuyuan also said, exhausted from the morning’s effort.
Su Jin got out of the bus holding the Local Tyrant Gold, and Lian Jiyue also swooped in and carried Mao Qiqi off the bus.
Don’t carry me, I can walk on my own.
Mao Qiqi silently protested. How could she change his habit of carrying people at every turn? She wasn’t a child anymore.
Sure enough, Lian Jiyue obediently set down Mao Qiqi and quietly followed behind her…
“Brother Wang, guess who I brought!”
Zhang Chuyang kicked open the door and shouted joyfully.
“Can you keep it down? Are you not afraid of attracting the zombies… Su Jin?!”
Wang Zhu had not expected Su Jin, who had only worked under him for a few days before resigning, to appear here. At the time, the headquarters had even called specifically to ask if Su Jin had been mistreated during his brief employment, wondering why he had suddenly resigned…
However, he wasn’t upset at all; firstly, because Su Jin had his consent before resigning, and secondly, thanks to the supplies Su Jin had left in the warehouse, otherwise he and Zhang Chuyang would have either been eaten by zombies or starved to death.
Strictly speaking, Su Jin had saved them.
