Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus

Chapter 175 167: The Thoughtful Salvation Army



Everyone got into the vehicles, started the engines, and set out for Southern City.

Southern City, too, has a convoy heading in their direction.

The convoy seemed to exude a frightening aura, even though its passengers appeared somewhat gaunt.

These people looked fierce and ruthless, driving at breakneck speeds.

They were no longer far from Li Yu's group.

...

Meanwhile, at the base, in accordance with previously established plans, renovations were due for the base.

Especially the walls, for which construction materials were needed. Third Uncle took a few workers to the neighboring town, where Li Yu's group had previously moved some cement.

Being close, they soon left in a large truck to transport some construction materials shortly after Li Yu's group departed.

They encountered no issues on the way and quickly transported the materials back.

At the base, there was bustling activity to reinforce the perimeter walls.

Raising the railings along the wall, this reinforcement and heightening of the several-kilometer-long perimeter was a substantial undertaking.

Second Uncle, meanwhile, was walking around the base. Li Yu once mentioned to him about the water outlet locations, how debris had clogged the grating in front of the pipes after a torrential downpour.

Second Uncle took a couple of men with him to clear up the debris under the pipes and then went to inspect the outlet outside.

He wouldn't have known without going there, and upon arrival, he discovered two zombies with broken legs under a metal grid at the outlet slope.

Under the sun, the zombies were motionless, until Second Uncle and the men approached, prompting the creatures to suddenly howl.

That truly gave Second Uncle and the others a scare.

They speared the two zombies, eliminating the threat.

Standing at the outlet, Second Uncle pondered for a moment. This outlet led directly into the base, and they had to be wary of zombies crawling into it.

Although these zombies couldn't directly enter the base due to a height difference where a tall platform was built and the area surrounded by a metal grid, like a well, it was difficult to climb up.

But if this outlet got blocked, it would be difficult to clear.

Second Uncle had the workers create a few more metal grids to barricade the outlet further and adjusted the outlet's direction towards a steeper slope.

Below the slope, a nearly 10-meter drop made it virtually impossible for anything to get to the outlet.

The recent storms had revealed minor issues within the base, which Second Uncle and the others started repairing and adjusting.

Back to Li Yu's side.

If seen from above, a three-vehicle convoy would be spotted heading south, while another of about ten vehicles with nearly a hundred people was heading north.

And these two convoys were getting closer and closer.

On the highway where Li Yu and the others were, they stopped forming a single line and began driving two vehicles side by side instead.

Inside the vehicle, Dapao and others, out of boredom, were maintaining their firearms and checking the ammunition as per their military habits.

They had already checked everything countless times back at the base.

But there wasn't much to do in the vehicle, so they just kept cleaning and inspecting their weapons again.

In the Salvation Army's convoy, inside the largest central bus, the seats were removed and converted into a makeshift small RV.

Inside, a few people were playing poker.

"I'm sick of eating human flesh. We need to search other places and get something tasty. King of Diamonds!" a bald man declared.

Across from him, a man with a red birthmark on his face muttered, "Don't know what happened to Xiao Mao and their lot when they went over there; then we sent some more people afterward, didn't we? This damn weather! It's roasting me alive. Ace of Hearts! Haha, I beat you!"

The middle-aged man was about to reach out and collect the few cigarettes on the table. He thought he had won for sure.

"Whats the rush! Royal flush!" The bald man casually tossed his cards down.

"Damn!" The man with the red birthmark glared at another man and said, "Didn't you just say you had the king?"

"That guy nonchalantly said, "Must have misheard."

"Don't play dumb!" The bald man slapped away the other man's hand and reached for the cigarettes.

These cigarettes were scarce goods.

"You motherf****r, you two in cahoots? Is he the landlord? What the f**k are you doing?" The man with the red birthmark fiercely glared at the man, then suddenly flipped the table.

The cigarettes fell to the ground.

The middle-aged man across the table, seeing this, also became furious. He pulled out the Long Knife he had been carrying on his back, ready to stab the man with the red birthmark.

The man with the red birthmark wasn't afraid when he saw the action; he had killed quite a few people recently. Not only had he killed, but he had also eaten quite a lot!

These Salvation Army members, in the midst of the torrential rain and a food shortage, seemed to have been let loose by their leader to fight among themselves, the winner gets to eat meat.

And the loser gets eaten.

It was on the brink of erupting.

Suddenly, the minibus made an abrupt stop.

Due to inertia, everyone inside the bus fell forward.

"F**king hell, Lao Wu, what the hell kind of driving is that!" The bald man said furiously.

"Looks like there must've been an accident up ahead. They slammed on their brakes suddenly. If I hadn't stopped, we'd have crashed into them," Lao Wu said helplessly.

Hearing that, the bald man and the man with the birthmark, after such an interruption, both lost their fighting spirit.

Everyone was curious as to what happened that they had to stop so abruptly.

The bald man and the man with the birthmark, each holding a knife, got out of the bus and walked towards the vehicles in front.

In the very front of the Salvation Army, two SUVs stopped less than 10 meters from Li Yu and his group, the driver inside panting heavily and drenched in cold sweat.

It was a sharp bend, and it was likely that neither side saw the other until the very last moment when they turned the corner.

...

Time goes back to 1 minute earlier, from the perspective of Li Yu's side, Li Hang was driving the car, turning the bend, and two cars came head-on.

The cars opposite also saw Li Yu's vehicle, and both sides slammed on the brakes!

The distance was less than 10 meters.

Both sides were silent for 10 seconds, having almost collided just now.

The Salvation Army seemed to finally regain their composure, looking at the three vehicles ahead through the glass, not quite clear on who was in the other cars.

But seeing that there were only three cars on the other side, they felt an even stronger sense of rage.

The driver who almost crashed into Li Yu's car was burning with anger, having almost had a collision.

Rolling down his window, he yelled towards Li Yu and his group, "Are you f**king blind, motherf*****s, you douchebags, we Salvation Army haven't come across anyone who dares to block our way. F**kheads."

On Li Yu's side, there was silence, as if they were dumbstruck by the scolding, or their minds were overwhelmed by the notoriety of the Salvation Army.

Hearing the words from the other side, Li Yu and Li Hang exchanged looks, both eyes revealing a hint of excitement.

A smile formed on the corner of Li Yu's mouth.

Salvation Army... how thoughtful.
