Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus

Li Yu thought about these things at the mountaintop, unknown to the people at the base.

The night grew late, and Li Yu went back to his room to rest.

The next morning came early.

Second Uncle came to find him, his expression tense. The first words he said were, "Li Yu, our firearms and ammunition are now only one-tenth of what we initially had."

Li Yu was eating breakfast when he heard this and was startled.

During this period, he had indeed relaxed too much and hadn't noticed this issue.

It made sense, though; after facing that wave of a thousand refugees, they had used quite a lot of bullets.

Second Uncle originally did not have the keys to the warehouse, but seeing how Li Yu had become lax recently, caring less about many matters,

he felt anxious as he watched.

Later, after discussing with Li Yu's parents, they checked the warehouse and discovered the ammunition was indeed insufficient. Based on the current amount, it could only support two instances similar to the last refugee wave.

He had to mention it.

After being reminded by Second Uncle, Li Yu immediately realized the severity.

Having come back from a post-apocalyptic rebirth, although the first five years post-apocalypse had seen no major power groups, and firearms were much less used,

but for their base, why they could battle enemies victoriously several times, having firearms played a part of that advantage, yet now, the shortage of ammunition had become a huge problem!

Li Yu fell into deep thought. He remembered that in that previous apocalypse, before his rebirth, there were two groups that maintained full firearm utilization. After the apocalypse, no group managed to restore normal armament factories.

Yet these two groups managed to maintain sufficient ammunition because they had acquired a vast cache of weapons hoarded by the Government in the previous century.

But as for how these two groups obtained those weapons, opinions varied and there wasn't a definitive answer.

One group was in the north, the other in the Southern region.

Legend had it that the Southern group was located in a military base found in some hills in the South.

This military base had hollowed out an entire mountain range, storing inside billions of bullets and massive amounts of firearms.

Li Yu had thought about finding this entire military base, but in this lifetime, after the apocalypse erupted amidst chaos, it was difficult to gather any effective information.

But, prior to the apocalypse's onset, he managed to find some clues on the internet.

However, there were several locations. No exact spot.

This military base was elusive, but the police armory was precise, hence, after the apocalypse broke out, Li Yu first emptied the weapons from the two nearby armories.

But even so, after consuming without resupply for half a year, they now faced a shortage of bullets.

Li Yu faintly perceived this issue, which is why recently he began crafting arrows for crossbows—an alternative, yet still not as effective as firearms.

Seeing Second Uncle's worried expression, Li Yu reassured him, "Don't worry, we'll always find a solution."

He seemed to remember something and then said, "Second Uncle, help me call Uncle and Yang Tianlong, and Li Tie over. I need to ask them some questions."

Second Uncle, looking perturbed, nodded and said, "Alright, Li Yu. You must pay attention to this situation, under these circumstances, we must resolve it, or else maintaining our current operations will be difficult. We've also ventured around the vicinity, and some new power groups have emerged.

We need to be prepared; otherwise, if the enemies surpass us, we will be in a tough spot."

Li Yu tensed up; before his rebirth, he had always stayed in the north. He wasn't much familiar with the developments and power groups in the south post-apocalypse.

With a solemn look, he felt he indeed had been too relaxed recently.

Sense of crisis!

His sense of crisis had indeed diminished a lot. Second Uncle's words made Li Yu realize that the base couldn't remain stagnant; it must continuously progress.

"Okay, Second Uncle, please find them now."

Second Uncle took a sip of water and then headed out.

Today was Uncle's duty day, but he switched posts with someone else and came to the villa in the middle of the residential area.

Uncle saw Li Yu in the villa's lobby on the first floor and while walking said, "Your Second Uncle was looking for me. He said you had something for me. What is it?"

Li Yu nodded and said, "Uncle, let's wait a moment, wait until Tiezi and the others are here, then we'll talk."

Uncle wanted to inquire more, but hearing Li Yu mention waiting for others, he ultimately closed his mouth.

So, they waited.

Few minutes later, Li Tie, Li Gang, Dapao, Yang Tianlong, and others arrived one after another.

Li Yu saw that everyone had arrived.

Without any preamble, he directly said, "Our base is almost out of the ammunition we previously acquired."

Li Tie heard this and immediately grew anxious, he was very clear that their current advantage was not only due to ample food but also because their firearms were adequately powerful—simply put, they had bullets and guns.

"Didn't we stockpile the bullets from two armories before?" Dapao asked.

"They will run out, think about it, how many bullets we have used up until now…" Li Yu stated calmly.

"Ah, what do we do then?" Li Tie sighed.

The atmosphere suddenly turned suffocating; everyone was worried.

Seeing everyone's mood, Li Yu stood up and said, "I remember, it seems like there is a military base around here, right? I recall it was set up in preparation for World War III, and the Government built these military bases all over the country.

Do you guys have any related memories or impressions?"

As soon as Li Yu spoke, it sparked a discussion among them.

"I remember there being one. I heard my squad leader mention that in our province, there's one near Pangu Mountain. Not sure if it's true or false," Li Tie said.

"Right, right, I remember, I heard people say that too. They say the whole nation was armed, especially in the north. There were so many stocked up there, and that Cao County. Lots of airplanes..." Li Gang added on the side.

"What about you? Have you heard similar news?" Li Yu looked at Dapao and Yang Tianlong.

Dapao said, "The version I heard was in the western region, about 300 kilometers from us, they said it's in XX city's XX county."

Yang Tianlong said, "Uh... I'm not that gossipy; I don't know anything."

Li Yu: "..."

Alright.

Li Yu continued saying, "The bullets from the two armories our base collected previously are now scarce; we need to find new weapons.
