Chapter 333 Small Town

Four vehicles appeared on a narrow road…

'Bang!'

After a small group of zombies was annihilated, one of the cars rushed to the front .

"Captain Jiang, should we rest here tonight? This is a rural area so we may encounter many large mutant beasts," Shao Feng said .

Jiang Liushi glanced at the tablet with the map, and he saw they had a long way to go until they reached northern Jiangsu . Actually, in order to make the trip safer, they had to bypass all the major cities in the area .

After the ordeal with Hong Yue, Jiang Liushi had gained a new understanding of the zombies' evolution . In big cities, where millions of people once lived, and without any troops to thin their numbers, it was very possible to chance upon monstrous entities . Another reason they had decided to take detours, was to avoid mutant zombies' nests . Jiang Liushi's motto was that they had to be cautious .

Shenhai Island's military had already discovered the earthworms' colony, which they called 'Wormhole . ' Mutant beast's nesting places were similar to ant colonies as the mutant beasts' numbers residing inside were plenty .

On the map, the town they had reached had only a name tag . It was not a tourist area, just an ordinary town . As a result, Jiang Liushi couldn't find many details on the map . After losing the networking capabilities, the downloaded map had many flaws .

After cleaning up some of the zombies, they stopped at a hotel near the town's entrance . When the soldiers rushed into the hotel, a few zombies acted, but they immediately died under the soldiers' fire .

Shao Feng professionally led his team to inspect the perimeter and inside the hotel, and then they dragged the dead zombies back to the car .

"Captain Jiang, we've cleaned up a few rooms . 301 and 305 look clean as there were no bodies inside; they're just a bit dusty . Your members can take them and rest," Shao Feng came and said .

"We're also going to dump the zombies' bodies far from here . "

"Why? You can throw them wherever you want in the city," Jiang Zhuying asked .

"Mutant zombies and mutant beasts have evolved to such a terrifying degree, that they're sensitive to human blood and decaying odors," Shao Feng answered .

"On the way to deal with the bodies, we'll also be looking for gas stations and supermarkets . We need to find some material and other resources…"

"You can go," Jiang Liushi said .

Star City Base was in need of material and resources, so they had to search every nook and cranny on the way . Jiang Liushi didn't care much, as a small town like that, couldn't have anything he needed .

…

"Let's cook," said Jiang Liushi .

Zhang Hai and Sun Kun took out the gas tank and stove to cook .

"Let's have soup today," Zhang Hai said .

Ran Xiyu said suddenly, "It seems that someone was injured . " She had just activated her domain to stay alert, but she did not expect for something to happen .

"Injured?" Jiang Liushi also asked .

"Well, let me take a closer look . " Ran Xiyu was silent for two seconds, and then she answered unexpectedly, "I've found some people . They seem like survivors . "

"I'll go and check . Zhang Hai, Sun Kun, you stay here to guard the camp," Jiang Liushi said, and then they left .

The streets were very old . Some of the vehicles blocking the road were directly squeezed by Jiang Liushi's minibus . There are some stalls on the roadside, but now the items had long decayed and people where nowhere to be found .

"Where is it?" Jiang Liushi asked .

"Turn left," Ran Xiyu said .

After turning left, Jiang Liushi saw Shao Feng's car . They had stopped in front of a grocery store .

At that time, several soldiers were standing at the door, with their weapons aiming inside . Seeing Jiang Liushi's minibus coming, a soldier immediately ran over .

"What happened?" Jiang Liushi asked .

A dozen survivors were hidden inside . But when a soldier just entered, he was suddenly attacked .

"I'll help him," said Li Yuxin .

That soldier felt puzzled, but then his eyes flashed . "Are you a doctor?"

"Yes . " Li Yuxin nodded .

"That's great! I'll bring that soldier over here," the soldier said excitedly .

Star City Base had only a few doctors . As a result, the Reconnaissance Team had left without a doctor, only a handful of newly-trained medics, who could only give first aid treatment and treat external wounds . Unfortunately, in this world, a few wounds could lead to severe infections, and the medics had no way to prevent them .

"No, I'll come with you," Li Yuxin explained .

Jiang Liushi and Ran Xiyu also got off and walked into that room . It was a small room, but it was filled with many empty shelves . That wounded soldier was leaning on a vat while a medic was treating his wound .

"The injury is life-threatening!" Li Yuxin looked at his wound and then her expression changed . A knife had diagonally penetrated the soldier's neck . Once it was pulled out, it would cause bleeding .

"The survivors? Where are they?" Jiang Liushi asked .

Hearing this question, the medic looked up and answered, "They are inside . "

At this moment, Jiang Liushi heard a voice coming from inside, "We have children, and we haven't eaten anything for a long time . We need nutrition!"

After the voice died down, some survivors stormed out . When they got out, the indescribable lingering stench coming from their bodies filled the air . A middle-aged woman was pulling a young 10-year-old boy to come out too .

Seeing that group of people, Jiang Liushi was stunned as he felt that something was wrong .
