Zombie Apocalypse: Reborn With A Farming Space - Chapter 253

Chapter 253: Wei Ying’s Visit ( 1 )
The next morning, Wei Ying left the survivor camp with three of his team members at sunrise. When the soldiers saw him leaving, they quickly opened the gate and said, “Captain Wei, good luck on your journey.”

Wei Ying nodded and said, “If something happens, go find my team. I will return as soon as possible.”

“Understood,” the soldiers nodded and said in unison.

As they drove, Wei Ying checked the map and said, “Don’t take the highway and stop at the gas station first.”

“Yes, Captain.”

After driving for forty minutes, they reached the gas station, and after refueling, they continued their journey. Due to the bad condition of the road, they had to take some detours and fight against zombies. When they arrived at Xun Che’s base, the sky had changed color and the sun was setting.

Seeing two lines of people waiting to enter the base, one of his men looked at Wei Ying and said, “Captain, there are so many people here.”

Wei Ying pointed at the side gate and said, “Go to that gate.”

Noticing that the side gate was used as an entrance for vehicles, his soldier drove the car over.

When the guards saw their car, one of them raised his hand and said, “Stop!”

After the car had fully stopped, the guard walked over and knocked on the window. The moment the window was lowered, the soldier was surprised. He quickly gave a salute and said, “Captain Wei Ying.”

Wei Ying nodded at him and said, “We came to find Captain Xun Che. Please inform him.”

The soldier nodded and said, “Captain Wei, please wait in the tent.”

Wei Ying and his team didn’t make things difficult for them and parked the car to the side before they came out and entered the side tent.

Inside the tent, the soldiers took their temperature and checked their bodies for any wounds. After they were done, the soldiers gave them a bottle of mineral water, two pieces of rice ball, and a piece of sausage.

Seeing the food, Wei Ying and his team were surprised. Compared to the thin porridge they ate in their camp, the food given by Xun Che and his team was much better.

When the soldier noticed they didn’t eat or drink, he said, “Captain Wei, these foods and water are freshly made and safe for consumption. You don’t have to worry.”

Hearing this, Wei Ying shook his head and said, “I’m not worried about that. I’m just surprised that your base is able to give up these foods.”

The moment the soldier heard this, he smiled and said, “Well, it’s all thanks to Captain Jin and his team. If not for them helping us clear the zombies and find supplies, we might not even have plain water, let alone rice and sausage.”

Wei Ying was stunned by his words, and it took him a while to regain his composure. He looked at the soldier and asked, “Comrade, this Captain Jin you are talking about—is it the one from the Phantom team?”

The soldier found his question strange, but he still nodded and replied, “It’s indeed Captain Jin Xuyan.”

As soon as he said this, Wei Ying and his team members broke out in smiles. They thought that the Phantom team had fallen in the factory district. Fortunately, they managed to survive!

“This is great! With Captain Jin and his team around, our chance of winning will be higher,” one of Wei Ying’s team members said excitedly.

Just after he finished his words, Xun Che entered the tent and asked, “What chance of winning?”

Hearing his voice, Wei Ying stood up, placed the water and food on the table, and then walked over. After they exchanged salutes, he said, “Captain Xun, I came today to discuss an important matter regarding the zombie horde located near the border.”

When he heard this, Xun Che’s expression turned solemn and he said, “Captain Wei, let’s change to another place to talk. This way please.”

With him leading them, the soldier quickly opened the gate and let them in.

As they drove the car, Wei Ying and his team realized that the survivors living in this base didn’t look as depressed as those living in the survivor camp. Even though they still looked thin, their steps were brisk and their eyes were full of light and hope.

While they were amazed by the difference, they arrived at the tallest building in the base. The building was one of the property management office buildings before the apocalypse. After they settled down, they chose this place as the main building for their operational office.

Although there were solar panels, the energy was only enough to operate the lamps and some computers. So, they could only use the stairs to reach the meeting room located on the fifth floor.

While they climbed the stairs, Wei Ying asked, “Captain Xun, why don’t you find more solar panels? Climbing stairs every day will be too tiring.”

When he heard this, Xun Che smiled and replied, “Now that we are busy handling the operation of the base, we have no time to exercise. Climbing stairs is a good way to keep our bodies fit.”

The moment he said these words, his team nodded and said solemnly, “Captain is right. We have to keep training in case of an emergency.”

At the same time, Wei Ying and his team were speechless. They had heard about how crazy Xun Che was regarding training his team.

They thought that no matter how much he loved exercising, there would be a limit. Unexpectedly, he did go beyond their expectations. He was still able to find a way to train even during his daily duties.

Perhaps due to their daily practice of climbing stairs, they didn’t even break a sweat when they walked onto the fifth floor. Opening the meeting room door, Xun Che said, “Captain Wei, this way, please.”

After everyone took their seats, one of Xun Che’s men poured a cup of water for them before taking his seat and opening a notebook, ready to record the meeting progress.
