Apocalypse Rebirth: 3000 million won at the beginning

Chapter 2055 Night Flight Requires Caution
north.

buzzing-

Two sustainable helicopters flew over the North, and pedestrians on the ground looked up at the sky.

The outer city, which was originally sparsely populated, now has several thousand people.

Those abandoned houses have come to life again.

Ragged clothes hung in the corridor, swaying in the wind under the sun.

On the right side of the main road in the outer city, the newly planned commercial area is far inferior to that of the oil city, but the scattered shops look decent enough.

The commercial district is quite populated, and these newcomers are curiously looking at the shops in the area.

"I didn't expect there to be so many things for sale. I just wonder where they get all these things from."

"I heard that this northern border is just a branch base, belonging to a branch base under the big camphor tree. These clothes, shoes, soap and other daily necessities are all transported from other places."

"Wow! Really? How did you know?"

“A convoy comes every week. You’ve only just joined, right? You’ll see in a few days.”

"Well, now that I think about it, the North is actually pretty good. How did you even know about the North back then?"

"It's just an advertisement I saw on the roadside."

"Me too. Those damn Russians went over to Northeast China and took over our shelter. Fuck those Russians."

As pedestrians watched, the two sustainable helicopters flew towards the northern city.

Helipad in the northern city.

Xiao Jun, Zheng Lang, and the others stepped out of the helicopter and were greeted by Ah Hong.

"Long time no see, Captain Xiao." Ah Hong walked over with a smile.

When Xiao Jun saw Ah Hong, a smile appeared on his lips: "Long time no see."

The two of them instinctively extended their fists and bumped them together.

"I thought you would arrive later, but I didn't expect you to come so early," Ah Hong said.

Xiao Jun twisted his slightly sore arm and replied:

"Come over soon, and solve the problem as soon as possible."

He looked at the helicopters on the helipad. Besides the two helicopters that had landed, there were four other helicopters, two of which were also sustainable helicopters.

"Have the people to carry out this mission been selected?" Xiao Jun asked.

Ah Hong nodded and said:
"They've all been chosen; they're all skilled, so don't worry."

As he spoke, he led Xiao Jun toward the city lord's mansion, asking:
"Is the city lord alright?"

Ah Hong is stationed in the Northern Territory and rarely leaves. He hasn't returned to the headquarters since the last high-level meeting.

Xiao Jun nodded and said, "It's fine. It's just that the city lord doesn't manage things much anymore. Usually, it's the guild leader and others who are in charge of the work of our Great Camphor Tree faction."

Upon hearing this, Ah Hong smiled wryly:

"Is the city lord planning to retire? I remember the city lord is thirty years old this year?"

Xiao Jun scratched his head and replied, "It should be almost done."

After a long pause, Ah Hong sighed:

"He single-handedly founded the Great Camphor Tree and led everyone to develop it to what it is today. Who would have thought that the city lord is not even thirty years old? At such a young age, why is he always thinking about retiring?"

Xiao Jun coughed, but did not respond to Ah Hong's words.

When Ah Hong heard him cough, she quickly stopped talking.

It's rather inappropriate to discuss the city lord in public.

If someone reports this, there will probably be a lot of trouble.

In recent years, the Ministry of Education has been promoting the idea of ​​worshipping the city lord, and there are many die-hard fans of the city lord in every branch base.

In particular, some minors in the Oil City and the headquarters base of the Big Camphor Tree have not yet formed their values ​​and have heard too many legends about the city lord over the years.

Years of education have instilled in them a high level of admiration for Li Yu.

It could even cost them their lives.

Ah Hong then led Xiao Jun to the city lord's mansion, where they met with Li Haoran and Lü Cheng.

"Ah Hong, hand over those two residents who discovered the Russians to Xiao Jun later," Lu Cheng instructed.

"Yes."

Lu Cheng looked at Xiao Jun and said:
“Xiao Jun, the minister has already spoken to me on the radio. Just give me a list of what you need, and I can provide you with support.”

Xiao Jun nodded and stepped forward, saying:

"Director Lü, I'd like to learn more about those Russians in Northeast China. I have a few questions I'd like you to answer."

Lu Cheng nodded and said, "No problem, go ahead and ask."

Xiao Jun didn't stand on ceremony and asked directly:

"I want an accurate estimate of the strength of those Russians—how many are there? What's their equipment like?"

An hour later, Xiao Jun walked out of the city lord's mansion.

He looked thoughtfully at the city lord's mansion behind him.

Ah Hong caught up from behind, "Captain Xiao, I'll take you to see those two survivors. They've dealt with those Russians before. You can bring them along; they're familiar with the area."

"Okay, thank you, Ah Hong," Xiao Jun nodded.

Time passes slowly.

After meeting the two survivors and exchanging words with them, Xiao Jun gained a deeper understanding of the Russians in Northeast China.

Seeing that it was almost time, Xiao Jun said to the two of them:

"You'll come back with us tomorrow and lead the way."

The two survivors were named Kong Lin and Zhong Yifei.

They are all from Hunchun City.

Upon hearing that they had to go back, both of them immediately showed troubled expressions.

They spent so much time getting here, and now they have to go back. This...
Seeing the troubled expressions on their faces, Xiao Jun frowned and said:
"Don't worry, I won't let you lead the way for nothing. You'll each get ten points for leading the way."

Upon hearing this, Zhong Yifei quickly replied:

"It's not about the points. I want to ask if you were planning to drive them away in the past?"

"If you're going to drive them away, I..."

Zhong Yifei, recalling his friends who had been killed, raised his voice and said:
"I'll go with you! As long as you help us get revenge!"

They were the first to report this matter and had previously earned a considerable amount of points.

These points are the reward for reporting information.

Within the camphor tree faction, survivors can earn points based on the importance of the information they report, once the information is verified.

Xiao Jun glanced at the two of them indifferently and said:
"You'll get the points you're entitled to, and as for those Russians, we're not going to kick them out."

"Instead, they were killed!"

His tone was full of murderous intent, which startled Zhong Yifei and Kong Lin.

Kong Lin also said:
"No problem, when do we leave?"

"Someone will pick you up early tomorrow morning, and we'll take a helicopter to the Northeast together," Xiao Jun said.

Zhong Yifei and Kong Lin's eyes lit up when they heard him say that.

They're taking a helicopter? I thought we'd have to drive there.

Helicopters are fast, but what if they run out of fuel on the way back?
It's over a thousand kilometers from the northern border to Hunchun.

It took them several months to get here from Hunchun.

After pondering for a moment, Kong Lin asked:
"What if the helicopter runs out of fuel?"

Xiao Jun replied casually:
"Don't worry, our helicopters don't use fuel, so you don't need to worry about range."

"Huh?" Kong Lin looked completely bewildered, wondering if he had misheard.

A helicopter that doesn't use fuel?

I'd never heard of it before the apocalypse.

Xiao Jun was too lazy to explain to them; he already knew what he needed to know. So he urged the two of them:
"You can go back now. Someone will come to pick you up tomorrow."

The two left, completely bewildered. Back in the outer city, they still felt something was amiss.

"Kong Lin, have you ever heard of a helicopter that doesn't use fuel?" Zhong Yifei asked.

Kong Lin shook his head: "Never heard of it, but maybe. Before the apocalypse, new energy development was on the rise, so there might have been electric helicopters."

"However, the battery life should be very short, and it was impossible to do this before the apocalypse, so how could it be possible now?"

Zhong Yifei suddenly remembered the electric transport truck he had seen a couple of days ago.

"It seems there really are electric trucks like this in the North, and I heard they can travel over 2000 kilometers."

"How is this possible?" Kong Lin asked incredulously.
"Before the apocalypse, the range of new energy electric vehicles was only four or five hundred kilometers, so how could there be an electric truck with a range of more than two thousand kilometers?"

Zhong Yifei replied:
"It seems they can mass-produce solid-state batteries now, which have high energy density."

"Hiss!" Kong Lin gasped, "So powerful."

Zhong Yifei straightened the blanket. "I don't want to think about it anymore. I'll find out tomorrow. Go to sleep."

The outer city of the northern border.

There were still quite a few people wandering around the commercial area.

Most of them couldn't afford anything, but that didn't stop them from wandering around here.

Before entering the North, they dared not come out at night at all.

Browsing through these small markets now feels like stepping into a dream, like returning to the pre-apocalyptic world.

They hadn't experienced this sense of freedom and relaxation in a long time.

"It's so nice, it's cool at night."

"Yes, I didn't dare to come out at night before. The North is indeed a land of hope, just as the propaganda says."

"Plantations outside the city, which team are you on?"

"3rd squadron, 4th group, what about you?"

"2nd Brigade"

night.

SZ City.

Above a road in the southern part of Qilishantang.

Two sustainable helicopters are still flying in the night sky.

Four high-beam searchlights from the two helicopters shone on the ground.

Sparse groups of zombies could be seen on the ground, heading east.

Old Qin ate a fresh, juicy peach and looked down at the zombies, saying:
“Judge, this has been the case all the way since we left the oil city. It seems that the eastward migration of zombies is a large-scale mass migration and is definitely not an isolated case.”

The judge looked up at the circled area on the map.

Xinyang, Fuyang, Huainan, Hefei, Chuzhou, Nanjing, Changzhou, Wuxi, and now Suzhou.

As we flew along, we saw images of zombies migrating eastward in every city we visited.

"Continue east and check out the beach in M ​​City."

“Okay.” The jackal piloting the helicopter immediately adjusted its altitude, and after flying to over a thousand meters, continued flying eastward.

Flying a helicopter at night is quite dangerous.

Without navigation, flying too fast at night could easily cause a collision with tall buildings.

It's even possible that it could crash into a mountain, resulting in a fatal accident.

So they reduced their flight speed, maintaining a speed of 100 kilometers per hour.

And try to increase the flight altitude as much as possible, keeping it above 1,000 meters.

In addition, the searchlights in the helicopter remained on, illuminating the area ahead.

The judge rubbed his aching head. He didn't know why, but he had been having a migraine since this afternoon.

After taking an ibuprofen tablet, I felt a bit dizzy and sleepy.

He got up and went back to the rest area. "I'll take a nap. Wake me up when we get to the beach."

"Okay, you can sleep soundly," Old Qin replied.

The helicopter flew through the night sky, its four searchlights illuminating the dark earth like lightsabers.

after an hour.

The helicopter arrived at the territory of M City.

Old Qin called the judge over.

The judge looked down at the buildings below, where, under the spotlights, zombies surged eastward like a tidal wave.

M City already has a lot of zombies, so the zombie migration situation here is even more prominent.

"How much longer until we reach the sea?" the judge asked.

After considering it for a moment, Lao Qin replied:
"At our current speed, it will probably take an hour."

The judge frowned. "Increase the helicopter's altitude to 2000 meters and accelerate over there."

He is now eager to see what is happening on the other side of the sea.

Once the helicopter climbs to an altitude of two thousand meters, it is unlikely to crash into a building.

Upon receiving the order, the two helicopters immediately climbed to a higher altitude and headed towards the sea.

Half an hour later.

Lingang District, Dishui Lake.

Nanhui Mouth Seaview Park.

In the spacious park square, countless zombies surged like worms.

The same was true of the zombies in the sea, which even covered the seawater.

The seawater near the coast is completely different from the seawater further away.

In the distance, the moonlight shines on the water, creating a shimmering effect.

The sea near the coast was completely obscured by so many zombies that they fell down.

The people in the helicopter stared in disbelief at what they saw.

"How many zombies are there?!" The jackal felt a chill run down his spine at the sight.

This was the most zombies he had ever seen.

Even the time I faced the most zombies in the oil city before, I didn't see as many zombies as I did this time, nor was it as shocking.

Old Qin, standing nearby, held up a camera and filmed the scene as he watched.

"Judge, it seems we can be fairly certain that the destination of the zombies' eastward migration is the ocean!"

"But why are these zombies heading towards the ocean?"

The judge silently gazed at the zombies on the sea, shook his head, and said:

"I don't know either. Let's just fly with the zombies down here and see where they swim to."

The helicopter adjusted its altitude downwards.

A hundred meters above the sea, they could see even more clearly.

However, these zombies in the sea swam in a completely different direction than they did on land, where they collectively headed east.

Moreover, some zombies burrowed downwards.

After chasing along the coast for an hour, they decided to stop.

They dared not fly into the deep ocean, for without navigation, they would not know where they would end up.

Although their helicopters can fly indefinitely, their food supplies are limited.

If you fly to other continental countries, it will be very troublesome to return.

"Where are you now?" the judge asked.

The jackal looked down and calculated:
"We've been flying south along the coast, this should be NB City by now."

"Then stay here tonight. Don't fly into the depths of the sea. Fly around in the air," the judge instructed.

"We'll go to Palau first thing tomorrow morning to check on the situation."
