Chapter 10 Safe Base
The information officially released was like a thunderclap, exploding in everyone's ears.
Messages came one after another in the community group, all discussing superpowers.
Building 3, Room 202: [I knew that when the end of the world comes, some special people will appear, but why isn't that person me? Haha, haha.]
Building 7, Room 1203: [What's wrong with you, brother upstairs? Are you crazy?]
There are quite a few people like Xiaoshuo Ge in the group, and none of them have awakened their special abilities.
But some have awakened superpowers, such as Brother Jiudong, who was the first to propose killing zombies. He awakened the fire power and posted a video in the group.
Building 9: [Video] [The superpower has awakened, but killing zombies is a bit difficult.]
In the video, a small flame appeared at his fingertips. The flame looked very cute, similar to a lighter.
"Six, if I have this ability, I might as well buy a lighter."
[No, why does this ability look so weak?]
[The superpowered characters in the official videos are all so handsome. Is this the difference between ordinary people and the official ones?]
Building 9: [Although my fire is small, it will continue to burn without my control, and even water cannot put it out, hehe.]
Building 9: [And I always feel that my superpowers can be upgraded, but I don’t know how.]
Qiao Zhi looked at the other party's flame, then looked at the green light on her own fingertips, and felt that hers was more useful at the moment.
After all, her ability is hard control. Even if the opponent's small flame cannot be extinguished, it will take some effort to burn through the zombie's head.
Well, finally there was some consolation, at least hers was not the worst.
On the third day of the apocalypse, Qiao Zhi woke up early in the morning and discovered that the network signal was intermittent and the network outage could happen at any time.
Once the network was disconnected, they were completely isolated from the outside world.
The little bit of confidence that had just risen in the major groups due to the appearance of the superpowers was quickly shattered by reality.
Taking advantage of this last opportunity, the official also announced the most important information, which is the establishment of a safe base.
Another piece of news is the current population of their city. According to data, the ratio of humans to zombies is as high as ten to one.
That means only one out of ten people can survive.
Of course, this is just a rough statistic and not very accurate. Perhaps the actual situation is more serious than the data.
Qiao Zhi's heart sank as he looked at the published data. Their city was a provincial capital with a permanent population of approximately 30 million.
In other words, there are currently more than 20 million zombies in the city!
What worries her even more is that due to the good geographical location of her community, there are a lot of people around it, and she is currently living in a zombie den.
How off the mark!
Why did she choose a community close to her workplace because she wanted to sleep in? She should have lived in the suburbs so that she wouldn't have to worry about not being able to escape.
In addition to the above information, the authorities also pointed out that they have sent people for rescue, but because disasters are occurring all over the country, they do not have enough manpower, so they call on the general public to take the initiative to go to safe bases.
Qiao Zhi's fingers never stopped moving. He quickly wrote down the location of the safe base, and then took screenshots and saved several routes marked by the authorities.
Only after finishing all this did she have time to read the comment section.
[I'm so lucky. The safe base is very close to me. Now I have to pack up and go to my mother. Hope I can get through the zombies and reach the safe base smoothly.]
"Letting us go on our own is like sending us to our deaths. There are so many zombies out there, we can't even reach a safe base."
[Oh my god, how am I going to get there? There are zombies all downstairs. I can't get out. I can only wait for rescue.] [Never mind. I'm almost out of food anyway. Might as well try my best to get to the safe base.]
Reactions in the comment section were mixed, with some still hoping for rescue, while others took the initiative to head for a safe base.
There is also a group of people who continue to spread anxiety, always saying things like they can't survive and the country has abandoned them.
Qiao Zhi hates those who spread anxiety. Who wouldn't be afraid of the end of the world? But aren't we all trying to survive?
You keep saying discouraging things, and when others see it, even those who originally had confidence will be discouraged.
She was reading the comments when she received a call from Lu Hanchuan.
After hesitating for a while, Qiao Zhi finally picked up the phone.
"Zhizhi, I'm on my way to your house now. Don't run around. Let's go to the safe base together after I get there."
Before he could finish his words, the voice on the other end disappeared.
Qiao Zhi took the phone down from his ear and saw that the signal was completely gone.
On the other side, the sudden interruption of the conversation made Lu Hanchuan pound on the wall in frustration.
Ever since he found a way to leave the hotel yesterday, he has been rushing to Qiao Zhi's house.
Who would have thought that it would take him only a dozen minutes to drive there, but he spent the whole night and still couldn't get there.
The main reason is that there are too many zombies on the road. They are very active at night and their movements are much more agile than during the day.
He would encounter a group of zombies almost every time he walked. He had no choice but to find a place to hide and wait until dawn to rush over.
As for driving, he thought that the key point was that the road was already crowded with various vehicles and it was impossible to drive through.
Qiao Zhi had no idea what was going on over there. When she heard that Lu Hanchuan was coming to find her, her heart skipped a beat.
Although she was very tempted to read the spoilers in the barrage, the fate of the vicious female supporting character made her feel uneasy about continuing to contact Lu Hanchuan.
Oh, let’s not think about it for now. I don’t know whether the other party can get here safely.
The most important thing now is to plan your future path.
The safe base is about 90 kilometers away from her current location, and under normal circumstances it takes two hours to drive there.
But in the end times she needs to consider various situations.
The first thing is the zombies on the road, as well as various mutated animals and plants. The second thing is to find a suitable route.
The obstacles caused by plant mutations to the roads are not small. Some roads are blocked by protruding tree roots, making it impossible to drive through.
She took out a piece of paper and started writing and drawing, and finally planned a safer route.
Now that the route is planned, she still has to think about how to set off.
Food and water are absolutely essential along the way, but she certainly can't take anything from home with her because her car can't fit them all.
Moreover, with the current road conditions, it is a problem whether the car can drive out.
It makes me sad just thinking about it. What’s the point of her saving so many supplies? She really can’t take any of them with her when she leaves.
If only she had the legendary space power, she could pack up all her things and take them away, and also collect supplies on the way.
