Zuo Feng's lips curled into a smile as he scanned the group and said with a faint smile, "Alright, then you five perform well this afternoon. Tomorrow, we'll go into the mountains to gather fresh ingredients and relax a bit!
You five must perform well this afternoon. Those who perform poorly will stay behind tomorrow to guard the base!"
The girls all agreed, and Zuo Feng naturally wouldn't object.
Besides, they really did need some fresh ingredients. They couldn't keep eating noodles, bread, canned food, and instant noodles, could they?
The nutritional value wasn't high. Of course, saying that those who performed poorly would stay at the base was just a pretense.
How could a Zhan Wu Zha be left alone at the base? It was too dangerous! He said this to make the Zhan Wu Zha work harder this afternoon.
"Oh yeah, Feng Ge agreed! Tomorrow, I'm going to dig for bird eggs again!"
Xiao She Jing immediately jumped up in excitement. The excited girls gathered together and began discussing what clothes to wear for their trip into the mountains tomorrow. Zuo Feng, the leader, was once again isolated.
However, with these girls around, Zuo Feng felt that even though it was the apocalypse, life was more interesting than before.
Listening to the girls' excited chatter, Zuo Feng's lips curved slightly, and a warm current surged in his heart as he quietly watched the girls excitedly chattering away.
The afternoon's cleanup proceeded in an orderly fashion. When they were tired from fighting, they rested; when they were well-rested, they fought again.
Perhaps Xiao Mi Tao was worried about not being able to go into the mountains tomorrow, or perhaps she was truly afraid of Zuo Feng hitting her with a bamboo stick.
In the afternoon's battle, Xiao Mi Tao overfulfilled her mission, actually shooting and killing two zombies. She deserved praise!
Xiao Nv Pu and Xiao Chu Niang were even more impressive, averaging one zombie per three arrows. Keep in mind that they had only been exposed to archery for one day, and they were hitting the zombies' temples or eyeballs. Their talent was incredibly high!
The young married woman and Da Bai Tu's accuracy had also improved significantly. Although they couldn't accurately hit the eyeballs or temples, roughly five out of ten arrows hit the zombies' heads.
Xiao Mi Tao was still lagging behind, but her accuracy had also improved quite a bit. At least five out of ten arrows could hit a zombie, though these five arrows weren't all to the head, but scattered across various parts of the zombie's body.
As dusk approached, the zombies had mostly been eliminated by the "Zhan Wu Zha."
Zuo Feng ended the Zhan Wu Zha's training. The first floor of the base's living area had many sections: dormitories, a dining hall, a training area, a fitness area, and so on.
The Zhan Wu Zha stopped fighting. Next was the work of Da Mi Tao, Xiao She Jing, and Zuo Feng. The three of them meticulously checked every nook and cranny of the base's first floor, inside and out, to ensure no zombies were hiding in the shadows.
This inspection took more than three hours, and it had long since grown dark outside. However, with the base's main gate closed, it was still brightly lit inside—having electricity was great!
The inspection of over three hours yielded extremely rich rewards.
Because there was electricity, the base's cold storage had been continuously refrigerating. Everyone found a warehouse full of frozen meat in the cold storage, with chicken, duck, fish, and various meats, and even a lot of seafood!
These meats alone filled a quarter of a kongling crystal. That was a cubic space 100 meters in length, width, and height!
But thinking about it, it made sense. The meat supply for several thousand people at the base could fill a quarter of a kongling crystal, so it wasn't surprising. There were also many vegetables, but most had withered or wilted.
After hastily eating some dry rations, everyone was now picking out edible vegetables, and even Xiao Tongtong was helping.
This base truly lived up to its facade as a breeding farm; it genuinely raised chickens and ducks. The total number of eggs, including chicken eggs and duck eggs, was estimated to be 20,000, all of which Da Bai Tu collected into the kongling crystal.
Most importantly, the armory that Xiao Mi Tao had mentioned earlier, likely due to the hurried evacuation, had only about half of its firearms and ammunition moved out.
There were dozens of various weapons left, and tens of thousands of rounds of ammunition, including two Barrett sniper rifles! And 1,000 rounds of specialized ammunition!
Although they also had two sniper rifles, those were Type 88 sniper rifles, and their power was not in the same league as the Barrett, which was known as the King of Snipers!
The most important find was a Gatling machine gun!
This was a true weapon of mass destruction! Unfortunately, there weren't many specialized rounds, only 4,000, which would only last for about 50 seconds of a true Xiao Nan Ren's use.
But even if this thing wasn't used, just setting it up was intimidating enough.
As for the individual rocket launcher Xiao Mi Tao mentioned, Zuo Feng didn't see it, so it was probably moved. There were still over 30 grenades left, all of which were collected into Da Mi Tao's kongling crystal.
"Xiaoyu, your unit is incredible! They even have heavy machine guns!"
In the empty dining hall, Xiao She Jing said to Xiao Mi Tao, who was engrossed in picking vegetables, "As a special police officer, she knew that even in the military, heavy machine guns were usually only equipped at the battalion level!"
This base actually had heavy machine guns, and even individual rocket launchers! Although she hadn't seen the rocket launchers, it was enough to show how important this base was!
"It's alright. This can only be considered a branch outpost. The main base doesn't seem to be in the country and is much more formidable than here. Unfortunately, I don't know where it is."
Xiao Mi Tao stuck out her small tongue. On the day of the apocalypse, when she called for help, she was told that the experimental base and all the living people had evacuated to the main base, but she truly didn't know where the main base was.
Da Mi Tao was also surprised by her younger sister. She only knew that her sister worked in a confidential unit, but her sister had always been tight-lipped about her work.
Now she realized that her younger sister was truly extraordinary!
Unfortunately, the experimental base's confidentiality was too high. Even Xiao Mi Tao wasn't entirely clear about what this experimental base specifically did; her clearance only allowed her to go down to the third underground level.
The most confidential areas were on the fourth and fifth underground levels. Xiao Mi Tao's job here was as an observer, which was why her observational skills were so outstanding.
Everyone spent over an hour together on the vegetables, and they finally managed to pick out the edible ones. These selected, edible vegetables, when piled up, could fill the side room of Zuo Feng's previous room. Xiao Chu Niang stretched languidly.
"Phew, finally done picking. Does everyone want a late-night snack? How about some barbecue?"
"Let's try a little. I'm still feeling a bit nauseous right now."
Da Bai Tu's pretty face turned pale at the thought of the previous scene.
Her Xiao Nan Ren was too naughty today!
Towards the end of the cleanup, he actually left five zombies and had Kong Ling shatter their limbs. Thinking of those five zombies, Da Bai Tu felt a wave of nausea.
Her Xiao Nan Ren actually made the five of them, one by one, use tactical knives to stab the zombies' eyes and temples.
Although the zombies had their limbs shattered by Kong Ling, they were still wriggling on the ground. Using a bow and arrow to kill them was completely different from stabbing them with a tactical knife.
Shooting arrows to kill zombies didn't involve touch, but stabbing with a knife did!
With trembling hands, they finally managed to stab the zombies to death. Xiao Mi Tao even cried.
She hid to the side and vomited for a long time, even bringing up stomach acid, and only slowly recovered a little.
But this bad Xiao Nan Ren actually brought the zombie corpses in front of them again and stirred a tactical knife in the zombies' eye sockets, making the zombies' mashed gray brain matter flow out of their eye sockets. The scene was utterly disgusting!
This Xiao Nan Ren even added, "Look, doesn't this gray brain matter look like gray sesame paste!"
