Doomsday: I Can Get a Hint

Chapter 75: Caravan Sets Out


Morning

The villa gates opened, and the truck slowly drove out.

Behind it, there were seven pickup trucks.

After some discussions, Lin Yuennan and Wang Hao agreed to move all the resources from the previous warehouse back to the villa district.

Currency issuance was imminent.

They needed adequate resources as collateral.

Moreover, leaving so many resources outside would be a hazard in the end.

If someone moved them ahead of time, the loss would be enormous.

In the villa, Wang Hao was not the only one with a drone.

There were quite a few people who had them; they just hadn't used them much before due to a lack of power.

Now that Wang Hao had power supply, there were no issues.

The convoy had two drones following along, searching for safe routes and providing early warnings.

They not only had drones but also FPV racing drones, piloted by an enthusiast.

His control skills were far superior to Wang Hao's, equipped with VR glasses, the FPV drone could swiftly navigate through streets and even corridors.

They could also use speakers to divert the Ghouls and zombies.

With the guidance of professional Lin Yuennan, the convoy was moving smoothly.

However, such a grand operation also drew the attention of some small groups hiding in the shadows.

"Who are these people?"

A man with a scarred face slightly furrowed his brow, watching Lin Yuennan's convoy through the curtain gap.

"Those pickup trucks are not cheap. They are probably from the Blue Sky Villa District."

A short man beside him whispered.

"That box truck in front seems familiar."

"Yeah, it passed by here before too."

"Do you think they're out searching for resources? Dispatching so many vehicles, could they possibly know about a resource warehouse in advance?"

"Very likely, Blue Sky Villa District is full of wealthy people, some might be operating large supermarkets or wholesalers."

...

The small groups were whispering among themselves.

Their resources were very scarce.

Nearby resources were almost all plundered and nearly exhausted.

Many small groups were ready to risk venturing out for resources.

Now that Lin Yuennan had formed a convoy, and those pickup trucks were all empty.

It's hard for them not to have any ideas.

The nearby people still had a yearning for the Seaview Villa District.

Some groups had long wanted to get in there.

After all, it was sparsely populated, had spring water, mountains behind it, and a large tract of land for farming.

Yet, it was too dangerous outside, so they hadn't acted.

The emergence of Lin Yuennan's convoy stirred their restless desires.

"Roar, roar"

The noise of the vehicles was quite loud.

The loudspeaker on the drone couldn't attract many monsters away.

Soon, monsters came chasing.

The truck driver, relying on the truck's large size and power, rammed through if it was only a handful of monsters.

"Report, report, a large group of monsters is rapidly approaching ahead."

The drone operator issued a warning.

"Keep driving!"

Sitting in the truck's passenger seat, Lin Yuennan reminded himself, took out a rifle, loaded it, then rolled down the window.

"Roar, roar, roar."

Quickly, a large group of zombies and Ghouls charged over.

The Ghouls were faster, leading the way.

The zombies weren't too slow either.

Lin Yuennan leaned half out of the window, and with several bursts, bam bam bam bam bam.

The muzzle spat fire, glaring brightly.

A large swath of Ghouls in front was mowed down.

The driver tightly gripped the steering wheel, charging through.

"That Lin Yuennan, quite the sharpshooter."

In a room of a high-rise, Wang Hao lifted the curtain, observing with binoculars.

These people were his subordinates, and the warehouse food was his.

He couldn't just ignore it.

He had to protect from the shadows.

Lin Yuennan's rapid burst earlier wasn't random spraying.

Most of her bullets hit the Ghouls' heads, taking them down directly.

Indeed!

That's how terrifying it was.

At that moment, Wang Hao felt the pressure from a top special force soldier.

Wasn't this far more impressive than some Fire Phoenix?

"Brother, look at what this is?"

Xiaoyueyue approached with something, eager to show Wang Hao as if it were a treasure.

Instinctively turning his head, Wang Hao was immediately dumbfounded.

"Hehe, brother, do you like it? Want to smell it?"

Xiaoyueyue giggled.

Wang Hao almost rolled his eyes and fainted on the spot.

She was holding a black lace item.

Apparently something belonging to the house's original owner.

Judging by the size, though not as grand as Sun Yaoyao's, it was still quite substantial.

Damn!

Wasn't that not the point?

"Uh... did you find any clothes to wear?"

Wang Hao changed the subject directly.

Explaining to a child was pointless.

The more one talked about that, the worse it got.

This house belonged to a family of three, with a small zombie similar in size to Xiaoyueyue.

There should be some clothes for her inside.

"Yes, quite a few, and they look pretty. I'll wear them to show you later, hehe."

Xiaoyueyue smiled sweetly, looking very pleased.

Some guilt welled up in Wang Hao's heart.

Previously, due to carrying and safety issues, he hadn't taken Xiaoyueyue out to search for resources.

Although people in the villa shared some clothes with Xiaoyueyue.

The sizes were somewhat off, and they were all second-hand.

Now that Xiaoyueyue had space-storing ability.

Wang Hao was mulling over taking her to a nearby mall later to get some clothes.

Little girls!

They still need to wear new clothes.

Additionally, he needed to replenish some supplies.

Before the apocalypse, due to financial constraints, there were many things he hadn't purchased.

...

Lin Yuennan's convoy continued onwards.

"Report report, a large group of zombies is gathering ahead, and vehicles are blocking the road, suggesting to change route and detour."

The drone operator issued another warning.

Before setting out, they had re-planned the route.

This road was initially fine, but plans couldn't keep up with changes.

Some people might have driven out searching for food too, causing monsters to scatter.

Without hesitation, Lin Yuennan ordered a route change.

That meant taking a detour.

However, there was no alternative.

After detouring, they still had to avoid zombies, sometimes needing to clear the road.

By nightfall, they hadn't reached their destination.

Lin Yuennan ordered to halt, rest in the vehicle, and depart tomorrow morning.

The night was far more dangerous than the day.

Drones couldn't provide alerts at night.

If unwittingly plunged into a zombie horde, it'd be the end.

Moreover, night was when zombies and Ghouls were most active.

In unclear visibility, the danger level multiplied.

So, they had to rest at night.
