Coming out of Chen Fei's office, Wang Hua was still waiting outside, he took Ling Ju and Zhou Zimo to the infirmary for a simple physical examination, and then arranged for the two to live next door to Chen Fei.

In fact, this physical examination has no other purpose, mainly to check if the newcomers are showing signs of being eroded by the green mist, so as to prevent them from mutating and causing chaos after entering the base. Chen Fei did a good job of this, and it was also one of the reasons why this base was able to develop and grow later.

As the days passed, Ye Cheng's misfortune continued, and Ling Ju gradually integrated into the life here, she figured out what a "scavenger" was and what a riot was, but Zhou Xueli and his wife had not received any news, and then she basically lost hope, and watching Zhou Zimo grow up every day was her greatest happiness.

In the face of the sudden disaster, two extreme groups of people appeared among the citizens who did not come to Yecheng and those who fled. One is the survivors in each base, who have experienced panic, hesitation, and despair, and gradually returned to this place after being contained by the survivor base, all of whom are united in their efforts to survive, helping each other, and uniting like never before.

The other group is the complete opposite, mostly made up of men, who are desperate for the future and even go crazy under the double disaster of the zombie virus and the city lockdown. Citizens who have lost their minds rush to the streets in droves, wreaking havoc, fighting zombies, and even abusing other survivors! They have changed from victims to perpetrators, wandering the streets all day long, putting into practice everything that was once expressly prohibited by law.

However, Yecheng's administrative structure had completely collapsed as early as the second day of the disaster, so this group of people became more and more crazy, and even lost their humanity and became living "zombies", and it is not known how many of them were infected by the virus and mutated.

It was in such days that sixteen years passed in a hurry. In the past sixteen years, things are not people, and the pattern of Yecheng has undergone earth-shaking changes.

The first two years were the most turbulent, and humanity, which had not yet established itself in the catastrophe, soon encountered a crisis of food shortages, and many of the newly established survivor bases did not survive this stage, disappearing in the competition for resources.

Immediately after the arrival of the most tragic stage, at the end of the second year, there was an "airdrop incident" in the city, the outside army suddenly began to drop supplies into the city, and the people who were about to faint from hunger did not care about the friendship between the bases, and began to fight wildly, for a while, the corpses were everywhere, however, at this time, the terrifying zombie tide also broke out again......

When everything subsided, nearly 70% of humanity disappeared, and I don't know how many bases were abandoned, and the remaining survivors had to regroup to form the Crescent Alliance to survive in the end times.

But after all, the heavens still favor human beings, although the zombies have continued to impact various safety zones over the years, but they are all dwarves and ordinary zombies, and they have not seen those special high-level monsters, it seems that they have already left Yecheng, and there is no longer the terrifying corpse tide accompanied by a wide range of infectious green mist, so that human beings can finally be in a safe corner, and the total number of people is gradually showing an increasing trend.

Sixteen years later, the Crescent Alliance gradually took shape, and the people established several safe zones in the city, built walls and other fortifications, and also remade the chronology, known as the Crescent Period, with the date of the Alliance's establishment as the first year. Gradually, people slowly got used to life in the Alliance, and even the army in lockdown began to add some special arms and weapons to the airdrops, which indirectly helped the Alliance establish its first armed force, the Doomsday Defense Force.

……

On March 18, the 16th year of the new moon, the Red Maple Safety Zone of the Crescent League.

At this point, it was getting late and it was curfew time. In the night, 4 figures slipped quietly past and headed for the security gate of the Eastern District.

"Zimo, do you really want to do this? If we are caught by the defense forces, we will be miserable when we go back! The little fat man in the four-person team said reluctantly.

"Shut up, why are you so cowardly? Look at Xiaojie! It's not as good as a girl. The leading boy sarcastically said to the little fat man who spoke.

"Zhou Zimo! You are looking for death, dare to compare me with the fat man! The girl behind him scolded.

"Alright, alright, stop making trouble! It's all in place! The boy was left to interject.

In front of it was the security gate of the Eastern District, and under the searchlight, two armed guards were on duty in front of the gate. The four of them were now hiding behind a wall pier, all sixteen or seventeen-year-olds, their faces flushed, their expressions excited and a little frightened.

The leader is Zhou Zimo, sixteen years have passed, he has grown from a baby waiting to be fed to a young man, his thin cheeks are well-defined, although he is still young, he is already a very handsome guy. They are a group of teenagers who have grown up with the Crescent Alliance, and they are also an emerging force in the Alliance.

Behind Zhou Zimo is Chen Xiaojie, a childhood sweetheart who grew up with him since childhood, she is one year older than Zhou Zimo, and she is also a beauty, with long brown hair tied into a ponytail, showing a heroic posture, and she is also the daughter of Chen Fei, chairman of the Red Maple Safety Zone of the Crescent Alliance. The two have lived together since childhood, and in the past 16 years, they have experienced several changes together, and their relationship is extraordinary.

Standing to the left of Chen Xiaojie was the boy Cao Yijin who spoke last just now, his grandfather was the director of the Cao Family Martial Arts Hall in Yecheng, and of course he also inherited the martial arts passed down from generation to generation by the Cao family. In the disaster, the Cao family suffered heavy losses, and later when they helped establish the Red Maple Safety Zone, Cao Yijin and Zhou Zimo also knew each other.

The last little fat man is called Tang Chengyu, but his life experience is the most tragic among them. Tang Chengyu was picked up by Chen Fei from outside when he was seven years old, and he has been a little stunned, he can't even tell his own situation, and he doesn't know where his parents are, he only knows that his name is Tang Chengyu, and since then, he has been living with Chen Fei's family.

"Listen, I'm telling you once, every month today, the district will send a convoy to Crescent City to deliver supplies, and the time is fixed at eleven o'clock, and our opportunity is when they stop for inspection." Zhou Zimo said and looked at his watch, "There are still 13 minutes before the convoy comes, the routine inspection of the defense team will not be too careful, and after the inspection, we will take the opportunity to follow the convoy out of the city, do you hear clearly?" ”

"Good!" Chen Xiaojie was the first to nod.

"Listen to you." Cao Yijin also said.

"I ......" The little fat man Tang Chengyu was still a little hesitant, but now, he could only be forced to get in the car, "Okay, I'll go with you." ”

"Good! Again, you must listen to me after you go out, otherwise we will definitely not be able to keep up with the convoy coming back after a long delay, and we don't want to die! Zhou Zimo looked at the darkness in the distance and admonished, and everyone nodded in unison. From childhood to adulthood, Zhou Zimo is almost the same existence as the child king in their group of children, plus there is a Chen Xiaojie who always supports him unconditionally, and everyone is used to listening to his command.

After a while, there was a rumbling sound of traffic on the not very wide road.

"It's coming!" Zhou Zimo let out a low sigh.

I saw a convoy gradually driving out of the darkness, two small cars in front and five trucks in the back. Each car is painted with a red maple leaf and equipped with iron thorn armor to defend against zombies.

The convoy slowly stopped in front of the security gate, and after everyone got off the car and lined up, the sound of the whole team reporting the number sounded, and the security inspectors began to routinely inspect the vehicles one by one, and Zhou Zimo took advantage of the night to quietly slip from the wall to the darkness under the eaves across the road, waiting quietly.

After a while, after all the vehicles were checked, the security inspector shouted a few words into the walkie-talkie, waved his hand to the front, and went back. But he didn't notice the children who suddenly came out of the darkness on the side of the street, and they slipped into the last wagon like a ghost.

In fact, this can't be blamed on the carelessness of the security inspectors, after so many years, who doesn't want to hide in a safe zone? Unless necessary, no one wants to venture into the zombie-infested ruins outside, let alone Zhou Zimo's "smuggling behavior", so routine inspections are generally to see if there are forgotten goods in the carriage.

As the inspection was completed, the drivers of the cars returned to their positions, and the defense team also opened two security gates, and the convoy slowly drove into the darkness outside the doors.
