【066】Urgent preparations
The two of them sat in a simulated car model and walked all the way, Chu Lei had met them before, so he knew a general direction, and he carried his own radar, it stands to reason that it should not be difficult to find someone, after all, the shelves in the supermarket are placed very neatly, and they can always be found by sweeping them one by one.
But the result was that the two of them searched for more than ten minutes, but they still didn't see half a figure, and Chu Lei didn't perceive the fluctuation of spiritual energy.
"They're probably chasing into the depths of the supermarket." Chu Lei said in a deep voice, the outer periphery has basically been swept away, and the inner perimeter is pitch black, in the case of being chased, it is very likely that the fleeing stranger entered the depths of the supermarket in order to escape the pursuit.
The surrounding light was getting dimmer and dimmer, and only a shadow could be seen on the goods on the shelves, and this position was even more than the depth at which Chu Lei had encountered the mutant rat in the first place!
"I'm sorry, but I can only go here, and if I go any deeper, I will get to the hidden location of the insect tide." Chu Lei stopped the simulated car model, although he wanted to help Chen Mu, he also had to consider his own safety, it was already his limit to be able to get to this position!
"I don't need to apologize, you don't owe me anything, I'm already very grateful to be here, you go back, I'll find it myself." Chen Mubao smiled, those two were his companions who depended on each other, he couldn't give up, unlike Chu Lei, Chu Lei regarded the safety of his life as the first element, but he had a different experience, but he valued the friendship of life and death more, if it wasn't for the protection of his friends when he first entered the last days, he would have died before he awakened his ability!
"I don't recommend you go, there are not only insect tides here, but also giant rats, bats and other large creatures, even if you have the ability to encounter these monsters, there is no chance of survival." Chu Lei also had a good impression of Chen Mu, and kindly reminded him.
"Haha, death is death, revenge is revenge, you go back first, remember to help me prepare two batteries when you are free, and I will find you to get it if I have a life." Chen Mu laughed, and after saying a word teasingly, he left the simulated car model under Chu Lei's gaze and ran towards the depths of the supermarket, and soon after, his back disappeared from Chu Lei's sight.
Chu Lei closed the car door, took one last look at the depths of the supermarket, shook his head, and drove away with the simulated car model, he didn't think that Chen Mu would be able to come back, but he still had some expectations in his heart, it was not easy to meet such an interesting person in the last days.
Soon, Chu Lei returned to the location where the hiding place was, and at this moment Su Ling had also returned, and was sorting out the materials with Wang Hao and others, after Chu Lei explained, he left and drove towards the toy area, Chen Mu had already explained to him in the car just now, and he was full of urgency at this moment!
In Chen Mu's account, they are like being on the edge of a time bomb at this moment, once this "bomb" countdown is cleared, then all the human survivors in this supermarket will be destroyed in an instant!
According to the news that Chen Mu heard, when the number of creatures in this supermarket reaches a certain level, a large-scale insect tide will erupt, and all the gathered creatures will gush out, and it can even affect the surrounding area of hundreds of kilometers, and it is said that the outbreak of this insect tide will also attract real giant beasts, which is an extinct disaster for human beings, but in front of those giant beasts, this is just a gluttonous feast!
Chu Lei didn't know when the supermarket he was in broke out, and he didn't even know if the situation was really as serious as Chen Mu said, but he was already ready to leave in his heart, but he didn't dare to delay any longer, he didn't want to gamble with his life, if it was really like what Chen Mu said, it would attract a large number of giant beasts at that time, even if he had a simulated car model with super protective performance, it would be in vain!
It didn't take long for Chu Lei to come to the toy area, and immediately hurriedly attached the spirit line to the wheel to control it to steer, which was much more difficult than Chu Lei imagined, because there was no steering function, and it was not like a tank track that could be controlled differently, Chu Lei could only let it move forward again and again, backwards, and use its own weight plus the additional power of the spirit line to achieve the steering effect.
When the steering was completely completed, more than ten minutes had passed, and Chu Lei's forehead had already broken out with fine sweat, and the sense of urgency coupled with the spirit of controlling the consumption of the engineering vehicle made his consumption much larger than usual, but fortunately, the engineering vehicle finally completed the direction reversal.
Wiping the sweat stains on his forehead, Chu Lei made up his mind in his heart, if he wants to find a simulation model in the future, he must look for the kind with steering function, and after these few minutes of distraction, Chu Lei also thought about it, although Chen Mu said that the outbreak of the insect tide is very dangerous, but it is impossible to think that there are no signs at all, and it is useless to be in a hurry now, after figuring this out, it made his tense nerves relax a little.
The two model cars, one large and one small, returned to the area where the hideout was located, and it was a troublesome thing to turn around, so Chu Lei had told them to sort out the materials they were going to take away to the edge of the shelves, so that they only needed to be loaded, and there was no need for the engineering vehicles to carry out a troublesome steering operation again.
When Chu Lei came back, Wang Hao and the others were transferring the materials according to his instructions, and more than 20 people were like ants moving, and they were very busy.
"Wang Hao, you take two people to block the window of the cab of the engineering truck." Chu Lei called Wang Hao and explained that the engineering vehicle is not like a simulated car model, which can open and close the door, but it also has a driving space, and the internal space is quite large, the entrance is the windows on both sides, as long as the window is blocked, the cab can become a safer refuge.
Wang Hao knew that it was their future hiding place, and he didn't dare to delay, so he hurriedly started a new round of assignment.
In less than half an hour, a pile of materials like a hill has been stacked on the side of the engineering vehicle, and Wang Hao and others have also blocked the cab window of the engineering vehicle, becoming a movable door that can only be opened.
At this time, the sky outside has also begun to gradually darken, according to other experience, the insect tide will break out at 9 o'clock or 10 o'clock in the night, considering that the sun sets slowly in summer, and everyone also needs some time to hide in advance, full of calculations can fight for another hour.
More than 20 minutes later, two single-plank bridges linked by pencils were completed, and the materials began to be carried to the construction trucks.
An hour later, the rear compartment of the engineering vehicle was filled with two-thirds of the materials, completing the total amount of materials that Chu Lei had set at the beginning.
It's not that he doesn't want to carry more, but because of the weight problem, if he carries too many things, it will seriously affect his speed, after all, this is not driven by electricity, but by his mental power, even so, this has reached the limit of what he can bear.
As Chu Lei expected, it was already night, but the insect tide still did not break out, Wang Hao and the others returned to their hiding place, and those survivors were covered by Chu Lei with iron bowls, not to mention the rest, with the protection of iron bowls, they could spend the night safely if nothing else.
The preparations have been prepared, Wang Hao and the others have already rested, Chu Lei is still busy, there are still two right-angle bends to the entrance of the supermarket, and while there is still time, he will finish it first.
