Chapter 565 [Journey Around the City]
He Ping finally chose to search on the periphery of the city, indeed, if you go to other cities, although it will take a lot of time, but there is a great possibility of finding survivors, however, He Ping's purpose in coming to this world was originally to open up sales, sell more weapons and equipment, and then let the system be upgraded, only after the system is upgraded, many things in other worlds can find a breakthrough.
If you want to sell more weapons and equipment, then you must find a suitable buyer, both the ability to buy weapons and the need to use weapons, if you don't meet these two points, even if you find survivors, it doesn't have any practical significance, there may be large-scale survivor camps in other places, but there is probably no shortage of things there, even if He Ping goes, the list that can be obtained is likely to be just some mosquito legs.
What He Ping is looking for is instead those small and medium-sized survivor groups in this area full of zombies, these are the most urgent consumers of weapons and equipment and other emergency supplies, as for the reward, He Ping is actually not worried at all, in the last days, the most useful thing is weapons and food, but the most lacking is also weapons and food, as for what gold, silver, jewelry, luxury art, cultural relics, antiques, etc., it is completely useless in the last days.
The most important thing is that because it is the end of the world, the social order is in a state of collapse, in peacetime, it is difficult for ordinary people to obtain, and even many precious items that are rare to see, in the current situation, they are in a state of discarding everywhere, and some survivors may have a collection habit and like to collect this kind of thing, or because they feel that they are prepared, anything can come in handy, and these survivors will collect these things, And He Ping only needs to exchange these things with weapons and equipment and emergency supplies.
Of course, all of this is just He Ping's assumptions, plus hints from the apocalyptic genre. As for what the people in this world think, He Ping doesn't know, but these ideas are very logical, plus this world and the main world are so similar, the experience and ideas brought from the main world should also be universal, besides, even if there are no those things, anyway, He Ping is not short of money, as long as he sells it at the lowest price, he can get war points.
Riding a motorcycle from the Overworld. He Ping started his journey around the city, fortunately, the city is not very big, in terms of scale, it is equivalent to a county-level city in the main world, it is a little worse than Qingshan, if the speed is a little faster, it doesn't take much time to go around, at best, it is about an hour, this time He Ping can still afford to delay.
Go around the city. He Ping also has a deeper understanding of the situation in the city, as well as the outbreak of the virus, which is a typical circular city, with the city center as a circle. Ring by ring, several main roads can lead to the outside of the city, and the intersections of those roads are without exception. It was the same as the intersection He Ping saw at the beginning, with some barricades and bunkers, as well as a lot of wreckage of military vehicles. You can also see some fragments of weapons and the like, and of course, there are still a lot of bones and blood stains that have not been removed.
From these remaining wreckage, He Ping can already imagine the tragic situation at that time, presumably the outbreak of the virus was very sudden, and the sudden outbreak in the old city he passed through before made most of the people there become zombies, even if there are some survivors who have not been assimilated, it is difficult to escape in that situation, and it is estimated that they will soon be attacked by zombies, either becoming the same kind of zombies, or becoming food for zombies.
And after the virus broke out and infected that area, it spread to other parts of the city as the zombie group expanded outward, because the incident happened suddenly, and the virus infected quickly, so people didn't have much time to react, the city was already in chaos, many people had become zombies, and although the troops stationed nearby soon moved, the problem was that the troops were not unaffected, and they were eventually outnumbered, It was only possible to cover the evacuation of a part of the survivors after paying a great price.
As for the survivors who didn't have time to keep up with the pace of the troops, they were either attacked by zombies, or they were in the city to save themselves, such as finding a suitable shelter, and then looking for some necessities, and the survivors also knew that it was impossible to hold on alone for a long time, and if they wanted to live here, they had to form a group, so they would definitely gradually form a survivor community.
Now what He Ping wants to look for is such a community of survivors, maybe he was chased and intercepted by zombies before, so that his bad luck has been exhausted, this time the luck of peace is still quite good, when he rode a motorcycle around the city about a quarter of the way, he saw that there seemed to be a figure in the distance, and it didn't look like a zombie in action, it looked like an ordinary human.
However, the figure just flashed and disappeared immediately, He Ping had no choice but to continue to move in that direction, at least he saw the figure, no matter what there was over there, it was better to go over and take a look in person, He Ping gradually got closer, and he gradually saw the situation over there, it was a camp surrounded by all kinds of tattered garbage, and the figure he saw just now should be patrolling the high wall, but now, He Ping didn't see anyone.
After approaching, He Ping began to slow down, and slowly approached the camp on a motorcycle, now is the period of collapse of social order, it is not strange that anything happens, if the people inside treat him as a robber, it is not impossible to attack him directly, so everything must be done carefully, especially when he has seen a figure just now, and that figure should have seen him.
Squeak!
Just when He Ping was slowly approaching on a motorcycle, a heavy iron gate in the camp slowly opened, He Ping's attention was immediately attracted to the past, in his sight, from behind the gate came out several sturdy middle-aged men, these strong men just stood there, exuding an unconcealable fierce atmosphere, but their faces were deliberately made smiles, together it was an indescribable sense of disobedience, especially these people did not even have weapons on their bodies, This made He Ping's vigilance rise sharply.
