Chapter 50: Supply Depot

The straight road was twisted by the scorching spiral current, a Mercedes truck approached from a distance, and the dust flew behind the convoy ground, which belonged to the wild.

High in the scorching sun, a black shadow swept under the sun, the person in the driver's seat of the truck raised his head and glanced at the sky, only powerful mutated creatures can withstand the scorching heat outside the house, he doesn't have to worry about the convoy being attacked for a while, there will be danger, and the one in the back compartment will also solve this trouble.

The temperature inside the truck was frighteningly high, like a burning steamer, and the people in the driver's seat were already sweating, and even the water in the ground cup next to it was boiling hot. The drowsy co-pilot, who is closing his eyes and recuperating, hates going out in this heat the most.

The roar of the engine echoed across the road, and it was a miracle that it didn't break down due to the heat. On the hot asphalt road, the wheels left two clear black wheel marks on it, which are the traces left by the wheels rubbing against the asphalt road, and the scorching heat caused by high-speed friction is almost melting.

The convoy stopped to rest to cool down the engines to avoid breakdowns, and the drivers also needed to rest, driving in the heat was a difficult task, several drivers were not in good condition, there seemed to be slight signs of heat stroke, they were gathered and gradually regained their strength under the ability to cool down.

The world doesn't last long, and the convoy is set off again, and no one wants to stay in the world for too long in the wilderness, which seems too stupid. In the truck driver's compartment, two drivers are taking turns driving the truck, they are driving westward non-stop, the distance is not too far, just a day's trip, the trouble is the collapsed highway, the road that originally connected each city was cut off, the convoy had to take a detour.

The truck drove into the wilderness, the road became bumpy, and the people in the carriage who were resting with their eyes closed woke up one after another, they didn't even bother to move, the scorching heat had filled the inside with the smell of sweat, it was really uncomfortable, but compared to the heat outside, they were used to it.

"It's almost there!" The driver wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to Jera.

"Hard work Jonny, you go and rest, replace me!" Jera took over the driver's job, he is also a person who has traveled all the way, and naturally knows very well that driving a truck in this high temperature is simply a living sin, and the air conditioning cannot be used in the car at all, and in the case of no power supply, he will definitely not rashly consume a lot of electricity, otherwise he can only walk on foot on the way back.

Li Xin once suggested installing solar panels on the top of the truck, but in the fortress those things were so precious that they were all taken away, even the trucks in which the ruler was ridden. The steward built a solar power station to supply energy to the fortified station. This scorching heat, with an abundance of solar energy, is a great way to generate electricity, and the refueling stations also use this method, at least in the case of fuel shortages.

In fact, in the end, most of the fortress's capacity comes from solar power, and when night falls, 80% of the electricity is unusable.

Although the truck has a spare battery, it can't be used at will, and you can't expect to push the bulky truck back if there's an accident.

The bumpy ride was finally over, and it seemed that the trucks were back on the road, and they didn't know how long the journey had lasted, a day, two days, or more, and they couldn't get through the sun for half of the world anyway.

Li Xin looked drowsy, there were no outsiders in the carriage except for him and Shihan, which was also a privilege of the ruler, the truck was big enough for him to lie down and sleep, and there was plenty of drinking water and food at his fingertips. As for the rest of the people, they can only sit and rest.

The roar of the engine stopped, and their destination arrived, this was the city before Li Xin, and it didn't seem to have changed much. The convoy stopped outside the city, not because the driver didn't want to drive directly into the city, but because a fence appeared on the road.

Li Xin was informed of these things by Tony, and got out of the car with his cloak on, and he found that the road to the ground had been cut off, and not far away, a three-story hut was used as a watchtower, and a person was looking this way, in fact, Li Xin had seen the man waving a rag with a flag on the ground, and he probably waited for a while.

Sure enough, two cloaked landers moved away from the wooden fence and let the convoy go, and Li Xindi's team was directed to the underground parking lot of a nearby building. Where he saw the smiling Grim Reaper, he didn't seem surprised to see him.

"Why are you here?" Li Xin asked curiously.

"Kill Wolf and Claude are here, Xiaoling is also here, if you want to see her, I will let people call!" The tone of the smile was very polite, after all, Li Xin is now the ruler, and the difference in strength between the two sides directly determines the status.

"This is a supply depot?" Li Xin probably guessed the reason. He had already seen the glittering solar panels in the high-rise buildings.

"It's a supply depot, or a shelter!" The smiling grim reaper nodded and said, "In the end, the fortress was limited in its ability to accommodate people, and we suggested that the steward accept it, so we returned here with the convoy and set up a supply depot, which is just now taking shape." However, you came at a good time, we need your help to open up the waterworks tunnel, the other members here have things to do, and as for the other people, to be honest, it is purely to die. ”

The Smile Grim Reaper led them into a fairly well-sealed room, where the air conditioning was running, and when did the temperature drop, a few people saw the group come in, cast curious glances in this direction, and then whispered a conversation.

This room is used by other people to rest, after all, this kind of weather is running around, and it is easy to suffer from dehydration and heat stroke. After all, they would have been in a dark corner instead of running around the supply depot on a hot day.

The temperature has dropped a lot, and the people in the convoy are recovering a little, and they are taking the opportunity to rest and rehydrate themselves.

Smiling Death gave Li Xin the matter of the supply station, not long after, Catwoman came, followed by Kill Wolf and Claude, they also looked sweaty, and they were a little surprised to see Li Xin appear, after all, the other party is now the ruler, and the difference in status between the two sides is really big.

Catwoman didn't give Li Xin a good look, and she is still complaining that Li Xin is developed, and she doesn't help pull it up, so that a few of them can live a good life. Of course, this is just a verbal complaint, no one cares about this, as for why, everyone knows it, why bother to say it!

The Smiling Grim Reaper is seizing time to establish a defensive line, intending to create a buffer zone before nightfall, the overlord of the city is dead, and they need to be wary of just a few mutant beasts, as long as the number does not gather in groups, an elite capable person can solve it, and it can also provide food, killing two birds with one stone.

Li Xin found that there were really a lot of people here, and there were quite a few of them. Catwoman told Li Xin that when they arrived, they gathered all the survivors in the city through the loudspeaker, probably only a few thousand people, all of them were able to have such efficiency and build the foundation in a short time, of course, the problem of food was a big problem, and several hunting teams barely filled everyone's stomachs, and many mutant beasts in the vicinity were hunted out because of this.

This incident made Shihan feel a little emotional, such a large city, originally there were at least hundreds of thousands of people, and after a long world, there were only these people, and only one of the more than a hundred people lived, and the cruel natural elimination was really terrifying.

When these people heard about the last fortress, they all rose up and became positive, who didn't want to go back to the old days, so everyone worked so hard to build their own homeland.
