Rebirth In The Apocalypse: Start By Building The Strongest Base

The interrogation was complete.

Qin Jin planned to leave.

He gestured to Gao Qiang and Chen Junchi.

Then, he walked out of the room.

He would leave the rest to them.

Since these people chose to walk this path and had conveniently fallen into his hands,

they couldn't blame him for being ruthless.

The base didn't need such uncontrollable individuals right now.

It wasn't even worth using a single grain of food to demand they do hard labor.

And there was certainly no thought of letting them go.

Giving them any chance was cruel to his own people.

Turning them directly into fertilizer for the earth,

to nourish the living, wasn't that better?

Since he was in the darkness,

then he would become the darkness.

Qin Jin had also considered it himself.

Perhaps one day he too would be captured and executed by a stronger person or force.

But he wouldn't blame them.

He would only blame himself for not being strong enough, for giving them the opportunity to catch him.

Walking out of the room,

he took a deep breath of cold air.

He looked at the sky that was about to darken, lost in thought.

It was almost dark.

Faint screams came from behind him, setting off his increasingly tall figure, giving it an eerie feeling.

Li Bowen and Zhong Yu, who had been waiting beside him, glanced at him and said nothing.

Their experiences during this time had already shown them what kind of world this was.

It was either you kill or be killed.

Don't test others, because you will surely be the one injured in the end.

Everyone was a thinking adult.

Even if Qin Jin usually tried to instill some cruel ideas in them, it wasn't so easy to change a person.

To change a person, the most thorough way was to let them change themselves.

Li Bowen, Zhong Yu, and the other small team leaders like Chen Junchi were like that.

They believed they were adapting to this world.

Their methods of dealing with enemies might be cruel, but it was only to continue living.

Weren't the successful people in history the same?

Only those who live to the end are qualified to write history.

Qin Jin stood at the door for a while, then said to the two people beside him:

"We have an important mission tomorrow. I will personally lead the team out. Meet at the operations conference room in the office building at 8 p.m. after dinner."

The two agreed.

And said that they would notify all team members tonight.

——————————

Dinner time.

Li Xu was once again eating hot meals.

He hadn't eaten rice, meat, or vegetables for a full half month!

Only after experiencing the taste of eating dry rations every meal,

could he appreciate the ordinariness of the past.

Moreover, the atmosphere here was not bad.

During dinner, everyone would chat about interesting things or their views on the outside world and the future.

Only in this stable environment were they qualified to talk about these things.

After Qin Jin finished dinner,

he returned to his residence and came to the secret basement located below the residence.

It had been specially reinforced during construction, and the entrance was hidden in a corner of the study on the first floor.

There would be an important mission tomorrow, which must be taken seriously, so he came here.

This basement was not large, only about 50 square meters, with a height of two and a half meters.

There were many shelves piled up inside, with various things on them.

His favorite snacks, drinks, as well as some canned food, alcohol, cigarettes, etc.

It was like a small warehouse.

A dehumidifier and air conditioner were always on here to keep everything in a constant state.

He then walked to a corner and pressed the wall slightly with his right hand.

With a click.

A drawer-type compartment popped out of the wall.

Qin Jin skillfully flipped through the things inside, which were roughly some books, notebooks, USB flash drives, and even tablet computers.

Selecting one of the notebooks, he took it out and flipped through it, as if he had found his target.

He took out his phone and took some photos of a few pages, then put it back.

Then he restored everything and slowly left the basement and his residence.

He went to the top floor office of the office building.

He took out a tablet, opened the map software, and entered the several addresses that he had just taken photos of into the search in turn.

No doubt.

These addresses were prepared by him long ago!

They were addresses of places nearby that might have helicopters!

These addresses were very likely to find some commercial helicopters!

Yes.

His new goal was a helicopter!

This kind of air transportation was an extremely useful thing.

Communication was difficult and information was blocked in the apocalypse.

If he had a helicopter, he would have unparalleled advantages!

For the time being, he didn't need to think about the military's armed helicopters, it was not the time yet.

Commercial ones were enough for now.

After having commercial ones, it would not be too late to scout the military area.

The speed of an ordinary helicopter was about 200-300 kilometers per hour, with a range of about 800 kilometers.

As long as enough extra fuel was carried on board.

Theoretically, it could achieve a range of more than 2,000 kilometers!! (Forcibly possible)

In this way, he could travel back and forth on the same day to obtain information from a place thousands of kilometers away!

Or directly transport supplies and troops!

For example, to scout the Zhushi military region seven hundred kilometers away.

A round trip might not even take half a day.

After confirming that there were no resisting people and supplies there, he could find a way to rush over to obtain more weapons and heavy firepower!

He could also do path reconnaissance on a certain destination.

Recording road information with equipment during flight could provide a general overview of the situation, allowing him to make too many preparations in advance.

There were too many benefits to describe one by one.

There was still more than a week before the acid rain came. The base was on the right track, the combat team members had received preliminary training, and even his own personal combat power had been qualitatively improved!

If he didn't go now, when would he go!

Moreover, if the acid rain came and damaged these treasures, rendering them useless,

then he would really cry to death.

So tomorrow he would personally lead the team to set off and bring back as many of these treasures as possible!

During those few months of peacetime.

He had taken the time to participate in helicopter pilot training.

Under his money offensive, the coach had taught him everything, giving him a certain ability to fly independently.

In addition, he had spent money to buy a lot of relevant driving knowledge in the later period.

Especially those wealthy targets and places with helicopters, he had spent money to have people confirm the models.

As long as they were not broken.

He was confident that he could drive them back to the base!

8 p.m.

Inside the combat conference room.

Many combat team members were already in place.

Looking at the boss in the main seat, waiting for his speech.

Qin Jin knocked on the table and looked around at the team members present.

Most of them were familiar faces.

He was familiar with everyone when he led the team before, but now there were some new faces, who were members from the defense team and later new recruits.

Such as Gao Qiang and the Sun brothers.

Without delay.

He directly stated tomorrow's mission, and said to everyone:

"Tomorrow I will personally lead the team to set off. We expect to be out for several days and will spend the night outside. All teams will carry out their missions at the same time tomorrow!"

"All teams should check their equipment tonight. I have already had people prepare food, dry rations, and weapons for the trip in advance during the day. After disbanding, go to the equipment room to collect them and load them into the vehicles. There must be enough fuel and other equipment. This mission must succeed and not fail!"

"We are going to Yangcheng, Shenzhen, and even Dongguan, and may even go to the area near the center of Guangyuan City!"

"The specific location is temporarily confidential, and I will tell you later."

"The degree of danger is high, so please take it seriously."

Qin Jin took out a tablet.

After connecting to the projector, he operated it to display a picture.

It listed the names of various items, food, weapons, equipment, everything, and even introduced several tactical arrangements.

"Everyone, take a look. We will spend a few days outside. Everyone can offer good suggestions."

The other combat team members looked at each other.

Several team leaders were the first to react and raised some questions and supplements.

After the atmosphere of the meeting rose, other team members also spoke up and put forward their own suggestions.

Everyone was not too worried about the upcoming mission, because they had grown too much during these days.

The weapons and equipment had also been upgraded, and almost everyone could use a gun.

Although sometimes they didn't fire many shots in order to save bullets or because they were afraid that the sound would attract trouble, at least they could hit close-range targets.

The meeting lasted for more than an hour.

Everyone then disbanded and left to prepare for tomorrow's departure.

The vehicles had already been modified, and they only needed to load the necessary materials for departure.

After seeing the others leave.

Qin Jin also found Qin's father, uncle, and several managers.

He once again explained to them the matters that they would be out for a few days. He had notified them once during the day to prepare some things, and made a final confirmation tonight.

"After we go out, you must control the base well and not let it be in chaos! If there are signs of chaos, don't be soft and kill it directly!"

The others were already accustomed to his iron-blooded and cold-blooded style and said that they understood.

Each of them had seen blood these days.

Although it was the blood of zombies.

Occasionally, they would attract zombies to the walls, and almost everyone in the base was forced to personally kill zombies and accept this baptism of the doomsday era.

After completing all the arrangements.

Qin Jin returned to his office.

Sitting in the boss's chair.

He took out some foreign wine from an unknown place, gently poured half a glass, and lit a cigarette.

He rarely drank alcohol before, because drinking too much would slow down the speed of the body's nerves and affect the judgment of danger.

So in his previous life, when he obtained alcohol, he mostly used it to exchange food for survivors who liked alcohol.

The same was true for cigarettes. Although he also smoked, he usually only smoked when he was in a safe place.

When he was alone outside, he was worried that the smell of cigarettes would attract human survivors other than zombies. Sometimes humans were more terrifying than zombies and monsters.

Now it was different.

He was in a safe base and had a stronger body.

Even if he got drunk tonight, it would be metabolized and returned to normal tomorrow morning.

It would not have any impact.

So recently his alcohol and cigarette addiction had increased a lot.

He took a sip gently.

The mellow aroma mixed with a spicy taste passed through his tongue and throat.

Finally, with a warm feeling, it fell into his stomach.

He took another deep puff of the cigarette, and the tip of the cigarette emitted a bright red light, which was the rapid burning of the tobacco.

He didn't stop until he felt a slight bulging in his lungs.

Slightly holding back.

Enjoying the reaction of the nicotine alkaloid combining with the alveoli.

Finally, he slowly exhaled it.

Turning into a long cigarette arrow and shooting towards the ceiling.

Unconsciously.

It had been more than half a month since the end of the world.

He relaxed his mind.

Squinting his eyes slightly.

Enjoying this moment of safety and tranquility.

——————————

The next day.

The sky was just beginning to light up.

The temperature was about to drop below ten degrees.

The cold wind occasionally blew, announcing that autumn was about to end and winter was about to begin.

The Green Source Base combat team had organized their equipment and was doing the final inspection.

The mission to be carried out this time was more difficult than ever, and it was not an exaggeration to be serious now.

There were as many as 10 vehicles departing this time!

The leader was Qin Jin's car, the Saber-toothed Tiger!

The front of the car was replaced with a newly built, larger and stronger ram and guardrail, which would clear all obstacles encountered along the way for the convoy.

Behind were Li Bowen's modified riot police car, and several modified trucks and heavy trucks, and even two empty modified semi-trailers!

These cars did not carry too many things.

In addition to the necessary supplies for going out these days, other things could be searched for directly on the road.

Moreover, their trip was to find more supplies to bring back.

All 30 members of the combat team had completed their inspection and got into their vehicles.

Inside the quarantine area.

After Qin Jin confirmed that there were no problems, he notified the gate guard.

Then the gate slowly opened.

Under the gaze of others, the convoy slowly drove into the road outside.

Before long, the convoy disappeared at the end of the road.

I don't know what the outcome of this trip will be.
