The Last Plant Controller

“…5 rings, 3 rings, off target! I hit it too high again this time!”

Qian Xu reported the number of rings one by one, and put down the telescope hanging around his neck.   The original owner of this place dropped it here when he evacuated in a panic, and Qian Xu took it as a treasure.

“Off target again?”

After hearing the numbers reported by Qian Xu, Shi Xuanxuan, who was standing on the shooting platform of the shooting range, couldn't help but feel a little discouraged. She put down the gun, shook her numb hands, and then picked up the gun again to aim.

“Don’t worry, take your time.”

Lin Chen next to her also put down the gun and comforted her with a smile.

After more than two days of guidance and training from Qian Xu, Lin Chen’s shooting skills have made considerable progress. In the last round, he was able to achieve an average score of seven or eight rings on the fixed target of 80 meters. He has the bonus of supernatural powers and has learned a lot of tricks from Qian Xu. It is expected that he can achieve this level. As for Shi Xuanxuan, although her progress is not as good as Lin Chen, it is also precious for a girl.

Even Qian Xu, who was good at shooting, privately recognized Shi Xuanxuan.

"You have done well. After all, shooting skills are not something that can be mastered in just a few days of intensive training. The key is to remember what I said. The recoil of the rifle should be greater, and the muzzle can be pressed down a little when aiming. Also, this is a fixed target. If it is a moving target, you must calculate the lead time."

Qian Xu reminded him of the key points again, then drank the Coke in his hand in one gulp and threw the bottle off the stage.

In the past two days, he was the most leisurely of the three. Except for a few times when he picked up the gun to demonstrate shooting to Lin Chen and Shi Xuanxuan, the rest of the time he was either watching the two training or waiting for dinner, or looking at the scenery - although the bare Longqi Mountain is not a good scenery, it is better near the shooting range, at least you can see some greenery. In Qian Xu's own words, just think of it as an autumn outing here.

"Is it almost one o'clock?"

Lin Chen looked at the sky and then at the watch, and found that it was almost one o'clock in the afternoon without realizing it. He then remembered that the three of them hadn't had lunch yet.

"I just reminded you, but you were so focused on shooting that no one paid attention to me."

Qian Xu shrugged innocently, indicating that it was not his fault.

"You said that we should treat the training as actual combat. It's better not to fight if you are laughing and joking." Lin Chen directly blocked him with Qian Xu's words.

"Well, you did treat it as actual combat... After two days, you almost emptied a box of bullets."

Qian Xu muttered a little distressed. That was nearly a thousand bullets, and he emptied one-tenth of the harvest this time. However, the attitude of the two people also made him very happy. Everyone hopes that the people around him are willing to make progress. Besides, it may be difficult to find such an opportunity for the two to train freely in the future.

Not every place is as safe as Longqi Mountain!

In the past two days, gunshots have been heard frequently on the empty mountain. If it were placed somewhere else, I'm afraid it would have attracted a lot of zombies. But in this shooting range, except for the dozen zombie birds that flew by yesterday afternoon and caused a little trouble to the three people, there were no other zombies. Even those zombie birds were used as moving targets by Qian Xu, showing off to Lin Chen and Shi Xuanxuan!

"Shoot for another afternoon and leave tomorrow."

Lin Chen could feel that his shooting skills quickly stagnated after breaking through a stage. Continuing to practice was not very useful, but wasted ammunition. To continue to improve his shooting skills, he needed long-term actual combat shooting!

However, although it felt refreshing to shoot with an automatic rifle, Lin Chen knew that his foundation was still in his supernatural powers. The extravagant training in the past two days was just an unexpected harvest of tens of thousands of bullets. Once these bullets were used up, he could only rely on his own supernatural powers!

"Well, I'm tired of seeing this place."

Qian Xu also agreed with Lin Chen's proposal. After being bored here for two days, his bones were a little itchy. It was for the same reason that he chose to leave with Lin Chen.

"But what about the diesel generator?"

The speaker was Shi Xuanxuan, who found it in the basement of the shooting range guesthouse with Lin Chen yesterday. With the generator and the few barrels of stored electricity, the three of them regained electricity more than a month after entering the apocalypse, and fully charged the batteries of tactical flashlights and several walkie-talkies. For the three of them, this generator is still very valuable, and it would be a pity to just leave it behind.

"Find a way to find a big truck, and we'll take it along with the diesel."

Lin Chen thought about it and quickly made up his mind. As they had more and more supplies, they needed a big truck to carry all kinds of food, generators, fuel and bullets. They didn't need a super-large logistics van like Uncle Ling had, an ordinary truck would be enough.

Qian Xu shook his head and spread his hands and said, "I've looked here, there are only two abandoned cars, and none of them meet the requirements."

"Then go to the town near the foot of Longqi Mountain, at most you'll have to make an extra trip."

When he spoke, Lin Chen had some unquestionable momentum. As his experience in the apocalypse increased and his personal strength improved, he also grew up unknowingly. Shi Xuanxuan could feel his subtle changes, but she didn't think it was wrong, because most girls like strong men, which can give them a sense of security. For girls in the apocalypse, that feeling is naturally stronger.

"Longqi Mountain Area is quite remote, what about the nearby towns..."

Qian Xu thought about it for a while, then suddenly slapped his thigh and said: "Go to Zhaoyang County. It can be reached at most two hundred miles after leaving Longqi Mountain!"

"Zhaoyang County?" Lin Chen picked up the map from the car and looked at it. He found that there was really no better choice than this, so he decided on it.

After the last half-day of training here, the three of them drove away from Longqishan the next morning. Qian Xu still took the lead and headed straight to Chaoyang County in the northwest. After driving out of the bumpy mountainous area, the speed of the car suddenly increased, and we arrived in Zhaoyang in less than two hours.

Lin Chen's first impression of this city was: underdeveloped.

Because it is located near a mountainous area and has few resources, the economy of Zhaoyang County is average. In China, it can only be regarded as a third-rate small city. According to Qian Xu, there are only 600,000 people in Zhaoyang County at most, and there are still many people working outside. However, this is good news for the three of them. Fewer people means fewer zombies!

"If you're just looking for a car, you don't have to go into the county. You should be able to find one on the outer ring road."

After speaking on the walkie-talkie, Qian Xu turned the car and drove onto the outer ring road. Perhaps it was because there weren't many people here. Lin Chen didn't see a few zombies along the way. The roads here have generally remained as they were when the Resident Evil crisis first broke out. Many cars that had been involved in car accidents were parked crookedly on the side of the road, and there were black stains of dried blood on the ground.

"There's a good car over there!"

After driving at a reduced speed for four or five minutes, Qian Xu quickly found a large truck that stopped against the road railing. Unfortunately, when he got closer, he discovered that there was no key in the car and had to abandon the car.

"Bang!"

Lin Chen in the car took back the rifle that was sticking out of the window. He had just killed a zombie that was staggering close to Qian Xu. Because it was a headshot, Lin Chen couldn't help but wave to Qian Xu with some pride.

"Good job, okay, move on."

Qian Xu gave him a thumbs up and returned to the car to continue searching along the way. This time he found another white van.

From the outside, this car looks like it is used to deliver drinks, food and other goods to supermarkets. It was just the right size and fast enough for their needs. More importantly, the car has the key and the gas tank is full, just waiting for them to drive away...

"Okay, it looks like my Santana can be retired."

Qian Xu patted the car he found randomly when leaving the detention center, feeling a little reluctant to leave it. However, he quickly took off the key chain from the steering wheel and opened the lock at the back of the car: "Come, let's move things in together."

"Huo, it's fully loaded!"

After opening the compartment door, the three of them unexpectedly found that it was filled with boxes of various drinks, including green tea, cola, and milk. After leaving a box of each item, the three of them threw the extra ones down, and then moved the ammunition, food, etc. from their cars up.

After ten minutes of struggling, Qian Xu suddenly became a part-time truck driver.

"Let's go back the way we came."

Lin Chen said hello and was about to leave, but at this moment, a man drove a motorcycle out of the county town. What surprised the three of them even more was that there was actually an open jeep chasing after them. As the distance got closer, Lin Chen could even see the anxiety and anger of the man riding the motorcycle, as well as the arrogance of the two people on the jeep behind him.

"Forget it, let's go."

Lin Chen didn't want to meddle in other people's business, so he turned on the intercom and spoke to Qian Xu. But just as the two cars started to start one after another, the people on the motorcycle spotted them and started shouting for help.

"Brothers in front can help me, but the people behind are chasing me!"

As if to verify his words, a young man with yellow hair and tattoos on the jeep behind shouted loudly: "Liu Yi, stop for me quickly, or don't blame us for being rude!"

Lin Chen suddenly hesitated.
