Chapter 737: Hidden Granaries ( 1 )
A few minutes later, Jin Xuyan finally said, "Alright. We accept this mission." Standing up, he added, "Commander Volkov, please show the warehouse to my members. We will give you the supplies first."
"Thank you, Captain Jin," Lustin Volkov said delightedly.
As he led them away, Zhang Yuan took the map from the desk and put it in his pocket. Du Beiye saw this but said nothing. She had already asked Krayan to scan the entire city and find the locations of the granaries, including those hidden granaries.
While Feng Yun, Pei Yixie, and Xiao Qi went to the warehouse area, the rest of the members went to the residence to check on their equipment.
Even with their energy infused into their blades, they were still damaged after being used for fighting for a long time. So, they needed Wen Kai and Wen Mo to repair them.
As for their airguns, they needed Qin Luzi to refill the magazines. There were still a lot of metal bullets stored by Feng Yun, so they could ask him for more later.
Meanwhile, Jiang Ziyi finally came out of the operating area in Jiao Lizhi’s space. At this moment, there were 3 areas in the grassland near the house where countless chimeras and mutants were sleeping.
Standing in front of a bed, he looked at the unconscious man and said, "Gaia, keep an eye on Feng Yuxuan. Inform me the moment he wakes up."
"Understood."
It had been 10 days since he opened Gaia’s laboratory. Even with his extraordinary body constitution, he was still tired after doing non-stop surgeries for 10 days straight.
Jiang Ziyi stretched his sore muscles and said, "I’m going to sleep. Help me keep an eye on them."
"Great Commander, you can rest with ease. I will inform you the moment the data show an anomaly."
"Thank you."
After he took a bath and fell asleep, Feng Yuxuan’s eyelashes moved slightly, as if he was trying to wake up. But after a moment, he sank back into the darkness.
At the same time, Feng Yun, Xiao Qi, and Pei Yixie had already reached the so-called warehouse. They looked at the hall and asked, "Commander Volkov, are you sure you want to store the supplies here? With this building’s condition, you can’t store the grains for long."
"My people are still cleaning up the nearest granary, so we can only use this building temporarily to store the supplies."
Since he had said so, they said nothing and started taking out the supplies. They didn’t know what the Lunar Base lacked, so they just took out the supplies according to the list used by Xun Che before.
To avoid people freezing to death, they added winter clothes to the list. While they were taking out the supplies, the Lunar Base’s guards noted down the items and the amounts.
When they saw the winter clothes, one of them said, "Sir, we don’t need the winter clothes. The weather is so hot. Can you give us more summer clothes?"
Hearing this, Xiao Qi said, "Brother, winter is coming at the end of this month. Are you sure you don’t want these winter clothes?"
"Winter is coming? We didn’t hear anything about it," the guard said in shock.
"Your city has been abandoned by your leaders. They won’t bother to tell you this information," Pei Yixie said.
The moment the guards heard this, their hearts chilled.
They had been loyal to the Empire for so many years, but when they faced a crisis, the Empire abandoned them like useless pawns. Perhaps only by following the Vice Mayor would they be able to find a way to survive.
As they reached this conclusion, their hesitation disappeared, and their resolve to build an independent base became firmer.
Pei Yixie glanced at them and said, "Now is the apocalypse. Naivety will only kill you and the people you want to protect."
Although the guards could only understand simple English, they still understood the Phantom Team members. After all, their English was fluent, and they had almost no accent.
"Thank you for your reminder, Lady," the guard said with gratitude.
Two hours later, they finally filled up the entire hall and returned to the temporary residence.
With enough medicine, Jiao Lizhi, Mo Junjie, Yin Yusheng, and Gao Bohai no longer needed to help out in the health center. They regrouped with the team and checked their equipment.
After Jiao Lizhi distributed some pond water, crystal cores, and Sthanam crystals to the members, they finally left the base at midnight.
Because of the zombie cockroaches’ and matkuna soldiers’ attacks, Lunar City was free from zombies, but the roads were damaged. So they rode motorcycles when they left.
Right now, there are several groups of guards guarding the gates on the metal walls. Thanks to the metal walls, the Lunar Base was able to expand its territory. With so many ruins behind the metal walls, they could use them to rebuild houses and distribute them to the survivors.
When the guards saw the Phantom Team, they quickly opened the gate.
Although the wall was made of metal, the door was made of wood, created by Zhou Huajian. While the wooden gate was heavy, it was lighter than a metal gate. With ten people pushing the gate, they could open it.
As they drove past the gate, Xiao Qi waved his hand, and several boxes of mineral water, snacks, and protein bars appeared not far from the guards.
"Thank you for your hard work, brothers!"
When the guards heard this, they could only see his back. They were surprised by his generosity but didn’t plan to refuse. They were tired, hungry, and thirsty. These supplies were crucial to them.
The Phantom Team drove for two hours before they reached the suburban area. Zhang Yuan opened the map and said, "The nearest granary is 2 kilometers away."
"Old Qin, can you check the location?" Jin Xuyan asked.
Qin Luzi checked his map for a moment before he said, "Captain, there are a total of two granaries in this area." Pointing to the map, he continued, "This is one, and this is the other one."
"It seems this one is a hidden granary," Yuan Ruiyue muttered in a low voice.
