In the small town called An County behind him, the team of ten people who had come to investigate the situation were silently holding recorders and completely recording the last farm that was brutally slaughtered.
During these days, they have never left An County, but they dared not show up in front of Chen Bufan. Every move they made was very cautious, as if the slightest carelessness would bring about fatal disaster.
Their preconceived ideas made them think that they must be armed with countless guns and ammunition, because Chen Bufan always used mortars, Gatling guns, and various rifles in turn.
Whenever they heard melodious music coming from afar, they knew that a fierce battle was about to begin.
Then, gunshots rang out one after another, and they could only wait quietly until a long time had passed and they were sure that the other party had retreated. Only then did they dare to tiptoe to record the scene and quickly send it to their superior, Manager Qin.
Then, a day's work ends quietly in a tense atmosphere. Although it seems leisurely, the heart is actually in agony.
After Chen Bufan left, the team stayed in An County for another two days.
They listened carefully to the movements around them, afraid of missing any slightest sound.
Only when he was sure that he would never hear the terrifying sound of gunfire again did the leader finally breathe a sigh of relief, knowing that the armed forces had retreated, and then he led his men on the return journey to report to the headquarters.
It must be said that it was precisely because of this leader's cautiousness and his ability to protect himself that they were able to survive many dangerous missions.
Otherwise, if Chen Bufan realized that someone had been following him, he would have come out to ask them, "What are you looking at me like?"
The leader is always thinking that they are all workers, and it is difficult to survive in the doomsday, so it is not worth it to risk their lives.
Although many farms in An County had suffered disaster, at least nearly half of them survived. Everyone was secretly glad for this result.
After all, in this storm full of blood and killing, having such an ending is a blessing in disguise.
Manager Qin also felt lucky. No matter what, he was left with some. His superiors told him that the Beijing base had not sent troops to clean up because they had not yet recaptured An County. However, it would be soon. These farms were destined to be wiped out. Humans would not allow the existence of zombies.
The higher-ups didn't care about these few crystal cores, so they didn't punish him as a low-level employee.
The distance between An County and the capital base is actually not that far. If calculated based on the normal human walking speed, it will only take about a day to reach the destination.
However, today is no longer the peaceful and convenient transportation era before the end of the world.
There are many old cars abandoned on the road. These abandoned vehicles are scattered all over the road. Not only that, countless zombies are wandering aimlessly, and all kinds of strange mutant plants are growing wildly. Some have sharp thorns, and some can release deadly toxins.
There is also a zoo here. The animals inside have also mutated. They have become extremely huge in size and extremely ferocious and brutal. When he passed by, he saw a five-meter-tall chimpanzee who beat a bunch of zombies into meat paste with one punch.
The inconspicuous insects in daily life have also evolved into monsters with powerful attack power.
Chen Bufan walked leisurely alone in this land full of dangers. It took him two full days to gradually approach the capital base.
Along the way, whenever he encountered smaller groups of zombies, he would kill them without hesitation.
But if he is unlucky enough to encounter a large-scale tide of zombies, he will quickly hide and avoid them.
At this moment, Chen Bufan was only dozens of miles away from the Beijing base, and victory seemed to be just around the corner, but as the saying goes, good things take time, and the weather suddenly turned bad.
The sky, which had been gloomy since early this morning, was finally covered with dark clouds. The inky black clouds were pressing very low, and huge lightning flashed across the sky like a sharp sword.
“Rumble—!”
Immediately afterwards, deafening thunder resounded through the sky, and a downpour seemed to be approaching.
At this time, Chen Bufan had already entered the capital city, but in order to truly reach the safe capital base, he still needed to cross half of the city.
Of course, he could also choose to go around in another direction, but that would make the journey extremely long.
Moreover, the villages and towns in that direction are connected to each other, hiding a large number of zombies and various mutated creatures, which is very troublesome.
"Tick!"
A bean-sized raindrop fell without warning, followed by the second drop, the third drop...
Gradually, the raindrops began to fall like beads that had broken off a string, and soon formed a dense rain curtain.
Chen Bufan subconsciously raised his hand to cover his forehead. After taking a quick glance at the sky, he quickly turned around and walked quickly into a slightly shabby store on the roadside.
This store is a hardware store, but at the moment the interior is in a mess, with various tools and items thrown randomly on the ground. It is obvious that someone has been rummaging through something here before.
Many tools such as wrenches and screwdrivers were scattered on the ground, and most of the shelves on both sides, which were originally full of goods, were still full of goods.
Chen Bufan quickly scanned the surroundings, then walked to the shelves and carefully selected tools that would be useful to him but that he didn't already own.
After a while, he picked out a few handy things and put them into his own space.
Then, he took out a few boxes of lunch that he had stockpiled at the beginning of the apocalypse from the space.
He performed the cleaning technique on a sofa, and the dust on it instantly became as clean as new. Sitting on the sofa, he couldn't wait to open a box of lunch, and a familiar fragrance instantly hit his nose.
"I haven't had a box lunch for a long time!" Chen Bufan murmured to himself, with a hint of nostalgia in his eyes.
As he chewed his food, he thought to himself, "I always feel that the food in restaurants is much more delicious than what I cook at home, but I just don't know how they cook it to have more flavor."
When Chen Bufan finished two boxes of lunch in no time, it was raining heavily outside. The raindrops hit the ground and even caused a string of bubbles.
Just as he was sitting there feeling bored, he was thinking about whether he should go back to the spirit world to see his lovely wives at home.
The ground began to vibrate...
