The System Sent Me an Object [End of the World]

Chapter 43

This dilapidated and old car left Jiang City without hesitation, passed the Nanjiang Highway through Nan City, the county-level city of Jiang City, and soon entered the boundary of Xinghua City, the neighboring city of Jiang City.

Because the road is not very congested, although many zombies have been encountered during the period, there is still no danger in the end.

Xinghua City is surrounded by mountains and is a small mountainous and hilly city. Its development is a bit lagging behind that of Jiang City. However, because of its topography and economic constraints, it has a large area and sparsely populated area.

Although the area is the largest in the province, the population is only 2.65 million, which is the third lowest in the province’s permanent population.

One of the more important reasons for the sparsely populated area is that it is the hometown of overseas Chinese like the opening of the market. There are more than 5 million overseas Chinese in Europe and America, and more than 3 million settled in Hong Kong and Taiwan.

Because of this, after Hao Jian and the others stepped in here, they encountered far fewer zombies than elsewhere. However, judging from the road conditions, there have also been many traffic accidents here, mainly because many people think that Xinghua City is backward and mountainous and suitable for avoiding zombies, so regardless of whether they have a residence here or not, they have swarmed here.

There is only one highway that cannot be used, and there is only one national highway here. Because there are mountains everywhere, construction is difficult, and there is not so much traffic on weekdays, the construction of public transportation in the periphery is far inferior to that of big cities.

Although these places seem to be backward, Lian Ru Ning and others are still fascinated by the surrounding scenery, as if they have forgotten that all places are being devastated by zombies.

“The green mountains and green water here are very suitable for health preservation, the air is good, and there is wind!” Xin Ting sighed.

Hao Jian looked at the map in Lian Ru Ning’s mobile phone and said: “This is indeed suitable for health preservation and tourism. There is the Chashan tourist area in front. Going to the right is the eco-tourism resort area. There are also several reservoirs. The air quality is said to be one of the best in the province. The area… about 56 kilometers west of here are the main towns and urban areas of Xinghua City.”

The distribution map of the main towns and urban areas of Xinghua City looks very much like the sole of the left foot from the map, and is surrounded by hills. Except for the only highway and national highway that crosses densely populated areas from east to west, the entrances and exits of other provincial and county highways are basically concentrated on the urban side.

“If you can pass through the major towns and towns and enter the national highway, and then walk about 30 kilometers, you can enter the boundary of Chengxiang, which is open, and after that, it will be Xiangshi.”

Xiangshi and Focheng are first- and second-tier cities close to Southern City, with a permanent population of more than 8 million, and the level of danger is no less than that of Southern City.

After Hao Jian finished speaking, Peng Mao and Xin Ting both looked at Lian Ru Ning, after all, Hao Jian said she listened to Ru Ning.

Lian Ru Ning, who is driving, is also a little worried. Should he venture across Xinghua City, or should he stay closer?

It would save time if they crossed Xinghua City, but would they have a way to break out of densely populated urban areas?

If you take a long detour, you will inevitably be delayed longer on the road. Originally, it would take two hours to get to Chengxiang from their current location even on the highway. If you need to stop and rest on the road, it may take a day to get to Chengxiang.

Lian Ru Ning could not give an answer yet, but Peng Mao stared at the object in Hao Jian’s hand while clutching his seat, “Where did you get this solar charger? There are also binoculars and these two machetes…”

Hao Jian took out the level rewards, and also bought two machetes in the weapon special of the mall.

They didn’t pay attention when the things were in their backpacks, until Lian Ru Ning’s phone was out of power and Hao Jian needed to use the offline map, she took it out to charge the phone.

As for the telescope, she always let Lian Ruing help to observe the road conditions ahead when she was driving, and after changing her driving, she was in charge of reconnaissance.

She and Lian Ru Ning had the machete alone, the crowbar was given to Peng Mao, and the axe was given to Xin Ting.

Hao Jian’s face didn’t change his face: “Eco and they gave it to you. Otherwise, where do you think it came from, can it be changed out of thin air?”

Under Hao Jian’s normal face, Lian Ru Ning and the others would naturally not be suspicious, and it is not surprising that solar chargers and binoculars were collected by the guards.

Lian Ru-ning just observed it with this telescope and found that someone standing on the roof of a residential building four or five kilometers away could see it. Therefore, a telescope of such a good quality is definitely not one that can be picked up casually on the street.

Based on the relationship between Hao Jian and Yi Gao, they gave her so many good things, and it was common sense.

Thinking of this, they remembered that Hao Jian was just giving someone a thank-you letter, and Peng Mao couldn’t help but sigh again: “You are really good, so why don’t you change your name to’Hao Chu”, although you are also good, but…”

Hao Jian glanced at Peng Mao through the rearview mirror with warning in his eyes. Peng Mao retracted his neck sadly and cast his gaze out the window.

The breeze poured in from the window of the car, and they finally felt the coolness from nature in this hot summer.

Before I came here, even if there was wind pouring in from the window, it would only be warm wind, making my face sticky. Where is it like here, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, and the sounds of birds that cannot be heard elsewhere can also be faintly heard here.

Hao Jian confirmed the roads around here on the system map, and after it was not much different from the offline map, he took his mind back from the system map and said, “Go to the village road Y555!”

Lian Ru Ning must be attentive, and it should be.

Peng Mao and Xin Ting didn’t know how Hao Jian planned to go, so they asked, “Where does Y555 lead?”

“To the national highway.”

Peng Mao and Xin Ting realized that Hao Jian was planning to cross the city.

Hao Jian picked up the binoculars to observe the surroundings, and said, “I just looked at the map carefully. The location relationship between the towns and towns here seems to be radial, scattered, not very dense. But there is one thing, those towns There are not many rural roads. Unlike the prosperous cities, these rural roads are not entirely residential buildings, but farmland. What does this mean?”

“It means that we can avoid densely populated villages or towns before entering the urban section.” Lian Runing’s expression relaxed a lot.

“Well, and you might as well consider the population and geographical environment here. For a mountainous city surrounded by mountains, mountains are a natural barrier! In addition to the roads where zombies can enter directly, zombies must enter by other means. , Can only climb over the mountains, and this may take a year and a half.”

“Yes, isn’t it possible to become a refuge base for millions of people?!” Peng Maoguang imagined the scene of a large refuge base here, and he felt passionate.

However, it is not easy to clean up the zombies here, unless all the guards are concentrated on the construction, otherwise it is difficult to achieve.

They remembered what An Minghui said that the country is so big that there are only a few hundred members of the **** assigned to each city to perform rescue tasks, and there may be only a hundred people in a small city. Every city has people who need their protection, so how can it be possible to mobilize people to build it here?

Thinking of this, Peng Mao sighed again.

Xin Ting did not think as far as Peng Mao, she asked: “Does that mean that such a geographical environment will reduce the number of zombies from outside? And without the threat of so many zombies from outside, all we have to face is the city. Existing zombies… and people?”

“You can think of it this way. To be more optimistic, the population here is only over two million, and the wave of returning home was spreading the news of zombies on the Internet. At that time, the traffic was almost paralyzed, so even before that Many people are lucky enough to come back. As long as the news here is not so closed, the zombie virus will not spread too fast. Of course, if you think about the bad things, 70% of the people here have become zombies, but only one Isn’t it five or six hundred thousand?”

“The population here is indeed less than that of Jiangshi…” Peng Mao counted and stared, “but that’s a lot!”

“You have to think in a good place. These zombies are scattered and scattered. Because there are many living people everywhere, the zombies will not just wander around one place. The land area is 16,000 square kilometers. In terms of the area, the concept of 1.6 million zombies is that there is only one zombie every ten kilometers. If you throw away the area of ​​the mountain, the existence of zombies is not very dense.”

According to Hao Jian’s analysis, they are indeed optimistic. No matter how many zombies there are, there will never be more zombies than Jiangshi?

____

Seeing that there are fewer mountains and forests on both sides of the national highway, and more and more private houses, they know that this is about to approach the flat area of ​​Xinghua City.

The sky above the wind and the sun slowly gathered dark clouds, and the sky looked gloomy, just like the scene of the end of the natural disaster.

“It’s raining soon.” Xin Ting glanced worriedly at the car window on the driver’s side. There is no car window. Once it rains and the rain splashes in, the driver will inevitably become a chicken.

“If you can’t get off for a while, leave here first, and then find a relatively safe place to shelter from the rain.” Hao Jian said.

After speaking, she once again picked up the telescope to observe the environment several kilometers away.

Suddenly, she said again: “Wait a moment, there is a rural road on the right, go there.”

“Is there a situation ahead?”

“Well, the provincial road in front is blocked by a large number of waste cars, even in the farmland on both sides of the road, there are a lot of cars sideways.”

Lian Ru Ning frowned: “What’s the matter?”

“If the map shows no errors, there are villages behind those places. It seems that this is an artificial roadblock, and the purpose may be to prevent outsiders or zombies from entering.”

The reason why they can set up roadblocks is because of the terrain here, with rolling mountains on both sides, and only a national road in the middle. If it were in ancient times, marching and fighting, this place must be easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Fortunately, there are still some mountain roads built along the foot of the mountain that can be detoured, but even Hao Jian can’t tell on the system map whether there are also roadblocks on the rural roads.

After turning into the Xianglu, Hao Jian asked Lian Ruing to stop and drive. Because she has a systematic map, compared to giving Lian Ru Ning the way, their speed will be faster.

It was originally said that the four of them took turns driving, but since Peng Mao always missed the way Hao Jian pointed out, Hao Jian simply took turns with Lian Ru Ning.

Xin Ting was implicated by Peng Mao, so she could only sit behind and formulate a survival strategy according to Hao Jian’s request. She listed all the materials they needed, followed by delineating the places where each city might build a refuge base, and finally, it was necessary to consider various emergencies.

“I’m in a urgency, so I’ll go and come back soon!” Peng Mao said, and went to the weedy woods next to him.

“In this case, let’s rest for a while. I will find something to seal the window of the car first, so that it will not rain and the rain will come in.” Lian Ru Ningdao.

“But we don’t have glass!” Xin Ting said.

Lian Ru Ning thought for a while and took off her sunscreen: “Whether this coat is effective in waterproofing, let’s use it instead, just leave a gap for observing the left rearview mirror.”

As soon as she fixed her clothes on the car window, she suddenly heard Peng Mao’s cry: “Fuck, there are zombies, help!”

I saw that he didn’t even tie his belt, and ran to them with his pants. Behind him were two zombies that followed.

Hao Jian glanced at his seemingly wet pants, suffocated a smile, lifted the machete and Lian Ru Ning and walked behind him.

Peng Mao hurriedly fastened his belt and took out his crowbar in the car to prepare to help Hao Jian and the others, but when he rushed over there, the two zombies had been resolved by Hao Jian and Lian Ruing.

“Huh, these two guys suddenly appeared sneakily and scared me almost to shrink my urine back!” Peng Mao said.

“Is this the reason for you to pee on your pants?” Hao Jian asked.

Her words attracted the attention of Lian Runing and Xin Ting. The two of them subconsciously looked at Peng Mao’s pants. Peng Mao clutched his crotch and cursed: “You three eldest girls, staring at them, don’t Ashamed?!”

“A big man of you will be scared to pee, are you not ashamed?” Hao Jian asked back.

Lian Ru Ning was suffocating a smile, while Xin Ting lowered her head and smirked. When Peng Mao saw this, his face turned red like a hot cooked shrimp.

Seeing the heavy rain was coming, Hao Jian wiped the dirt off the machete and returned to the car.

Just when she solved one of the zombies, the system prompt suddenly popped out of her mind: “Congratulations to the host for killing a hundred zombies, winning the title of’Warrior’ and achievements, and participating in a lottery. Hope the host will continue to work hard!”

At this time, she asked calmly: “The ‘achievements’ have all come out, and I have an illusion that I’m playing games more and more. The system, this world, is it real?”
