That night, all our convoys gathered at the factory and they targeted us, trying to kill us all. Later, Jiang Yun and Big Beard’s convoy chased them all the way to Ping’a Lake—Big Beard’s team suffered heavy losses, and Jiang Yun’s young brother named Dongdong died there too… But according to later radio transmissions, the quartet still got away. Damn it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she spoke, Shu Qin’s face darkened with fury—clearly, that night’s zombie tide had cost her dearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Lin Xian heard this, he suddenly realized it all, silently cursing inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So the zombie tide had nothing to do with Tang Hai—he was just incredibly unlucky, stumbling into both troubles at once…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dongdong…\" Hearing Shu Qin mention Jiang Yun’s young companion, Lin Xian remembered the young man who had guided them through Quan Pass that night and later warned them to stay safe—his expression softened with regret.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah, they were completely insane.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian nodded, understanding dawning—that night had been terrifyingly dangerous, and now he realized he’d made an enemy of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"By the way, there’s one more person.\" Shu Qin suddenly remembered and returned to the topic, pointing toward a distant spot where a heavily modified large RV was parked by the roadside, and on the ground beneath it sat a sunshade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A young man lay on a beach chair wearing sunglasses, beside him a small table where tea was brewing and delicate pastries were arranged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His relaxed demeanor made him seem like he belonged to an entirely different world from the grim-faced survivors around them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who’s that guy? He doesn’t look like he’s fleeing—he looks like he’s on vacation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"His name is Lu Xingchen. His convoy is just him—he’s a lone wolf. We met him on Dalaoshan, and he helped us a lot on the way to Yubei,\" Shu Qin explained. \"His psychic power is extremely strong—he can take down ordinary weird bodies alone!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Lin Xian’s brow relaxed—he looked over and saw the man sipping tea, lowering his sunglasses to glance at Lin Xian, then raising a hand in greeting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hi~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian waved back, and the man immediately turned away, resuming his tea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After some small talk, Lin Xian learned the general situation of the convoys: Shu Qin’s big-foot vehicle team now had seven vehicles and over thirty people, with moderate weaponry; Xu Jin’s convoy had eighteen vehicles; together, the two teams had three heavy trucks and over a hundred people total; while Old Mo Mo Chengzhi’s convoy consisted of two all-terrain tracked heavy trucks—extremely advanced, carrying not only his family but also several of his old buddies’ families, totaling about twenty-some people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although his convoy included men, women, children, and elders, those two tracked heavy trucks were exceptionally equipped: besides the front and rear tracks, they had six pairs of large off-road tires, wrapped in thick armor, with observation platforms mounted on top—clearly, their interiors were ingeniously designed. Outside, they were painted with a cool-looking pair of sunglasses and the words 【Iron Force Family】.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So why are we all stopped here? What trouble are we facing?\" Lin Xian asked bluntly after the introductions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shu Qin and Xu Jin exchanged glances, their expressions shifting slightly—Shu Qin spoke directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Inside the city, there’s a large weird body!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian frowned. \"You mean that giant jellyfish?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You encountered it too?\" Shu Qin asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian answered frankly: \"I ran into it by accident when entering Dalaoshan, but I got lucky and avoided it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re really lucky, kid!\" Old Mo adjusted his sunglasses. \"Even the Iron Guard Brigade is being pushed back by it. With this thing, all we can do is run.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Besides that, the roads are completely blocked,\" Xu Jin added gravely. \"Every street in the city is jammed with zombies—thick as ants. Add snow and icy roads, and no vehicle can get through. So after spotting those trains heading to the airport, we decided to drive onto the railway tracks and follow them. It’s a hassle, but our vehicles can handle it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Also, there’s fog inside the city now. Those jellyfish move unpredictably, and many survivor convoys have gone silent. So we want to gather more convoys and charge through together.\" \"Wait,\" Lin Xian frowned. \"You said ‘those jellyfish’? Isn’t there only one?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shu Qin looked surprised. \"Definitely more than one. But unlike the giant weird body on Dalaoshan, the ones in the fog are much smaller...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jin shrugged. \"Maybe the big one gave birth to them. Either way, we’ve already spotted several of them in the city.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That explains it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian nodded. \"I understand. The climbing passage is still operational—we can all take the rails. I’ll lead the way, and you can follow behind. If trouble comes, you’ll have better firepower.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The airborne weird bodies still haunted him. Though the Infinite’s defenses were strong now, its external firepower was just a few guns—until the 1130 was built, his fear of insufficient firepower wouldn’t vanish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Shu Qin’s face brightened. \"Wonderful! Lin Captain, with you joining us, our chances are much higher.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Didn’t expect it, kid!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Mo’s attention was entirely on Lin Xian’s train—he strolled over and looked toward the back of the Infinite. \"Didn’t expect you to have an intercontinental nuclear-powered locomotive. How many passengers do you have?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fewer than ten,\" Lin Xian replied without hiding anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To their surprise, all three stared at Lin Xian strangely—Xu Jin exclaimed, \"Fewer than ten people? And you dare drive such a massive train?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bold as hell.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are all your passengers like Lu Xingchen—powerful psychics?\" Shu Qin asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There are ordinary people too,\" Lin Xian replied. \"I’m still looking for suitable teammates to join us. But along the way, we’ve encountered more monsters than people. Just surviving is already a miracle.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this, Shu Qin fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The claim that monsters outnumbered people wasn’t exaggerated—zombies roamed everywhere, weird bodies lurked in every shadow; finding even a few living humans was rare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if you met another survivor convoy, they might be bandits looking to rob you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s why the convoy group gathered by Jiang Yun through the campfire mutual aid network had largely banded together, seeking safety in numbers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even now, meeting Shu Qin again felt more trustworthy than encountering any stranger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this dark forest of the apocalypse, where everyone feared for their life, that trust was rare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then it’s settled,\" Old Mo rubbed his hands eagerly. \"Lin’s train leads, I’ll bring up the rear. Don’t be fooled by the old bones on my trucks—my vehicles aren’t harmless. They’re packed with gear.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"By the way, Lin Captain.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shu Qin walked to her convoy, pulled a box from a storage compartment, and handed it to Lin Xian. \"Last time you fixed my water purifier, I only gave you a crate of canned food—I felt bad about it. Since we’ve met again, I’m giving you this set. You’ll find it useful. These are the reverse-osmosis filter membranes we found yesterday—excellent quality. Now, my and Xu Jin’s purifiers can filter out Level 2 pure water. Even without boiling, the water meets drinking standards—we’ve been drinking it for over a hundred people, and no one’s had any problems.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brothers, new book—please support with monthly votes!
