BXBX NOVEL Chapter 95 - 95: Set Off Now
Ji Zan remained vigilant, holding the hunting rifle and raising an eyebrow. “What kind of cooperation do you have in mind?”
Liu Xuezhou didn’t continue forward and said directly, “To be honest, our team found the food storage warehouse three days ago, the same one you went to today! We left some people to guard it. However, there are too many zombies inside, including many zombie dogs. It’s difficult for just a few people to get in.
So we’ve been at a stalemate. Now that we’ve encountered you, we can cooperate and split the food evenly.”
Ji Zan asked, “How many people do you have?”
Liu Xuezhou counted on his fingers, “Including both men and women, about twelve. And what about you?”
Ji Zan pondered for a moment. “If we exclude the elderly and women, we have only five people capable of fighting.”
“Seventeen people will do just fine! The more people, the better the chance. Besides, you’re in a difficult situation, and we’re also eager to get the food. So we’re willing to take the risk and contribute our entire manpower. The resources will still be divided equally. How about that?” Liu Xuezhou looked confidently at Ji Zan, thinking he wouldn’t object.
Ji Zan’s expression turned serious. “Leave your address, and we’ll discuss it with our team and decide. We’ll give you an answer before noon tomorrow.”
Liu Xuezhou nodded decisively. “Go north from here, and there are four RVs. That’s our base! We live in the vehicles.” After saying that, he got back into his car and left.
Xia Dong immediately said, “Ji Zan, can they really be so kind? Giving up such a big benefit?”
Ji Zan replied, ‘We’ll discuss it when we get back.” He entered the house with the hunting rifle and asked for everyone’s opinions. Although he also felt something was amiss, the temptation of the food was too great, and the quantity inside was indeed substantial.
Professor Feng said, “I have no objections.”
Manyu also said, “I don’t have any special abilities, nor do I have combat skills.
It’s up to you to decide.”
Ji Zan looked at Fu Shinan.
After considering it for a moment, Fu Shinan said, “I think we should give it a
try, but I hope you would include me! Regardless of their motives, even if it’s a trap, we have to take the risk for the sake of the food.”
Ji Zan’s face became somewhat solemn. “There will definitely be a significant number of zombies inside. Are you really going to come along? It’s very dangerous.”
“I promise I won’t hold you back!” Today, Fu Shinan had already killed a zombie dog, boosting her confidence. But more importantly, she didn’t want the gap between them and Liu Xuezhou’s group to be too great. Even if they divided the resources, she didn’t believe the other side was genuinely so generous. sending more people and still splitting it evenly- So she wanted to
contribute as much as possible.
MO Cheng also said, “I have no objections. If we don’t fight, we’ll starve. I’d rather take a chance! We can’t let opportunities slip away.”
Sun Han agreed as well, and Da Fei didn’t need to be convinced. Xia Dong had some doubts, but he also agreed. After all, food was the most important thing now, but he hoped everyone would be extra careful.
The next morning, after a simple breakfast, they went to find the four RVs.
Liu Xuezhou seemed to have anticipated that Ji Zan’s group would come and immediately jumped down from the vehicle. It was overcast today, and he didn’t wrap himself as tightly as yesterday, revealing a thin face with high cheekbones, giving him a mean appearance. Judging by his age, he seemed to be in his early thirties.
Ji Zan reached out and shook his hand. “We agree to your proposal. When do we launch the attack?”
Liu Xuezhou smiled and said, “The sooner, the better. I’m sure you’ve noticed that every time it rains, the zombies become stronger. Judging by the weather now, it’s going to rain again soon. If you’re okay with it, let’s go now!” Ji Zan glanced at the four RVs behind him. “How will the personnel be divided?”
“We’ll split our twelve people into two groups. Eight will follow me, and the other three will guide you since they are familiar with the terrain.” Liu Xuezhou then asked, “Do you have any people with special abilities among you?” Ji Zan lowered his gaze. “Fire and lightning.”
Liu Xuezhou was somewhat surprised. “To have two attack abilities? We have three people with abilities, but their attacks aren’t strong. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have proposed cooperation with you. Alright, let’s not waste any more time. Let’s set off quickly.”
Then, the six vehicles set off together and arrived at the food storage warehouse.
One by one, the people got out of their vehicles, and it was only then that Fu Shinan and the others noticed that there were four women in Liu Xuezhou’s group. Moreover, these women were dressed differently, still paying attention to their appearance even at this time, indicating that they were living relatively well. The youngest appeared to be in her twenties, while the oldest was in her forties and had the worst complexion, possibly due to her age….
