Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 224

Chapter 224: Chapter 224: Each Relying on Their Own Skills

The guard squad had quickly taken remedial measures, dispersing the survivors from vehicle 8 into other vehicles.

Since the vehicles weren’t too crowded to begin with, no one had any complaints, and each new person even got a seat.

The convoy didn’t dare to linger here long and moved on toward the direction of the base one by one.

After Lu Hao boarded, the attitude inside the vehicle became respectful, with people constantly praising his prowess and asking about his relationship with the girl with the Wood Element special ability.

Lu Hao, annoyed by the questions, turned around and said, “She’s my wife, please be quiet.”

“Yes!”

The once chattering group answered in unison.

Lu Hao: …

The driver couldn’t help but laugh. Could these people get a bit of dignity?

Su Jin, however, patiently answered the questions of the people in the vehicle.

She noticed the barrel for weapons at the front, which had been emptied by the people inside the vehicle, and felt a bit relieved, realizing that these individuals weren’t completely dependent on others.

Zombies were still running outside the car window, and some were furiously pouncing towards the window, but everyone was surprised to find that they were no longer as scared as before, even finding the zombies that got knocked down somewhat funny.

Perhaps, after one experiences something, they become no longer afraid?

As the vehicle entered the territory of City West, they could see a sign pointing toward the base every few distances, and the number of zombies on both sides of the streets had indeed decreased a lot.

“Amazing!”

People inside the vehicle had started discussing the scenery outside, the pre-Apocalypse deserted City West now providing a particular sense of security. Even the abandoned vehicles on the streets had been pushed to either side, leaving a wide main road open.

As they drove further, the drivers simultaneously breathed a sigh of relief, as they had already seen the walls of the base. Su Jin noticed that today’s walls were even taller than yesterday. It seemed her uncle and the others were really working hard!

“Is that the base?” People inside the vehicle had also noticed the impressive sight up ahead.

“It looks like an ancient city wall! Are we going to live here from now on?”

“Yes, if we had known, we would have come here sooner!”

“Little girl, little girl, I want to ask, they say here doesn’t include food and lodging, so what are we going to live on?” a woman asked. She liked this place but didn’t yet know the rules here.

Others also reacted, right, if this place doesn’t include food and lodging, how will they survive?

Su Jin turned around, smiling as she said, “As long as you have hands, anyone can survive.”

“Hey, that’s exactly the point. You all see zombies and run, yet don’t want to do hard work at the base. Now that you’re here, you eat by your own skills!” the driver said after firmly braking.

The driver’s words made everyone feel ashamed. Although the words weren’t nice, they were indeed true. They had been too naive before.

No one noticed that the driver had already pressed the door open, and the little girl who had been previously inquired about had vanished without a trace.

“Xiao Jin, you?”

As soon as Lu Hao got off the vehicle, Su Jin quickly pulled him along, and they didn’t need to register, only had their temperatures checked before they were let through.

“Hurry up, or we’ll be held back for a round of thanks again.”

Please forgive her; she really didn’t want to listen to those words of thanks, even if they came from the heart.
