Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 88

Chapter 88: Chapter Eighty-Nine: On the Road

“`

Three armored vehicles drove imposingly on the road out of the city.

Su Jin had specially brought out the walkie-talkies she collected from the outdoor supply store. Now that mobile phones were completely unusable, luckily, these walkie-talkies could communicate within a certain range.

Su Jin and Lu Hao’s vehicles led the way, with Mao Zhihang driving. Su Jin, her aunt, and Mao Qiqi were sitting in the middle, taking into account that Mao Qiqi’s Special Ability was suitable for detecting emergencies. Mr. Su and Mrs. Su were in the back row.

The armored car was very spacious inside, so the group didn’t feel crammed at all. Plus, the wheels were wide, which made the ride less bumpy.

“Girl, girl, what’s the road condition ahead?”

“Big Beard, Big Beard, answer if you hear me!”

…

Nie Qing had become addicted to playing with the walkie-talkie; he’d seen these devices used for communication in cop shows.

“Uncle Nie… I will notify you all the first thing if there’s any situation,” Su Jin replied helplessly.

“Roger that, all clear in the rear,” Yin Chengtian’s voice came through. They sat in the last vehicle. Xue Wanyi was driving, who was awestruck when he saw Su Jin bring out these vehicles.

Armored cars, modified ones at that.

So cool, so dazzling, really top-notch!

No matter what, he had to drive one, but no one contended with him for it. After all, Yin Chengtian, Shi Jin, and Liao Yifan were used to driving such vehicles.

Everyone was extremely impressed by Lu Hao and Su Jin’s purchasing power. When hitting zombies with this kind of vehicle, those inside couldn’t feel the impact at all. Indeed, money spent in the right place was always good.

It would have taken about a day to reach S City from H City via the highway under normal circumstances.

But now, the roads were littered with vehicles haphazardly abandoned, and the highway exits were blocked, likely the conditions on the highway were no better.

Su Jin suggested taking the slower roads, reasoning that even if they encountered blockages, there were alternative routes available, unlike the highway which was easy to enter but hard to exit.

After communicating this plan over the walkie-talkie to the other two vehicles, everyone agreed. Hence, the convoy headed for the slower route.

Upon leaving H City, the number of zombies noticeably increased. Mao Qiqi was frowning tightly, her ‘little map’ filled with dense red dots and occasionally a few green ones, making her very uncomfortable.
