Zhang Yuan and his team saluted Wei Ying before Zhang Yuan reached out for a handshake. "Captain Wei, we have been waiting for you and your team."
"Something happened on the road, so we were delayed," Wei Ying said with a smile.
Zhang Yuan nodded and added, "Captain Wei, before you and your team can enter the camp, we need to conduct a checkup first."
Wei Ying and his team were used to undergoing checkups whenever they returned to the temporary survivor camp, so he didn't refuse and agreed readily, "Okay."
Shen Jinzhe noticed a woman among the Eagle Team, so he went to ask Chu Zhimiao for help. Even though no one showed signs of mutation, they still couldn't afford to be careless.
Thirty minutes later, the Eagle Team completed their checkup and followed their captain into the camp. When they saw several iron pots placed over bonfires, they were surprised.
It was normal to boil water for drinking, but what surprised them was that the pots were filled with porridge, soup dumplings, and boiled eggs.
Although they were still able to have some food, it had been a while since they had a warm meal.
They mostly ate biscuits or dried rations, and they didn't dare to cook food, fearing that the scent would attract zombies. Besides that, they couldn't afford to use too many supplies since a lot of people in the survivor camp were waiting for them to bring back more food.
Now, seeing how the Phantom Team was able to have such a lavish meal, they were envious. But before their captain gave his permission, no one dared to ask for a meal.
Zhang Yuan noticed the Eagle Team's gazes and said, "Captain Wei, my captain is away at the moment. How about you and your team take a break and have some food first? We can discuss other matters when my captain returns."
Wei Ying had already noticed his soldiers' behavior the moment they entered the camp. Not to mention the soldiers—even he felt hungry when he smelled the fragrance in the air.
Since his soldiers were tired and hungry, it wouldn't hurt to delay some matters and have a meal first. So, he nodded and said, "Thank you, Old Zhang. We won't be polite then."
Zhang Yuan smiled and replied, "Captain Wei, everyone is brothers. There is no need to be polite."
After saying this, he turned to his team and said, "Xiao Qi, Yusheng, show the way to our brothers."
"Yes, Vice Captain," the two of them replied in unison.
"Captain Wei, I still have a matter to attend to, so I won't accompany you," Zhang Yuan said before leaving.
Wei Ying nodded and followed Xiao Qi and Yun Yusheng.
As they walked, Xiao Qi said, "Captain Wei, we have prepared a place for you and your team to wash up before we go to the dining area."
