The Walking Dead: Rebuild

Chapter 15 The Base
"Boss, you called Old Moll over. What are your orders?"

Leon threw a cigar to Moore and said:

"After 3 o'clock in the afternoon, I took the convoy back to the base, and I will not come back for the next few days."

"I leave all the combat team to you, but you must ensure the safety of everyone here. Can you do that?"

Moore took the cigar and smelled it without lighting it, but put it in his pocket. He patted his chest and assured Lyon:

"No problem, boss, I guarantee you that we will definitely bring everyone back safely."

Leon nodded, added another sentence, and said:
"You know the location of the base, right? The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta is an hour and a half's drive away."

"On the way to transport the supplies, you also need to send a team of people to protect us, so as to prevent sneaky bastards from attacking us. Our enemies are not just zombies. You should know that some people have no bottom line."

"Okay boss, don't worry, I will make arrangements."

----split line----

At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Lyon was driving a blue off-road sports car leading the way. Behind him, 11 large trucks and 2 oil tankers lined up in a long queue, transporting more than 100 tons of various daily necessities. supplies.

Under the leadership of Leon, everyone walked along the interstate highway and arrived at the outside of the square of the Atlanta Centers for Disease Control and Prevention without any danger.

After arriving at his destination, Leon did not get out of the car immediately. Instead, he drove a sports car and carefully checked around the CDC.

Not seeing a large group of corpses, he easily killed two zombies that might have wandered here randomly, and returned to the metal gate of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention.

The driver, porter, assistant Amy, and a dozen umbrella employees were all waiting for him there.

They all had a look of disappointment on their faces, thinking that this Umbrella Company base was not as safe as Lyon advertised, but due to Lyon's prestige, no one dared to really say anything?
Without high and thick walls, without machine guns and shells, and without a large number of manpower, how could these glass protect against zombies that even defeated the army?

Leon didn't talk nonsense, but directly took out the silenced pistol on his belt, pointed it at the glass not far away, and poured out a magazine, scaring the porters and drivers to shrink involuntarily.

Seeing the bullet being bounced away without even a trace on the bulletproof glass, Leon shrugged to everyone and said:

"Everyone, please rest assured that this is a real fortress. Without artillery tanks, no one can really hurt you."

"There is also a complete water and electricity system here. You can live a civilized and modern life here."

"Of course, if there are still people who are dissatisfied in such an environment, I don't mind excluding them and letting them live the life they want."

After speaking, Leon ignored the others. He glanced at his assistant Amy and said to the sensing device on the metal door:

"Queen Red, open the gate."

"As you command, Master." An ethereal female voice sounded.

After gaining control of the ground building, Lyon changed the intelligent system here to his favorite mode.

Since it is an umbrella company, the intelligent system should be called Red Queen.

Unfortunately, this intelligent system is not as intelligent as imagined. It can only perform simple voice recognition control and cannot add more intelligent capabilities.

The metal roller shutter door quickly rolls up to reveal the glass sliding door inside. Through the two glass doors, you can see the spacious and bright modern reception room inside.

"Come in and follow me. I will take you to visit the base first. This is where you will live for a long time to come."

Leon waved to everyone, and Amy followed him obediently half way behind him, looking like she was waiting for orders at any time.

The ground building of the CDC is roughly divided into three parts, the visitor area, the staff area and the underground parking lot.

The tourist area includes the exhibition hall and reception center. This is a large modern landmark building with an area of ​​3000 square meters and a height of about 40 meters. It has a beautiful shape and is highly ornamental.

Its exterior wall adopts a mixed structure of steel and earth. Most of it is a transparent exterior wall assembled from a large steel frame and hundreds of large-area bulletproof glass. The interior is divided into 4 floors. The first floor is the reception center. The upper floor is a reception center. The third floor is the exhibition hall.

It exhibits the entire history of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, relevant achievements made at various times, and the contributions of many famous medical and biological experts to the world. There are many types, but they are all quite ordinary face-saving projects.The staff area includes office areas and living areas. It is a rectangular three-story office building with an area of ​​about 2000 square meters and looks quite common.

The first floor is the living area, with a large dining room, a huge visitor activity room and bathrooms, bathhouses, smoking rooms, warehouses and other functional buildings needed for life.

The second floor is a clerical office area consisting of a dozen private offices and 4 large offices.

The third floor is used to receive important guests, with conference rooms, screening rooms, private lounges and entertainment rooms. The decoration is quite luxurious and will be used by Lyon as his private space in the future.

The first two areas together occupy nearly 6000 square meters, but the actual usable area adds up to 15 square meters, which is quite astonishing.

But the largest area among the three areas is not the first two, but the underground parking lot underground.

For some unknown reason, the parking lot of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was built quite huge, and each floor was quite high. It was divided into 4 floors in total.The floor distance is 8 meters high and covers an area of ​​5000 square meters. The total actual area exceeds 2 square meters.

Perhaps because all the staff had fled after the disaster, there were only twenty or thirty cars parked here, making the extremely empty environment even more lonely.

However, no matter what the reason was, Leon, as the owner, was certainly surprised to be able to obtain such a huge safe environment.

After taking everyone around for a brief tour of the base, Leon and others arrived at the first floor of the underground parking lot. This was connected to the exit of the parking lot. It was a large protective metal door composed of three thick bulletproof steel plates. It was high. It is 6 meters wide and 10 meters wide, allowing various types of vehicles to enter and exit.

He ordered to a dozen drivers and transporters from the logistics department:
"The basement level has been cleared out and will be used as our warehouse."

"You can drive the car in directly later. Today's task is to transfer all the materials on the truck here. Miss Amy will be responsible for planning the location."

After saying that, he said to Amy who was following him:

"Miss Amy, you are responsible for helping them plan the use of the warehouse, classifying each material as carefully as possible, and leaving enough gaps as a passable road."

"Soon we will be renovating this place, erecting a fence and converting it into a professional warehouse."

Leon looked at the Rolex in his hand. It was already 5 pm. He patted Amy on the shoulder and said:

"I still have some things to do, so I'll leave first. After 8 o'clock, you take them to the public restaurant on the first floor to meet up."

"If there's anything urgent, every monitor here is connected to the smart computer Red Queen. Just shout out the Red Queen's name to them and you can contact me."

"That's it, I'll go first."

………….

Ten minutes later, Leon held a huge backpack filled with an astonishing number of glass test tubes. He met Dr. Melfa and Dr. Jenner at the entrance of the underground research institute.

With surprise on their faces, the two doctors exchanged a few pleasantries with Leon. The three of them came to the conference room, and Leon pushed the backpack in his hand towards Dr. Melfa.

"Doctor, this is the virus sample you need."

"I collected a total of more than 40 human blood and more than 50 samples of zombies of varying degrees, and they were all labeled."

"It should be enough for you to use for a while."

Melfa nodded and pulled the backpack to his hand. He did not rush to check it, but asked Leon:
"You went out to explore for 4 days this time. How did you feel?"

"I see that you brought back 15 people and more than a dozen trucks of supplies. You should have gained a lot."

Leon nodded, thought for a few seconds, and said casually:
"It's not bad, but there are very few survivors. I have only gathered more than 40 people, and there are still thousands of tons of living supplies waiting to be shipped back."

"what!"

"Thousands of tons of supplies? Have you evacuated several towns?"
