The Walking Dead: Rebuild

Chapter 39 Knowledge is powerful power

After dark, a deathly silence fell over Georgia Tech.

In the hall of the underground shelter, Leon took the dinner from Hillman and nodded to him awkwardly. After all, he cut off his sister's arm just in the afternoon and the girl was still in a coma.

Opposite him, sat four older men, namely Professor Jacob, Professor Mallock, Professor Thomas and Professor Amlin.

Leon coughed lightly, cleared his throat, and said:
"As Professor Amlin said, our Umbrella Company is an organization with the goal of guarding the hope of mankind and rebuilding human civilization."

"It is very necessary for professors and your students to join us. We will provide you with abundant supplies and absolutely safe protection to ensure that even in this doomsday world, you can make great contributions to the cause of protecting mankind."

When Professors Mallock and Thomas heard that Lyon could provide absolutely safe shelter, their eyes flashed and they felt a little moved.

Professor Jacob touched his stubble and asked:
"We really have to leave here. The resources in the underground shelter can only last for about half a month at most. But according to your description, passing through the corpses in the street is a very dangerous thing, even if you are like you Such experienced survivors almost feed all zombies.”

"Then, it should be difficult for ordinary people like us, with more than 100 people, to travel through."

Upon hearing this, Leon showed a confident smile and said to several professors:

"You don't need to worry about this."

He took out a map from his pocket and pushed it in front of several professors.

"In the afternoon, I went to the library specifically just to find it."

Professor Amlin stretched out his hand, flattened the map, and shouted in surprise when he saw the string of English in the center of the map.

"Schematic diagram of Atlanta's sewer construction."

Looking at the surprised eyes of several professors, Leon smiled lightly and said:
"Actually, if we had had this map when we came to the Institute of Technology, we wouldn't have had to risk our lives through the zombies."

"Now, we only need to leave the city center through the sewers, and we can contact the troops outside to come and support us."

Professor Jacob nodded solemnly, with a smile on his face, and said:

"Mr. Custer, you are really an excellent leader, with both the courage to face danger and the wisdom to overcome difficulties."

"I will seriously consider the recruitment of the Umbrella Company. I hope to go to your base for an on-site inspection. Is this a bit presumptuous?"

"Of course, professor, you will soon find out that in this world, our base is already one of the few places that can be called a paradise."

Leon nodded indifferently on his face, but he was thinking in his heart, would the cooked duck fly away if it got into my pot.

After dinner, Leon chatted with several professors for a while, and then returned to his bed.

He was a little excited. He had really made a lot of money coming to the Polytechnic this time. Not to mention the nearly a hundred young leeks, the mere existence of these three professors made Lyon very pleasantly surprised.

Professor Jacobs is an internationally renowned professor of nuclear energy engineering, Professor Mallock is a Taishan Beidou who studies biogenetic engineering, and Professor Thomas is a very famous mechanical engineer in America.

The three professors are all great talents with real talents, although they will not play a substantial role in the construction of the base in the short term.

But in the future, after the umbrella company develops, these three professors will be able to increase the company's upper limit to a great extent.

The next day, Leon and his warriors got up early, and their task was to find an entrance according to the instructions in the sewer map.

Fortunately, there is an entrance to the sewer on the first floor of the gymnasium. They only need to clear out the zombies between the sewer entrance and the shelter, and then they can lead the survivors into the sewer.

This was another long battle. Leon and his warriors fought from 7 a.m. to 11 noon, clearing out nearly 200 zombies before finally clearing the road.

Looking at the hole covered by the metal manhole cover, Leon thought for a moment, turned to Moore and said, "Daryl and I will go in first to explore the way. You and the other team members will escort the students and professors over now."

"We will leave markers along the way to confirm the correct and safe route. If anything happens, remember to call me on the radio."

Moore followed the order and took away Glenn, Aji, and T.

Leon nodded to the remaining Daryl and took the lead into the sewer.

As soon as he got into the sewer, a strong rancid smell filled Leon's nose. He took out a flashlight and looked into the sewer.

The space of the sewer is not large, with a height of only three meters and a width of no more than five meters.

Above Leon's head are various metal pipes, and under his feet is a small river of sewage flowing across it.

Because it is in a humid environment all year round, both the wall and the two steps near the wall are covered with green moss. You must pay attention to your walking strength to avoid falling down easily.

Although it was filled with rancid odor and slippery moss, what reassured Leon was that there were basically no traces of zombies here.

Following the pre-planned route, he led Daryl forward for about 500 meters, but there was still not a single zombie.

Leon took out the radio in his pocket and said to Moore:

"Mor, Mor, this is Lyoncastle."

"The route here is very safe and we can move the troops forward."

After a few seconds, Moore's voice also came from the radio.

"received."

"Boss, we have begun to enter the sewer."

"OK, we will continue to explore the path forward. Please contact me if there are special circumstances."

There were no dangers along the way, except for the occasional zombie that broke into the sewer. After 10 kilometers of walking along the sewer, it took Lyon and others a full 4 hours to get out of the university town.

After choosing an exit, Leon pushed the manhole cover above his head and climbed out, only to find that they were in an alley between two buildings.

Using a silenced pistol, he quickly killed two zombies who heard the sound. Leon observed their location.

It was about 1 kilometer away from where Rick and other troops were stationed. The alley was blocked by an iron fence, and there were about two to three hundred zombies on the road.

After collecting this information, Leon took out the radio, adjusted to the channel where Rick and others were, and said:
"Rick, Rick, this is Leon Custer."

After a few seconds, Rick's voice came.

"This is Rick, Leon, where are you now."

Leon looked at the door number of the building next to him.

"Our current location is within 2 kilometers of you, located in your ten o'clock direction, No. 109 Oak Leaf Street."

"We are trapped in this street. Now, you bring the others over, clean up the zombies here, and take us away."

"Okay, Leon, we'll be here right away."
