Chapter 42

42 The cities near the outskirts of the Dongfang Base have been raided by many people, even small villages. The possibility of finding useful supplies is very slim.So now the search team must go further afield.But the farther away from the base, the more unknown dangers, but at the same time, the greater the probability of collecting usable materials.Risks and opportunities always go hand in hand.

It is early winter now, and the temperature will only get lower and lower. It will be even more difficult for humans to leave the base in deep winter.If there is snowfall, it will be difficult for most human beings to move forward in these last days.Moreover, low temperature will make people's limbs stiffer and their responsiveness will be reduced, but the demand for food will be higher.Most people in the base want to go out to the base for the last time before the deep winter to collect some supplies.Because no one can predict what will happen in the first winter of the last days, and whether they can survive this season smoothly.Although some food is provided in the base, the base does not support disabled people, and the food is collected based on contribution points.It's always more reassuring for anyone to have extra supplies.There is always nothing wrong with taking precautions, who knows what will happen after winter!
A heavy truck was driving on the empty and desolate road, and the withered yellow leaves that were brought up by the vehicle were spinning on the ground.The rear compartment of the big card is surrounded by a few pieces of army green cloth to block the wind, but the cold wind of early winter still blows relentlessly on people through those gaps, making people feel cold and straight to the heart.

Ye Guotao was wearing a dusty cotton coat, curled up and leaned against the fender of the big truck's rear compartment, breathed a sigh of relief from time to time, and rubbed his hands.At this time, he was not as energetic as before, his lips were already white and chapped due to lack of water, and his pampered hands were covered with cracked blood.He followed a group of people out of the base to look for supplies, and wanted to take advantage of the last opportunity this year to go out and collect some supplies for the winter.

Apart from Ye Guotao, there were six people in the back of the car, all big men.There were three other people in the cab. The driver was the captain of their team, and the other two were women.The captain is a second-tier fire-type supernatural power user.Second-tier abilities are now rare in the base, especially fire-type abilities with strong attack power are even rarer.One of the two women has a water ability and the other has a space ability, both of which are indispensable in the team.

"Bah, mother, it's really cold today!" A man next to Ye Guotao looked at the gloomy sky outside and said bitterly.

"Yeah." Ye Guotao rubbed his hands vigorously, he was not in the mood to chat with others, he just wanted to save his energy and bring back some food later.

"This damn world!" The man didn't seem to care if Ye Guotao was in the mood, he just wanted to complain, so he continued.Before the end of the world, he was still a small director, and his life was not luxurious, but very nourishing.Just in time for this apocalyptic world, the fucking director is a big deal!Don't you have to follow a group of country bumpkins to get up early and get into the dark!

"Yeah!" Ye Guotao was a smooth and shrewd businessman in the past. Now he is an ordinary person who can't afford to offend anyone, but he really doesn't have the energy to deal with the people around him, so he can only nod in agreement.He was able to be in the group of the captain of the second-tier fire element ability thanks to the person beside him, because the captain was his younger brother.Ye Guotao feels that he is the most humble ant now.

In fact, Ye Guotao had already aroused his abilities, but for some reason, he woke up one day and found that he couldn't use any moves.At the beginning, he thought that he would not be able to manipulate, but in the end he found that he really had no superpowers. At that time, he was speechless, wanted to cry but had no tears, and was at a loss. No one around him had ever heard of him in such a situation.Later, it was discovered that not only him, but also his son had no powers.But in this apocalyptic world, who can an ordinary person with no power and influence turn to to complain and argue? !You can only be forced to accept the fact that even depression is a luxury.At the beginning of the apocalypse, he bought those guns for life-saving before the end of the apocalypse. Except for some of them, they were handed over to Ji Wuchen, and the rest were lost in the escape.The three ordinary people in their family eat no less than others, but it is too difficult to survive without supernatural powers.

After Ye Zhen knew that he had lost his ability, he gave up on himself. After entering the Eastern Base, he was unwilling to go on missions with him, and just wanted to stay in the base comfortably.But Ye Guotao believes that as an ordinary person without supernatural powers, in the early days of the end of the world, he should come out to practice in order to survive.Otherwise, if the situation continues to get worse, ordinary people with no experience will not be able to adapt to this harsh environment!

"Alas! I don't know when these monsters will be eliminated. By the way, Lao Ye, your daughter..." The director seemed to have finally finished complaining, remembering that Ye Guotao should have a daughter, and asked cautiously.

"Dead." Ye Guotao said bitterly.
