The convoy moved forward slowly.
Putting down the intercom, Tang Susu fastened her seatbelt and drove the bulletproof car out first.
Liang Jun followed closely behind, followed by Cheng Cheng, Lu Yunxiang, the metahumans of the shelter, and then the stronger commoners.
These SUVs were aggressive, and they rushed forward with murderous intent.
Mr. Tang was responsible for driving the luxury RV that Tang Susu’s brothers had pretended to drive back yesterday afternoon, but Tang Susu had actually recently just taken out of her inventory.
As the RV was rather bulky, Tang Susu had arranged for it to be placed in the middle of the convoy. It was only used as a resting and living place for their family, and it was fully equipped with all kinds of necessities.
Tang Susu and her two brothers were in the same car. There was no one else arranged to ensure a certain level of privacy.
At this moment, she circled up the winding mountain road in front of the door and picked up the radio again. “First stop, An’nan City’s Central Hospital in Province J nearby. We’re looking for antibiotics.”
Because she had left a lot of antibiotics for the people in the shelter, they didn’t have to rush to send them back.
Antibiotics were used to treat bacterial infections, and those who fell ill from drinking river water because they were infected with all kinds of bacteria.
The water could be boiled for more than five minutes in the past to reach a certain level of sterilization. Due to the influence of the virus, the bacteria and various micro-creatures inside mutated, and their reproduction speed also reached an astonishing level!
A small cup of water could contain hundreds of millions of times more bacteria than before. It was difficult for people to drink it without getting into trouble.
However, this was inevitable. Although there were more water-types than wood-types, there was not enough to go around. Ordinary people couldn’t get enough water. If they couldn’t find bottled water, they could only use water from nature.
Fortunately, antibiotics could still play a certain role at the moment. In the future, the country would also develop Physique Enhancers to help humans adapt to various extreme environments that harmed the human body.
All these thoughts flashed through her mind in an instant. Tang Susu lowered her gaze and said, “Speed up to 80. We must reach our destination before tonight!”
Hearing the voice coming from the radio, Lao Yao immediately raised his head and looked at Da Pang and Er Pang. They both let out a sigh of relief.
“Don’t worry about me.” Liang Jun knew that they had been anxious about his health for the past two days. If he had not stopped them, they might have already run out to find him a vaccine.
“I’m really fine.” He emphasized again, but the others naturally didn’t believe him.
“But why An’nan City…” Lao Yao thought of something and his expression turned ugly.
Liang Jun’s expression darkened as well, but he didn’t say anything. This made Yuan Lie, who was sitting in the corner of the last row with a very low sense of presence, show a trace of curiosity.
In the next second, he met Lao Yao’s scrutinizing gaze. The wariness in it was self-evident.
Yuan Lie pinched his fingertips lightly. A certain someone was really cunning. She actually found a difficult friend for him.
Why did she do that?
Didn’t she listen to him in the past? It was a pleasant surprise that she had suddenly become so distant and unpredictable.
Lao Yao didn’t notice anything and shifted his gaze away. In fact, he didn’t pay much attention to Yuan Lie, nor did he care.
But because Tang Susu had arranged for him to be there, he felt that there must be something special about him, and he had to be on guard!
Chongzhou Shelter was surrounded by mountains and rivers. The surrounding scenery was pleasant, and the roads led in all directions.
The fourteen vehicles sped along the winding mountain road, crossing a nearby mountain, and passed through a few dilapidated villages before arriving at a nearby third-tier city.
Chongzhou Shelter had searched the cities in this area, and they didn’t find anything useful, be it medicine or supplies.
Tang Susu even used the equipment that she had bought earlier to find supplies and asked 008 to help her keep an eye out.
‘Host, two bags of expired bear biscuits have been discovered!’
‘There’s a bag of gum in the cabinet in the corner of the kindergarten in front!’
‘There’s also a bag of rice eaten by rats, and there’s also half a bottle of water under the corpse!’
“Alright, you can shut up now.” Tang Susu’s lips twitched. “Do you think I’d stop just for this?”
She looked at the zombies wandering outside the window. There were almost no ordinary zombies left.
Everywhere he looked, T2s with more intact limbs were everywhere, mixed with some ugly T3S, wandering and roaring in the ruins of the city.
Without waiting for them to notice that someone was approaching, Tang Susu led the convoy and sped past, leaving a cloud of dust behind them..
