You were supposed to hoard supplies, why the heck did you hoard zombies!-Chapter 285 - 284: Return Fully Loaded

Five Titans on the highway, like armored vehicles, charged through the horde of zombies, blocking almost half of their fierce offensive. The remaining zombies were dispersed into smaller groups and streamed toward the toll station below.

Although the replicated machine guns from the machinery factory were not on par with the military’s standard weapons, they had proven their reliability in battle after battle.

Moreover, they had brought sufficient ammunition with them, so this makeshift defensive line was nearly immovable.

Layers of corpses quickly covered the asphalt road.

Blood flowed like a stream.

After an indeterminate amount of time, the zombies in front suddenly became much fewer, and finally, under a hail of bullets, dozens of bodies were left behind, and the remaining horde of zombies started to scatter and flee. Find your next read at novelbuddy

Everyone was slightly surprised but quickly accepted the reality.

The zombies of today were no longer the same as before.

Running away was quite normal.

It would be more accurate to say that with their side’s fierce firepower, even a relatively small horde of zombies would likely flee at the first encounter.

And the zombies that came off the highway today had clearly gained confidence for some reason.

Perhaps it was because their numbers were sufficiently large.

Unfortunately, humanity still won.

With concentrated heavy firepower and suitable terrain, as long as there was enough ammunition, the company’s armed personnel could completely handle a zombie horde more than ten times their size.

After the zombies retreated, Wang Hu immediately ordered his men to start cleaning up the battlefield in front of them.

So many corpses gathered in one place could easily breed infectious diseases.

A single slip-up could cause trouble.

And how could they let the filth of zombie blood and flesh soil the camouflage-painted bodies of the vehicles they were about to acquire?

The tiring and accident-prone task of cleaning the battlefield was naturally left to the zombie employees.

Several departments in the company had squads specifically for handling such menial tasks.

All were staffed by agile zombies.

The transportation company was no exception.

A dozen zombies, already waiting at the back, dressed in uniform janitor uniforms, lined up under the leadership of the logistics chief to pass through the toll gate bars onto the highway, and then started their work in pairs.

Wang Hu took this opportunity to lead some of his men to their destination.

The military trucks left behind were still in place.

They were almost undamaged.

Even though one had been hit by another vehicle beside it, it only had a few slight dents and indentations, and the overall condition was still ready to operate at any moment.

The only problem was that half of the armored vehicle was hanging off the overpass.

Two Titans were trying to pull it back.

"Roar!!!"

As the third Titan roared and joined this tense tug-of-war, the teetering body of the armored vehicle was finally pulled back from the edge of the overpass.

No sooner had the vehicle stabilized than something crawled out of the driver’s cabin.

Before it had time to attack, Wang Hu blew its head off.

On the ground, a headless mutant lay clearly.

"Tsch."

"You scared the hell out of me."

Wang Hu kicked the corpse aside, his disdainful gaze heating up instantly as it touched the cold body of the vehicle.

Would he have been stuck at the construction site if he had had this thing earlier?

Fat Cat would have had the guts to come directly and crush him!

A dead cat!

But now, possessing this armored vehicle was clearly not too late, especially since the company was rapidly expanding, it was inevitable that conflicts with other settlements would arise in the future.

The deterrent effect of an armored vehicle equipped with machine guns and cannons was self-evident.

And the harvest was far more than just these vehicles.

There were also the things on the vehicles.

In front of a slightly oddly shaped truck, a man was waving at Wang Hu, clearly wanting him to come over and see the situation there.

When Wang Hu arrived, the man immediately opened the car door, barely containing his excitement.

Inside were several intertwined electronic devices.

"This is..."

"Military radio?"

Wang Hu’s eyes showed surprise, and a wave of ecstasy suddenly surged in his heart. This thing was much better than the civilian walkie-talkies used by the company!

What was more important was that these devices had been left behind by the military.

Its importance goes without saying.

"You did a good job this time!"

"Take them all back!"

At his command, everybody on the scene immediately began to gather any useful items they could find.

Most of the weapons had already been completely taken by Ding Zhixiong, who had discovered this place by accident before.

What remained were mostly large and cumbersome equipment.

Like these trucks and the stuff inside them.

They were the real treasures.

————————

Jiangbei District.

A convoy was driving on the road.

There was a modified off-road pickup truck at each end, with a van in the middle, clearly marked with the word "base."

After turning past the upcoming intersection, the speed of the convoy immediately slowed down.

Peng Liu, seeing the familiar gate ahead, finally relaxed after a tense journey.

Wanhao District had arrived.

This was his third time here.

Since he followed Zhang Ye here once, he had become the person specifically assigned by the company to handle transactions in Wanhao District.

Officially, he was an escort, but in reality, he was here to meet two people.

Seeing a vehicle approaching, the gatekeeper immediately became alert but then smiled upon seeing the word on the truck.

"Yo, Mr. Liu is here again?"

"What good stuff did you bring for the brothers this time?"

Peng Liu, rolling down the window, casually handed over a cigarette and then started to nonchalantly inquire about the situation inside.

"It’s the same old routine."

"Every day it’s just standing guard here, nothing much happening."

The gatekeeper exhaled a puff of smoke, answering with a satisfied expression.

"That’s fine."

"Make sure to let me know right away if anything comes up, okay?"

Peng Liu still felt somewhat uneasy and reminded him.

Seeing the other person nod, he then felt reassured and drove inside.

Not far inside, someone was already waiting by the roadside.

It was Liang Wenjie, who had recently returned to Wanhao District.

But now he was no longer ragged and destitute, his dirty clothes having been replaced with a neat suit.

Even the place he lived had moved from the original shanty area to the house rented next to the company’s office.

He even brought a bodyguard with a somber look in his eyes.

Codenamed Viper.

It was said that he was also picked up from among the refugees in the shanty area, and later, his entire family died on the way fleeing to Wanhao District.

"Mr. Liu is here?"

As soon as Peng Liu got out of the car, Liang Wenjie immediately came up to greet him with great respect, showing no signs of arrogance.

"Yes."

"Is the merchandise all ready?"

Peng Liu responded lightly, while walking toward the house and asking at the same time.

"It’s ready."

"The price is still the same as before."

"However, Director Zhang seems to be somewhat dissatisfied with us recently."
