Chapter 173: Separate (5)

"Vice-boss, we'll have to decide now. Are we going to keep waiting for the boss, or we're going to move forward and get our mission done first?" Alex and Queenie came forward to ask for Satella's decision. Without Zhang Qin Feng around them, she was the only one that can keep everyone's spirits keep burning with dedication.

"We'll move forward. If things did not go out of our expectations, the path after Shangwen Tunnel would be much easier. Let's maintain a low profile while we're moving until we arrived at the developing town area we're going to turn into our base."

"I know everyone is tired, but let's finish this before the boss come back and question why we're taking so long to accomplish our mission," she said.

"Woah!" everyone gives out a moderate cry to keep themselves motivated. Some smarter ones already have a rough hypothesis about Zhang Qin Feng's sudden disappearance from the group. Still, none of them considered the option that Zhang Qin Feng was dead.

Inside their mind, he was still alive and struggling to do something beside them. This is also what keeping all of them together as they continue to move forward.

After their few hours of rest, the 35 soldiers and their commanding officers were headed into the Shangwen Tunnel. This place was considered one of the best infrastructures for durability, safety, and effectiveness.

It was still a mystery why this place was out of commission when the Seed Crystal Virus outbreak happened. But none of them were their concern right now as Satella led them through this place.

Their destination would be the unnamed, incomplete self-sustaining town structure located not too far from this Shangwen Tunnel. If the information from the map did not lie, this new place would be the heaven they're looking for.

Satella believes that Zhang Qin Feng's ability to bring out random and proper equipment when needed would ensure that this place to do much better than the current Wind Base.

Of course, that does not mean they'll be abandoning the Wind Base after they occupied this new location. Having one additional outpost was better than having nothing at all.

The moment the group entered the tunnel and started to move from one end to another, a smaller group is separated from the leading team.

Alex was the leader of this separate, minor group. The reason they're going to take a detour was to check if the vehicle could still work after getting abandoned for so long. It was almost impossible for them to find new transportation right now because their parts were salvaged mainly by the survivors to be made into other products.

Furthermore, no single survivor who does well in automotive appeared in the list of Wind Base's survivors. This means even if they could repair or construct new vehicles, it would be nothing but scrap.

Having a properly built, durable, and reliable vehicle is godlike. Compared to a moving coffin that will deliver you to your death in any situation, it is nothing but a disgrace to the automotive industry.

Added with the disappearance of electricity in the survivor's life, it was no wonder the survivors no longer treated vehicles as a part of their needs.

"Damn it… They changed their method of approach so fast. To think that creatures like them also know how to send the smaller ones first before allowing the big one to come in. Things will get worst if I literally let them do what they like." Zhang Qin Feng was talking to himself as he continues with his running towards the upper floors.

He had climbed over ten floors at one go. From what he sees on the first exit on the tenth floor, the lower 50 levels were all used to be a safety measure for the management in handing the goods they would incinerate.

The access on 100meters above ground, 200m, 300, 400, and 500meters was for their convenience, depending on how much waste they've collected. Furthermore, the exit could also be used when needed if a procedure other than incineration was considered.

Zhang Qin Feng picked up his speed after noticing that the exit on the tenth, twenty, thirtieth, to fiftieth were all connected to the entrance based on the dome's height. Since he has nothing much to do with this all so far, he knew that this exit would be helpful in the future when he had the intention to wipe these creatures off from the surface of this world.

[The user's exhaustion level has reached a dangerous level. Suggesting the user consume some food before continue!]

Stein's warning came after it noticed that Zhang Qin Feng's body condition deteriorated due to his exhaustion. There was nothing more severe than having all kinds of negative status accumulating on your body at this moment.

'Do I look like I have an appetite or tiFollasdme to eat something?' Zhang Qin Feng said. But his body reacted otherwise as he leaned on the corner between two walls to catch up with his breathing.

If it was not because of the Breathing Technique training, he would have collapsed from all these intense activities by now. Zhang Qin Feng's heartbeat was beating at a rate similar to someone shocked by a ghost.

The symptoms include shaking hands, nervousness, and clouded judgment.

Stein had no choice but to stop him from moving. This had to be done to ensure that Zhang Qin Feng won't be lost when he's needed to make a particular decision.

"Fine! I'll do it, satisfied?" for the first time, Zhang Qin Feng lost control over his temper and pulled the zipper open by force. He randomly picked something from the bag and opened the wrapper in a hurry.

Taking a bite into that chocolate bar with caramel and nuts, Zhang Qin Feng forced himself to swallow what's in his mouth without the help of a drink. Although the effect was not instant, the benefit was a magical one.

From a Human psychology perspective, eating tends to make someone calmer and more composed when he was in an uncontrollable situation.

The chocolate bar was quickly devoured by Zhang Qin Feng in two mouthfuls. That short minute or two was actually all he needs to rejuvenate himself.

[Let's continue to climb and exit this place, dear user…]

Stein said.
