Post-apocalyptic World: Stockpile Ten Billion Supplies at the Beginning

Chapter 153

In Chen Luos camp, members killed zombies every day, also scavenging for supplies as they went. They accumulated a significant amount of supplies daily, but it came with considerable consumption, like consuming over two tons of rice every day.

He organized actions to exercise the members and gather more supplies before the zombies evolved to the fourth level.

Chen Luo asked, How many people do you have?

Lei Hao, somewhat embarrassed, replied, I have only six hundred people, but they are all at the third level, and there are two at the fourth level.

Chen Luo wasnt surprised. At this point, second-level abilities were almost as useless as first-level ones. All of Chen Luos members had reached the third level over a month ago. If you werent an elite at the third level, he wouldnt let you join.

Chen Luo smiled and asked, So, how much do you want?

It was only fair for the one who contributed the most and had the strongest force to take a bigger share. If Lei Hao had said they should split it equally, Chen Luo might have declined the offer and gone on his own.

Lei Hao was well-prepared and replied without hesitation, Chen Luo, even though its my provided location, I only want thirty percent.

Chen Luo immediately agreed, saying, Thats fine.

Chen Luo wasnt someone who nitpicked over such matters. Thirty percent wasnt much, and he didnt believe Lei Hao had any hidden agenda. He was genuinely interested in cooperation, not setting a trap. Plus, Chen Luo had Rice with him in case something went wrong.

Chen Luo and Lei Hao agreed to take action the next morning. Lei Hao left with a sense of satisfaction, and Chen Luo carried the large rooster that Lei Hao had brought.

This rooster was much smarter than Xiao Hong. It didnt struggle when Chen Luo held it and instead curiously observed its surroundings.

Chen Luo took it to where Xiao Hong was. Xiao Hong was in her nest, and upon seeing Chen Luo from a distance, she immediately laid an egg.

The rooster, upon seeing Xiao Hong, which he hadnt seen in a while, suddenly became restless. He had been a bachelor for a long time and hadnt had a mate for a while. Seeing Xiao Hong, he couldnt help but get excited.

The roosters eyes were filled with excitement. Chen Luo was quite pleased because having desire would help in laying eggs.

However, Xiao Hong wasnt interested at all. She merely glanced at the rooster. Since the time the Thunderbolt King had acquired the Silver Wolf and stopped mistreating her, Xiao Hong had become quite content with her life.

Chen Luo smiled and said, Xiao Hong, Ive found you a companion.

Xiao Hong shook her head. She didnt want it.

Chen Luo narrowed his eyes. How dare you defy my intentions? Chen Luo raised his hand.

Xiao Hong yielded, Can I have it back?

Chen Luo finally smiled, taking the egg that Xiao Hong had just laid and allowed the two chickens to bond.

Xiao Hong had tears in her eyes; Thunderbolt may not be human, but you arent that great either.

Forcing chickens to do something they dont want to do

Lei Hao arrived with two hundred men, taking a safer route.

After they had traveled more than half of the way, they encountered a battle.

It was Feng Zhengqing who came from Yun City who is travelling to Divine Capital.

Feng Zhengqing was running low on supplies, so he urgently needed to find some resources.

He dared to explore areas that others wouldnt dare to attack.

He had over a thousand elite subordinates, just like Chen Luo, where only elites were recruited.

Many of Yun Citys elites had joined him, and all of his subordinates were at the third level, with a dozen or so at the fourth level.

The difference between third and fourth level was substantial, but it wasnt as hard as it might seem.

Without higher-level crystals, Leng Chenhad promoted to the fourth level a month ago.

At present, Chen Luos base had 37 members at the fourth level, excluding people like Mi Ling. There would be more members advancing to the fourth level gradually.

Feng Zhengqings members were highly organized and followed a systematic approach in their battles against the zombies. Feng Zhengqing himself was a wind-type fifth-level ability user.

Strong Wind Rises.

The powerful gust of wind blew towards the zombies, making it challenging for the zombies at the forefront to maintain their balance.

As a result, they couldnt use their abilities, and Feng Zhengqings members easily defeated them.

Lei Haotian was wide-eyed as he witnessed this display of power.

What kind of strength was this?

It was incredibly potent, perhaps rivaling Chen Luos power.

In the meantime, the vigilant members of Feng Zhengqings group stopped Lei Haotian.

Lei Haotian pondered for a moment, realizing that cooperating with Chen Luo and Feng Zhengqing would reduce casualties.

If Chen Luo wasnt planning something devious, he might agree. After all, theyd still have enough resources to go around.

Lei Haotian explained his purpose to Feng Zhengqing, but Feng Zhengqing just laughed heartily and said, My friend, I can handle this on my own. Why should I share the spoils with others? You just need to lead the way, and Ill give you a 20% share. If Chen Luo comes looking, Ill cover for you.

Although Chen Luo offered him a 30% share, Feng Zhengqing was only willing to give Lei Haotian 20%. However, with no casualties, would Lei Haotian dare to complain?

In his mind, Feng Zhengqing secretly chuckled. In fact, he didnt need to share any portion with Lei Haotian, but he required Lei Haotians men as cannon fodder. During the operation, they might encounter evolved mutants. While Feng Zhengqing was confident in dealing with regular mutants, if they encountered someone too powerful, he could use Lei Haotians men as a buffer.

Feng Zhengqings people didnt need to run faster than the mutants themselves; they only needed to be faster than Lei Haotians men. No matter how dangerous the situation became, Feng Zhengqing was the safest. As a wind user, he might not be able to match Chen Luos void-walk ability, but his self-preservation skills were top-notch.

During the operation, Lei Haotian was in awe of Feng Zhengqings abilities, realizing that third-level users like him were vastly different from Feng Zhengqings team. Few members from his base could compare to Feng Zhengqings team.

In particular, when they encountered an evolved mutant, Feng Zhengqing took it down single-handedly, although he had the assistance of a fourth-level user with light-based abilities.

Feng Zhengqing kept his promise and gave Lei Haotian the agreed-upon two shares, which made Lei Haotian extremely pleased. He even forgot about cooperating with Chen Luo for a while.

Feng Zhengqings people appeared suddenly, and that same night, Chen Luo received the news. However, Chen Luo didnt yet know that Feng Zhengqing was behind this new force, and Jiang Feng only knew that there was a new power in town but hadnt uncovered the full details of Feng Zhengqings background.

Feng Zhengqing, being a newcomer, didnt immediately recruit anyone, which made it difficult for spies to infiltrate. Chen Luo didnt pay much attention to this development.

However, the next day, when Chen Luo was ready to mobilize a significant force with up to forty trucks to obtain a substantial amount of supplies, Lei Haotians people were nowhere to be found.

To make matters worse, the supplies at their destination had already been collected.

It wasnt until Chen Luo personally confronted Lei Haotian that the latter realized he had forgotten to notify Chen Luo. Leng Chen grabbed Lei Haotian by the collar angrily, You fatso, do you dare to double-cross our boss?
