Chapter 130
Was it the kind of killing he was thinking of?
"Assassin?" he tried asking.
"Mm," Lu Chen responded nonchalantly.
Xiao Feng's eyes immediately sparkled with excitement.
He knew Brother Chen couldn't be an ordinary person! He was actually an assassin, like in movies and novels.
So cool!
Xiao Feng's eyes were full of admiration. He decided he would definitely learn well from Brother Chen from now on!
Lu Chen kept adjusting the radio, pressing this button and turning that dial.
Soon, a static noise came from the device.
Lu Chen tuned for a long time, but it was all just static noise.
Suddenly, a clear female voice came through:
"This is Xiang City TV Station. We've been without water and food for two days. Is there any kind soul who can come save us? We really don't want to die..."
As soon as those words finished, the channel erupted into static again.
It was unclear if their equipment had run out of power or if something else had happened.
Lu Chen continued tuning.
After some busy signals, another voice came through:
"Rongsheng Base no longer has the capacity to accept new survivors. Please find your own way to survive. We apologize."
This message kept repeating.
Yun Xiaoxiao and the others had anticipated this situation, so they weren't particularly surprised.
If a base only consumed its stockpile to feed an endless stream of idle people, it would eventually run out of supplies.
Zhao Rongyan was already dead, which meant the internal strife that led to Rongsheng Base's destruction in the previous life might not happen now.
But they still faced many problems at present.
As for how things would develop later, it would depend on the decisions of those in power.
Lu Chen continued adjusting the radio.
There were calls for help, rescue information from large bases, and of course some people just venting their feelings out of boredom.
For example, there was one who called himself "The Manliest Man at Sea".
"Hello everyone, another beautiful day has begun!
This is your good friend, the Manliest Man at Sea, accompanying you through the 90th day of the apocalypse. I'm glad we're all still alive.
Apart from the lack of vegetables, and the pork, beef, chicken, etc. that I miss, life at sea is still quite nice.
Feeling the sea breeze, drinking distilled seawater, eating fish caught from the sea.
Although I'm the only one here, as long as I don't feel lonely, I'm not lonely.
Let me tell you something funny.
Yesterday afternoon when I was fishing, I actually heard a fish calling my name. It gave me quite a fright.
Can you guess what really happened in the end?"
He deliberately paused for three seconds to build suspense.
Then he continued, "It turns out it was just a dream I had at night. Haha, isn't that hilarious?"
After listening to the whole spiel, the three of them twitched their mouths, barely stopping themselves from rolling their eyes.
Why did they waste time listening to this person's nonsense?!
After hearing information from other bases, Yun Xiaoxiao and the others also understood the general situation in other places.
Many cities had established bases.
Some were spontaneously organized by people, while others were set up by the government and military.
The bases varied in size, from tens of thousands of people to just a dozen or so.
As for those cities with no information on the radio, it was unclear whether they weren't using radios or if the cities had been completely overrun by zombies.
"Big brother, how can we send out our own message?"
"You want to send a message?" Lu Chen looked at Yun Xiaoxiao.
Yun Xiaoxiao nodded.
She briefly explained the situation with the mission.
"Another dream?" Lu Chen raised an eyebrow.
Yun Xiaoxiao: "...Mm."
She seemed to have used this excuse before.
This couldn't fool everyone. When things like water, electricity, and gas suddenly appeared, she alone couldn't explain it.
Lu Chen and the others were those she trusted most. With someone covering for her, fooling others wouldn't be a problem.
"Have you thought about what to say?" Lu Chen asked.
Xiao Feng, who was beside them, was a bit surprised. Brother Chen seemed to trust the little shorty especially.
Of course, he trusted her too. After all, the super fortress she mentioned had already appeared. What else was impossible?
However, when he heard about the automatic and permanent supply of water, electricity, and gas just now, he was still stunned for a second or two.
But Brother Chen didn't hesitate for even a moment.
Impressive! As expected, great people think differently!
"I've thought it through mostly, but we haven't decided on a name for our base yet. We can discuss that during lunch later."
"I just wanted to ask how to do this. Once we figure it out, we can broadcast the message directly."
Lu Chen understood, but he shook his head.
"If you want the whole of Hua Country to hear it, this machine's power is too low. We need a high-power transmitter."
"Where can we usually find those?"
"TV and radio stations, I suppose."
Seeing Yun Xiaoxiao thinking, Lu Chen spoke frankly.
"If you're planning to go to a TV station to get these machines, we can go to either Rong City or Xiang City from here.
We might be a bit closer to Xiang City compared to Rong City.
Now we need to see which of these two places' TV stations we're more familiar with."
"Let's ask everyone at lunch then."
While Yun Xiaoxiao was talking to Lu Chen, she didn't notice Xiao Feng's expression darkening slightly when he heard about Xiang City's TV and radio station.
"I'm hungry~"
Just then, Ling Jing spoke up from the bed.
The three of them: !!
"Uh... I just remembered Brother Yang said he'd teach me how to repair cars this morning. I'll go check on that."
Xiao Feng immediately turned and walked towards the door, as if some terrible flood was chasing him.
Yun Xiaoxiao and Lu Chen exchanged a glance.
Lu Chen coughed lightly.
"You untie him and let him eat by himself. If he dares to misbehave, we'll tie him up again."
Yun Xiaoxiao immediately agreed.
"I think that's a good idea!"
With both of them in agreement, Yun Xiaoxiao took out all the fresh meat.
Although they had moved many livestock out, the time flow in the space was slower than outside, so some of the original batch of livestock in the space even had grandchildren now.
She didn't lack these things.
Although Ling Jing ate a lot, it was still within an acceptable range.
After arranging the food, the two of them went to the door. Yun Xiaoxiao waved her hand, and the vines on Ling Jing's body suddenly disappeared.
"Bang."
The door closed, and both of them let out a sigh of relief at the same time.
Fortunately, they didn't have to see him eating meat!
Finally, they didn't have to feed him meat anymore!
---
Xiangfu Village.
"Sister Ying, open the door, it's Liu Wanfu."
Zhou Xiuying was sitting woodenly in her yard, looking at the newly dug grave and crying, when she heard the shout from outside.
She recognized it as the voice of their village chief.
She wiped her tears, walked to the door, and opened it.
As soon as she opened the door, she saw more than a dozen people standing outside.
