Reborn in the Apocalypse: A Commoner's Survival Log

Seeing that everyone agreed, Zhou Yang immediately had Wandou turn around and return to the construction site a few kilometers away.

As soon as they landed, Zhou Yang took out his old beat-up SUV and a bowl of fresh chicken blood and handed them to Shen Zechuan and Yan Fei.

After the two set off, Zhou Yang and the other two took Wandou into the construction site.

It seems construction has just begun here; only part of the foundation has been excavated so far. Besides the large pit in the middle, covering several thousand square meters, there are only a few piles of stones and building materials in the distance.

As soon as Lu Xingye stood at the edge of the pit, he started pumping water. In order to speed up the process, he simply drained the water, so the water was useless and was directly discharged into the drainage ditch next to him.

Fortunately, the water in the pit wasn't deep, and it was pumped out almost completely in no time. Zhou Yang and the others took a look and estimated that the depth was about five or six meters.

However, there was a thick layer of silt underneath. Although it did not affect the plan to kill the zombies, too much water would affect the burning progress. So, Lu Xingye was asked to extract the water from the silt as well.

This time, only purified water was extracted, so Zhou Yang quickly grabbed an empty water storage bucket to collect it.

Once the silt at the bottom of the pit dried completely, the pit's depth visibly decreased again.

Then the group took gasoline cans and poured gasoline into the pit from all directions.

After they finished their work and had just caught their breath, they heard the sound of a car engine. They guessed that Shen Zechuan and Yan Fei had returned, and immediately perked up and gathered around the pile of building materials.

Sure enough, a short while later, Shen Zechuan was seen driving Yan Fei at high speed from the construction site entrance, kicking up a cloud of dust, followed by a long trail of zombies that could not be seen in sight.

"Quickly, jump out of the car, then let the zombies follow the car into the pit," Zhou Yang shouted as soon as he saw them come in.

Upon hearing this, Shen Zechuan and Yan Fei did not hesitate. Before the car drove into the deep pit, they jumped out and rolled a few times before running to the other side of the pit, to Zhou Yang and the others.

After the two returned safely, Zhou Yang, in order to make the zombies focus all their attention on the pit and then obediently go into the pit himself, had Chai Jin throw several bags of fresh chicken blood into the pit.

Tsk, that's the blood of a chicken that grew up eating spring water in his space, it's even more fragrant than the blood of a mutated chicken.

He felt a pang of regret thinking about it; these zombies were really getting off easy...

The zombies followed the car all the way to the edge of the pit. Then, the zombies in the front row fell in one by one like dumplings being dropped into a pot. Even if a zombie occasionally realized something was wrong, it could only be helplessly pushed down by the countless zombies behind it.

In addition, the strong smell of fresh chicken blood that Zhou Yang and the others threw in caused the zombies to jump in like madmen, and soon they were all gone.

Only a small group of zombies at the very back of the train noticed Zhou Yang and the other survivors and turned around.

However, due to the vast difference in strength, they were all killed and their crystal cores were taken in just a few moves.

Seeing the pit crammed full of zombies, the group was quite satisfied and quickly told Pea to start a fire.

With a few bursts of fire, the deep pit was instantly transformed into a sea of ​​flames, and the zombies were burned to the point of only howling.

Then all that's left is to wait quietly for the zombies to burn to ashes.

However, because the waiting time was too boring, Zhou Yang simply took out two decks of cards, and the group sat down and started playing Dou Dizhu (a popular Chinese card game).

The wager is that whoever wins the most will have to cook the group meals for the following week.

They played dozens of rounds, until their necks ached and their legs went numb, before they finally had to stop.

In the end, the person who won the most was Chai Jin.

There was nothing that could be done; everyone was throwing the game in various ways, and Chai Jin was always completely bewildered when he won.

However, Chai Jin has a good temper and doesn't care too much. At worst, they'll just give up and eat instant noodles together.

Although his cooking skills are average, he has always been very good at making instant noodles, which is recognized by everyone.

After putting away the card game and stretching their muscles, the group went to the edge of the pit to observe the situation inside.

The supernatural fire was already much more powerful than ordinary fire, and Pea's strength was at least around level 4 for humans, so when this fire was used, most of the zombies were burned to ashes.

Once the fire in the pit had been extinguished and the temperature had dropped a bit, the group began to go down and collect the crystal cores.

But after picking up only a few, everyone felt that the future was bleak.

A huge pit spanning several thousand square meters, containing nearly ten thousand zombies—how long would it take them to collect them all? It's exhausting.

So, the group called on Yan Fei again to make some metal screens for them.

Yan Fei didn't waste any words. He quickly wove a few pieces out of the building materials next to him. After a pause, he turned to ask, "Why didn't we just make a metal mesh to put at the bottom of the pit from the beginning?"

Others: ...What you said makes a lot of sense, but why didn't you say so sooner!

Zhou Yang touched his forehead and said, "Next time. I think this pit is quite useful. We can use it again to make traps to kill zombies later."

Everyone else nodded in agreement: "Great idea! Next time, let's just use a metal drying net!"

The group searched the deep pit for about an hour with sieves before finally managing to extract all the crystal cores.

Although it was tiring, the rewards were very rewarding.

They collected a large number of first- and second-level crystal cores, and even many third-level ones.

It's a pity that most of them are ordinary crystal cores, and crystal cores with attributes account for a small percentage.

This wave of attacks has wiped out all the zombies in the surrounding area at once; if they want to attract more zombies, they'll have to go to a more distant place.

However, considering that they hadn't yet reached their main destination, they had to suppress their desire to go on another trip.

Their main destination this time was Xin'an City People's Hospital.

It's close to the city center, a high concentration of zombies, and the easiest place for advanced zombies to appear.

They also wanted to collect some medical supplies to bring back to the base.

Just the other day, they heard Gu Tianqi mention that the base was running low on medical supplies and that he was planning to go to several pharmaceutical factories in Xin'an City to find usable production lines to study.

However, without professional production personnel and raw materials, the base still has a long way to go before it can produce medicines.

Therefore, readily available medicines are still very scarce.

After carefully storing the crystal cores, the group boarded the pea again and headed towards the Municipal People's Hospital.
