Reborn in the Apocalypse: A Commoner's Survival Log

Chapter 168 Arrival at Baiji Mountain

Because it was mutated beef, Zhou Yang was full after only a few pieces. However, what started as small pieces had now become several large pieces, even more than what the researchers, who were level one or two ability users, ate.

In the end, most of the beef was still obtained by Yan Fei and a few others.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, it got dark.

After discussing it, the group decided not to linger there, but to rest for a while and then continue their journey through the night.

Anyway, it's not too far from Baijishan Base, so I might as well go back to the base overnight.

However, we still need to contact the base before going back, in case we can't get in.

Fortunately, Yan Fei always carried a satellite phone with him.

After discussing it, Yan Fei went to the side and called Gu Tianqi to inform him that they would arrive that night and to ask the guards at the base gate to meet them at any time.

While Yan Fei was on the phone and everyone else was resting, Zhou Yang pulled Shen Zechuan aside, said goodbye to Yu Jing and the others, and then took Wandou for a walk to digest their food.

After walking a little further, she whispered to Shen Zechuan, "Shall we catch the calf that escaped earlier and put it into our space? That way, we'll have cows in our space, and if there are both males and females, they'll produce many more calves. That way, we can catch one whenever we want to eat beef."

Shen Zechuan always granted Zhou Yang's requests, so he nodded immediately: "Sure! But they've all run far away now. If I'd known you wanted them, I would have caught them for you back then!"

"No way! If you take those cows in front of so many people, won't that expose the space? If it were just the few of us, it would be fine, but there are so many unfamiliar researchers and their families here. Those people might not be reliable."

Besides, it's not too late to catch up now, we have Pea. We can catch up and come back in no time, it probably won't even take a few minutes."

"Okay, let's go now and come back quickly!"

So Zhou Yang immediately made the pea grow bigger. The pea carried the two of them and ran away.

Yan Fei and the others naturally saw that the pea had grown bigger, and they took the two of them and ran out, but they all thought that the two of them were just having a whim and wanted to go out for a run, so they didn't take it to heart.

Following the scent of the calf, Pea found it grazing in the woods several kilometers away in less than two minutes.

Zhou Yang didn't even go down; he simply released the little tigers, bound them up, and put them into his spatial storage.

After settling them in the mountains, he turned and patted Pea's neck: "Alright, kid, let's go back."

Upon hearing this, Pea turned around and led the two of them back to the camp without complaint.

When they arrived at their destination, Zhou Yang was about to get off when Shen Zechuan grabbed her waist.

"How about we skip the car and just ride Pea back? The car's crowded anyway, and if we sit on Pea, we can make room for them. Besides, I've been driving all day, and I want to rest."

As she spoke, she nuzzled her face against Zhou Yang's shoulder, looking pitiful.

Zhou Yang: "..." You, a late-stage Level 4 ability user, get tired after driving all day? Who would believe that?

Besides, if such a big pea were to travel with a vehicle, it would have to walk fast, which would be so uncomfortable for a pea that likes to run...

So Zhou Yang turned around and immediately rejected the idea: "Go down and drive your car! Do you think I don't know how much energy a Level 4 ability user has? How could you possibly get tired after driving all day?"

Shen Zechuan, unfazed by being exposed, continued, "That's fine too, but when we get back, shall we all go back to our spatial dimension and sleep like there's no tomorrow?"

Zhou Yang knew exactly what Shen Zechuan wanted to say after thinking about it carefully. His face immediately flushed. Seeing that Yan Fei and the others were already packing their things and preparing to continue their journey, he could only nod.

"Alright, alright, I got it, hurry up and get down! Everyone needs to get ready to leave!"

Shen Zechuan then smiled and let go, kissed Zhou Yang on the cheek, jumped down first, and then turned around to catch Zhou Yang.

As soon as the two of them got off, Pea shrank back to its medium size and followed behind them, wagging its tail.

After the two of them walked back, everyone had finished packing up and was just waiting for Zhou Yang to come and collect their things.

Without saying a word, Zhou Yang packed up the pots, pans, and other utensils, then turned and got into the car.

Left behind, Shen Zechuan touched his nose and quickly caught up, obediently going to the driver's seat to be the driver.

The convoy continued its journey.

At this time, it was only a few hundred kilometers away from the Baijishan base. If we didn't take a detour, it would only take three or four hours to get there, but that would mean passing through the Yishan mountain range.

The Yishan Mountains are now home to countless mutated plants, so their small team wouldn't be afraid if they were traveling normally.

However, given that they were currently accompanied by a group of researchers who were completely defenseless and their equally incapable family members, they ultimately decided to take a detour to avoid any unforeseen circumstances.

This will just add about an hour to the journey.

Not long after they set off, it got completely dark, and the convoy had to slow down.

The visibility is not as good at night as during the day, so everyone had to be on their guard and pay close attention to what was happening outside.

Although there is Xu Qingtang among them who has psychic abilities, she has only just reached level 3 and her range of perception is limited, so they still have to rely on themselves.

However, once we get back, we must arrange Xu Qingtang's upgrade. We should upgrade her to level 3 first and then talk about the later stages. As for the level 4 mental crystal core, we should hurry up and find it.

Because we encountered some zombies and mutated animals along the way, it took us more than 5 hours to finally arrive at Baijishan City. We just need to follow the main road and bypass the city to reach the base.

Although they were less than an hour's drive from their destination, no one dared to relax for a moment.

Fortunately, the base had thoroughly searched the area around Baiji City and cleared everything that needed to be cleared. There were no unexpected incidents along the way, and the group arrived at the Baiji Mountain Base without any problems.

After stopping outside the base gate, Yan Fei quickly made another call to Gu Tianqi. Less than two minutes later, the two incandescent lights hanging on the observation deck at the base gate suddenly turned on.

Then the base gate was slowly lowered and placed across the moat.

Seeing this, everyone immediately drove into the base without hesitation.

As soon as they entered, a group of soldiers surrounded them and conducted a routine check.

Yan Fei and his group were old acquaintances, so they were only given a quick look and moved on. Yu Jing and the others, being strangers, were examined much more thoroughly.

But it didn't take much time.

While they were inspecting, Gu Tianqi rushed over and excitedly patted Yan Fei on the shoulder as soon as he saw them.

"I've finally got you all back! So, where's what I asked for?!"

"I remember! Zhou Yang put them all in his spatial storage. You don't even care about me that much, all you do is take your things!" Yan Fei rolled his eyes at his uncle, his words full of disdain.

Gu Tianqi scratched his head and chuckled, "Hey, I just believe in your abilities, don't I? Your dad said you just leveled up to level 5, and you're really powerful now! Besides, the base is in a hurry to use those things, how could I not be anxious?"

After saying that, he turned to Zhou Yang and said, "Little Zhou, take the things out and let me take a look."

“Okay!” Zhou Yang nodded and took out the things Gu Tianqi needed, including the blueprints.

"Special ability detection device, energy fluctuation detector, virus detection reagent, blood analysis instrument... Hehe, all set!"

Gu Tianqi looked at the things scattered on the ground and couldn't stop smiling. He immediately ordered his soldiers to move everything away, and sent some equipment blueprints directly to the research institute for the two professors.
