Rotting Land: Survive

Chapter 121: Glare From Across the Way (6)


Next, the group split into four smaller teams to prepare for the operation the following day.

First Group: "Resource Gathering Team"

Team Members: Tang Xiaoquan, Wei Yang, Ah Cheng

Main Task: Gather as many usable resources from the house as possible and pack them up for future use.

Second Group: "Weapon Preparation Team"

Team Members: Wang Qiang, Wu Chao

Main Task: Prepare the weapons and gear needed for each member's actions.

Third Group: "Action Preparation Team"

Team Members: Hu Xiaodong, Wen Quanxin

Main Task: Create lures for Zombies and monitor the movements of the "man opposite".

With the groups established, everyone set about their designated tasks.

Let's first talk about the "Resource Gathering" team.

This team's task seems simple but is in fact exceedingly complex, involving everything from food and drink to clothing for changing, from life-saving medicines to cooking utensils; in short, a large assortment of things.

Additionally, after gathering resources, you must classify and pack them.

Because no one can predict what might happen during the operation. If team members get separated, then in such a perilous world, having no reserves means certain death.

Therefore, Tang Xiaoquan must fully prepare each member to ensure they have survival resources even in the most difficult times, and the backpacks he is responsible for are bearing this heavy responsibility.

This clearly shows that anyone fulfilling this role must possess two qualities: "patience" and "responsibility".

This is why Tang Xiaoquan assigned Wei Yang and Ah Cheng to this team.

After discussing the first group, let's move on to the third group.

As the "Action Preparation Team", Hu Xiaodong and Wen Quanxin face immense pressure.

It is vital to know that the success or failure of their tasks will directly impact the success of this evacuation mission.

They cannot afford mistakes, such as the one that occurred during the last "throwing". A mistake means death.

Carefully insert soaked cloth strips into each bottle, and meticulously wipe off any residue on each bottle.

And in order to carry a few emergency bottles of "**" when leaving, Hu Xiaodong has specially made some modified bottle bombs with tight seals.

With two groups mentioned, naturally, we should also talk about the second group where Wang Qiang is.

Don't be fooled by his usual lack of an agenda or carelessness—when it comes to creative inventions, he truly has some skill.

Why do I say this? Let's look at what this so-called "Weapon Preparation Team" has prepared.

First: Corpse-Blocking Shield.

Can you guess the main material for this thing? It's actually the cardboard boxes Tang Xiaoquan used earlier for writing and drawing.

And this piece of waste, under the collaboration of Wang and Wu poking holes, hollowing out spaces, and tying ropes, has unexpectedly turned into a "defensive tool" like a treasure born from waste.

This is undeniably a stroke of genius and amazing creativity!

Next: Long Bear Anti-Bite Device

From the name, you might recall the big white bear sitting on the sofa, staring at the survivors during their first visit here.

In fact, since then, it has been mercilessly abandoned in the corner of the living room, ignored by everyone. Even the gentle and gracious Wei Yang couldn't change its fate.

But today, Wang Qiang took notice of it.

Why?

Because after discussing with Wu Chao, they both realized that during close combat with zombies, the most frightening and worrying thing is the bites from these beasts.

And if there is something that can prevent this from happening, the team's advancement speed would definitely increase significantly.

So an audacious and quirky idea formed in Wang Qiang's mind.

He wanted to make something like a bite-proof device, and the stuffed big white bear filled with fluffy cotton was undoubtedly the best material.

Why? There are three reasons:

Firstly: In terms of length, the sizable big white bear can almost completely cover the entire forearm, providing comprehensive protection.

Secondly, in terms of thickness, the inch-high thickness is sufficient to withstand any corpse tooth attacks. Its compressible and elastic material is suitable for any terrain and is easy to carry.

Thirdly, regarding toughness, both the cotton and plush have excellent elasticity, so even if the main body is bitten and compressed, it will promptly revert to its original state, not hindering reuse at all.

In conclusion, another epoch-making "great artifact" quietly came into being in this unknown small house.

Finally, Wang Qiang also made improvements to his Snake Spear. He attached a segment of detachable aluminum alloy hollow rod from a mop onto the spear's original handle and selected a suitable positioning point in the middle, securing it firmly with some twisted nails.

Thus, an elongated "Eight-footed Snake Spear" came into existence.

The three groups toiled until sundown before gradually gathering in the living room, and Wei Yang hastily prepared two side dishes as the group's dinner.

,

At the dining table, everyone communicated and reported on today's task preparations in turn, and Wang Qiang's new DIY weapon naturally became the most discussed topic, which made him feel quite proud, as if he were the reincarnation of Einstein.

"Xiao Tang, please tell us about your proposed action plan!" Hu Xiaodong gestured for everyone to quiet down and gave Tang Xiaoquan an encouraging look.

Due to a day of hard work, Tang Xiaoquan was extremely hungry at this moment, so upon hearing Hu Xiaodong's words, he hurriedly shoveled two spoonfuls of rice into his mouth. Once his stomach was somewhat appeased, he began to speak:

"Here's the plan: early tomorrow morning, we will first confirm action with the man. Once confirmed, Ah Cheng and I will be responsible for throwing '**' from the rooftop to attract the zombies' attention; Brother Hu, Wang Qiang, Wu Chao, you three will monitor the movements at point B on the ground; Wen Quanxin, Wei Yang, you two might have to work hard. I need you to be the mobile team, establishing a communication channel between Brother Hu and me to facilitate information transfer."

"In addition, please bear in mind two important points: First, our primary goal tomorrow is to evacuate, so please avoid direct contact with the zombies as much as possible—getting in the vehicles quickly is our top priority."

"Second, if the man opposite betrays us and doesn't keep his promise, I hope everyone can maintain enough rationality and not act impulsively, which would endanger the entire team!"

"That's basically all I have to say. If anyone has objections, please speak up now!"

Picking up his chopsticks, Tang Xiaoquan didn't care about what others thought; in short, he had said what needed to be said and done what needed to be done. So now, the most important thing for him was filling his stomach...
