MTL - Wasteland Commander-Chapter 9 Brush first

Chapter 9 Let’s brush up first

 “Nana, how did you find the supply box? I haven’t built the radar yet.”

"Sir, I can automatically sense red alert units within a radius of 300 meters, but I can't sense others. The supply box also belongs to the red alert unit. I can only sense it within this range. If you build a radar, The sensing range will be increased to a radius of five thousand meters, and you can also view it through the system."

Ye Fan nodded. Radar must be built. When he upgrades to platoon leader, he will save money to build radar.

 “I’m two hundred and ten meters east, let me take a look.”

Ye Fan came to the window. The street lights were dark, but he could still feel the location based on his memory.

“To the east, 210 meters... it should be in that building. Where is the location?”

“Supply boxes are located from the first to the second floor.”

“From the first floor to the second floor, that should be the supermarket in the community.”

There is a medium-sized supermarket in the community, about 600 square meters, with two floors. It seems to be called Fruit Industry. At noon, there should be at least about 30 people in the supermarket including salespersons and customers.

Moreover, the supermarket is close to the street, and there should be many zombies nearby, so this task is not easy.

 In the red alert interface, a supply box refresh countdown appears.

 It was night now and it was inconvenient to go out, so Ye Fan lay down and continued to sleep.

It was time for Wang Hu and Li Biao to change shifts. They opened the sleeping bags in the backpacks behind them and got in, sleeping directly on the ground.

 “What a good warrior.”

 Ye Fan fell asleep again with a smile on his face.

 At seven o'clock in the morning, I got up to make breakfast and cooked some vegetables that I had collected. The three of them were full and ready for action.

A new day has begun. Because the supply box takes 48 hours to refresh, Ye Fan is not in a hurry to pick it up. Now he only has two soldiers, and his strength is still a bit weak. He must at least collect the gold and silver in the unit building to strengthen him. Let’s talk about strength.

With Wang Hu and Li Biao, Ye Fan began to clean up the room with zombies.

With the fire ax in hand, opening the door becomes easier.

Li Biao is holding a fire ax and can split the security door open in three or four strokes. His power is astonishing.

 The moment the door opened, the two men fixed their bayonets and sniped at the zombies trying to rush out.

 This community is full of small bungalow houses. Generally, three zombies in a home are considered too many, and most of them only have one or two zombies.

Such a number did not pose a threat to the two superior soldiers at all. At first, Ye Fan was still on guard with a revolver, but soon he found that he was not needed, so he simply followed behind to pick up gold and silver jewelry.

 From working in the morning until around ten o'clock in the morning, Ye Fan collected a total of more than 260 yuan.

 Including the little leftover from yesterday, he already has 280 gold in his hand!

However, both Wang Hu and Li Biao are still superior soldiers and have not been upgraded. To upgrade from private to superior soldier, you need to kill thirty zombies, and to upgrade from superior soldier to corporal, you need to kill ninety zombies.

This unit building was finally emptied by Ye Fan.

In fact, nearly half of the houses have not been cleaned up. Because there was no movement in those houses and it was not known whether there were survivors, Ye Fan did not rush to break down the door.

Although we have arrived at the end of the world, Ye Fan doesn't know how long this end of the world will last? Whether civilized society would be restored in the future, before he was sure of this, he still had some concerns.

 “Nana, produce two more mobilization soldiers for me.”

Soon, two new soldiers appeared from the corridor.

 In this way, Ye Fan has four soldiers under his command, including two superior soldiers and two private soldiers.

 A first-class soldier has 90 rounds of ammunition and a private has 30 rounds of ammunition. The number of bullets at his disposal reaches 240 rounds.

  246 rounds to be precise, because he also had a revolver.

“The strength has become much stronger, and I can almost go to the supermarket to have a look.”

Four soldiers Wang Hu opened the way in front. Ye Fan deliberately asked Wang Hu to kill as many zombies as possible in order to be promoted to corporal as soon as possible.

 Two recruits followed Wang Hu, while Li Biao protected Ye Fan from behind. The group of five people walked towards the supermarket.

 Because the distance is close, there is no need to ride a motorcycle. If the situation is bad, you can run away at any time.

After exiting the quiet street, there is a service road in front, and the supermarket where the supply box is located is diagonally across the road.

Using the cover of the corner, Ye Fan looked over there and saw a hellish scene in front of the supermarket.

 Not to mention the abandoned cars on the road, he even saw a lot of bones in the supermarket.

 A rough estimate puts the number of bones in the hundreds.

And just in front of the supermarket, there are dozens of zombies wandering around.

“It seems that some people wanted to go to the supermarket to collect supplies, but no one succeeded, otherwise there wouldn’t be so many zombies.”

“Sir, there are a lot of zombies here. If you don’t shoot, there may be casualties.”

“Well, you are allowed to shoot, but be careful to save bullets.”

"clear!"

Yesterday, seeing Wang Hu lure away the zombies alone, Ye Fan became more courageous. The place he was in was on the outskirts of the city and the population was not particularly dense, so the problem should not be too big.

Li Biao stayed to protect Ye Fan, while Wang Hu led the other two people towards the supermarket.

 They quickly climbed onto the roof of a small truck.

 “Fire!”

Wang Hu gave the order and the three men shot at the same time.

  The banging of gunshots began to echo.

Each zombie was hit. Under the huge power of type 56, some of the heads burst directly, and some were biased. They would also beat a hole in their bodies, or fold their legs.

 Hearing the gunfire, the zombies in front of the supermarket immediately became restless.

They roared and rushed toward the pickup truck, but they didn't know how to climb onto the truck and could only wave their claws underneath.

Wang Hu and others have no fear. The zombies are closer, which makes them easier to kill.

If there were only these dozens of zombies, Ye Fan believed that a few of them could destroy them all.

 But gunshots rang out, and soon more zombies began to pour out of the surrounding shops and supermarkets.

Soon the number of zombies exceeded 100, and a large black mass surrounded the small truck.

This is the first crisis Ye Fan has encountered since he got the Red Alert Soldiers. There are too many zombies.

 The height of the small truck is not very high. After dozens of zombies fell, some zombies were able to reach the top of the truck.

“No, I’m afraid Wang Hu and the others don’t have enough bullets.”

Among the three people, only Wang Hu has 90 rounds of bullets. His hit rate has improved, but it is impossible for every shot to hit.

 To upgrade from one star to two stars, you need to kill 90 zombies. His bullets are not enough to upgrade the star.

 The two privates only have 30 rounds, which is not enough to upgrade.

 The number of zombies is increasing, and if this continues, the entire army may be annihilated.

 “Li Biao, support them.”

 “Sir, what about your safety?”

“It’s okay, I’ll stay here and won’t go out. The zombies are attracted to you. I’m safe. Go ahead.”

"yes!"

 Li Biao immediately followed from behind, raised his gun and fired.

 With internal and external cooperation, the pressure on Wang Hu was suddenly reduced a lot.

But it’s still not enough to clean up in front of the supermarket.

However, the number of zombies has decreased somewhat, and Ye Fan immediately issued an order to retreat.

 “Keep a certain number of bullets and get back quickly!”

Wang Hu and others received the order. Wang Hu replaced the third magazine and fired a burst of fire. Only a few bullets were left. Finally, a small open space was cleared, and the three people quickly retreated.

Zombies roared in pursuit from behind. Li Biao opened fire to cover, and several people began to rush out with their bayonets red.

Ye Fan also fired a few shots with his revolver, and five bullets knocked down a zombie, which was somewhat effective.

The Red Alert soldiers showed strong combat effectiveness and did not panic in times of crisis. They just rushed out of the zombies, ran back to the fifth floor in one breath, and locked the security door.

Zombies are not as fast as humans. After all, the community is safe and they escaped without being blocked.

 There is a security door blocking it, so it is safe for the time being.

The zombies lost their target. I don’t know where a few people went, wandering in the courtyard and corridors of the community.

“What’s the number of bullets you have?”

“Report, I have five rounds left.” Wang Hu said first.

 “I have twenty-two rounds left.” This is Li Biao’s.

 The other two privates each had only one round left.

"It's still a bit careless. The strength of four people is not enough to ensure safety in this area."

 Looking at his money, the number was 91. If he could collect all the gold and silver jewelry from the zombies in the supermarket, he should be able to add at least three more soldiers, which would be close to a squad.

"Let's wait until 12 o'clock at noon. After 12 o'clock, our bullets can be refreshed. It will be fine by then."

This is the advantage of Red Alert. If you can’t get rid of it once, refresh it and try again.

“Let’s eat first, and then it’s time to eat. Let’s go after we finish eating.”

 Ye Fan started to cook and prepare for the meal.

　　************

They retreated from here. On the second floor of the supermarket, someone quietly opened a corner of the closed curtain.
