Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus

The afternoon was stifling, with no breeze.

Corpses lay scattered on the ground, buzzed over by a horde of flies and mosquitoes.

Li Yu, accompanied by Li Zhengping, searched within the building complex, and after a thorough search, they discovered that the entire building was deserted.

In a room on the second floor, they also found some supplies.

But they did not move them immediately; instead, they went downstairs.

As soon as they came out, they saw Yang Tianlong and Zhao Dapao emerging from the adjacent building.

”Did I just hear gunshots from your side? Were there still people?” Yang Tianlong asked.

Li Yu nodded, his gaze carrying some confusion as he looked at them: ”Did you find anything in that building?”

”We just found some good stuff, some car repair equipment is still there,” Zhao Dapao said.

Upon hearing this, Li Yu said, ”Let’s hurry up and load the stuff onto the vehicles. We’ve been out for a long time, better head back earlier.”

Meanwhile, Li Tie and Li Hang, after a round of searching on the driving school lot without finding anyone else, also drove the armored vehicle over.

Everyone began moving the items.

Some of the long knives and iron clubs found on the ground were also moved into the vehicle by Li Yu.

In no time, everyone had finished packing the items.

They started the vehicles, ready to return.

Li Yu suddenly glanced in the direction they came from.

After pondering for a moment, he said, ”Head in the direction we came from today. Go to Song Min’s place.”

Li Tie seemed to guess something; with no objection, he drove in that direction.

...

The journey was silent; the mood among the group lacked the pleasure of having resolved a problem.

The atmosphere wasn’t exactly gloomy, but everyone just didn’t feel like talking.

Soon, the vehicles arrived at the bottom of a small building.

From afar, Song Min and her group could see Li Yu’s vehicles arriving, but differently this time, Li Yu brought five vehicles.

Besides the initial two, they also drove over three new energy electric vehicles this time.

Once the vehicles stopped, Li Yu knocked on the steel gate.

Song Min opened the gate warily.

”How did it go for you guys? Did you find Hao’s people?” Song Min asked.

”They’re all dead, some might have escaped, that place was too vast,” Li Yu said blandly.

The people behind Song Min stared at Li Yu and his group with faces full of shock, disbelief brimming in their eyes.

It was as if they could feel the murderous aura emanating from Li Yu’s group, their clothes stained with some fresh blood.

Surprise and awe were apparent in their expressions.

Li Yu unloaded some of the supplies from the vehicles, including precious food and weapons.

Song Min’s cold face softened slightly at the sight.

For Li Yu, retribution was a must; he didn’t mind lending a hand to those who helped him.

Song Min and her team reminded Li Yu not to go directly to Tianhua Building, and although Li Yu had no plans to go there directly, they informed him of Hao’s whereabouts.

This was a favor to Li Yu.

After unloading the items, Li Yu remained silent, casting his gaze over, looking at the pitiful group of women.

One by one, those who should have been at the prime of their youth were, in this post-apocalyptic world, forced to become decisively lethal.

Their faces were smeared with something dark, their hair uniformly cut short, their clothes designed for convenience, and they had hard cardboard taped around some key areas of their bodies.

This method, as much as possible, prevented them from being bitten by zombies.

These people had undergone a complete transformation from when Li Yu first met them.

In the apocalypse, people always find various ways to live on with difficulty and effort, and correspondingly, they think of various methods to cope with the harsh environment.

”Thank you.” Song Min opened her mouth slightly, saying earnestly with a touch of emotion in her eyes.

Li Yu didn’t look like an easy target, which was evident from their encounter with Brother Hao and others.

But Li Yu rescued them from Zhou Sheng’s grasp and now had brought them some of the things they urgently needed.

The people behind Song Min could not contain their joy upon seeing the items on the ground.

Li Yu, hearing Song Min’s thank you, responded just as he did back when Song Min informed him about Brother Hao, with those two words.

Li Yu did not offer to take them with him, nor did Song Min ask to go with them.

After Li Yu finished moving the items, he got into the car, looked back at them and said, ”I’m off, take care!”

After speaking, Li Tie drove the car out of the city.

Song Min and the others still seemed in disbelief as they looked at the supplies on the ground. Only after Li Yu and the rest left did they burst into cheers, as if only then did they shed their rigid disguise, acting like a bunch of young girls.

Song Min remained standing there, watching the direction of Li Yu’s departing vehicle,

her expression complex, seemingly pondering something, but ultimately she just sighed.

Beside her was a lively-looking young girl, excitedly picking up a box of food, happily saying to Song Min, ”Sister Song, we can eat well today, right... hehe.”

Song Min looked at the girl, who used to be the youngest in their shop and who had baby fat on her round face before the apocalypse, now reduced to a sharp chin.

Her heart ached a bit, but thinking that they were at least still alive, she considered that a form of luck.

So she managed a smile and said, ”We still need to ration properly, otherwise it’ll all be eaten up soon, and then we’ll be hungry again.”

....

Li Yu and the others in the car saw how happy Song Min and her group were over the supplies on the ground, items that they had plenty of at the base.

Many of the things were about to expire, seeing their joy provoked a myriad of emotions.

Had it not been for Li Yu’s foresight, they all might be living a life as hard as theirs.

At this moment, Li Yu was driving a new energy vehicle with a pleasant driving experience and very little noise.

Its range was still not very long, but it was more than enough for trips to the surrounding counties.

The sun was slowly setting in the sky.

No living people were encountered on the road, just an unchanging presence of zombies wandering like sentinels.

Through the glass, Li Yu solidly felt alive looking at these zombies.

Along the way, Li Yu pondered some problems. The apocalypse had erupted for several months now, and

based on the memories from before his rebirth, zombies would gather more and later move in more organized groups.

There had been a Zombie Tide before, which they had managed to fend off without being overrun. Their base had proven to be very robust.

But looking forward, the base had to become even more solidified on top of its current foundation.

Li Yu had many thoughts, ideas that didn’t feel quite mature yet.

At home, he had a father who specialized in engineering and people like Uncle, who came from the Armed Police. He would propose his ideas later, and everyone would discuss, strategize, and refine the details.

Under the sunset, five vehicles formed a convoy.

Moving against the sunset, with elongated shadows, as if greeting rebirth.
