Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus

Li Yu looked at the two men, who appeared somewhat exhausted, and said, ”You guys take a nap first, and we’ll switch every four and a half hours. I’ll keep watch first, then Tiezi, followed by Dapao.”

The two agreed and soon started to sleep in the room behind.

Because most of the items here were moved away initially, only some useless or rather worn-out things were left.

Fortunately, there were still two wooden beds left, which had been used for over a decade; the bed frames emitted a faint musty smell in the damp weather.

Despite this, the two curled up and slept without complaints.

Li Yu withdrew his gaze, motionless as a wolf by the window, but from his gaze and posture, one might think he had fallen asleep if viewed from behind.

However, from the front, one could see his eyes fixed steadily in a specific direction.

Yet, even after four and a half hours, Li Yu had not spotted any signs of people.

Only... about a dozen zombies.

He went to the back room, shook Li Tie awake to take over the shift.

Looking at the bed, Li Yu chose not to lie down as he felt uneasy being outside the base.

There was a wooden chair nearby; he pulled his coat over it, the submachine gun tightly pressed against his chest, dagger in his right hand.

He took a deep breath and closed his eyes.

He didn’t want to sleep, but he could not afford not to; lack of sleep would decrease his spiritual power.

In this posture, Li Yu could get up at any moment, ready to respond immediately and retaliate if enemies approached.

Li Tie saw Li Yu in this state and felt even more astonished; Li Yu’s vigilance now exceeded even that of the King of Soldiers he had encountered in the team before.

Time slowly passed.

After Li Tie’s shift, Dapao started his.

At 5:30 in the morning, it was barely light. All was quiet.

Zhao Dapao was drinking water from a flask he took out of his bag.

Suddenly, he saw a flash of light ahead—it was a car light!

Zhao Dapao, thrilled, hurried on small quick steps to the back room.

He was about 3 meters away from Li Yu when, before he could speak, he saw Li Yu, who had been sitting on the stool with closed eyes, suddenly open them.

His eyes were filled with a murderous intent, which made Zhao Dapao shiver.

So, he said, ”Brother Yu, something’s up! I saw...”

Before he could finish, Li Yu had already stood up and walked towards the window, saying at the same time, ”Wake up Tiezi.”

At the window, Li Yu picked up the telescope and saw the light getting closer.

They were finally coming! A fierce intensity grew in Li Yu’s heart.

As the light approached, the telescope clearly showed a car driving on the national road.

It moved very slowly, very slowly.

Now that Li Tie was also awake, he and Zhao Dapao stood on either side of Li Yu, peering at the car through the window.

The car moved slowly along the national road.

Its window rolled down, and a middle-aged man in the passenger seat seemed to be closely observing something, his flashlight continuously sweeping the road surface.

Suddenly, the car stopped.

The middle-aged man got out of the car in the rain, walked to the back of the car, squatted down, and observed the road surface.

Then, he moved to the front of the car, squatted down under the headlights, touched the ground, and inspected the stationary vehicles beside the road.

The man then got back into the car, and it started moving slowly again.

The speed was very slow, as if scouting something.

The pace of the car was glacially slow, as Li Yu and the others watched it slowly advance, they ducked their heads down, peeking through the curtains, closely observing these people. The car lights seemed to purposefully sweep across the building where Li Yu and others were.

But it seemed they found nothing; the vehicle continued its slow progress, passing the national road opposite Li Yu and their building.

Until 200 meters later, at the junction of the national highway and the township road, it stopped.

The middle-aged man in the passenger seat got out of the vehicle again and walked in the direction of the township road.

On the township road, Li Yu stopped two cars beside the road for some cover.

The two cars did not block the road completely, as that would be too obvious.

The middle-aged man did not pay attention to the two cars; instead, he was carefully observing the ground of the township road.

The surface of the township road, being cement and lacking maintenance, easily accumulated mud and sand, unlike the national highway.

Li Yu was somewhat surprised to see the actions of the middle-aged man.

Normally, Li Yu would clean the ground every time he returned to leave no trace of tire tracks.

Today, by some freak chance he didn’t clean, and yet this man managed to notice!

”Brother, what is he doing? Does he know where our base is?” Li Tie asked from the side.

Li Yu’s expression grew serious as he watched the middle-aged man push aside the water on the ground, closely inspecting it.

Seeming to have a guess, the middle-aged man returned back to the national highway, took few steps forward, and began examining the ground.

With a confident smile on his face, he slowly walked towards the vehicle.

Reaching the car, the middle-aged man seemed to speak a few words to the people inside.

The vehicle stayed there for a while, the occupants appearing to discuss something.

After a few minutes, the vehicle turned around. Instead of entering the township road, it turned back in the direction it came from.

Seeing the car turn around, the middle-aged man slowly walked towards it, preparing to get in.

Seeing the actions of the middle-aged man, Li Yu turned to Li Tie, saying, ”He definitely noticed, let’s go down. Tiezi, you block them later, Dapao and I will hide in that concrete pipe and ambush from behind.”

”Shoot directly if there’s any problem. If they have guns, kill them. If they don’t, leave them alive.”

”Also, Tiezi, you’ll need to kill the driver.”

After saying this, Li Yu headed downstairs.

The three quickly reached downstairs, Li Tie hiding behind a large roadside tree.

Li Yu and Zhao Dapao hid in a concrete pipe across the road.

Instead of directly entering the township road, the vehicle headed straight towards them.

Unlike before, the vehicle was now traveling much faster.

Seeing the distance closing to less than 20 meters, Li Tie suddenly ran in front of the vehicle.

Holding his gun, he was about to shoot the person in the driver’s seat.

The vehicle didn’t stop, but instead sped up, racing straight towards Li Tie.

Li Tie was about to dodge to the side.

Bang! Bang!

Two gunshots, two bullets precisely hit the two rear tires of the vehicle.

It was Li Yu and Zhao Dapao!

Always the best marksmen in the base, even in the dim light of dawn, they accurately shot the vehicle’s rear tires.

As the car sped towards Li Tie, its rear tires were instantly blown out, making the car swerve erratically to the roadside.

It didn’t hit Li Tie; it passed right beside him on the right.

Li Tie could clearly see the person in the driver’s seat.

Remembering Li Yu’s instructions, he raised his gun.

He fired, shooting the driver in the head!

The vehicle, already swerving, had the driver desperately trying to control the steering wheel.

But with the driver now dead, the vehicle instantly lost control.

With a crash, it slammed into a roadside tree.
