End of the World

The team brought back three generators and dozens of bundles of cables and other lighting fixtures from the hardware store.

That night, Muronan distributed the things. The generator would be installed in the sawmill because there was a transformer there. It would be connected to the sawmill's distribution box, and other lines would be led out from there.

The distributed cables and lamps can be disassembled and wired by yourself first, and then a professional electrician will connect the wires and supply power when the time comes, saving installation time.

Since the number of leakage protection switches brought back is limited, only several houses can share one set of switches. In addition, the lines of public street lighting are separated from domestic electricity.

Originally they wanted to remove the solar street lights on the main roads in the town to save electricity, but Chen Guangjun said that was not practical because there were many trees in the camp and the sun was mostly blocked by the shade.

There are many trees in the campsite, which is necessary for concealment. If the trees are bare, they will be easily discovered.

Besides, who knows whether those solar street lights are real or fake? Chen Guangjun has seen them before. Most of the municipal solar lights in Dongzhou City require additional electricity support, and the LED lights installed in the camp do not consume much electricity.

If you want solar energy, the camp can go to Lianheng Mountain, find an ideal location, and set up a photovoltaic power station.

On the second day, Mu Ruonan came up and calculated the day to go into the mountains to get animal meat. Of course, she planned to invite the four of them to go with her, and Bao Xiu would also go with them.

The hunter camp is located deep in Lianheng Mountain. It is built at the mouth of a small stream flowing down the mountain, mainly for the convenience of getting water.

It is too deep for vehicles to reach, so half of the journey has to be done on foot.

The four of them asked about the path marked on the map, and Mu Ruonan replied with a smile that there was no road that could cross the mountains in Shili Town.

There is indeed a forest protection zone deep in Lianheng Mountain, but because it is so deep, the control is not strict. The roads marked on the map may have been obtained from the town government.

It may be a temporary route when people were sent into the mountains to inspect the mountains. The map publisher is too irresponsible to say so. It can only be used for reference.

"We're almost there!" said Uncle Bao, who was driving.

The vehicle stopped and there was a small wooden shed next to it, which turned out to be a garage with a pickup truck parked inside. Mu Ruonan said it was prepared for hunters so that they could quickly rush back to the camp for help if anything happened.

The next step was still a few kilometers, and they had to walk. The six of them carried supplies on their backs and followed into the trail.

The surroundings were covered with white snow, and the grass and trees were covered with a layer of frost, which was crystal clear and the scenery was unique. If there were no outsiders, Dafeng would have wanted to sing a song, even though he might get beaten.

The road was not too difficult to walk on, but everyone had a different load, so we took a few breaks along the way.

"The camp is just ahead, I wonder if they are home!"

Mu Ruonan led the way. She had been here several times and was still a little out of breath.

The camp was located on a gentle leeward slope. There were some racks on the sloping mountain, and the racks were covered with animal skins.

Uncle Bao had great stamina. He took two steps forward and called out, "Yang Yan! Mo Chen!"

After waiting for a few seconds, no one responded. It seemed that no one was home.

"Let's go up!" Uncle Bao spread his hands and carried his things to the flat ground.

The camp was quiet, there was really no one at home. According to Mu Ruonan, there were five hunters outside, and usually one person would be left in the camp, but today was unfortunate.

Mu Ruonan had the key to the camp, so he asked everyone to go inside to avoid the cold. There was a stove in the house, but the charcoal fire had long been extinguished, as if the owner had been away from home for more than a day.

This is not surprising, as they often have to travel great distances to hunt prey, away from home for more than three to five days.

"Will something happen?" Uncle Bao was a little restless.

"No, it has happened before!" Mu Ruonan was not very worried.

"It's not a good time to come, let's warm ourselves by the fire!"

Although the campsite was on the leeward side and had no big trees to provide shelter, it was a little colder than in the woods.

Chen Guangjun was a man who could not sit still, so he sat for a while and then went to look out. Mu Ruonan was chatting with He Yuxin, while Wu Bin and Dafeng also felt bored and went outside.

Until dark, no one came back, and even Mu Ruonan was a little worried.

After it was completely dark, I finally heard some noise coming from outside.

Chen Guangjun was the first to discover it.

"Someone is coming. Is he one of yours?"

Mu Ruonan and Uncle Bao ran out and saw the hunter.

"Ruonan? Why are you here?" the hunter asked in surprise.

"Uncle Yang, it's almost time to deliver the supplies. Where are the others?" Mu Ruonan asked.

"Yao Xing and Wu Yanghong are injured. Mo Chen and the others are taking care of them. I'm back to get some medicine!"

"What's going on? Is it serious?"

The hunter sighed and said, "They were chasing a beast and accidentally slipped and fell from a height. You came just in time. Take them back tomorrow!"

"Okay, let's bring them back first!" Mu Ruonan and Uncle Bao looked at each other.

Yang Yan nodded, but he had no interest in meeting the four new faces behind him.

It was already late at night when the wounded were carried back. Two of them were seriously injured and had already fallen into coma. He Yuxin helped bandage them and took them back to the camp to be seen by a doctor at dawn.

Yang Yan explained what happened to several people.

"Uncle Yang, you guys have to be careful too!"

"Don't worry, we will pay attention!"

The hunter then looked at the four people. Yang Yan looked at He Yuxin who was bandaging the wound skillfully and said with a smile, "The new friend you met is really good!"

"Well, they all came from outside!" Mu Ruonan briefly explained the origins of the four people.

"Oh? It turns out you are a friend from Dongzhou!" Yang Yan was moved after hearing this. As far as they were concerned, they had never even left the town, let alone walked such a long way.

Just hearing about their experiences on the road amazed them, and their knowledge far exceeded theirs.

Then Mu Ruolin also told Yang Yan about the attack on the camp a few days ago. Yang Yan did not expect so many things to happen recently.

"So Li Fenghua is dead too!"

Li Fenghua is the man who tried to smooth things over before. He is one of the administrators.

"Yes, and Wang Dai!" Mu Ruonan felt a little depressed when talking about this.

"Alas! It's all fate!" Yang Yan sighed. He had some friendship with Li Fenghua.

"Then it's just you and Le Xing who are left to manage the camp. Le Xing is not a pragmatic person, so you have to be careful!"

"You don't like management, so it's better to nominate a few more people. They must be reliable!" Yang Yan reminded.

"Uncle Yang, what do you think of him?" Mu Ruonan suddenly pointed at Chen Guangjun and asked.

The person involved was completely confused, but when Mu Ruonan went on a mission with him, she discovered that Chen Guangjun was not only strong but also clear-headed and calm, making him very suitable to be a leader.

"Guangjun is from the SWAT team!"

"So that's how it is. No wonder you recommended him. Just trust him to make the decision!" Yang Yan smiled faintly. He noticed that Chen Guangjun had a different temperament at first glance.

"Hehe, my brother Jun is so popular, why not become his wife!" Dafeng grinned.

"Go away!" Chen Guangjun couldn't help but kick him.

Mu Ruonan looked at Chen Guangjun with a smile in her eyes, which made him feel a little uncomfortable, and he looked at Wu Bin for help.

Wu Bin looked up at the roof, staring at the bacon on it in a trance, as if attracted by some magical power.

At daybreak the next day, several people carried the two wounded down the mountain. It might take two or three hours on the road.

"Uncle Yang, please be careful!" Mu Ruonan warned.

"Don't worry, just lift it carefully!" Yang Yan waved his hand.

Four men carried the wounded, and two girls carried dozens of kilograms of meat. They couldn't carry too much, so they would shorten the time next time.

When we returned to the parking spot, two hours had passed and the sky was already bright.

The vehicle cannot be started directly because the fuel tank has already frozen. There is a gas stove in the car, so the only way is to heat up the fuel tank, which takes about ten minutes.

When the few people returned to the logging camp, nearly four hours had passed. The camp gate guard was a little surprised, wondering why they came back so early this time.

The guard greeted Mu Ruonan enthusiastically, but she anxiously asked him to get out of the way. When the guard saw the two people lying in the back of the carriage, he knew something had happened.

The vehicle stopped in the parking lot. The road to the clinic was not wide enough for traffic, but fortunately it was not too far.

"Uncle Bao, park the car and hand over the meat. Everyone else, come with me to the clinic to see Doctor Ding!" Mu Ruonan instructed.

So He Yuxin took Uncle Bao's place and helped carry the wounded.

When several people rushed to the clinic, they happened to encounter a commotion. Several people ran out of the clinic in panic with terrified faces.

"what happened?"

“Little…little zombie…!” Several people were trembling and couldn’t speak clearly.

"What little zombies? Are you okay?" Mu Ruonan walked to the door.

Several people immediately said, "Don't go in!"

"Ok?"

When Mu Ruonan turned around, he saw a baby with a black face and dragging umbilical cord. It crawled very fast and pounced on the dazed Mu Ruonan.

"call out!"

Chen Guangjun moved quickly and stabbed the baby directly in the forehead with a flying dagger.

"What are you doing!" Mu Ruonan came to her senses and scolded Chen Guangjun, subconsciously thinking that it was a baby.

"I hope you can figure it out first. Is the child you gave birth to so fierce that he will bite people as soon as he lands on the ground?"

"I...!" Mu Ruonan blushed. What was he talking about?

Before they could take a closer look, a cry for help was heard from the infirmary.

"Help!"

"Doctor Ding!" Mu Ruonan recognized the voice as Doctor Ding's and became very anxious.

"Dafeng, stay outside!" Chen Guangjun shouted to Dafeng.

He then pulled the dagger out of the dead baby's head.

"Be careful!" Mu Ruonan grabbed Chen Guangjun's hand, then quickly let go when she realized she had lost control.

"Don't worry!" Chen Guangjun gave him a reassuring look.

"Ho~"

As soon as I stepped into the clinic, I heard the roar of zombies and banging on the door.

Outside a door, there was a man who had just died. There were rows of small tooth marks on his neck, and he was obviously bitten to death by a baby zombie.

And the person inside was the zombie mother, and she was attacking the doctor.

Chen Guangjun even wondered how the pregnant woman was infected with the zombie virus?

"laugh!"

The zombies were so focused on the doctor hiding in the cabinet that they didn't notice Chen Guangjun coming in and were easily dealt with.

"It's okay, come out!"

Hearing the voice, Dr. Ding slowly opened the cabinet door and saw a tall figure outside.
