Rebirth In The Apocalypse: Start By Building The Strongest Base

“Please give me a car, I'll leave on my own.”

Guo Qing made this request to her two former subordinates.

“You can take anything you want from this factory, but after all, it used to be my family's property. I only hope to exchange it for a chance to leave. I want to go to Yangcheng to find my family!”

Guo Qing said the last sentence to Qin Jin, without her previous arrogance, but with a pleading tone.

Qin Jin raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that after seeing her two subordinates defect to them, this woman would choose to leave alone.

He knew how risky it was to do so. A woman thinking of driving to Yangcheng to find relatives, even if her relatives were still alive, the journey alone could be described as a narrow escape from death.

But putting himself in her shoes...

If she wanted to join the base, not to mention whether he agreed or not, even if she reluctantly joined at a price, he could imagine the pain of being at everyone's mercy.

In the apocalypse, a woman who is still quite beautiful, without any support, would most likely end up as a plaything or food.

This woman wasn't as brain-dead as she seemed just now.

Indeed, no one should be underestimated.

He didn't agree for the time being. He had never planned to take in this woman. She had made him uncomfortable just now, and now it seemed that she had a deep mind. If she wanted to go out and die, it would be a win-win situation.

He looked at the two new recruits and raised his eyebrows at them, signaling them to decide.

It would also be good to do a favor for these two newcomers, so that they would work hard for the base in the future.

He expected them to see the situation clearly; he would not take this woman in.

Dong Hui and Wang Bin looked at each other, as if they had communicated silently. Finally, Dong Hui stood up again and took the initiative to say, “Boss, please give our general manager a chance to leave. Thank you!”

As expected, the two of them pleaded for their former superior, which was considered to be the end of their many years of colleagueship. Perhaps there were other factors involved, but no one knew.

“Okay.”

“I'll give you a car. We saw a lot of cars in the parking lot downstairs just now. You can choose one to drive away. My men will take you down there later.”

Qin Jin agreed to let this woman drive away on her own. As for the result, no one asked.

Everyone knew what to expect.

The atmosphere eased for a while.

The combat team found the two key members of the chemical factory and obtained detailed information about the factory and the transportation and storage of chemicals. Perhaps Dong Hui could create some surprises.

The two new recruits were also rescued and joined a new force. For now, it seemed that their future lives were guaranteed.

Finally, this woman, who was originally a high-level executive in the factory, also got what she wanted, giving her a chance to escape.

Even if no one knew what the final result would be.

Qin Jin glanced at the time. It was a little past two o'clock, and there was still some time to move some of the chemicals back to the base first.

Without delay, he directly ordered two team members to take Guo Qing downstairs, and the others continued to clear out any remaining zombies.

He left Zhong Yu, Dong Hui, and Wang Bin in the office, preparing to first understand the situation of the chemical factory with these two people.

There might be trouble after the power outage. After the combat team cleared the zombies, he would have to ask the two of them to check the situation inside the factory.

Some chemicals needed to be checked to see if they could still be stored properly after the power outage, otherwise it would be difficult to deal with problems later.

Everyone acted quickly.

Soon, only four people were left in the office.

Qin Jin came to a sofa by the window and sat down, asking the two newcomers:

“My name is Qin Jin, and I will be your new boss from now on. Now you can tell me what ready-made goods are in this chemical factory, and whether you can make explosives for me!”

“Speak freely! The outside world has already collapsed, so there's no need to be secretive. We need to have the power to protect ourselves, so we can only use every means possible.”

Zhong Yu had consciously turned on the recording equipment and taken out paper and pen, ready to record.

Dong Hui glanced at Wang Bin, then turned his head and said to Qin Jin with a solemn expression, “President Qin, there are definitely no ready-made explosives in the chemical factory now.”

“But there are some nitroglycerin, sulfuric acid, toluene, potassium nitrate, sulfur, methanol, ammonia, chlorine, etc. in the inventory. These can all be made into explosives, but the power varies.”

“I know some configurations and can mix liquid bombs. Of course, solid explosives are also no problem. The stability can also be selected and configured according to needs. These chemicals are all available in the factory now.”

“If the boss has any special requirements, I can also try to mix them. I should be able to make them.”

“If you want to take the materials away from here, I know where these things are placed. I can point the way later. When we go to the new place, we also need to set up a laboratory again, so I suggest moving some equipment as well.”

Qin Jin's spirits lifted!

Jackpot!

At this moment, the way he looked at Dong Hui was like seeing a naked beauty.

He must protect this person!

He is more important than most other people!

He silently decided in his heart that he must not let him leave the base unless it was absolutely necessary!

He must protect Dong Hui safely in the base and let him shine for the base!

Wang Bin, who was next to him, saw the excited look in Qin Jin's eyes and knew that the new boss had taken a fancy to Dong Hui's role.

He was worried that his colleague would steal the limelight, so he quickly showed off, rattling off all the major situations in the chemical factory, warehouse materials, production processes, and storage of items.

He seemed afraid that he would be too slow and Dong Hui would steal the limelight. Later, he even revealed Guo Qing's background, and was about to guess the color of her underwear when Zhong Yu quickly interrupted and asked him to continue talking about serious matters.

This also allowed Qin Jin to have a straight-line increase in his understanding of this place.

The gloom of returning empty-handed from An County Police Station at noon was swept away. He found that this chemical factory was no less rewarding than the city bureau he had swept yesterday!

He could make a lot of explosives!

They could even make gunpowder here. As long as they found the materials, they could even make guns and bullets in the base!

He had already bought two small lathes!

If it wasn't enough, he would continue to move a few better ones back from outside!

He had already bought the address with money, and he would definitely not miss the bullet-making method. It was just that the proficiency might be a little poor at the beginning. After the people in the base got started, would they still worry about not having enough bullets?

And all kinds of tactics in his mind, he was going to arm the entire base to the teeth!!!

At this moment, he felt a little relaxed.

He asked the two to continue to improve the relocation process for a while, which equipment needed to be moved first, and which chemicals had convenient storage in stock should also be prepared immediately. He would deal with some today, and arrange for others to come over tomorrow to continue.

Ring ring ring!!!

Just as the few people were busy, a piercing ringtone rang!!

Qin Jin suddenly raised his head, took out the walkie-talkie, and roared with a livid face, “Are you looking for death!? Who made the noise? Turn it off quickly! The zombies will be attracted over later!”

Dong Hui stood up next to him and shouted, “It's the sound of the fire alarm! Someone must have triggered the fire alarm! Judging from the sound, the entire factory area has been triggered!”

Qin Jin then asked, “How to turn it off! Think of a way!”

Wang Bin interjected beside him, sweating profusely, “Now there is a power outage. It is estimated that closing the main valve at the switchboard in the security room is useless. We need to manually reset each alarm!”

“It's over! There are several fire alarms in many buildings in the chemical factory. It will take a lot of time to turn them off. The zombies will be attracted over!”

Without any delay, Qin Jin quickly ordered into the walkie-talkie and to the people in front of him:

“Everyone, immediately lead Dong Hui and Wang Bin to find the fire alarms and find a way to turn them off. Send two people to block the gate for me!! Observe the movements of the zombies outside and be ready for battle at any time!!”

“Yes!!”

Everyone who received the order acted quickly.

Everyone knew that it was extremely dangerous at this time. The piercing alarm sound could penetrate an unknown distance and might attract zombies from afar!

“President Qin!! The team members escorting the woman below said that there is a situation. The woman just made an excuse to go to the bathroom, and then something happened not long after! Now people don't know where they are!”

Li Bowen's voice came from the walkie-talkie.

That woman!?

An unknown fire burst out from Qin Jin's heart, and the murderous intent almost materialized, and the walkie-talkie was pinched to the point of being瘪!

Bang!!

At this time, a huge crash sounded from outside!

Qin Jin flashed to the window in one step, and happened to see an off-road vehicle driving out of the chemical factory gate!

A fallen iron gate at the gate told the answer. Seeing that the off-road vehicle was about to leave after breaking through the gate!

“Damn it!!!”

Xiao, who usually maintained the best mentality, couldn't help but curse at this time.

Take out the walkie-talkie again, and roar with a ferocious face:

“Liu Qing! Immediately intercept the off-road vehicle that is driving in your direction! Try to keep me alive! If it doesn't work, kill me! You must not let her run away!!”

“Received!”

Thanks to the professional walkie-talkie specially prepared before the end of the world, the communication range is as long as several kilometers, and Xiao Liu, who is flying a kite in the distance, can still receive the signal from the walkie-talkie.

He immediately took action, abandoned the operation of the drone, let it hover in place to broadcast, and then drove towards the chemical factory!

The chemical factory is relatively remote, and there are not many roads out. This road is a must, and it should be able to intercept it!

Qin Jin, who was still in the office, continued to order:

“Quickly arrange for someone to drive down and block the gate! If the zombies surround it later, the wall is the first line of defense!”

Everyone acted quickly. Qin Jin, who had finished ordering, also took a few people out. Some were turning off the alarms, some were blocking the doors, and some were preparing weapons. Everyone was working hard for the zombies that might be coming soon!

“President Qin! Zombies have already appeared!”

Liu Wenhao's voice rang from the walkie-talkie.

“Prepare your weapons, you may need to use guns later! And how long will it take to turn off the ringtone!?” Qin Jin asked.

At this time, Li Bowen arranged for people to take Dong Hui and Wang Bin in batches, and tried to turn off the main valve of the security room to no avail, and were turning off the alarms one by one.

Wang Bin's voice rang from the walkie-talkie: “There are nine buildings in the chemical factory, and each building has 1-2 fire alarms. We only have six people, and it is expected that it will take at least five minutes to turn them all off!”

There were 16 combat team members who came out this time. Two were flying kites outside. There were 14 combat team members in the chemical factory. In addition to the 2 new recruits, 4 people were sent to help turn off the sound. At this time, there were 10 people defending the gate of the chemical factory plus Qin Jin!

“Send four more people to turn off the alarms, you must turn them off for me within three minutes!”

“Yes!”

Zhong Yu, who was next to Qin Jin, took the order and quickly led four people away from the team. There was no need for anyone to lead the way. The piercing sound told everyone where the sound source was.

At this time, dozens of zombies had already come outside the chemical factory!

Although the drone had attracted the zombies from the chemical factory before, there were also some other factories, buildings, and residential areas around here!

The piercing alarm bell, in this apocalyptic world of power outages, can be heard for at least a kilometer!

The earliest zombies attracted were already using their hands to pull at the trucks and trucks blocking the door.

There were also many zombies stretching out their hands and grabbing at the walls and fences next to them, wishing they could grab the combat team members in front of them to drink blood and eat meat!

“You can use a machete to block the walls!”

“Shoot directly at the head if it is not easy to attack! Attack their heads! Don't hold back! Wear helmets and be careful of blood splattering!”

Qin Jin shouted loudly, took a step forward with a long knife and pierced the head of a zombie stuck on the wall!

The other combat team members also took out their weapons and killed the zombies. Flesh and blood flew for a while!
