Rebirth In The Apocalypse: Start By Building The Strongest Base

A few days later.

The date arrived at October 28th.

More than half a month had passed since the apocalypse began.

Early morning.

The temperature had dropped to only about ten degrees Celsius.

Just like in his past memories, the cold this year had arrived exceptionally early.

It wasn't even November yet.

Many places in the north were already below zero degrees, and even the northernmost areas had begun to experience heavy snowfall.

Even the south had rapidly plummeted to the low temperatures that were usually only seen during the coldest periods of the year.

Qin Jin was in the gym of the office building.

He had just finished a set of high-intensity exercises.

After half a month of training, he felt that his body's "progress" had passed the stage of rapid growth.

It had slowed down now, and although he could still feel himself getting stronger every day, it had noticeably weakened in the past two days.

Now he could lift 230kg with one arm for a short period!

The strength of both hands had reached an astonishing 900kg!!

Exceeding the limits of some power evolvers he knew in his previous life.

It should be known that this was normal strength, and the power of a momentary burst would only be more terrifying!

The feeling of getting stronger every day these days had deeply intoxicated him.

He could now be fully called a "super soldier."

Of course, it was still incomparable to the extraordinary humans who could fly and escape into the earth.

It could only be said that he was still within the scope of understanding.

At most, he could overturn a car with all his strength, run and jump to the height of two floors, and kill a cow with one punch.

That was all.

With such strong power, his figure had also changed accordingly.

For example, he, who had just finished exercising.

Visibly explosive muscles filled the entire set of quick-drying clothes, and his abdominal muscles, shark lines, and broad back muscles were extremely developed, as well as his thick thighs.

All of which declared that he was not to be trifled with.

This was only in terms of strength, and other nerve reflexes had also been greatly strengthened, allowing him to see the rapid movement of objects for a longer period of time.

Although it was still far from the legendary bullet-time ability, it should not be underestimated.

He hadn't tested yet whether he could see the blurred trajectory of bullets, but it wouldn't be too late to test it when he had time.

His other senses of sight, hearing, and smell had also become more powerful and sensitive.

Even if he hadn't reached the level of those evolvers in his previous life, he wasn't far behind.

It could be said that he had evolved and become stronger in all aspects!

When he didn't go out, he liked to wear looser shirts, and not many people could discover that his seemingly slender figure contained such terrifying power!

He had recently measured his height and it had actually increased by a few centimeters!

His weight had reached a terrifying 103kg!

Normally, people would only think that his appearance was around 75-85kg.

There was no doubt that the bone density and muscle density in his body must have increased.

Otherwise, it would not be able to support the reaction force of his full-strength punches.

The ease with which he hit the sandbag usually illustrated this fact.

After saying so many benefits, of course, there were also disadvantages.

For example, his appetite had increased greatly recently, and he had to eat the amount of food for several people in one meal. It had only gotten slightly better in the past two days after his body's enhancement slowed down.

But he still needed about two people's worth of food.

If he wasn't the leader of a faction, he wouldn't be able to support such a powerful body like in his previous life.

Fortunately, the strength enhancement wasn't too exaggerated, and there was no situation where he would bend steel or burst his clothes with a little force.

Also, during this period, he felt that his body's energy was a little too vigorous, as if there was inexhaustible energy flowing.

Without a girlfriend, he would come to the gym for a workout every morning and evening when he had time to feel better.

For this reason, he also broke a sandbag, so he had to ask the combat team to help move some suitable fitness equipment back when they went out.

Standing in front of the gym window.

Having finished his workout, he pushed open one of the windows.

A gust of low-temperature air blew in.

While others would feel cold, he only felt a burst of refreshment.

There was even a faint wisp of smoke rising from his body.

He looked at the base in front of him and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

A sense of satisfaction arose spontaneously.

The base had now initially entered the right track, everyone had found their place and knew what to do in the new world.

In Green Source Base, everyone had basically adapted to the new life. The combat team occasionally took some people out to search for supplies, and cars full of things were transported back to the base every day, constantly filling multiple warehouses.

The walls had already completely achieved the initial goal a few days ago.

Finally reaching a height of twelve and a half meters! (Some barbed wire was also installed on top)

Looking from a distance, you could see a majestic building like a long dragon standing tall.

That height of four stories gave everyone in the base a strong sense of security.

No one believed that zombies could break through this defense.

Except for Qin Jin, who was still not satisfied.

After the walls were repaired.

The internal personnel did not become idle because of this, and immediately turned to the construction of other projects.

In the isolation area inside the base gate, the original wire mesh fence had been removed and replaced with a five-meter-high wall.

Due to the small area, it had basically been completed in just a few days today.

Now this isolation area could become a barbican.

Covering an area of more than 300 square meters, a simple iron sheet house was also built inside to facilitate the rest of the returning personnel when they were isolated.

Some shooting positions were also set up on the walls of this isolation area.

Once the defenders found something wrong, they could immediately kill the people or zombies inside.

Then, warehouses were continued to be built in the base.

Because in the past peaceful era, various fire protection and other approvals had to be considered, and construction could not be carried out entirely according to personal preferences.

Now it was different.

In the absence of regulations, of course, it was as convenient as possible, only seeking speed and sturdiness.

The two underground floors were mainly used for the storage of some important items, and some less important or dangerous chemicals obviously could not occupy such important space at will.

It should be known that the underground space was fully waterproofed and moisture-proof during the initial construction, so it was now mainly used to store food and weapons, as well as some materials with high environmental requirements.

Such as medicines and some foods with a short shelf life.

There were not so many requirements for the ground space, and iron sheet warehouses and cement warehouses began to be built.

There was no need to worry about not being able to fill them in the future.

According to the frequency of the combat team going out every day, as long as they dared to build warehouses, the combat team would dare to fill them!

Fully embodying the joy of zero-dollar purchases.

The nearby chemical plant had already moved everything that could be moved.

Now the chemical materials piled up in the base were enough for them to produce many tons of explosives and various pesticides and other chemical products. If they were not enough in the future, they could go to other places to find them.

The warehouses and buildings built before the apocalypse had been basically filled.

It should be known that these warehouse buildings were empty at that time.

Now that they were filled, the number of materials inside was terrifying!

That was why new warehouses continued to be built.

Now there were hundreds of vehicles alone, and many newly found ones could only be parked outside the base.

If the warehouses were not built before the acid rain came, they could only be covered with waterproof tarpaulins first, protecting as much as possible.

The machine tools that could be moved back from the outside were also not treated politely. A lot of them had been brought back and placed in the warehouse during this period, which would be of great use in the future.

The drainage system in the base was also checked and strengthened again, and the two large and small ponds had to be confirmed to be okay. No matter how heavy the acid rain was, there could be no loss.

In the future, this water resource would be the guarantee for drinking and planting.

Fortunately, the iron sheet roof was added before enduring the pressure, and operating after the apocalypse would be twice as difficult.

Even the soil for planting was not spared.

In the past two days, people had been sent out to dig a lot of fertile field soil and pile it in the ground planting garden and the planting area on the first floor underground.

In the future, when acid rain erodes the earth and the land is not suitable for planting, their base will at least not have to worry about this.

He hadn't been idle during this time either.

He had initially started to arrange some preparations that needed to be made for the acid rain disaster in advance.

Then there was the preparation for the cold disaster this winter.

Every winter after the apocalypse was a test.

Even in the south, you could experience the biting cold of ice and snow.

So starting today, he had asked the manager to arrange for people to install heating equipment in each residence - fireplaces and coal stoves.

Rooms with exhaust conditions were generally occupied by people of higher status.

A small fireplace could be simply built.

Ordinary rooms without conditions could also make a fire-roasting stove with cement bricks.

Qin Jin didn't care about other people's opinions, he only needed to issue the order, and someone would naturally carry it out.

This was the benefit of being a unique leader who said one thing and meant it.

No one would compete with him for power and interrupt his deployment.

The population of Green Source Base was now around ninety people.

After a group of people who caused trouble some time ago were killed, a few new people were successively taken in, such as Gao Qiang and the Sun brothers.

It is worth mentioning that the Sun brothers have recently joined the combat team.

With their skills as soldiers, it would be a waste not to go to the combat team.

Now the number of combat team members has reached 30, nearly one-third of the base's population.

Then there were the base's defenders, also maintained at around 30 people, divided into three groups, rotating on duty in three shifts every day.

To maintain such a large base, a group of ten people was already considered very tight.

Qin Jin's uncle Qin Guoqiang, uncle-in-law Luo Xiaojun, and Zhong Yu's father Zhong Jianguo were all the leaders of the three defense personnel groups.

Monitoring, gates, and four哨所.

These were all places where someone had to be present at all times to ensure safety and timely response.

The remaining people on duty would patrol the base in batches and check different areas for safety hazards such as water, electricity, and warehouses.

Nothing would happen if nothing happened.

Once something happened, those who were found to have neglected their duties would face the punishment of being expelled from the base.

The defenders who were not on duty could also be construction workers, electricians, and porters at the same time.

And occasionally participate in assisting combat team members to go out and move some large supermarkets, large factories, or warehouses that have been cleared and are safe.

On the surface, the busiest and most tired people could be said to be the defense team members.

But compared to the combat team, it was still a little worse.

Because the combat team had to face more dangerous outdoor work every day, and an accident could mean death.

Some combat team members were occasionally injured these days, only because the equipment was good and the combat plan was well-made that they were not directly injured by zombies, resulting in a reduction in personnel.

Qin Jin also personally visited the injured team members several times.

Reviewing the process with them and how to reduce or avoid this situation in the future.

The combat team has also rapidly adapted to the new rhythm during this period, and everyone in it has killed many zombies.

It was not a big problem for each person to face 1-2 zombies alone.

In the case of occupying a favorable terrain, they can even use weapons to kill ten or eight zombies.

It can be said that the combat effectiveness is very different now!

Correspondingly, the food and accommodation conditions of the combat team were also the best, followed by the defense team members and some managers, and then the ordinary members of the base.

No one dared to say anything at the moment.

Because this was all exchanged for life and courage!

If you want it, join the combat team and face the zombies.

Or join the defense team, and occasionally go out to move supplies, or go out of the base to clear occasionally appearing zombies.

And occasionally have to move corpses and other uncomfortable work.

Even some of Qin Jin's relatives.

Except for some people in important positions who could enjoy certain benefits.

Those who did not hold positions were treated the same as ordinary members.

Of course, this was mainly the voluntary intention of several relatives.

Like Qin Jin's grandmother who was old, he originally thought that she could do nothing and just take care of her old age.

But she couldn't stand her grandmother's insistence on working.

Even if she just went to the back kitchen to help pick vegetables and cook, she was willing.

And the cousin Qin Siling, aunt, aunt, and cousin all had no positions. During this period, they mainly helped repair the walls, or occasionally helped the back kitchen or sorted out supplies at night.

Except for living better than ordinary members, other benefits were the same.

Qin Jin also let them do it.

Three managers were responsible for the management of ordinary members.

Qin's father was responsible for weapons and overall management.

Qin's mother was responsible for the management of food.

Cousin Luo Dandan assisted in statistics on the incoming goods every day.

The eldest uncle managed the internal medical situation of the base.

And Dong Hui was appointed as the manager of the chemical department, with Wang Bin as his assistant, to handle the production and storage of explosives and other weapons and chemicals in the base.

This Dong Hui was indeed a talent. In addition to being able to manufacture explosives, he could actually manufacture various other chemical products.

Such as insecticides, disinfectants, detergents, lubricants, and countless other products.

He was indeed a talent who used to be the technical director of a factory.

It is worth mentioning that Qin Jin has also created a planting department in the past two days.

Prepare to use it for food planting and research in the future, and also engage in some livestock breeding.

Don't forget.

In peacetime.

His food factory had hired an agricultural planting team and kept them.

Among them was a professor-level figure from Yangcheng Agricultural University - Yuan Mu.

At the opening ceremony of the mutant night that night, he repeatedly asked to be sure to invite this person to participate.

Fortunately, the other party also appreciated it.

Perhaps it was because he had been nominally employed at Green Source Food Factory for the past few months, receiving a salary, that he was sent to such a remote place.

At this point, Yuan Mu had become the de facto manager of the Green Source base's planting department.

Of course, if he dared to do anything inappropriate, his position as a minor leader would come to an end.

After enduring more than half a month of reality checks, Yuan Mu realized that the world had changed.

Just being able to survive was a blessing, and being able to continue shining in the industry he had dedicated half his life to was not bad.

So, he happily accepted the order, leading the remaining two students to manage the ground planting garden and the preparation work for the underground planting area.

Here, it should be mentioned that he originally had another student who came to participate in the opening ceremony.

It was that "Little Zhou" classmate who mutated the earliest.

Unfortunately, he became the first to die.

For the time being, the planting of staple food crops has not yet begun.

First, the planting and management of melons, fruits, and vegetables is being carried out.

When there are not enough people in the future, Qin Jin has promised to arrange more people to help him.

There are some chickens, ducks, geese, cats, dogs, pigs, cattle, sheep, and even rabbits and bamboo rats (many bamboos were planted as greenery when some green areas of the base were built) in the base.

Many died after being ravaged by the night of mutation.

Now only half of them are left.

But as long as they are well-raised, it will still be possible to eat fresh meat occasionally in the future.

The fish in the two reservoirs are also managed by Gao Qiang, who was rescued from the outside.

Every day after returning from searching for supplies, or early in the morning, Gao Qiang can often be seen busily feeding the fish.

The entire base is thriving, and Qin Jin sees everything in his eyes.

It already has the prototype of the ideal paradise in his mind.

He hopes to continue to maintain it in the future.

And even get better.

Hopefully.
