Apocalypse: The Stronghold System

Chapter 026: Taking the Money and Going

Maneuvering on a road full of zombies was quite troublesome, even though they were going through a more deserted road, but all the ruins of the buildings, the overturned and burnt cars covered most of the road.

Fan Chen who was sitting in the passenger seat did not shut up and kept working. His hands twitched in the air, but through the Smart Glasses, he looked at the Wind Protection City through the viewpoint of the drones flying in the sky. "Fu Shen, I've already sent you information about the traffic. Just need to follow the directions to get to the bank."

Fu Shen who originally wanted to turn left, suddenly took a detour to the right. Although it is further away, but it is safer because there are fewer zombies than the initial path you want to take.

Ming Xuan opened her mouth, then swallowed back her words. He wanted to ask about the device he was wearing, but he knew this was not the place to ask. Yet he knew, the device that the two people in front of him used did not exist in this age.

Even before the First Disaster there were similar devices, but they shouldn't be this sophisticated. Even though Ming Xuan had never worn it, he knew the device before the First Disaster made its user dizzy when used for too long, and the AR device had such a delay that it was not suitable for driving.

"After this turn there are zombies, although not many, but they block the way." Fan Chen lowered his head and stretched out his hand as if picking up something, then he stood up and there was already a rocket-propelled grenade in his hand.

Fan Chen opened the top cover, directing the RPG forward. Right now he had to be careful so that when the car suddenly turned, he was not thrown out.

"Captain!"

"Ready!" Fan Chen restrained his body from losing balance by using his left hand to hold on to the iron binding the rocket-propelled grenade.

Fu Shen slammed the steering wheel and turned sharply, resulting in the car swaying slightly.

Fan Chen who stood up, despite already holding his body, was still unable to hold on. His waist hit the iron, and it was very painful, yet he had to endure it because in front there was an urgent matter.

Fan Chen pulled the trigger, made the rocket-propelled grenade active, released the grenade that flew with the tail that emitted smoke and there was a shrill thunder-like sound.

Boom up!

When the grenade ammunition hit the cars in front, a loud explosion with fire lit up. The damaged car crashed into two different directions, and the parade of zombies blocking it shattered into ground meat.

Then Fan Chen kept it and went back down, wearing a seatbelt to get ready for the impact.

Conquest Knight XV was speeding away even though in front of him was a fire that lit up like a wall. The car broke through the fire, then there was a slight impact because there was a carcass in front that was blocked by the fire.

With Fu Shen's ability, he was able to control the car easily even though he had initially lost a bit of control.

The car continues on, and after a long struggle, turns and splits a sea of deadly zombies. They finally arrived in front of the bank. The zombies here are quite dense, probably because many humans are of the same desire, taking the money in the safe, but in the end being surrounded by zombies and becoming one of them.

Fan Chen was unlike earlier, all of the rocket-propelled grenades above had already been replenished, so he only needed to press a button to launch the attack.

The rocket-propelled grenade shot towards the zombie herd which formed a dense barrier.

Explosions after explosions were created, raking off the zombies and engorging them with burning flames. The fire was very high, and the smoke from the burning could be seen from every corner of the city.

"Bestroos!"

Fu Shen stepped on the gas pedal harder, making the car go faster. The car shot across the sea of fire, then the car felt a little flying because it hit the stone stairs, then there was broken glass with a slight impact.

The car maneuvered within the lobby of the building, darting past the pillars and crashing into every zombie that stood in the way.

Fan Chen also smashed the blocking wall because the wooden door was too small, and he finally saw a large safe made of bulletproof steel.

"Fu Shen, I'll open the door later, try to get closer, but don't get me stuck."

Fan Chen removed the seat belt, and got ready by unlocking the door.

The car drove faster in a room that was not too big, then Fu Shen slammed the steering wheel sharply to the left.

Fan Chen opened the door and stood up as the car continued to move. The sound of a tire squealing due to its speed, and the inertial force of the sudden turn, the car still drove in the same direction despite turning the steering wheel.

Fan Chen reached out his right hand to reach for the safe, and when his finger managed to touch the safe, he shouted, "Reverse!'

Fu Shen turned the steering wheel faster, then set the gears of the car and stepped on the gas pedal.

The car sped up fast, hitting the zombies that were lured away by the explosion. But they did not go out through the first road, but through the wall without a door.

Whoooooooshes! Boom up!

The rocket-propelled grenade crashed into the wall, smashing it into rubble and forming a large hole for an exit.

Ming Xuan who saw this operation, was astonished with her eyes wide open, and her mouth could be entered by a whole egg. The big safe had disappeared, even though he had only seen it for a brief glance, he was absolutely certain that the safe had indeed disappeared. Then he saw Fu Shen, the driving ability of this huge car, was incredible.

Even if a military car like this has assistance so the steering wheel feels light, but it is still amazing to control it as well as this.

Fan Chen leaned back in the passenger seat, he was breathing heavily with cold sweat splashing across his face. It was very risky, if he was a little late to keep the safe, then it is certain that he will be squeezed.

Fan Chen took a deep breath and said, "The north gate is broken, go to the west gate, then we go away and turn north. We should go back as soon as possible, and rest at night."

Fu Shen did not say anything, he just followed the directions corresponding to the real circumstances where the zombies were fewer.

It would take at least a full half hour to arrive at the west gate, this was too slow from normal time.

When the car passed through the exit gate, a wave of zombies ran out, chasing the car ferociously.

Fan Chen smiled faintly as he looked at the zombies that were chasing him. There was no fear, but rather pride and he saw all those zombies as if looking at money. "Now, it's time for the explosion."

Fan Chen pressed a button like Emergency Stop, then heard the sound of an engine coming from under the car, followed by a loud gunshot.

Looking through the screen that connected the side camera of the car, Fan Chen saw that there were hundreds of flat iron the size of a palm that kept firing.

The flat iron landed on the ground stably, then there was a flickering red light amidst the iron.

Fan Chen raised his hand, and said excitedly: "Time for all of you to die! The explosion! Coming!"

Boom up! Boom up! Boom up!

A loud explosion came from behind them, the explosion came from the middle, then spread to the side. The explosion caused an incredible flame, exceeding the boundary of the city wall, the ground surged like a volcano spewing out magma.

The ground trembled like an earthquake, even those tremors could be felt all the way to the car.

Fan Chen smiled widely, unable to hide his happiness when he got a lot of Coin©. When he returned home later, he could purchase the ★ Evolution Fluid for Yun Mingyue and Fan Xiaoyu.

Then the money was plentiful, he could purchase resources and upgrade the Refuge to Level 04. But that was after all the slots had been used, and after he bought the air vehicle.

Now, with the Second Disaster coming, traveling by road was too slow. Although through the air route is very risky, but for the sake of more efficient, it is acceptable even though dangerous.

Fan Chen took out a tool like a tape recorder and pressed a button there.

“Mother, Yu'er, I'm done here. At the latest it will be back tomorrow afternoon.”

It was the message he sent to Mingyue Defense.
