Chapter 74, Outpost

"Pop."

"Snapped."

Egger stood in the bed of the pickup truck. He leaned his upper body on the roof of the pickup truck and easily knocked down the three infected people walking on the road with three rapid-fire shots.

Through this period of hunting activities, Egger gradually mastered rapid shooting and dynamic shooting.

No way, wild animals are not as stupid as infected people. They are alert, timid, and sensitive, and will run away before you enter the most comfortable shooting state.

Now Egger does not need to hold his breath before shooting, and silently counts "3, 2, 1" in his mind. Now he can complete the process from aiming to firing in one go, and can quickly follow up on the fleeing prey.

Many rabbits died like this under Egg's gun.

Although Egger is not satisfied with the AR-7 in his hand, it is undeniable that the AR-7 has the advantages of lightness, accuracy, good directivity, and small recoil. What is even more rare is that it has sufficient bullets and extremely small gunshots.

.

I have to say that this gun is indeed a magical tool for cleaning up infected people.

Last time when Egger and his team went to the visitor center for rescue, they spent a lot of time and effort moving the corpses and carts. In the end, they found that they were of little use, so they walked back and forth on that road once, and they lost some blood.

After suffering a loss, the teammates refused to be fooled again and firmly refused to collect the corpses together.

So this time Iger chose to fight while walking, killing him without carrying him (throwing him off the road).

When encountering an infected person, Joanna didn't even need to slow down deliberately. She only needed to hold the steering wheel steady for a few seconds, and the infected person who appeared in front of the road was knocked down by Egger.

If we implement it all the way, the efficiency is very high.

The focus of this cleanup work is Jixi Town.

Jixi Town is a much larger residential area than Gospel Community. It is surrounded by highways in the southeast, northwest and directions. Except for one road that leads to Gospel Community and Fei Waterfall Scenic Area, the other three can reach larger cities.

At the same time, Jixi Town also has a highway entrance and exit station. During the peak tourist season, many tourist vehicles come and go every day.

Supported by the tourism industry, the economic situation of Jixi Town is relatively good. Its built-up area is divided into two parts by a small river. One side is a residential area with single-family courtyards, and the other side is a generally 3-4-story building.

Business district.

The permanent population of Jixi Town is about 300 people, but no one knows how many infected people there are in the town. Even Dean and Erica, who escaped from Jixi Town, have not been to the business district.

According to them, they have not seen anyone escaping from the business district.

According to Dean and Erica's descriptions, Iger could only predict the enemy with mercy. He estimated that the number of infected people in Jixi Town might be around 500, so he simply moved the ammunition boxes containing bullets into the pickup truck.

There are also 1,000 bullets.

Originally, Egger was not prepared to clean up Jixi Town in a day or two. He planned to spend about a week, attacking a little today and a little tomorrow, accumulating small victories into big victories.

Today, in addition to advancing the progress to the road bridge in Jixi Town, there is also another task to find a place that can be used as an outpost.

"squeak."

Joanna stopped the car, stuck her head out of the car window, pointed to a two-story masonry house on the road on the left and said, "What do you think of that house? I think it's pretty good."

It was a two-story white single-family house with a red brick wall with barbed wire outside. It looked fashionable and beautiful. What was even more rare was that there was a smooth cement road leading directly to its door from the highway.

It looks like a small villa belonging to a wealthy person.

This house is nice, but it seems too far away.

We had just turned around the three-way intersection and walked a kilometer or two at most. Setting up an outpost in such a central location would have no meaning of "on the spot". It would be better to walk a few more minutes and drive home directly.

"Keep going forward." Iger said to Joanna, "Maybe there is something better ahead."

"Okay." Joanna shrugged, and it was obvious that she was full of regret.

I didn't have the opportunity before, but now I can experience the life of a rich person, but...

Joanna drove forward with regret in her heart.

After walking for several kilometers while fighting like this, everyone saw a blue hut on the side of the road again.

This blue cabin is a pure wooden structure. It looks like it has been there for some time. The paint on the exterior wall has peeled off, and there is also a lot of plaque fungus growing on it.

The house is very small, about twenty square meters, with at most one room and one kitchen, maybe only one room.

There is no wall outside the house. Although there is a small glass window, the glass is covered with dust and the light in the house is too dark. When I stand in the car and look inside through the glass window, I can only see pitch black.

.

The overall feeling of this house is the same as that of a haunted house in a horror movie, making people feel uncomfortable at first sight.

"This house." Iger thought about it for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No."

This is not to say that Iger thinks the appearance of the cabin is not good or that he is worried that it will be too dirty inside. He just feels unsafe.

This small wooden house has no walls and no turnover space. Once four people are surrounded by infected people in the house, it will be a dead end.

After hearing about the incident at the police station, the first thing Iger learned was to try not to get himself into trouble.

"Keep going." Iger said to Joanna. Joanna happily put the car into gear and started. However, after she drove the car for two or three hundred meters and turned a big bend, Iger quickly called for a stop.

"Stop, stop." Iger patted the roof of the pickup truck and said.

"What's wrong?" Joanna turned around and asked after stopping the car.

"I found a good place to serve as an outpost. Look there." Egg pointed towards the roadside.

The three of them followed Egger's finger and looked over, only to see a huge roadside billboard.

That's it?

"Yes, that's the billboard!" Iger said excitedly. He patted the roof of the car and said to Joanna, "Drive the car over and have a look."

After Joanna drove the pickup truck under the billboard, the four people jumped out of the car.

This is a huge billboard. The single steel pillar under the billboard is so thick that it can only be carried by two people holding hands. There is an electric control box on the pillar, and on the back of the electric control box, there is an iron escalator.

Everyone walked under the ladder and looked up, and saw a closed door that could be flipped up.

There was a small lock hanging on the flip door. Andy turned back to the bed of the pickup truck and took out the crowbar.

Andy climbed up the iron ladder with a crowbar in hand. When he reached the top, he hooked the ladder with his legs, held the crowbar in both hands, and inserted the tip into the lock.

They say that strength works wonders. Ever since we got the crowbar, we have never used a key to open a lock.

"Snapped."

The lock is unlocked.

After Andy took off the lock, he opened the cover and stretched his head up to take a look. Then he lowered his head and shouted below: "Guys, come up and take a look. It's quite spacious here."
