Half an hour later, after everyone had eaten and drank enough, they packed up some necessary supplies and things, took Zhouhe's Wuling sacred car, and headed towards Bethel, Vermont.
Bethel, Vermont, is a base for human survivors that Anne heard on the radio. It is safe, has food, and has armed troops.
In the ending of the original play, where the male protagonist and the Night Stalker died together, the female protagonist Annie went to the human survival base in Vermont.
Vermont is connected to the northern part of New York State. If you start in the morning, you can arrive before the sun sets.
"Uncle, can you play some music? I want to listen." Ethan suddenly said.
With a loud "Bang!", the van knocked away an off-road vehicle blocking the road.
"What?" Zhou He couldn't understand what Ethan said.
"Ethan wants you to play music, he wants to listen." Robert translated.
"Music? Sorry, there is no music in my car." Zhou He said apologetically.
Immediately, Anne translated to the little boy Ethan, who heard the words but didn't say anything.
"The lost New York, the doomsday New York, this scenery is really rare to see."
Zhou He drove a van on a cross-sea bridge. The city that used to be extremely prosperous has become so desolate now.
"Huh?" Inadvertently, Zhou He glanced at the dashboard, and a yellow fuel gauge light came on.
"No, no gas?" Zhou He frowned suddenly.
I saw that the fuel gauge was almost bottoming out. With just a little fuel, I felt like I could only run a few dozen kilometers.
Vermont is still hundreds of kilometers away.
Zhou He forgot to refuel. He was really busy with too many things these days and didn't notice that the fuel gauge was about to bottom out.
In addition, he often slams on the accelerator in first gear. Although the van will never wear out, this will increase fuel consumption.
It's not surprising that the fuel tank is bottomed out.
"Out of gas?" Robert asked.
"Well, I didn't notice it for a moment, um... do you know where I can get oil here?" Zhou He asked.
"Well... I collected gasoline at the place where I live, but... we have been away for nearly an hour and a half, and have traveled at least almost 80 kilometers. Can the remaining gas be returned?" Robert said.
.
As for how far he could run after the fuel gauge light came on, Zhou He naturally knew that it was roughly 30-50 kilometers, and it was obviously impossible to run back.
"But we can pump gasoline out of the tanks of these cars," Robert said.
"Okay." Zhou He immediately braked and stopped next to a Cadillac.
However, before Zhou He could turn off the engine, Robert said: "This car doesn't work. We need to find an older car."
"Uh...why not?" Zhou He asked puzzledly.
"In recent years before the apocalypse, new vehicles on the market had anti-theft nets to prevent gasoline from being stolen. Although I could also drain the oil, it would waste a lot of time."
"So, look for an older car. No, the 2005 Santana in front should not have an anti-theft net." Robert said, pointing to the Santana in front of him that crashed into the bridge pier.
"Yeah." Immediately, Zhou He drove the vehicle to the side of Santana. The two fuel tanks were not far apart.
Immediately, everyone got out of the car. Robert took out a hose and a bucket from a backpack in the trunk. He first went to the cab and pulled out Santana's car key, and then walked to the edge of the fuel tank.
Use the car key to open Santana's fuel tank cap, stuff the hose all the way down, and then take a deep breath.
After a few operations, the gasoline flowed out of the hose and fell into the bucket.
"This oil is so turbid, can it still be used?" Zhou He looked at the old gasoline and felt a little unreliable.
"Although the gasoline is a little turbid, the tank is well sealed and can still be used," Robert said with a smile.
"Huh? Why is it so small? Are you out of gas?" Annie said suddenly.
Just as a few people were talking, the hose stopped producing oil.
"This car probably doesn't have much fuel. Find another car." Zhou He said.
Afterwards, it took the three of them half a day to fill up the van's gas tank.
When everything was ready, Zhou He started the vehicle again and headed towards the destination.
In the blink of an eye, more than six hours passed.
The sun is still very bright and it will take at least another hour or two to set.
"Look, there is a wall ahead." At this moment, Anne pointed ahead and exclaimed.
"It seems that we have arrived." Zhou He breathed a sigh of relief.
He had been driving for more than seven hours and was already very tired.
Zhou He still wanted Robert and Annie to drive, but after thinking about it, he decided not to do it.
At the end of the road, there was a huge iron gate standing there. On both sides of the iron gate, there were walls that were seven or eight meters high and could not be seen to the end.
The vehicle slowly stopped at the door, and Robert and the other three couldn't wait to get out of the car, looking at the survivor base in front of them with horrified faces.
The next second, the large iron door slowly opened, and two soldiers holding weapons stood aside.
Further away, a large number of survivors also discovered that new survivors had arrived, and they gathered towards the door one after another.
"It's true. I didn't expect it to be true on the radio." Anne couldn't restrain her excitement on her face.
"There really is a survivor base, there really is." Robert's hands were shaking at this moment, and tears were already welling up in his eyes.
The three of them staggered and walked slowly into the base.
[Congratulations! Your order has been completed, and you will be rewarded with a lucky draw.]
Zhou He heard the APP prompts, a smile appeared on his face, and then he drove into the base.
He could actually leave directly, but he still had the antidote information, supplies, and some small equipment that Robert brought with him in the car.
As soon as Zhou He got out of the car, many people gathered around him, and some even wanted to hug Zhou He.
"Robert, take down your things, Robert? Robert?" Zhou He shouted a few times, but found that Robert was talking excitedly to a guy who seemed to be the leader of the base.
He still held the tube of Night Demon's blood in his hand.
Zhou He shouted several times, but he didn't hear him. Instead, the base leader's face became extremely serious, and he led Robert away towards the distance.
Zhou He glanced at Annie and found that she was hugging each other with a large group of people, and Zhou He didn't care at all.
"Okay, I'll unload it myself." Zhou He sighed, pushed away those who came around, opened the trunk, and started unloading the goods.
The people at the base seemed to be very curious about Zhou He, an Asian. They just stood aside and watched Zhou He unloading goods, and no one came to help.
