It is now 8 o'clock in the morning, the sun has risen outside, and the sky is bright enough.
Yang Ming found that the company's location was relatively high, with a long flight of stairs in front of him, so he could have a better view of the city.
How should I put it? At first glance, there seems to be nothing wrong with it, but the details cannot stand up to scrutiny. There are indeed some stains on many buildings, which can be regarded as traces of fighting.
Generally speaking, it is dominated by low-rise private houses. From time to time, you can see high-rise buildings in different directions. The city is not very prosperous.
Although we are at a relatively high place now, we can't see much, so let's explore further.
Yang Ming still leads the team's course of action now. After all, Lesia's situation is still unclear, so it's best not to let her go out alone.
As for Carters, according to Yang Ming's impression, she should be good at melee combat, and not suitable for dealing with zombies.
But now Carters carries a lot of bottles and cans with her, which seem to be some chemical reagents. Yang Ming has not seen her fighting posture for a long time. Maybe she can attack by throwing medicine bottles.
No matter what, it's better to act together.
As everyone walked down the stairs, there were rows of residential areas on the side. They were basically independent houses. There were many alleys and alleys, so be extra careful.
It would be better to walk along the road first. Yang Ming maximized his field of vision and was always on guard against the nooks and crannies around him in case something suddenly appeared.
Overall it was pretty quiet, and I didn't see any wandering creatures on the road.
The habits of zombies are still unclear, maybe they are nocturnal.
Of course, there is actually another saying that if the people in this city have basically been infected, then after twenty days, many people will probably have died of starvation.
After all, energy must be conserved no matter what. Without food, even zombies will die quickly.
This is why the city can be sealed off directly. It won't take long for all the large creatures inside the city to starve to death.
Considering the characteristics of androids, even if they die, their souls will be recycled and wait for resurrection again, so it is entirely possible for the emperor to do this, and she probably won't care.
After Yang Ming walked on the street for a while, he felt that there was no need to be too cautious, so he took out his electric car.
After everyone was seated, Yang Ming closed the cover of the originally open electric car. He might accidentally hit something later, so it was better to take precautions.
After preparations were completed, the car was started and started speeding on the road.
Except for the occasional blood stains, there are no other obstacles on the road. Since there are no other vehicles, it looks very wide and you can drive at will.
First, follow the map and circle around the periphery of the city, gradually going deeper into the center so that Theia can survey the map more accurately.
However, the range she can scan is currently limited, so she can only draw a map with many details missing.
When the speed increased, Yang Ming could finally see scattered figures standing in some buildings.
They would look up at the movement of Yang Ming's electric car as he passed by, but their reaction was very slow and they would not make any movements other than looking.
It can be inferred that they, at least during the day when the sun is shining brightly, should not be too active.
The morning drive around the city was easy and there were no problems. At noon, Yang Ming felt like finding a place to stop and rest and charge for a while. The charging efficiency in the city could be said to be extremely low.
You need to think carefully about where to stop. You must be able to spot zombies or other creatures at the fastest speed and the furthest distance.
In the end, Yang Ming chose to stop in an open-air park, which was surrounded by flat open spaces and had a good view.
I don’t have to be particular about lunch, I just eat compressed food in the car. Since electric cars now have roofs to shade the sun, in theory it’s okay to take a short rest, but it’s best to take turns to sleep well.
After some discussion, I decided to give up taking a nap. I had never developed this habit in the first place. It was only my first day in this city. I had enough rest during the rush and I was not particularly tired.
Considering that it was best to find a shelter before night fell, Yang Ming drove back to start the afternoon exploration after eating and relaxing a little.
The sun in the afternoon is stronger, and there are fewer zombies to see. Unless the door to your home is open, you can see the living creatures in the shadows from a distance.
It seems that sunlight may actually have a certain degree of impact on zombies, making them afraid to come out.
According to this calculation, there is a high probability that zombies will be active at night. In the afternoon, we will focus on finding the base first and don't rush to draw a city map.
Theia recalculated a path and asked Yang Ming to follow the prompts.
Now it is closer to the business district, where you can see many buildings with storefronts, and it is also closer to the city center.
You can see many buildings, and there are also villas specially provided for the rich to live in.
These villas are indeed relatively sturdier, but their styles are different. They were built according to the subjective wishes of the original owners, and they may just be unique and suitable for hiding places.
Theia asked Yang Ming to walk around the area, compare the differences between different houses, and finally came up with an optimal plan.
When we arrived at the location she designated, it was already four in the afternoon and time was running out.
We can only get off the car first and enter the building to explore.
Although the house in front of you is of villa size, you can definitely see something unusual about it.
First of all, there is a clear distance between the house and its surroundings, as if it is isolated, and you can clearly see the ground scenes in all directions.
Secondly, the walls of the villa are high and solid. There are some iron windows dug just enough to allow the head to see the outside. Unlike many places that like to use low walls and fences for a more beautiful appearance.
Finally, the entire building has only one main door and no other small doors or back doors.
It looks perfect from the outside. The next step is to enter the building.
In addition to the themed villas, there is also a courtyard, which is very clean and planted with some flowers and plants.
The design of the building itself is also relatively conservative. There is only one front door and one back door. There are no fancy large-area glass decorations. Except for walking in through the door, the other windows are easy to seal.
Now comes the most critical part, which is to rule out whether there is any danger in the house.
Yang Ming did not break the door violently this time, and asked Theia to use nanomachines to invade the keyhole, forcefully shut down the electronic system and pry open the lock.
This allows Theia to directly control the opening and closing of the door, which is convenient after all.
Yang Ming gently opened the door. The lighting inside was pretty good, and the current sun could still illuminate the interior.
However, Yang Ming still tried to press the button next to the door, and the light was on, indicating that the power system was still functioning.
