474 Going Alone

The power armor was designed with logistical support issues fully considered. It is completely feasible to charge the armor battery with 220 volt civilian electricity. However, the efficiency of emergency charging equipment is weaker than that of a dedicated charger. It takes at least two hours to fully charge the armor battery.

.

After working for a long time, Ye Han's belly was growling with hunger. He dug out the emergency food in his backpack and took a bite of compressed biscuits. Before he started chewing, the dry compressed biscuits filled his mouth with saliva.

After absorbing the light, it feels like your mouth is filled with dry sawdust.

He soaked the biscuits with his saliva little by little until the biscuits melted into paste before swallowing them.

Eating this stuff requires not only good teeth, but also enough patience.

While eating, Ye Han took out the spare ammunition from his backpack and pressed it into the magazine one by one.

When I was fighting the giant insect, I didn't have time to pick up the empty magazine. Now, no matter whether it was a pistol or a rifle, only the magazine on the gun was left.

He had a gun and ammunition but not enough magazines, which gave him a big headache.

The magazine of the armored rifle is special. Only the sports equipment academy has reserves. Suitable accessories cannot be found locally. The luthier who is rushing to Shayuan must have brought enough spare equipment, but water from afar cannot quench his thirst for nearness. Before joining the luthier

, he only has this magazine in his hand and must use it with caution.

After sorting out the equipment, Ye Han went to the window and carefully observed the situation outside.

The insect swarm was still moving towards the chemical plant, and no giant insect paid attention to the broken glass window.

Ye Han put his uneasy heart back in his stomach and went into the kitchen to look around. He didn't find any food or running water, so he could only continue chewing compressed biscuits.

It still took a long time to charge, so he simply got into the master's bedroom, closed the door tightly, threw himself on the bed and fell asleep.

When he opened his eyes again, the sun was setting. Ye Han got up from the comfortable bed, rubbed his face vigorously to wake himself up, walked out of the bedroom and took a look, and found that the indicator light on the charger had gone out.

He put the extra things into his backpack, got into the power armor and started the donning process. The armor on his body was locked one by one, but the battery only had 60% power.

It turns out that the charging indicator light went out not because charging was completed, but because there was no power to charge!

Ye Han couldn't help but lament his bad luck. The battery must not be fully charged, otherwise he wouldn't be able to charge even an armor battery.

Stepping closer to the window, Ye Han looked down. The street that was originally full of giant insects had now become deserted. There were not even half a living giant insect in sight. Only the corpses of giant insects and humans were parked on the street.

He glanced in the direction of the chemical plant, but couldn't see anything because of the obstruction of the building.

Ye Han decided to understand the situation outside first, and then decide on the next course of action. He turned on the radio and shouted: "Fifth Company, please answer if you hear me... Jian Yushu, do you hear me?"

Ye Han couldn't help but feel his heart sinking after shouting several times in succession. Ye Han switched the command frequency and shouted: "Thunder call command..."

"Ye Han, where did you go?" A familiar voice came from the communication.

"Musician?" Ye Han was overjoyed, "Have you arrived at Shayuan?"

"We just arrived, why are you still at the chemical plant?" Bian Ge asked in surprise.

He established contact with the Shayuan headquarters on the plane when he arrived, had a comprehensive understanding of the situation in Shayuan, and focused on Ye Han's safety.

However, there was no news after Ye Han turned off the armor. It was not until he put on the armor again that the satellite re-captured the positioning signal sent by the armor.

"The electricity is out, so I found a place to charge it." Ye Han said, "How is the chemical plant doing?"

"The party has ended long ago, and the insect swarm has spread again and is expected to approach the airport again in half an hour," Bian Ge said.

"How's the fifth company doing?"

"You mean those people in the chemical plant, right? I heard that none of them escaped. I have to ask the garrison for details."

Ye Han felt a little sad in his heart: "I know, what's the next plan?"

"The airport cannot be defended anymore," Bian Ge said. "The garrison is organizing the transfer of personnel and materials. You'd better come back as soon as possible."

"Understood, let's go now!" Ye Han jumped out of the window and ran quickly to the airport in the setting sun.

Half an hour is enough for Ye Han to run a straight distance of seven kilometers, but running is one of the most battery-consuming forms of exercise. With the little battery he managed to charge, he probably wouldn't be able to run back to the airport.

We have to find a means of transportation, but we can only see abandoned motor vehicles within sight, and they are not abandoned for a day or two - this is the consequence of the tight supply of refined oil.

Not only civilian motor vehicles, but also electric vehicles have been out of supply due to power shortages. Bicycles, which have faded out of the sight of Chinese people, have recently become the first choice for public travel again.

Ye Han glanced around and saw at least a dozen bicycles standing or upside down. He picked the strongest-looking one and lifted it up. He stepped on the seat with one leg, and the full wheels were immediately crushed. Even Ye Han

It felt like it might explode at any time.

Fortunately, the most tragic situation did not happen. Ye Han carefully rode his bicycle on the road. After riding for about one kilometer, he switched to an electric bike that could be ridden.

A rideable electric bike is always sturdier than an ordinary bike, right? At least the wheels are not in danger of blowing out at any time, but it’s just that it takes too much effort to ride, so it must be criticized.

Ye Han, who was pedaling hard and slowly, thought so.

More than ten minutes later, Ye Han finally arrived only two kilometers away from the airport. The giant insect that had disappeared all the way came into his sight again, and the gunshots coming from the direction of the airport could be clearly heard.

"Captain Bian, how is the situation at the airport?" Ye Han asked eagerly.

"We are blocking the giant insect and buying time to transfer supplies. Where have you been?"

"He'll be there soon." Ye Han said.

"Hurry up, the troops may retreat at any time."

"Understood!" Ye Han wanted to give up the electric car and walk the last two kilometers, but the situation waited for no one, and he had to rush to the airport as soon as possible.

After riding for another few hundred meters, although the giant insects nearby had not noticed Ye Han, insect corpses and vehicle debris were piled on the road, making it difficult to find a suitable route for electric vehicles.

Moreover, there were more and more giant insects nearby, and it was no longer possible to continue riding. Ye Han reluctantly gave up the electric bike and rushed to the airport.

The running speed of the power armor is extremely fast, and the density of giant insects nearby is not high. Even if a giant insect targets Ye Han, it is too late to stop Ye Han, and actually lets him run all the way, crossing hundreds of meters without any danger.

, until there were more and more giant insects ahead, he was spotted by a few giant insects that turned around.

The running speed of the giant bugs was no less than a human's sprint of 100 meters. Four giant bugs rushed towards Ye Han from the front and side at the same time. They were still five or six meters away from Ye Han, and they jumped up and pounced on their prey.
