Chapter 188: 188. Factory and Gas Station

But after a while, Anna stopped.

She was already tired after putting those medicine bottles back then and her so called ’mental strength’ hadn’t recovered yet. She couldn’t possibly force herself to take so much or she might faint in this place due to headache.

That wouldn’t be good at all.

Anyway, Anna didn’t know how to process these oil to make fertilizer and would just hand it over to the researchers later.

She looked at the machine in front of her and suddenly thought of something.

It would not blow up, right?

She remembered reading about a flood that caused a factory to explode because their machine required delicate control of heat and water. But they stupidly build the factory near the sea.

At that time, there was a bigger wave than usual, which caused the water to enter the factory.

There was no chance for recovery and everyone had to evacuated.

What happened afterwards was the explosion that caused a lot of miserable death for those who were around the factory.

This was also one of the reasons why the factories were not allowed to be built near the residential areas. The risk after any accidents were simply too big...

Anna shook her head and silently moved away, trying to find the warehouse but found that the road she picked was blocked.

She returned to the car slowly and found Mark and Dylan brought several large plastic bags. It seemed that they found the warehouse.

"You find it?"

"Yes. The condition was not very good, but these raw materials are salvageable. We’ll exchange them for points later in the base," Dylan replied.

"Good." Anna nodded. She thought about something. "Right, we haven’t divided the points from the previous exchange."

"Don’t worry, you can do it later."

They can send contribution points to others. It was also because of this that there were still many transactions that used money in the base.

However, neither one of them used money again because they didn’t think it was necessary.

"Shall we go to the other factories?" Mark asked after putting those bags into the truck. Looking at the truck, it was more than two third full by now. They could still take some of the materials, but it would be a bit tiring.

Dylan shook his head. "No, let’s go to the gas station to take a look there. We might not have enough gas."

The road was a bit uneven due to the various blockage on the road. If they were to go to the other factory, it might not be enough.

"Ok."

"But this place is really deserted. It looks like a ghost place now," Lucy commented as she entered the truck.

"True, but who would come here at this time?" Mark shook his head.

Other people’s focus was to find some food to eat. This kind of factory that was not a food factory definitely didn’t have any food. Besides, many food factories would take their resources directly from the farm in the morning so that it would be fresh.

They would not keep the food overnight.

It would be unnecessary.

"Let’s go."

"Yes."

They drove the car away and headed towards the gas station that had been planned. However, they had to take a detour once because the road was partially blocked. It was not very good.

But they found out that they couldn’t reach the place at all.

"This is... fuel lake?" Lucy asked, a bit dumbfounded when she saw the large patch of black liquid that formed a small lake in front of them. The place where the gas station located was at the corner of the street and the road around the gas station was lower than the gas station itself.

As a result, when the fuel leaked, it formed a pool, leaving only the broken pumping machine in the middle.

"...It’s a wonder that this fuel didn’t catch fire," Mark commented.

"Do you want it to catch fire?" Lucy was speechless.

"No, take the jerry cans and fill them back." Mark stopped the truck and looked at the video call in front of him.

"Got it."

The jerry cans were all in the cars. They carried all the jerry cans they had and other things. It was originally used to take the fuel from the car after they parked, but now, they could bring the fuel from the ground.

"Is it not mixed with dirt?" Anna asked with worry as she came down and took the jerry cans with Dylan.

"We’ll used cloth to filter them at home before pouring into the fuel tank," Dylan replied. "It’s better than having none at all."

The fuel must not be mixed with anything, even dirt. But the ground was so dirty and the fuel was mixed here.

So all they could do was to filter the fuel with the cloth later to separate the dirt from the fuel.

"How about if there’s water?"

Dylan looked at the fuel and shook his head. "Fuel is essentially heavier than water, so we can make something to separate them later."

Anna thought about it and nodded. "Ok, I’ll help later."

"Good."

They worked and moved the fuel into the jerry can. Mark and Lucy also came down to help and soon, they filled several jerry cans full of fuels. Looking at the small fuel lake in front of them, it was unexpectedly deep.

"Too bad we can’t bring more." Dylan sighed after using the plastic bags to carry the rest of the fuel. They put these bags in the trunk after tying the plastic bags carefully. He looked at the fuel in front of him and felt that it was quite clean.

But to be safe, it’s better to filter them later.

"It’ll be better if we have a large bucket or something like that to filter them later." Anna helped to bring these back to the car.

"Ok, let’s go back."

"Yes."

After they were done, they returned to the base.
