Chapter 1000: Chapter 433: Entering Winter

Lin Meng was frightened by Xiao Yi’s words, turning to Lin Wu for help. Lin Wu said, "Just remember to kill yourself when the time comes. Jumping into the river is the preferred method; it’ll save us a lot of trouble." Asking Lin Wu to save her life was one thing, but expecting comfort from him was another; she might as well kill herself.

Lin Meng held Shana’s hand: "I don’t want to die; I want to live till the end."

Shana reassured her: "Don’t worry, you’ll definitely return to Blue Star healthy."

"Mhm."

Shana said, "I’ll have to take away the candy and chocolate you’ve hidden in your pillow."

"Don’t do that." Lin Meng hastily said, "I can still make a play for it."

Lin Wu asked in surprise, "You’ve hoarded food? What are you, a groundhog?"+

"Just some snacks." Lin Meng said dissatisfiedly, "Which girl doesn’t have a little secret stash of snacks?"

Standing by the door, Maya interjected, "I don’t."

Lin Meng was at a loss for words. Shana looked at Little Knife, and Little Knife caught the drift, cheerfully saying, "I’ll help you get rid of them."

Lin Meng spat blood, "Little Knife, my dear sister, just help me store them, for storage, the kind with a storage fee."

Lin Meng was as good as useless.

Currently, the active staff consists of three veterans: Xiao Nu, Xiao Ju, and Xiao Zhuan, along with one NPC, Xiao Wu. From Shadow: Lin Wu, Snow Egg, Maya, Shana, Little Knife.

Two people per team, nine people divided among four posts, each shift working six hours every day. It’s not a big problem in the autumn, but once winter arrives, being exposed to the cold winds for six continuous hours is unbearable for a normal person. Alternatively, change shifts every three hours.

Xiao Nu’s voice interrupted Maya’s thoughts: "A boat is coming."

Maya got out of the vehicle, walked to the railings, and looked down, saying, "It’s Nightmare and her group, looks like they want to spend the winter here."

Lin Wu poked his head out: "Their junk boat doesn’t have a heater, does it?"

Maya said, "By the way, it’s a chance to find a place for Xiao Jing."

Lin Wu doubted, "I’ve never noticed Nightmare possessing even the basic decency of humanity."

Maya said, "You can have your prejudices, but don’t exaggerate."

"I need to pee." Lin Wu, eyeing the location where the ship was moored, prepared to unzip his pants. Unable to stand it anymore, Maya gave Lin Wu’s butt a kick.

Xiao Nu took out a tape measure she’d been holding, pulled out a length, and said, "Maya, you should just keep an eye on him, see if he dares to really whip it out."

Dawn, you hooligan.

...

The group met under the bridge.

"Staying over the winter is not a problem, and neither is integrating Xiao Jing into the base," Shana said. "But she must participate in building the base. Let me be blunt, we will face immense zombie pressure in the winter. I suggest you go to Starlight Base."

Nightmare said, "We’ve seriously considered this and eventually chose the Railroad Bridge Base. Firstly, you all are easy to get along with. Unlike Starlight’s fairness and openness, we newcomers would have to start off doing the lowest jobs like cleaning the toilets. At least your base doesn’t have toilets that need cleaning."

Nightmare: "Secondly, you have abundant resources. There’s wood and prey in the mountains, aquatic delicacies in the river, plus a large stockpile of coal for heating."

Shana commended, "You really do tell it like it is."

Nightmare: "I like the truth. This ship belongs to your base, Xiao Jing knows how to refill the diesel, and you also have some mechanical experts. To speak frankly, if you can’t stay here in the future, you can still use this ship to head out to sea."

Shana asked curiously: "How did you pass the East Base’s surface inspection?"

Nightmare replied: "I flew the Fortress flag. What do you think? There are also some weapons and ammunition here that I guess you won’t be interested in."

"Wait for me a second." Shana walked to one side and took the walkie-talkie: "Have you come to a decision?"

Maya: "Agree, Lin Wu, drop the ropes."

Lin Wu threw down two rope ladders from above, and also dropped a net bag. Nightmare and his group placed useful supplies into the net bag to be hauled up. The ship was stranded on the riverbank, and after securing it with ropes, several people climbed the rope ladders to reach the railway bridge base.

There was no welcome party; everyone waved and moved on. Shana led the three to the female dormitory carriage. Of the three, Xiao Jing was the happiest, as she was responsible for guarding the ship last time and rarely disembarked, only coming to the railway bridge twice for meals.

Lin Wu returned to the sentry post to start sniping Mutant Zombies. Blood Meng lifted the waterproof cloth on one side and saw a heavy machine gun, then looking at the two boxes of ammunition beside Lin Wu, she asked in surprise: "Did you guys raid the East Base?"

Lin Wu smiled and invited Blood Meng to sit, Blood Meng sat down on a chair and fired a few shots with the rifle: "This gun is not bad."

"Thank you for the compliment, sister."

Blood Meng looked through the binoculars: "Heh, a fire at the city gates is a disaster for the fish in the moat; this place was originally peaceful, I didn’t expect that because two groups fought over territory, they ended up driving the zombies over here. Do you have any backup strategies?"

"Yes, to retreat into the mountains." Lin Wu took back his rifle: "It’s the final season."

"Indeed." Blood Meng sighed with emotion: "The final season, if it weren’t for this game, we would never have met."

Lin Wu: "Speaking of which, I should thank Dawn for turning this salted fish around."

"Heh, you wouldn’t have been that bad off on Blue Star either." Blood Meng said: "Personality decides everything, where’s Lin Meng?"

Lin Wu pointed: "The medical carriage, probably going to be holed up there all winter."

Blood Meng asked: "Are you still doing tasks?"

"Yes, but they’re really hard, I’ve only completed five." Focused on aiming.

Blood Meng almost spit out blood: "Five? You’ve completed five?"

Lin Wu fired, killing a Titan: "Six now."

Blood Meng was annoyed: "What do you need all those points for? Not even Dawn dares to say you’re second in points."

Lin Wu quickly said: "Don’t shout so loud, I’ll have to explain later."

Blood Meng turned with a smile: "Little brother..."

Lin Wu: "No."

Blood Meng: "I haven’t said anything yet."

Lin Wu: "Just with that enchanting call of yours, I can already hear a price."

"Hmph." Blood Meng twisted Lin Wu’s ear and left.

The more tasks completed, the higher the difficulty of the tasks. Lin Wu looked at today’s daily tasks and felt like dying. They were all impossible tasks, tasks that sent you to your death. However, the second team task could be completed in one more day; the requirement for the task was that the person who accepted the team task did not die within the deadline.
