Chapter 253: Chapter 157: Blizzard Siege_3

The blizzard couldn’t stop the delivery guy’s steps, and after collecting 12 food items, the Beagles Team, pulling their sled, dashed toward the Shadow Base with the delivery guy. When they arrived at the Shadow Base, the delivery guy took a 30% fee, which was 4 food items, so the main base actually received only 8 food items.

After calculating, once the blizzard ended, the main base would have only one day’s rations, and the sub-base would have none. The plan to go to the supermarket during the blizzard was not feasible because the remaining food section of the supermarket was too far away to get food packages without getting frostbite. Moreover, each round trip could only transport 3 food packages and one had to traverse the blizzard twice; no matter how many medicines they had, they could not withstand such consumption. In actuality, after three transports during the blizzard, the base’s medical supplies were nearly depleted, unable to support another trip to the supermarket.

On the tenth morning of the blizzard at nine o’clock, the system broadcast: Considering that many players are bored to death guarding their bases during the blizzard, a special Zombie Storm Operation is launched. Due to the blizzard, the zombies have become ravenously hungry and will attack all base personnel over the next 7 days.

System broadcast: During the blizzard, player bases will not generate noise and will not suffer system sieges. Due to the effects of the blizzard, base radars and alert systems are damaged and will not provide invasion warnings. We wish everyone good luck in the end.

After listening, Lin Wu said, "Does Dawn really want to kill everyone?"

"No, no," Shana shook her head. "Dawn is punishing those who are trying to game the system."

Lin Wu asked, "How so?"

Shana explained, "Take Shadow Base as an example; if only Stone stayed, he could survive until the game servers close. I think the current player bases are at best medium or small, and medium or small bases, along with built warehouses, have a food storage limit of 40+."

Shana said, "Why can some people survive for so long? The first possibility is like Shadow Base, which has two pieces of farmland. The second is like us, having enough medical supplies and being close to a large food supply point. The third possibility, to do what most bases do, send most members to shelters, leaving one or two people to survive on points. A small base with a food storage limit of 20, if there are two people, that’s gone in 10 days, but for one person, they can last 20 days. And since the blizzard only lasts 17 days, that one person can totally survive."

Shana said, "To strike against the third type of gaming the system, so..."

Before she could finish, zombies burst through the front door. They stumbled in as if blown by the wind, took a little time to steady themselves, and then spotted three players seven meters away. The three grabbed their assault rifles and mowed down the few zombies.

Then, noises came from the back door, as four zombies rushed into the base, only to be eliminated by the three players again.

Let’s revisit the supermarket base’s layout. The supermarket is a large hall, a very large hall. The supermarket base is located in the northwest corner of the supermarket, in an L-shape. The vertical part of the L connects to the supermarket hall, and the horizontal part of the L is the main entrance of the supermarket base, which is also the employee passageway of the supermarket. The vertical is 14 meters, and the horizontal is 7 meters; the radio station is at the corner of the L, with the supermarket’s unique storage warehouse on one side and three small rooms opposite it, respectively a dormitory, infirmary, and library.

System broadcast: After the first attack, everyone should be clear about the situation they are currently facing. Please rest assured, there will be no Mutant Zombies in these seven days, but if a Heart of Blood Plague is nearby, Blood Zombies might appear. A friendly reminder: zombies will attack players non-stop for 24 hours.

Shana clapped her hands, "I was right, if there’s only one person in the base, there’s simply no time to sleep."

Lin Wu said, "We’ll need to work in shifts." This girl was getting smarter by the day under his influence. No wonder the ancients said those close to vermilion get stained red, and those close to ink get stained black.

Shana nodded, "We’ll operate in three double shifts. Work for 16 hours, rest for 8 hours. Given the layout of our supermarket, each shift must have two people. The people are to stand guard at the corner of the radio station, one responsible for each passage."
