Chapter 366: Chapter 200: Exploration_3

Everyone continued the search and only then realized that the mall was quite large. Shana located the mall on the map based on its position. The mall was two kilometers away from the Sawmill, directly. A commercial street was adjacent to the mall, and there was a school nearby.

Maya and Lin Wu asked in unison, "Shuixi Middle School?"

Shana nodded, "What about it?"

"The task." During the winter, when scavenging in Left County, Lin Ma found a message passed by Fortress Company agents to certain individuals on a plank road. The message read: Board the plane tomorrow night at 10 o’clock, Shuixi Middle School playground. The code: "lingering fragrance on the hand."

Maya took over the map and saw that the mall was 500 meters away from Shuixi Middle School. The school was situated on high ground, with its main entrance connected to the commercial street by a slope. To reach Shuixi Middle School, one had to go through the mall and the entire commercial street, a task that was highly difficult and dangerous.

Checking the time, it was nearly three in the afternoon. Maya went over the blueprints in her mind and said, "Let’s head to exit number 3."

Exit number 3 was not far from exit number 2, and 20 minutes later, the exploration team arrived. This 20 minutes also included the time spent fighting three groups of zombies.

Lin Wu climbed up the ladder, cautiously lifted the manhole cover, and waited a bit to make sure it was clear before deploying the drone.

Lin Wu described, "We’re on a pedestrian walkway up here; about 40 meters to the right is the riverbank, and on the left are two five-story office buildings. ’Tomorrow’s High-End Business Office Building’ and ’The Day After Tomorrow’s Luxury Business Office Building.’ Oh wow..."

"What?" asked a team member.

Lin Wu scrutinized for a moment and said, "There is a parking lot in front of the first floor of the office buildings with not many vehicles, most of them are abandoned. Among them, there’s a beautiful black jeep, and it has the Fortress insignia on its top."

Maya asked, "How far away is it?"

Lin Wu estimated, "About a hundred meters, I guess. Cross the road and walk past the grass. There’s a small coffee and burger shop between the two office buildings. To the left of the burger shop, you can head towards the business office building, about 40 meters to reach the parking lot. Then another 30 meters will get you to the building’s main entrance. Currently, near the coffee shop, there is a Titan, and on the grass to the left, there are two Frenzies. The worst part is the entire business office building is shrouded in Blood Mist."

Shana drew a map while Maya asked, "Where is the car located?"

Lin Wu explained, "It’s in one of the parking spaces closest to the main entrance. The three spots closest to the entrance are for disabled parking. The first regular parking spot has that jeep, and next to the parking space is a sign that says ’Reserved Parking, No Unauthorized Vehicles.’"

Maya speculated, "If I’m not mistaken, at least one floor of this building has something to do with Fortress Company, and perhaps the entire building is Fortress’ property. This place is not far from Shuixi Middle School. The Night Demon’s purpose must be to guard the underground passage and prevent players from reaching Fortress Company smoothly."

Lin Wu said, "From where we are, there’s a pedestrian bridge by the side of the road, and the bridge leads directly to the second floor’s rooftop terrace of the Fortress office building. There’s an extended terrace on the second floor. You could drive across the bridge from the second-floor terrace to get to the riverside. There’s a dock by the river, and on it, there’s a sign that reads: ’Corporate Property, Do Not Use.’ Iron railings are embedded in the stone walls lining both sides of the path from the bridge to the river."

Fortress Company’s personnel could reach the riverside via the river route, take a car across the bridge, and arrive on the second floor of the office building directly. The highest terrace of the office building had a helipad. From such an arrangement, it wasn’t hard to deduce that this building was definitely connected to Fortress Company.

Maya said, "If you enter the South City River from the river route, it would take an hour and a half to reach the sea. This building is not so simple. If I’m right, it must be a branch of Fortress Company in Left County, and it might be a secret lab as well."

Shana reminded, "We don’t have time to explore the office building today."
