Chapter 544: Chapter 270: The Nightmare Revisited_3

Shana said, "Drive to the front of the fruit wholesale market, and everyone get off to clear the zombies."

Maya replied, "That would require a lot of bullets. Instead, it might be better to use the ’Nightmare’ tactic, using a regular car explosion to attract most of the zombies."

Shana said, "So our main problem is still the issue between cost and profit."

Maya said, "Exactly. Normally thinking, one or two hundred honor points won’t exchange for anything good. But we have never traded with a Fortress merchant before, so we’re not clear on his pricing for items, and we can’t rule out the possibility that some goods might be priced low. More importantly, many items are only sold by Fortress merchants. We need to know the information on his goods so we can trade next time. Otherwise, the next time a Fortress merchant appears, we will still know nothing about the details of the trade."

The Deputy Commander Stone, like a ghost, sat on the side and listened to the two Deputy Commanders strategize, seeing them troubled, generously said, "We have to waste what needs to be wasted."

Maya said, "Judging by the intensity of Lin Wu’s drone reconnaissance, it will probably take more than a hundred bullets to open up a safe zone. And we must use guns, melee weapons can’t stop the zombie’s assault."

Stone winced and asked, "What about driving a regular car there?"

Maya said, "We only have three repair kits left. Although the production room can also make repair kits, the base resources are dwindling, and the cost of making repair kits is getting higher."

Stone asked, "What about shelling?"

Maya replied, "The shelling point is too far from the armored vehicle, so the effect of drawing enemies is not good, and it might cause road congestion. If the shelling point is too close to the armored vehicle, it could blow the vehicle away."

Stone called out, "Lin Wu, come here."

After explaining the situation to Lin Wu, Stone asked, "Do you have any novel insights?"

Lin Wu answered, "What can I do? I can’t just throw people over there, can I?"

Shana’s eyes lit up, "Right, the armored vehicle doesn’t stop. People jump off as the vehicle passes the fruit wholesale market. The armored vehicle makes a circle, throwing a landmine from the vehicle to attract zombies with the explosion noise. This reduces the threat to the people jumping off. The armored vehicle moves here, utilizing straight-line acceleration to quickly reach the bridgehead, fighting for time for everyone to get back on the vehicle."

Maya said, "It’s dangerous to jump from a fast-moving armored vehicle. If the vehicle goes slow, the people who jump will be entangled by the pursuing zombies. However, I can give it a try. My Life Skills are the weakest, so my death would be the least costly."

Lin Wu reminded her, "Your swordsmanship is unmatched."

Stone mused, "It’s a shame Snow Egg has just learned about infrastructure, can we wait until Peanut is revived?"

Shana calculated, "Peanut died last night at 8:20 pm, and the merchant appears at 8 am. Theoretically, there’s 20 minutes’ time. However, after Peanut revives, it will take time to get back to the base, and driving there will also take time."

Maya said, "Either let one person take the risk, or we put down at least four gunmen."

Shana stated, "If we choose the former, Agility must be high enough to reduce the danger of jumping."

All three leaders looked at Lin Wu, who nonchalantly responded, "No problem."

"Not acceptable," Shana vetoed the proposal, "If he dies, Wai is gone too."

Maya and Stone both thought that made sense, and Lin Wu, displeased, said, "I have many strengths myself."

"We know," Maya replied perfunctorily to Lin Wu, and continued, "The last method: Concealment Medicine, which is corpse smell concealer. Stop the vehicle to let people off, and everyone who gets out takes the Concealment Medicine, keep the armored vehicle mobile, and be ready to return to the bridgehead to pick people up at any time."

Shana said, "We don’t have it in stock."

Maya said, "Make it on the spot."
