My Cherry Will Explode in the Apocalypse - Chapter 74 – Infected Rat Infestation

Unedited

It’s more than a thousand jin of meat. Since the end of the world, most of the people in this base have never tasted meat, let alone such fresh meat. No one will turn it away.

Finally, the four forces of Wancheng base divided the wolf meat and agreed to let the south base enter the laboratory to learn the soilless cultivation technology. Dr. Yang was so happy that he moved into the lab that day with his two assistants and two wood ability users.

It’s just that Wang Xurong still has some problems in his face after all. He showed them a tight lipped smile. “Unfortunately, you are not destined to taste this meat. If you change your mind, the door of the Wang family will be open to you at any time, and you will always have a share of this meat.”

“Haha.” In response to him, Zhan Yun and others smiled calmly.

With Dr. Yang’s ability, he should be able to master the technology of soilless cultivation in a few days, but this also means that they need to stay in Wancheng base for a few days.

That night, there was a strong smell of meat in the base. All the forces got fresh meat, so they naturally wanted to take it out to eat. Now that the weather is so hot, this meat can be put away soon.

The Wang family took out some meat to stew some soup, and gave some to the people under their own influence, which was regarded as a way of attracting people. They took out a part of it and made a whole meat feast for those under the Wang family. Although the Wang family has abundant materials, they are reluctant to eat meat at ordinary times. They only take out some meat to eat when they are in need of it occasionally. Even so, they eat pickled meat and bacon, unlike fresh meat, which they haven’t tasted for some time. Today, they finally realize the taste of eating meat.

The meat of the mutants is as delicious as it was said to be. On this day, it is a festive day at the base of Anhui city, and the four powers’ people at till their mouth is full of oil.

The local garrison, in particular, is the weakest of the four forces. The soldiers are not treated as well as the other forces, and they have the least materials. They do all the hard work, but only get the least benefits. The Wang family and the Hong family always talk about the lives of innocent people. The garrison, unable to survive, can only stand on its head no matter how dangerous it is. If the Lu family doesn’t help them these days, they may not even have enough to eat.

This time, they got the least share of the meat, but they still got 200 Jin. The commander of the local garrison is a Lieutenant Commander surnamed Dai, who leads a regiment of soldiers in Wancheng. As soon as Lieutenant Commander Dai checked on the amount of the meat he split it up instead of storing it, and anyway, the brothers hadn’t had a good meal for such a long time, they just took it all out and cooked it. The meat was all braised. It’s a pity that wolf meat doesn’t have much fat. It’s basically pure meat. After braised in brown sauce, the taste is not as good as pork. But after all, it’s meat. Just smelling it can make saliva flow everywhere.

There are some dry vegetables in the soup leftover from the stew. It’s also delicious to boil. They cooked a few large pots of white rice, and hundreds of men squatted together, while eating their heads did not lift.

Lieutenant Commander Dai also specially invited Guan Hong and the others to eat together. After all, they are all comrades in arms. Moreover, this time they were able to eat meat, thanks to their comrades from afar.

Guan Hong didn’t refuse either. He went with his brothers. He was going to take this opportunity to tell Lieutenant Commander Dai about the new bullets as well as the fruit and vegetable juice, at least to help them strengthen their power.

Zhan Yun and his group didn’t follow him. They hid in the hotel, closed the door and ate fish hotpot. There is a smell of meat all over the outside, but no one noticed that a small group of people was hiding here, eating good food.

“Hmph, who cares so much for their wolf meat? They don’t even have enough oil. They’d die from hunger.” Zheng Jiahe faces his own bowl of meat slices, while he nags about his dislike.

“Yes, those people act just like they haven’t seen meat for hundreds of years. When they saw the carcasses of wolves in the truck, their eyes almost popped out.” Song Chengshu who rarely speaks, adds a sentence. It’s hard to not see Wang Xurong’s appearance as if he exceeds everyone. That kid is just like a frog in a well. He thinks he’s the greatest just because he awaked a thunder ability.

Every person said something and it became very lively.

During dinner, though Su Ruizhe didn’t speak much, he always smiled. Obviously, he agreed with Zheng Jiahe and the others’ words. He was particularly annoyed with the self-righteous Wang Xurong, who was so rude while talking to brother Zhan! So while the Wangs eat wolf meat, Su Ruizhe and his teammates eat fish hotpot together.

There is no power supply in Wancheng base, so they still use a portable stove for cooking fish hotpot.

The bottom of the pot is the fish soup stewed with fresh black fish kept in the space, which is delicious. The mutton and beef balls and so on are all ready-made quick-frozen packages taken from the supermarket, which are put in the small cave of the space to keep fresh. Now they are no different from the original ones. Vegetables are also planted in the space. There are turnips, bamboo shoots, green vegetables, spinach, sprouts, mushrooms, etc. A group of people is full of fish and meat, and their stomachs are bulging. Even Xiaohei has eaten two bowls of fish soup.

Having enough to eat and drink, Zhan Yun stealthily destroyed the waste left from the preparation of the food with his corrosive ability. His ability is a bit overqualified in this kind of act, but it’s always good to be careful.

After Guan Hong returned, he went to find Zhan Yun quickly. The local garrison heard the news of the new type of bullets. They were shocked and excited at the same time. However, they did not have the equipment suitable for making the new type of bullets in their hands. Instead, Lu Jia had some local gun technology, and Lu Jia helped them a lot, so they wanted to cooperate with Lu Jia. But before telling the good news to Lu Jia, they still want to ask for the consent of Guan Hong. After all, the news is provided by Guan Hong.

And as for Guan Hong, he wants to hear Zhan Yun and Su Ruizhe’s opinion, after all, it is Zhan Yun and Su Ruizhe who actually discovered that plants have a restraining effect on the zombie virus.

“We have no opinion.” Zhan Yun and Su Ruizhe look at each other, smile and answer.

Zombies are the common enemy of all mankind. If we kill one more, we will have more hope. Therefore, Zhan Yun and Su Ruizhe did not intend to hide this information from the beginning.

The intention of telling this news to the local garrison is to help them become stronger. Lu Jia has been cooperating with the garrison to fight against Wang Jia and Hong Jia. If they get this news, it will make them more powerful.

Guan Hong also laughed, and he knew that they were definitely not the kind of people who would make a fool of themselves.

“Captain Zhan Yun, Mr. Su, I have another unexpected request…”

“Captain, please ask.”

“It will take a while for them to produce and master the new bullets, so I want to share some of the new bullets we have brought with them, but the bullets we have brought are limited. Would you mind if I asked you, Mr. Su, to transform some plant bullets for us?” As he said this, Guan Hong brought out two big fresh corn, which is the result of soilless cultivation and the catalysis of wood power in Wancheng base.

“Of course.” For Su Ruizhe, it’s just a piece of cake.

When Guan Hong left, he took a small bag of corn bullets and two corn grenades.

Six days later, Dr. Yang confidently returned to the team with experimental records and data, eager to return to their own base and put the soilless cultivation technology he just learned into practice.

Guan Hong said goodbye to Lieutenant Commander Dai and left the base of Wancheng with his team at night.

The journey back was very smooth. It took only four days. On the fifth night, they arrived at the south base.

But they could not imagine that the southern base was in a mess.

They don’t know how more than half of the grain in the warehouse of the base suddenly disappeared at the same time. The base made a comprehensive investigation and found a rat hole, which led to a rat infestation in the base. Commander Jiang ordered all the soldiers to exterminate the mice together, but they all changed. They became stronger and more aggressive. Many soldiers were bitten by them.

Mice carry a lot of the virus, the bitten soldiers have skin ulceration and fever, but the current medical level is too low, only to give the wounded anti-inflammatory drugs and injection as treatment.

Now the base is faced with the situation of food shortage and endless rat injuries. The base is in a panic, and Commander Jiang is in a panic that made him almost lose his hair.

He tried to smoke the rat holes, and he tried to let the water ability users fill it with water. But the rat holes were everywhere. This side was blocked, and the rats escaped from the other. Unless all the rat holes were blocked, he would not be able to kill them at all.

It’s no use to let soldiers guard the granary 24 hours. It’s useless to try to put rat traps all over the floor. Those rats are so powerful that they can only helplessly save less food…

After Zhan Yun and the others returned, Jiang Xuzhou immediately asked them to go to the base headquarters. He remembered that Zhan Yun and Su Ruizhe had special abilities. Maybe they could help to find a way.

After hearing this, Zhan Yun and Su Ruizhe also found it difficult, so they agreed to give it a try.

These mutated mice are too troublesome to deal with. Zhan Yun brings Xiao Hei from Yu Dongdong and plans to try it with a cat. Cats are the natural enemies of mice. Although these mice mutated, Xiao Hei is not an ordinary cat either. Maybe it can play a big role.
