The dinner was sumptuous, unprecedentedly sumptuous. They found a lot of cured meat in the red brick house in front of them. There was even a pig and a half. The team members didn't like it because it wasn't preserved well. The meat tasted a bit rancid. The pig bones were mixed with a variety of fresh spices to make a pot of thick soup.
The white slices of meat were boiling in the soup. None of the ten people were modest. They held a big bowl in one hand and drank the soup. No matter how hot the soup was, it just rolled on their tongues and slid down their stomachs. Their chopsticks picked up half an inch thick fat meat and blew on it. Then they stuffed it into their mouths and chewed. They chewed the fat meat in their mouths and felt the oil rolling in their mouths. Their eyes were still searching for the fat meat in the pot. They only looked at the fat meat and didn't look at the lean meat.
Huang Quan didn't show any majesty at the dinner table. He drank the hot soup and chewed the fat meat like the others. He didn't pick up the lean meat. He felt strange. He didn't eat fat meat before. Why did he like to eat fat meat today?
Was it because of the influence of the people around him?
The 10 of them sat in a circle, in the middle was a huge pot of soup. Not far away, a few large tarpaulins were used to form a conical shape. From time to time, there would be thick smoke drifting out from the gaps. They were making bacon, and after smoking for a few hours, the bacon would be ready. At that time, they could bring it back to the camp to add to the kitchen.
The dinner was unprecedentedly sumptuous. Huang Quan and his team members only ate until they were 80% full. They left the three drivers to eat. They went to the room and checked their equipment with the help of the strong light from the flashlight. It was eight o 'clock in the evening. At nine o' clock, it was time for them to move.
At nine o 'clock, Huang Quan and six team members moved towards the direction of the armory. Five people wore night vision goggles and walked in front. Behind them, a team member was grinding his teeth as he pedaled the tricycle.
The armory was located in a remote area. There weren't many houses. It might be close to the bird's nest. There weren't any ordinary zombies here. It only took them 20 minutes to reach the wall of the armory. They were careful all the way. If they walked at a normal speed, it would only take 15 minutes.
The armory was locked by a big iron door. The lock was not on the outside. The iron door was very thick. It wouldn't budge when pushed. Through the night vision goggles, they couldn't see the bolt in the middle of the door. The door had been remodeled. It wasn't the old door from before. The two doors were closed tightly, so Huang Quan couldn't find a place to start.
He raised his head to look at the wall. The eight-meter wall was covered with layers of electric fences, and he had to cut the fences to get to the top. Just as he was thinking about how to climb up, he saw the team members discuss among themselves. One of them took out a sealed syringe.
Under the pale green light, the color of the thing in the syringe couldn't be seen clearly. The team member carefully pushed the pressure handle and smeared the liquid inside on the door. Three to five seconds later, the mottled metal of the door tilted up and slowly turned to rust. Not long after, a fist-sized hole appeared on the door.
The team member didn't move. He quietly waited until the big hole finally expanded to the size of a palm. The team member opened the side zipper of the backpack and took out a long black glove. He used his left hand to hold the syringe and put it on the inside of the door. Then, the team member withdrew his hand and threw the syringe away.
"What is that thing?"
Huang Quan was very strange. It seemed that he had never seen this thing before.
"After the giant fish was killed last time, Manager Wang gave it to us. Each of us has one. It can melt steel. We can't use it on our hands. Even rubber gloves can't block it. Only this kind of leather glove can."
The team member waved the glove on his hand. After saying that, the team member tried to push the big iron door.
"Creak!"
In this quiet night, the sound of the metal door creaking could be heard from afar. The six of them were shocked. The door was only opened a gap, enough for one team member to take off his backpack and squeeze in.
"It hasn't been oiled for a long time. What other treasures do you have?"
Huang Quan said directly to the team members. The way he looked at them was similar to how he looked at Doraemon.
The team members looked at each other. It seemed that they also had no idea what to do. Instead, the team member who was squatting on the tricycle walked forward and took out a drink bottle from his pocket. It was half filled with unknown liquid.
"I don't know why, but when I saw the oil dripping from the barbecue, I didn't want to waste it, so I took half a bottle. Look, can it be used?"
Well, there really was a way.
The team member with the thinnest body went in. After three to five minutes, the door was silently opened. The moment it was opened, the rest of the team and a tricycle rushed in.
Behind them was a courtyard. There were two rows of spikes fixed on the ground. The spikes were like spikes facing the direction of the door. Several three-story buildings blocked the surroundings. Through the open space, there was a row of cement stairs. At the top of the stairs was a large platform. On the platform, there were three ping-pong tables made of bricks. Dozens of large flower pots were lined up on the edge of the platform.
On the platform, the whole courtyard could be seen. They didn't know much about the armory, so they could only search slowly. Just as they turned around, they heard a soft sound behind them. It seemed that something was knocking on the door.
After searching for a moment, they heard something knocking on the door. It should be the guard who smelled the human scent on the team members. One of the team members saw the shadow of a zombie through the window. He raised his gun and was ready to shoot. Huang Quan pushed the barrel away and pointed at the window. He clenched his fist and released it.
Seeing Huang Quan's gesture, the team member broke into a cold sweat. The gun barrel was equipped with a silencer, but the glass was not.
Hades gestured to one of the team members to open the door. The team member carefully turned the knob and found that the door was not locked. He didn't rush to open it. He calculated the frequency of zombies hitting the door and pushed the door open. A body with a strong stench brushed past his nose and went out the door.
The zombie that was hit staggered a few steps. Just as it stopped, a gun butt hit its back. "Kacha …" The sound of bones breaking was heard. The zombie fell to the ground and stopped moving.
Huang Quan walked into the gatehouse and pushed the night vision goggles on his helmet. He used the flashlight to search around. Finally, he found a monitor maintenance diagram in the drawer. Each building's department and weapon room were on it. Huang Quan looked at the diagram and knew that the armory here was not simple. The buildings outside were all on the surface. The real armory was behind the building.
Huang Quan let everyone go down to the courtyard. They walked along the basketball court to the right behind the small building. A wide cement road appeared in front of everyone. If they just stood at the gate and looked around, the road would be blocked by the small building. If they didn't look carefully, it would be hard to find it.
The cement road formed an arc, and the end of the arc was behind the armory. There was another wall and an even thicker iron gate. Yomi almost cursed out loud when he saw the iron gate. Was this where nuclear weapons were stored?
It was more complicated than the missile base.
It turned out that this place was more complicated than the missile base. After opening the iron gate, there was a huge parking lot. The parking lot was very simple. The roof was made of asbestos tiles. The two ends were made of bricks and the middle was supported by steel pipes as thick as an arm. There were seven or eight such buildings. The cars parked inside were all trucks. Most of them were old. Some had already collapsed and were almost rusted.
Passing through the parking lot, they came to the foot of the hill. After killing two zombies, they found the key in the duty room. Fortunately, the gate here was not the electronic gate in the missile base. Otherwise, Huang Quan would really be worried to death.
When they finally entered the armory, they let out a sigh of relief at almost the same time. They had not done anything else but opened the door to find their way. They had arrived at the armory at 9: 20, and it was already past 10: 00. They had spent almost three times as much time wandering around the small courtyard.
