Chapter 140: 140
The place isn’t that secure at all. All we need to do is slide the huge gate at the side and we could enter it. You could easily see the white places with a lot of cent and hollow blocks on one side and gravel and other equipnt in the other. The dump truck I’m looking for is there and the back hoe is already loaded in a much larger truck with a steamroller.
“Well, who would take construction equipnt this early?” I thought to myself.
“Okay, clear the area first. I’ll head to the back where the ones still following behind are. Kaley, cover yeah?” I said as I hopped from the back of my truck.
Katana on my right and the scabbard on my left. I slowly paced forward as I raised my blade. There’s a few in front so I started on clearing them.
“Got a shooter on the back might as well save more bullets when it’s possible.” I thought to myself.
Like a max level character traipsing around a bunch of level 1 noobs, the regular ones almost killed themselves to avoid .
The rest of them went to the sides and cleared the few near the entrance while slowly stretching the periter where it’s clear of zombies on the other side. It took us a few minutes but we made that side of the street clear with them.
“Hey, should we go to the gym and the spa too?” Mark asked.
“We could, but let’s get inside this place first.” I replied as I flicked my katana then wiping it with a cloth after.
They opened the gate while my uncle drove the truck inside. I made a small scan of the area first and we headed to where their small office is located.
“Check the whole place first on any signs of those things. I don’t want any surprises here.” I told the group then Mark, Jared and Tatiana made a round.
I made a couple of knocks to their office first and after a few monts of silence, I picked my way in.
I turned the lights on and I checked each table, cabinet, file and anywhere I could find sothing useful.
What I found were several doc.u.nts that is for contracts, a few packs of cigarettes, a small radio, a pack of gum and the newspaper from before it started.
“No one has been here since it started.” I thought to myself.
“Found the keys yet?” my uncle ca inside.
“It must be in the room in that door.” I replied.
We approached the door and I knocked first.
“You’re really cautious huh?” Kaley said.
“I’ve seen enough films where a person opens a door and a zombie is suddenly in front of them and gets killed stupidly. Who would’ve thought that proper etiquette can be a survival tool?” I said as I laughed.
“Well, you’re right about that.” She said as she squeezed a faint smile.
I picked the lock and opened the door. It looks like a regular office and the only difference is the air conditioner at the top-right corner and the huge and comfy chair at the middle.
“Well, he’s the boss. This is understandable. Though that thing could cool down the whole office alone.” I thought to myself.
I opened the drawer and then I found a family picture and the keys to the vehicles outside. Each one is labeled properly to which it goes and with its corresponding plate number on so small vehicles or trucks.
I threw the keys to my uncle and he caught it.
“Do we just take the vehicles or do we take a few items here too?” he asked.
“Hmm, let’s fill half the truck with the hollow blocks in here and place so of the tools here and the cent mixer. Oh, I’ve noticed near the trucks that there are scaffoldings there that we could use as well. The sacks of cent on the corner should be taken too since it’s easier to store rather than that mound there.” I said.
It took us a while to load everything up since my head itches everyti they misaligned a hollow block from the formation I had in mind. In the end, I’m the one who organized them perfectly while they just loaded it on the truck.
“Y’know bro, this is also a thing different from you and Oscar. We just haul everything here in a pile and take care of it in compound.” Jared said.
“Hah! Well, if you organize them nicely, you could squeeze about 20-30% making the haul more substantial.” I replied while I place each one perfectly.
“Hey, are we taking that steamroller as well? Or we just leave it here?” my uncle asked.
“Nah, we take it as well. Better to have and not need than to need and not have.” I replied.
The group shook their heads smiling while I opened the gate so we could drive outside after clearing a few that have walked at the periter.
We also made a quick stop to the spa and the gym for so essentials but we only got a few essential oils, fragrant herbs from the spa while we got jars of protein powder and other supplents from the gym. We didn’t take the equipnt there because we got plenty at our ho already and the quality is sub par at best.
Mark is driving the dump truck while Dong is driving the truck without the sidings where the back hoe and the steamroller is in. Jared accompanying Mark while Tatiana is with Dong. I’m facing them while I rode on the top of my truck while we drive on a line.
In a corner of my eye I saw a regular zombie chasing after us coming from a corner. I looked at the hollow blocks at my feet and grabbed two.
“What are you doing with those?” Kaley asked.
“Just watch.” I said as I started the calculation in my head.
“That thing is running at that speed and if I try to show of- no, try to hit it accurately that way… Hmm, I need to throw this at that height and follow it with this with this thing at this ti. Well, we’ll never know until we try it!” I grumbled in a fast pace then I threw the hollow blocks in the air.
The first one ca at an angle and accurately struck the kneecap of the zombie running towards us and it halted but when it started to stabilize, the second hollow block smashes on its head on that short pause.
*trrg*
*TRRG*SPLCK*
The head got smashed by it and it imdiately fell down unmoving.
*bzzt*
“Sky too OP, please nerf. Autoban Sky next update.”
*bzzt*
*bzzt*
“HAHAHAHA!!! Did you see that?! Am I aweso or what?!”
*bzzt*
“Show off.” Kaley smiled to the side.
“Rember the science test that we have before?” I replied.
“I rember those! Like at what speed should you be moving to hit a target at that distance while using a ball that is this heavy. I think this is the ti I’ve seen one of those used in real life. Well, they are being used but the examples are ridiculous.” she said.
We drove near the DDR camp and the soldier taking guard had their eyes bulge when they saw what we we’re bringing back.
“Funny how surprising it would be to be carrying construction supplies now…” I thought to myself.
We made our turn and we finally reached the compound. The trucks our parked outside the compound and we left them there first since most of the group are in the 3rd road clearing the area. My group went down from our newly-acquired vehicles and we walked towards the place. Almost all of the houses here are close to each other and there is only a few where a wall separates them. Several houses are strewn about like apartnts and we just walked straight to where my uncle and the others are dismantling so of the squatter houses.
My uncle Zeidrick and the rest are in their working attire and he has a huge crowbar and he is in the middle of pulling so of the nails stuck in one of the houses.
“Hey, you guys doing okay?” I said.
“Yeah. I just had to- hmph! Pull this- hmph! Little bitch of a hmph! Nail out! Ah! Finally, did it!” he celebrated.
“Where’s Lois and the rest?” Jared asked.
“Oh! Go to the end of the road where most of the houses on the wooden poles were. They’ve been picking off so of them with the harpoon and I made a couple of long poles so you could just stick them in the head with it.” he replied.
“Do you need to use the truck for the building materials to be moved? I could haul so of the hollow blocks on one place first.” I asked.
“Nah, we have a lot of trucks here that we could use. I’ve used the one with the beams earlier and Anthony placed so of the scrap tal at the yard and the other at the covered court.” he replied.
I said my goodbyes and my other uncle, Zardon decided to stay and help with dismantling the other houses with Dong and Mark. We four headed to where Lois and the others were and I saw them busy at work. Lois has the harpoon gun and the others are slowly picking the ones off one by one with the long sticks while a few are slowly bringing so of the garbage up with a few with nets on them so it could be disposed of properly later.
