Chapter 96: Chapter 92 Survivor_2Snow Egg: "I added to my Physical Strength, but I haven’t seen any guns getting beefier."
Little Knife: "I added to my Will, but I haven’t seen the guns getting any tougher."
Shana said with a hand to her forehead: "Some diseases are contagious."
Maya was a Doer. She had everyone shoot zombies twenty meters away without aiming for headshots. Once the shooting distance increased, the difference between those with strength and those without became pronounced. Horse Soul fired continuously for five seconds, punching a dozen holes in a zombie. Lin Wu fired continuously for five seconds and only managed to make two holes. When everyone took their turn, the results were consistent with what Maya had said: without enough strength to stabilize the gun, accuracy was abysmal.
The Raider wasn’t suitable for those who hadn’t improved their strength. It could be used, but its true potential couldn’t be realized.
Because of their reckless gunplay, a small horde of about a dozen zombies came knocking. Maya knelt on one knee, aimed, and fired. As bullets poured out, zombie plasma flew chaotically at a distance of over ten meters. In eight seconds, all fourteen zombies were dead. In those eight seconds, Maya had fired a total of 55 bullets.
Maya assessed herself: "I aimed for above the ribs, and about 30 bullets hit the target."
At that moment, Stone also realized that Maya and Lin Wu were cut from the same cloth. If he didn’t speak up, she could lead everyone in shooting practice all day. This wasn’t the Silencer’s role; this was the Raider’s.
"Stop!" That’s when Stone first felt Maya’s disapproval: "Time for a break, fellas."
Lin Wu led the protest: "We want to shoot guns, we..."
Stone gave Little Knife a knowing look. Little Knife got the hint, stepped forward, grabbed Lin Wu by the collar, and dragged him away. With Lin Wu no longer causing trouble, Stone began to rationalize with everyone, including Maya. Eventually, she agreed to store the Raider and promised to only take it out for base defense.
Having determined that the Raider wasn’t a fit for him, Lin Wu actually lost interest in the Raider. At a height of 1.7 meters, he was destined not to be a professional basketball center. Besides, those who liked to play would always find new toys. Why covet a toy that wasn’t right for you?

At the morning meeting, Maya announced that the scavenging work around the mountaintop base was concluded, and the next step was to extend the scavenging zone to the Wilderness Farm. Night shift members Lin Wu and Shana would go to the Sentry Card Substation, using it as a center to scavenge for valuable resources in the surrounding area.
There was a large Forest Park near the Sentry Card Substation, filled with human relics, a small park police station, vacation rental houses, RV campgrounds, and more.
To the west side of the park, close to the highway, was a small supermarket with an open-air parking lot housing about a dozen cars. The doors and trunks could be pried open with pry bars newly made by Su Shi.
Near the Sentry Card Substation was a small hydroelectric power station that likely also contained some supplies. Moreover, a gravel road to the east of the power station wound up the forested hillside. Although it was unclear where the road led, it was believed that following it might reveal some human structures.
The main reason Night Shift was sent to the outpost was the extremely scattered nature of nearby resources, which were also minor. For example, tents set up haphazardly by tourists, or a lonely fishing store by the lake. Additionally, there were vending machines, emergency park phone booths, food trucks, and souvenir shops scattered around.
This type of location lacked a clear objective. Should people go in groups or individually? Grouping up might lead to getting lost, but it was a waste of manpower for four people to
The office had a bed, a desk, and a long, embedded safe. Shana wasn’t in a hurry. Emulating Lin Wu, she went to the desk and used her phone’s light to check the items on it since it was a likely place for clues.
Suddenly, a hand reached out from under the desk and grabbed Shana’s ankle. Shana screamed and jumped on the spot, stomping the emerging zombie three times. Only after that did she pull out a pipe and fiercely thumped the zombie over a dozen times.
