Chapter 135 Lack of Warm Supplies
"Of course, Hai Zi, if you want to go to Qingcheng to collect supplies, we won't stop you!" Xu Wenchu said cheekily.
"Xu the Charlatan, do you think I'm stupid? There are at least double-digit numbers of level 2 monsters in Qingcheng, not to mention the number of level 1 monsters! I'm not stupid, why would I go there to die!" Zhao Hai said irritably.
"Hehe! Actually, there's an industrial park next to Qingcheng. From what I sense, there are only three Level 2 Anomalies in that park, and it's close to us. The supplies there are enough to replenish our convoy! Plus, there's a large supermarket in that park! If we find that supermarket, we're sure to find supplies for surviving in extremely cold conditions!"
"Three level 2 monsters, Xu the charlatan, are you deliberately trying to send us to our deaths?" Su Wanyue said, speechless.
"Actually, it's not impossible. As long as you're fast enough, you can grab the supplies and run. There's still a chance!" Xu Wenchu said somewhat thoughtlessly.
"Hmm! Captain Xu, your idea is very good!" Zhao Hai changed his previous way of addressing Xu Wenchu, and his tone became inexplicably polite.
"No, Hai Zi, are you out of your mind? Three level 2 monsters, do you think we can handle them?" Wang Hu also looked incredulous.
Hearing Zhao Hai's tone, Xu Wenchu immediately had a bad feeling, but still said, "Tell me what you think!"
Zhao Hai's eyes darted around. "Captain Xu, why don't you be the bait?"
"Let's hide in a safe place first. You take the other survivors out and lure out the strange thing in that industrial park!"
"Then we'll go gather supplies, and then we'll all meet here together. What do you think?"
"If we get entangled with the monsters, we'll send a few survivors down to distract them and buy them time for you, Captain Xu!" Zhao Hai said smugly, finishing his plan.
In his view, the plan is still feasible to some extent.
Upon hearing this, Xu Wenchu was also incredulous. He even wondered if it was because he hadn't shown Zhao Hai the novel before, which led to him revealing such a vicious plan, a plan that was meant to kill him.
Xu Wenchu's expression was extremely unpleasant at this moment.
How could this guy come up with such a terrible idea as to use him as bait? And how could he even bring himself to say it?
How can someone who lives in 36 degrees Celsius say things like it's below zero?
Let me be the bait. None of those monsters are easy to deal with. I'm just a guide, the kind with absolutely no combat ability.
If I'm really caught by the monster, I can't beat it in a fight, and I can't outrun it!
Are we really going to use our useless, non-combat-capable horn to fight the supernatural?
Seeing that Xu Wenzhu remained silent, Zhao Hai patiently spoke again, saying, "Captain Xu, think about it. You're in the Guide Sequence; only you can sense the strange aura. As long as you're careful, you'll definitely be able to escape from the strange creature!"
"What do you think of this method?"
Zhao Hai thought about it and, from a rational perspective, felt that this method was actually quite good.
Su Wanyue's eyes lit up when she heard Zhao Hai's idea, and she couldn't help but nod and say, "Hehe! Captain Xu, I also think this is a good idea! How about we trouble you, Captain Xu?"
"Hai Zi, Wan Yue, all I did was stumble upon your little affair before. Is it really necessary to kill me?" Xu Wenchu's face turned from a liverish color to a dark purple, and he looked as if he wanted to spit out two puffs of white mist from his nostrils, turning into a bull in extreme rage.
"Captain Xu, if that's how you see it, it really hurts us. Do you think I, Zhao Hai, am that kind of person? I'm just..."
Before Zhao Hai could finish speaking, Xu Wenchu forced out a few words through gritted teeth:
"Zhao Hai, you fucking shut up!"
Zhao Hai: "..."
Damn it, you want supplies but aren't willing to lend a hand, what kind of captain are you?
What use are you?
Of course, Zhao Hai never said such things aloud, otherwise, Xu Wenchu might be so angry that he would die, and then their Star Train team would really be without a captain.
……
"We don't need to worry about food and water in the convoy right now, but the real problem is getting warm clothing and heating supplies."
"Also, the car needs to be modified accordingly."
"In extreme cold, people freezing to death is no joke!" Xu Wenchu said seriously over the loudspeaker.
"Also, let's be careful. In this kind of weather, quite a few people in the convoy are likely to catch colds or something. Let's try our best to prevent anyone from dying!"
Xu Wenchu said he wanted to try his best to avoid deaths, but everyone knew that in such a situation, how could people not die!
Although most of the people in their team had some warm clothing, it was still not enough in such cold weather.
The mountains and fields are now completely covered by snow, making it difficult for vehicles to drive on the snow.
From the moment they stepped into this frigid, snowy world, driving became extremely difficult for the vehicles in the convoy, so Xu Wenchu was constantly reducing the vehicle's speed.
Putting aside everything else, even Xu Wenchu himself almost slipped and rolled into a ditch because he was driving too fast at the beginning.
The best way to drive on snow is with a snowmobile.
Snowmobiles are something you only find in tourist areas in the north.
Most people's knowledge of snowmobiles comes from seeing them on TV or in movies.
The heavy snow had been falling continuously since the convoy entered this snowy world.
The heavy snow, as big as goose feathers, covered everything that everyone could see.
Without some modifications, it's impossible to drive the vehicle quickly.
Putting everything else aside, it's always good to put a few snow chains on the car's tires.
Also, cover the car windows with blankets or similar items.
Xu Wenchu talked on and on about these things, sounding quite long-winded.
But in reality, Xu Wenzhu is also under immense pressure right now.
The extreme low temperatures made Xu Wenchu worry that the entire convoy would be wiped out.
If that's the case, it would be very difficult for them, with their few sequence extraordinary abilities, to survive.
No one knows when they will be able to leave this snow country.
And this is only under low temperature conditions.
If they encounter that strange thing, the car won't be able to travel very fast in the snow. If there really is something strange, they won't care about the speed and will just have to keep driving forward as fast as they can!
Let alone dying at the hands of the supernatural, there are definitely many people who die from accidents caused by cars overturning due to slippery roads!
