My Apocalypse Fortress Vehicle

10. Picked up a treasure



The Fortress of Doom dragged two oil tankers through the ice and snow. Gu Zhuo followed the map and returned the same way, praying in his heart not to get lost. After all, his warehouse is located in an empty suburb without any reference.

In the living cabin of the Doomsday Fortress, Gu Zhuo put the woman on the sofa. The air conditioner is on in the living cabin, which is very warm. Now it depends on when the woman can wake up on her own.

Following the map, Gu Zhuo drove for a long time in the wind and snow, which took twice as long as the journey. It wasn't until he finally saw the blurry large warehouse in the snow that Gu Zhuo felt relieved.

It took some time to drag the two oil tank trucks to the warehouse, and marked his warehouse on the map with the word "oil" on it. This way you can prevent yourself from forgetting any supplies that are difficult to carry in the future when you put them somewhere.

After doing these things, Sam suddenly shouted from the living cabin at the back. Gu Zhuo rushed from the cockpit to the living cabin and saw that the woman had woken up and was sitting on the sofa, looking at everything here blankly.

Hearing the sound of Gu Zhuo coming, she looked up at Gu Zhuo, then cautiously stepped back a little distance behind the sofa, looked him up and down, and asked in a cold voice: "Who are you? Where are you?"

Gu Zhuo shrugged, not caring about her vigilance towards him, and sat down on the other end of the sofa. He motioned for Sam to stop shouting and let him lie down at his feet.

"You may not have an impression of me, but I've seen you before. I was the one who bought a lot of things in the supermarket that day. My name is Gu Zhuo. As for why you are here, it's simple. I saved you."

Hearing this, the woman squinted her eyes at him. The next second, she seemed to remember who Gu Zhuo was, and the confusion in her eyes diminished a bit. However, she still asked with hostility:

"You saved me?"

"right."

Gu Zhuo nodded and told her what happened.

After hearing the whole story, the woman lowered her head. She didn't know what she was thinking, but it seemed that she was not as alert as before.

The atmosphere between the two fell into silence for a while. Seeing this, Gu Zhuo got up from the sofa. The woman asked him nervously: "What do you want to do?"

"Cooking, I'm hungry."

Gu Zhuo had been busy at the gas station for so long, doing all kinds of tiring work back and forth. The little food he had eaten for lunch had long been consumed, and now he was really hungry. He walked to the kitchen, took out two steaks and some vegetables from the refrigerator, and prepared to cook.

Seeing that he didn't pay any attention to her, the woman relaxed her tense nerves a little and began to carefully observe the surrounding environment.

The sofa she is sitting on now has a very soft texture, like sitting on cotton. There was a table in front of the sofa and even a TV.

The entire interior space of the car was very large. The kitchen where Gu Zhuo was cooking had two large refrigerators, and she even spotted a coffee machine with her sharp eyes.

This kind of luxurious configuration was top-notch before the end of the world, let alone after the end of the world. It was simply a paradise. The woman couldn't help but click her tongue, and at the same time, she sighed in her heart:

This kind of fortress vehicle is now in danger for everyone at home. It's okay when no one is paying attention. But when the order is completely chaotic, it will be a moving target, which is very dangerous!

While she was evaluating the doomsday fortress in her mind, Gu Zhuo came over with prepared steaks and vegetables. He also placed a portion in front of the woman.

"Thank you." The woman thanked Gu Zhuo politely. She waited for Gu Zhuo to take a bite of the steak before starting to eat in silence.

After finishing the steak, the woman took the initiative to introduce herself to Gu Zhuo:

"Chaoying, my name."

After Chaoying introduced her name, she continued to tell Gu Zhuo everything she had experienced since the apocalypse, which was considered a frank announcement to him. After all, the person in front of her was her savior.

After the blizzard that swept the world, Chaoying had been living with her brother, Chaoyang, who was only five years old, in the staff dormitory behind the supermarket. In the entire employee dormitory, apart from the two siblings, there was only one other employee at the gas station, the male body that Gu Zhuo found at the entrance of the supermarket.

After the blizzard came, Chaoying immediately discovered that all communication tools had lost signals. Moreover, the ambient temperature is too low, and the conventional air conditioner in the staff building cannot be used if it is below 25 degrees Celsius.

Although there is a gas station and supermarket in front of the employee dormitory, there is no need to worry about food and water issues, but Chaoyang's health is very poor. Apart from going to the supermarket to get supplies, Chaoying takes care of Chaoyang every day.

As the temperature outside became lower and lower, everything that could be used to make a fire for warmth had been burned clean by Chaoyang.

Finally, on a cold night, Chaoyang still couldn't make it through.

Before Chaoying could feel sad, all her supplies had been used up, and now she had to go to the supermarket to replenish supplies. She put on a knife for self-defense and headed to the supermarket despite her grief.

In the supermarket, she met the male employee. In the past few days, they had been on good terms. Although the male employees knocked on her door several times, they were all dismissed by Chaoying on the grounds of taking care of Chaoyang.

Chaoying was busy replenishing supplies in the supermarket when a male employee suddenly came over and asked about her brother. Chaoying was already in grief and had not recovered yet. Now when the male employee asked, she had to find some random words to explain it away.

Unexpectedly, the male employee asked her maliciously if her brother had died of illness. Hearing this, Chaoying was surprised and offended, and asked him how he knew about this.

The male employee stopped looking for supplies at this time, but slowly approached Chaoying and told her that he had actually been spying on her for a long time.

Chaoying didn't expect that the seemingly honest man in front of him would do such a nasty thing. The man still licked his lewd smile and approached her. He chuckled as he approached:

"The world has become like this, and no one is taking care of us until now. The police don't work, the government doesn't work, God doesn't know how many people are freezing to death like your brother! Just follow me, follow After you marry me, I will raise you. If you don’t follow me, hehe, you are a woman, let me play with you for a few days and then kill you. When the wind and snow stop, I will tell others that you froze to death, and no one will Discover!"

With that said, he got closer to Chaoying, ready to move. He hugged Chaoying and rubbed his head into Chaoying's neck. Chaoying is a woman after all, and she can never compete with an adult man in terms of strength.

When the man was about to rip off Chaoying's down jacket, Chaoying took advantage of him and took out a self-defense knife from his pocket. She knew that it would be difficult to injure his vitals with a knife through a heavy down jacket. If the man was completely angered, she would definitely end up miserable.

She noticed that the man's head was still rubbing hard into her neck, so she saw the right moment and stabbed him in the back of the neck, which was the most vulnerable and unprotected part.

This moment was related to her future survival, so she used all her strength to pierce a bloody hole in the back of the man's neck. The man obviously didn't expect that Chaoying would still have such a hand. He was startled, then raised his head, covered the back of his neck with his hand, and stared at Chaoying with wide eyes.

He was just about to reach out and snatch the knife from Chaoying's hand and drag her to be buried with him. The next second, he fell heavily to the ground.

She killed a person with her own hands. Chaoying collapsed on the ground, but she was only stunned for a few seconds. She immediately came back to her senses and started to deal with the man's body.

That man was right. In such an environment, the order had a tendency to fall apart. Even if the blizzard passes and his body is discovered, it can be said that he died in an accident and no one will hold her responsible.

What's more, Chaoying knows that this kind of doomsday will continue...

Because the temperature was too low, the man's blood did not flow for long before it was frozen and turned into ice-cold blood clots.

Chaoying spent a lot of effort to drag the man's body outside the supermarket, and then threw it in the snow. Snow would bury her crime, but also her last hope for the future.

After doing all this, Chaoying returned to the supermarket and wanted to get some more supplies. But due to lack of physical strength and long-term mental stress, when she was getting food, her vision went dark and she fainted in front of the food shelf.

When she woke up again, she was already lying on the sofa of the fortress car.

After hearing everything Chaoying had gone through in the past few days, Gu Zhuo secretly thought that this woman was not easy to mess with. At the same time, it also confirmed his guess that the social order is now on the verge of collapse. Even a gas station employee knows that no one can restrain their own morality anymore.

Then let alone the rest of the city.

After Chaoying finished telling his story, he let out a long sigh, and then said to Gu Zhuo in a serious voice:

"Mr. Gu Zhuo, I'm very grateful to you for saving me. But I have to remind you that although the living space in your RV is very comfortable, it is too conspicuous. There will definitely be a lot of people there by then. People come and rob. Once people open their moral valve, you never know what they are going to do.”

Seeing that Chaoying was indeed admonishing him sincerely, Gu Zhuo smiled, collected all the dishes on the table, and threw them into the dishwasher:

"Don't worry, this is not a RV, it's a doomsday fortress. Even if someone wants to steal my car, I'm afraid they won't be able to do it unless they send out a special army to surround me."

Seeing Gu Zhuo being so confident, Chao Ying couldn't laugh or cry:

"Mr. Gu Zhuo, I don't mean to pour cold water on you, but I have a little knowledge of mechanical equipment. As far as I know, based on the current technology, even if you drive a top-level armored vehicle, you can't say it is hundreds of millions of dollars. 100% invincible.

"Besides, according to our country's policies, your RV cannot reach the level of a military vehicle. Even if you own a Unimog, a Nomad Navigator, a German MAN, etc., it is nothing more than a military vehicle. It was something someone else boasted about online, but at this moment, a homemade land mine from someone else can cause serious damage to your car."

Gu Zhuo's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard Chaoying's clear and logical analysis. He slammed the table, stood up, and asked Chaoying:

"You know so well, are you a heavy truck enthusiast or a serious researcher related to machinery?"

Seeing that Chaoying was so young and a delicate little girl, Gu Zhuo couldn't believe that she was a researcher related to machinery.

Unexpectedly, Chaoying was just stunned and answered him:

"Before I dropped out of school, I was in the mechanical engineering experimental class at Tsinghua University."

"Mechanical engineering experimental class! Then you must be able to draw design drawings, right!?"

Although he didn't know why Gu Zhuo asked this, Chaoying still nodded: "Of course."

"Very good!"

Gu Zhuo was overjoyed. Unexpectedly, his conscience broke out and he accidentally saved a baby!

What he needs most now, besides oil and materials for upgrading, is a talent who can draw design drawings!
