Yay chapter 200!! May the next 100 chapters be faster than the last!

The abandoned warehouse was also considered on the outskirts since it was two to three kilometers away, so there should be considerably less zombies and abandoned cars along the way. Therefore, with less traffic blocking the roads, traveling by car was a feasible idea. With the team members traveling by car to Green Pao Bay, it would be a lot more efficient. Since the group was only as fast as the slowest person.

In addition, if they didn’t drive, then the players would end up as mules for the resources. Everyone was biased towards having a car to drive around.

As the night sky drew closer, the group would have its first night together. Just like before, with a surplus of food, Liu Gan didn't place a food portion restriction so the large group of 40 could enjoy a good feast.

Hopefully through this feast, the new and old members could slowly get used to each other. In the process, there would be many minor habits and misunderstanding. Many of these issues were resolved by the squad leaders so the troubles never reached Liu Gan.

Resolving these conflicts were rather easy. All that the squad leaders had to say was ‘if the members don't resolve the issue soon and Elder Liu was in a bad mood, he might act irrationally. By that time someone might end up losing a limb or two’. Upon hearing this, any of the rebellious new players joining the group would definitely think twice before acting.

...

Upon the second day, Zhang ShengLi went along with Zheng Lin and a few members to scout the road ahead. The purpose of their trip was to confirm the three vehicles that had been stashed in the warehouse was still there and operable. Once they had confirmed that it was still in good shape, they reported back to Liu Gan. The group then packed up to get ready to move headquarters.

Zhang ShengLi, Wang DeCheng, Han GuangMing and Zhang Hua were responsible for clearing obstacles in their path ahead. In the middle of the pack were players pushing bicycles that were filled with food packages. The players that were pushing shopping carts had bulkier objects like rice bags in the carts. Then there were the remaining human mules, who had to carry food rations and a variety of day-to-day products in their backpacks. Of course, Liu Gan and Yin He had duties as rear guard.

With four Level 5 players, the level of safety clearly increased significantly. Their attitudes toward regular zombies had changed, as the front line could easily deal with it.

With so many human mules transporting cargos, Liu Gan was able to finally relax and casually move around. He didn’t have to personally scout or carry his own bag. He only needed to be ready to use his power to ensure the safety of his group at a moment’s notice.

So anything trivial that could be handled by the four Level 5 players, wouldn’t need to be bothered by Liu Gan.
