Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus-Chapter 1249 - 762: Population Breakthrough!

In the past two days, Li Yu conducted an inventory check at the base and instructed Bai Jie and the others to produce an enhanced version of the Zombie Attraction Potion again.

Kong Shuang also listed some raw materials needed and gave the list to Li Yu. After reviewing it, Li Yu copied the list to Second Uncle and asked him to release a mission for many collaborators and extra staff to search for it.

One of the main tasks is to collect oil.

It's really hard to find now as most of it has been scavenged.

Li Yu remembered the people from a small oil settlement who recently came from the north. What a coincidence.

Robbing oil and dealing with Guan Zhongjin could be merged into one task.

......

At noon on this day.

Li Yu was in the duty room, watching Li Yuan, who was munching on snacks like a little hamster, and said helplessly, "Yuanzi, look at how fat you've become. I even heard someone call you Little White Pig, and you're still eating."

"Little White Pig?" Li Yuan widened her eyes and said angrily, "Who said that?"

Li Hang was enjoying the commotion on the side and said to Li Yuan, "Hahaha, a nimble fatty."

Li Yuan stood up and punched Li Hang, her eyes blazing with anger.

"Li Hang, you're already a father, how can you still be so immature? Acting like a little kid. Hmph!"

Li Hang smirked and mocked, "Only kids gobble snacks."

"Ahhhhh! Big brother, control second brother, he called me a nimble fatty."

Li Yuan was on the verge of breaking down. Her naturally round face, with a bit of baby fat, now looked a bit chubbier.

"He's right," Li Yu said with a smile.

Li Yuan stomped her foot and looked at Li Yu and Li Hang, saying, "I'm going to tell Dad that you two are bullying me, with no sense of being brothers at all!"

After saying this, she turned to leave the room.

But after a few steps, she hurried back to grab the snacks on the table and dashed out.

"Hahaha." Watching this scene, Li Yu laughed.

Feeling inexplicably happy.

In the doomsday, under the harsh environment, everyone becomes very realistic and shrewd, thinking every day about how to survive.

Simple-minded people can't survive in this doomsday.

But in the Big Camphor Tree Base, under the protection of Li Yu and others, Li Yuan could still maintain a bit of innocence, which made Li Yu feel that his efforts were meaningful.

Li Yuan's innocence is not foolish innocence, but rather she can let down her guard in front of family members like Li Yu.

She manages part of the warehouse authority and has been doing a great job.

Nowadays, everyone calls her Little Stingy, as she tightly controls the in-and-out of many items.

Li Yu felt reassured seeing her work ethic and thus entrusted her more with the management.

Suddenly, the walkie-talkie on the table buzzed, "This is Zhuzi, calling Big Camphor Tree Base, Director Li, they've returned from Guang City and are now in Gan City."

Hearing this, Li Yu's face lit up with joy.

He quickly responded, "Alright, I've got it. Keep me updated on their distance."

Then he switched to another channel, contacted Second Uncle and Uncle, and informed them that Third Uncle and his group would soon be back.

Everyone was delighted to learn that Third Uncle's group would return soon.

Their return would mark the end of the steel collection mission.

Recently, the weather had gotten increasingly hot, and in May, the temperature had reached 37 degrees.

By noon, it was close to forty degrees.

On the construction site, a mist cooling system was activated, or else, under the scorching sun, people would easily suffer from heatstroke.

The walls were nearly completed, just remaining to wrap up and build a duty room to finish.

Li Yu stepped out of the cool duty room, into the blazing sun, and made his way to Third Outer City for another look at the gate.

Just as Ding Jiu said, he hid all the wiring of the gate inside the walls, completely invisible from the outside.

And after testing, the gate switch was very responsive.

It was very sturdy, with the door fitting the concrete wall seamlessly, hardly any gaps.

Li Yu waited in the duty room and, after lunch, received news from the Xin City outpost that Third Uncle and his group had passed Xin City and would arrive at Big Camphor Tree Base in about a few dozen minutes.

Time flew by like a fleeting horse.

Forty minutes passed quietly.

Second Uncle, Uncle, Father Li, Mother Li, and others went up the wall, staring at the road through the woods, to welcome back Third Uncle and his group.

Rumble—

Amidst the roar of engines, a line of trucks came into view.

Leading the way was the armored camper van carrying Third Uncle's group, followed closely by the tanker trucks driven by Xiao Jun and team.

As they needed to transport several thousand tons of steel in one go, more vehicles were required, so Third Uncle had to bring the tanker trucks along, otherwise refueling would be quite a hassle.

The gate opened. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

Third Uncle and his group entered through the gate, and the trucks, fully loaded with steel, parked neatly.

Li Yu descended from the wall and saw Third Uncle, whom he hadn't met for over twenty days.

"Third Uncle," Li Yu said with a smile, looking at him stepping out of the vehicle.

Third Uncle raised his head, saw Li Yu, and laughed, "Hahaha, I knew it. By the time I returned from this trip, you would surely be back from the Western Alliance. How did it go? Was the situation at the Western Alliance resolved? How effective was the medicine?"

Third Uncle left Big Camphor Tree Base just before Li Yu's return, so he was unaware of the follow-up to Li Yu's visit to the Western Alliance.
