Chapter 1425: T City in Memory

The group took a short break and prepared to set up camp in the hall.

Li Luo came to a cleared space, turned his wrist slightly, and tents appeared one after another like magic in the seemingly empty space.

These tents are made of special materials and are extremely tough. They can not only effectively block the strong winds and rainstorms from the outside, but also prevent the invasion of mosquitoes and the harm of radiation.

Li Luo distributed the supplies calmly, and everyone who got the tents quickly took action.

Lu Jingcheng and Chu Yuanqing worked in perfect harmony. Lu Jingcheng opened the tent frames one by one, while Chu Yuanqing firmly fixed the ground nails and then laid the moisture-proof mat.

The members of the Fire Team also cooperated smoothly. Lin Hai spread out the tent cloth and Qin Zimo tied the ropes skillfully.

In a short while, several tents were firmly stood in the hall, becoming a temporary safe haven for everyone.

Then, Li Luo took out everyone's food.

"Everyone is tired today, let's eat something to replenish our energy."

As she spoke, she handed out beautifully packaged pre-prepared meals to everyone.

The sweet and sour pork ribs are bright red like fire, like the dawn of hope in the gloomy end of the world.

Each piece of ribs is evenly coated with thick sauce, which has a shiny luster and flows slowly. The texture of the ribs is clearly visible, and the tender meat seems to be full of juice and is about to overflow at any time.

Just this appearance is enough to make people salivate and give rise to endless imaginations about its taste.

Look at the Kung Pao Chicken again, the chicken is cut into even sizes, with a warm luster, and a sense of freshness and tenderness.

The peanuts are plump, with slightly wrinkled skin and an attractive color.

The chicken and peanuts complement each other and appear even more tempting when wrapped in a unique sauce. Before you even put it in your mouth, you can imagine the wonderful feeling of the rich flavors interweaving and colliding in your mouth.

There are also fresh and delicious stir-fried seasonal vegetables, the tender green vegetables seem to be nature’s last gift in the end times.

The leaves are intact and tender, with some crystal water droplets hanging on them, sparkling under the light.

The colors of the vegetables are bright and pure, retaining their original vitality and vigor. Looking at them, it seems as if the tired body and mind have been gently soothed, and re-injected with energy and hope.

These pre-prepared dishes were found by chance in a food processing factory by Li Luo when he was struggling to collect supplies from various places in the early days of the apocalypse.

It is very easy to eat, just soak it in hot water and it is ready to eat.

In that era of extreme electricity scarcity, cooking a hot meal was simply a fantasy, so these pre-prepared meals were rare treasures at the time.

The thing that was most abundant in Li Luo's space was food, so she was not stingy and donated most of it anonymously to the Jinling base.

Today, the Jinling base has basically achieved self-sufficiency in the supply of fresh fruits and vegetables and other ingredients, but meat resources are still scarce and precious.

For this mission, the base specially equipped them with these pre-prepared meat dishes, and the quantity was quite considerable, which was enough to demonstrate the base's high attention to this escort mission and its strong support and generous help to them.

After the food was distributed, everyone started to prepare the pre-prepared dishes.

Chai Yutong took the lead. She raised her hands slightly and used her special powers to condense pure water molecules from the surrounding air.

The water molecules gathered more and more, gradually converging into crystal clear water droplets, and then formed a small stream of water.

She carefully directed the water into a large metal container, making sure there was enough to heat the prepared dishes.

Sun Qi stood aside, and when the water in the container was ready, hot flames emerged from his palms, and the flames jumped and licked the bottom of the container.

As the flame continued to heat, the originally calm water surface began to ripple slightly, gradually heating up and emitting wisps of hot air.

Everyone gathered around the containers, their eyes fixed on the pre-prepared dishes that had not yet been heated.

Shao Guang took a bag of sweet and sour pork ribs, gently tore open the package, placed it in a special heat-resistant container, and then slowly put it into hot water.

Then, Qin Zimo opened the pre-prepared Kung Pao Chicken package and put it into the water.

After a while, the temperature of the hot water caused the packaging of the pre-prepared meal to begin to expand, and the food inside was gradually heated.

As the packages of pre-prepared meals were heated, the aroma wafted out.

The first is the rich and mellow aroma of the sweet and sour spare ribs, which is like an invisible hand gently pulling everyone's olfactory nerves. The fragrance carries a hint of sweetness and burnt aroma, instantly filling the entire space.

Soon after, the unique aroma of Kung Pao Chicken wafted in the air, the scent of chili peppers, peanuts and chicken mixed together to create a unique and tempting aroma.

The fresh aroma of stir-fried seasonal vegetables also slowly overflowed, interspersed between the rich aroma of meat, allowing everyone to feel a moment of relaxation and pleasure in the midst of fatigue and tension, and also looking forward to the delicious food that was about to be eaten.

Everyone sat together and enjoyed the food in this temporary peace. At the same time, a heated discussion ensued about how to successfully cross T City and deal with potential dangers.

Shao Guang was tasting the food while thinking about something. Suddenly, he put down the food in his hand and said:

"Oh, right, I saw quite a few survivors on my way here today. At first, I thought they were poor people who were in dire straits and in urgent need of rescue, after all, most of them were alone and had no team. But as I observed them, I found that although they were alone, they were able to move freely in every corner of the city. Their pace and expressions did not seem like victims fleeing in panic in the apocalypse, but rather like they were used to walking and surviving alone. Moreover, there was not much fear of zombies in their eyes, but more of a kind of alertness and indifference to the surrounding environment. It seemed that they had found their own way to survive."

Li Luo nodded slightly, his eyes full of solemnity:

"I noticed that, too. It seems that the social system of the survivors in City T is far more complicated than we expected."

She paused, her eyes filled with thoughts. "I've heard that there is a special group of people called scavengers. They don't have the protection of the base, and they travel alone in the ruins of this apocalypse, searching for hope of survival like wandering ghosts. I guess the lone survivors we saw today are most likely this kind of people."

After saying this, her mind drifted away, back to her previous life.

In his previous life, Li Luo had never set foot in T City, but had only heard many rumors.

It is said that T City has a bad reputation. Order in the city has collapsed, morality has declined, and dark activities are spreading like a plague.

Trust between people has been shattered to pieces, deception and deception are the norm of survival, and killing each other is also common.
