Chapter 1577: Helping Out

Many of the buildings on both sides of the street have shown signs of decay, and their walls are like the faces of weathered old men, covered with mottled marks carved by time and disasters.

Where the wall paint has fallen off, the rough bricks and stones inside are exposed, as if silently telling the vicissitudes of the end of the world.

Occasionally a few pedestrians hurried past, their figures dim in the darkness.

Although the base was in relatively good condition, there was still an indelible sense of vigilance and fatigue in their eyes.

Their footsteps were hurried, as if driven by invisible pressure. It seemed that if they were not careful, they would break this seemingly calm appearance and bring about unknown troubles.

Before they knew it, Li Luo and the other three arrived at the edge of the base.

This is completely different from the direction they entered the base from, it is the back of the base.

The scene before them made their hearts sink.

A tall wall stood before our eyes. It was built with various discarded materials piled up randomly and was uneven.

The bricks and stones on the wall seemed like they would fall off at any time, revealing the mottled dirt and broken debris inside.

The walls were covered with sharp objects, the broken steel bars were like ferocious fangs, and the broken glass bottles were flashing an eerie light under the dim and flickering lights, as if sending a silent but powerless warning to the outside world.

Outside the wall, the darkness was like a dormant beast waiting to devour its prey, with its deep, bloody mouth open and emitting a chilling breath, as if it would devour everything in front of it in the next second.

If you listen carefully, you can vaguely catch the creepy roar of the zombies, like countless evil spirits roaring in the dark abyss, which makes people shudder.

There were shadows in the darkness, as if there were countless pairs of greedy eyes hiding, watching every move within the wall.

Lu Jingcheng stared at the darkness outside the wall, his expression becoming more and more solemn, and he was the first to break the silence:

"You see, the defense here is too weak. This wall looks tall and intimidating, but it is actually shaky. Once a large-scale zombie tide comes, it will be breached in an instant."

Li Luo crossed his arms, his eyes full of doubt, and said:

"It's really strange. How could such a crudely made defense have lasted until now in the apocalypse? Could it be that this base is extremely lucky and has never experienced a large-scale zombie tide?"

Chu Yuanqing frowned, thought for a moment and said:

"Maybe it happened before, but it was not on a large scale, or they have some hidden means that we just haven't discovered yet."

Shi Xinxin looked at the wall with a worried look on her face, her eyes full of uneasiness, and said anxiously:

"You see, this place is too dangerous. How about we help them reinforce the wall? If the zombies really attack, the wall won't be able to hold up."

Lu Jingcheng nodded slightly and agreed:

"I think it's okay. With our strength, reinforcing the wall isn't a difficult task. Let's just consider it as helping out."

Li Luo crossed his arms and raised the corners of his mouth slightly:

"Okay, it really isn't a big deal to us. Taking some time to reinforce it will also make us feel more secure tonight."

Chu Yuanqing grinned and rubbed his hands:

"No problem, if we all work together, we can get it done quickly."

The four of them acted promptly and got to work.

Lu Jingcheng and Li Luo looked at each other and understood each other. Both of them possessed gold-related abilities, so the responsibility of reinforcing the wall naturally fell on their shoulders.

Shi Xinxin and Chu Yuanqing were also not vague. They quickly dispersed and concentrated on looking for possible loopholes along the wall so that they could inform Li Luo and Lu Jingcheng in time so that they could quickly repair them.

Lu Jingcheng strode towards the wall with a solemn expression, his palms firmly placed on the wall.

He slowly closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and instantly restrained the aura around his body, immersing himself in a state of high concentration.

As his mental power became highly concentrated, the gold-based supernatural power surged through his body like a mighty torrent of energy.
