Chapter 72 Sneaking into the Prison

The "unsophisticated" members of the Fire Team were stunned by the actions of the man and the cat.

In order to speed up the process, Li Luo took out a shovel from the space, and covered the shovel with gold energy to make it sharper. Then he handed it to everyone and said:

"Let's dig together, faster."

In this way, the first "excavation team" of the apocalypse was briefly established.

With Potato leading the team in the front, the group dug the tunnel in less than half an hour with almost no effort. They finally passed through the first line of defense of the "Iron Lump" and entered the interior of the prison.

The reason why he didn't dig directly to the innermost part was because Potato sensed the danger inside, so Li Luo decided to just dig up to here.

The current location of the group is the entrance to the second line of defense of the prison. There are several bodies of sentries lying in the sentry rooms on both sides. There are no signs of mutation, and the cause of death is all due to gunshot wounds. It seems that it was done by that group of people.

Afterwards, everyone followed the map provided by the Fire Team members and came to the prison's monitoring room. The monitoring range here was the outside of the prison and the situation here, and it was not connected to the monitoring system inside the prison.

But sometimes when Xinxin, the top hacker, is here, there is no such thing as inside or outside. As long as the equipment is not damaged, she can check the situation inside the prison through the monitoring room here.

However, the opposite happened. The group of people were very careful and destroyed the power system in the monitoring room, making it impossible to turn on the machines.

But this did not pose a problem for Li Luo. She directly took out five outdoor power boxes from the space, looked at Shi Xinxin and asked:

"Is it enough?"

"Enough, enough, that's enough! Wait a moment, I need to take a look first."

Afterwards, everyone found a place to sit down and rest in the monitoring room, waiting for Shi Xinxin to solve the monitoring problem.

Finally having some free time, Lu Jingcheng came and sat down next to Li Luo.

Ever since what happened last night, Li Luo seemed to be avoiding him and never even looked at him, which made Lu Jingcheng very anxious. Now he finally got the chance to talk to Li Luo.

Seeing that Li Luo was resting with his eyes closed, Lu Jingcheng hesitated for a moment and then spoke:

"Comrade Li Luo, thank you. You have helped us a lot again this time."

Lu Jingcheng guessed correctly, Li Luo was avoiding him. She felt that she was too embarrassed yesterday and didn't know how to face the boss, so she simply ignored him.

She noticed when Lu Jingcheng came over just now, so she simply closed her eyes and pretended to be resting, but she didn't expect this guy to be so stubborn and actually came over to talk to her. Seeing that she couldn't pretend anymore, Li Luo continued to close her eyes and said:

"No need to thank me, it's all cooperation, but you won't get any of the crystal cores this time."

Seeing that Li Luo was still paying attention to him, Lu Jingcheng couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, and with a hint of doting in his tone that he himself hadn't noticed, he said:

"Of course. From now on, all the crystal cores will belong to you."

Seeing that Li Luo just nodded and didn't say anything, Lu Jingcheng thought she was really tired, so he spoke again:

"Leave the rest to me. You should have a good rest. You've worked hard."

After hearing what Lu Jingcheng said, Li Luo felt that the boss must not have noticed his abnormality yesterday. It seemed that he was overthinking it. Then, the uncomfortable feeling disappeared.

Just as he was about to speak, Shi Xinxin's voice came from not far away:

"Okay, everyone come and take a look!"

Everyone was shocked by Shi Xinxin's work efficiency.

"So fast?"

"If those guys hadn't destroyed the power system, it would have been much faster."

Perhaps because they were in a hurry, the group did not destroy the display in the monitoring room, so this time they finally didn't have to look at those densely packed mini screens anymore.

Everyone came to the surveillance screen and looked carefully, and found that many of the screens were black. Without waiting for everyone to ask, Shi Xinxin explained:

"The black screens are because the surveillance cameras themselves were damaged. I think that was done by that group of people. They must be hiding their whereabouts."

In addition to the zombies in the surveillance footage, they found a place that looked like a cafeteria, with about 200 survivors inside, including prisoners and prison guards.

Because it was night time, they were all resting, and a few of them were guarding the entrances and exits of the cafeteria, probably to prevent any zombie attacks.

Outside the cafeteria, there were many zombie corpses lying down, blocking the corridor.

If people inside want to go out, or people outside want to come in, they have to step over the corpses of these zombies.

According to the map and surveillance footage, they could only learn about the area near the cafeteria and another area where a tide of zombies gathered.

The members of the Fire Team judged that the group of people should have occupied the monitoring room inside the prison, and they might also be observing the situation in these two areas.

There should still be some people in control of the prison's main control room. Their position can be seen from the fact that they did not open the prison gate.

After analyzing the locations of the three groups of people, everyone began to plan the next step.

The zombies are relatively easy to deal with, but that group of foreign forces probably won’t be that easy, so they plan to meet up with the people in the control room first, where they will definitely know some more detailed information.

The surveillance in the control room has also been destroyed, so there is no need to worry about being noticed by the foreign forces.

Several people came to the second line of defense of the prison, which was also a high wall with an electric grid installed on it. Shi Xinxin directly connected the handheld game console to the equipment on the power grid and shut down the power grid after a series of operations.

She then used her special powers to build a ladder made of ice, allowing everyone to successfully climb over the high wall and enter the second line of defense.

What I saw was a ground full of zombies whose crystal cores had been dug out. It seemed that this was done by the group of people when they came in.

The few of them did not stop and headed towards the control room according to the prison map. There were still scattered zombies on the road, but they posed no threat to them.

Arriving at the control room area, everyone walked lightly and observed the area carefully. They discovered that a gunfight had taken place here. There were corpses of various identities lying on the ground, including prison guards, prisoners, and mutated zombies.

The only thing missing was the bodies of the foreign forces. It is possible that they changed their attire and disguised themselves as prison guards or prisoners.

Potato confirmed that there was nothing unusual around. The next step was to figure out how to get in touch with the people in the control room and reunite with them.

Lu Jingcheng came to the door of the control room and saw that the surveillance camera was also damaged. He put his ear to the door and knocked on it gently a few times.

In this way, the knocking continued rhythmically for about three minutes. Finally, there was a response from the other side of the door, and Lu Jingcheng was also responded with a rhythmic knocking sound.

"Is this a secret code?" Li Luo said with some amusement in his heart.
