Chapter 61 Warships

Wang Zeyu and Li Meng nodded repeatedly.

Soon, their conversation was interrupted by a faint sound from the fire door.

"Is there someone else?" Zhou Yan squinted, looking outside the door.

"Ah! That's Wang Youde! He didn't go back after receiving his food; he wanted to lend a hand here..." Li Meng explained.

"Lend a hand? What kind of help?"

"Wang Zeyu's girlfriend, Zhang Dongxue, suggested that the girls see if they could help make more landing nets and fishing nets... Wang Youde has very nimble hands. This brother... this sister..."

For a moment, Li Meng couldn't find the perfect term to address him.

"This Old Wang! This Old Wang is amazing; his needlework is top-notch! He volunteered to help..."

"Nonsense! Are you comfortable letting those girls be alone with him?"

"No!" Wang Zeyu quickly interjected to smooth things over.

"They're right next to Wu Yang! Since Wu Yang is just sitting there motionless anyway, they just tied the netting they were weaving to the stick in his hand... It makes it easier for them to weave..."

Zhou Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

"Remember, unless you have a gun in your hand, never easily be alone with them!"

Zhou Yan knew deeply what the temptation of food meant to those who had been hungry for so long during this period!

They were capable of doing anything!

Zhou Yan was currently standing with his back to the window. He watched as Li Meng and Wang Zeyu, who were in front of him, looked towards the distance behind him, their eyes widening in horror.

The hair on the back of Zhou Yan's neck stood up instantly!

He rolled on the ground and pulled out the sniper rifle!

He turned around, crouched halfway, and set up the sniper rifle!

"What the... f*ck!"

"Oh my..."

Outside the window, the rain was pouring, and the distant buildings could only be vaguely seen as outlines, but...

Further away... a massive silver-gray silhouette was looming in the darkness!

"That is..."

"Damn it! A Warship has sailed all the way inland???"

Zhou Yan looked at the image in the scope in disbelief.

Is that? A close-in weapon system?

A close-in weapon system that fires ten thousand rounds per minute?

F*ck!

The silver-gray Warship appeared particularly grim and abrupt against the light gray sky.

Its bow held high, breaking through the murky waves, sailing toward the city's inner bay at a very slow speed.

What made Zhou Yan's heart tremble the most was the menacing multi-barrel close-in weapon system on the bridge!

Even through the rain, it exuded a chilling metallic luster.

Zhou Yan could even see people on the deck!

But the distance was too great; he could only vaguely see a few figures moving on the deck, as well as some raised objects covered by tarpaulins...

Zhou Yan's heart began to beat uncontrollably and violently. The appearance of such a state-level machine of violence held ambiguous meaning for this already chaotic waterway.

The probability of it being a rescue mission was far too low.

The terrain of Qingyang City wasn't low, yet the water level had still reached about the 6th Floor!

How deep was the water in other low-lying areas?

Even if it were a rescue, where would so many people be relocated?

Was it to rebuild order? Or was it something higher-level, an irresistible plunder?

"Big Brother? Are these military personnel?" Wang Zeyu's voice trembled with a tone full of incredulous hope.

"Not necessarily! If it were the military, this ship wouldn't be so sneaky!" Li Meng frowned, squinting and trying his best to look.

The direction it was sailing wasn't toward the densely populated city center at all; instead, it was staying far away from these residential buildings?

Was it looking for a suitable mooring point?

Besides, if it were a rescue, why were there no broadcasts, no signal flares, and why did it just sail in so quietly?

Plus! A Warship is simply not suitable for carrying out rescue missions!

A Warship, a Warship; that's a vessel used by the military for fighting!

Zhou Yan slowly lowered the sniper rifle, took a deep breath of the damp air smelling of rain, and forced himself to calm down.

The apocalypse had been going on for some time. If a well-organized military force had survived and launched a rescue, it would never be done in this manner.

The appearance of this Warship seemed more like an independent armed force with a clear objective entering this "no-man's land."

"Regardless of what they are here for, it's not necessarily a good thing for us." Zhou Yan said in a low voice, his gaze sweeping over Li Meng and Wang Zeyu.

"Our stronghold, our supplies, and all of us are as fragile as paper in front of this level of power! Damn it, once that close-in weapon system fires, the entire building could be torn apart!"

"Wang Zeyu! Take your binoculars and your girlfriend. Both of you go to the 11th Floor and take turns observing that ship with the binoculars. Be very careful! As soon as they make any move, notify me immediately via the walkie-talkie!"

"Li Meng, you go back to the 11th Floor with Wang Zeyu and turn off the generators for both our homes! Don't let them discover the lights on our side!"

Zhou Yan's hand holding the gun tightened involuntarily. Zhuang Yan was too important to him...

He had to think of a way...

"Damn!"

Zhou Yan suddenly slapped his forehead. Since Zhuang Yan couldn't come over for the time being, Zhou Yan could just go over there!

Why struggle so hard...

Thinking of this, he immediately turned and returned to the 11th Floor.

At home, Su Yanqiu had already heated up the food. Several women were gathered around the kitchen island, clearly living quite comfortably.

Eating while watching a movie on the tablet.

Zhou Yan walked to the balcony and turned off the generator.

Su Yanqiu noticed that something was not quite right.

"What's wrong?" Su Yanqiu put down her chopsticks and asked with a worried look.

"There is a Warship in the distance attempting to approach... but it's unclear right now if it's a military ship."

Su Yanqiu was very intelligent and immediately understood the underlying meaning in Zhou Yan's words.

It was definitely a Warship, but whether the people on it were still "military personnel" was uncertain...

Zhou Yan reached out and pulled Su Yanqiu into his arms.

He gently planted a kiss on Su Yanqiu's forehead.

[Open all blind boxes!]

[Calculating item details...]

[Obtained: Lock picking tools * 1]

[Obtained: Saline soda * 5 (cases)]

[Obtained: Glock G18 (60 rounds of spare ammo)]

[Obtained: Ultra-thin leak-proof pads * 10 (boxes)]

[Obtained: Ultra-thin 0.1 * 9 (boxes)]

"?" Zhou Yan.

Where is the lucky blind box?

Didn't they say consecutive draws trigger a lucky blind box?

So this actually still relies on probability?

F*ck!

Helplessly, Zhou Yan took out the pistol, along with the spare ammunition, and handed them to Su Yanqiu.

Su Yanqiu's cold and beautiful face was stunned for a moment.

"We have a rifle..."

"Not enough!"

Zhou Yan shook his head. He currently had zero sense of security.

He had developed a severe case of fear of insufficient firepower...

Su Yanqiu didn't act coy and immediately put the gun away.

Her soft, boneless little hands wrapped around Zhou Yan's waist...

"Are you... going out again?"

"Don't worry, I will come back from time to time. I'll use the curtains at home as a signal. If there's any trouble at home, pull open the curtains immediately, and I can be home in ten seconds!"

Listening to the conversation between the two, the other women didn't continue eating or distracting themselves; they all gathered around with worried looks.

Zhou Yan felt helpless and could only reach out and hug them one by one.

When hugging Bai Qi, Zhou Yan bit her tender earlobe.

"If you notice anyone with ill intentions, tell your sister Qiu first, okay?"

Bai Qi blushed and nodded.

She gathered her courage and gave Zhou Yan a forceful kiss on the lips before letting go.

The Warship in the distance couldn't possibly sail directly into the residential complex. The Warship had a deep draft, and there were low-rise buildings in the complex...

Besides, Building 17 was in front of Building 16, so Zhou Yan could see every move of the Warship.

Just as he was about to turn and find a dark corner, his clothes were tugged by a small hand.

Zhou Yan turned around and saw it was Zhang Yajing.

She looked like she had something to say...
