Chapter 5 Potential Enemies
Chapter 5 Potential Enemies
"What an idiot! These giant wolves have just disappeared, and he dares to run away. He doesn't even have a brain."
Wang Ce narrowed his eyes when he saw Yang Miao holding a rubber baton and leading a group of people out in the surveillance footage.
Behind this group of people was Zhao Erde, the workshop supervisor of Xinke Plastics Factory. They seemed to be making a big fuss, as if they were about to come and cause trouble.
"roar!"
Just as this group of people emerged, five giant wolves suddenly sprang out from their blind spot, moving with incredible speed and pouncing on the three of them in the blink of an eye.
"Those giant wolves haven't left yet, hurry back!"
"Run! Run! It's terrifying!"
"Don't close the door! We haven't gone in yet, Zhao Erde! You fucking bastard, you just wait!"
As soon as the workers from Xinhui Plastics Factory entered, workshop supervisor Zhao Erde immediately closed the door, while Yang Miao and others outside began to curse loudly.
People possess tremendous explosive power when faced with dire circumstances, which enabled Yang Miao to lead more than a dozen people into another building.
"That bastard is incredibly lucky to be alive; it's such a pity he didn't die."
When Zhang Luoyan and Wang Ce came downstairs, they saw Huang Feipeng carrying a steel pipe and looking outside warily.
"Manager Zhang, the barbed wire has been pulled out, and there are many sharp blades hanging on it."
A worker took out a sample section of wire mesh and handed it to Zhang Luoyan for quality testing.
Zhang Luoyan inspected the quality of the barbed wire and nodded, saying, "Produce it in batches according to this quality, and put barbed wire around all the places where infiltration is possible."
The automatic lathes produced very quickly. Before dusk, the entire factory was covered with wire mesh inlaid with sharp blades, covering every accessible area.
The windows on the first floor were all sealed with steel plates, the windows on the second floor were sealed with steel bars, and the windows on the third floor haven't been sealed yet; they'll be sealed tomorrow.
The yard in front of the factory wasn't big; it was already quite full with a large truck and four cars parked there.
Under Wang Ce's command, all five vehicles were put to good use.
If an enemy were to invade, they would definitely have to run up from the first floor, so the key defensive points were all positioned with the front of the vehicle facing directly towards them.
Firstly, it allows you to directly turn on the headlights to observe the situation; secondly, in case of an emergency, you can step on the gas and drive into the car.
The car windows were also fitted with steel strips, which looked a bit ugly, but made them safer.
At night, the sentry duty is done in groups of five, with each group standing guard for one hour, for a total of forty-one people. Excluding Zhang Luoyan, there are exactly eight groups.
However, Zhang Luoyan insisted on participating in the troop deployment and sharing the hardships with everyone, so she was added to Wang Ce's group.
"Slurp—"
A mouthful of hot, braised instant noodles, paired with a chicken and starch sausage, is simply divine.
Wang Ce finished all the soup from the instant noodles, while Huang Feipeng and Zhang Luoyan beside him also ate with great relish.
Instant noodles taste even better when you're hungry.
"With the water and power outages, our electricity supply can't last long. Once we get through the initial phase, we'll have to start conserving electricity."
"The food crisis is our biggest survival problem. There are forty people in the factory. Even if we eat very sparingly, the supplies we have taken from the supermarket will not last more than ten days."
Zhang Luoyan sucked the condiments off the instant noodle fork, her delicate face glowing faintly in the moonlight.
"Tomorrow we'll make some cold weapons, and then send out elite squads to hunt wild beasts and gather fruits and vegetables."
"Actually, I also saw it. The strength of those giant wolves wasn't particularly outrageous. The reason we felt they were so strong was because they displayed strength beyond their size, which had a psychological impact on our perception."
"No matter how strong these giant wolves are, can they be stronger than an elephant?"
Huang Feipeng tore open the instant noodle cup and licked the remaining noodles clean. He was a big guy and didn't have enough to eat, only eating one bowl of instant noodles a day. Now he was starving.
"You two are oversimplifying things. Our real enemy isn't the ferocious beasts outside, but our own kind!"
Wang Ce's gaze never left the electric retractable gate. It wasn't that he was overly vigilant, but rather that there was a gold label marked "meat sausage" in the building opposite, which was too eye-catching.
I need to find a way to get out and explore in order to further understand the role of the gold-level terms.
He accompanied Zhang Luoyan today, running around the factory. Apart from the meat sausage that kept appearing, he hadn't found a second entry yet.
"Brother Ce, you mean that bastard Yang Miao? If he dares to come any closer, I'll beat him so badly his own mother wouldn't recognize him!"
Huang Feipeng jumped off the truck, still feeling unsatisfied, and threw the torn instant noodle bucket into the trash can. Now that the defensive fortifications were mostly completed, it wouldn't be easy for large creatures to sneak in.
Zhang Luoyan's gaze was calm. Her long legs were draped over the truck window. She casually tossed the instant noodle bucket in a beautiful arc, and it landed precisely in the trash can from the truck.
Huang Feipeng, who was climbing back onto the truck, was stunned for a moment; she had really pulled it off.
"Our industrial park has chemical plants, plastics plants, electronics plants, mold factories, and bag factories. If everyone cooperates, there will definitely be better development."
"I don't think our enemies will be our own kind. No one who can be a boss is stupid. Because of the distribution of profits, it's inevitable that small groups will exist. But among these small groups, cooperation is the most likely approach."
Huang Feipeng nodded in agreement with Zhang Luoyan's analysis, but Wang Ce shook his head.
"The giant wolves in the park during the day have a problematic attitude towards humans. Have you ever heard of 'a donkey running out of tricks'?"
"There were no donkeys in Guizhou. Someone brought donkeys into the country. The tiger was initially afraid of the donkey because of its huge size. After testing it, it found that the donkey could only kick. In the end, the tiger killed the donkey."
"Even tigers will test their prey when faced with unfamiliar creatures, so how could these giant wolves, who know how to cooperate, simply rush into the park and eat people?"
"If I'm not mistaken, these giant wolves had already come into contact with humans before us, which means that there are other wolves of their kind who experienced the sinkhole event even earlier, not far from us!"
Huang Feipeng was quite excited after hearing Wang Ce's analysis, and said happily, "This is a good thing. Many hands make light work. We brought so much equipment and resources, so we can trade with them."
Zhang Luoyan frowned slightly. She knew more. If there were others like her who had experienced the sinkhole incident earlier, perhaps they had already mastered the extraordinary.
Once encountered, the possibility of cooperation is very low, and the most likely outcome is plunder.
"We can no longer afford to be passive. Tomorrow we must take the initiative, hunt down the giant wolves, and see what makes these creatures so different."
Zhang Luoyan quickly made a judgment, and Wang Ce breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, this woman was smart; if it were someone else, they might not have understood his hidden meaning.
He must go out and explore the world with his ability to identify golden entries; otherwise, it would be a waste to keep identifying so-called "meat sausages" all day.
When a crisis strikes, we can't possibly rely on so-called meat sausages to defend ourselves, can we?
"Brother Ce, wake up! There are airplanes everywhere outside."
The next day, Wang Ce was shaken up by Huang Feipeng. They had already traveled through time, so where did the plane come from?
Opening his eyes and looking out the window, Huang Feipeng was right; there were indeed airplanes everywhere outside.
"It's a remote-controlled airplane from a toy factory, not a drone. It doesn't even have a camera. Who would be playing with a remote-controlled airplane for no reason? Are they using it to pass notes?"
"Holy crap, there's a swarm of mosquitoes the size of watermelons behind me?!"
