Chapter 20 Enemies Meet on a Narrow Road
Chapter 20 Enemies Meet on a Narrow Road
As night fell, a cold wind rose again, and a layer of fog formed on the windshield.
On the wasteland, the remaining players dared not continue their sprint, maintaining a steady pace and increasing the power of the heater.
Visibility is poor at night, and sprinting at high speed can easily lead to accidents.
If you accidentally run into a horde of zombies, you'll have no choice but to quit the game.
"This awful world, it's so hot during the day and so cold at night, the temperature difference between day and night is just too big."
Gu Xin piloted the helicopter to land from the sky. The temperature at high altitude was too low, and the fuel consumption was too high.
"It's been like this since the first night; the engine is about to be scrapped."
Chen Da gnawed on a red sausage, his face full of complaints.
Gu Xin looked around and confirmed that there were no zombies or players nearby. Moreover, the terrain was flat and open, with an unobstructed view, so if any enemies appeared, they would be spotted at a glance.
"This place is open, we won't be ambushed. Let's rest for a bit. You watch the first half of the night, and I'll watch the second half?"
"it is good."
Chen Da nodded.
The two then switched places.
Chen Da sat in the driver's seat, ready to take off at any moment.
Gu Xin then went to the rear cabin, lay down on the seat, and soon began to snore.

...
"laugh!"
The aroma of fresh steak, when placed on a scorching hot iron pan, explodes instantly and fills the nostrils.
The aroma of oil and meat intertwines, complemented by a touch of rosemary and garlic cloves, creating an even more complex flavor profile.
Zeng Wanqing flipped the meat over, somewhat emotionally, "If we weren't in a car and outside in the wasteland, I wouldn't believe we're in a post-apocalyptic world. This food is better than before I transmigrated."
Even if you say that, I won't give you an extra bite.
Yang Che said calmly.
"???"
Zeng Wanqing glared at him, huffing and puffing. Who would want your piece of meat?
Yang Che glanced at her sideways and said, "Then give me a bigger piece of meat."
Zeng Wanqing stopped talking and focused on grilling the meat.
The only sound inside the driver's cab was the constant sizzling of roasting meat.
A moment later,
The barbecue was ready. Zeng Wanqing moved the grill away, cut the barbecue into pieces with scissors, and was about to hand it to Yang Che.
"Put everything in the back, fasten your seatbelt, and don't put your cutlery in front of you."
Yang Che suddenly spoke in a deep voice, his expression becoming extremely serious.
Without the slightest hesitation, Zeng Wanqing decisively unplugged the power cord and put all the pots and pans behind her.
He quickly fastened his seatbelt, and even in his busy schedule, he managed to stuff a piece of steak into his mouth.
"What happened?"
She asked vaguely.
There were no zombies or third-tier strange creatures in sight.
"There's a helicopter ahead."
Yang Che said coldly.
"A helicopter? A player?"
"It's that Li Zhuchong!"
"Do you have a grudge against him?"
Zeng Wanqing suddenly remembered that Li Zhuchong seemed to be the first player to upgrade his vehicle to Lv.3 and even obtained the unique achievement, which was announced throughout the entire region.
Only after that did Yang Che contact her to buy steel.
"I think even in this world, there aren't many people who start with a helicopter."
Yang Che didn't answer directly, but instead said something that seemed to have nothing to do with it.
"Definitely. If everything is tied to airplanes, then zombies and weird creatures become useless. It won't be road survival anymore, it will be air survival."
Zeng Wanqing nodded, expressing her strong agreement.
She has only awakened one "Bensang", and some people have even bound themselves to rocking cars. If there were hundreds or thousands of planes, it would be too unfair.
Yang Che kept his eyes fixed ahead, pressed down on the accelerator with his foot, and pressed the pedal even lower.
Rumble!
The heavy truck engine roared, and its speed rapidly increased.
"I encountered a triangular nail chain before. If my heavy truck hadn't been upgraded, that one incident would have been enough to ruin the truck's tires."
"In a place like this, without tires, my heavy truck is just an iron coffin, and I'm sure to die."
Yang Che stared intently ahead, his speed still increasing.
"Was it a trap set by that helicopter?"
Zeng Wanqing asked.
"You'll only know once you get close."
Even though it was just a fleeting glance, Yang Che still remembered the shape of that plane.
The only Lv.3 helicopter in the entire area, it is entirely green with two black stripes on its tail.
boom!
The ground began to shake slightly, and a deafening roar of engines erupted.
Chen Da was startled and quickly looked to the side.
A dark shadow appeared in the distance, moving at an incredible speed, as if it had shrunk to an inch. Just moments ago it was a tiny black dot, but in the blink of an eye, its outline was clearly visible.
"Gu Xin! Gu Xin! You fucking get out of bed right now!"
Chen Da roared and frantically operated the helicopter, causing it to gain altitude on the spot.
"What are you doing?"
Gu Xin was woken up and, still grumpy from being woken up, asked angrily.
"That heavy truck is back for revenge!"
Chen Da knew perfectly well that the black heavy truck was coming for them.
"What are you afraid of? Just increase the altitude, and he can't do anything to us."
Gu Xin didn't care at all.
The advantage of helicopters is that they can take off directly from the spot, unlike other aircraft that need to taxi and accelerate.
Other vehicles, whether heavy trucks or tanks, no matter how powerful, can only dominate on the roads.
There's simply no way to deal with helicopters.
Flying in the sky, one is inherently invincible.
"It's about to take off."
Zeng Wanqing shouted a reminder that she could now clearly see the helicopter.
"Want to fly?"
Yang Che sneered, "Aim the turret."
hum!
The roof-mounted turret rotated rapidly, aiming the cannon at the helicopter and predicting its flight path.
"emission!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
One after another, shells flew out, accompanied by a piercing sound as they pierced through the void, striking in an instant.
"Watch out! There's a cannon!"
Upon hearing the sound, Gu Xin quickly shouted a reminder.
Chen Da frantically controlled the plane, trying to dodge the shells through the gaps.
boom!
He luckily dodged the first two shells, but the last one hit the tail rotor, which exploded on the spot.
The helicopter spun at low altitude. Chen Da's face turned pale as he struggled to control it and land the helicopter smoothly.
The helicopter scraped the ground, sending sparks flying, but eventually landed smoothly.
Before Chen Da could even catch his breath, Gu Xin had already climbed into the passenger seat and started operating the turret.
"Pull the lever to change direction."
"How can you change direction before takeoff? Aren't you afraid of it exploding?!"
Chen Da roared.
"It can't fly, but it can briefly lift off the ground and make minor adjustments to its direction. At this angle, the turret can't aim at the enemy."
"good!"
Chen Da didn't dare to waste any words and quickly adjusted the control stick. The helicopter took off and then quickly fell back down, making close contact with the ground and causing a violent tremor.
Fortunately, they eventually managed to get back on track.
hum!
The ear-piercing roar grew louder and louder, and the colossal beast in the darkness finally revealed its ferocious face.
"That's him!"
"fire!"
Gu Xin activated the weapon, and the machine gun fired wildly, the bullets raining down like a storm, engulfing the heavy truck.
"Don't think you're the only one with a chain gun, you bastard!"
He had barely finished speaking when his eyes widened again.
"impossible!!"
