Chapter 1099: Chapter 1087

"This is going to be a troublesome task! The snow is so heavy, the car can’t drive, and there’s no nearby place where we can gather speakers, this..." Old Lin sighed lightly, tapping his fingers in frustration.

"Xiao Li, if it’s not formal audio equipment, can you guys make it sound?" Wang Zhongyu suddenly spoke up.

Hearing this, Li Zhong turned his face: "What do you mean? I’m not quite sure what you’re saying."

"Uh..." Wang Zhongyu thought for a moment: "What I mean is... if we take the speakers off the car, can you make them sound?"

"Car!?" Almost in unison, not just the "Zhong" brothers, but others also showed astonishment.

Undoubtedly, everyone was surprised by Wang Zhongyu’s idea.

It’s no wonder; people’s thinking always has limitations. In this case, what comes to mind are mostly speakers or audio equipment, so when Wang Zhongyu mentioned taking speakers from the car, it was unexpected.

However, that’s not the point. The point is whether this idea will work.

"How about it? Xiao Li, can Zhongyu’s idea work?"

"As long as the speakers themselves aren’t damaged, there shouldn’t be a problem."

"Great!" With a slap on his thigh, Old Lin jumped up: "There are cars in the school from last time. We left in a hurry and didn’t grab them. If we go over, we should be able to get intact car speakers."

"But Old Lin, even if it’s not far, without a car to carry us, walking there..." Shaking his head, Old Zhao didn’t believe this method would work.

"I know, it’s definitely tough. But with the current weather conditions, we don’t have many choices." If there were a better option, Lin Junfu wouldn’t have suggested this. It was a desperate move.

"Don’t worry about this, Old Zhao. I’ll head out with Little Duan and them now. We can be back by noon tomorrow at the latest, no problem." Traversing the snow is undoubtedly challenging, but for Hua Biao and the others, it’s not much.

"Just the three of you?"

"That’s enough!"

"We know you’re capable, but you’re well aware of the situation at school. Although the last corpse-drawing action led most zombies from the campus to the kiln, there are still remnants mingling there. If you go and get noticed by those creatures, without a vehicle, the danger is enormous."

"That’s right! Hua Zi, we don’t doubt your abilities, but this trip is too risky. We can’t..."

"Old Lin, Uncle Zhao!" Shen Lian stepped forward and said sternly, "We appreciate everyone’s concern, but Old Xu and Lei Zi are trapped outside. Right now, we don’t have a better plan. The weather outside is unpredictable. If we wait any longer, and the commander runs out of food, even if the weather clears up later, it will be meaningless."

"Indeed, without venturing into the tiger’s den, how can you catch the tiger cub? Our brothers in the Sharp Blade Company have faced death or gone missing in this apocalypse. Only a few of us are left. The commander is in trouble, how can we stay at home comfortably?"

"Exactly! We must go on this trip! Old Zhao, don’t worry too much. Our Sharp Blade Company has always dealt with dangerous tasks. We won’t act recklessly. If, when we arrive, zombies block the path, we’ll retreat."

One after another, Hua Biao, Duan Chengwu, and Shen Lian spoke up. From their resolved attitudes, it was clear they were determined to go to school to have a look.

Hearing this, Zhao Yunhai and Lin Junfu exchanged glances, fully aware of the risks.

They really wanted to stop them, but at the moment, they couldn’t think of a reason.

No choice; there was only this plan.

If they miss this opportunity, it might jeopardize rescuing Old Xu.

On one hand was the rescue of Old Xu; on the other hand was the safety of the Sharp Blade trio.

Considering either side inevitably puts the other in crisis.

This wasn’t the situation Old Zhao or Old Lin wanted to see.

Imagining if Hua Biao and the others met misfortune on this outing, how would they explain it to Old Xu once he’s rescued?

Considering all this, Zhao Yunhai and Lin Junfu were momentarily speechless, and the atmosphere became tense.

There had to be a conclusion; maintaining silence would not solve the problem.

Tang Xiaoquan thought for a moment, realizing that aside from Hua Biao and the others, there was really no one else capable of walking tens of kilometers in this harsh weather to gather supplies outside.

Who would have thought this place would be so desolate? When they chose this location, they were focused on the fact that it had nothing, and now this advantage was...

This is probably the so-called advantage having disadvantages.

"Uncle Zhao, Old Lin, since Hua Zi and the others have already made up their minds, I don’t think we can stop them. Instead, we should agree with them. This matter should be done sooner rather than later."

"The phrase ’sooner rather than later’ awakened Lin Junfu.

Time is limited and cannot be delayed.

Even though the school might have cars to dismantle, it’s not a hundred percent usable.

Even if it is hundred percent usable, it doesn’t mean Hua Biao and the others can smoothly enter.

Therefore, it’s crucial to confirm the situation at the school as soon as possible. If the collection there fails, they would still have time to discuss a new plan.

With this thought, Old Lin sighed lightly and reluctantly nodded: "Alright! At this stage, there’s no point in being overly cautious. Okay! I’ll agree with you three. But there’s something I must say beforehand."

"Whatever you have to say, Old Lin, go ahead."

"It’s simple, as long as you remember why you’re going. Your goal is to rescue Old Xu and the others. If the situation is urgent, do not take risks! We still need you for future rescue missions. If anything happens to you, I don’t need to say more!!" Old Lin stressed seriously.

"Of course, that’s definite. As I’ve said earlier, we won’t act recklessly. We know what to do."

"Good! I believe warriors from the Sharp Blade Company can distinguish the situation. Since you’re going, you need to be properly equipped. You can’t just go with what you have." Old Lin pointed at the equipment in Hua Biao’s hands with a smile.

"Take this!" Taking out the 64 from his body, Old Lin threw it on the table.

Hua Biao glanced at it but didn’t reach out: "No need, Old Lin, keep it for yourselves. I’ve got equipment on me, and it won’t be needed on this trip."

No matter how urgent or difficult, the safety of the base must always be guarded.

Hua Biao, being born a soldier, knows this well.

Therefore, the gun Old Lin offered couldn’t be taken, because there’s no guarantee that during this snowstorm, no one will take advantage to attack.

Plus, once he, Duan Chengwu, and Shen Lian leave, the combat power at the base diminishes. Taking guns would just...

Hua Biao refused, and Old Lin didn’t insist. After a simple sorting, the three embarked on the journey.
