Wasteland Survivalist: A Scientific Guide to Post-Apocalyptic Survival

Gu Lang moved a plastic stool out of the cave, sat down, and drank a whole bottle of mineral water.

I checked the time; there were only 7 minutes left before the show started.

The saying goes, "Art is an explosion," and he's already getting quite excited to see tonight's show.

When Gu Lang finished eating a Snickers bar and replenished his energy.

The first loudspeaker blared, and screams echoed from the northwest corner throughout the town.

A large number of berserkers were awakened and began to swarm toward the source of the sound.

Dozens of beams of light lit up, and Gu Lang could even hear the sound of motorcycles.

The town hall area was also lit up, but the berserkers did not immediately surge out.

Instead, they gathered in the central square at the entrance.

"As expected, they're an organized group of berserkers. Too bad I have a backup plan..."

Gu Lang glanced at his watch, and then the second speaker went off.

This time, the scream was much sharper and it was a female voice.

This was specially recorded by Gu Lang using the voice changer function of a mobile phone software.

The effect was remarkable; the berserkers, who had been trying to line up, immediately went berserk.

"Tiger, you may be special enough."

He was able to control his bloodlust and maintain order among his subordinates.

But I absolutely do not believe that all your subordinates are like you.

Otherwise, you, as the leader, will not have a secure position.

Gu Lang let out a cold laugh as he watched the berserkers rush out of the central square.

It roared and rushed headlong into the trap where the residential building was located.

At that moment, the self-built houses in the northwest corner of the town were already crowded with wandering berserkers from the outskirts.

After a sharp, loud bang, the horn stopped.

This means they have broken into the top-floor room.

"Could there be a problem with the detonator?"

Gu Lang glanced anxiously at his watch.

Before the words were finished, a red light flashed from the direction of the self-built house.

By the light of the fire, he even saw a transparent bubble burst.

The powerful shockwave tore apart and sent flying any berserkers near the building.

Further away, the berserkers who hadn't yet arrived were thrown about by the shockwave.

"boom--!!!"

As the sound of the explosion reached the mountaintop, Gu Lang saw the fireball expand and crash down the walls and roof.

Countless broken bricks and tiles flew in all directions like shrapnel from cannonballs.

Flames, mixed with various fragments, swept towards the densely packed figures on the street.

Smoke and dust billowed into the sky, and the self-built house collapsed on the spot.

Gu Lang looked towards the town center, where the huge explosion left the rioters below the residential buildings momentarily confused.

However, the continuous screams emanating from the loudspeaker still drew their attention.

They all rushed into the stairwell and frantically made their way to the roof.

Just then, Gu Lang saw that familiar figure.

"Tiger" appeared, running out of the town government building shouting something.

He rushed towards the residential building, seemingly trying to recall his men.

"That's right, we've been waiting for you. Hurry up and stop your men, there's not enough time."

Gu Lang gripped the binoculars tightly and began to mutter to himself.

Unfortunately, just as "Tiger" was about to approach the residential building...

He suddenly stopped, as if he had sensed danger.

They caught several rioters who were still running into the residential building and taught them a severe lesson.

He then seemed to say a few words to his men and pointed to the residential buildings.

Then he turned back without looking back, leaving only his men to gather the others who had gone mad.

"Damn! So smart, he didn't fall for it?"

Gu Lang angrily put away the binoculars.

Since the main character of this play refuses to appear, there's no point in watching any longer.

He hurried down the mountain and back to the scenic area, when another huge explosion came from behind him.

Pull open the retractable fence at the entrance of the scenic area and climb into the driver's seat.

Gu Lang secured the various weapons at hand and started the light truck.

He checked the map again; it showed the route he had memorized perfectly.

Tiger was not killed instantly as planned, and the chaos caused by the explosion did not last long.

Fortunately, the two explosions have killed enough berserkers.

It's not so easy to stop myself from crossing the town anymore.

Gu Lang turned on the high beams and slammed on the accelerator.

The front of the car smashed through various roadblocks and rushed into the town.

His thinking was incredibly clear.

We must seize this precious moment when the man-made inferno consumes all our attention and quickly cross the bridge ahead.

Upon reaching the other side, Gu Lang saw that the residential building had collapsed to the south, cutting off the road.

So he swerved sharply to the left and veered off to the southwest onto Provincial Highway S203.

The town was affected by the earthquake, and the road conditions were extremely poor, making it difficult to pick up speed.

Fortunately, he only encountered a few berserkers along the way, all of whom he took down with his air rifle.

After resolving the minor problem, Gu Lang focused intently on observing the road conditions ahead.

Carefully maneuvering around the various concrete pillars, he didn't need to look at the hellish scene behind him.

The towering flames, collapsing buildings, and the howls of the ravages provided the best cover.

As the light truck drove past a gas station, Gu Lang felt a surge of excitement.

He knew he had successfully escaped the town, and the road ahead had become wider.

The scenery along the highway kept changing, from houses to farmland and then to forests.

After driving more than 50 kilometers, he finally arrived at the outskirts of Tongyuanbao Town.

If you drive 60 kilometers south from here, you will reach the city of Fengcheng.

Unable to see the situation in Tongyuanbao Town in the darkness, Gu Lang did not rush in.

This is a well-connected transportation hub.

In times of peace, it is the lifeline of wealth; in times of apocalypse, it is the vortex of death.

The intersection of national highways, provincial highways, expressways, and railways means that threats could come from any direction.

As usual, we took the rural road up the mountain.

The car was hidden far away on the back slope of a small hill outside the town, concealed by the dense woods.

After setting up the infrared alarm device, a wave of fatigue washed over me.

Just as he finished urinating at the edge of the cliff and was about to return to his car to rest.

Suddenly, the roar of an engine came from afar.

Gu Lang instantly snapped out of his daze and peered into the distance through the gaps in the branches and leaves.

A police car and an ambulance sped past on the provincial highway at the foot of the mountain.

The four beams of light shot westward and into Tongyuanbao Town, making no attempt to conceal their presence.

After a series of screeching brakes and clanging metal, the town was thrown into chaos.

Laughter and shouts echoed in waves.

"It was them...we were almost caught in a pincer attack."

Gu Lang felt a wave of fear wash over him.

The car had obviously come from Shulu Town.

Although he couldn't see who was in the car, his intuition told him:

It is highly likely that "Tiger" and his surviving subordinates arrived.

Like a maggot clinging to a bone, they have been hunting all the way from the west to this place.

Whether they came to seek revenge or to hunt for food, that remains to be seen.
