Gabriel sighed, a troubled look on her face.
"I want, too."
Dongyun gave a helpless look.
If he could donate his penis like the male protagonist in the doujinshi, why would he be willing to donate blood?
"..."
Gabriel remained silent.
After an unknown amount of time, she uttered words that sounded unlike those of an angel: "Is there no other way but to save them?"
"Yes, we absolutely have to save them." Dongyun nodded again, smiling helplessly. "They can drive, but none of the eight of us can drive. If I had known this would happen, I should have taken the driving test instead of putting it off."
If it were just him, Xiaojia, Nadeshiko, and Rin, they could easily leave the city on motorcycles.
But when they encountered the End of the Band, even if they could transport people on motorcycles, it was impossible for them to carry four people on one motorcycle. It wasn't that they couldn't do it, but the risk was too high. They weren't like the Indian band; there was no need for them to do that.
"Does your phone still have a signal? Send them a message and tell them to get through the night, and we'll go rescue them tomorrow."
Dongyun took out his phone to check the time; it was already noon.
After a morning of thrilling events, he was exhausted both physically and mentally. He was about to donate blood to Xiao Jia, so he felt that it was time to call it a day.
Donating blood will definitely affect his condition, and if he insists on bringing the person back, something might go wrong. He should rest well for the rest of the day, and deal with the rescue tomorrow.
"Have."
Gabriel checked her phone and found that it still had a signal.
She quickly found the phone numbers she had obtained from Yi Shanghua and Han Shengjing before leaving, and sent them the message that she would go to rescue them the next day.
Although Vikland has fallen, the city's power system is still operational, and cell towers are still functioning.
The gym where they were before had no power, probably because there was a problem with the power grid in that area. But the motorcycle shop where they are now has power.
I just don't know how long the power will last. According to the comments, it probably won't be more than 24 hours.
Because modern industrial systems are so complex and precise, they are also very fragile. Power grids and power plants require 24-hour human management and maintenance. If the load is not right, they will explode immediately. Therefore, the issue of power outages depends on when the power plant malfunctions.
As for maintenance, it's probably not being maintained anymore.
As for signal base stations, they normally have backup power supplies, so even if the whole city experiences a power outage, the base stations can maintain signal coverage for several hours to several days. Whether it's several hours or several days depends on the capacity of the base station's battery pack.
Anyway, once the power goes out, the network signal will also be cut off soon, and the water supply will be cut off soon as well.
However, they will probably be able to leave the city tomorrow, so even if the water, electricity, and internet are cut off, it won't affect them anymore.
Chapter 30 Sleepless Nights
It was getting dark.
The first floor of the motorcycle shop was completely deserted; everyone was resting on the second floor.
Someone definitely needs to keep watch tonight, but since Shinonome, Shima Rin, and Gabriel all have to pick someone up tomorrow, they can't keep watch tonight. It will have to be Kagamihara Nadeshiko and the members of the End Band who keep watch.
For safety reasons, and to prevent the night watchmen from falling asleep, the night watchmen are divided into groups of five, who take turns keeping watch in shifts.
"Huh? This is an escape rope? It's so simple."
"Right, it's very simple."
On a quiet night, Kagamihara Nadeshiko and Iji Chi Nijika chatted quietly.
After completing the "Guide," the band received the escape rope blueprint and four bottles of bile, and Ijichi Nijika made the escape rope based on the blueprint from the academy.
However, this escape rope was too simple; it was just an escape rope made of cloth.
This surprised Kagamihara Nadeshiko, who doubted whether the escape rope could actually be used for escape.
"However, this is only for emergencies. You can use bed sheets, curtains, and clothes as escape ropes. If you have other materials, you can make better and safer escape ropes."
Ijichi Hongxia explained.
The escape rope blueprint mainly taught her how to tie knots in the rope, ensuring that the knots were strong enough to prevent them from coming undone. It also taught her how to use nails to secure the escape rope to the windowsill so that it wouldn't easily slip off.
"Doesn't the store have nylon rope? That's easier to make into an escape rope."
Shima Rin looked at the simple escape rope in Iji Chikatsu's hand and spoke.
Everyone has a backpack, so instead of making a dangerous escape rope in case of emergency, it's better to carry a bundle of nylon rope. It can be used not only to escape through a window when zombies block the door, but also in many other situations such as mountain climbing and river crossing.
She had two bundles of nylon rope in her backpack, and it would be best if the band members brought two or three bundles as well.
After leaving this city, who knows what they will encounter, or even if they will end up in another place.
"Do you have nylon rope?"
Ichi Nijika was slightly surprised.
Nylon rope is good; that's the right escape rope.
"Yes, it's in that box."
Kagamihara Nadeshiko pointed to a large box in the corner of the room, which contained nylon rope and various other things.
At this moment, Dongyun, who had been studying Google Maps for a while, looked up and saw everyone in the room. He suddenly realized something and said, "Speaking of which, besides rescuing people tomorrow, we should also scavenge some food and water."
Throughout the day since the zombie outbreak, they've been eating whatever's in Nadeshiko's bag. Although Nadeshiko's backpack is large, it's not enough for the eight of them, including Nadeshiko, to eat and drink.
Therefore, they had to scavenge for water and food before leaving Vikland. Since they were driving, they were also able to scavenge for other supplies.
“That’s right.” Gabriel looked at Shinonome and asked, “Are there any large supermarkets nearby?”
"Yes, and it's right on our street. But we can't make too much noise, or we'll attract zombies from afar, and we might get trapped inside."
Dongyun found the supermarket closest to the motorcycle shop on Google Maps and handed his phone to Gabriel.
"If we can't make too much noise, does that mean we can't use guns?"
Kita Ikuyo said with concern.
Without guns, their band's fighting ability drops drastically, and they might not be of much help.
"Yes, try not to use guns. With Xiao Jia here, and if we take precautions, there will be no problem with so many of us being careful."
Dongyun wasn't worried about going to the supermarket for free shopping.
He has General Nadeshiko and Angel Xiaojia. Cricket zombies are nothing to be afraid of; he can easily handle them.
The only thing to be careful about is that the supermarket might lose power tomorrow, and it will be completely dark inside. Be extra careful when emptying the supermarket, as you might get bitten if you're not careful.
"We don't have any melee weapons, do we?"
Ichi Nijika glanced at the weapon she had placed against the wall and thought to herself: I can't exactly use the butt of a gun.
"Yes, there are crowbars, axes, and hammers."
Dongyun pointed to the pile of clutter in the room.
The motorcycle shop has crowbars, axes, hammers, and other items that can be used to make melee weapons.
You can't end a band with guns forever.
Guns are incredibly loud. In a city where everything is shut down and there are few ambient sounds, the sound of a gunshot can travel very, very far.
Dongyun didn't know if the system for ending the band had melee weapon assistance, but even if it didn't, in order not to attract zombies, they had to learn how to use melee weapons to kill zombies.
This is a lesson you must learn to survive the apocalypse; if you don't learn it, you'll die.
Shinonome glanced at the four girls who had finished their band performance. Judging from his intuition, he wasn't worried about Liang; her relaxed demeanor after she rode off on the motorcycle suggested she had a strong heart. However, he was quite worried about the other three: Nijika, Pochi, and Kita.
However, his worries were useless.
He could only hope that they could adapt to the current environment quickly and bravely. He didn't want to see the beautiful girls turn into zombies or be torn apart by zombies at all.
In the rooms on the second floor, everyone spoke quietly.
Because they were worried that the curtains wouldn't block out enough light, they didn't turn on the lights and relied on the light from Gabriel's angel ring. Simply placing the angel ring on the floor and covering it with fabric reduced the room's brightness.
After explaining what he needed to do the next day, Dongyun stopped talking.
He needs to refine all the plans for tomorrow. In addition to the rescue plan and the zero-dollar purchase plan, he also needs to formulate a plan for getting cars and a longer-term survival plan.
One plan, two plans, three plans...
In his notebook, Dongyun scribbled and drew, transforming into a doomsday idea king, making plans and filings, and occasionally exchanging ideas with the viewers and a few girls, discussing possible scenarios and countermeasures.
Before we knew it, the night had quietly fallen.
At this time, Shinonome, Shima Rin, and Gabriel were already asleep, while Kagamihara Nadeshiko and the members of the End Band were still awake.
Kagamihara Nadeshiko and Goto Ichiri were on night watch and therefore didn't sleep, while everyone else tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. If Goto Ichiri hadn't had to keep watch, she would have joined the group of sleepless people.
The End Band doesn't seem like Shinonome, Kagamihara Nadeshiko, or others who have experienced wilderness survival.
