Chapter 197
Chapter 197
The roads in Las Vegas are no longer able to serve their original purpose, as sand erosion has completely buried the roads.
The entrances of most buildings on both sides of the road are covered. The situation is better on the leeward side, but the sand piled up on the windward side of the buildings is almost two meters high!
There are almost no green plants anywhere in the city, and most of the coconut trees on both sides have been buried. The Eiffel Tower, the Statue of Liberty and other iconic buildings from various countries still stand in the city, but they have also become dilapidated and damaged.
The once magnificent MGM Grand Hotel is no longer glamorous and looks like a lump of earth. The entrance is gone and one can only see inside through the second-floor window.
The entire Las Vegas has been abandoned for a long time. Not only is there no living person to be seen, there isn't even a single zombie!
Three or four years have passed since the virus broke out, and for some unknown reason all the zombies here have disappeared.
I don’t know if there is any inside the building, but it’s very clean outside now!
The garrison point was set at the MGM Grand Hotel, and the cars were parked in the leeward area behind the building to reduce the risk of being buried.
At this time, Wen Liang's car has been replaced with a large truck. Although Wen Liang only has a driver's license for a family car, there should be no traffic police to check the car at this time.
After several years of practice, Wen Liang has become able to drive various vehicles very skillfully, including large trucks like this one.
The truck was modified by manual welding. A thick triangular anti-collision steel plate was added to the front of the truck. Strong covers were added to the sides and top of the rear cargo box. There were also isolation doors between the cab and the back. In particular, an M240 general-purpose machine gun was welded on the roof...
From a distance, it looks like a monster truck. Its rugged style is unmistakable, and it looks ferocious yet full of security.
The truck was truly modified bit by bit, which made Wen Liang's journey on the road a lot easier. The collected supplies almost filled the back of the truck, and countless weapons and ammunition were also found in the breached military camps.
With so much supplies, the two of them were able to spend the past three years relatively easily. However, as time went on, supplies became increasingly difficult to find, and the supplies they found were far less than what they consumed, so Wen Liang became increasingly agitated and wanted to end it all quickly.
After parking the truck, Wen Liang and Ava walked out of the car, and the heat wave hit them all at once. A gust of wind blew, and the hot sand flew everywhere, making people raise their hands to cover their faces and eyes.
"Are you sure you want to stay here?" Ava looked at the surroundings and asked Wenliang uncertainly.
Although Wen Liang's decisions had mostly been correct, the environment was really bad this time, so Ava asked hesitantly.
"Maybe we'll have to stay for a long time this time, so we have to prepare a place to stay!" Wen Liang said, "Do you know where this is?"
“Isn’t it Las Vegas?”
"Of course, what's in front of you is the most luxurious hotel ever, the MGM Grand!" Wen Liang introduced seriously, "Let's go in and clean up, we're going to stay here later!"
"I've never been to Las Vegas, but I know it's not cheap to live here!" said Ava.
"It is said that for $5000 a night, you can only get an empty room here, with nothing else. If you need other services, $ a night is not much at all!"
"Twenty thousand..." Ava exclaimed when she heard the price, but turned around and smiled, "But it's free now!"
"Yes, it's free now. Not only that, we also need to clean the room ourselves~" Wen Liang took out a shotgun and fired a few shots, "bang bang bang", leaving only a bunch of craters and cracks. Seeing this, Wen Liang walked straight forward.
He raised his foot and kicked the glass with great force. A big hole was kicked out in the glass with a bang!
Wen Liang reached out and tore the hole open. The sharp edge of the glass did not leave any wound on his hand, and Ava was not surprised by this scene.
It was because Ava had seen so many miraculous things happen to Wen Liang in the past few years that she was no longer surprised by this most basic violence.
"Now it's time to go in and clean it up!"
After Wen Liang finished speaking, he went in first. Following the corridor, he began to search all possible hiding places bit by bit.
It is said to be the second floor, but in fact it is at a high altitude in the lobby of the first floor. After entering, there is a steel frame structure that you can step on.
He didn't rush to jump in, because the sand covered the room, making it very dark even in broad daylight. Wen Liang turned on a strong flashlight to illuminate the entire hall, and he actually saw a dozen zombies wandering around inside.
Wen Liang took his rifle and shot quickly. After the cleanup was completed, there were still zombies rushing in from everywhere after hearing the gunshots, and they were also dealt with one by one by Wen Liang.
After ending the battle in the hall, Wen Liang jumped down and began to clear out possible threats room by room along the corridor.
Wen Liang was very fast. In less than half a day, he had finished checking all places on the first floor. There were still many zombies in various function rooms. Wen Liang remembered that he had killed nearly a hundred zombies on the first floor!
The elevator next to them was unusable, and the stairs up and down the safety passage were equipped with fire doors. Wen Liang simply blocked them all. At night, the two of them found a room on the first floor to rest.
Then we continued to clean up the next day, maintaining a steady pace of almost one layer a day.
The hotel has a total of 30 floors and about rooms. It took Wen Liang a month to clean it up!
The speed is not fast, just consider it as a pastime in the end times.
After clearing out all the zombies inside, the two began to slowly search each room for usable supplies. In fact, Ava had already started this job, and now with Wen Liang's joining, the search speed increased.
This is just looking for the MGM Grand Hotel. There are many such luxurious buildings in Las Vegas, and there are many hidden things, but it is difficult for ordinary people to find them.
Not everyone has a gentle physique and ability. Once they attract the attention of a large group of zombies, it will be a disaster for ordinary people!
Two months later, almost all the rooms in the hotel had been searched, and the available supplies were not many, but huge!
But most of them are daily necessities. There are some snacks with a long shelf life that can be eaten, and there are quite a lot of them. There are also a lot of drinks, mostly bottled water, beverages and wine, in large quantities.
Regardless of the shelf life, you can drink it for a long time!
What surprised Wen Liang was that there was a cold storage room in the Michelin restaurant on the first floor of the hotel, and it even had electricity!
So even now, most of the things inside have not spoiled or rotted!
Wen Liang opened the door of the cold storage and saw that there was a lot of "fresh" meat and frozen vegetables inside! There was also a lot of frozen fish, flour, seasonings, dehydrated vegetables, etc.
Wen Liang excitedly bought up all the available supplies and decided to splurge with Ava in the evening. He ordered frozen fish and beef, and had some long-lost vegetable soup... With so many dishes, a bottle of wine wouldn't be too much!
After eating and drinking, the two of them lay contentedly in the chef's lounge of the Michelin restaurant. The electricity in the warehouse comes from the restaurant's own solar thermal power generation equipment, so it can still supply the kitchen cold storage after a complete power outage.
After checking, Wen Liang discovered that there were actually two sets of this optoelectronic equipment!
Take out your electronic devices immediately, charge them and play games!
This is what Ava did after she lay down, but at this time Wen Liang had fallen into an abnormally deep sleep!
While he was sleeping, the system upgrade reached another important node. Wen Liang kept frowning and relaxing his brows, as if his body had sensed something.
After a sleepless night, Wen Liang suddenly woke up from his bed at dawn. He sat up abruptly, and the bed under him collapsed in an instant!
After coming to his senses and looking around and confirming that the environment was safe, Wen Liang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, the system prompt suddenly flashed, attracting Wen Liang's attention.
【System upgrade reaches 90%】
[Storage space: 499 cubic meters! ]
