One day ago, Beauvais Town.

Military vehicles moved along the highway, heading northeast.

At noon, the troops set up camp and rested, the soldiers ate, preparing to relax.

At that moment, a man in military uniform ran into the tent, reporting urgently.

"Commander! The scouts have discovered a thousand red zombies approaching from the south!"

"A thousand?! How did they get here? They shouldn't be this far from their nest! Damn it! Quickly turn the tanks around!"

"Yes, sir!"

"Damn! Why are these monsters suddenly so active, and why have they left the city?!"

The Red Wine Commander angrily punched a folding table, shouting loudly.

...

Inside the Shelter.

Lin Yi, as always, woke up at around 6 a.m., full of energy, despite going to bed late the previous day.

As usual, he helped prepare breakfast.

Giselle suddenly said, "Boss, I talked to Solomon, and we both think that making me a Professional is a good idea."

"Alright, I'll arrange for you to level up quickly in the next town," Lin Yi nodded.

To turn an ordinary person into a Level 5 Professional, you just need to hand them a laser rifle and have them face 76 zombies trying to break through the steel wall.

Soon, everyone gathered together.

Many looked like they hadn't slept well, especially Solomon, who didn't sleep at all...

He took an hour's nap before being woken up by emergency work.

Louis didn't look good either, saddened by the loss of his tank.

Most crucially, the fact that he almost got five trusted people killed weighed heavily on his mind.

Chen Youyou also worked through the night, but still managed to get a few hours of sleep.

Lin Yi looked around at everyone, "Da Chuan, why do you look so gloomy?"

"Boss, I'm fine..."

"He's just upset because I've reached Level 10, and he's still at Level 8," Xiaochuan chimed in, sitting with Melanie as usual. Melanie openly showed pride for her boyfriend.

Lin Yi smiled broadly at this.

"Impressive. If you start getting cocky because of this, maybe I should take back the bow that got you to Level 10, huh?"

"Boss! No!" Xiaochuan finally panicked, knowing full well the boss might actually reclaim the bow...

"By the way, I want Giselle to become a Professional today. Anyone else interested?"

"I want to..." "Beauty" Mary raised her hand.

"Mary? Why do you want to join?"

Mary caressed her slightly swollen belly, "I want to be stronger to give birth to a healthy baby!"

"I want to too," Zoe said, looking at the kitten. She had been considering this for a long time and finally made up her mind.

Lin Yi nodded, instructing Solomon, "Teach them how to use the laser rifle, and find someone to back them up."

"Hmm? Oh...okay, boss..."

Solomon snapped awake from his dozing.

After breakfast.

Lin Yi sat in front of his laptop and opened the vending machine application.

"Tatiana...don't let me down. Hey, not bad!"

[Your Vending Machine]:

Vending Machine 2,

[Balance: 133665 Gold Coins].

"Wait...where is the first vending machine?"

Lin Yi quickly realized what was wrong.

He saw an ominous email in the inbox and opened it—

[Subject: Property Loss]

[Vending Machine 1 has been destroyed]

"Damn! It seems something happened in Beauvais..."

Lin Yi rubbed his chin, pondered for a moment, then started checking the level emails.

[Subject: Level Up]

Congratulations! Your Shelter has reached Level 14, and the shop's product range has been updated.

With no further messages, he began to check the list of personnel level 10 and above.

"Mage Squad Captain Piero, Level 12?!"

Lin Yi was quite surprised to see the first name on the list.

Then he remembered the battle in the canyon.

This kid was fully equipped with the best mage gear and teamed up with a Wind Mage, becoming like a weapon of mass destruction.

That Wind Mage had also reached Level 11.

Following these two mages were Xiaochuan, then Louis, and then Li, the Asian with telekinesis.

Solomon even briefly described his contributions on the battlefield in the list.

Li used telekinesis to throw spears at the enemy. When his skills reached Level 2, he gained the ability to enchant weapons and control them from a distance.

According to Solomon's description, Li throws the long spear and then it returns to his hand, just like the whistling person in Marvel...

He kept doing this until his magic value was exhausted, then he rested for a while, repeating the cycle.

"Monica? I think I've heard this name somewhere… Oh, right, the cute girl who screams."

Monica has the rare Banshee's Wail skill, which makes enemies deaf on the battlefield through her screams.

When she uses this skill on zombies, their heads explode.

However, she was able to level up thanks to the amplifier and the natural echo of the canyon, allowing her to kill a large number of enemies in the battle at the North Wall.

Behind her was a large group of warriors, including Solomon, several archers, and five laser rifle infantry.

After reviewing the list, Lin Yi visited the wounded and the families of the deceased, and finally went to the beastman camp.

As promised, Terghai provided 500 young warriors, one seasoned craftsman, and ten young apprentice craftsmen.

Additionally, there were twenty young female beastmen and one elderly female beastman.

The entire team was commanded by a beastman warrior named Terma.

Lin Yi had saved this beastman's life using medicine from the system, so out of gratitude, he volunteered to lead these young warriors to the human camp.

There is no war now, so most beastmen, whether male or female, were sent to harvest potatoes.

Terma acted as the supervisor, and any beastman who didn't work hard would only receive a half portion of food.

After dealing with the shelter's affairs, Lin Yi teleported to Combray on the outskirts of Paris, France, then summoned his dagger and walked toward a small town called Douai.

He now had many energy cores, so he could fly at full speed and use a shield to knock aside anything in his path.

Upon entering Douai, Lin Yi was somewhat surprised; the entire town had been looted!

This looting, although not as thorough as the shelter raid, was close enough.

"Looks like I'll have to head to the next town…"

Just as Lin Yi was preparing to leave, Melanie's voice came through the headphone.

"Boss! Around this corner, I think I've found something."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yi accelerated.

"Boss, to the east, there's a large convoy of vehicles over there; they look like refugees!"

"Indeed, they seem to be heading towards Lille. I think I can get some information from them, hey!"

Lin Yi talked to himself and then teleported back to the shelter, quickly changing out of his high-tech armor and into level 1 gear.

He then equipped himself with a level 3 sword and two rings, and put a few bottles of water and some canned food in his backpack.

"I'm going undercover!"

Upon returning to the town, the man summoned an ordinary motorcycle from the shelter and set off to intercept the massive convoy.

They were traveling along the A1 highway, while Lin Yi merged smoothly with the convoy from the A21 ramp.

This seemingly endless stream of vehicles and people moved very slowly, as most of the convoy consisted of people walking.

The vehicles were mainly used to transport fuel, food, materials, and parts resources.

The convoy's escorts also sat in vehicles.

However, besides civilians and professionals, the convoy had a pretty strong military escort, including ten armored vehicles and four tanks.

Additionally, there were several military trucks packed with young soldiers, and this was just what one could see...

Strangely, no one stopped Lin Yi's motorcycle, nor did anyone check whether he belonged to this convoy.

He just joined in, traveling along with them.

The people in the convoy were exhausted, filthy, and hungry, yet their eyes still contained hope, trudging onward.

Lin Yi approached an older professional with a bow slung over his shoulder and asked, "Excuse me, sir, is this convoy headed to Lille?"

"Oriental? Hmm... Yes, it's going to Lille. Where are you from?"

The old man scrutinized Lin Yi: "You're a professional, huh? And a lone wolf at that?"

"I just joined your convoy; I'm originally on my way to Lille too. I heard there's a big camp there?"

"Yes, that's what everyone says." The old man professional replied and then gazed into the distance.

Approximately 10 to 20 kilometers away, one could already see the outline of a large city.

The old professional's weary gaze shifted back to Lin Yi on the motorcycle: "I've never been there myself, but I've heard all sorts of strange tales about that place."

"Then why did you decide to go there? Isn't it quite dangerous?"

"Staying in Amiens is even more dangerous. The Red Plague nearly wiped out everyone there!"

The old professional said angrily, clenching his fists, making his knuckles crack.

Lin Yi was somewhat puzzled: "The Red Plague?"

"Have you been living in seclusion this whole time? A large number of zombies have come out of Paris. They're strong, almost like mutants, and they're bright red. They've been roaming around this area, killing ordinary zombies and destroying survivor camps."

"Got it... You just mentioned some strange stories about this city, right, old man?"

"Old man?! I'm only 45! I look old... They say they can produce food themselves, have a powerful army, and it's somewhat like an organized society."

"Oh?"

Lin Yi rubbed his chin; given the polluted soil now, how could they grow food?

But if this is true...

Then his rapid enrichment plan might be in trouble!

Suddenly, a loud shout blared from the loudspeaker.

"Air raid! We're under attack!"

"Air raid! We're under attack!!"

"Get down!" the older-looking man shouted, throwing himself onto the asphalt road.

Lin Yi thought for a moment and did the same...
