Chapter 16: Gas Station

Before I get home I'll head to the gas stations to get as many tanks of gasoline as I could for I'll need it.

I have about 20 hours before the End of the Beta Period so I'll make sure I get enough gasoline to set a couple of buildings on fire.

In about an hour we finished loading everything onto the 14 trucks. We also got a couple of Firearms after the Manager of the warehouse told us where they were. We got 1 shotgun 2 handguns. I also found a couple of fire extinguishers which could be useful to put out a fire, as well as a couple of Fire axes.

Were all set to go.

I have everything loaded onto the 14 trucks and can soon set off.

14 Trucks and 5 Police Jeeps on the streets of New York. That is quite a sight to behold. We have a total of 34 people, excluding myself. I'll consider that quite a large group.

In the Zombie apocalypse, it is usually better to stay in smaller groups and to make as little noise as possible but I just can't do that when I have 14 freaking trucks with me. So we're doing the exact opposite.

I have all the Officers turn on their police sirens and blast it at full force.

This created such a loud amount of noise that soon a horde of Zombies had come out from every alleyway or house that wasn't sealed off.

The Louder the noise the more Zombies.

I had Jack grab the megaphone and start hollering out survival tips for the survivors out there. I had him tell the people of New York that killing a Zombie can help your body become stronger and if you make your Vitality over 20 in stats you can become partially immune to the virus so you won't turn into a zombie if you can kill enough of them.

There were a few survivors that tried to come to us for help but weren't able to because of the large horde of Zombies we attracted.

We were headed to a nearby Gas Station.

We need a lot of Gasoline to keep these trucks Running.

Without the trucks, I wouldn't be able to Transport all the food.

I need an Interspatial Ring but I won't be able to get it until a month later when the Otherworld merchants arrive or if I find a dungeon that has it as a reward.

I look at my phone and stare at the google maps app. I'm looking for all the areas that should have dungeons as they were there in my past life.

I remember very clearly that Landmark areas where there is a huge population are generally where a dungeon spawns.

I remember that the Manhattan subway station also became a dungeon destination.

I quickly found the location of the nearest subway station and bookmarked it as an extremely important location.

I also remember that near central parks lake there showed up an entrance to a dungeon as well.

Those are the 2 dungeons in New York that I remember going to and a lot lets not forget the site that will become an Other World Merchant Shop.

The EMPIRE STATE BUILDING.

With a total of 102 floors, well technically 103 if you count the Secret balcony. But that building became a Merchant Shop #122 meaning there are at least 122 other Merchant shops, I said at least because there are more than 122 others.

Merchant Shops only show up in areas that have a large surviving human population and New York would become one of those in a Months time. This is also why there is only a merchant shop showing up after 1 month.

I quickly mark the Empire State Building as a Merchant shop. I also marked all convenience stores, supermarkets, and Hypermarkets; such as Walmart, Target, Best Buy, and others.

The reason I picked the hypermarkets was that they usually have 3D printers.

3D Printers are one hell of a good thing in the Apocalypse, they're very rare, so everyone tries to snatch them up like crazy so I better get them fast. This is because not everyone has a gun in the apocalypse and a 3D printer fixes that problem.

With a 3D printer, you can simply print out a gun design off the internet for free.

The trucks and police soon start to slow down were not yet at the gas station just yet but have to stop due to the road in front being blocked off by a car crash in front.

The entire road is blocked off.

Damn, now of all times.

I look at the horde of Zombies behind us and know I need to take out the Zombies first.

Damn! I was gonna blow them all up at the Gas Station.

Take out your guns men. Drivers get ready to make a U-turn we need to make a detour. Well ram them in and get going.

The Truck drivers put their trucks on the reverse and pressed down hard on the gas.

The 14 trucks each weigh about 13 tons so these trucks smashing into a crowd of zombies killed most of them.

The trucks backed by going in reverse until it reached the crossroads and we started a detour.

We took out about a 1/20 of the Zombies following us just by doing that stunt.

We shouldn't do that anymore as we'll need these trucks to last us about a month or until I get an interspatial ring.

The truck drivers got a whole lot of Evolution Points but since they weren't exactly part of the attack squad it was a bit of a waste.

We soon got back on the route to the Gas station and reached it.

The convenience store by the gas station was closed and blocked off with racks of items. The front door was blockaded so we couldn't get in.

There are people inside.
