Three-Day Crash Course

"Um?"

Wang Tao flipped over and sat up.

He went to the window and slowly adjusted the frequency knob on the radio.

"Buzz... Red Stone Survivor Base... Buzz... Provides water, food... Buzz... Safe... Buzz... Repeat... Red Stone Survivor Base... Buzz..."

"Red Stone Survivor Base..."

Wang Tao stroked the stubble on his chin and muttered to himself.

Judging by the name, it should be the Survivor Base in Red Stone County.

According to the official announcements online, due to the suddenness of the event and the lack of preparation time, the official plan was to build a Survivor Base in each city.

The Yellow Wind City Survivor Base is located in Red Stone County.

The reason for choosing that location was because there was an army stationed there, as well as certain defensive measures that could be utilized directly.

However, during the days of the virus outbreak, infections also occurred within the army, causing chaos. Especially after communications were cut off, Wang Tao was unsure whether the base in Red Stone County still existed.

Now, hearing news about the Red Stone County base through the radio, Wang Tao was very happy.

The fact that they could still transmit radio waves meant that they must have gained some control over the situation.

But not hearing any news about counterattacks or rescues meant that they were probably only able to protect themselves, and that was it...

In any case, this was good news. It also gave Wang Tao a motivation or goal—at least so many Survivors were still alive, so how could he die first!

"Buzz... Buzz..."

The radio played for a while and then went silent again, it was unknown whether it was actively turned off or if something went wrong.

Hopefully, it was the former.

After silently praying, Wang Tao turned on the walkie-talkie again.

Similar to the radio, the walkie-talkie was also turned on once every night, but while the radio had at least picked up two signals, the walkie-talkie had heard nothing.

This was understandable, after all, without a repeater station, the range of these civilian walkie-talkies was only about two or three kilometers, so it was normal not to hear anything.

However, perhaps he was lucky tonight, because after hearing the news on the radio, his walkie-talkie finally made a sound! "Buzz... This is... Buzz... Shui Ze University... Survivor Base... Buzz... Please respond if you receive... Please... Buzz..."

Hearing the intermittent sound, Wang Tao's eyes lit up.

Shui Ze University was a nearby school, about five kilometers away from his Happiness District. Judging by the meaning of the words, could it be that someone had built a Survivor Base inside Shui Ze University? Shui Ze University was built in recent years, and its location was relatively remote with a sparse population, but it was close to Yellow Wind Film City, and many college students went to the Film City for part-time jobs.

Wang Tao had been to Shui Ze University a few times, and his impression was neither good nor bad, just an ordinary school.

And near Shui Ze University, there was a squadron of about dozens of public security soldiers. If these soldiers had not been infected or died on a large scale, they should have the ability to build a small Survivor Base...

Wang Tao pressed the PTT button on the walkie-talkie.

"I received, I received."

Wang Tao did not say his detailed information, after all, he did not know the specific situation over there, so it was better to be cautious.

But his words did not receive any response.

"Buzz... Shui Ze University... Base... Please reply if you receive... Repeat..."

"I received, I received, I received."

Wang Tao repeated a few times, but after waiting for a while, there was still no response from the other side.

"Could it be that my walkie-talkie's power is too low?"

Wang Tao was immediately depressed.

The communication principle of walkie-talkies can be simply understood as emitting signals in all directions from a person's location. Under the same terrain conditions, the higher the power, the farther the signal is transmitted.

These four walkie-talkies that Wang Tao scavenged from 602 were all ordinary civilian models, and the communication distance might only be two or three kilometers. The walkie-talkies on the Shui Ze University side might be high-powered, with a communication distance of more than five kilometers.

This meant that their signal transmission distance was far, and they could transmit to Wang Tao's walkie-talkie, so Wang Tao could hear them.

But Wang Tao's walkie-talkie signal was weak and could not send signals that far, so they could not receive what Wang Tao said.

This was a bit of a pain, Wang Tao still wanted to learn about the situation of other Survivors.

After trying a
