The group of four was driving an SUV to SZ City. The road from SH City to the border was smooth.
Right after the SH city was conquered, Tang Shaoyang could do anything to the city. He could modify the city as he liked from the control room. He could remove and buy buildings. As long as he had enough coins, he could change the city to his liking.
The first thing he did was to make a new clear and smooth road. Giving smooth access to almost all areas in the city. The second thing he did was to make another wall. He surrounded the border with the upgraded wall.
"So this is the wall that Tarriors are talking about," Delia looked through the window and muttered. She was working in the kitchen, so she heard a lot about the newly built wall.
It was different from the steel wall that protected the core area. The upgraded wall was much higher and thicker too. It was not made of steel but made of stone.
The well-structured gray stones that formed a fifteen meters wall were giving off a firm and unbreakable impression. The defensive wall spread out, Delia could not see the other end. But from the Tarriors' mouth, the defensive wall enclosed the whole city.
But because the back of SH City was the sea, the wall did not circle the whole city. Thanks to the city's strategic topography, it cost less to build the city wall.
"But why build another wall?" Delia asked as she did not understand the reason why they should build another defensive wall.
"So there would be no one sneaking into our territory, either zombies or a hostile force, or even fierce beasts. The wall will increase the security in the city while we recover the city," Zhang Mengyao turned around and explained with a smile.
The two girls rarely meddle in the administration of the base. They focused on the kitchen, mostly they were asking her and Tang Shaoyang about the food of this world.
Even though Delia's class was Hunter, she chose to remain in the kitchen. She did not like to fight against other people. The battlefield was not her place.
Of course, she volunteered herself to hunt the beast if they were able to find the forestry area where the beast was living.
When she and Elin heard Tang Shaoyang would leave the city. They immediately raised their hands to join. They wanted to know more about the world, Earth.
Soon the car arrived at the gate. Four TIES officers were on guard while another four Tarriors were on the top wall. Two Defensive Towers with three ballistas were standing on the two sides.
Tang Shaoyang lowered the window, and the TIES officer immediately saluted, "My Lord!" The way the officer pronounced it was quite awkward, but his voice was firm and respectful.
"Mnn," Tang Shaoyang nodded once and pointed at the gate, "Open the gate for me!"
The officers told his friends to open the gate. The steel gate was pushed open by two officers. The four officers then saluted toward the receding car that left the territory.

While the journey from the base to the border was smooth, it was not when the group was entering the SZ City.
They could find one or two stage-1 zombies were still roaming around. Sometimes, stage-2 Swiffer would pop out and attack the roof car.
Tang Shaoyang let Zhang Mengyao drive the car while he stayed on the roof. He would kill the zombies they encountered.
This was proof that the SZ City Establishment did not conduct regular hunting. The city was still dangerous for ordinary people.
After half an hour of driving, they arrived at the first post in the city, the Flame Castle's area. Tang Shaoyang thought the people from the Flame Castle would obstruct them. They had a history after the Yu Shun chase case.
To his surprise, the Flame Castle let them past and even sent a car to guide them to the main base. It was surprising.
Since the area was safe from the zombie, Tang Shaoyang got into the car.
"Weird, why are they so kind to us?" Zhang Mengyao could not believe that they would receive a kind reception.
"Do we have a bad relationship with these people?" Unaware of what happened during the talk between the two sides, Delia asked out curiously.
"Yes, so be careful when we arrive at their base. Don't leave us or wander around alone," Zhang Mengyao nodded and warned the two girls.
Tang Shaoyang watched the girls conversing, there was something that bothered him. Why would Zhang Mengyao bring the two despite the potential trap?
She was worried for herself that the invitation might be a trap. So why?
'Does she want the other girls to get killed?' Tang Shaoyang immediately shook his head as the nasty thought crossed his mind, 'She is not that kind person.'
—You really don't know much about girls, huh?
Zowen interjected during his musing.
—The reason she agrees to bring the two is not to eliminate the rival, but to keep a watch on you.
'Keep a watch on me?' Tang Shaoyang was bewildered when he heard that.
—Yes, in a month, you take your subordinate in and four women from another world as your women. Another month, you take Li Na into your harem. She is afraid that you will get more women if she lets you loose.
Only a woman could understand another woman. The words held some truth behind them as Zowen's guest was spot on.
—Elin, the mature and sexy girl. Delia, young but also has her figure. If you look at a woman, your mind will subconsciously compare them to yours. I bet there are only a few women who could match these two beauties.
Tang Shaoyang thought for a moment. The last part was right. When he looked at the other women, he would compare them to his.
Then he realized that Zowen might be right. Zhang Mengyao followed not because want to accompany him, but to watch him closely.
He could not help but shake his head. It was unnecessary, but he could understand that. Zhang Mengyao had insecurity from the start.
"We have arrived!" Zhang Mengyao stopped the car in front of the forty floors building.
Tang Shaoyang looked up and started to look at the surroundings. He realized that the establishment was much worse than his base.
There were only three clean buildings, a building that seemed to be managed by the system. The rest of the buildings were abandoned buildings. They made use of those buildings for their people to live in.
Then he noticed many soldiers were standing around at the entrance. The soldiers were armed with guns and their green military uniforms.
Tang Shaoyang came down from the car along with the three girls. As the three girls came down, they attracted the soldiers' attention. Elin and Delia had a long-sleeve gray shirt and black trousers. It was not revealing clothes, but their chest stuck out. Showing their smoky figure.
Delia was uncomfortable with the gazes, she immediately hid behind Tang Shaoyang. Elin and Zhang Mengyao walked side by side.
"Is this how they greet their guests?" Zhang Mengyao's cold voice rang out. She intentionally said it out loud for everyone to hear.
