Chapter 838: Chapter 838 Fuel Storage System

Adam nodded in agreement. "There should be fuel drums around here, or at least some gas canisters."

"It wouldn’t be stored out here," one of the men on Adam’s team added. He used to be a mechanic and had a bit more knowledge about car dealerships. "For safety reasons, the fuel is usually kept in a dedicated fuel storage system, separate from the main building. It would be too dangerous to store it here with the vehicles."

"But it shouldn’t be far from here either," the mechanic added. Hearing this, Rose gave a thoughtful nod.

"Alright, we’ll look for it later. For now, let’s wait for Fred and the others to return. We can’t leave our post just yet—there could still be hidden dangers nearby," she said as she followed behind the group. Besides, it was better to wait for Clyde since he might know exactly where the fuel storage system was. That would save them the time and effort of searching blindly.

While Fred and the others continued clearing the warehouse of any remaining zombies, the Space-Type Awakened Ability Users methodically stored the Jeeps in their spatial storages, carefully ensuring that each vehicle was properly secured. Rose and the rest of her group moved at a slower pace behind them, maintaining vigilance.

Halfway through the car collection process, Fred and his team returned, signaling that the area was secure. That was the cue for Jason, Adam, and their group to begin gathering crystal cores from the fallen zombies. By now, they had grown accustomed to the task—no longer flinching at the stench or the squishy sensation. Their extraction process had become much quicker and more efficient.

When Clyde and the others returned, Rose wasted no time and went straight to the point. She approached him and relayed what the mechanic had mentioned.

"Clyde, one of the mechanics from Adam’s team said there might be a fuel storage system nearby, where they stored the gas for all these vehicles. Do you know where it might be?" freeweɓnovel-cøm

Clyde paused mid-step, arms crossing over his chest as he fell into thought, considering her question seriously.

As Clyde thought deeply, he tried to recall the time he and his father had visited the area to buy a car. Then, as if a lightbulb went off in his head, he turned to Rose with sudden excitement.

"I remember now! The property management that leased this place to all the car dealerships on this street actually built a shared fuel storage system. Each dealership used the same system, and the management would just measure how many gallons each store used and charge them accordingly based on the market price. To make it easier, every dealership had its own fuel dock connected to that shared storage."

"If I’m not mistaken, all the dealership buildings here followed a similar layout—only the showrooms were different. So, based on that, the fuel dock should be right outside that door over there..."

Clyde pointed toward a double door at the far end of the warehouse. If Rose and Fred weren’t mistaken, that door led straight to the one-way entrance and exit road they had already planned to use for their departure.

It just so happened that the double door Clyde pointed to was also the same one used to drive out sold vehicles and bring in new inventory. While the others were still busy, Fred quietly approached the door. He and Rose took position on either side of it, exchanging a glance to signal they were ready.

Fred crouched slightly, then carefully reached for the knob. To his relief, it wasn’t locked. He slowly pushed the door open just a crack, trying to get a look at what was on the other side.
