Chapter 105: Save the Savior (11)

Without comparison, there is no hurt. With comparison the whole journey, all the other temporary members of the ability team felt that the packs were an evil thing. If they hadn’t looked for a helmet to put on during the journey, they probably would have been blown into disarray by the time they arrived. If a flying car was invented for the next time, that would be a really good thing.

“Is that the base ahead? I think we’ve already seen the city wall. But, should we be looking for survivors around the base? The base has already been breached, there shouldn’t be any people still inside, right?” said a young man on the team with dyed yellow hair.

Lei Long shook his head, “Although the base was breached, we have been able to receive occasional distress calls from the base; it seems that some people in the base have survived. We’ll take a look at the base first, then we’ll spread out.”

No one objected, so they all maneuvered their rocket packs toward the base. On the way, they were all on guard. Who knew what sort of disastrous things were in that breached base? Maybe there was a fourth-level zombie? But, if there really was a fourth-level zombie, wouldn’t they all get wiped out?

“Ah! Everyone look ahead quickly! Is there a person there?”

“It doesn’t look like a human. The eyes look too dull, and the clothing also seems too tattered, right?”

“That’s not the point! Look carefully! The point is that when the zombies pass by him, they don’t take the initiative to attack him!”

The team members declared their observations and doubts, all the while getting closer and closer to the strange person. Seeing that person, Ren Zhu suddenly frowned. He called out, “Don’t go there!”

Everyone was dumbfounded when they heard this. However, two people’s rocket packs continued to fly. They quickly arrived at an angle above the strange person. Ren Zhu then called out, “Get away from him quickly! He’s under control!”

However, this warning was a little slow. In the moment they panicked, a zombie sprang out from behind the strange person, its claws grabbing toward the necks of the youth and the woman. If they really were grabbed, these two would surely lose their lives. Fortunately, both of them carried power protection rings on their wrists. At the critical moment, they used the rings, blocking the zombie’s strike. Another teammate rushed over and quickly killed the zombie.

Upon seeing this, the controlled person wanted to run away. Unfortunately for him, his speed was too slow and Fatty Jin caught him. While Fatty Jin was holding onto him, he also admonished him earnestly, “You are simply just a zombie spy! We’ve all encountered such a dreadful calamity, so if we don’t help and encourage each other, that can be forgiven. But you’ve gone to the length of being a traitor and spy. That’s too frightful, too excessive.”

Unfortunately, there was no response to Fatty Jin’s words. The moment the zombie spy was caught, the light in his eyes went out.

“Tsk, I can roughly guess why this pretty good mid-sized base was breached.” Fatty Jin clicked his tongue twice. Zhou Yun and the others nodded.

There’s a good saying, ‘Don’t be afraid of a godly opponent, be afraid of a pig teammate.’ This situation might be not just on the level of a pig teammate, but a pig god.

“This person’s circumstances are very strange. Let’s go search the base for survivors, people who’ll know the inside story,” said Lei Long. He then turned to look at Ren Zhu, “Ren Zhu, how did you know he was being controlled? Was there something wrong with his psyche?”

Ren Zhu nodded, “While I was looking at him, I found that his eyes were expressionless and slow to react, not what a normal person should have. Also, the zombies around him did not take the initiative to attack him, so he probably had some connection with the zombies. I used my psychic ability to examine him and found that the fluctuations of his psyche were strange, as if he was filled with animosity toward us. As such, I thought he was being controlled. However, this still needs detailed scientific research. We must find out how this person was controlled as soon as possible and create an effective defense. Otherwise, even the four big bases wouldn’t be able to stop this type of attack that collapses from within.”

Hearing this, everyone’s expressions were grave. Next, the twenty people split into four small groups and headed in four different directions to explore this mid-sized base. If something happened, they could get in touch by cellphone. Everyone sighed with relief that, fortunately, no natural disaster had occurred during this man-made disaster. Otherwise, while the human death would be about the same, the communication equipment would be completely useless. Then, everyone could only fight bravely alone until despair.

Ren Zhu, Yi Xiao, Mao Gancao, Gou Jianfei, and little Jin Yu were a group of five. Jin Yu originally wanted to follow Fatty Jin. However, Fatty Jin felt that he was just a speed ability user. If some unforeseen accident happened, it would be difficult for him to guarantee his nephew’s safety; he would be better off following the two formidable golden thighs. This move was a little shameless, but Jin Yu was the youngest of their 20-person group, and this petty advantage could still be grabbed.

Lei Long was a little worried about having two ability users, Ren Zhu and Yi Xiao, carry three non-ability users. However, thinking about the strength of those two, he felt he was worrying too much. Just follow their lead. In the northeast, there were two large areas that needed to be explored. One was the base leader’s building, and the other was the ability users’ training ground. Ren Zhu first led his group to the ability users’ training ground and found that the damage there was very severe. The five people walked through the area; they saw bodies all over the ground, as well as many ability users who had turned into zombies wandering around.

These zombies were first lured over by the little robot made by Jin Yu, then Mao Gancao and Gou Jianfei quickly made a surprise attack from behind. The three people’s coordination was very good. At this time, if a second-level zombie or some other situation were to suddenly appear, Ren Zhu and Yi Xiao would take action. Even so, by the time they cleared the entire training ground, three hours had already passed.

“There are no survivors here,” Mao Gancao sighed and ate two pieces of chocolate. “I suspect the internal strife began here, so this place was worst struck by disaster, and no one survived.”

Ren Zhu was silent for a moment, then said, “Go to the leader’s building. We should be able to get some useful information there.”

“Mn, maybe in or near the leader’s building we can find a panic room, or a research room. Leaders, they are all afraid to die and all like to squander money,” sighed Gou Jianfei, his words calling for a spanking.

They quickly arrived at the leader’s building. Compared to the miserable condition of the training field, it was actually no worse here, but it seemed to be less bloody. Many of the zombies wandering about were wearing uniforms and holding guns; they should have been the building’s guards.

The cat, dog, and bird again began to clear out the building. Yi Xiao suddenly turned and walked in one direction and Ren Zhu quickly caught up with him, calling the three kids. They didn’t expect Yi Xiao to go directly to the elevator and press the number three.

“What strange thing is on the third floor? Shouldn’t this sort of secret base be on the first or second floor?”

When Ren Zhu and the others stepped out of the elevator, Mao Gancao and Gou Jianfei were almost blinded. They seemed to see zombies down on the first floor encircled within a gold wall. This, if this was an ability, wasn’t it too far in defiance of the natural order?

A sudden sound was heard, startling Mao Gancao’s group of three. Jin Yu’s eyes widened, “Huh? The gold’s disappeared!”

At that moment, on the third floor, an excited voice rang out, “Is there an expert coming to save us? My illusion seems to have been broken!”

At the end of the third floor, the largest door quickly opened from the inside and revealed a few heads, all messy as birds’ nests. Completely different from these bird’s nest heads, there was also a young man with the bun and apparel of a Daoist priest. Ren Zhu raised his eyebrows. This person should be the one who made the illusion. He didn’t expect that, in this world, he could still see a Daoist priest. However, Ren Zhu glanced at Yi Xiao standing next to him; there were even flying jiangshi, what was so strange about Daoist priests? Furthermore, the four big bases also had a lot of qigong, jin zhongzhao, taijiquan, and other inner strength methods, didn’t they? The world has changed; now, no matter what happens, it is normal.

Yi Xiao and Ren Zhu took the other three and quickly disposed of all the zombies on the third floor. In fact, these zombies had no outstanding combat strength; there were all first level zombies, nothing more. But even so, the dozen or so people inside the room did not dare to come out. After Ren Zhu and the others entered, they heard how everything happened, and understood why they did not dare to come out.

“As long as I live, I will never forget that sight,” a young person with dark circles under their eyes recalled the events, fear lingering in their heart. “I’m not an ability user, but I have followed my grandfather’s Tai Chi since elementary school. Maybe it’s due to innate skill or our good relationship, but I have practiced for ten years and developed a sense of qi, and my body is very good. So, I’ve been able to keep up until now. At that time, I was patrolling on top of the wall and I saw a team returning with a carload of food. Because of this, no one took any precautions against them. After all, only people will eat, zombies don’t need to at all, right? So, even if those people all looked a little expressionless, the guards at the gate did the basic checks and, after making sure they didn’t have the zombie virus, they let them in.

“After, it was a nightmare.

“After those people came in, they immediately began attacking the gatekeepers. No one had any defenses. Many people were killed at that time; the captain of our guards was killed by one person’s gun. Usually, our captain is such a strong man, but he unexpectedly died at the hands of his own compatriot! Those people must not be allowed a gentle death! They killed their own people, and they brought a lot of second-level zombies with them! Vast amounts of zombies charged into the base; our base collapsed in no time at all. Everyone ran around like lost dogs, just looking for a place to survive.” The youth with dark under-eye circles sighed. “At that time, I fled here. But, what terrible things happened after that, I don’t know.”

“I know,” the young Daoist priest suddenly spoke. “That should be a third-level, psychic ability zombie. I fought it head on, but I couldn’t hit it, so I ran.”

Everyone turned to look at him.
