“Those zombies… broke Hidden Cloud Base in an organized way, but only attacked higher-leveled people. I think something is not right,” Han Xiao, one of the chairmen of Huaxia Base, crossed his arms before his chest as he thought for a moment and then said.
“Those zombies all disappeared after turning Hidden Cloud Base into a mess. Where the hell were they from? Where are they now?” Si Kongchen spent a while thinking, yet failed to figure out a thing.
No one saw those zombies leave, so the people from the other bases had no information about their whereabouts.
“We must find them! Macuy and the other zombies! Our base will grow much stronger if we obtain their nuclei,” Wei Haichao looked at Si Kongchen. His eyes glowed as if he was looking at a pile of sparkling zombie nuclei.
He talked about strengthening the base, but no one could tell if he was really thinking that way.
“We lost touch with our people who were sent to Green Mountain Base and Sea City Base. I think we need to send out more people to those two bases,” Han Xiao said with a serious look.
“Send some meticulous people. Green Mountain Base doesn’t seem weak. Sea City Base people are acting weird too. They seem to have been trying to hide something,” Si Kongchen nodded in agreement with Han Xiao.
…
Lin Qiao encountered no problem on her way back from Hidden Cloud Base to All Beings Base, spending less than ten days on that trip.
Yuan Tianxing and the others heard about the news earlier than the people from the other bases. After learning that the Hidden Cloud Base was destroyed, they sighed with relief, and also felt it to be reasonable. Earth Dragon Base was destroyed not long ago. So this time, Hidden Cloud Base’s destruction didn’t surprise them.
“Our Chief is powerful indeed! It has only been a few days, and she has already turned Hidden Cloud Base into a mess! That is amazing!”
“Really? Really? Is Hidden Cloud Base really destroyed?”
Almost everyone in All Beings Base had heard the news. They were surprised that another of the three enemies that destroyed their home and killed their families was decimated. They were delighted, and also surprised.
“They deserve that! None of them will end well!”
“You’re right! I heard that all leaders and vice-leaders of Hidden Cloud Base have been killed, and many high-leveled superpowered people in that base are dead. So now, only some commoners and ordinary soldiers are left in the base. Those lower-leveled superpowered ones are just average! Let’s see if Sky Fire Base will kindly help them!” Someone laughed.
Knowing that Hidden Cloud Base was destroyed by Miss Lu, their current leader, and a small troop under her command, those people developed a greater admiration for her. At the very least, they were now willing to call her ‘Chief’ sincerely!
“Great! Earth Dragon Base is dead, and Hidden Cloud Base is ruined. Will Sky Fire Base be the next? Miss Lu is really amazing! I heard that she brought less than a hundred people with her, yet she wasted the entire Hidden Cloud Base. How did she do that? Doesn’t Hidden Cloud Base have a level-eight leader and three level-seven ones? Not to mention those level-six people…” Some other people were curious about the details. For them, that was an unsolved puzzle.
“No matter how she did it, she is powerful!” Some people didn’t care about the process, but only wanted the result. They wanted their enemies to become homeless and lose their families, like they did!
Apart from the current residents of All Beings Base, some other people were also happy. Those were the ones who refused to leave with Lin Qiao, but stayed in Hades Base.
They didn’t want to travel all the way to All Beings Base with Lin Qiao, but decided to stay in Hades Base and live on the remaining supplies there. Not long ago, they heard that the Earth Dragon Base suffered attacks from a mysterious being. At last, Long Yubai and a few vice-leaders died, and some others went missing; the base was then brought under Hidden Cloud Base’s control.
At that time, they were thrilled! Every one of them screamed that it was the karma for Earth Dragon Base, for Long Yubai that b*stard.
Not long after that, they heard that Hidden Cloud Base had fallen. Once again, they were so happy. Meanwhile, they started to hear from the new base in Hangzhou.
They heard that the new base had rich supplies! The fence wall was still under construction, but the construction work had been going on very efficiently! Also, the base was guarded by zombies! Those zombies wouldn’t attack human beings, but guarded the base against all possible invaders!
They heard that the people who had moved to the new base were all healthy and happy! They had fancy food like rice and noodles!
They also heard that those people lived in clean and sturdy buildings, and that they had clean beds and quilts! They even had endless water!
They also had a secret way to make zombies ignore them. They wouldn’t be attacked by zombies when they left the base to search for supplies!
All that they had heard reminded them of the zombie path that the woman asked them to go through, back when she offered to bring them to the new base. Back then, those people could tell that she was able to control those zombies. Otherwise, why would those zombies make a path so obediently? Normally, they would crazily jump on any human being they saw; but on that day, they only stood there motionlessly.
After thinking that through, those people in the old Hades Base started regretting not following that woman that day. Those zombies wouldn’t attack them, so what was to be afraid of? They looked ugly, but so what? It had been years since apocalypse happened, and people had gotten used to those ugly zombies long ago!
As the supplies started running low, barely maintaining those people’s life, they finally started thinking about moving to the new base.
“We made our own decisions to stay. If we go there now, they’d certainly laugh at us!” Some people couldn’t get over with that. If they went to the new base now, they would be a grade lower than the others. They would never be able to earn their dignity back in front of those people!
“But… But, they said that we can join them later. It’s free for us to join the base. What else matters? We just want to survive, right? Besides, we can help them build the fence wall if we go there now! The fence wall is still under construction, isn’t it? We can help too, can’t we?” Some people only cared about whether they could survive or not.
“You’re right! We will be the second batch of people who joins the new base. There might be more who would want to join that base in the future. Think about Earth Dragon Base and Hidden Cloud City Base. I doubt those two bases can last for a year. I think the new base will be stronger than this old one! Where do you all plan to go when we run out of food? Earth Dragon Base? Hidden Cloud City Base? Sky Fire Base?”
Some other people had a long-term vision.
