Chapter 25
TL: Hua
When Wen Qingling came back, it was already dark, and everyone in the barbican had left.
Although he wasn’t here, he had been paying attention to the situation in the barbican with his spiritual power.
Some people saw him leaving with the little monster Kuibao, and came up with some wishful thoughts. They discussed with Jiang Lan and the others whether they could stay for one night. No doubt they were rejected. They said that they could live in the barbican without entering the city, but Jiang Lan still refused.
The survivors only saw Wen Qingling’s strength but did not know the details of the others. They banded together with the intention of forcing Jiang Lan to accept them. As a result, everyone was beaten out of the city.
Wen Qingling’s strength has improved, and all the civilized zombies related to him are also stronger than before. Although they didn’t have superpowers, their speed and strength are comparable to evolved zombies, so they are not easy to mess with.
Xiao Hen and Ji Rong also left.
In a short period of time, two small and medium-sized bases were destroyed one after another, which left all bases near Ling City without any hope. Those who were still hesitating about whether to join the Ling City Base no longer hesitated and went there at the fastest speed.
The survivors near Ling City were concentrated to the greatest extent.
The leader of the Ling City Base got the news that the zombies that launched the zombie tide were a new type of evolved zombie that had consciousness and could talk. Their individual strength is very strong, and most importantly, they are smart, which means that they’re not only fighting with their strength but with their intellect as well.
Almost all the survivors near Ling City have moved into the Ling City Base. The top management of the base gathered to discuss countermeasures. In the face of the zombie tide, how should the base resist?
They have no doubt that the zombie tide will flock to the Ling City Base sooner or later. What they want is to strengthen the city wall before the zombie tide arrives, organize good manpower to counterattack, and prevent the zombie tide from breaking through the defense line.
All Xiao Hen and Ji Rong can bring to them is the news of the blood corpse; they can’t help with other things.
The leader of the Ling City Base appreciated them very much, and after having invited them many times, they still could not persuade them to join the Ling City Base.
Wen Qingling is the reason why Xiao Hen and Ji Ron were staying here. They weren’t here to help defend the base.
Xiao Hen and Ji Rong returned to the civilized base again, and once again raised the idea of wanting to stay.
Wen Qingling still refused.
The two of them retreated and asked for the next best thing. If they can’t live in the base, living in the barbican is also possible.
Wen Qingling: The barbican doesn’t work either.
He’s not stupid. If he let the two people in, how many of the base’s secrets would be revealed?
Xiao Hen couldn’t persuade him, so he could only continue to run back and forth between Ling City Base and South City, returning to the Ling City Base at night to sleep, and coming to South City during the day.
The news of the South City Clinic has been completely spread out. Many people have been cured, and they have become the clinic’s living advertisement.
After that, there will be infected people every day, and also survivors who refuse to leave and insist on staying at the base. To deal with such people, Jiang Lan has always spoken with her fist.
The more survivors were treated, the more poisonous blood was given to the blood anemones. The other two blood anemones also began to change, but they failed to evolve successfully and were eaten by Kuibao halfway through.
It seems to be very resistant to the emergence of its kind.
Every time Wen Qingling went out hunting, he would take Kuibao with him. The matter of the barbican clinic was handed over to his parents, Feng Bin and Wen Bo.
One day, when he was chasing a mutant cow, Kuibao was so excited that it sprayed out poisonous mist. The robust mutant cow instantly turned into a decaying zombie cow, with red eyes. Its size grew larger as well as its courage, because it even dared to attack Wen Qingling. Thus Wen Qingling had to kill it with his own hands.
It was also the first time he knew that Kuibao could actually spray poison mist.
He asked Kuibao to spray the mist at an ordinary zombie, and then the ordinary zombie turned into an evolved zombie with red eyes.
Wen Qingling solemnly educated Kuibao, “We are good socialist zombies. We can’t just spray poison mist, ok?”
Kuibao tilted his head to look at him. It was unknown whether he understood or not.
The poisonous mist is effective on zombies and mutant animals, much less humans. The effect will only be stronger. If a poisonous mist was sprayed on the survivor base, he didn’t dare imagine what kind of beautiful scenario would happen.
Early in the morning, Wen Qingling was neatly dressed and carrying a backpack, ready to go out.
Kuibao was inside the backpack.
As soon as he left the barbican, he met Xiao Hen and Ji Rong.
Xiao Hen: “Are you going out?”
Wen Qingling: “Go to the Ling City Base.”
Xiao Hen was even more surprised than hearing that zombies don’t eat people, “You shouldn’t want to join the Lig City Base. What are you doing there?“
Wen Qingling glanced at him, “Find someone.”
Will he tell him that he went to Ling City Base for the two lost blood anemones? No.
Xiao Hen: “We’ll take you there.”
Wen Qingling was noncommittal.
With a free driver, he doesn’t bother to drive anymore.
Ji Rong drove, while Wen Qingling and Xiao Hen sat in the back row.
Wen Qingling quietly looked out the window, his gaze dull.
Ji Rong looked at him in the rearview mirror and asked tentatively, “City Lord Wen, will the blood corpse attack the Ling City Base?”
Wen Qingling’s gaze did not move, “If it were me, I would have the entire Ling City Base relocated.”
Ji Rong and Xiao Hen both had a sinking heart.
Xiao Hen: “There are nearly 30,000 survivors in the Ling City Base, and there are quite a few people with abilities. If the blood corpse really wants to attack the Ling City Base, it is estimated that the entire Ling City’s zombies will have to be mobilized, but can it really control all the zombies in Ling City?“
At least the zombies in South City will definitely not listen to the commands of the blood corpse.
Because Wen Qingling would not allow it.
Wen Qingling said lightly: “That’s why Ling City Base can still exist in peace. When the blood corpse takes control of Ling City, the Ling City Base will be in danger.”
Xiao Hen looked at him and said, “You won’t allow the blood corpse to invade your South City.”
Xiao Hen said it with certainty.
After so many contacts, he has a certain understanding of Wen Qingling.
Although Wen Qingling is indifferent to human affairs, he will not take the initiative to attack human beings, whether it is himself or the zombie group he controls.
This shows that he is just a little indifferent and not a bad guy. He does things with his own principles.
Wen Qingling: “The blood corpse won’t touch South City. But zombies in South City that can’t stand hunger will take the initiative to defect.”
Although Wen Qingling can control zombies, he can’t stop zombies from pursuing a better life. Both humans and zombies have the right to choose a better life.
Looking at the convoy of survivors coming and going outside the window, Wen Qingling felt in a trance. After careful calculation, he had only been away from the human base for nearly two months. Why did he feel that human life was so far away from him, so far that he felt strange?
The entrance of the Ling City Base is more bustling than ever. There are vehicles and noisy people everywhere. Kuibao in the backpack was restless, wriggling and trying to come out. Wen Qingling patted it and made it quiet. Now wasn’t the time to make trouble.
Xiao Hen glanced at his backpack and raised his vigilance.
The person who refused to leave South City suddenly took the initiative to come out. There must be a reason why.
Moreover, he even brought Kuibao out.
