Chapter 86 - 86

Chapter 86 BaitWith all the zombies in the base eliminated, people's fighting spirit was reignited. In order to protect this safe haven, people of all ages picked up whatever weapons they could find.Two days of relentless hunting showed no sign of the zombies decreasing.Points Redemption Center Office —Thump thump thump!!"Come in!"The man carefully closed the door, his voice low: " Deputy Base Commander! The zombies inside the city have all been cleared, but the number of zombies outside the city hasn't decreased, so... Xiaoyin's suggestion should be implemented!"Vice Base Commander Meng Dongcheng took a sip of his drink, silently closed his eyes, and asked, "Has anyone been chosen yet?"The man wiped the fine sweat from his brow. "Not...not yet."He slowly opened his squinted eyes, a barely perceptible glint of coldness flashing within them."Really? I remember there were those failed experimental subjects locked up in the dungeon. Since they're no longer of any use, we can use them to lure away the zombies. What do you think, Xiao He?"A cold gaze fell on Xiao He, who couldn't help but shiver. "Yes! Deputy Base Commander!"He Quan knew best about Vice Base Commander Meng Dongcheng's methods. He had personally witnessed how the Base Commander family disappeared. In any case, he would rather save himself than be thrown into the zombie horde."What? Aren't you going to get out? You have a problem with that, Xiao He!"The icy voice sent chills down his spine, "No, no,Deputy Base Commander, I'll go right now!"After the man left, there was another knock on the door.Vice Base Commander Meng Dongcheng, who had just taken a sip of his drink, looked impatient. "Come in!"Upon seeing the man enter the room, he paused, his wine glass momentarily catching in his eye. "Why are you back! Is everything cleaned up over there?"Captain Su, who had been stationed at the wall,was covered in dirt. He replied respectfully, "Deputy Base Commander, I'm here to report on the situation at the front."Seeing that the man remained silent, he continued, "There are about twenty teams participating in the zombie hunt, and ten temporary teams have been formed by scattered Ability Users. The rest of the people without Supernatural Ability are doing logistical work."However, if things continue this way, it will take approximately another two weeks to completely eliminate the zombie horde. Therefore, we hope you can order the distribution of supplies to ensure everyone has logistical support.Vice Base Commander Meng Dongchengsnorted coldly, his eyes darkening. " Captain Su! You're still worrying about these things now? The zombies are about to break in. This is what they're supposed to do, not come here to threaten me."" Deputy Base Commander! Non-stop fighting is very taxing on Supernatural Ability. If we don't replenish it in time, there will be no one to take over later on."Captain Su's voice was indifferent, as if he were just going through the motions, showing no regard for the angry Mediterranean man sitting in his seat." Captain Su!"Before Mediterranean could even speak, a crisp sound came from the doorway."who?""It's me! Dad!"A fluffy head peeked out from under the door, and she gave a lovely smile."I came to bring fish soup to Dad, and just as I opened the door, I accidentally dropped the spoon! Hey? Brother Xing, you're here too!"Meng Jingyin looked pleasantly surprised, then lowered her head shyly, "Brother Xing, it's perfect that you're here too. Dad definitely won't be able to finish this, so you should have some as well."She seemed oblivious to the unusual atmosphere, muttering to herself as she placed the thermos on the table and skillfully ladled out soup."Brother Xing, you've really worked hard. If you're too tired, take a break and don't push yourself!"Vice Base Commander Meng Dongcheng glared at his daughter with displeasure. "Alright, Xiaoyin, your brother hasn't even said he's tired yet, and you're already showing concern! Hmm?"Meng Jingyin blushed and muttered softly, "What? Dad! I was just telling the truth!"After she finished speaking, she secretly glanced at the distinguished man, her eyes filled with deep admiration."Since everything is alright, I'll be leaving now.Deputy Base Commander, please consider the bigger picture!"Without a moment's hesitation, and without even glancing at the shy Meng Jingyin, the door slammed shut."Brother Xing!"Vice Base Commander Meng Dongcheng looked at his heartbroken daughter with anger on his face, "Of all the people you could like, why did you have to like an ice block! You'll regret it later!""Oh no! Daddy, you have to help me!"After a barrage of coaxing, Vice Base Commander Meng Dongcheng reluctantly nodded, "Alright, Dad knows, you can go home now!"...A basement somewhere —"No! No! Don't come any closer!""Kill me! Please! Let me die!""What are you going to do? I don't want to go! I don't want to go!"Ten strong men in medical uniforms walked in, while six others stood by with guns, watching the panicked, begging crowd with expressionless faces."Hurry! Take ten of them away first!"One by one they were dragged out, their screams echoing incessantly.The man in the corner, dressed in tattered clothes, remained silent, trying his best to minimize his presence.One vehicle after another drove out of the base, and a third of the zombies were drawn away. People cheered, believing that these were vehicles specially arranged by the base to lighten their load.But Lin Anran didn't think so. She frowned as she looked at the blood dripping from under the car.Even without her, there will be other people they use, all for their own lives.She had long understood that the blood of this group was inherently black; they would stop at nothing to achieve their goals, even at the cost of taking other people's lives.She originally thought it would be like the previous life, sending out two vehicles, one to carry her to attract zombies and the other to be ready to evacuate at any time. But this time, a total of five vehicles went out, and there was no sign of stopping.Something's not right!Lin Anran stopped his attack and looked in the direction the vehicle had come from.That mysterious street!Jiang Qinian noticed the change in the person next to him from the very beginning, and he reached out and pulled the woman away from the wall."Let's go take a look!"Unexpectedly, the man understood what she meant, and the two ran over there.Hiding behind the stone statue, dozens of vans were parked on this road, and people kept coming out of the houses, one of them carrying a large sack on his shoulder."Is this... still a laboratory?"To her surprise, many secret laboratories had already appeared in the base so early on.As the vehicle drove away, the two sneaked inside. The space inside was even larger than the lab they had been in before, and the entire lab was filled with an overwhelming stench of blood, along with the sounds of tearing and agonizing cries.The two men knocked out the two men guarding the door, changed into protective suits, and were virtually unrecognizable unless you looked closely. Now they didn't even need to hide from the cameras and swaggered in.The first glass room I saw was where two doctors were cruelly slashing open arms and thighs with knives, blood flowing from the wounds. Despite the person on the bed struggling, they were ruthlessly stuffed into a sack and carried away.
