Chapter 858: Zombie King’s Greetings
Chapter 858: Chapter 858: Zombie King’s Greetings
"By the way, after you return to the safe base, and once you’ve handled everything there, it’d be best if you could make a trip to the Alliance. There’s something I need you to help deliver to the border."
Captain Zhang turned his head to look at the Base Commander.
The items in question were the medicine pills.
Almost every survivor in Huaxia has taken these pills, granting them resistance to the zombie virus. Over the past year, they haven’t had to fear infection from the zombie virus.
But in other countries, they have no great clans, no Fusang Tree, and no medicine pills.
If we want to bring complete stability to the world, we can’t just stabilize ourselves alone.
The pills are being sold to them at the price of one ordinary crystal core per pill.
There’s no such thing as making dishonest profits on crystal cores.
When Captain Zhang foresaw the many thousands of paths the future might take, their possession of the zombie virus antidote did not bode well for the people in the Huaxia region.
A single ordinary crystal core is not worth much to them and has become leverage for their control over the post-apocalyptic power dynamics.
This was a result of Captain Zhang’s careful deliberation.
It provides them with something they can afford, and also something they can rely on to establish themselves.
The time left to him is running short, and his capacity to protect this land is also limited.
No matter what, there should be some thorough plans made for this land.
"I understand,"
The Base Commander nodded slightly, understanding Captain Zhang’s intentions.
He reached out his hand, ready to shake hands and say goodbye to Captain Zhang.
Captain Zhang glanced at the Base Commander’s outstretched fingers but didn’t extend his hand in return, only giving a faint smile.
"I’m not a woman, so don’t even think about taking advantage of me."
This joke made the Base Commander chuckle, without any awkwardness or other thoughts.
Mostly because Captain Zhang’s behavior was too normal, making it impossible for anyone to associate him with being a zombie.
Captain Zhang shot a deep glance at the Bai Family, his gaze landing on Bai Xiqin.
He slightly moved his stiff lips, as if wanting to say something.
Yet he said nothing, only sending Bai Xiqin a flirtatious wink in his usual ’wishing to be pampered’ manner.
But the flirtatious look was now devoid of any soul, only a mechanical mimicry of the action.
Bai Xiqin pulled a corner of her mouth into a smile without saying anything.
Just like how Captain Zhang knew she had space, but as long as she didn’t admit it, neither side would bring it up directly.
Captain Zhang also knew Leng Yebai and Bai Xiqin were aware he was a zombie, but no one verbally acknowledged it.
Just an alter ego, nothing major.
Things known yet unspoken, to leave just a sliver of dignity for both parties.
Captain Zhang wasn’t sure how much longer he could keep his identity hidden, so he’d hide it for as long as possible.
However, as long as he was ’alive’ for one more day, he would remain the chief captain of the Human Survivor Alliance.
A gentle breeze fluttered by.
Captain Zhang quickly disappeared, just like before; his speed was unseen, undetectable to the naked eye.
"I’ll stay behind and handle things here. You all can head back first!"
Zhang Yiming glanced in the direction Captain Zhang left, smiling as he spoke to the Bai Family.
The zombie sea creatures had already been completely intimidated by Captain Zhang. There’s no need to worry about them climbing ashore.
However, a few old monsters remained hidden, unable to be flushed out, so some preparations needed to be made in advance.
Those old monsters had been living in the depths of the ocean for an unknown number of years, and now as zombies, they were even more troublesome than ordinary giant sea beasts.
They intentionally avoided Zhang Yiming, and now deliberately avoided Captain Zhang, always hiding, afraid their brainwaves would be controlled, turning them into slaves for slaughter.
"Alright."
Bai Xiqin had just responded when Leng Yebai pulled her back to the first floor of the bus, seating her on the sofa.
Someone always thought that certain Zombie Emperors had ulterior motives, not wanting Xiao Niu to spend too much time with him.
Zhang Yiming didn’t mind, smiling as he looked at Bai Xiqin, before turning to leave.
The bus restarted, after the incident of ’zombies and humans working together’ for the first time; everyone was heading back to the safe base.
Though it was said that humans and zombies collaborated, it was actually just the cooperation between top superpower users and high-ranking zombies.
The sea of Shanghai was like this, and so were the seas in other regions.
The reality was simply that harsh.
The strongest individuals had the right to speak, and no matter how loud the majority were, they didn’t possess the absolute combat power to express their stance.
Just like when Captain Zhang spoke of human-zombie cooperation, even if other deputy captains of the Alliance opposed, they had no choice but to reluctantly accept.
"Xiao Qunqun!"
Just as the bus drove off the beach and onto the highway, Bai Yifan abruptly hit the brakes.
Several figures emerged in front of the bus.
That blue figure was particularly striking, with a stunning face and tall stature.
It was clearly Xiao Lan Zombie at first glance.
Beside Xiao Lan Zombie were several others, including Fan Tangtang, Zombie King Xiao Li, and even Zombie King Li Mucheng who once targeted Bai Xiqin’s family.
A total of four Zombie Kings.
In any region, they’d be able to stir up a storm.
But for the Bai Family, it felt like old friends reuniting.
Especially for Bai Yifan, upon seeing Zombie King Li Mucheng, there was a strong sense of familiarity.
Probably because Bai Yifan had beaten up Zombie King Li Mucheng before, finding strong confidence from it.
The bus door opened without hesitation, letting them straight onto the bus.
The bus parked by the roadside, with everyone and many Zombie Kings squeezing into the living room, creating a lively atmosphere.
"Sister Tu, long time no see. Didn’t you say you’d come and hang out when you’re free? Are you free these two days? And have you seen Brother Zhang recently?"
Fan Tangtang spoke to Bai Xiqin in a sweet voice, her big eyes blinking with an air of anticipation.
If possible, it would be best to kill Brother Zhang now.
Because if Brother Zhang doesn’t die now, once he comes back, she’ll have to redo a lot of worksheets.
Those math problems were really hard, and Brother Zhang was truly scary.
Xiao Tangtang expressed that she really welcomed Xiao Qunqun to give Brother Yiming a good beating!
"Yeah, maybe come hang out with us for a few days,"
Xiao Lan Zombie also fervently suggested.
Zombie King Xiao Li and Zombie Li Mucheng, having little in common with the Bai Family, could only stand silently by.
Not daring to speak indiscriminately.
Afraid of getting beaten to death.
The Bai Family might not be able to kill them on the spot, but Zhang Yiming could, so they tried to reduce their presence as much as possible.
At this moment, they were slightly curious about why Xiao Lan Zombie and the most pampered Fan Tangtang were so eager for Xiao Niu to go there?
They naturally knew Bai Xiqin’s importance to Zhang Yiming, but what was the point of having her over?
Were they trying to please the boss?
It didn’t make sense!
If it was about pleasing the boss, why not go when the boss was around, but instead wait until he left the Bai Family and then come to chat with them?
They didn’t understand, it was very confusing.
The brainwaves of Zombie King Xiao Li and Zombie Li Mucheng slightly spilled out, merging with those of Xiao Lan Zombie and Fan Tangtang.
It was as if they were having a secret discussion.
After a round of communication.
Zombie King Li Mucheng and Zombie King Xiao Li stood frozen for a moment, then took a step back in unison.
They truly didn’t expect this!
Xiao Lan Zombie and Fan Tangtang’s ideas were so audacious?
They quietly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, not daring to express any opinions.
