Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse - Chapter 474 - 474 474 D City Base Zombie Tide
Chapter 474: Chapter 474: D City Base Zombie Tide Chapter 474: Chapter 474: D City Base Zombie Tide The family once again took Face-changing pills in the Space and returned to their old business: selling supplies.
At this moment, with a crackling sound, the base’s broadcast system suddenly came alive. This broadcast had only been used once during the early post-apocalyptic period and during the evaluation of the Mercenary Corps. Why was it active again now?
As the noise gradually subsided, a woman’s voice came through: “Hello everyone, I am Yao Rui.”
Su Jin laughed upon hearing this; the timing of the zombies outside was just perfect, wasn’t it? Wasn’t this a legitimate reason?
Perhaps some things are just meant to be…
Yao Rui briefly described the current situation in the base over the broadcast, as many people were still unaware of the present state inside the base.
Colonel Yuan was tied up?
Had he truly been removed from power?
What? Zhang Anguo was also killed by his nemesis?
And the loyalists of Zhang Anguo and Colonel Yuan had been captured as well?
This is good news!!
This calls for a celebration! What exactly had happened just now?
But the words that followed from Yao Rui dampened the spirits of those who wanted to celebrate.
A Zombie Tide had approached the base, and the number of zombies was still increasing. Yao Rui called for the base’s Special Ability Users and those capable of fighting to join the team resisting the Zombie Tide.
“From today, D City base will be different; it is our own base…”
Yao Rui’s voice inspired many who were still waiting in line to buy supplies on the streets, as well as many others lying in bed, their eyes sparkling as they listened to the broadcast coming from outside.
Was D City base really different now?
If they fought a bit more, would it truly be their own base?
Gradually, many people, leaning on walls or strolling leisurely, headed towards the base’s entrance, only to discover a row of porridge tables halfway there, along with the familiar faces of Zhang Xiaohong and others.
“Thank you, Xiaohong, Da Ming,”
Yao Rui said. She had just suggested to Zhang Xiaohong and the others the idea of setting up a free porridge stall not far from the city gate. The expenses would be settled according to Zhang Xiaohong’s request after the Zombie Tide had passed. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiaohong and her group had agreed without any hesitation and had even set out ten large pots of thick rice porridge.
“Don’t mention it, since you’re going to pay.”
Su Jin replied with a smile.
Previously, Lin Yunguo and Li Xiuying had entered the Space and immediately busied themselves with cooking the rice porridge. Cooking porridge was not difficult. Initially, they thought they had cooked too much at once, but they didn’t expect it to be utilized so soon.
The family did not refuse this proposition; after all, once the Zombie Tide had passed, D City base would gain another batch of Crystal Cores.
Hearing that Zhang Xiaohong and her group were offering free porridge to the Survivors willing to join in resisting the Zombie Tide, many people gathered around.
Yao Rui also had Metal Element Ability Users set up a row of railings in front of the porridge stall. Those willing to participate in resisting the Zombie Tide could enter the railing and receive a bowl of rice porridge. After eating their fill and gaining strength, they could then proceed to the city wall as instructed, either above or outside it, to fight the zombies.
Of course, those who participated in killing zombies would have the right to an equal share of the Crystal Cores after the Zombie Tide.
No Special Ability User hesitated; they all walked directly into the railing area and received a bowl of thick porridge.
Su Jin used disposable paper bowls, which were not small, and since they were filled with porridge made from Spatial Water and rice grown in the Space, including mountain yam to boost health and vitality, many Special Ability Users felt their strength returning immediately after eating the porridge.
Indeed, they had all been too hungry before.
“Why do I feel like every time we arrive at a base, there’s a zombie tide happening?”
Lin Xiuyuan started to ponder—could it be that their family had a physique that attracted zombie tides?
“Don’t overthink it, it’s just a coincidence, okay?”
Huang Yunxiang said as she helped someone serve porridge.
“It really seems so, but not in City E and Dawn,”
Su Jin also started to chat with their family while working. The feeling of legitimately skipping out because of the zombie tide felt really good, even though there was gradually a long queue forming behind them for porridge.
Lin Yunguo and Li Xiuying also wanted to come out to distribute porridge, but they discovered that the porridge was being consumed too quickly outside, and they had to keep cooking in the space, thankful that time in there was different from the outside, otherwise, the family would really worry about running out of porridge.
Lu Guanhai and Nie Qing also came running down from the city wall, wanting to see the zombie tide in City D.
“How is it outside?” Lu Hao asked.
“Not too many now, but there are still some zombies running over, probably because the bloody smell under the city gate won’t dissipate anytime soon,”
Lu Guanhai answered.
“I think it’s all minor stuff, not even as many as those outside the small base of the Xing family’s big brother,”
Nie Qing said. At this time, the D City base was really all about unity, and they didn’t have to worry about the outside anymore.
“Wait for me here for a bit, I’ll go back to take a rest and check on Xiao Cui,”
Thinking of the zombie tide, Su Jin remembered Xiao Cui, who had just eaten a bomb…
Xiao Cui should be fine, right?
Feeling a bit uneasy, Su Jin still went back to the room in the North Courtyard and flashed into the space.
A tender green sprout appeared in Su Jin’s hand, smelling the aroma of the rice porridge in the space, Su Jin softly greeted Xiao Cui.
Although she didn’t know where Xiao Cui was digesting the stuff, it seemed like Xiao Cui was completely fine, just a bit eager to eat zombies.
“Xiao Cui, hold off for a while, after it gets dark outside tonight, I’ll sneak you out,”
To thank Xiao Cui for swallowing a bomb today, Su Jin did not refuse Xiao Cui’s request.
Xiao Cui twisted its waist gleefully, as joyful as a child who had received candy.
Reassured, Su Jin then flashed out of the space and headed to the porridge distribution stall. There were still many Special Ability Users walking slowly toward the direction of the city gate. When they saw the free porridge and the handwritten instructions, they couldn’t help but marvel.
They just wanted to release their last bits of Special Abilities; perhaps after their physical strength and Special Abilities were exhausted, they might not be able to hold up anymore.
They didn’t expect to also receive free porridge?
“Brother, to our own base, cheers,”
A survivor said to another as he lifted up his porridge bowl.
“Cheers, let’s hang in there!”
Paper bowls clinked, and the survivors were gulping down the still-warm porridge as they looked towards the direction of the base’s city gate.
Yao Rui had actually had people tie up Yuan Hongying and some of his loyalists on top of the city wall.
She wanted to show these so-called rulers from the past to see that without them, the survivors inside the base could indeed unite more effectively, no matter how difficult things were, they could overcome them together.
