Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse - Chapter 723: Handsome
Chapter 723: Chapter 723: Handsome
David and his team had grown accustomed to this.
Hanson’s Team was famously standoffish because it was comprised of the base’s most powerful Special Ability Users and served as Xius’s personal team, so they had long since drawn clear lines distinguishing themselves from ordinary teams.
“Very good, I hope they continue being arrogant and don’t ask me anything about clothing,”
Abby muttered as she killed zombies, thankful that the suit only protected her neck and below. If it came with a hood, it would have been even more offensive to the eyes.
“Nice figure,”
Paul said with a smile, whistling at the two sisters; the bodysuit really suited the ladies.
“Shut up, Paul,”
Avril feigned anger and scolded, but in her heart, she felt less averse to the bodysuit, thinking it would be better if it were a different color.
There weren’t many zombies blocking them, so Mao Qiqi finally got her family’s permission to go down and kill a few zombies.
Qiao finally understood why the Heart Talk Team would bring this little girl along; she was no weaker than anyone else, her reactions even remarkably agile.
“Huaxia Kung Fu?”
Morris pointed at Mao Qiqi from inside the vehicle and asked.
“Just some zombie-killing skills,”
Lu Hao responded.
Qiqi hadn’t undergone professional training; all her moves were accumulated bit by bit in real combat. From simple imitation at the beginning to later finding the moves that suited her best, it was all on her own.
“Impressive,”
Morris gave a thumbs up.
Morris took the opportunity to introduce Hanson’s team outside and the Special Ability Level of each member to the Heart Talk Team.
“That man with the aquiline nose is Hanson. He’s currently the highest-level Special Ability User in the base, Fire Element Level Six,”
Morris pointed outside the window as he spoke.
“Very impressive,”
Su Jin nodded. Considering the overall level in Country Y, the fact that Hanson had advanced to Level Six was indeed impressive. However, when Su Jin and Lu Hao saw the Fire Element ability he used, they exchanged a glance, both seeing the doubt in each other’s eyes.
That level… Level Six?
Although the two teams were clearing different areas, due to the small number of zombies, it took less than half an hour to deal with them, and Mao Qiqi finally got back on the vehicle feeling refreshed and sat down at ease.
“We’ll be there in another hour,”
Qiao said, knowing they had to hurry. If they couldn’t make it back by night, staying outside would be extremely dangerous.
…
By around noon, the two vehicles finally arrived at a place that resembled a village, but both vehicles stopped on the wasteland next to the village entrance.
“Zombie Cockroaches are very sensitive. If we get too close, there’s a risk of being immediately surrounded by them. The breeding facility is right above the village in front of us,”
Qiao explained.
“I got it, I can start from here,”
Su Jin looked around and then spoke.
“Hanson is coming over,”
David reminded them at that moment.
Just as Su Jin was about to promote the growth of Mutated Moss, a large shadow suddenly blocked the light, and she instinctively looked up at the burly man who had just gotten on and approached her.
“Are you Su Jin?”
Hanson asked.
“Yes, I am,”
Stopping her task, Su Jin was puzzled about what he wanted, while Lu Hao also stood up, protecting her side.
“You’ll come with us to our vehicle. We know the nest’s location best,”
Hanson cracked his knuckles, speaking provocatively, though his gaze was fixed on Lu Hao in front of him.
“I think it’s unnecessary. I can start from here. There’s no need to get too close, and you all don’t have to risk getting inside,”
Su Jin frowned as she replied.
“Hanson, we understand Miss Su’s special ability. Indeed, she can start by using her ability, and we’ll decide what to do next based on the situation,”
Qiao also stood up, trying to mediate the situation.
“No, she must come with us.”
Hanson pointed his finger at Su Jin, his tone commanding.
“Who do you think you are, acting so high and mighty? Be careful, or I’ll beat you up,”
Lin Xiuyuan had understood a few words and, guessing Hanson’s intentions from his actions, wondered why their Su Jin should go to their vehicle. Also, this person was being unfriendly, wasn’t he?
Meanwhile, Hanson completely ignored Lin Xiuyuan’s Huaxia speech and reached out his hand to grab Su Jin’s wrist.
Bang!
Morris was scared stiff, tightly grabbing Reese beside him. What did he see?!
Mr. Lu, Lu Hao, he actually kicked Hanson right off the vehicle!
“You—stay away from her,”
Lu Hao spoke down coldly to Hanson, who was kicked onto the ground outside the vehicle. It was clear to anyone that he was quite angry.
“Wow, that was so cool,”
Avril had not expected this usually quiet man to be so protective of his woman. But that kick just now was really handsome.
Except for Su Jin and Mao Qiqi, the whole family had stood up and walked behind Lu Hao.
Looking for trouble? A fight? They weren’t afraid.
“Hanson, if today’s operation fails, you won’t benefit either,”
Qiao also recovered from his shock, but he still chose to stand by Su Jin and her party.
Hanson’s gaze darkened as he looked towards Lu Hao, and at that moment, Leo from the lead vehicle started shouting.
Zombie Cockroaches are swarming in droves!
“David, close the door!”
Qiao immediately yelled.
“Everyone, protect yourselves,”
Su Jin no longer cared about Hanson outside and quickly prompted the growth of the mutated moss.
Seeing a green carpet of moss spreading beneath his feet, Hanson quickly returned to the off-road vehicle in the front.
Su Jin did not allow the mutated moss to harm Hanson—after all, now was not the time. After David closed the door, he moved the vehicle a bit to the side, making sure it wouldn’t block the view from the front.
“He’s lucky,”
Lu Guanhai settled back into his seat. He thought Lu Hao’s kick was too light; he had wanted to give Hanson another myself, but the Zombie Cockroaches had arrived.
“True to its reputation as a nest, there are loads of them,”
Su Jin said as she looked at the much denser swarm of Zombie Cockroaches compared to what they had seen before in Tawa City and Ouk City.
The denser they are, the slower the mutated moss consumes them. If only she had acted earlier. She hadn’t expected the Zombie Cockroaches to arrive so quickly.
“Need help?”
Lu Hao asked.
“Not for now,”
Su Jin said while looking at the swarm of Zombie Cockroaches that were nearly reaching the two vehicles.
She manipulated her wood element ability to transform the mutated moss into a green wall over half a person tall. The height of the wall could effectively slow down the speed at which the Zombie Cockroaches climbed, and as they did, they could be completely consumed by the moss growing on the wall.
“Sister Xiao Jin, mutant animals are coming, and they’re fast,”
Mao Qiqi whispered to Su Jin. Although she couldn’t distinguish whether the animal was a mutant animal or a zombie animal, the place ahead was unlikely to have mutant animals, so she was sure it was a zombie animal. But could the animal be flying? Why else would it be so fast!
