Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse - Chapter 825: Killing Zombies

Chapter 825: Chapter 825: Killing Zombies

“No way, Li Haochu would be more than happy to welcome them. These past few days he has been seeking out Rong Yuan and his team, fearing that the trainees might encounter danger,”

Liao Yifan also thought this was a good idea and so he said.

If Captain Lu isn’t leading a team out, it’s indeed more dangerous outside. It would be better to let Lin Xiuyuan and his group join them, that way everyone stays safe.

“You truly don’t plan to go out?”

Su Jin asked, tilting her head at Lu Hao. Actually, she didn’t have anything to do at the base on her own either.

“Yes, to keep you company,”

Lu Hao said firmly. The reason was that he had found himself constantly worrying about Su Jin whenever he was away recently, probably due to the nervousness about her upcoming surgery and the birth of their child. So, he had simply decided to stay close to her at all times.

“Well, if Xiao Hao is staying at home with Xiao Jin, we can rest easy. Today, we’ll also go out and fight!”

Su Xiangzhe felt invigorated throughout his body. Every time the Zombie Tide base lost some survivors, seeing new names added to those memorial stones made him no longer wish to encounter the Zombie Tide.

Seeing everyone so motivated, Su Jin also began to prepare food and supplies for everyone. With so many trainees and Li Haochu’s group accompanying them, she had nothing to worry about.

“Thankfully, our base has recruited some healers, as the number of casualties has indeed increased these days,”

Lin Tianhui also said with a frown, indicating that everyone in the base had developed a sense of crisis, which was even more pronounced in their hospital.

“Mom, I think I want to go see Doctor Liu and the others today, to ask about Xiao Jin’s condition,”

Lu Hao said.

“Sure, you can just come to me when the time comes, I’ll take you,”

Lin Tianhui was quite happy to see her son-in-law so concerned about her daughter’s condition, especially since she had some questions to ask Liu Mo herself.

…

When Li Haochu found out that some members of the Heart Talk Team wanted to accompany the team on an outing, he was very welcoming. Although most of this group of trainees had been selected from the Guard Squad, they indeed lacked actual combat experience; he had always been concerned about them facing danger.

Even without the presence of Su Jin and Lu Hao, the overall strength of the Heart Talk Team was clear to all. To allow the teams to learn more from fighting zombies, he had even distributed Lin Xiuyuan and several others across different element-based teams.

Because there were so few Ice-Element Ability Users, there wasn’t a separate training team just for them, so Lin Xiuyuan and Huang Yunxiang were assigned to the team of Water-Element trainees. Lin Cheng, Su Xiangzhe, and Nie Qing were also placed similarly, but fortunately, all these teams fought together, so their families did not find it inconvenient.

“We’ll trouble you all today. I’ve already applied to the higher-ups so that seventy percent of the Crystal Cores obtained by the training squad today will belong to the Heart Talk Team,”

Li Haochu said to the family with a smile.

“Thanks a lot then, haha,”

Consistent with the Heart Talk Team’s spirit of never refusing Crystal Cores, Huang Yunxiang immediately responded.

“Yes, of course, of course,”

Li Haochu laughed heartily, truly not being pretentious at all…

Lin Xiuyuan was satisfied as he boarded the bus with Huang Yunxiang for the Water-Element trainees. Knowing they were members of the Heart Talk Team, each of the trainees felt especially excited – their performance today would be seen by the members of the Heart Talk Team!

Perhaps they would even receive guidance from the powerhouse of the Heart Talk Team!

“Good morning, Auntie…”

A polite and familiar voice came through, and Huang Yunxiang turned to see that it was Jiang Yixiao, who they had met before.

During the past few months, after learning about Heart Talk Team’s reputation at the S City base, Jiang Yixiao felt some pressure when seeing someone familiar in this kind of setting. She feared that greeting them might seem like she was trying to make connections but not greeting them would be impolite. So, she decided to greet Huang Yunxiang first.

“Good morning! It’s a coincidence that you’re here too, you child,”

Huang Yunxiang said with a smile, remembering that Jiang Yixiao seemed to be from the previous batch of trainees.

“Auntie, I joined the team quite late, and I lack combat experience, so our Captain Lu has helped me apply for an extension,”

Jiang Yixiao replied embarrassingly.

“I see,”

Huang Yunxiang nodded.

“Weren’t you quite formidable?”

Lin Xiuyuan was also somewhat surprised; he hadn’t expected to encounter an acquaintance here.

“That’s because I’m… better at killing people. When it comes to zombies, I always hesitate, heh heh,”

Feeling the envious glances from those around her, Jiang Yixiao said with an even redder face.

The young men and women surrounding Jiang Yixiao were surprised to find she knew someone from the Heart Talk Team; indeed, their “Koi Girl” was really different.

“Are you feeling hot? Here, this is for you,”

Seeing Jiang Yixiao’s flushed face, Lin Xiuyuan extended his palm to conjure up an ice block and gestured to hand it to Jiang Yixiao.

Huang Yunxiang immediately felt her son was being somewhat embarrassing to watch; even she could tell that Jiang Yixiao was embarrassed by the attention from people around, and here was Lin Xiuyuan drawing even more attention to her.

“Thank you, Lin Xiuyuan,”

Jiang Yixiao decided not to feel embarrassed anymore and accepted it graciously.

“You’re welcome,”

Lin Xiuyuan responded with satisfaction and continued to turn and chat with Huang Yunxiang, while the last to board, Water Element training team Captain Qu Wenting, upon seeing the two at the back, also walked over with a smile and greeted them.

“We’re setting off now. We’ll probably start disembarking to clear out zombies in about half an hour,”

Qu Wenting said.

“So soon? Isn’t it less than half an hour to the city center?”

Huang Yunxiang asked in surprise.

“It’s not the city center, but once we get there, it will be very dangerous. Yesterday, a 10-person squad returned with only two survivors,”

Qu Wenting described with a frown. If a Zombie Tide was really coming, all they could do now was to try to kill off as many zombies as possible to relieve some pressure on the base.

“You’re making me want to get off and kill a few right now. These zombies are like cockroaches; you just can’t kill them all,”

Lin Xiuyuan wanted to roll up his sleeves and get to work, though of course, he wasn’t wearing any at the moment.

“I’ve heard there might have been deliberate guidance of the zombies,”

Qu Wenting spoke in a lowered voice.

“Deliberate guidance?”

Somehow, Lin Xiuyuan and Huang Yunxiang thought of the same person in the base, but then they quickly dismissed the thought. Given Han Yue was also in the base, it would be unlikely for him to create danger for himself. If the S City base faced a Zombie Tide, a second evaluation of bounty hunter teams wouldn’t be happening anytime soon.

“But these are all just rumors, with no evidence, so we shouldn’t panic. Let’s just take it one step at a time,”

Seeing their thoughtful expressions, Qu Wenting thought she might have said something wrong and quickly explained.

“Don’t worry, we understand,”

Lin Xiuyuan replied with a smile.
