Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse - Chapter 842: Passive Han Yue
Chapter 842: Chapter 842: Passive Han Yue
At the temporary residence of Han Yue’s group, Xu Zhixin anxiously paced back and forth inside the room. Despite all their careful planning, they hadn’t anticipated that the S City base would forbid them from watching the battle on the city wall.
“Without observing the situation outside, how will we know if those zombies have been successfully transformed?”
Xu Zhixin said angrily.
“It doesn’t matter, as long as the zombie tide comes, our goal will be achieved.”
Han Yue suppressed his inner anxiety and unease. Now, the story had spread throughout the S City base, claiming that someone had deliberately fed the zombies enhancers. The base was currently hunting down the culprit.
So, has Liang Jiuhui discovered it?
“What does it matter if he did? There’s no way to leave evidence for something like this. As long as we don’t admit it, we’ll be fine.”
Xu Zhixin said. When he carried out those tasks, no one at all saw, and he had also taken care of those few people afterward.
Han Yue nodded: “You’re right, even if they suspect me, they can’t just frame me without evidence.”
Besides, in just a few days, once the zombie tide recedes, it will be time for them to execute their final step and leave.
“Wang Liang, has Su Jin from the Heart Talk Team been staying in the villa these past few days?”
Han Yue asked.
“Yes, from what I’ve observed, she’s been staying there alone.”
Wang Liang replied.
“That’s good.”
Han Yue was satisfied, as it seemed that everything was progressing according to their plan without any deviations.
However, around noon, a broadcast sounded within the base, surprisingly it was Liang Jiuhui’s voice.
“Fellow citizens, in light of the special situation of this zombie siege, I hope that everyone is mentally prepared for a prolonged battle. Based on the current number of zombies, our base might be surrounded by this tide for up to a month!”
With these words, the entire base was stirred up — a month?!
“But please don’t worry, the material reserves in the base have been prepared for this. The Heart Talk Team has also stated that they will use all their resources to support and back the zombie tide fight. As long as you’re a member of the S City base and participate in combating this zombie tide, the base will not let you go hungry into battle!”
“Lastly, I hope everyone can improve their strength during this zombie tide, and enhance their special abilities to the next level!”
Liang Jiuhui’s speech was short, but after the broadcast was switched off, instead of feeling unhappy about the month-long siege, everyone seemed unperturbed.
The Base Leader had assured them that the base had reserves, and the Heart Talk Team would support the base — all they needed to do was kill zombies. Though dangerous, it was an opportunity to enhance their strength.
This was practically a full retreat training session for the entire base, wasn’t it!
However, Han Yue and Xu Zhixin became restless after hearing the broadcast — a month!
“Those guys, Sun Yuan and his crew, attracted that many zombies?”
Han Yue’s brows furrowed into a deep line as he still wasn’t aware of Han Zhimin’s current condition and B City’s Han Family was waiting for him to bring resources back. With only Han Jin and a few others holding the fort over there, if he stayed here for more than a month, who knows what would become of B City base!
“Did you hear? Heart Talk Team is willing to use all their resources!! They’re going to use everything on this zombie tide?”
Xu Zhixin could hardly believe it. Was the Heart Talk Team stupid?
“I never thought there would be this many zombies in this tide.”
Han Yue knew that Liang Jiuhui’s words in the broadcast were true, as he could sense it. This zombie tide had significantly more than the last one. He just hadn’t expected Liang Jiuhui to estimate it lasting for a month.
“How about letting Zuo Sen and the others aid them?”
Xu Zhixin suggested, thinking at least it would speed up the process a bit.
“Not advisable, if we proceed to the next step of the plan, it might affect it.”
Han Yue rejected the proposal.
Currently, they could only take it one step at a time. Neither of them anticipated that their grand plan would render them the passive players. Presently, both were fervently wishing for the S City base’s zombie tide to end promptly…
On the third morning of the zombie tide, the city gates were finally opened. Led by the Heart Talk Team and the Guard Squad Members, they were the first to clear the battlefield area, signaling the official start of the entire base’s resistance against the zombie tide.
Spurt!
Lin Xiuyuan exhausted the last of his special abilities to eliminate a Level Six Earth Element Zombie, finally retreating from the battlefield on his own accord.
“Are you alright?”
Jiang Yixiao, who was queuing outside the door, asked with concern.
“I’m fine, just need to rest a bit.”
Sweaty and fatigued, Lin Xiuyuan managed a smile and staggered toward their vehicle.
Jiang Yixiao nodded and eagerly looked outside, knowing that soon it would be the turn for their Water Element trainees and Thunder Element trainees to appear!
Just now, Lin Cheng and Mao Qiqi had already gotten onto the vehicle, leaving only Lu Hao still holding on in the field.
Inside the vehicle, upon seeing Lin Xiuyuan return, Su Jin immediately handed him a cup of Spatial Water before starting to replenish his special abilities. The energy absorbed by the twelve Mutant Man-eating Flowers was no joke, so whenever someone returned to the vehicle to rest, she would refill their abilities immediately to make herself feel better.
“Thanks, brother-in-law should be coming back soon, too. My god, it’s so hot.”
Lin Xiuyuan simply stripped off his soaked shirt, wondering how those wearing battle clothes — special ability users and Guard Squad Members — could bear it. But compared to the heat, life was more important, indeed. free\we\bnov(e)(l).com
Su Jin’s vine briefly wrapped around Lin Xiuyuan’s wrist, and he soon felt rejuvenated within. A glance at Lu Guanhai, who returned first, also seemed to have fully recovered.
“In a while, it’ll be noon. I want to go and help.”
Su Jin said. The Heart Talk Team had begun fighting since around five in the morning, and it was now 11:00 a.m., almost the hottest time of the day. Quite a few had been carried back with heatstroke earlier, which she noticed with her own eyes.
“Xiao Jin, we’ll go with you.”
Lin Cheng said.
Seeing the family huddling around Su Jin to get off the vehicle, Liao Yifan also jumped down from the car beside them, following after hearing Su Jin’s intentions.
The people on the city wall endured the scorching sun while watching the battle below, some using parasols, yet most braving the heat directly.
Suddenly, a sun-blocking shadow was cast from above.
People looked up in shock to see vines with large leaves spreading out from inside the city wall. They grew rapidly, eventually casting a shadow and providing everyone with a cooler shade.
“Isn’t that Captain Su Jin? She’s thinking of us even at a time like this!”
“It must be Su Jin, it feels much cooler instantly.”
“Ahhh, Su Jin, I love you, now I won’t have to worry about getting roasted into charcoal!”
“…”
