Chapter 487: Prompt Decision
Translator: Liu_Kaixuan Editor: Valvrave
In the gunner room, Jiang Lius.h.i.+ looked up and heaved a sigh of relief as he had succeeded in killing the level-2 mutant zombie. It was also not a very easy task for Jiang Lius.h.i.+. One wrong move and the outcome would be completely different. Meanwhile, he was quite happy because he now had to harvest the level-2 blood nucleus, which could help him to upgrade his minibus.
Ling jumped out of the window, and in the blink of an eye, she extracted the blood nucleus and quickly returned to the minibus. As soon as the remaining zombies saw the living person, they rushed at her wildly, but they couldn"t even touch Ling"s clothes; she was quite agile. Although the zombies missed their target, they swiftly surrounded the level-2 mutant zombie"s corpse. And then, a cold and frenzied chewing sound came…
Zhang Hai and Sun Kun started approaching the minibus. One was driving, and the other was shooting madly. The earlier battle was way too fierce for them to partic.i.p.ate, but now they could fight to their hearts" content. At the same time, several gunshots came not far from them.
Jiang Lius.h.i.+ saw a group of survivors rus.h.i.+ng out of a small building and fending off a small group of zombies. The survivors" leader was a 17-year-old girl, whose actions were neat and her marksmans.h.i.+p was exceptional. She just raised her gun and accurately shot her targets while running.
Earlier, Ran Xiyu had sensed that there were two groups of people in the area, so Jiang Lius.h.i.+ guessed that should be the second group.
Wei Feifei led her teammates out of the building the moment she saw that Jiang Lius.h.i.+ had killed the mutant zombie and launched a counterattack on the zombies outside.
"That Celestial Pole Team ran away," Ran Xiyu said suddenly.
Jiang Lius.h.i.+ looked back, and he noticed that the other group of people was already gone. "Oh, they made a prompt decision!" Jiang Lius.h.i.+ said with a cold smile. He could tell what Yang Ying was thinking, but he didn"t expect that the other zombie would decide to flee as soon as the mutant zombie was killed.
On another road…
Yang Ying was sitting in his car, which was being driven madly. They hoped to escape as quickly as possible. "
Oh, my G.o.d!" Yang Ying shouted as if he had met a ghost. He had never expected the group of outsiders to be able to kill the level-2 mutant zombie. Yang Ying was tongue-tied by both the minibus" excellent performance and the sniper"s outstanding skill. Fortunately, he had made a wise decision. He had also sensed that there was a psychic paranormal in that team, so he was very nervous and could not help but wonder whether the other party had detected his earlier malicious thoughts. Yang Ying clearly knew that they would all die if that was the case.
"Brother Yang, what should we do next?" asked by his driver. He was also scared to death.
"What? The strong dragon cannot repress a snake! As long as we are still in Jiangning, n.o.body will dare to mess with us!" Yang Ying retorted.
"We are going back to Hejiang Town. I guess lots of teams would be interested in the new one," Yang Ying added. There were plenty of teams in Jiangning. n.o.body would like to see the addition of one more compet.i.tor, which may threaten their vested interests.
…
The fierce battle lasted for ten minutes until they dealt with all the zombies. But they all knew that the tranquility would not be long-lasting as the pungent smell of blood would only attract more zombies from far away.
Wei Feifei gasped softly. The little physical strength that she had recovered had been consumed again.
Peach sensed the mental energy that Ran Xiyu spread, and she immediately realized that the mental power, which clashed with her was the latter. Although she had not the time to ask for help, the team still saved them.
"h.e.l.lo, I am the captain of this squad, Wei Feifei," Wei Feifei walked to Jiang Lius.h.i.+"s minibus and said loudly.
Peach also followed. She was very grateful and said awkwardly, "Thank you for saving us and helping us by getting rid of Yang Ying"s team. They had bad intentions. Be it them or the level-2 mutant zombie that had trapped us, our fate would be one of misery…" Even she could not tell which outcome would be worse.
Jiang Lius.h.i.+ opened the window and looked at the two girls, as well as other survivors behind them. "Don"t mention it. We just wanted to kill the mutant zombie," Jiang Lius.h.i.+ said.
"It doesn"t matter. We still need to thank you," Wei Feifei insisted.
Jiang Lius.h.i.+ just nodded but didn"t say anything.
"Well, I"d like to ask you something," Jiang Lius.h.i.+ said suddenly.
"No problem." Wei Feifei"s cold face suddenly showed some expectation and surprise. In her mind, Jiang Lius.h.i.+"s team was too powerful, and her team was overshadowed by it. She didn"t know how to repay Jiang Lius.h.i.+ for his kindness. Fortunately, Jiang Lius.h.i.+ asked her directly. No matter what Jiang Lius.h.i.+ wanted to ask, she would try her best to answer as long as she knew.
"Where is the military security zone? And where is the survivor"s trading place?" asked Jiang Lius.h.i.+.
Although there were some Special Materials Companies in Jiangning, it was still tough for Jiang Lius.h.i.+ to find all the materials he needed. However, if they could directly buy them from trading markets, it would become easier.
"Oh, the military security zone isn"t in Jiangning City. It may take you about one hour to reach it. As for the trading place, it"s in Hejiang Town, which is located in the suburbs of Jiangning. If you"d like to go there, we could lead you to it. If you"d like to go to the military security zone, you"d better pa.s.s Hejiang Town first," Wei Feifei explained carefully.
Hearing her words, Jiang Lius.h.i.+ looked back to ask the two professors, "Should we go to Hejiang Town first?"
Su Tong just smiled and replied, "Don"t worry about us. Of course, whichever choice is more convenient, that"s the one you should choose."
"That"s good." Jiang Lius.h.i.+ nodded and said to Wei Feifei, "We"ll have to inconvenience you."
"Not at all," Wei Feifei said, "And, may I know your team"s name?"
"s.h.i.+ Ying Squad. And I am Jiang Lius.h.i.+," Jiang Lius.h.i.+ said.
"Okay," Wei Feifei engraved the name and Jiang Lius.h.i.+"s figure in her mind silently. She thought that if she possessed his sharpshooting skills, her team wouldn"t suffer as much today. At least, she would no longer be afraid of Yang Ying.
"Feifei, hurry up. We need to drive." Peach pulled Wei Feifei while waving at Jiang Lius.h.i.+.
"Well, my name is Peach." And then she lowered her head due to shyness. Later, she pulled Wei Feifei to run. Their cars were parked under that small building. Although they were surrounded by mutant zombies, their cars were still okay.
Jiang Lius.h.i.+ had a good impression of Wei Feifei and her team. At least, they knew how to return the hospitality that they had received, instead of running away. That"s why Jiang Lius.h.i.+ decided to accept her advice.
"Brother Jiang, here you are." Ling handed a b.l.o.o.d.y crystal to Jiang Lius.h.i.+.
Jiang Lius.h.i.+ immediately felt that he was holding a beating heart in his hand, which made people feel strange. Even his heartbeat was synchronized with the blood nucleus. Only after putting the blood nucleus into his pocket, did that feeling disappear.
"Feifei, Jiang Lius.h.i.+ is really young. I think he is much more handsome than Yang Ying," Peach took Wei Feifei"s arm and turned to look at that minibus while speaking in a tone full of admiration. When she faced Jiang Lius.h.i.+, she was a little shy and scared, but she had also witnessed the whole process of shooting that mutant zombie. Peach thought Jiang Lius.h.i.+ was as young as herself, but she also felt Jiang Lius.h.i.+ was cool and handsome.
"Why are you telling me this?" Wei Feifei frowned.
"Anthomaniac…" Wei Feifei was speechless.
Peach smiled as she did not mind Wei Feifei"s words.
"Don"t be silly," Wei Feifei said, "In this world, strong paranormal will never be in lack of beauties." Actually, Wei Feifei hoped that none of her members would make dumb decisions.
Peach answered, "Well, Feifei, I know. I just say that…Feifei, you are too serious…If you don"t change, it will be very difficult for you to marry…"
"Haha, I never thought of marrying, especially after the virus outbreak. As long as I am powerful enough, I won"t need to rely on anyone," Wei Feifei answered coldly.
"For G.o.d"s sake, you are only 17 years old, why you have such kind of thoughts? Don"t we have to rely on other people right no-" Peach couldn"t finish that sentence because Wei Feifei had coldly used her hand to cover her mouth. And then she dragged her to a car.
Drive to Hejiang Town!"
