Volume 3 Chapter 75 The exploration team
Jiangcheng is a paradise built by Shao Qing. Although she didn’t know why Jiangcheng has not been polluted for some reason, this was her greatest advantage.
Shao Qing couldn’t bear to see the people in a terrible situation, but she still had to bear it. She wouldn’t turn the whole Jiangcheng into a savior base because of her unbearableness.
When people have the strength and the capital to be Virgin Mary, it’s the people’s fortune. But if they do not have the strength to be the Virgin Mary but continue to force themselves then it isn’t Virgin Mary but, Sheng Mu Biao*.
* translates to virgin mary prost.i.tute but the meaning is someone who doesn’t have a bottom line in tolerance and forgiveness and all actions revolving around love and goodness that eventually hurts others
Shao Qing didn’t mind being a Virgin Mary once in a while, but she doesn’t want to be a Sheng Mu Biao, because a Sheng Mu Biao would hurt the people closest to them.
After Tang Tiande returned, Shao Qing took him and reinforced the circle outside the city wall and planted a lot of mutant plants with great lethality. The reason why she reinforced it again and again was because she was really worried. If she didn’t come back, if the group of high-level zombies didn’t retreat, no one knew what would happen.
So she couldn’t help but find one kind of mutant plant after another, and plant a circle outside Jiangcheng. This was only the first defense project. Besides that, she also made a bunch of other traps. Only when Jiang Cheng’s defensive power reached the highest, could she feel rest a.s.sured.
Just as Shao Qing was leading people to build Jiangcheng, the secret spies arrived. The spies came here with great difficulty as it required a lot of courage to come to Jiangcheng.
After all, Jiangcheng was a well known zombie city. They just arrived near Jiangcheng, then they began to observe Jiangcheng in this state.
Their luck was pretty good. Traps and other things have just been initially set up and Shao Qing and the others were not outside, otherwise they will definitely be found.
“There are only zombies!” Someone took binoculars and complained after watching it for a long time. Only the zombies patrolling back and forth can be seen in the city.
“The higher ups must have gotten the wrong information. How could there be a fresh vegetable planting base inside? Look at the number of zombies on the wall, living people can’t get in at all, not to mention farming. It must be a mistake.” Someone murmured.
“What’s the rush, check it out slowly, who knows what’s going on inside.” The leader said coldly: “You don’t know what’s the situation now. Finding that base will allow us to receive a great reward, don’t be so impatient. It would be weird to find it so easily.”
The other people were silent at once.
The current situation is really so bad that it can’t get worse, otherwise the upper levels would not treat a dead horse like a doctor and send them out to investigate.
Another person immediately whispered: “Hey, where do you think the source of the vegetable base is? It is hidden and tucked so well as if for fear of others to know. The situation outside is so bad nowadays, if there is really a base that has control of land that is not polluted, even if it is not announced, it should be possible for them to take advantage of this opportunity. However, I have never seen anyone stand up.”
“Who knows, just focus on your work.” One of them sighed: “If you can find the vegetable planting base, then everything will be fine. It will be troublesome if we can’t find it.”
Several people frowned. If they really can’t find it, the tops will definitely not have a good impression. They all relied on that to eat. They might lose their job.
“Hey, look!” Suddenly someone’s eyes lit up, he almost jumped out of where he was hiding. The others immediately looked in the direction he was pointing.
Jiangcheng didn’t have any gates or anything. After the last days when Yin Ye moved over, he led his brothers and sisters to repair Jiangcheng.
Especially in the periphery, the city wall was built with stones and gates were built to encircle Jiangcheng. This is how Jiangcheng is today.
Now the city gate suddenly opened, and several senior zombies came out. The leader was a young lady. One couldn’t tell whether she was a superhuman or a zombie.
This young lady was naturally Gu Panpan. Gu Panpan came out this time with a group of zombie brothers, preparing to go out of the city to hunt.
The car they drove out was a large truck that could hold many, many things.
Although the planting base and vegetable planting base has been well arranged, the animals in the farm are still scattered and few in number.
So they were going out this time to catch more mutant animals to fill the farm. Before leaving, Shao Qing had stated as long as the mutant animals can be eaten, no matter what species, they should be brought back and raised.
She’s not afraid of having too many mutant animals. Anyway, they were to be raised locally. If one farm is not enough, they’ll just open another. Anyway, Jiangcheng is a big place and everywhere is empty. It doesn’t matter if they open up ten more farms.
The bigger fear is if they can’t catch the mutant animal.
“There are people in Jiangcheng…” Someone was surprised. His gla.s.ses fell to the ground. At first they couldn’t tell whether Gu Panpan was a human or a zombie. But when all the zombies got in the car, Gu Panpan stood on the roof of the car very proudly and shouted to go.
When the last days have developed to the point where they are now, zombies have become more and more like human beings, but they couldn’t speak, let alone speak so fluently. It is basically certain that Gu Panpan was human.
Everyone was stunned. Since the end of the world, they have never seen people and zombies living in peace.
This was no longer something that can be described with the word peace. Everyone couldn’t stop marveling. They all wanted to know what kind of ability Gu Panpan has to ensure that the zombies will not attack her. This is incredible.
A few trucks rumbled away, leaving behind a group of people looking at each other. Finally, the leader gritted his teeth and beckoned, they all followed. Only two people stayed to see if there would be other things occurring.
Gu Panpan did not discover anyone following them. After all, no one had the guts to follow a group of high-level zombies. It wasn’t just one, it was a group.
Most people would take a detour when they saw this, so as not to lose their own lives. As a result, the few people who did the opposite followed them quietly.
After arriving at the place, Gu Panpan was the first to walk down. The high-level zombies at the back also followed. Among the high-level zombies that came out this time, a few of them were modified at the beginning. They were almost the same as normal people and had their own emotions. Except for being unable to speak, everything else was almost the same as a normal person.
In addition to these high-level zombies, there were also some fourth and fifth rank, which were specially brought out to do hard labour.
These rank 4 and rank 5 zombies were led by those high-level zombies. Almost for each high-level zombie, there were three to four rank four or five zombies next to them. They did not look like they were to be trifled with.
After the teams were divided, each high-rank zombie, with his own zombie team, began to hunt.
There were five or six hunting teams. The remaining Gu Panpan walked here and there with Xiao Yu who was looking around out of curiosity.
They occasionally picked something similar to wild vegetables, which can be taken back to Shao Qing. At night, Shao Qing can make a delicious dinner for them.
Jiangcheng can be said to be a paradise for zombies. Many zombies of not very high rank have gained strength after Yin Ye’s series of transformations.
Of course, Yin Ye knew propriety, so except for the group of reformers who followed him before, he did not reform new zombies.
He actually didn’t like to use those zombies for research, after all, if he continued then he would be no different from those before.
But for the group of reformers around him, there was no problem if they were reformed again. Yin Ye only started with everyone’s consent.
For those reformers, they have been transformed into what they are now, there was no way to change back to their original form, so if they can improve their strength after another transformation, they would not refuse.
What Yin Ye devoted to his research was not to transform people, but how to restore them and end their pain. However, he still has not found the solution but succeeded in another direction.
The leading senior zombies were all at rank 5 or above in strength. Some were infinitely close to rank 6. The younger brothers behind them were all above rank 4, some were also rank 5.
The strength of such a team was very powerful, even ordinary superhuman teams would dare not provoke it.
So Gu Panpan was very relieved. She naturally didn’t notice that there was a small tail behind them.
This group tailing behind were already sweating profusely because they discovered that the strength of every zombie was so scary. If they were found out, they would be bitten into bones in minutes.
Now the eyes of this group of people watching Panpan seem to be looking at a demon. If it were not a demon, how could she stay among the zombies without being attacked by the zombies? How could she command these zombies?
The leader of the reconnaissance team said: “This batch of vegetables probably came from Jiangcheng. Jiangcheng is too frightening… this news must be brought back… According to usual, coming to hunt would usually only have a small part of the entire base. If it is really in accordance with the usual practice, then Jiangcheng’s strength was too scary. The people living in Jiangcheng seem to have a way to command the zombies. This is another important piece of news. If their method of commanding zombies is announced, what a contribution it will be to mankind. From now on, they don’t have to be afraid of zombies!”
He spoke with more and more excitement, as if he had already seen a bright future for mankind.
Probably because he was too excited, he didn’t control his aura, then he was spotted by the keen Xiao Yu, who turned his head and looked in their direction with a pair of gloomy eyes.
Gu Panpan also found something wrong: “Who is it? Don’t hide, come out!”
