Chapter 309 Flameheart Base?

Lu Nange and her group turned into a quiet alley and stopped...

He Zhuo: "Pah! I've never seen anything like it! The Mu family, that whole bunch of animals, already has a base? And they're ranked fourth? That's too weird!"

Shi Xu: "That whole family, they're like a stewed turtle, full of wicked schemes..."

Gu Wan: "Wang Xigang even said Mu Jin is loyal? Mu Jin is loyal??? That's absolutely outrageous."

Gu Qi: "Those Mu family members, with their underdeveloped cerebellums and completely undeveloped brains? What kind of loyalty can they possibly have?"

Ji Xian: "That family doesn't do anything that involves people!"

Watching He Zhuo and the others hurl insults at each other without stopping, Lu Nange raised an eyebrow and asked, "Do you know anyone from the Mu family?"

He Zhuo and the others nodded in unison, their faces growing increasingly grim, as if they had swallowed flies.

Lu Nange: "Tell me more about it?"

Gu Wan's tone was full of disgust: "Nan Nan, you have no idea, those men in the Mu family are all more despicable and vile than the last. Before the apocalypse, they abused their family background and did whatever they wanted, like flies to blood when they saw pretty girls... Countless young girls have been ruined by them, their family is crooked from the very beginning."

Luo Xingyou frowned and asked, "Before the apocalypse, didn't the police do anything?"

Gu Qi: "It's not that we don't care, it's that we can't. The Mu family never leaves any evidence behind their actions, and victims often can't even produce any proof..."

Ji Xian: "Yeah, before the apocalypse, anyone who wanted to file a complaint was basically dead!"

Wen Qing asked incredulously, "They wouldn't kill people, would they?"

He Zhuo: "Absolutely! Bullying the weak and fearing the strong... that perfectly describes the Mu family. They specifically target those without connections, then settle things with money and power afterwards."

Gu Wan: "Wait a minute, brother... I remember when we left Beijing, didn't our family say that the Mu family was the mastermind behind the biggest human trafficking case?..."

Gu Qi: "I guess the apocalypse came, and they didn't have time."

Gu Wan: "I thought they'd been executed long ago, but they're still breathing! Truly, evil lives on..."

He Zhuo rubbed his hands together, eager for a fight: "Sister Bao, Brother Yan, how about we go and cause some trouble? Murder is legal these days, it's perfect for doing justice!"

Chi Yanzhou: "No rush, let's go to Anfu Road to find the base first."

He Zhuo immediately wilted: "Okay..."

Gu Qi: "Don't rush. Although the Mu family's 'being moved by the scenery' only has two words, they are still the fourth-ranked base. Let's go back to our own base, establish a foothold, and gather our forces before we try to act on behalf of Heaven."

He Zhuo slapped his forehead: "Right! There are priorities; it's more important to find our own family first."

Lu Nange cautiously looked around: "There are more and more survivors active nearby."

Luo Xingyou: "The weather's nice, everyone's out foraging for food."

Chi Yanzhou: "Let's go!"

A group of people walked out of the alley...

Judging from Lu Nange and her group's neat and clean equipment and steady steps, anyone with eyes could tell that they were not to be trifled with.

Not to mention the dangerous aura they exuded that warned others to stay away...

The survivors along the way wisely lowered their heads or looked away, afraid of accidentally getting into trouble.

Naturally, no one would dare to step forward and make a fool of themselves.

When the iron sign for "Sharp Edge Base" came into view, He Zhuo spat out something extremely rudely, his face filled with undisguised disgust.

As the group reached the corner at the end of the street, several modified jeeps drove out of the 'Blade Base' gate.

A girl with a high ponytail inside the car suddenly rolled down her window, her eyes lighting up. "That parrot is so beautiful! Bro, I want it!"

The young man in the passenger seat said to the driver, "Mu Nian, chase after them!"

Mu Nian picked up the walkie-talkie: "All vehicles turn right and catch up with the group with the parrot on its shoulder!"

Five SUVs turned right at the same time, their engines roaring as they chased after Lu Nange and the others.

But within a minute of reaching the intersection, the figure that was just in sight vanished completely as if evaporated.

The off-road vehicle convoy searched the nearby streets several times, but only passed by three ordinary off-road vehicles, without finding a single similar vehicle.

Mu Nian's palms were sweating as he gripped the steering wheel: "Young Master, the person...the person is missing..."

The girl who wanted the parrot kept pounding on the seat, shouting, "Keep looking! I don't believe you can conjure someone up in broad daylight! Bro, I want that parrot!"

The young man in the passenger seat glanced at the driver: "Didn't you hear what the young lady said?"

Mu Nian hurriedly gripped the walkie-talkie: "All vehicles, spread out and search! It's such a short road, how could ten or so people just vanish into thin air?"

......

When a vehicle drove out of the "Sharp Blade Base," Lu Nange, at the end of the street, said, "Why are you taking this route? We own cars too!"

She deftly led everyone into a side alley.

He Zhuo was still muttering, "Sister, our RV is so cool, what if other people are envious..."

Before he could finish speaking, his mouth was covered—three SUVs suddenly appeared in the alley.

He Zhuo slapped his forehead: "That's right! We have other cars!"

Gu Qi: "Still filming? Do you think you're not stupid enough already?"

Lu Xici patted the Mercedes-Benz G-Class next to him: "You're still so handsome now!"

Lu Nange glanced at the alley entrance: "Those cars are coming. Get in, let's go!"

The three cars started their engines at the same time, and as they sped out of the alley, they passed by the Mu family's convoy.

Someone in the opposing convoy instinctively turned their head, only to see the taillights of three ordinary SUVs disappear around the street corner.

Chi Yi drove the lead car slowly forward, the wheels rolling over the garbage scattered on the ground.

The streets after the ice melted were a scene of devastation—abandoned vehicles were piled up on the roadside, leaving only rusty shells.

A dilapidated signboard hangs askew on the exterior wall of the building.

The zombies wandering the road heard the sound of the vehicle and immediately staggered closer.

But before they could even get close to the vehicle, they were blown to the head by Lu Nange, Chi Yanzhou, or Shi Xu's supernatural abilities.

On the side window of the second car, vines climbed all over the window, constantly reaching out towards the road, piercing the heads of the fallen zombies, and quickly retracting with the crystal cores wrapped around them.

Lu Beiye leaned against the car window, watching Zhizhi's busy vines: "Sister, Zhizhi is such a thrifty and capable helper!"

The vines swayed happily, chirping softly.

[Master's younger brother, if you can praise me, praise me more!]

It took nearly half an hour for the vehicle to finally stop on Anfu Road.

Several zombies were staggering among the ruins, their rotting feet making unsettling splattering sounds as they stepped into the puddles.

After navigating through many twists and turns to find a secluded parking spot, Lu Nange stored the three cars into her spatial storage.

The group walked towards the Flameheart Base.

The base was surrounded by a wall about five meters high, with a top covered with a circular electric fence that gleamed coldly in the sunlight.

He Zhuo whistled, "Brother Yan, as expected of our Grandpa Chi! This facility is absolutely top-notch!"

Shi Xu's mental energy quickly pinpointed the entrance's location: "Three hundred meters to the east, let's go!"
