Chapter 713 Current Status of the Coastal Area

A week later, I arrived at the foot of the mountain and waited for Yu Jin to arrive. We had arranged to meet today to see what he had accomplished in the past week, so I had been waiting here since 7 a.m., and it had been more than an hour since then.

If I had known he would be so late, I wouldn't have waited here so early. I was exposed to the cold wind for a full hour, and I almost froze to death. If I hadn't been wearing so many clothes, I would have died long ago.

Just as I was about to go back, Yu Jin appeared in my sight. He was still the same as before, with a stern face and gloomy eyes. He exuded negative energy. I don't know if it was because he had been with zombies for too long, but he gave me the feeling that he was about to die.

"You're here," I said as I stepped forward.

Yu Jin nodded and said, "I've arranged all the zombies I've collected this week in a house. Would you like to go take a look?"

I said, "Okay, let's go see how many zombies you've gathered."

Afterwards, we got in the car and drove in the direction Yu Jin pointed. After about ten minutes, we arrived at an empty house. As soon as we got to the house, I heard roars coming from inside. These roars were obviously from zombies.

Without even looking, I could sense that there were many zombies in there.

After getting off the bus, Yu Jin said, "Come with me."

I followed him and we arrived at the opposite building, on the third floor. He pointed to the building opposite and said, "Now you can see it. Take a look."

I turned my head and immediately saw the building across the street teeming with zombies. From the first floor all the way up to the third floor, there were zombies everywhere, including in the stairwell. I roughly counted them, and there must have been at least a hundred of them.

I wasn't too surprised, because Lu Yun had done it before. What impressed me, however, was that Yu Jin was able to gather so many zombies together and prevent them from leaving. That was quite impressive.

Yu Jin said, "We've only filled the third floor so far. Give me another week, and it should be enough time to fill the building across the street."

I smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

Yu Jin said, "It's not hard work. All I did was look for zombies everywhere. Besides, there are zombies everywhere in this place now, so it's a very simple thing for me."

I said, "Anyway, these zombies will definitely come in very handy in the future. It would be even better if you could find more."

Yu Jin said, "Finding zombies is simple, just give me time."

"Yes, you can go looking for zombies, but you must be careful, okay? Don't let anyone find you. Others may not have the same good temper as us."

Yu Jin said, "I understand that point, but I've been wandering around here for a week, and apart from you guys, I haven't really run into anyone else."

I smiled and said, "There are very few people in the Linshan area. After all, people don't think there are many resources here, so they basically don't stay here. Oh, by the way, there's something I wanted to remind you of."

"you say."

I said, "If, if you encounter a woman, a young woman, while you're collecting zombies, could you please ask her if she is Wu Shuang? This is very important to me."

Yu Jin said, "No problem, leave it to me."

Thank you.

Yu Jin didn't stand on ceremony with me. Seeing so many zombies in the building, I didn't know what to say. Anyway, Yu Jin is pretty capable, at least quite responsible.

I drove back to Linshan alone, and when I got back, I found that Yu Sheng had returned from the Binhai District.

When Pu Weichao saw me, he quickly called me over, then pulled me and Yu Sheng into a room, closed the door, and began to secretly discuss things.

Pu Weichao cut to the chase and asked, "What's the situation in the Binhai District? Why did you get back so quickly?"

Yu Sheng said, "Well, the situation in Binhai District is a bit complicated right now."

Pu Weichao asked, "How is it complicated?"

Yu Sheng said, "Some people in the Binhai District have already started to want unification, just like us, except that their methods of unification are a bit radical."

We didn't interrupt, and he continued:

"When we first arrived, we encountered a group of people. We pretended not to know anything and made contact with them, and then we got some information about the coastal area. The coastal area is now roughly divided into three parts. The first part is a community similar to ours, which wants to unify the entire coastal area. There are many people in them, reportedly more than two hundred. Although they don't have many weapons, each of them is very capable in combat."

“So basically, this community is the most powerful in the Binhai District,” Yu Sheng said. “Then there’s the second part, which is actually a military force. We had contact with them before, and they only accepted us because we were colleagues. They don’t have many people, only about thirty, and they claim that they won’t interfere in the affairs of the Binhai District and will only remain neutral. Mainly because their strength is too great, the people in the community don’t dare to mess with them, so they have continued to exist.”

"What about the three parts?" I asked curiously.

Yu Sheng looked at me and continued, "The third part is actually a large team formed by those scattered survivor groups. Their goal is to fight against the community's unification. Their numbers seem to be about the same as that community, but their strength is too weak, and their hearts are not united."

Pu Weichao said, "It seems that Binhai District is indeed not easy to deal with. We only have about sixty people here, and even if we include Gu Yuanshan's group, we only have a little over a hundred people in total. It is obviously unrealistic to fight against the behemoth in Binhai District."

Yu Sheng said, "That's the situation. We also checked out the community and the third-party team, and that's basically it. It's impossible to wipe them out directly."

Pu Weichao pondered and said, "Hmm, trying to directly confront this kind of team is tantamount to suicide. It seems we have to find another way."

I looked at Pu Weichao, wondering what his plan was, but I figured he'd probably target the third-party team.

I asked, "Yu Sheng, are your men still with the army in Binhai?"

"Yes, they're still there. The main thing is that the military is neutral now, which is a good thing for us."

Pu Weichao then said, "Yu Sheng, do you have any way to persuade the army to unify Binhai?"
