Chapter 584 Super Boss

The car had stopped, and many people got out. One of the girls said, "Wow, Pei Xiu, your speed ability has improved again."

"That's me! The fastest man in the world! My sister is the fastest woman in the world!"

Ling Ran: "..."

There's no need to bring her along.

Su Yimo, however, wholeheartedly agreed: "That's right! The adult is the best at everything!"

The four of them then realized what had happened. Old Lin was the first to get up from the ground, then ran to Pei Xiu, bowed and said, "Hello comrade, thank you so much for saving me and my companion! Thank you so much!"

"We're all human, no need for thanks."

Pei Xiu waved his hand dismissively.

Hearing this, Old Lin couldn't help but tear up. She straightened up and smiled, "No one has an obligation to save anyone. Thank you so much."

The other three also stood up while Lao Lin was speaking, walked to Lao Lin's side and thanked him: "Our benefactor, thank you for saving us just now."

"It's alright, it's alright."

Pei Xiu waved his hand again, then asked, "Are you here on a mission? Why are there only a few of you?"

A superpowered team usually consists of at least seven people.

The division of labor among seven people is the most reasonable.

"Yes, there are only four of us in our team."

Pei Xiu: "..."

It seems like I answered, but it also seems like I didn't.

Gu Zijing stepped forward and introduced herself: "Hello, my name is Gu Zijing. I came from the Beijing base. May I ask your names?"

After the introductions, Ling Ran and the others learned that the only woman among the four was named Lin Qian, the thinnest man was named Yang Longchao, the tallest and strongest man was named Duan Kun, and the other one was 1.78 meters tall with dark skin and named Yan Haibin.

The four were from the Vision Base in the neighboring city, and they came here to do a mission.

Pei Xiu remarked from the side, "The four of you dare to come to the neighboring city for a mission? You're incredibly bold!"

Upon hearing this, the expressions on the faces of the others changed slightly.

Gu Zijing noticed this detail, but didn't ask any further questions: "Is there a base in X City? We've been walking for most of the day, and this is how we finally found you."

“There should be no survivors living in City X anymore,” Lin Qian replied. “City X originally had several small bases, but they were later merged into the Vision Base.”

"I see. That explains why I haven't seen a single person after walking for most of the day, not even many zombies. It seems that X City is a ghost town."

Shen Nian sighed deeply, then asked, "By the way, does Ning Province experience polar day? It's almost six in the afternoon, and there's no sign of it getting dark."

"Yes, not just Ning Province, the entire three northern provinces are experiencing polar day and extreme cold."

As the four of them spoke, their teeth chattered uncontrollably.

Gu Zijing said considerately, "It's too cold outside. Why don't you all get in the car and talk? We have something we'd like to ask you."

Duan Kun thanked them, saying, "Thank you for your help."

There wasn't enough space in the car, so Shen Nianshen took out a Jeep from his spatial storage. The four of them were all shocked when they saw it.

Spatial ability user!

This guy is definitely a big shot!

Shen Nianshen gave them a car and followed behind them. Guided by Gu Zijing, the group arrived at a rural village called Liuzhuangzi.

I randomly picked a house with a nice-looking exterior and went inside. A zombie rushed out of it.

The zombie was wearing floral pants and a floral shirt, and its long, black and white curly hair was now disheveled, covering most of its face.

The old zombie woman charged directly at Pei Yi, who was at the forefront, but was quickly dealt with by him.

This move surprised Lin Qian and the others, but then they felt it was only natural.

As expected of an ability user from the Beijing base, he's definitely a big shot.

Once inside, the four expected to be questioned, but Pei Yi told them to wait a moment and then began cleaning the entire house.

In no time, the room was cleaned, all the furniture was brand new, and decorative paintings and fresh bouquets were even hung on the walls.

Super big shot!

The four immediately realized that this group of people was not just a bunch of big shots. At the same time, they also noticed that while everyone else was working, only the prettiest and lightest-dressed girl didn't have to work.

Actually, they had noticed Ling Ran from the very beginning.

After all, a skinny penguin standing out among a group of fat polar bears is simply too conspicuous.

They felt sorry for her just looking at her.

Finally, the aromatherapy lamps in the main room were lit, and a faint floral fragrance slowly filled the room before everyone sat down.

Lin Qian and her companions felt a bit overwhelmed by the sheer number of people on the other side, especially the presence of a dog and a pig.

"Gentlemen, feel free to ask us anything, and we will answer to the best of our ability."

No rush.

Su Yimo brought the brewed hot tea to them: "Have some hot tea."

The four people's bodies were not as stiff as before, but they were still freezing cold and couldn't stop shivering. This was not something they could control; it was an instinctive reaction of their bodies.

"Thank you, thank you."

The four people expressed their gratitude with great emotion.

After a few sips of hot tea, the four of them finally felt much warmer and as if they had come back to life.

Gu Zijing put down her teacup and asked, "How many people are there at your Vision Base?"

"Approximately 200,000 people."

"Two hundred thousand? That's quite a lot..." Pei Xiu was about to say that when he immediately remembered what that person had said before, and quickly changed his words: "Your base has quite a lot of people. The base we went to in the northern province only had 150,000 people."

"Maybe it's because we have more food reserves here, so there are more survivors?" Lin Qian asked uncertainly, since she didn't know the situation outside either.

Since the apocalypse, she has stayed in Ning Province, and the farthest place she has been is only a few surrounding cities.

How far is this place from the Vision Base?

"It's not far, only a little over a hundred kilometers."

“That’s not far.” Pei Yi nodded slightly, then asked curiously, “What does the ‘Yuanjing’ in your Yuanjing base come from? I don’t think there’s a city called Yuanjing in Ning Province.”

Duan Kun replied, "It's our base commander's name, Su Yuanjing."

"Having visited so many bases, this is the first time I've seen someone use their own name as the name of a base."

While you can't glean anything from a base's name, this naming method clearly suggests that the base is being treated as personal property.

Duan Kun and the others did not answer.

Gu Zijing continued, "Are you familiar with Ning Province? We plan to travel around Ning Province, preferably to tourist attractions."

"Huh? Tourist attractions?"

Duan Kun was somewhat surprised: "There are a lot of zombies in these places."

Do you think we're afraid given our strength?

"..."

The four of them remained silent.

They admit that these people are very strong, but no matter how strong they are, it is still just individual strength. There are hundreds of millions of zombies. Can they withstand that?

Even a fully-fledged superhuman can't do that.
