For seventeen years in the apocalypse, the fields yielded no crops. Lin Man and her mother struggled daily on the brink of starvation and thirst, until one day, she obtained a space.
The sun rose as expected, and the Chinese prepared to leave as planned. Before leaving, Lin Cheng and others told the top leaders of S City that the communication had been inexplicably interrupted, and they hoped to call home again before departure to report their actions.
The response was that the signal tower was malfunctioning and was being repaired.
As expected, Lin Cheng and the others didn't dwell on it, instead expressing their understanding. Behind them, the gates of Si City were wide open, and men, women, and children, braved the cold wind and snow to see them off, all with smiles on their faces. From now on, their land, like China, would be free of zombies. They no longer had to hide and live in constant fear.
However, the few people who knew the situation found it difficult to force a smile like them. They only felt a chill on the back of their feet, because they knew that the city would soon be engulfed in a tide of corpses again, and perhaps everyone would die. But they could not feel any sympathy, and were even full of vigilance and hostility.
Because these foreigners gave up their comfortable lives back home, traveled thousands of miles to come here, spent the better part of six months here, constantly on the brink of life and death, fighting tooth and nail, even sacrificing many of their own comrades. But what did they gain in return? Nothing changed, and even more lives were lost. And the people who brought them to this point are hidden among them.
If they hadn't retained some rationality, if they hadn't been prepared to die at any time and had developed a strong heart, Xiong An and the others would have really wanted to drag everyone else and these people to their deaths, dying together!
More than 900 people boarded the plane one after another. Lin Cheng was instructing Zhang Changming that Zhang Changming would form a team with three other people and take the fastest plane back to China. Naturally, he learned the truth. On the one hand, he was glad that he did not drink, and on the other hand, he felt sad and angry for the infected people. When he first found out, he was completely stunned and couldn't believe it.
He knew that he had an important task, and nodded heavily after Lin Cheng finished giving his instructions.
Finally, he shook hands and said goodbye to the city lord and his entourage. Lin Cheng observed the expressions of these people calmly and boarded the plane as if nothing had happened. One plane after another took off and left. The city of S below became more and more distant and smaller. After it was completely out of sight, a small plane left the team.
Lin Cheng jumped out of the plane without using a parachute. He used his supernatural powers to conjure one and landed safely. The plane then turned and flew towards China.
Lin Cheng turned around and returned to Sicheng.
He, Fan Xuan and the other two had analyzed the situation before, and in the end everyone agreed that the zombie virus appeared in those low-quality beers. They believed that there was very likely a zombie king in the city of S, and it was it that put the zombie virus in the beer. Who knows what it is, maybe its dandruff, or maybe its saliva. In short, it can infect people with the zombie virus, but they will not turn into zombies immediately. There is even an incubation period of several days, so that they can bring the virus back to the country.
Of course, there is another possibility. The zombie virus is likely to be secretly collected by normal humans and then put in the wine, but this is not very reasonable. First of all, how can humans grasp the length of the incubation period? Secondly, once the zombies are transformed, humans cannot control them. Apart from killing everyone, what benefits can they get?
So they still tend to believe that there is a zombie king.
It is unknown how long this zombie king has been lurking in the city of S. It, or rather, it has been hiding quite successfully and no one has discovered it. It is waiting for people to eliminate the other zombie king on this continent and the zombie army led by him. After dealing with its competitors, it will abandon the king and extend its claws to humans.
He was not satisfied with the few people in S City, so he secretly infected the Chinese people on the eve of their departure, hoping to let the seeds of zombies ignite the land of China again. His intentions were extremely sinister and vicious.
This speculation is very reasonable. If this speculation is true, what Lin Cheng has to do next is to find the zombie king and determine whether he has any helpers, and then kill him. If he can't deal with him, he has to lock the target and report back.
The Chinese are not so easy to bully.
That’s at least six or seven hundred lives!
Lin Cheng already had someone he suspected.
Lin Cheng rushed back at full speed, while the city of S was still immersed in the joy of rebirth. Those who were also infected with the virus and were in the incubation period were unaware of it. They ate, laughed, worked, and interacted with friends and neighbors as usual. Every infected person was like a target with a bright signal light. They were scattered throughout the city, like stars in the night sky. At this moment, this "night sky" appeared clearly in the mind of an old man.
He has gray hair, not very obvious age spots on his face, pale skin, and rarely moves when sitting in a chair. He looks a little listless. Anyone would think that the old man is not in good health or is in the end of his life, which is why he is in such a state. Even his hands and feet, which are difficult to warm up with many stoves, are considered to be unhealthy.
At this time, the old man was sitting in a bedroom in a small, somewhat dilapidated castle where only the city lord could live. The doors and windows were closed, and the fireplace was burning, isolating him from the cold outside, but his body temperature was still low.
There was a "starry sky" in his mind, but he didn't care about that starry sky. Instead, he paid attention to the group of "stars" that left, those infected people from China.
As they got farther and farther away, his perception of those people became weaker and weaker, just like the stars that had left the range of the night sky that he could grasp. However, he held a map in his hand, and based on the direction those people were heading and comparing it with the map, he was able to confirm before his perception completely disappeared that those people were not returning to China.
Was he found out after all?
The old man tapped the map with his skinny fingers, and the paper made a snapping sound.
There was no expression on his old face, and no emotion in his sunken eye sockets. However, he sincerely confessed to his God in his heart that he was too careless and did not expect those Chinese people to be so shrewd. He had to give up that Eastern country for the time being.
But it doesn’t matter, that day will come.
The most important thing now is to prevent those Orientals from disturbing him.
Somewhere, a plane was carrying Zhang Changming and four others. They were also rushing to their homeland at full speed. Unexpectedly, a group of black zombie birds suddenly appeared from nowhere and pounced towards them like a thick dark cloud.
They shot with their guns and attacked with their superpowers, but in the end there were too many zombie birds. They pecked with their beaks, scratched with their claws, flapped their wings, and rammed their bodies, using every possible means to destroy the plane. Finally, the plane fell powerlessly, crashed into the top of the mountain, and exploded into a ball of fire.
Lin Cheng, who had already seen the city gate, suddenly paused, his face turning grim. He unzipped his waist bag, revealing an alarm that had shattered into pieces. This was the counterpart to the secondary alarm in Zhang Changming's hand. A distant, distant location immediately popped up in his mind. He knew that Zhang Changming was in grave danger there.
Did something go wrong? An accident? Or...
Time passed little by little. In the afternoon, Huaguo had lost contact with the city of S for more than ten hours, and their soldiers did not return triumphantly within the scheduled time. The senior leaders of the four major bases were getting restless.
