Chapter 40 Sang Sheng's Counterattack

Three days later, Zhou Mei was ordered to pick up Yingyi and his group. After the two sides met, Lianyi determined from the other party's expression that things were going well.

"I'm here to pick you up on behalf of the Capital Base. Welcome back!"

Zhou Mei was all smiles, and the tone of her voice rose unconsciously.

"Congratulations to General Zhou for becoming the leader of the base. The survivors of the capital are blessed."

Yingyi also said some polite words at the right time.

The meeting between the two parties was harmonious. Yingyi led everyone back to the capital base with Zhou Mei, and the military ration processing plant was successfully taken over by the people she brought.

After returning to the capital base, Zhou Feng did not hesitate and personally delivered one hundred level four crystal cores. He also said frankly that the upgrade of the crystal core defense shield required the full help of the three scientific research leaders, otherwise the upgraded version of the defense shield would have to wait.

This time, Yingyi did not hesitate and introduced the three researchers to Zhou Feng. He sent them to the research institute in the capital base along with the necessary equipment. The only thing left was a matter of time.

Lianyi tossed the fourth-level crystal core in her hand and announced that she would go into seclusion for a few days and take on more missions after her strength improved. The Sun siblings also made some progress this time and were just in time to reach the third level. The entire Black Hawk team basically went into seclusion.

Three days later, Zhou Mei hurriedly came to Captain Yingyi and said straight to the point:

"Although Sang Sheng was driven out of office by my father, he had a backup plan. In order to obtain high-level crystal cores, he actually raised zombies in private. This is what we discovered from the information in his secret room when his house was raided."

After hearing this, a hint of disgust flashed in Yingyi's eyes. No wonder Zhou Feng could send so many crystal cores at once. It seemed that some of them were found from Sang Sheng.

"so what?"

"Sang Sheng has escaped in a vain attempt. The person in prison now is his replacement. He has disappeared. It is very likely that he will seek revenge on you, or create chaos in the capital base. Either way, it is not what we want to see."

Zhou Mei explained the situation succinctly.

"You mean, you didn't find the place where the other party kept the zombies?"

Eagle Wing immediately grasped the key point.

“Yes, based on the intelligence, we went to three places, but all came up empty-handed. However, based on the analysis of the on-site situation, there were indeed traces of zombies being kept in captivity in these three places before, but they were later moved. As for where they were moved to, we haven’t found out yet because the time was too short.

The reason I came here this time is to remind Captain Yingyi to be more cautious recently, and secondly, I want to ask Miss Sun Yi from your team for help. I hope she can help us find some clues. We can't rest easy until this person is dead."

Zhou Mei was sincere and did not hide her intentions.

"I understand. It's just that Tong Ying is currently in seclusion to strive for the third level of supernatural power. If she succeeds in upgrading, she will be able to play a greater role."

"I understand. I just hope she can work with us as soon as she completes her upgrade."

Zhou Mei invited again.

"No problem! In addition, I suggest that General Zhou publicize Sang Sheng's evil deeds, issue a reward, and mobilize the entire base to search for him. This will be faster than you alone searching for him."

Eagle Wing suggested at the right time.

"Well, we have considered this, but we are afraid of causing chaos in the base, so we have not adopted it yet."

Zhou Mei had told her father about this before, but her father did not agree. His father said that there might still be spies from Sang Sheng's side in the army, so there should be no big moves for the time being. If they force the mad dog into a dead end, the other side will definitely fight back desperately.

"Okay, we'll try our best to cooperate, and hopefully we can catch them successfully."

Yingyi knew that General Zhou must have concerns, so he didn't say anything more.

After watching Zhou Mei leave in a hurry, Eagle Wing went to find Eagle Mastiff, Eagle Falcon, as well as the captains of the Black Panther and Chaoyang teams, relayed Zhou Mei's words, and made some arrangements.

Of course, those who were in seclusion were unaware of these things.

But five days later, it was hard for them not to know, because mutant zombies appeared in the capital base. Like the mutants, they possessed special abilities and were killing people wantonly in the base, throwing the base into chaos.

"Taskers, please stop and rest, and cooperate with the personnel of the small world to hunt down the future zombie king!"

The communicator's voice suddenly entered Lianyi's mind. Fortunately, she had successfully broken through to level four and was gathering her strength, otherwise she would easily get a stitch in the side.

"Zombie King? Where is he?"

Lianyi's eyes opened instantly and she stood up while asking.

"It's right inside the capital base!"

"Is the defense of the capital base so poor?"

Ripple frowned.

"There was a problem inside the base."

The sound of "bang bang bang" on the door interrupted the communicator.

Lianyi was already dressed, opened the door and said:

"What happened?"

"Sang Sheng has released the superpowered zombies he raised, and they are killing people in the base. All superpowered people must go out to fight."

Eagle Wing glanced at the ripples and found that the opponent had made another breakthrough.

"General Zhou didn't kill that guy?"

Lianyi said directly that the most troublesome thing was that if you didn't kill the snake, it would bite you back.

"The other party used a substitute to escape."

“What a hassle.”

"The military is evacuating the survivors in the inner city. We are responsible for intercepting those mutant zombies. It would be best if we can kill them."

Yingyi was talking as he walked, and just happened to meet up with Yingao, Sun Wang, Yanying, and Yingshun.

"I heard there's a level five zombie in there. I've arranged for the team members with abilities below level four to evacuate the survivors. There's no need for them to be cannon fodder."

Eagle Mastiff spoke directly to everyone.

"Captain, quickly arrange for someone to notify General Zhou to open the crystal core defense shield immediately and trap the mutant zombies in the inner city to prevent them from escaping and summoning more zombies to besiege the city."

An image flashed through Lianyi's mind, and she immediately shouted to Yingyi.

At this time, they rushed into the inner city against the fleeing survivors, just in time to see a tall and thin zombie with a pale face biting a survivor on the neck. Blood spurted out instantly, but the other party looked like he was enjoying it, making the scene even more chaotic.

"Flying Eagle, go and notify them!"

Yingyi grabbed Sun Wang and shouted, he was the fastest among the few people.

"Yes, Captain!"

Sun Wang gritted his teeth, flashed into the crowd, and disappeared in an instant.

"Is this the one?"

Ripple asked the communicator in her mind.

"yes!"

Because this zombie has a handsome face, pale skin, red eyes, and a mouth full of good teeth. If he doesn't bite people, he looks like a sickly young man. Who would have thought that he is so cruel.

A user with special abilities had already launched an attack. A huge fireball flew towards the opponent's head, but he dodged it by turning his head. Then he jumped and rushed towards the user with a clenched fist.

At the same time, the light shield above slowly closed, and the crystal core defense shield was activated.
