Chapter 214: Getting Close to That Doomsday Boss (21)

"I've invited everyone here today, and I, Wang, won't beat around the bush," Wang Cheng drank a glass of wine, set it aside, and smacked his lips. "Brothers, you should have noticed that the zombies have become increasingly difficult to deal with, and our supplies are also dwindling."

"Yeah, Brother Cheng, what's going on? Our team has suffered heavy losses and we can't handle it at all."

"yes!"

The captains below responded one after another, but Han Linxia still had a stern face, but his expression was a little gloomy.

Wang Cheng had been paying attention to his movements, so he naturally noticed the changes in his expression. He snorted in his heart. No matter how noble and arrogant Han Linxia was, he still had to make a living under him.

"This is what I want to talk about today. Since you have chosen to join me, we are naturally good brothers and a family. So for our future lives, I specially used supplies to buy intelligence from Boss Jinpeng in Cuiling Bay."

Wang Cheng paused, deliberately piquing the interest of the people below. Seeing that they were all looking at him, he frowned and spoke anxiously, "The situation is very bad. According to Boss Jin Peng's information, these zombies can already evolve and they also have supernatural powers."

"What?!"

"Oh My God!"

"how so!"

There was chaos downstairs. Han Linxia turned sideways to glance at Li Ziyan. The two looked at each other, raised their brows, and made the same worried expressions.

"But don't worry, everyone. I'm the head of such a large base after all. I won't let you sit there and wait for death. And I also believe that you will find a way to keep our base going, right?"

“It’s natural!”

"Boss is right!"

No matter where you are, there is no shortage of people who flatter their "boss". What's more, now you have no choice but to do what you want. Being aloof can't make you a living. Instead of confronting each other for the sake of your own face and principles, it is better to be a hero who knows the times.

Wang Cheng nodded and raised his chin to the military advisor beside him, indicating that he should pass the document along.

"We haven't found any other clues yet, but I don't plan to just sit there doing nothing. Let's make a rule that every time we encounter a zombie with superpowers like this, we have to bring back their bodies."

"Bring them back? Why?" Han Linxia spoke. He already had a vague guess in his mind and knew what Wang Cheng was planning, but he wanted to hide the information he had so that Wang Cheng would relax his vigilance against them. "Zombie corpses are just a pile of rotten meat. Bringing them back would waste space and affect the mood."

As expected, Wang Cheng's face relaxed a bit after hearing his question. He took a sip of wine and looked at Han Linxia with pretended dissatisfaction, "Captain Han, we can't talk about whether we are in a good mood or not right now. Of course, we must keep them alive first. Bring their bodies back so that I can study them carefully."

Everyone hesitated. The zombie corpses carried a stench of decay and blood, which could easily attract a swarm of zombies. Walking with zombies in an empty city was like carrying a time bomb, increasing the probability of danger.

"Of course, everyone should do what they are capable of. I won't force you, but you all know that the longer it takes, the greater the danger we will be in." Wang Cheng chuckled, and the captains below nodded in agreement.

"Brother Cheng is right, we will naturally serve the base!"

Han Linxia placed his fingers on his knees and tapped, lowered his head, a hint of sarcasm flashing in his eyes.

As he expected, Wang Cheng did know about the zombie upgrades, but he was even more ruthless than he'd imagined. He only mentioned the zombies' abilities and upgrades, but not the crystal cores. He probably wanted to use this team to kill the zombies, then reap the benefits and use the crystal cores to upgrade.

Li Ziyan also thought of this. He frowned and said nothing.

"Captain Han, why aren't you talking?" Wang Cheng sat up straight and looked at Han Linxia. "Come to think of it, the little brother Captain Han brought with him today doesn't look familiar. Who is he?"

"Han has a cold personality and is not good at speaking." Han Linxia didn't react when she heard her name, but when Wang Cheng mentioned Li Ziyan, she tightened her grip. "This is a member of our team. They came with me today."

"Really? But this little brother doesn't look like a soldier." Wang Cheng has been dealing with both the white and black worlds for so many years, so he naturally knows some of the characteristics of special forces.

Just by looking at Li Ziyan's height and his skin color and appearance, you can tell that this little boy has never suffered any hardship before, and his hands probably don't have much blood on them.

"The one we rescued on the road was still a child. He learned some skills from us so that he could protect himself."

Wang Cheng nodded, but didn't say whether he believed it or not. His eyes were still on Li Ziyan, looking him up and down.

"I've finished talking to you all about business. As long as I, the king, have a bite to eat, no one will go hungry. There's no need to be nervous. Just relax tonight, hahahaha!"

Below, the wine flowed and Wang Cheng waved his hand, and a group of beautiful women, both men and women, entered. However, the environment was dangerous, so they couldn't spend time on dressing up, but they all looked pretty and beautiful.

Han Linxia didn't even look at them. After staying with Li Ziyan for a while, she made an excuse to leave.

"Boss, little brother Li," Chen Kuangyuan came forward when he saw the two of them, drove over, opened the door, and said, "Get in."

The three of them held a meeting along the way to the base, and Bai Jingzhe and the others had not slept yet.

"Brother Han, what did Wang Cheng say? Did he embarrass you?"

"No, he did know about the superpowers," Han Linxia frowned, but there was no worry in her tone, "but he didn't plan to tell us about it."

Li Ziyan continued what Han Linxia said and finished expressing their speculations. Chen Kuangyuan and Bai Jingzhe's expressions became even more gloomy.

"He is such a greedy guy, he wants us to work for him so that he can reap the benefits? Dream on!" Chen Kuangyuan wanted to slam the table, but was afraid the sound would be too loud, so he could only slap Bai Jingzhe on the back, causing him to almost let out a sharp scream.

"Don't be afraid. Since he's like this, we don't need to show any mercy. All this training should finally come in handy." Han Linxia smiled, took out a cigarette, put it in his mouth, lit it, took a puff and blew out a smoke ring, "We've kept him here for so long, letting him act arrogantly. It's time for him to learn to behave himself."

Li Ziyan looked at Han Linxia's profile, looked at the scar on his face, felt the harshness in the other's tone, but his heart still trembled uncontrollably.

"Brother, what are you going to do?"
