Chapter 100 Order.

After saying this, Ji Lan felt as relieved as if an invisible burden had been lifted off his shoulders.

She knew she was being impulsive, but she had had enough.

Both her parents and teachers taught her that as long as she was good enough, she could break other people's prejudices and make gossip disappear.

Even Jing Hongyu said, Senior, as time goes by, they will naturally discover your excellence, and then no one will object to you taking this position.

But no, no matter how much she did, there were still people who were dissatisfied with her.

Having been burdened by the word "excellent" for too long, from now on, Ji Lan admits that she is just an ordinary woman who is cowardly, soft-hearted and selfish, no matter what others say.

Until the next morning, Ji Lan's ears were filled with various voices, some urging her to change her mind, some scolding her for being a deserter, and some apologizing for their previous unpleasant words to her.

But she didn't listen. She concentrated on counting the number of people who were going to leave with her, calculating the losses on the road, and thinking about how to ensure that everyone who followed her could arrive safely.

District 15 is about 600 kilometers away from District 9. You have to go around the city and find a secluded place to set up camp at night. You also need to bring guns, ammunition, a generator, kitchen utensils, and food...

After daybreak, the wandering zombies hid in the city because of the sunlight. Ji Lan dragged her tired body to find Aunt Zhang who was waiting at the door.

Aunt Zhang said worriedly, "Deputy Commander, is it my fault that caused you to resign?"

Ji Lan said, "I don't want to do this anymore. It has nothing to do with you. Aunt Zhang, what's your daughter's name?"

"Zhou Xuening."

"Wait here for a moment."

Ji Lan went to the communications room and turned up the volume of the radio to the maximum, ensuring that people outside the base could hear it. "Zhou Xuening, your mother Zhang Yun is waiting for you at the base gate. If you can hear me, please show yourself so that I can confirm that you can reach her."

The zombie girl had really been guarding not far from the base. When she shouted for the third time, a thin figure appeared in people's sight.

In the open space in front of the power grid, there were still corpses that had wandered over last night and were knocked down by weapons and superpowers, and they had not been cleaned up in time. The zombie girl was standing about two hundred meters away, looking at the people in the base.

She didn't dare to get close, and the people inside were also afraid of her getting close.

Ji Lan used the intercom to ask someone to open the door. The metal door opened an exit that was only wide enough for one person. Aunt Zhang squeezed out and ran towards the figure eagerly.

Many people came out and watched the man and the zombie approaching each other. Among them was a man who quietly stood behind the gun rack on the observation tower, aimed at the head of the female zombie in the distance, and pulled the trigger.

"Bang!"

The sudden gunshot startled everyone who was watching.

Ji Lan was also frightened and looked at the female zombie nervously. When he found that she did not fall down, he felt relieved and happy.

This high-level zombie had an amazing jumping ability like a flea, and each jump could cover a distance of more than ten meters. When the gunshot was heard, she jumped in front of Aunt Zhang, carried her mother on her back, and quickly disappeared into the urban buildings.

The man who fired the gun on his own initiative looked regretful that his sneak attack was not successful.

"Just a little bit."

Ji Lan rushed to the watchtower, pulled the man away and cursed, "Who told you to shoot?"

The man was very confident: "What's wrong with shooting a zombie? Killing her is equivalent to making a contribution. Besides, you are not the deputy commander, why do you have the right to order me around?"

"That's right, you've resigned!"

Ji Lan gritted his teeth, closed his eyes tightly, and suppressed the urge to kill.

They couldn't kill each other, but she couldn't stay in this place full of idiots for a moment.

However, just as Ji Lan was taking the goods from the warehouse and loading them onto the truck, the group of people who had a grudge against her came out to cause trouble for her again.

"You can go, but leave your stuff behind. This is our supplies from District 15. We don't want them for deserters."

Ji Lan told him coldly, word by word, "I will only take the portion from those who choose to leave."

"No, you don't have the authority to requisition any supplies right now. We've elected a new deputy commander, and he has the final say on the base now."

Ji Lan, unable to bear it any longer, found that she couldn't even take a deep breath. The anger was stuck in her body and she had no place to go except to vent it.

"You won't give it to me, right?" Ji Lan turned around with a cold expression and shouted an order to the bewildered followers behind her: "Go ahead, grab it!"

Screw our own people, there are no such things as our own people in the end times!

After the melee, Ji Lan's side relied on the large number of psychics to win the final victory, and beat the deputy commander who was nominated later to the ground begging for mercy.

They despised her soft-heartedness, but in the end begged her to be kind enough to give them a chance to live. They were both pitiful and hateful.

Even if they decided to part ways with District 15, there were still more than 18,000 people who chose to stay at the base. Ji Lan still took only what she wanted, just as she said.

After completing all the preparations, Ji Lan, along with more than one hundred psychics who responded to her call and nearly ten thousand ordinary people, set out on the escape journey to District Nine.

This road was not easy to travel; it was long and dangerous. As soon as they left Area 15, they attracted a large number of zombies. After they had finally cleared the road and advanced a certain distance, new zombies would approach, forcing them to stop and continue fighting.

The logistics workers who had stayed at the base for many years had never seen such a bloody scene. They buried their heads like ostriches, praying that the battle would end quickly and that nothing would happen to anyone.

What’s even more terrifying is that the psychics discovered more than one high-level zombie.

Those figures that appeared quietly did not roar or rush forward recklessly. Instead, they stood in the shadow of the building, like cold and ruthless gods of death, watching the humans who left the solid fortress and ventured into the zombie territory.

After discovering them, Ji Lan felt extremely panicked.

If they can't defeat these high-level zombies that suddenly appear, won't all these ten thousand people die because of her wrong decision?

The weight of such sin made it difficult for her to breathe, and her voice became dry. She stared at the group of people, clinging to the last glimmer of hope. Her throat was as dry as the desert, and she spoke with great difficulty: "Can we... talk?"

Qin Xiaoshuang said: Maybe after the zombies regain their sanity, they don’t want to bite people anymore, but are trying to establish a new order.

While everyone else scoffed, Ji Lan listened and took it seriously. She wanted to try to communicate with these high-level zombies so that they would not hurt each other.

"Sister Ji Lan." A young girl's voice rang out: "We can talk, but don't point the gun at us. My friends will be scared."

It was Zhou Xue Ning. She was also standing in the shadows, but because of her short stature, she was not discovered at first.

Ji Lan's eyes lit up, like the last spark of hope buried in the ashes was ignited in an instant.

Out of caution, she did not agree immediately, fearing that this was a false sign of weakness from the zombies, and once they put down their guns, they would rush into the crowd and feast on them.

"I'm sorry, I can't trust you completely, but I won't actively let them shoot either."

Zhou Xuening walked out of the shadows and waved to the alley behind her. Aunt Zhang came out from behind her. She had tidied herself up and looked much better than before. With tears in her eyes, she looked at her daughter with heartache.

"I heard from my mom that you're taking people to District 9. Can you let her return to your team and go with you?"

Ji Lan confirmed that Aunt Zhang had no signs of infection and nodded without hesitation: "Okay, but won't you be separated from her again?"

"I have to separate from her. I'm afraid I'll only be fine for a short while, and one day I'll suddenly go crazy and bite people again." Zhou Xue Ning said dejectedly, "Although my mother said it's okay to become a zombie, after becoming a zombie, the only feeling left is hunger. Eating people won't make me feel full, and the thought of having eaten people makes me feel disgusted and regretful. I feel so terrible."

Ji Lan looked at the young girl who was already in a dead state, and sadness gradually filled his heart.

How is it possible that all zombies immediately and calmly accept the fact that they have become monsters and regard humans as enemies?

They just lost their minds due to the virus, they didn't suddenly become bad.
