Chapter 88 The Battle for Diesel Fuel (3)

"Awoo... Awoo... Hiss~"

The undercurrents below were causing unease and anxiety among those on top.

"Hua Yi, this is the danger you were talking about, isn't it? Where did you get so many zombies from?!"

Gu An peered down and saw the maggots writhing in various colors—black, white, and green—looking even more terrifying against the backdrop of the gauze netting.

The others were pulled to the back and stopped about 50 meters from the edge of the pit, while only Gu An and Hua Yi stood at the edge of the pit watching.

Gu An felt the power within his body surge even more violently, making him feel pale.

Hua Yi, being the closest and incredibly observant, naturally noticed something was amiss. She thought to herself, "Why haven't the zombies made any moves while I've been here? At most, they've killed each other a few times, but it's nothing serious. Why is he so agitated as soon as he arrives? And his expression doesn't seem innocent either. What's going on?"

But he only thought about it in his heart. He had done a favor for his boss, so even if there were any problems, it would depend on his boss's decision. He had no say in this matter, but he could talk about what he had discovered.

After thinking for a moment, Hua Yi replied, "It was there when I arrived. I just provided them with a good resting environment. For the sake of the human people, I even specially found a hard and indestructible diamond mesh to trap them. Nothing has happened until now, so why is it like this today?"

Hua Yi was testing him, and Gu An knew it all too well. He had been looking down, but suddenly raised his head and met Hua Yi's gaze with a slight smile. "Guess if they're waiting for someone, someone who truly attracts them."

Hua Yi was puzzled. She turned her head to look behind her, leaned closer to Gu An, and whispered, "You mean, Zhang Yang?"

Gu An knew that Zhang Yang's blood was special, so what he said made sense. However, although Gu An's expression softened slightly, there were still a few pale spots.

"Maybe, we'll see!" Gu An smiled and walked to the back, because he saw that the zombies were about to rush out. He remembered that Zhang Yang was a poison-type ability user. If there was a poison, the zombies would probably be quiet for a while.

“Ah Ruan, I have an idea. I remember Zhang Yang is a poison-type ability user. You could have him sprinkle some powder down there to suppress the zombies, or even corrode them.”

Gu An's words reminded Jiang Ruan that she had almost forgotten Zhang Yang had this ability.

Gu An is right. Poison-type ability users have various spell functions such as hypnosis, corrosion, and immobilization, which are determined and used according to the user's level.

Given Zhang Yang's current skill level, hypnotizing them wouldn't be difficult. The real challenge lies in the sheer size of the pit. He's only one person, so even if he tries, it'll be a drop in the ocean and probably won't be very effective.

Moreover, this method of hypnosis also has drawbacks. If Zhang Yang is not careful, he could get himself into trouble. Therefore, Jiang Ruan did not consider this method at first.

Since the zombies are coming, let's fight them. Now that we have the combined attack and healing power, plus everyone working together, there shouldn't be any problem.

Therefore, Jiang Ruan hesitated for a long time before speaking, "It's just that Zhang Yang's level is low. One or two is fine, but so many might be a bit difficult."

Jiang Ruan's concerns were not unfounded, and Gu An understood her worries.

But then, "Ring ring..."

It's the home phone!

Fearing something might happen at home, Jiang Ruan answered the phone quickly.

Wan Mei said in a low voice, "Jiang Ruan, have you found that friend yet? Can you get the diesel fuel as soon as possible?"

With a slight tremor in her voice, Jiang Ruan looked at the diesel tank in front of her and the zombie pit blocking the middle, and suddenly had a brilliant idea.

"Yes, please wait a moment, it will be ready soon."

Wan Mei seemed relieved upon hearing this, "That's good, we'll wait for you. I'll go talk to Li Ming and tell him not to worry."

"OK!"

He then hung up the phone.

Seeing that Jiang Ruan's expression was off, Gu An quickly asked, "Did something happen at home?"

Jiang Ruan shook her head. "Li Ming should be able to wait. Wan Mei's implication is that there is a shortage of fuel, but if we bring the fuel back as soon as possible, we should be fine."

"In that case, we must take it away quickly."

"That's right!"

The two exchanged glances, seemingly understanding each other's thoughts.

Without hesitation, Jiang Ruan walked to the middle of the group and said, "Zhang Yang, you, An Xia, and Qing Feng will work together to fight the zombies. An Xia will be responsible for using vines to entangle and surround them after they come up, and you will be responsible for using hypnosis to lock all the zombies into Qing Feng's cage space after they gather in a group."

"Gu An, Hua Yi, and I were responsible for moving things from the diesel storage area."

"well!"

"well!"

......

"Wait a minute, where's my name?" Mingyue listened carefully for a long time but didn't hear her own name, feeling like she was being ignored.

"Your task is the most challenging. You will be responsible for keeping watch and providing assistance. Help whichever side needs you. For now, stay with Qingfeng. We will call you if we need anything over there."

Jiang Ruan's voice was very soft, but it was clear enough for everyone to hear.

According to the division of labor, the troops split into two groups and began to act.

"Sizzle..." Just then, the zombie broke through the Vajra net and started climbing up. An Xia gritted her teeth and reached out, learning from Jiang Ruan how to control her superpower. Countless vines, guided by her, surrounded the climbing zombie.

Zhang Yang immediately reached out and scattered countless powders and dim lights from his palm to subdue the restless zombies.

"Quickly, open your prison space. My hypnosis can't last long, at most five minutes."

Zhang Yang shouted, and Qingfeng quickly opened the space as if holding up the sky with both hands, placing it at the other end of the pit. Attracted by Zhang Yang, the zombies quietly walked into it one by one.

While they were busy with rectification efforts, Jiang Ruan also managed to get to the bottom of the diesel fuel issue.

"This is it. I can arrange for a car to load it up and take it away, but it will take some time," Hua Yi said as she entered the code to open the door.

Jiang Ruan's expression was very serious, more serious than the other two had ever seen. Her deep-set eyes and brows revealed a hint of coldness.

She walked through the door Hua Yi had opened and reached into the oil barrels inside with one hand, transferring them into the space under the watchful eyes of the two people.

Ten minutes later, Jiang Ruan rubbed her slightly sore wrists before turning around.

The two people at the door remained in the same position as when they arrived. Gu An's eyes were deep and captivating, but Jiang Ruan could see the turmoil flowing in his eyes. As for Hua Yi, she was already used to it.

In his belief, "Whatever the boss does is right; she is omnipotent and all-powerful. Even if something disappears out of thin air, he can still accept it."
