Chapter 27 The Hunt Begins

"Ziming! Do you think that useless loser Ye Xi got it right by accident for the second time this time?!"

After returning to the room, Yi Xiran, who lost the bet, was unwilling to accept the loss and pulled Yan Ziming, who was about to take a shower, to nag him.

He refused to admit it and thought Ye Xi was just making a random guess!

After all, he hadn't seen Ye Xi have any real abilities during this period of time.

They are all clever little tricks!

Yan Ziming looked at him helplessly. "I don't think this is a question you should be thinking about. Whether she's just guessing or really knows it, the key is that zombie abilities are indeed a great treasure for us psychics to upgrade. In the future, we must work in this direction, kill more mutant zombies, and improve our own ability levels as soon as possible."

“That makes sense!”

Yi Xiran touched his chin.

Think of your own special abilities.

If I could improve my abilities as quickly as possible, I would definitely not be like today, where I could only slap out a small flame that didn't even last for thirty seconds!

The main reason is that the mutated zombies are too fast!

Unlike ordinary zombies, which move slowly, the fire will burn quickly.

"Then Ziming, you say..."

Yi Xiran wanted to say something to Yan Ziming, but turned his head away.

Bang!

The bathroom door closed.

Yan Ziming went to take a shower.

Yi Xiran was speechless and turned his head.

I saw my empty bed again.

His bed sheet had become the burial object of the second-level zombie downstairs...

-

Next room.

Shen Yingcheng looked at the mutated zombie corpse outside the wall downstairs, thinking.

Pei Hongqing came out wiping his hair, "What? Are you still thinking about the crystal core?"

Shen Yingcheng turned his head and looked at him, "How do you feel now?"

Pei Hongqing narrowed his eyes and said, "It's better than ever before. I think if you use this crystal core, you can also break through!"

Shen Yingcheng glanced at him, slightly puzzled, and asked, “Why did you suddenly believe Ye Xi’s words just now?”

“It’s simple!”

Pei Hongqing leaned against the door and window and said quietly, "Ye Xi has indeed changed a lot. When she went to get weapons yesterday, she killed a zombie. Her technique was clean and neat, and she didn't look like someone who had just done it for the first time. Even when she shot to save me, the submachine gun wasn't that easy to use. She also said it was her first time using it."

"The more you try to hide something, the more obvious it becomes."

"yes."

Pei Hongqing said: "At present, it seems that she is indeed changing for the better. We can trust her for the time being."

"Um."

Shen Yingcheng nodded slowly.

He certainly felt it.

It’s just that I’m not sure how long Ye Xi can maintain this state.

Pei Hongqing patted his shoulder and said, "When we go to Qingxi tomorrow and find the crystal core, you should first improve your superpower. After all, your superpower has the strongest lethality in our team."

Shen Yingcheng shook his head, "The most important thing is Ye Yan and Fu Ruoqing. Their abilities are very crucial."

"That's after you. If you don't become stronger, who will protect them? And as for Ye Yan, maybe we don't even need to worry about her ability upgrades."

Pei Hongqing narrowed his eyes slightly, a playful smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

Shen Yingcheng understood what he meant, “You mean Ye Xi will take action?”

"Um."

Pei Hongqing said quietly, "Ever since she said she wanted to change, she's become a completely different person. How many secrets does she have that we don't know?"

Then, he changed the subject again and looked at Shen Yingcheng: "Anyway, I will keep a close eye on her during this period. The rest of the goal will be to hunt down mutant zombies and obtain crystal cores to enhance my abilities."

"Um."

-

On the other side, Jiangbei District.

A team of twenty people just arrived to collect supplies.

A military-modified Hummer slowly stopped.

The car door opened.

A tall, plain-looking man got out of the car and stared at the police station not far away with narrowed eyes.

Another man came over and said in a flattering tone, "Brother Wang, the police station in Jiangbei District is a few steps ahead. How many people should we send over there?"

"There aren't many weapons in the JC Bureau. Just bring a few people with me and take a look!"

After Wang Chen said this, his eyes sparkled with excitement!

He never expected that he would have another chance to be reborn!

Just a few hours ago, he blinked and returned to the present from ten years after the apocalypse!

He quickly reviewed everything that happened in his previous life!

The first thing that came to mind was the guns and weapons that were closest to him, at the Jiangbei Police Station!

For him who has just awakened his superpowers and has not had time to upgrade yet, it is an absolute combat support!

He must take away the guns and ammunition placed here and catch up with Shen Yingcheng’s team as soon as possible!

He knew that Ye Xi, the most powerful psychic in the doomsday base in his previous life, was in Shen Yingcheng's team.

The place they were going to was City B.

As long as he follows the current route, he will soon meet Shen Yingcheng's team!

Then there will be a chance to kill Ye Xi and take away her special abilities!

The more Wang Chen thought about it, the more excited he became. He urged the people around him, "Hurry up! Don't waste time! Bring the things back as soon as possible!"

After that, he will continue to pursue Ye Xi!

"yes!"

The men under him quickly packed up and prepared to head towards the JC Bureau.

But when Wang Chen and his men arrived at the door of the JC Bureau.

He just felt something was wrong.

Why did the zombie at the door die?

There is a dagger wound on the neck!

He suddenly had a bad feeling and quickly stepped inside.

The further we walked, the more zombie corpses we saw. They were obviously killed with a dagger!

Wang Chen's face suddenly changed and he quickened his pace towards the armory.

None of his subordinates understood how he could suddenly run so fast.

One of the younger brothers, Liu Gang, hurriedly said, "Brother Wang, are the weapons and guns you mentioned right here? But there's nothing here! Why is everything so empty?"

Wang Chen's eyes were bloodshot as he stared at the zombies on the ground. He couldn't help but yell, slamming his fist against the wall, gritting his teeth and saying, "Someone got there first!"

"What?"

Liu Gang was confused. "But Brother Wang, didn't you say before that no one knew about the guns here?"

Wang Chen did not answer, he was also puzzled!

In his previous life, he arrived at this place more than three months later, and the gun was still there!

Why is it gone now?

Someone got the gun first!

But besides him, who else knew there were guns in this place?

Wang Chen's face became increasingly gloomy, and his mind was thinking rapidly.

After thinking about it, there is only one possibility!

Some of his teammates from his previous life were also reborn and took the gun before him!

But... who is it?

Wang Chen narrowed his eyes and racked his brains but couldn't figure out who was the most likely person to have done this!

"Brother Wang, what should we do now? Without our guns, wouldn't this trip be in vain?"

Liu Gang looked a little unhappy.

There were originally more than 30 people in their group, but now, only about 20 people are left. If this continues, it is not known how many people can survive.

"What can you do if someone takes your things away first?"

Wang Chen said impatiently, "Besides guns, there's a large supermarket nearby. Go there to collect supplies and keep going!"

He gave an order and turned back gloomily.

Liu Gang and the others behind him looked at each other with unhappy expressions.

But there is no way.

Wang Chen is indeed the strongest in their team and has awakened his thunder ability!

And he also helped them get a lot of supplies along the way.

Now they have no other goals. If they want to survive, they can only follow Wang Chen's arrangements.

otherwise……

Suddenly thinking of something, Liu Gang's face became even uglier, and he had to urge others to catch up with Wang Chen quickly.

-

Hundred kilometers away,

Stay in a villa temporarily.

Wake up from a good sleep.

It was two hours later.

Ye Xi stretched.

I saw Ye Yan sleeping next to me.

She was in a very good mood.

In fact, after what happened last night.

She actually had other plans.

It is impossible for Ye Yan to fight the zombies by herself.

You have to rely on the team.

But in the current situation, everyone needs a crystal core.

When will the team be able to upgrade Ye Yan with the crystal core they found?

So she decided to look for zombies separately when she went to Qingxi this time.

She can kill a few level one zombies by herself.

Then give it to Ye Yan for upgrading.

Thinking of this, she glanced at the time and said, "We still have half an hour before we gather, so I'll go into the space and practice some more!"

Anyway, Ye Yan will definitely wake her up when they set off.

-

6:30 in the morning.

A group of people gathered downstairs.

After eating some self-heating rice.

Shen Yingcheng took out a map and said to everyone, "It will take three hours to get back to Qingxi Town. After that, we will take another road from Qingxi Town towards City B. We will not come back to this temporary residence."

Yi Xiran quickly raised his hand and asked, "Brother Chen, why don't we go back to Jiangbei to kill mutant zombies? Aren't there more mutant zombies there, making it easier to get crystal cores?"

"You're really good at thinking. Jiangbei and Lingnan are both located in the city center, where the largest number of people gather. Mutated zombies will recruit their companions. With just the few of us, even if we all upgrade our abilities to level three, we may not be able to escape from a dozen level two or three zombies. We're definitely going to be a waste!"

Ye Xi crossed his arms and rejected Yi Xiran's proposal without any hesitation.

Pei Hongqing glanced at her and said to Shen Yingcheng, "There's really no need to take this risk. Although I've upgraded my superpowers to level three and can kill a level two zombie, it's barely enough. They shouldn't be underestimated."

Chen Yingcheng nodded and looked at Yi Xiran. "Right now, we don't know enough about mutant zombies. If we can find a level one zombie, we should try to find one. We need to work together to kill the level two zombies. Everything is for our own safety first."

"All right."

Yi Xiran collapsed.

But he still glared at Ye Xi unhappily.

It starts with the crystal core incident yesterday.

Brother Chen and Brother Pei both listened to what she said!

An hour later.

Everyone packed up their supplies and put them into the truck.

Yan Ziming and Yi Xiran drove a truck to provide a backup.

Pei Hongqing and Fu Ruoqing went to another off-road vehicle and walked in front to lead the way.

Ye Xi and Ye Yan were still sitting in the SUV driven by Shen Yingcheng, sandwiched between the cars in front and behind.

Look out the window.

Blue light in broad daylight.

They are indeed slow to describe.

But they are very sensitive to sound.

As the car sped past, they immediately turned their heads and started chasing.

Often when the sound disappears, they stop.

The road back to Qingxi Town is very clean.

There weren't many zombies or vehicles in the way.

At around eleven o'clock, the car started to enter the town.

This town is actually not that big.

The population is only a few hundred.

If it wasn't marked as a town on the navigation, I would have thought it was just a village.

The group parked the car outside the town where there were few zombies.

Got off the car.

Ye Xi squinted his eyes and looked at the zombies wandering in the distance.

"This town is not big, so let's split into two teams."

Shen Yingcheng glanced at everyone and continued, “Xi Ran, Ruo Qing, Zi Ming follow me, Ye Yan and Ye Xi follow Pei Hongqing.”

After saying that, he threw the walkie-talkie to Pei Hongqing.

Pei Hongqing took the walkie-talkie and made an OK gesture.

Shen Yingcheng: "Pay attention to the time. Regardless of whether you encounter mutant zombies or not, you must return to this location and gather in three hours."
