Chapter 66 New Base
A glimmer of light passed, and Lu Nian appeared behind Xu Zhiyang, with his head lowered, avoiding the sight of several people.
Xu Zhiyang quickly handed the coat to Lu Nian: "Why did you come out?"
Lu Nian shrank his neck timidly, wishing he could bury himself with Xu Zhiyang's coat.
But thinking that he couldn't keep lagging behind, Lu Nian suppressed his fear and whispered to Xu Zhiyang: "I...or else...I, I'll go over...and take a look."
Xu Zhiyang was surprised: "Can you do this? Don't force yourself."
Lu Nian clutched Xu Zhiyang's sleeve tightly, "It should... can, can..."
"Okay, be careful. Come back if you're scared." Xu Zhiyang pinched his shoulders to comfort him.
Lu Nian nodded, not daring to look at anyone. After turning back into a fox, he slid off Momo. He ran like a kitten, jumping and skipping.
Mu Ke became interested and looked at Lu Nian's back, "What can this alien do?"
Xu Zhiyang was stunned for two seconds, then hesitated and said, "Acting cute?"
Li Huiyin laughed: "Yeah, it's so small, I guess it can't even beat a cat."
Qin Shiyu laughed: "Although he is small, he runs quite fast, and his small size makes him difficult to be discovered."
Zhu Ci didn't care about these things. He just wanted to ask when Lu Nian could get out of Xu Zhiyang's pocket.
"He's really cute though. He seems to be two years older than me, but he's usually timid like a child, which makes me want to protect him."
Xu Zhiyang has been petting the fox a lot these past two days, and its fur is very soft and smooth.
Li Huiyin nodded: "I can see that the kid is taller than you."
“…”
Xu Zhiyang smiled friendly: "I will grow longer."
"Well, you're not short." Zhu Ci rubbed the boy's head like stroking hair.
As he was speaking, Lu Nian came out jumping and skipping. There was no need for Momo to squat down. He could jump back into Xu Zhiyang's arms with a few small jumps.
Xu Zhiyang guessed that this should be Lu Nian's ability after becoming an alien, jumping, speed, and probably hearing.
Lu Nian's beast-shaped ears are big and erect, so his hearing should be not much worse than Mu Ke's.
Logically speaking, the energy of animals like foxes should be water, but Lu Nian's energy is fire.
Lu Nian returned to his human form, still hiding behind Xu Zhiyang, and whispered, "There are survivors inside. I heard the sound of humans playing in the distance, and the smell of gunfire."
Xu Zhiyang and Zhu Ci exchanged a glance: "Looks like this is the survivors' base?"
Zhuci: "That should be it."
Li Huiyin's eyes lit up. They hadn't met many people along the way, and the Six Gods Gang was the one they didn't want to recall.
Suddenly a base appeared, and she was still a little curious: "What should we do? Do we need to take a detour?"
Qin Shiyu opened the map and studied it carefully for a while. "No, taking a detour is too troublesome for us. Besides, other roads are in densely populated areas. I'm afraid there will be a wave of zombies."
Xu Zhiyang: "Then should we go in?"
As he was speaking, Xu Zhiyang saw out of the corner of his eye that Lu Nian used one finger to hook open his wide pocket.
Xu Zhiyang quickly stopped Lu Nian from trying to get into his pocket. Not knowing whether to laugh or cry, she pulled his fingers away and whispered, "Don't be afraid. They're all very nice. If you keep hiding, how are you going to make new friends?"
Lu Nian secretly looked around, his shoulders shook slightly, and he didn't say anything, but he no longer tried to reach into Xu Zhiyang's pockets.
"Is there a second obstacle there?" Xu Zhiyang glanced into the distance, but it was too far away to see clearly.
Zhu Ci observed carefully through the telescope for a while, "It looks like a high wall made of various metals and stones."
Mu Ke said, "Then let's go in? It's getting dark, and taking a detour is unrealistic."
"Not only is it unrealistic." Xu Zhiyang took over the task, "Have you noticed that since we left the underground laboratory, we haven't seen a single zombie on the way here."
Qin Shiyu had a bad feeling in his heart: "Second brother, what do you mean..."
"I don't really want to share my guess, but everyone should be prepared. There might be mutated zombies here too."
Hearing this, several people thought of the golden energy zombie king - Yan Shen.
Li Huiyin wailed, "Alas, life is so hard. Not only do we have to resist mutated plants and animals, but now even zombies have evolved."
"So before we reach the imperial capital (City A), we all need to at least advance to the second level." Qin Shiyu said seriously, "Second brother, your energy must at least reach the first level."
Xu Zhiyang frowned and thought for a moment, "I'll try my best..."
Others only need to evolve towards one energy, but he still has four energies to evolve!
In order to maintain the balance of team evolution, he usually gave the gold energy and wood energy to Li Huiyin and Zhu Ci Mu Ke.
However, now there is another fire energy Lu Nian.
Xu Zhiyang sighed, it became more difficult for him to advance.
"I really want to be a salted fish..." Xu Zhiyang lay on Momo's back with a bitter smile.
Li Huiyin became excited and immediately sobbed, "It's my fault, sister-in-law. I'm not strong enough to protect you..."
Xu Zhiyang: “…”
A few people were amused and regained some spirits.
"Momo, jump in!" Qin Shiyu said loudly.
"Woof woof!"
Momo lifted his leg and easily jumped over the first obstacle, then walked inside with several of his masters.
The streets on both sides of the road were blocked, and sharpened wood was placed at each intersection, followed by solid barbed wire.
After walking forward for a while, a huge hole suddenly appeared on the road, spanning the entire road!
Qin Shiyu hurriedly said: "Momo stop!"
Zhuci: "I'll go down and take a look."
"I'll go with you." Xu Zhiyang followed Zhu Ci and slid down from Momo's body. As they approached the edge of the pit, Xu Zhiyang widened her eyes slightly.
The pit was very deep, about ten meters, and the bottom was filled with spikes. There were many zombies that were not yet dead, and they would howl when they saw the two people popping their heads out.
"Nice defense..." Xu Zhiyang covered her mouth and nose and winked at Zhu Ci, "I'm done... shall we go?"
Zhu Ci frowned and glanced at the rotten corpse, then immediately nodded, took Xu Zhiyang's hand and jumped onto Momo.
Li Huiyin saw that the two of them looked unhappy and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something?"
Xu Zhiyang raised his head to take a breath of fresh air, hummed, and said tactfully: "Just some zombies and flies... and... the children of flies?"
Everyone: “…”
“…Ugh.” Li Huiyin felt disgusted.
Momo and a few others approached the second obstacle, and Xu Zhiyang heard someone talking behind the wall made of various things.
Qin Shiyu: "Momo, stand here, no need to go forward."
"Woof woof."
After a while, several people appeared from behind the wall, looked at them, and set up heavy machine guns to face them.
Li Huiyin suggested: "How about we raise the white flag?"
Xu Zhiyang: "It's okay, they shouldn't shoot for now."
Behind the wall, a man held up a loud speaker from a wet market and shouted, "Who are you? What are you doing here?! Don't try to break in! We will shoot!"
