Chapter 73 Settling Down in the Capital



When Nan Xiangwan learned that Xiao Jing's revenge had failed, she burst into laughter.

"I never realized our brothers were all so adorable! It's hilarious, hahaha..."

Everyone: ...

Bei Minghao was laughing so hard he rolled around on the bed. Who would have thought that no one wanted the beauty he was giving away for free?

Shangguan Yu, who had just woken up, was even more confused, not knowing what kind of riddle they were talking about, and looked completely bewildered.

Finally, Zhan Siyu said, "Alright, since you brothers are so disgusted, let's keep an eye on them for now and deal with them when we set off. As long as they don't starve, that's fine."

In the end, Xiao Ling'er escaped this calamity.

With the aftermath of the Chaoyang base still unresolved, the group held another brief meeting.

Then, Bei Minghao and Xiao Jing, two eloquent men, were sent to persuade them to defect. As long as their character was good, they were all accepted. They were about to arrive in the capital, and it was said that manpower had to be replenished, otherwise who would do the work later.

We always need to find some laborers.

While they were busy causing trouble, Song Bin at the Chaoyang base was also sending his men out to kill zombies and mine crystal cores.

However, since many of the nearby zombies had been gathered together by Nan Xiangwan to form a zombie horde, there were very few left.

When his subordinates retrieved the few scattered crystal cores, Song Bin tested them first, and his superpowers did indeed upgrade. In the following days, most people went to look for crystal cores, while the ordinary people who had been locked in the basement were pulled out to repair the walls.

Not long after, Xiao Jing led his men into action. If they hadn't all been out searching for things, he really wouldn't have been able to turn them all against their will. As a result, after only two days, Song Bin noticed that there were fewer and fewer superhumans around him.

If we don't discover the problem soon, we'll be really stupid.

But what could he do knowing that? There were very few people left around him. It wasn't until Bei Minghao led his men to destroy his stronghold that he realized the situation was hopeless. Even he was tied up and reunited with his son.

When Song Ke saw that his father had also been captured, he cried even more bitterly.

After Nan Xiangwan and Zhan Siyu openly confiscated all the supplies, they also took the ordinary people with them. After all, they were human and couldn't just kill innocent people indiscriminately, unless they were asking for trouble.

Chaoyang Base changed hands just like that. Actually, calling it a base was just a temporary shelter that individuals had fenced off. Otherwise, how could the zombies have broken through so easily?

After resting for two days, Zhan Siyu took out 10 buses and began his journey north.

Because there were too many people this time, it was difficult to find a suitable place to stay. Each time, they would find an open space, start a fire to cook, and then take turns resting in the car.

Xiao Ling'er and the Song father and son were stuffed into the trunk of the car, waiting to be fed to the zombies at any time; this was their last remaining use.

After recovering from his illness, Shangguan Yu remained depressed because of his woman's betrayal. Whenever Xiao Jing saw his miserable face, he would start cursing, but Shangguan Yu acted as if he didn't hear him at all, lost in his own world.

In the end, he gave up. This person can only figure things out on his own and move on, otherwise his life would just be like this, no different from being a walking corpse.

The main force traveled at a stop-and-go pace until it finally reached the outer ring road of Beijing.

"Phew, we're almost there. If we keep walking like this, I'll be exhausted," Nan Xiangwan said with a sigh.

"Brother Zhan, how much longer until we arrive?"

While massaging Nan Xiangwan, Zhan Siyu answered his brother-in-law's questions.

"It'll be soon, but you need to be prepared. I don't know if Zhang, the person I set up at the base, is still alive. If he's dead or someone else has taken it, we might have to move to another location."

"Sigh, I think we might as well find another place," Nan Haochen said with a sigh.

"How about this, let's find a place to stay first. Wanwan and I will go and find out the current situation in Beijing. After all, we've been in the apocalypse for so long, and without communication tools, we're practically blind. Only with definite information can we do what we need to do next."

“I think it’s possible, but where can we fit so many of us right now?” Xiao Jing asked.

Zhan Siyu pondered for a moment and said, "I remember there's a university nearby that was on holiday when the apocalypse came, so there shouldn't be too many zombies there. It's perfect for our current situation. What do you think?"

“That’s feasible. Now that the goal is clear, let’s set off as soon as possible. It’s better to build the base sooner rather than later, otherwise we will never feel safe.”

After everyone rested, Zhan Siyu drove and led the way, and they soon arrived at the university.

Looking at the empty playground, it felt chilly.

"Wanwan, keep an eye on the surroundings. I'll check what's going on inside."

Okay, be careful.

Zhan Siyu released his mental energy, which covered the entire university teaching building, and quickly found out the situation inside.

Apart from a few scattered zombies, there was nothing unusual at the moment, so everyone was allowed to drive in.

"Ah Zhan, what do you think of using this university as a base? There are so many dormitories, saving on beds, and there's a ready-made cafeteria. Most importantly, the location is also good. The only downside is that the surrounding area is too open. If a zombie apocalypse occurs here, there will be no way to escape."

Zhan Siyu also pondered Nan Xiangwan's words and thought they were feasible. As for the open space, it wasn't a problem. As long as the firewall was strong enough, he wasn't afraid. The only variable was the zombie king, and he didn't know when he would encounter it.

I just hope it appears soon, so we don't have to wait until it becomes incredibly powerful and unkillable.

“I think it’s a good idea. The area here is not only large, but the facilities are also quite complete. The dormitory buildings are convenient for living and management, which is very suitable for the current situation. We just need to make sure the wall is built solidly.”

"In that case, let's leave it here. Let's go clear out the zombies first, then assign tasks. As for your previous base, we'll see if there are still people there later," Nan Xiangwan said anxiously.

Thinking that she would soon have a stable home, she was overjoyed; her laid-back life was finally about to begin.

After hearing the suggestion, Xiao Jing thought it was a good idea. As long as he could get a good night's sleep, he didn't care where he was. The only thing he needed to do now was to improve his overall abilities. After all, the zombies along the way were leveling up like crazy, and if he didn't take action soon, he would be unable to defeat them.

Since they were looking for a place to rest, the group started cleaning up the dormitory. Soon, all the zombies inside were cleared out, and then the crystal cores were dug out and burned to the ground.

Zhan Siyu was, after all, the leader of the base. He requisitioned the school's elite dormitory building and had everyone else live in the ordinary dormitory area, except for his own subordinates.

Nan Xiangwan found a clean and spacious room and started tidying it up. Although it wasn't as nice as a villa, it was still clean and spacious.

Zhan Si smiled as he saw the little woman busy with various tasks, and then went on to arrange other work.
