"How many people are there in total?" Lu Sheng asked with a smile as he drank his milk.
Zheng Ke's face lit up with joy, and she started counting on her fingers, "There are more than 80 of us in total!"
Blue Ocean Base never intended to go all out in this operation, so they didn't bring many people; they were just there to show their support.
"My plane can only carry 10 people at a time, so 80 people would need to make eight round trips. The fuel cost is 5,000 crystals per trip, but I'll give you a discount for eight trips, how about 35,000?"
Zheng Ke: "..."
“Even first class and business class aren’t this expensive… Captain Lu, you’re asking for the moon.” Zheng Ke’s expression froze for a second. “Besides, we’re practically allies, so asking for such a high price isn’t appropriate.”
Is this fuel made of gold?! They really dare to ask for such an exorbitant price! What's the difference between this and outright robbery?!
Lu Sheng ignored her sour face and slowly sipped his breakfast milk. "There's nothing I can do. Things are valued for their scarcity. Unlike Captain Xiao, I don't have a large and well-equipped army. I only have a tiny bit of supplies. How can I survive without exchanging these for enough crystal cores?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she was met with disdainful looks from everyone at the Blue Ocean Base.
What do you mean by "only a little bit of supplies"? You even have a plane! While others are starving, you're getting breakfast milk, and even your cat is fatter than a pig. Is that what you call "only a little bit of supplies"?!
What Versailles speech?!
Xiao Ning suddenly chuckled, a sly glint in her cold eyes. "Then you can come with me, and no one will dare to bully you in the future."
The rest of Lu Sheng's group: "..."
Brother, you really dare to say that?
Just as the group was talking, a series of loud, wheezing roars suddenly came from the outside.
Zheng Kehua turned pale and staggered over to report to Xiao Ning, "The corpses we disposed of have attracted the zombies! They're rushing this way!"
Lu Sheng squinted and looked around. About 100 meters away, a huge horde of zombies was rapidly approaching.
These zombies were mostly dressed in brightly colored vests and shorts, with strips of cloth bearing numbers hanging loosely on their bodies. They were significantly larger and faster than ordinary zombies.
His sprinting speed is even faster than most superhumans.
Among them were many dark-skinned international friends who moved as fast as wild dogs.
Zhang Xiaojuan exclaimed, "Holy crap! I think an international marathon was held here before, and a lot of foreigners who specialize in long-distance running came."
Based on the pattern of superpower awakening, there is a high probability that more than half of these zombies will awaken superpowers related to speed and strength.
This group of incredibly fit and athletic zombies was incredibly fast; they had already rushed into the crowd in just a couple of sentences.
Everyone had just woken up, and many were still sleepy. The zombie horde immediately threw them into disarray.
These zombies in floral vests were already starving; they rushed in and started biting at any living person they saw.
The people at Blue Ocean Base had no choice but to hastily prepare for battle, grabbing whatever they could reach to put up a makeshift defense.
As Lu Sheng finished condensing the energy ball in his hand, he suddenly heard Xiao Ning's low, magnetic, reassuring voice in his ear, "I'm here."
This left Lu Sheng speechless.
If you're that capable, would you need to send out radio messages to call for help?
"Withdraw in sequence, abandon all those bitten on the front lines." Xiao Ning decisively gave the order.
Ma Dongmei rolled her eyes at Xiao Ning and muttered a curse under her breath.
This kind of willingness to abandon one's own people at crucial moments is something K3 Base can't learn, so they are destined to be on different paths from Xiao Ning.
The people at the Blue Ocean Base were clearly already quite adept at abandoning their teammates. At Xiao Ning's command, everyone immediately turned around and ran away.
Amidst the chaos, Xiao Ning remained by Lu Sheng's side, constantly clearing away the attacks around her.
The horde of zombies behind them continued to gather, soon forming a dark, overwhelming legion of death.
Whoosh!
Just as everyone was running wildly, a dark figure suddenly jumped down from a tree and rushed straight towards Lu Sheng.
A rotten, foul-smelling maw was aimed at Lu Sheng's neck, and a dark, slippery tongue greedily swept across her smooth, fair cheeks.
"Hehe!"
Lu Sheng's eyes narrowed, and just as he was about to release the energy blast from his hand, a flash of cold light appeared before his eyes.
The menacing zombie was cut in half at the waist and fell to the ground, crooked and sprawling.
Lu Sheng looked up in the direction of the cold light and was surprised to see that it was Xiao Ning who had made the move.
Xiao Ning smiled gently at her, then swung his long sword, hacking the zombies blocking his path to pieces.
"Captain! The road ahead is blocked too!" The Blue Ocean Base team members turned back in alarm.
Countless zombies dressed in school uniforms and marathon gear staggered out of the bushes and lunged at the crowd with bared teeth and claws.
Ma Dongmei's face darkened. "Damn it, it seems a high school was having a spring outing here. There are at least several thousand zombies left in this park!"
The faces of the dead, rotting from the dampness, looked particularly nauseating in the pale light.
The presence of a living person acted as a catalyst, instantly stimulating the evil spirits of this damp place to howl and scream.
Before Lu Sheng and the others could make a move, Xiao Ning had already rushed into the zombie horde with lightning speed.
His movements were clean and swift, without a single unnecessary movement. His sharp longsword moved through the horde of zombies as if they were nothing, and in just a few minutes, he had slaughtered all the hundreds of zombies blocking his path.
Lu Sheng was naturally happy to watch the show since someone was making a move, so he simply stood in the back row and watched the excitement.
"Captain Xiao, keep it up!"
They even had the leisure to cheer Xiao Ning on.
Xiao Ning was slightly out of breath, then turned around and gave a faint smile, "Don't worry, I'm here."
"OK".
Lu Sheng didn't refuse at all, and even clapped twice for Xiao Ning.
The others: "..."
Zhang Xiaojuan saw this and was anxious, so she quietly squeezed next to Lu Sheng.
He will protect the happiness of the mute groom!
"Sister Lu, a man who is unusually attentive to you is either up to no good or a thief."
"Um."
Do you know how to tell if a man is a bad man?
"?"
"Put your hand under his nostrils, and he'll start breathing."
6.
"Most of the good men in the world are here. The only difference is whether they're openly bad or secretly bad. Sister Lu, please don't fall for these scoundrels' tricks!"
"Meow meow meow!" Zhuangzhuang, Teacher Xu's number one fan, let out a meow of agreement.
Lu Sheng stared at Xiao Ning, who was fighting fiercely in the distance, and a playful smile appeared on his lips.
What does Xiao Ning take her for?
Is he just a naive young man with a love-struck head? Does he really think that saying a few sweet words and playing the hero will influence her?
If he likes to act heroically and show off so much, then let him be.
She came to the rescue because of the crystal core, but Xiao Ning always pretended not to know, wanting to get something for nothing.
Then I'm sorry.
She would play along with Xiao Ning until the very end, to see how long he could keep up the act!
