Chapter 285 Sheng Hong departs
Night fell again, and when the clock struck midnight, Han Shuo and the others were already fast asleep.
At this moment, they did not know that Wang Bahu had completed his fifth evolution, they did not know that the sandstorm outside would subside by tomorrow morning, and they were even more unaware that... a great crisis was about to strike!
...
Meanwhile, in the zombie city.
The Zombie King walked straight out of his little house.
His pure white eyes, devoid of any emotion, gazed at the night sky.
"Is this sandstorm finally going to stop?"
He felt the strong winds weaken rapidly, and amidst the swirling yellow sand, he could still vaguely see a few stars in the night sky.
This is the eve of the sandstorm's end, a sign that it is about to dissipate.
The zombie king stood there for an unknown amount of time, standing amidst the horde of zombies like a star surrounded by its patrons.
The crimson color on his body was incredibly sinister and eerie.
Sudden!
He turned and went back into the room. Next to the old chair was a special instrument that was nearly two meters tall and looked extremely complicated.
The zombie king stretched out an arm and quickly touched it.
While operating the instruments, he was also murmuring softly to himself.
"Yue Zongyang, you probably don't even realize that the satellite you rely on most has already been hacked by me."
"Although I didn't master this technology back then, but... have you forgotten? I used to be your most outstanding student."
"If you knew that your apprentice's skills have surpassed yours, you would probably be very pleased."
At that moment, all the indicator lights on the instrument lit up, and the zombie king's lips curled up slightly. He knew he had succeeded.
He let the instruments in the room move automatically, and the next second, he walked out of the room again.
The Zombie King smiled and glanced at the legion of death he had assembled.
"Although, with my current strength, I don't need to control your satellite."
"But if I don't do this, I'm afraid you'll start running away the moment I set off, won't you?"
"After all, you're a coward. In the past two years, you haven't even dared to show your face."
"Yue Zongyang, if we let you get away, this game won't be fun anymore, don't you think?"
At this point, he shifted his gaze from the Legion of Death and looked into the distance.
That direction is where the underground research institute is located.
A melancholy voice came from the zombie king's mouth.
"Are you ready to welcome me?"
...
the next day.
As the sun rose slowly in the east at dawn, the sandstorm finally stopped completely.
Just then, Han Shuo, Xiao Zhao, and Chen Hai finished breakfast and were about to relieve Fatty from guarding Wai Di when they were greeted by their first guest of the day.
As for Li Shurou, she had already gone to her workplace to continue her research on the turbid liquid before dawn.
"Knock knock knock!" A knocking sound rang out.
Han Shuo already guessed who it was, and he got up and hurriedly went to open the door.
Sure enough, the door opened, and there was Cheng Shenghong.
He came to say goodbye.
Han Shuo shifted his position slightly, wanting to welcome him inside.
"Brother Demon Man, come in and have a seat."
Cheng Shenghong did not enter the room; he stood outside and spoke.
"Brother Han, I won't go in. My brothers are still waiting for me in the garage."
Han Shuo nodded, understanding Cheng Shenghong's purpose in coming, and then a smile appeared on his face.
"Brother Demon Man, shall we set off today?"
"Yes, the food has all been replaced. It's all food with a long shelf life. Since we have nothing else to do here, it's best to leave as soon as possible."
"Let's go, wait for us at the rendezvous point."
After Han Shuo finished speaking, he stepped forward and gave Cheng Shenghong a deep hug.
Although he and Cheng Shenghong had not known each other for long, they got along very well.
In the apocalypse, in a time when people are treacherous, to have such an ally is a rare and precious thing.
The two embraced briefly before separating, and Cheng Shenghong nodded solemnly.
"Brother Han, don't worry, we won't leave until you come. We will do everything in our power to protect your food!"
Han Shuo smiled and spoke without any hesitation.
"Brother Yao Nan, you don't need to say these things. I trust your character!"
After he finished speaking, the two people at the door fell silent for a moment.
They were all a little unaccustomed to this farewell scene.
It was Cheng Shenghong who broke the silence first, cupping his hands in a fist and bowing, and said earnestly.
"Well then, Brother Han, I'll take my leave now. See you later!"
Han Shuo nodded, and then clasped his hands in a fist salute to Cheng Shenghong.
"Brother Demon, please be careful! See you later!"
...
Cheng Shenghong left, and they left the underground research institute safely with several truckloads of food.
He was the first person to go out when the underground research institute was unsealed that day.
And today, he is the first person to evacuate from here.
He didn't know if he could ever come back. He only hoped that he could see Han Shuo and the others' faces again at the rendezvous point.
He also hoped that this period wouldn't be too long...
...
After seeing Cheng Shenghong off, Han Shuo brought Xiao Zhao to Wai Di's ward once again.
As soon as he entered the room, he quickly asked.
"Fatty, how's Wai-di doing?"
The fat man was lying on the hospital bed next to him with his legs crossed.
He was fiddling with a game console he'd stolen from somewhere, and replied without even looking up.
"The medical staff who changed the dressing said that Wai Di's condition was relatively stable, but he was still in a coma."
"Still not awake?" Xiao Zhao quickly went forward to check on the situation.
Han Shuo sighed, sat by the hospital bed for a while, and then spoke.
"Alright, Fatty, you can go back now. Xiao Zhao and I can keep an eye on things here."
"No, let Xiao Zhao stay with me. You go do what you need to do. I'm a patient too, okay? It's great here. I get to see all sorts of beautiful nurses every day."
"Well……"
Han Shuo shook his head with a wry smile. He felt that if Li Shurou heard the fat man's last sentence, he would definitely be in big trouble.
"Alright, you stay here then, I'm going back."
It's not good to have too many people in the ward, so Han Shuo decided to visit Brother Qingyu again.
If Wai Di's situation remains stable, he plans to give Li Shurou two more days.
Regardless of whether she has mastered the technology of purifying turbid liquid, Han Shuo has decided to lead everyone to evacuate from here the day after tomorrow.
Han Shuo didn't know many people in the entire underground research institute.
He planned to spend his last days visiting this respected elder brother one last time.
