Chapter 493: Airplane Searching for People
Lu Xi pointed down and said, "Dad, the pilots who came with me are coming over. Please ask someone to entertain them."
"Xiao Li, go and entertain them."
The guard following Lu Xiao responded immediately and trotted down. Lu Xiao himself stood aside eagerly, as if he wanted to go up and try it himself.
"Dad, Dad, please arrange my affairs first. I was sent here in a hurry and brought a lot of experimental materials that require setting up a laboratory." Lu Xi immediately stopped him and winked at Xin Cong, "Uncle Cong, take Lieutenant Xin and park this plane in a safe place."
"We are just borrowing you to hold the fort. If anything goes wrong, you'd better be careful that the S-level psychics in our base might turn against you," he threatened with a smirk.
"Naughty kid" Cong Qing sighed and immediately walked to the passenger seat, eager to experience the feeling.
"Hey, Xiaoxi..." Lu Xiao did not forget to look back even though he was being pulled.
"Dad, Brother Mingxu has something to tell you."
Lu Xiao immediately became serious and led his people back to the office.
"Not long after your news arrived, some well-informed bases also knew about it, and their activities immediately became more frequent. Although our entire base seems to be normal, we have actually entered a state of martial law. Brother Mingxu is worried that you are being targeted, so he asked me to bring the latest weapons to support you."
"Originally, crystal core energy will not appear in various bases for the time being. On the one hand, our base has not yet been promoted. On the other hand, the utilization rate has not reached the ideal state. It is really a waste."
"They want to move. I, your dad, didn't grow up eating vegetarian food either." Lu Xiao took out the snacks he had put aside for the two kids and gave them to Lu Xi. "Did Mingxu say how to support your brother?"
Lu Xi shook his head, looking worried, "He said he would communicate with you."
Lu Xiao immediately realized that he probably didn't know that Taotao could contact Lu Weiyi.
"Dad, don't worry. All the S-level psychics in our base have been recalled and are ready at any time. Brother Mingxu will definitely make the best arrangements," Lu Xi comforted.
"knew".
Lu Xiao asked a few more questions about the deployment of Yueban Bay. After confirming that the existing weapons, equipment and personnel there were sufficient, he took Lu Xi to install the experimental materials and equipment that he had brought back in a hurry, and handed the two children to his care.
However, it was not so harmonious for Zheng Yi who was brought back home. As soon as he entered the house, Mr. Zheng said "kneel down" and pushed him into the study.
The man, who was already nearly thirty years old, hesitated for a moment and immediately knelt down opposite the table. Without saying a word, Mr. Zheng took out a long thin whip from the drawer and whipped Zheng Yi on the back.
After a few crackling blows, blood had seeped out of the clothes on Zheng Yi's back. Fortunately, the clothes after the apocalypse were of good quality and there was no damage.
"Do you know you are wrong?" Mr. Zheng sat on the stool, panting, and asked condescendingly.
Zheng Yi clenched his teeth tightly and didn't make any cry of pain. He looked up at Mr. Zheng and said firmly, "I am not wrong."
"The entire human race is facing a threat..."
"We must first stabilize the country before we can resist foreign aggression," Zheng Yi interrupted him, saying, "If we are not united internally, how can we be united against foreign aggression?"
"We have to be humble just to convince all the bases to organize together to fight the zombies. If power is centralized, how can this happen?"
Zheng Yi was very excited. "Why has Yuebanwan been able to develop so well? Isn't it because Lu Weiyi has placed all of his people in the most important positions of the entire base?"
"Any decision he makes is enforced, and his attitude is domineering, but it also proves to be the most effective, isn't it?"
Mr. Zheng had never expected that he would actually think this way. He stared at the heir who had been nurtured by the whole family and asked calmly, "Can you say that you are not trying to take that position?"
"..." Zheng Yi paused and asked, "Is it wrong to covet that position?"
"That's right," said Mr. Zheng, "but do you think now is the right time?"
"Both zombies and mutant plants and animals are constantly improving, but it is difficult for humans to upgrade their abilities. This is the time to unite all forces to face the outside world together. Do you choose to eliminate dissidents first?"
"Are you sure that Lu Weiyi is in trouble?"
"There's news that... they saw their helicopter explode with their own eyes, and Lu Weiyi didn't get off the plane."
"Do you think your superpowers can help you survive the explosion?" asked Mr. Zheng.
"..." Zheng Yi paused, "He will be seriously injured."
After saying that, he added anxiously, "But over there is a primeval forest, with many very high-level mutant animals in the forest, especially there is a mutant who is said to be an SSS-level and an SS-level mutant plant."
Therefore, even if Lu Weiyi is SS-level, the possibility of him surviving after being injured in that situation is very low. This is also the reason why Zheng Yi dared to show up in person.
Mr. Zheng slapped the armrests of his chair. "Okay, okay, if he dies, how can you deal with that SSS-level mutant? How can you move the Guards and the Flame? Can you resist two major teams by yourself?"
"The resources possessed by Yueban Bay are what all the base teams covet. With this bait, the guards will act together." Zheng Yi said in a firm tone. He himself was also tempted by this, so he naturally believed that others would be tempted.
"The people in Yueban Bay haven't all died out yet? Do you think Zhuang Mingxu is easy to deal with? He is a madman. Have you forgotten what he did ten years ago?" Old Master Zheng's chest heaved violently.
Knowing that Mr. Zhuang wanted to get rid of Lu Weiyi, Zhuang Mingxu openly gave up the path paved for him by the entire family. This was used as a negative example by various families in the Kyoto circle at the time to educate their descendants for generations, and it also made countless families not afraid of their descendants having a wide range of women but afraid of playing with one person.
"Lu Xiao dares to burn his boats and drag everyone to death together. Do you think Zhuang Mingxu doesn't dare?" Mr. Zheng would never use the opponent's weaknesses to threaten such people. "He dares to drag all the bases to death together!"
Old Master Zheng looked at Zheng Yi with disappointment and sighed heavily, "Zheng Yi, the premise of maintaining internal stability before resisting foreign aggression is that there is no harmony within the country. Now you are the one who is pulling together the various bases to fight against foreign aggression, and you are the one who is leading the goal internally. Even if you succeed this time, do you think the various bases will listen to you?"
"Aren't they afraid that your next target will be themselves?"
There was no trace of regret in Zheng Yi's eyes. The only reluctance he felt was because he had miscalculated the Yuebanwan base and Lu Xiao's hidden strength.
Seeing his expression, Mr. Zheng guessed what he was thinking.
The child had grown up and was no longer under the control of an old man like him. Mr. Zheng stopped trying to dissuade him, "I'm old, you make your own decision, but..."
"Be prepared for the decline of Zheng's army."
Even if Mr. Zheng stepped forward to smooth things over, the Zheng family was still in a dilemma. If they continued to make trouble, Lu Xiao and Yue Banwan might risk their lives now. If they waited for Lu Weiyi to return safely, they might be met with a reckoning later.
Mr. Zheng stood up and walked out of the study. When he reached the door, he turned back and looked at him, "Zheng Yi, you must have a country before you can have everything."
What's the point of being a leader when the country no longer exists?

When Lu Weiyi hurriedly arrived at the pre-selected mountain top, it was already the next day.
His clothes were torn by many scratches from climbing all the way, and some of them were bleeding. Even his well-maintained hands had traces of being pierced by thorns.
After confirming that it was correct, Lu Weiyi instantly released more than half of his supernatural powers. The surrounding trees were hit by the huge energy, broke from the roots, and fell to the ground with a crackling sound.
The mutated animals fled in panic. Some low-level mutated plants were a little slower and were immediately cut in half. The side with the crystal core reacted quickly and buried itself underground to avoid the attack.
The sunlight shone on his body again, making Lu Weiyi feel like he was seeing the light of day again.
Although he would occasionally climb up tree trunks to determine the direction along the way, it was still very different from the open air where he was bathing without any cover at this moment. It gave him the illusion that he had left the forest, and his heart became less depressed.
I don’t know if other teammates feel the same as him. When they walk in there, they always have the illusion that they can never get out.
After using his supernatural powers to create an open space of several hundred meters, Lu Weiyi chose a slightly flat place and took out the smallest bird fighter from the space.
After finding out that there were no mutant animals or plants of too high a level in the surrounding area, Lu Weiyi got into the cockpit. As the propeller roared, the fighter plane slowly took off and gradually exceeded the height of the jungle.
The tail of the setting sun left a trace of gold in the sky and swept across the cockpit, bringing with it a dry warmth that for the first time made Lu Weiyi not feel impatient. Instead, he had a feeling of finally understanding. He seemed to understand why people often said that they needed to bask in the sun.
This is really something that can bring people hope and aspirations.
After identifying the place where the helicopter exploded, Lu Weiyi slightly avoided that location and slowly hovered over the forest. From time to time, he would honk the horn. The sound of the horn resounded in the air, attracting his companions while also attracting mutant birds in the distance.
Mutated birds could be clearly seen flying towards the plane. Lu Weiyi controlled the fighter's built-in weapons to attack from a distance, while also needing to pay attention to prevent the plane from being attacked by mutant plants again.
The first person to report the news was a water-based mutant. A huge amount of ice spread from the ground, instantly freezing all the trees within a five-meter radius. Shaped ice cones extended upward along the tree trunks until they were dozens of meters above the treetops, supporting an ice cone that was different from the surrounding ones.
Two figures quietly hid beside the ice cone and looked around. When they saw the plane, they wanted to wave and explore.
There was only one water system in the team, and Lu Weiyi quickly approached and threw the rope ladder over.
Han Fei, who met Ai Ping on the way, recognized him, grabbed the rope ladder, tied up Ai Ping with his wood ability, and quickly left the place with the two of them.
Han Fei, who climbed up first, looked around and said excitedly, "Young Master Lu, it's great that you are still alive."
