Chapter 95 The Skull Convoy Arrives



In everyone's opinion.

Just as Dr. Tang said, this top-ranked guy should indeed be over thirty years old.

To my surprise, it turned out to be an 18-year-old girl!

I was so surprised.

That was so unexpected.

No matter how hard they racked their brains, they couldn't figure out how an 18-year-old girl could have the ability to overpower everyone and become number one on the leaderboard.

However, Dr. Tang ignored their surprise and continued to 'reveal' the information.

“Ouyang Qianjin is a patient of our hospital. She was diagnosed with ALS after her parents died in a car accident when she was eight years old. Now she has been affected by both legs.”

"Our hospital estimates that the patient will not live past the age of 20."

At this point, Dr. Tang gave a wry smile.

It is ironic that a dying man could become number one under such an unprecedented change.

It is an irony directed at all able-bodied people.

Indeed, some people lowered their heads in embarrassment after hearing what Dr. Tang said.

After all, sometimes it really is true that comparing people is a recipe for disaster, and comparing goods is a recipe for disaster.

In comparison, those in the 25th and 26th grades seem a bit 'dull'.

"Oh, by the way, you know the Ouyang Group in J City next door, right? It's an enterprise owned by the Ouyang family."

"If this accident hadn't happened, and things had continued on the normal trajectory, she would have officially inherited all of the Ouyang family's businesses on the day she turned 18."

"This matter is common knowledge in the hospital, and people are even betting on whether she can successfully take over these businesses."

"After all, the Ouyang family's businesses were in the hands of her uncle Ouyang Xiu when Ouyang Qianjin was hospitalized."

"..."

After hearing Dr. Tang's basic information about Ouyang Qianjin, everyone fell silent.

All right.

Before the apocalypse, they had money; after the apocalypse, they had power.

No matter what, they can't compare.

Fortunately, he died young, which made the team leaders feel somewhat better.

The team captains present couldn't help but feel a pang of jealousy.

But that's how people are; they can always find a psychological balance to comfort themselves.

Although they are unaware that Ouyang Qianjin's condition has been contained due to her skills, and she will not die from this illness in the future.

Even if they know, they'll find other reasons to comfort themselves.

"I have a general idea now. It seems there's a reason why this young lady from the Ouyang family can occupy the top spot on the list."

To be honest, after hearing about Ouyang Qianjin's situation, Xue Manqi developed a very good impression of the girl.

Despite being plagued by illness, he can still do this much.

It made even this grown man feel ashamed.

If it weren't for the fact that I needed to manage the base and distribute supplies, I might very well have competed with them for this ranking.

He originally didn't want to be the base commander.

However, he intervened because the situation was so chaotic when the group fled to the airport.

As a result of his excellent management of the airport base, his superiors directly sent him a hundred or so sets of military uniforms, a letter of appointment, and some other things.

Thus, Xue Manqi became the officially recognized base chief by the higher-ups here.

Even if he didn't want to do it, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and do it.

However, the name on the letter of appointment, along with the location of the survivor base in City C, seemed to him like it had been hastily written on before they even met...

Thinking of the carefree days of riding horses and wandering adventures with swords in hand, which were long gone, Xue Manqi couldn't help but feel a surge of bitter tears.

"Then let's get ready now..."

"Base Commander, someone is coming from the direction of Airport Avenue."

Just as Xue Manqi was preparing to make some defensive arrangements, a soldier dressed in the same Federal Army uniform entered and interrupted his plans.

"What! So fast? Weren't they saying the opposing team was slowed down because of their convoy?"

Xue Manqi was somewhat surprised.

The scouts had previously reported that the enemy was unlikely to arrive for at least two or three hours.

As a result, the other party was already within visual range in just a few tens of minutes?

It's already dark!

If you can see this clearly, how far away can it be?

"Old Tang, you and I will go outside the base to check the situation. The rest of you, take your teams and prepare for battle."

"If negotiations break down, everyone should be prepared to fight to the death!"

After all, we're in a chaotic world, and no one can guarantee what others will do.

While I admire Ouyang Qianjin's abilities, I pity her plight.

But he wouldn't let his guard down even if it was just an 18-year-old girl.

Moreover, he is a necromancer who is often portrayed as an 'evil representative' in many works.

Why did Miss Ouyang arrive so quickly?

The reason is quite simple.

She had mentioned before that she wanted to take a shower as soon as possible.

So they loaded all of Zhang Yuan's surplus horses, cattle, and sheep into one or two carts.

The result of then using Canon's logistics techniques to force a march.

Besides, it's already getting dark. If we can't reach the base area tonight, we won't be able to find a place to pen our extra cattle and sheep.

This put the Zhang brothers in a difficult position.

No matter how much they cursed and swore they would never ride a skeletal horse again, it was no use.

"It's a bit difficult to hold..."
