Chapter 37 Star Base
Chen Yong and the other two howled in pain. Their bodies quickly melted under the burning fireball and eventually turned into dust, disappearing from this world as if they had never existed.
Meanwhile, Lin Xiyue and her companions successfully rescued the poor women and cheered, overjoyed at their victory.
The military bunker originally occupied by Chen Yong and others fell into the hands of Lin Xiyue and others after this fierce battle.
The lunatics were all eliminated, and the twenty or so women who were tied up were also rescued by Lin Xiyue and his teammates. Now, this abandoned military base has been completely occupied by Lin Xiyue and his teammates.
Lin Xiyue led a group of people, driving six armored vehicles, and drove into the military base in a mighty procession. These armored vehicles made a huge roar, like a group of steel behemoths, showing their majesty on this barren land.
Behind the armored vehicle, a large group of women followed closely. Some of them looked terrified, some looked confused, but without exception, they all followed Lin Xiyue and her team closely, as if that was their only hope.
After all the women entered the bunker base, Lin Xiyue quickly gave orders to close the gate immediately to prevent the zombies from attacking. Then, like an agile cheetah, she leaped onto the roof of the armored vehicle and stood there, overlooking the hundreds of women below.
Lin Xiyue's voice was clear and loud, and she spoke in a clear and melodious voice, "In the apocalypse, it is truly difficult for us women to survive. But this does not mean that we have no hope of survival. The apocalypse tests human nature the most. I believe that some of you must have experienced the pain of being betrayed by your relatives or loved ones. They might sell you to men for a 55ml bottle of water or a bag of expired bread, or even push you into the zombie horde to feed those terrifying monsters..."
Suddenly, a low sob was heard from the crowd, and the sound spread quickly among the crowd like a plague. Many women heard the sobs, and remembered their own painful experiences, and could not help but shed tears silently.
At this moment, a curly-haired woman stepped forward, her voice choking as she struggled to suppress the pain within. "My name...my name is Chengyang," she continued, taking a deep breath. "I was sold by my boyfriend. He sold me to Chen Zuoshen just for a bottle of mineral water. That bastard, after awakening his water-based abilities, abandoned me without hesitation and went to the military base."
Then another woman spoke up, her voice also tinged with tears. "My name is Luan, and I was also sold by my boyfriend. He said he was going out to find food, but I watched helplessly as he got into a military vehicle, leaving me here all alone. He also said that women like us would only be a burden if we followed him..."
A young girl in the crowd couldn't help crying. "My name is Lu Haiyan," she sobbed. "My parents favor sons over daughters. When the military said there were only three spots available to go to the base, they abandoned me and my daughter without hesitation."
Finally, a slightly plump woman stepped forward, her face etched with sadness and despair. "My name is Liu Xiaopan," she said, her voice trembling. "My husband abandoned me because I was a little overweight. He drove to the base on his own, unaware that I was pregnant. It was his child! But he didn't even want his own child... Even more tragically, because I was malnourished, I miscarried on the way..."
The women each narrated their own experiences. Some talked about the pain of being separated from their families, some talked about the fear of being chased by zombies, and some cried about the sadness of losing their loved ones.
As they talked, their emotions became more and more excited, and tears flowed like a flood. They hugged each other, using their warm bodies to convey comfort and support, as if this could slightly alleviate the pain in their hearts.
Lin Xiyue paused, took a deep breath, then raised her voice and continued, "So, in the apocalypse, we can't trust anyone easily. The only one who can truly help ourselves is ourselves. We women must unite! Here, we can build a safe base of our own, search for supplies together, fight the zombies of the apocalypse together, and face all the dangers of the future together! I will lead everyone in the search for supplies and train combat skills every day. As long as we work together, there are no difficulties that cannot be overcome!"
Her words were filled with strength and determination, moving the women present. However, at this moment, a frail woman timidly asked, "But can we really do this? We don't have any special abilities."
This question hit everyone's heart like a heavy hammer. Yes, they are just a group of ordinary women, without powerful superpowers or extraordinary fighting skills. Can they really survive in this cruel apocalypse?
"We don't have special powers, how can we fight against those ferocious zombies?" another woman echoed, a hint of despair in her voice.
Lin Xiyue raised a confident smile and said softly, "Of course! Everyone has their own unique value. In this place, whether you're good at cooking, proficient in medicine, skilled in handicrafts... or have any other skills, you can benefit everyone and make your own contribution."
Lin Xiyue paused, then continued, "I will arrange for my teammates to conduct special training for you every day, focusing on your physical fitness and helping you continuously improve your physical quality. This will not only reduce the chance of illness, but also allow you to be more calm when facing various difficulties and challenges. Moreover, it's not completely impossible for any of you to activate your own abilities. As long as you are willing to work hard and persevere in trying and exploring, I firmly believe that you can achieve this goal, so please believe me. I will do my best to make you stronger and your lives better."
Gu Qinghan stared quietly at the person standing on the armored vehicle. Her figure looked particularly beautiful in the sunlight. That was the woman she loved deeply. At this moment, she was using firm and warm words to convey an important belief to these women: to survive.
Not far away, the four big words "Star Base" appeared right above the gate of the military bunker. They were carved by Lin Xiyue himself with an ice blade, as if symbolizing hope and light.
