Chapter 33 As the Zombie King, it makes sense for me to become the savior, right?
On the way.
Zhao Chuan took the initiative to send friendly messages. Although the other two were forced to become his subordinates, they were unwilling to offend Bai Yuan during this period.
So both sides actively communicated with each other.
The older one is called Chen Jieqing and the younger one is called Chen Hao. They are uncle and nephew. They got a large sum of money from demolition in their early years and simply chose to open a modification shop.
Most of the people who come here are interested in this or have plenty of money.
In addition, both of them had good skills, and their business soon became successful. But who could have imagined that zombies would appear in this stall.
Having said this, the two men subconsciously fell silent and looked at the boss in the back seat.
I almost forgot.
The other party is also a zombie.
Seeing that Bai Yuan didn't say anything, but looked at the scenery outside the window silently and gloomily, it seemed that he was thinking about the terrible idea of how to rule more zombies.
Zhao Chuan didn't want people to misunderstand his boss. "Our boss just looks a little difficult to get along with, but he is actually very gentle and considerate."
As he spoke, Zhao Chuan couldn't help but recall the scene when the boss rescued him from the closet. His expression couldn't help but become moved. After he came to his senses, he said, "As long as you don't betray our boss, he will be very good to his subordinates. You will know it later."
Uncle and nephew of the Chen family: "..."
It seemed like I was warned and threatened again.
They had indeed witnessed the boss's terrifying power along the way. All the zombies around them became visibly quiet, as if they were controlled by something.
When we got to the road, we saw all kinds of obstacles and cars blocking the way, so that only one person could squeeze in. But if there was a zombie in the car, there would be no time to escape.
Chen Hao could no longer suppress his curiosity and nervousness, and asked cautiously, "How do we get through this?"
You can't control the zombies to move these things away.
Although zombies are stronger than ordinary people, it would probably be dark by the time we continue moving like this.
Or maybe.
Utilize the previous spatial ability?
Just thinking about taking the things away and then releasing them somewhere farther away would consume a lot of mental energy. The crystal cores of zombies are not endless.
Zhao Chuan had full trust in Bai Yuan, but he was also wondering in his heart how the boss would deal with these road obstacles.
Bai Yuan said: "Go on, drive."
He released many energy balls silently, crossed his legs, closed his eyes and said nothing, only his fingertips were tapping his legs lightly.
He looks like a very big boss.
"Let's drive." Zhao Chuan urged.
Chen Jieqing gritted his teeth, stepped on the accelerator, and drove the car forward slowly, even preparing for a collision.
The next moment.
The messy obstacles in front of him seemed to have been wiped out and disappeared in an instant. Corpses fell to the ground one by one, and zombies sat on the ground in a daze, making hoarse sounds.
And then.
These corpses and zombies were thrown on both sides of the street by invisible forces, thus creating a road that could accommodate vehicles.
Along the way.
The vehicles around disappeared one after another, and things like rocks and trees were thrown to the edge like the corpses.
Inside the car, everyone was silent.
They could not hide their shock and inexplicable horror, but Zhao Chuan was the only one who showed an excited and fanatical expression. He was so lucky to be able to follow such a boss.
Zhao Chuan turned his head and looked at the empty road behind him. He suddenly said, "If someone drives a car next time, they can leave from this road."
When the uncle and nephew of the Chen family heard this, they were stunned.
How many people were unable to escape by car because of vehicles and various obstacles.
Only large teams can rely on heavy weapons and various special abilities to forge a path forward, but this will come at a considerable price.
But it's different now.
This road is unobstructed, so there is no need to be afraid even if it is blocked by zombies.
And all this.
It’s all related to the zombie in front of you.
Everyone knows that these broken cars are worthless. The other party can just put the cars into the space and then throw them out. This is more convenient and quicker, and it doesn't take up much space.
However, even so, the streets are still in a mess and it is impossible to drive on them.
The other party's thankless behavior can only mean that they are deliberately clearing a path.
Chen Hao felt complicated and hesitant. He originally thought that this group of people could recognize a zombie as their leader, and that he was not a big deal. But now that he thought about it, the other party had never hurt him or his uncle throughout the whole process.
He couldn't help but think in a trance.
It seems... the other party is really good.
But soon, the expressions of Zhao Chuan and the other two began to look strange.
It's been more than ten minutes. Why hasn't the other party taken out all the broken cars they collected?
No matter how big the space is, it won’t be able to accommodate it.
After the car had been driving for two hours, the expressions of the three people had become completely numb, and they belatedly realized one thing.
Those disappeared cars were not taken away by space.
and……
The three of them couldn't help but look at the zombie who was sitting there with his eyes closed and didn't show any sign of fatigue at all. They were shocked beyond words.
The opponent had already used his supernatural power for two full hours, but there was no sign of any power being consumed.
This...how strong is the mental power?
The uncle and nephew of the Chen family couldn't help but shudder. This zombie was so strong that they didn't even dare to think of escaping.
"Boss, why don't we find a place to rest for a while?" Zhao Chuan was afraid that Bai Yuan would over-consume his supernatural powers, and looked worried and guilty.
After all.
The eldest brother works so hard just to let them reunite with their families as soon as possible, and the small gathering place is just a by-product.
After all, humans are the least valuable thing in the apocalypse.
If you look carefully, you will find many similar small gathering places and camps.
There is absolutely no need for the boss to go far away.
Bai Yuan opened his eyes, "Don't stop."
He has learned to calmly ignore the various strange emotions that people around him convey from time to time, as long as there is no danger to their lives, and the undisguised malice.
He won't pay too much attention.
When Bai Yuan thought of this, he suddenly looked thoughtful.
He had always been puzzled as to why some zombies had red souls and some did not. After frequently controlling various zombies over the past two days, he found that the probability of a red soul was not high.
They account for about four-tenths of the zombies.
This seems to have nothing to do with the zombie's age and gender before death, but it is true that male zombies will have more red, and if they are of a strong physique, the proportion will be higher.
Considering that before this virus invaded this world, the rules of this world were complete, otherwise it would not have tried so hard to leave a trump card for humans to awaken their superpowers.
Since he wants to save humanity, he also wants to fight back.
But obviously, it failed.
Bai Yuan had a vague guess in his mind. He had never tried to absorb this kind of red energy before. A large amount of mental power spread out, and he soon found a zombie that met the requirements.
Bai Yuan tried to absorb some red energy.
There's something odd about this thing.
There is also a faint feeling of familiarity.
really.
After Bai Yuan absorbed all the red energy, he became more certain of his guess.
Same as the previous world.
When someone wants to harm the Regent, the Son of Destiny, an invisible rule will protect him.
And these red energies are actually a bit like that kind of rules, but if you have to say it, this is more like a mark.
A mark indicating whether this person has killed anyone in his life.
I can’t say 100% of young students, women, and children have this energy, but most of them don’t.
Considering that this is a cruel apocalypse, it is not difficult to guess what these marks are.
Coincidentally.
There were no such marks in the consciousness of the zombies of level one or above that had been killed before.
Perhaps because their souls have been annihilated, they have become another kind of life and are no longer governed by the rules of this world.
After Bai Yuan sorted out his thoughts, he looked at the three people in the car.
He silently released his mental power and carefully sensed the souls in the three people's sea of consciousness. Sure enough, the souls of the living were complete, more like a transparent little man curled up in the deepest part.
Other spiritual people cannot see souls.
Only a monster like him who can devour everything can see these things.
The souls of these three people are pure and clean, without any trace of red.
But these samples are not enough.
As they were almost at the small gathering place, he could verify whether this hypothesis was correct.
The car drove slowly.
The journey was not so smooth. Occasionally, we would encounter some first- or second-level zombies, as well as various small zombie waves.
There were several times when the uncle and nephew of the Chen family almost thought they were dead.
But in the blink of an eye, the situation took a drastic turn. No matter how dangerous the situation was, Bai Yuan could easily resolve it.
During this period.
All the vehicles he devoured were converted into stored energy. They were not as good as gold and jade, but they were faster and could absorb viruses in the air.
Two-pronged approach.
Everyone will unconsciously admire the strong, but if someone is so strong that you no longer have to worry about anything, you can't help but feel grateful and trust him.
Even Chen Hao did not realize this.
He almost completely ignored the fact that the boss was actually a zombie, and looked outside with admiration, "Oh my god, that's awesome."
Zhao Chuan couldn't help but feel proud and complacent: "That's right."
Since Bai Yuan's face could not move at all, he maintained a calm, indifferent and aloof expression. His indifferent look made Chen Hao, who was only 20 years old and had a head full of second-year mentality, even more starry-eyed.
Although Chen Jieqing didn't go so far as to exaggerate, he had already begun to think that if he could stay with the boss for the rest of his life with free food and lodging, it might not be a problem.
At least you don’t have to worry about being eaten by zombies anymore.
This sense of security is really sufficient.
…
As soon as it got dark, the zombies' roars seemed to become more intense.
Even those with special powers dare not travel in the dark.
therefore.
When a car drove slowly into the town, it soon attracted the attention of some people who were secretly following it, and they quietly went back to report to their boss.
"With just one car, they dare to run around outside? Forget it, how many good things can a car hold? Just pretend that I didn't see them."
There was also a small group that thought that no matter how many people there were in this car, there would be no more than five. They had a total of more than 30 people and they would definitely be able to capture these people.
It's not just for plundering resources, but also for population.
People can be used as blood bags and bait, or they can be fed with just a little food to make them work, and when there is no food, they can eat people.
Seeing that they were almost at the small gathering place, Zhao Chuan immediately activated his special abilities and sent a message to his parents using the wind as a medium.
"Mom and Dad, I'm Zhao Chuan. The four of us are all fine. By the way, we will arrive at the gathering place around 8 o'clock in the evening."
This means don't attack this car.
There are three small groups around the small gathering place. One of them is a murderer who just got out of prison. He took a group of prisoners and occupied the prison. He also got various guns and weapons. He soon became the most feared existence here.
Secondly.
The other two are small groups composed of first-level psychics, while the small base is filled with ordinary people, whose purpose is to survive together.
There were also some people who got into fights, but those who knew each other well in the town and knew each other's personalities also stayed here.
In addition to Zhao Chuan, there are two other people with special abilities in the small gathering place.
One of the psychics always carries a knife on his back and rarely interacts with ordinary people. He goes out every day to search for various supplies. When he comes back at night, he asks people with good skills to help him cook a meal. It seems like he is just here to waste his time.
Another person with special abilities, whose family used to run a Taekwondo gym, happened to be neighbors with Pang Lei's family. There were some minor frictions between the two sides, but they both knew that they could only survive by sticking together.
All frictions and dissatisfaction were suppressed.
.
Small gathering place.
It was not completely dark yet, and everyone had only lit a few torches and stuck them on both sides. Many people were standing in the distance, looking frightened and uneasy.
There were obviously two groups of people standing in the center, confronting each other silently.
One of the two leaders was tall and slender, and the other was strong and powerful. One of them said, "Brother Pang, it's been five days, and your son hasn't come back yet because he rescued Zhao Chuan. We have to change someone to take charge of this small base, right?"
Pang Yong's chest rose and fell with anger: "It's fine for you to make the decision, but this base was initially built by Zhao Chuan and a few brothers. Even the location of the warehouse was found by Zhao Chuan. What right do you have to take away these supplies?"
Liu Tianyu on the opposite side did not change his expression. It was obvious that he was determined to succeed in this matter today. "We are all from the same town. They haven't been back for so long. We can't let everyone here starve, right? Now that we have the warehouse location, do we still need to go out and risk searching for supplies?"
Those who supported Liu Tianyu and had long been dissatisfied with Zhao Chuan and his group all fantasized about occupying the warehouse and having no worries about food and drink.
They were incited and immediately started shouting along.
"Yeah, they're all dead. How can you guys possibly guard the warehouse? Why don't you just hand over the address so we can all have a meal together."
"That's right."
Aside.
The two intellectual couples stood there. Their good upbringing prevented them from cursing in public. Their faces turned red with anger, and their hearts were filled with pain and despair.
If it wasn't for finding a special medicine for his sister, Zhao Chuan would not have sneaked out alone. After discovering that Zhao Chuan was missing and receiving a message for help, the other childhood friends discussed it and decided to run out with him.
There has been no news since then.
Zhao Chuan's parents always felt that it was their family that killed the other three children, but the parents of these three families always stood with them.
I never blamed or took my anger out on them.
Just when the couple was thinking about telling others the location of the warehouse in exchange for their safety, a gust of wind blew, bringing a familiar voice.
"Mom and Dad, I'm Zhao Chuan... the gathering place."
Everyone present heard it clearly, and everyone knew that this was Zhao Chuan's unique ability, and no one could imitate it. For a moment, everyone's expressions became different.
Zhao Chuan and his wife were so overjoyed that they wiped away their tears repeatedly.
The families of the other three people were also very surprised and finally put their minds at ease, except for Liu Tianyu sitting opposite them.
He originally thought that Zhao Chuan and the others were dead, so he wanted to take the opportunity to force this group of people to tell him the location of the warehouse, and then take the opportunity to drive them all out.
Who would have thought that these four people would return safely.
Someone came forward and whispered, "Master Liu, if it really doesn't work, why don't we take those four people first...?"
It took these four people so long to come back, they must have suffered serious injuries.
Liu Tianyu was quickly tempted and immediately sent people he trusted out to set traps, equipped with weapons and everything else.
To ensure the killing of these four.
Liu Tianyu thought about it and decided to do it himself.
He is a power-type mutant, many times stronger than an ordinary person, and can blow up a wall with one punch.
It is precisely because of this.
He thought he could become the person with the most say in the small base, and everyone would be looking at his face, just like the two small groups in the town. Just thinking about it made him feel so powerful.
But Zhao Chuan's special ability is indeed more beneficial to ordinary people. It allows them to receive orders in seconds and make reasonable choices as quickly as possible, thus reducing everyone's mortality rate.
There is still an hour and a half until eight o'clock.
There were many people standing on the outer wall of the small gathering place, all waiting for Zhao Chuan to come back. Even those who stood on Liu Tianyu's side were sincerely happy that Zhao Chuan could come back.
It's very simple.
Zhao Chuan and others will help maintain public order in small settlements and avoid conflicts caused by friction.
In the noisy environment, Pang Yongtie suddenly frowned: "Something is wrong."
He turned around and whispered something to someone, then waited anxiously for a long time. About five minutes later, the other person came running over breathlessly: "They're not here. The cars are gone."
Pang Yongtie was furious at that time.
really.
The other party is most likely bringing people to get rid of Zhao Chuan and the others outside. Anyway, the four families all know the location of the warehouse, and they will always find a gap and dig out the address.
After hearing what Pang Yongtie said, the other parents were anxious and angry. "Let's go and stop them. It's better to bring others with us to witness what Liu Tianyu is."
The small base has not been divided up by other teams until today. Isn't it because everyone sticks to the bottom line of never killing their own people that they have been able to stick together and defend it until now?
A person who thinks about killing his own people will one day stab his close confidants with a knife. What then?
Most of the zombies around the small base have been cleared out.
As long as you don't encounter more than three or five zombies, two or three people can work together to kill the zombies.
After Pang Yongtie spoke this out loud, it quickly caused panic and disbelief among most people, but how to explain the disappearance of the car in the base and Liu Tianyu?
No one wants to be abandoned and killed.
Some young people or men with fighting skills responded to Pang Yongtie's request to go and check out the situation together, while the rest of the people decided to stay in the base.
soon.
In the darkness of the night, a group of people came out in a mighty manner.
At this moment, Liu Tianyu was leading thirty people to the only way back to the base. He placed obstacles that could puncture tires and had many people lie in ambush, waiting to shoot at the car with guns.
Another small team with thirty people came up from behind and prepared to stop the car.
Inside the car.
Zhao Chuan was completely unaware of this, and looked a little worried: "I don't know how my sister is doing."
His younger sister suffers from a special disease and must take a specific medicine to suppress the condition, but all the pharmacies in the town have been cleared out and he cannot exchange the supplies for the medicine.
I had no choice but to go to the city.
Bai Yuan suddenly opened his eyes and said in a mechanical and cold voice: "Stop the car."
Chen Jieqing's feet moved before his brain and he stepped on the brakes. The car stopped abruptly and everyone was thrown forward by inertia, except Bai Yuan, who remained firmly sitting in the car.
The three of them were used to seeing Bai Yuan being able to handle all kinds of big situations with ease, so when they saw him shouting "Stop" for the first time, they became nervous unconsciously.
Is something terrible going to happen?
Although Zhao Chuan's physical strength was not as good as that of his childhood friends, he was still much stronger than ordinary people. He bent down and picked up the weapons he had prepared long ago and distributed them to the two of them: "We'll act according to the situation later."
The two of them swallowed.
At the same time.
Liu Tianyu and his group in front noticed a Hummer driving slowly and immediately realized that Zhao Chuan was in the car. Their expressions suddenly became distorted and excited.
Just when the car was about to reach the place where the obstacle was set up, it suddenly stopped and then there was no movement anymore.
Some people were suspicious: "Did they find a trap?"
Liu Tianyu grinned: "If that's the case, then just go for it. We have more than 30 people here, can't we beat four people? Don't forget, Zhao Chuan's ability can't help at all."
This greatly boosted the morale, and they immediately surrounded them quietly.
Then we met another small group of people with the same plan in the bushes.
In the dark night, all they could see were each other's strange and astonished faces.
The next moment.
Gunshots suddenly rang out, and no one knew who fired the gun. This indirectly caused everyone around to stand up, some with guns and various weapons, and the momentum of both sides suddenly became tense.
When the leaders of both sides stood up, they all showed expressions of astonishment.
“Is that you?”
"It's you."
Originally, the relationship between the two sides was not very good, especially this small team had been thinking about annexing the small base, which resulted in many people being abducted. However, due to the powerful strength of the leader of the small team, they could only take back some supplies as compensation.
But no one dared to eat this meat.
They had all heard that this small group was cannibalistic.
The group of people brought by Pang Yongtie also hurried over. They saw two teams occupying each side, and then they looked at the car sandwiched in the middle, which was obviously regarded as prey by both sides.
Everyone became horrified and extremely angry.
Inside the car.
Chen Hao and Chen Jieqing silently put down their weapons, and their expressions changed from panic to calm.
"That's it?"
There are only more than ninety people, including a few people with special abilities.
How could they be as shocked as when they witnessed with their own eyes various small zombie waves being easily dealt with, including the second-level zombies that could not withstand the boss's three-second attack and exploded their crystal cores with hatred.
They suddenly realized what Zhao Chuan had said before.
Damn, that's so true.
They really couldn't help but feel happy and proud that they could join the zombie boss' team.
In this life, I will just work for the boss!
