The construction method of the Shelter of Light is that it surrounds the five-story building in the center, and there are three-story shops of various sizes surrounding it. The shape is radial with the center as the point, and there are four entrances and exits in total.
On the top floor of each entrance and exit, there is a gatekeeper who overlooks the view. Only with his signal can the door below be opened.
"The Light Team is back!"
Only when the group approached did the gatekeeper start to shout, and his joy did not seem fake.
This made He Zheng and his group even more confused. How could this guy be so blind that he only saw them now?
With doubts in mind, after a routine check, they finally entered the Sanctuary of Light.
There were two gatekeepers on the top floor, and the psychic who had just happily reported came down quickly to greet them.
"You guys are finally back. The higher-ups said there was a thunderstorm so you might be late!"
The man had a smile on his face and didn't notice the depressing atmosphere of the team at all. He even found a psychic he was familiar with to ask about what happened during the mission.
"Liu Yin, why are you silent? Is the mission not going well?"
"Stay away from me."
The female supernatural being named Liu Yin pushed away his hand that was about to touch her shoulder, with impatience written all over her face.
"You are so indifferent, is there something wrong with the mission?"
His mood took a sharp turn for the worse, and he was confused for a moment when he looked at Liu Yin's cold face.
Normally, the two of them had a good relationship, and he didn't understand why they became so cold after a mission.
He Zheng didn't want to waste time, so he called out his name directly, "You come with us."
The gatekeeper with special abilities was a little confused, but he nodded and followed the group of people.
Only then did he realize something was wrong, and he quietly asked Liu Yin, "Didn't you guys go out by car? Why did you come back just waving your hands?"
"Did we encounter a strange beast?!"
I have to say that this guy is not only talkative, but also has a great imagination.
Lin Xingyou, who was walking in front, saw the gatekeeper still hesitating behind him, so he stopped, turned around and pointed.
"You, come here."
"Me?" The gatekeeper pointed at himself.
"Come here." The woman's face suddenly turned cold, and her face was full of impatience.
"well."
Although he had never met him, he felt that this person was not someone he would be easy to mess with.
When the person came to him, Lin Xingyou asked directly: "Didn't you notice any unusual movement outside the shelter just now?"
"No."
The gatekeeper looked calm and puzzled as to why she asked.
"You really didn't find anything?" Liu Yin couldn't help but ask.
"Really not." The gatekeeper was annoyed by the question. "There are two of us on duty together. Even if I am distracted, the other one should be able to find something wrong."
Everyone was silent.
The commotion outside just now could definitely be heard back in the shelter, especially the fire dragon and sword rain that Lin Xingyou released at the end, which was extremely powerful.
After the apocalypse, the world declined and the once noisy urban areas became quiet, not to mention remote places like the Sanctuary of Light.
The thunderstorm in the sky has temporarily stopped now, so it is impossible that no sound can be heard.
"What's going on?"
Liu Yin finally turned his gaze to He Zheng. From the moment they arrived at the edge of the shelter, everything seemed weird.
"Go report the mission progress first."
He Zheng had a serious look on his face, and if you looked closely at his face, he looked a bit fierce and someone who was not easy to mess with.
They met many people along the way, but they just greeted them quickly and then rushed towards the command center.
Along the way, Lin Xingyou also got to know the living conditions in the Shelter of Light. The outer shops were inhabited by low- and middle-level psychics, as well as their own families. The level of harmony was much better than that in the Shelter of Hope.
At least ordinary people could live in the shelter, but of course she had no idea of their value.
It's the end of the world. It's so difficult to survive. If there is no value, no one will be so kind as to take in useless people.
As for the building in the middle, it is the core of the Shelter of Light, where the senior executives work and live.
He Zheng took a few core team members and Lin Xingyou to the conference room. When they learned that He Zheng had returned, He's father was already waiting.
"You're back. How was the mission?"
As soon as Lin Xingyou entered the room, he saw Mr. He, who was in his fifties, sitting at the top of the table. His face was serious, but he smiled with relief when he saw that He Zheng was fine.
Before the end of the world, He's father was an executive in a large company. He maintained a good figure, and although there were traces of time on his face, the shrewdness and wisdom in his eyes were clearly visible.
Even though he was worried about the bumpy road his son would encounter, he never forgot his important work.
"Everything went well." He Zheng suddenly turned sideways and raised his hand to introduce Lin Xingyou: "She is the Boss Lin Xingyou I mentioned before."
Hearing this, Father He's face lit up with joy and he stood up and walked to Lin Xingyou, "Nice to meet you, nice to meet you. I've heard Xiao Zheng mention Boss Lin before."
As he said this, he did not forget to give He Zheng a look that said "well done, kid".
Lin Xingyou: Okay, now I’m sure they are father and son.
"Dad, has there been any activity at the shelter these past two days?"
When facing his own father, He Zheng did not care about the old man's face at all and spoke without reservation.
Father He gave him a sharp look, recalled the information handed over, and answered neatly, "No, your little sister just checked the surrounding area after you left."
"Nothing?" He frowned.
"No, hey, why did you come back so soon this time?"
At this point, He's father realized that his son came back too quickly, and couldn't help feeling a little confused.
Then He Zheng told his father what happened after he got out, including the sneak attack they were faced with outside the shelter.
And none of the gatekeepers noticed their plight, and there was no one to support them at such a close distance.
"There is such a thing!" He's father was shocked, with a complicated expression on his face.
"It's a thunderstorm today, and no one has gone out to patrol. Could it be the zombies that gathered here last night?"
No one responded. He's father knew it couldn't be that simple, so he waved his hand.
"I'll arrange it right away. The entire shelter will be put on alert."
After saying that, Father He thought again, "You just came back and you must be exhausted from the journey. Go and have a rest."
Everyone: ...
Actually, I just had a fight, so I’m not that tired.
"Dad, don't think too much. Just arrange things first. We are fine." He Zheng was sure that his father had forgotten how they got here.
After all, the brain is temporarily overloaded, so negligence is inevitable.
"as you like."
He's father was too lazy to argue with this kid. Zombies were the top priority right now.
"You and your son really look alike!" Lin Xingyou couldn't help but sigh.
Faced with Lin Xingyou's words, which were not sure whether they were sarcasm or praise, He Zheng shrugged helplessly.
After leaving the conference room and arriving on the first floor, Lin Xingyou suddenly heard a mechanical prompt sound in his mind.
[Ding——Meet the heroine He Jiaojiao and the hero Gu Sheng of "Riding the Zombie Sang Xitian"]
The mechanical sound startled Lin Xingyou so much that he forgot to walk for a moment.
"Brother, who is this? She's so pretty."
He Jiaojiao, who was coming towards her, saw Lin Xingyou in a daze, and her eyes were instantly filled with little stars.
Seeing his sister acting like a fangirl, He Zheng doted on Xiaoxiao, and he hasn't changed his behavior until now.
"This is Boss Lin, the future partner of the Shelter." He said bluntly.
"Hello, beautiful sister. My name is He Jiaojiao." The sweet-mouthed girl smiled, her chubby little face looking cute and adorable.
After Lin Xingyu came back to his senses, the first thing he saw was the lively girl. Her face was full of joy, and her big, round eyes looked straight at him.
This is the heroine of the zombie novel? !
In this world, he still has such a cheerful personality, it seems that he has suffered too little.
"Hello, my name is Lin Xingyou." Faced with such enthusiasm, she still appeared indifferent and distant.
"Who is this?"
Lin Xingyou shifted her gaze to the young man behind her. The man had a handsome and elegant appearance, with a face as white as jade. The young man's slender and straight body was like a pine tree standing proudly in the snow, giving a sense of being out of this world.
"Him, his name is Gu Sheng."
He Jiaojiao introduced normally, but Lin Xingyou never withdrew her inquiring gaze. Until she met those innocent and timid eyes, a smile suddenly appeared on her lips.
You’re so good at pretending!
From the brief look she had seen of the character, this male protagonist was an out-and-out zombie.
It seems that the sudden gathering of zombies outside has something to do with him.
"Where is he from? Why haven't I seen your brother before?"
After being besieged by zombies outside the door, He Zheng was still a little suspicious of a stranger he had never seen before.
If there were such people in the Light Shelter, he would be impressed.
