That afternoon, Chi Yanhuai received an urgent report from the Anyang base. "What happened?" he asked.
"Someone from our base went out on a mission and brought back news that three mutant zombies with special abilities appeared in the food factory. Their strength should not be underestimated. Only one of those people survived."
The man on the other side paused for a moment before continuing, "Not only was his arm bitten off, but he also had wounds of varying severity all over his body. We're requesting support from our superiors."
Chi Yanhuai was the heir of the Nanyang base, so naturally he had to deal with this matter. He looked solemn and said, "I'll go back right away." Chi Yanhuai found Lu Sikai and briefly told him what had happened.
Lu Sikai didn't say much. He was also from the Nanyang base, so he wouldn't refuse if he needed help. He just said, "Then go say goodbye to An An first."
Chi Yanhuai had no objection. When Tang Anan heard that something had happened at the Nanyang base and they were going back, Tang Anan thought about it for a while.
"Let me go back with you. I can't just stand by and watch if something happens to you, right? It's a good opportunity to meet an old friend." Speaking of old friends, Tang Anan lowered her eyes.
"Okay, and I believe they will be very happy to see you." Chi Yanhuai said. Those people in the base would probably be very happy to see her.
Tang Anan looked up at Chi Yanhuai and smiled sweetly at him.
Lu Sikai raised his eyebrows and said, "When you encounter difficult situations in the future, don't be stubborn and do your best."
Tang Anan glanced at him and replied, "I see."
After that, he gave Chen Ruolan some instructions and went to the Nanyang base with Chi Yanhuai.
When Tang Anan walked into the Nanyang base, some people were still unaware of the situation when they saw her. Later they realized that she was still alive. This made everyone happy but also a little resentful of her for leaving without saying goodbye.
Tang Anan laughed twice and said, "I won't do that again."
Chi Yanduo's face was stern, but one could still see from his eyes that he was happy. He asked, "How have you been these years?"
Tang Anan answered briefly: "It's okay. I built a base after clearing the wasteland, rescued some talents, and went on a few missions from time to time. It became quite easy after it developed." But everyone knew that it was just easy, and no one could explain the difficulties involved.
Ling Qiuyuan reached out and hugged Tang Anan. She was gentle and considerate, and her soft voice whispered in her ear, asking about her well-being: "Thank you for your hard work before. If you have any problems that cannot be solved in the future, you can come to us."
Tang Anan naturally responded happily.
Chi Yanduo then said to Tang Anan, "Aren't you going on a mission? This person should go with you."
Chi Yanduo knew that they were going on a mission long before they came back, and he signaled the man with his eyes.
Of course, with Chi Yanduo's ability, he didn't necessarily want them to deal with those mutated zombies. He mainly wanted to train Chi Yanhuai.
Although the man's appearance was not as good-looking as Lu Sikai and others, he was still attractive, and his light brown hair was particularly eye-catching. He stood up and called out to Tang Anan: "Anan."
Tang Anan recognized him as Gao Liang, a wind-type mutant who had been rescued by her and brought back to the Nanyang base.
Tang Anan said: "It's you, long time no see." Tang Anan suddenly realized.
Gao Liang replied: "Yes, you have to be careful this time. You might have to save me again."
Tang Anan raised an eyebrow and said, "What if I fail to save her?"
Gao Liang spread his hands and said, "If you hadn't saved me, I'd probably be dead."
Tang Anan laughed, looking at him with clear black eyes: "I haven't seen you for ten years, and you're still the same."
After the reunion, several people gathered together to learn about the situation of the food factory.
This large food factory has a lot of supplies, and it is a nearby supply point, so many people go there to look for supplies. However, the appearance of three mutant zombies with special powers quickly reduced the number of people. Those who managed to escape were basically injured, and no one dared to approach again unless the zombies were killed by someone.
After understanding the situation, the group set out and soon arrived at the food factory.
The street, which was bustling with traffic in the afternoon, is now in ruins and in a mess. All kinds of cars are jammed in the street. Some cars have crashed into lampposts, and others have rushed into shops on the street.
"Everyone be careful." Chi Yanhuai said.
A zombie that was gnawing on a human corpse raised its head. The sunlight made its face look pale. It had a pair of lifeless eyes, a half-broken nose, and a bloody mouth.
Tang Anan immediately strangled the low-level zombie with the golden thread, and it fell to the ground helplessly. Chi Yanhuai led the charge, looking around, paying attention to potential dangers. The others followed behind him, also paying attention to their surroundings.
In these last days, any carelessness may result in loss of life.
The mutant zombie with special abilities who was feasting on the meal seemed to sense their presence. It suddenly raised its head and looked at them with a pair of eyes filled with whites, its face covered in sticky blood.
A big mouth that was almost pulled to the back of the cheek, with a small piece of uneaten intestine hanging on the teeth that were bared out, and a few drops of blood still dripping from the intestine.
The white vest was covered in blood plasma, and only the shoulder straps showed its original white color.
The zombie was more than two meters tall. It slowly stood up, growling like a phlegm stuck in its throat, staring at the people with its gray eyes like the belly of a dead fish, and stretched out its blood-stained hands, suddenly running towards them.
Zombies' eyes are no different from humans' except for the color, but when visual signals are transmitted to the brain, the brain will interpret these signals in a different way.
They can identify prey at a distance comparable to humans, but whether they can distinguish humans from their own kind is a matter of debate. One theory is that humans move more quickly and flexibly than zombies, allowing them to be identified by zombies.
Before the zombie pounced, several people quickly dodged. Chi Yanhuai stared at the zombie and said, "This is a mutated speed zombie. Gao Liang, use your ability to hold it back and slow it down."
Gao Liang didn't pause and immediately used his special ability - wind.
Chi Yanhuai called Lu Sikai again and said to him, "Pay attention to your surroundings. If two more zombies are about to appear, try to delay them."
If three zombies appeared at the same time and attacked them, they would not be able to defeat them. Lu Sikai said yes.
The mutant zombie did not suffer any substantial damage from Gao Liang's attack, it just slowed down its speed. This mutant zombie has a much higher ability to withstand attacks than ordinary zombies.
Although Tang Anan's golden thread could not immediately cut the zombie's neck, it could only restrain its steps while attacking.
