Chapter 212: Get close to that doomsday boss (19)
Li Ziyan recovered faster than Han Linxia had imagined. Although his face didn't look so good sometimes, he no longer felt disgusted when he saw the zombies again.
With first-hand information, Han Linxia and his team's strength soared, and they went on missions more frequently, but they did not show off too much. Every time they came back from a mission, they would deliberately make themselves and their teammates look dirty and embarrassed.
After the last attack, Han Linxia's feelings towards Li Ziyan became more and more complicated. It was not only out of concern for his team members as a leader, but also due to some inexplicable meanings.
But even so, Han Linxia still agreed to Li Ziyan's request to go on the mission. After all, he couldn't protect Li Ziyan for his whole life, and something unexpected might happen later. It would be better to let Li Ziyan live in a greenhouse and let him grow up enough to survive independently.
Li Ziyan did not disappoint him. Even though his body was often sore and bruised, he never complained of being tired or said he would give up. Because of his participation, Han Linxia and his team always took the majority of the supplies they collected, and they were not discovered by the royal city.
But these are only short-term situations. Those who can survive the apocalypse are not fools. Although Wang Cheng and his companions did not realize the problem so quickly, they also discovered clues during the mission.
"Boss, this zombie seems to be different from before." The military advisor next to Wang Cheng had a serious expression, without his previous flattery. If you look closely, you can see a hint of panic in his eyes.
"Need I tell you? I'm not blind," Wang Cheng said in a sullen tone. Lately, his own team has been suffering increasing casualties on missions, and the supplies they've brought back are dwindling. While Han Linxia and his team haven't suffered any casualties, the supplies they've brought back from each mission are no longer as good as they used to be. Such a situation wouldn't please anyone. "Hmph, this past month, supplies are dwindling, and the deaths are piling up. How can there be no problem?"
"Well, Boss, should we find a way to find out what's going on?"
"I asked you to ask Jin Peng in Cuiling Bay before. Have you done that?"
The military advisor nodded repeatedly, took out his phone from his chest pocket, and clicked on the message on it, "Boss, Boss Jin Peng said that the situation there is not good, but he has bought information from Hua Chong'ao, that is..."
"Just tell us what it is. It's just that you want us to exchange supplies for it, right?"
"Yes, Boss, you are wise."
Wang Cheng snorted coldly. He knew too well what these people did, taking advantage of others' misfortunes.
"Since he wants it, then give it to him. However, you need to find someone to take the brothers with you and come back only after you have personally reviewed the intelligence."
"I understand." The military advisor nodded, but wiped the sweat from his forehead, with a hint of resentment in his eyes.
The "business trip" now is not the same as before. There are zombies all along the way, and the situation is unknown now. It is not certain whether he can arrive there safely. What's more, Jin Peng is not an easy person to deal with. This trip may be full of dangers.
But he is now under Wang Cheng's command. If he doesn't listen to Wang Cheng, he will probably die a more miserable death. The military advisor held the phone and sighed.
Han Linxia didn't know that Wang Cheng and the others had already become suspicious, but they were not afraid. After all, they had been keeping a low profile during this period and their strength had greatly increased. The crystal cores they had collected were enough for them to upgrade, and they had not neglected their usual training. Everyone, including Li Ziyan, was on high alert and extremely vigilant.
"You've made great progress."
"It's the instructor's fault for teaching me well." Li Ziyan half-raised his head and looked at Han Linxia, with a glimmer in his eyes, not hiding the admiration in his eyes. "Instructor, I will continue to work hard."
"Yeah." Han Linxia responded, but avoided Li Ziyan's sight. The other's eyes were too hot, and he was afraid that he would not be able to control the uncontrollable feeling in his heart.
The two were still standing together, not noticing that there were no more people around them. The team members had gone to different places to practice, giving them some independent space.
Although the two of them have not confirmed their relationship, the magnetic field between the two is enough to make people see the unusual atmosphere between them.
Even the usually honest Chen Kuangyuan felt something was wrong and secretly asked Bai Jingzhe about the relationship between the two.
"Alas, he says one thing and means another. No one can escape the law of true fragrance. Tsk tsk tsk." Bai Jingzhe sighed while shaking his head, attracting the attention of Chen Kuangyuan beside him.
"What are you talking about? Who smells really good?"
Bai Jingzhe turned around to look at Chen Kuangyuan, who was still confused, and reached out to pat Chen Kuangyuan on the shoulder. "Alas, sometimes, being stupid is a good thing."
"Who are you calling stupid?!" Chen Kuangyuan slapped nothing and chased Bai Jingzhe in the yard.
Li Ziyan and Han Linxia naturally noticed their voices, took a look and then looked away.
Han Linxia glanced down at Li Ziyan's red cheeks and felt a little happy in her heart.
"Let's go, let's go eat."
"Um!"
They were all happy and relaxed, but the people in the royal city were in a gloomy mood. A week later, the military advisor came back from Jin Peng and brought back the information they needed. More than a dozen brothers were killed along the way. If the military advisor had not hidden himself, they would probably have been killed as well.
"You've worked hard. Have a good rest and pick a girl to play with you." Wang Cheng laughed, patted the military advisor's shoulder, and asked someone to bring out the beauty he found.
The military advisor breathed a sigh of relief, a hint of joy in his eyes, "Thank you, sir. This is my duty."
As he spoke, he rubbed his hands, walked over to a plump beauty, and put his arms around her waist.
Wang Cheng waved his hand with a lewd smile, then picked up the information and read it.
The more he looked, the deeper his frown became. If this information was true, then they would have to think of something.
"Come here, call over the captains."
"yes."
The little minion responded and was about to call for help when he was stopped by Wang Cheng again.
"Wait, have someone arrange a dinner and invite Captain Han over."
"clear."
The minions left, and Wang Cheng leaned back on the sofa with a gloomy expression.
He originally wanted to kill Han Linxia, but he didn't expect Han Linxia to be so lucky that he survived until now despite the lack of supplies.
But it's better not to die, because if he doesn't die, he can serve him better. Wang Cheng raised the corner of his mouth in an arc, which was gloomy and terrifying, full of calculation and malice towards Han Linxia.
He glanced at the information in his hand, put the document on the table, and raised his hand to touch his chin.
Jin Peng's intelligence mentioned space-related abilities, which were not found in his team, but... there might be something wrong with Han Linxia who was still alive.
