Chapter 189 An Unexpected Incident at the Base! [56]
Chen Wang truly couldn't stand A Chu's coquettishness.
A Chu's sweet talk is enough to make me want to give my life for her!
How could Chen Wang possibly utter the words of refusal?
In the end, he nodded in agreement.
"Okay, but you can't leave my sight."
Achu's face immediately lit up with a bright smile: "Okay!"
On the sofa behind, Lin Xiangheng whispered to the teammate next to him, "I told you, the boss definitely couldn't refuse Mianmian."
"Sigh, our boss has no authority at all in front of his wife."
"Haha, what's the point of having any authority when you have a wife!"
"That's true, hehehe!"
Chen Wang turned around, his gentle smile vanishing as he faced A Chu: "Get ready, let's go."
The team members, who had just been joking around, immediately stood up and replied in unison, "Yes!"
The others also got up one after another.
Chen Wang did not have all the team members follow, but instead divided them into two groups.
One batch in the morning, and another batch in the afternoon.
That way it won't be too tiring.
Achu went out with Chenwang.
The SUV came out through the third door.
Ah Chu looked out the car window.
This is what is known as a slum, with corrugated iron shacks everywhere on both sides of the road.
Passing through the second gate, you'll see even more rudimentary tents and a worse environment.
It's hard to imagine how the people living here have survived the recent sudden changes in temperature.
Lin Xiangheng was driving today, and Wen Lulu was in the passenger seat.
Achu and Shen Wang were sitting in the back row.
Outside the car window, they saw a thin man dragging an equally thin woman out.
The woman was clearly dead.
Not only that, but several corpses were also placed on the roadside, left naked outside.
These people either died from the cold yesterday, or they died from illness caused by the sudden change in temperature.
Actually, it's not just recently that people have died.
People die here every day, but recently more have been dying.
The base has limited resources.
Therefore, when a person dies, they can only be placed in one place and wait for the base to collect them and then incinerate them.
Seeing this, Wen Lulu's eyes showed pity and helplessness.
"Life is hard enough, and now God has to torment us with unpredictable weather."
Ah Chu sighed as well: "Yes!"
Lin Xiangheng: "If zombies are not a threat, then the survival of ordinary people should be easier."
Even with abnormal weather, resilient humans can always find a way to survive.
Achu placed her hand on Little Grey's chin and scratched it: "This day will definitely come."
The car stopped at the city wall inside the first gate.
Ah Chu carried Little Grey out of the car and followed Chen Wang up the city wall.
Looking down from the city wall, one could see that a large number of zombies had already gathered outside.
The city wall was very high, but the zombies were actually trying to climb up by stepping on each other's shoulders.
Although it's still far from perfect, letting things continue like this is definitely not an option.
Shen Wang sent his team out to kill zombies, while he stayed up there using his supernatural abilities to assist them.
Little Grey was also very excited and followed them out.
The members of Anran's team are even more motivated because they don't have to hand over the crystal cores they get from killing zombies today.
They quickly cleared out the area.
Base staff will use forklifts to clear away the zombies outside to prevent them from piling up.
Achu stood beside Shen Wang the whole time, fanning herself with a small fan.
Yesterday was bitterly cold, today is muggy.
It felt like the air was thin and there was a lingering, rotten smell that just wouldn't go away.
While the team members were resting, Chen Wang turned his head and looked down at A Chu, coaxing her, "There's nothing wrong here, why don't you go back first?"
Achu shook her head: "No, I want to stay with you!"
Chen Wang felt helpless yet sweet inside. He tapped A Chu's nose and asked, "Are you a clingy person?"
Achu hugged his arm and rubbed against him, saying, "Yes~ I'm Chenwang-gege's clingy little devil~"
Shen Wang couldn't suppress the smile on his face.
.
Just like yesterday, no more zombies came to the base when it got dark.
Achu went back with Chenwang and the others.
Today they don't have to hand over their crystal cores, so they've had a very fruitful day.
After Shen Wang returned, he had Lin Xiangheng divide up the crystal cores.
Once everyone received the crystal nucleus, some absorbed it, and some stored it away.
After a long day, they washed up and went to bed after dinner.
Today seems to be relatively calm.
But in the slums where no one paid attention, a strange change suddenly occurred.
An ordinary person with a serious illness suddenly convulsed, his skin turned blue, and his blood vessels rapidly turned black and bulged into a terrifying shape.
Before his family members could react, the man had already turned into a zombie and bit the family members who came over to check on him.
The zombie virus can spread very quickly in the body of an ordinary person.
Human vision is much weaker in the dark, while zombies have excellent hearing.
Almost without giving anyone a chance to react, they were bitten by a zombie and then infected, turning into a zombie themselves.
One tells ten, ten tell a hundred...
The same thing happened in the tin-roofed housing area.
The base was patrolled, but by the time the patrols discovered it, the tent area and the tin-roofed house area had already fallen.
At two o'clock in the morning, the piercing alarm in the base shattered the night sky, waking people from their sleep.
When Achu was awakened by the alarm, she also heard Little Grey's barking coming from outside the door.
They were probably startled by the alarm.
Achu threw off the covers and left the room without even putting on her shoes.
Su Yiyue also came out of the next room.
The two sisters looked at each other.
"Sister, what's going on outside?"
Su Yiyue's expression was grave: "Someone in the base has been infected with the zombie virus!"
The last time the alarm sounded at the base was after the black rain when someone developed a fever and turned into a zombie.
Achu: "Then I'll go out and see if there's anything I can do to help!"
Su Yiyue: "I'll go with you!"
Although she spent every day in the research institute, she did not neglect her ice-type superpowers.
The two sisters changed their clothes, grabbed flashlights, and went out.
As soon as they went out, they saw Chen Wang and his group coming out from the opposite side.
Shen Wang spotted A Chu at a glance and quickly walked over.
"Why did you come out? I don't know what's going on outside. You should stay at home."
Achu shook her head: "My sister and I are going to see if there's anything we can do to help!"
Chen Wang looked at Su Yiyue, seemingly surprised that she hadn't advised A Chu to stay at home.
Su Yiyue: "Only with the base intact can we truly be safe."
Shen Wang said nothing more and let A Chu and Su Yiyue get into his car and leave.
On the way, they also received news and learned what had happened.
They arrived at the third gate of the base.
The city walls here are not as high, wide, or sturdy as the first gate.
The area outside the third gate, consisting of tin shacks and tents, has been completely overrun.
The base commander ordered the use of firepower to suppress the zombies, but there were too many zombies and the gunpowder was limited, so the ability users still needed to kill the zombies.
Anran's team and other superhumans from the base quickly joined the battle.
Achu wanted to help, but Chenwang made her stand on the city wall.
"Only when you're here can I concentrate on killing zombies."
Ah Chu originally wanted to persist, but she noticed Song Jiahe out of the corner of her eye.
She hadn't seen Song Jiahe for a long time and had almost forgotten about the female lead.
Ah Chu noticed that Song Jiahe's gaze was a little strange...
