"Xiaoxue, take me with you! I promise I won't cause you any trouble, really!" Chen Tang begged.
Seeing that Li Xue had no intention of agreeing, he rolled his eyes and said with a wicked smile: "If you don't take me with you, I will just wander around outside. If I'm lucky, I'll go back to the base and tell you that you saw me in trouble and didn't help me! If I'm unlucky, then you don't have to worry, I won't go back in this life."
Li Xue looked at Chen Tang, who looked shameless, speechlessly. Was she threatened?
In the end, Li Xue still opened the car door and let Chen Tang get in. She was not afraid that Chen Tang would go back to the base and say something about them not helping him, but she was afraid that this guy would really make her die.
After spending so many days together, her impression of Chen Tang had long changed from a slick-talking second-generation official to a friend she could make friends with. If he really encountered an accident, she would definitely feel guilty. Since he insisted on coming, then let him go. It would always be more reassuring to keep him under her nose.
Chen Tang jumped into the car happily and sat in the passenger seat. Mu Mu sat in the back seat and squeezed together with the two children.
The car continued to move forward.
The distance between Q City and H Base is about the same as that between W City and Q City, but in the opposite direction, Q City is in the east and W City is in the west.
However, the situation of Q City before the end of the world cannot be compared with that of W City. W City has a well-developed industrial level and a large population, while Q City is mainly agricultural, with an average economic level, an area of only half that of W City, and a population of less than one-third of that of W City.
Because of its agricultural industry, Q City became the first choice for H Base to collect supplies after the end of the world. The zombies here have been almost wiped out.
But recently, a mercenary team encountered a high-level superpowered zombie while collecting supplies here. They fought desperately, but ended up being annihilated. The one who brought back the news was a mutant who escaped from the mercenary team.
According to the mutant who escaped, the superpower level of the zombie was equivalent to that of a human level 5 superpowered person.
However, the superpowers of zombies are much more powerful than those of humans. In a confrontation of the same level of superpowers, humans have little chance of winning.
Li Xue's superpowers have reached the peak of level six, and she has no pressure at all against level five zombies, so she accepted the mission without thinking.
Since she had never revealed her superpower level to the people at the base, when she accepted the mission, the staff at the mission registration office tactfully advised her to give up the mission. Li Xue couldn't help laughing when she thought of the tangled and regretful expression on the registrar's face when she saw that she was determined to accept the mission.
After two days of non-stop travel, they entered Q City on the morning of the third day.
Li Xue had already figured out the map of Q City, so she drove the car directly to the area where the high-level zombies were found.
A group of eight people and a dog all got out of the car. Lin Miao waved her hand and loaded both cars into the space. Li Xue tied Haohao to her chest with a sling.
A group of people walked towards the area with their hands rubbing. This was their first mission after their superpowers were upgraded, so they couldn't wait to find the high-level zombie to verify how much stronger their superpowers had become after the upgrade.
As soon as they stepped into the area mentioned by the mutant, Li Xue realized that they were being targeted!
"Be alert, we have entered the zombie's territory." Li Xue calmly released his sub-mental power to the surroundings to explore the surrounding situation.
The inspiration for using mental power to explore came from when she was in W City, using the ice cat to collect crystal cores. After returning to the base, after several practices, she was able to control it very accurately. After checking for a long time, she didn't find anything unusual. However, her intuition has never been wrong, so she dared not relax for a moment.
When the other people heard what Li Xue said, they immediately paid more attention to the situation around them. Their formation also turned into a circle, automatically protecting Chen Tang in the middle.
Mu Mu also raised his ears and listened carefully to the movements around him. His hearing was very strong. As long as there was a slight movement around, it would not escape his ears.
"How is it? Did you find anything?" Seeing that everyone kept the same action for a long time and there was no movement around, Lin Miao couldn't help but ask.
"No, we didn't find it." Li Xue frowned.
At this moment, the feeling of being watched disappeared.
"Strange, why did the zombie suddenly disappear?" Li Xue was a little confused.
"Disappeared?" Everyone was a little unconvinced. How could a zombie abandon them, such a living person.
"I can't tell what's going on? But the feeling of being watched is indeed gone." Li Xue couldn't tell what was going on with the zombie.
"Then what should we do now?" Chen Tang squeezed out from the middle. He was really moved by their protection, but being surrounded in the middle was too hot for him to bear.
"Keep going forward, I think the zombie must be waiting for us somewhere. Everyone must be careful, follow closely, and don't fall behind." Li Xue instructed a few people, then took the lead and walked forward, with Guo Qing walking at the end.
After walking for about ten minutes, Li Xue suddenly raised her hand: "Be alert, zombies have appeared."
Several people quickly formed a circle and surrounded Chen Tang again.
Mu Mu also noticed the abnormality and began to stomp his feet in place, roaring at the surroundings in his throat.
This time, the feeling of being stared at was even stronger, and Li Xue released his mental power again. This time, the mental power finally captured the information of the zombies, but Li Xue's face changed: "Oh no, the intelligence is wrong, there are three high-level zombies!"
"What? What kind of plane are the people in the base doing? They can get such a thing wrong? I'll go back and settle accounts with them, damn it! How many times has this happened?" Jian Hui couldn't help but curse. "
Okay, don't rush to curse, pay attention to your surroundings!" Li Xue's mental power never relaxed, her expression was a little solemn, three high-level zombies, now they don't know what level those zombies are, it's really too tricky.
Suddenly, a burst of brisk footsteps came, and the figures of three high-level zombies appeared from three directions at the same time.
"Are they really zombies?" Hu Zi asked in surprise. The three zombies had no zombie features at all. They looked no different from humans. They were all neatly dressed and even looked more energetic than some ordinary people in the H base, except that their faces were a little dark blue.
Suddenly a zombie roared at them, and on the face that just looked no different from an ordinary person, a big mouth strangely occupied half of the entire face, and the mouth full of sharp fangs was exposed.
"This is what a zombie looks like!" Hu Zi muttered.
Everyone: ...Brother, this is not the time to discuss the appearance of zombies!
