As night deepened, spotlights illuminated the area near the gate of District 1, where the bloodshot eyes of the third-class residents lurked in the darkness.
Bai Jingkong knew that killing everyone wouldn't solve anything, so he stood on the city wall and shouted, "Everyone, calm down! The base has supplies now. If you retreat, we can talk!"
Some of the more timid third-class residents in the darkness were tempted, but some of the bolder ones shouted back, "Bullshit! Bai Jingkong, do you think we'll still believe you? You even slept with your own sister-in-law, what else wouldn't you do? You've already secretly moved the base's supplies! We can't trust him!"
Another voice loudly echoed, "That's right, going back is a dead end for us! Brothers, don't believe him."
The words of these two people immediately brought the residents of the other three districts to their senses. Indeed, they now had nowhere to retreat.
Even if Bai Jingkong was stupid, she could sense that something was wrong, but the rioters couldn't wait any longer.
With a roar, a man rushed out of the darkness and knocked over the guards who didn't have time to fire.
Peng!
A guard, on edge, shot and killed the third-class citizen who rushed out, thus extinguishing the last possibility of peace talks between the two sides.
The conflict between the two sides has broken out again.
The thousands of third-class citizens quickly wiped out half of Bai Jingkong's men, leaving him with no choice but to order a retreat.
The third-class citizens who rushed in immediately ran into the nearby villas, and gradually, they were completely out of control.
The total number of guards and superpowered teams is only about one hundred. Guo Wei, who has just been promoted to captain of the guards, asked anxiously, "Jing Kong, what do we do? We can't hold on any longer. There are too many of them!"
Bai Jingkong made a decisive decision: "I'll go back to find Rui'er and take all the goods from the warehouse. I'll drive over to pick you up in a bit. Uncle Guo, our future depends entirely on you. You must hold on for me and stop them for as long as you can!"
Before Guo Wei could refute her, Bai Jingkong turned and left.
Guo Wei cursed inwardly, but had no choice. He punched a mob that lunged at him, sending it flying, and roared, "Defend K Base! Leave no survivors among the mob!"
Guo Wei ordered the guards and the superhuman squad, who had already run out of ammunition, to use their superpowers to deal with the rioters, and they managed to repel a portion of them for a while.
Although Guo Wei shouted bravely, he was actually quite nervous. He was worried that Bai Jingkong would abandon them, but he was also worried that if this mob got to the warehouse, the goods they had just received from the seven bases would be wasted.
So he fought and retreated at the same time. When his men were unknowingly surrounded by the mob, Guo Wei also ran away.
With both commanders gone, the counterattack, which had just begun to gain momentum, quickly collapsed. The remaining guards and members of the superpowered squad fled in all directions. Thousands of third-class citizens rushed into District 1 and began looting, vandalizing, and burning. They stormed into villas, only to find that the owners had already fled. After eating all the food, they were still not satisfied. They set fire to the curtains and burned everything in sight, venting their anger.
No one noticed that the few people who initially incited the third-class citizens had disappeared during the chaos.
Just as Guo Wei worried.
After Bai Jingkong left, he didn't go looking for Guo Ruier at all; he just used Guo Wei to buy time.
He stole a modified car and headed straight for the warehouse, intending to take all the goods. However, when Bai Jingkong arrived at the warehouse, he was completely dumbfounded.
The warehouse, which was once packed full, was now nothing but dust! The guards stationed there were all dead.
Someone moved all the goods away.
Bai Jingkong's face turned ashen. He immediately started the car and chased after the east gate of the base. The first possibility that came to his mind was that the goods had been taken away by people from the other four bases, since they were the only ones with manpower and cargo transport capabilities.
And they ran away right after the riot at K base, which is too much of a coincidence.
Anger and impatience completely snapped the thread of reason in Bai Jingkong's mind.
When he arrived near the East Gate, the area was in complete chaos, so he had to abandon the car and walk. Along the way, some first-class citizens from K Base recognized Bai Jingkong and surrounded him.
"Lord, has the riot been dealt with?"
"Lord, what should we do?"
"Lord, we've provided so many supplies to the base, but where are the guards? We need to protect them!"
More and more first-class citizens who couldn't live without him gathered around. Bai Jingkong was already on the verge of exploding with rage. Finally, when a burly man blocked him, he punched him and sent him flying.
"Get out if you don't want to die!"
Having scared off the group of "parasites," Bai Jingkong rushed to a truck at the rear of a base convoy and forcibly opened the cargo hold before the other party could react. However, there was only "healing water" inside, and no other goods. Bai Jingkong's face turned even more grim.
At this moment, the people at Base H, whose cargo boxes had been opened, reacted a beat too late. Just as they were about to shout angrily, a scream suddenly came from the crowd in front of them, and more and more people ran from the direction of the door back the way they came.
"Zombies are coming! Zombies are coming!"
The continuous noises and the stench of blood at K Base attracted more and more zombies, which rushed into the base through the broken-open east gate.
Bai Jingkong calmed down at this moment. As he watched one first-class citizen after another being pounced on by zombies, he increasingly felt that the series of events from the riot of third-class residents to the appearance of zombies was too coincidental.
And there was also a sense of déjà vu.
Just as he was about to grasp some idea, a third-tier strength-type zombie suddenly pounced out from the shadows, its target being Bai Jingkong.
