A zombie horde, as the name suggests, is a group of thousands upon thousands of zombies. Although most of them are first or second-tier zombies, their numbers are large and the area covered is vast. Even Bai Jingkong, who is already at the third tier, is terrified by them.
He immediately ordered, "Retreat! Quickly, retreat!"
However, an even more terrifying message came through the walkie-talkie from the convoy behind: "Lord, something terrible has happened! A fifth-tier corrosive zombie has arrived! Ah!!"
As dusk approached, the setting sun shone like blood.
A fierce battle broke out on the plains more than 100 kilometers away from the new base. Bai Jingkong ordered an attack, but unfortunately only two of the six vehicles managed to get out and were quickly entangled by fifth-level zombies.
Bai Jingkong's arm was corroded. He stood on the roof of the car and punched the zombie's head, but the difference in level was too great. Instead, the zombie grabbed his arm. He quickly shot out more than a dozen ice blades, but they had no effect. He was about to be bitten.
Suddenly, a javelin-like ice spike shot out from a distance, sending the fifth-tier zombie flying backward and crashing into the horde of zombies.
At the same time, a powerful blast of cold air swept over them, and the zombies that couldn't dodge in time were instantly frozen into ice blocks.
Bai Jingkong's men were so shocked that they forgot to fire, staring at the woman whose every step exuded a chilling aura.
"Team Leader Xia, it's Team Leader Xia!"
Bai Jingkong's men were unaware of the annihilation of the three teams. Seeing Xia Yixin, they thought they were saved.
Bai Jingkong also saw the person who came, and her eyes lit up immediately.
Having cut off her long, tangled hair, the girl with short, choppy hair looked neat and tidy. Her delicate face was smaller than the palm of her hand, and her tight black sportswear revealed her slender yet exquisite figure. Her phoenix eyes held a wild beauty, and although she also had a composed expression, the ice beauty aroused a desire to conquer her.
With Xia Yixin's help, the convoy quickly broke out of the zombie horde, although they lost two vehicles, leaving only four.
The team members in the car chatted enthusiastically with Xia Yixin, who had saved them, while Bai Jingkong's expression was uncertain.
Just now, when Xia Yixin got into the car, she actually called out "Brother Bai" to him.
Since his affair with Guo Miaomiao was exposed two years ago, she has never called herself that again, which surprised Bai Jingkong greatly.
What's even more surprising is that Xia Yixin is now at the fifth level. She said she woke up in the wilderness and completely forgot how she got there. Her last memory was defeating a second-level mutated beast with the members of Team Three.
This happened more than a month ago. Could she have lost her memory?
Although Bai Jingkong was thinking, his ears were not idle. When he heard his teammates spontaneously telling her about the past two years, helping her "recover her memory" and even mentioning that "the two of them broke up," he quickly stopped them, saying, "Okay, let her rest for a bit."
Bai Jingkong looked at the pale-faced girl who was engrossed in the news that "the three teams were attacked and wiped out," and a crazy idea surged into her mind.
For some reason, she hasn't turned into a zombie, and has even become the strongest fifth-tier warrior!
Moreover, having lost two years of memories, he might be able to continue using her and make her work for him.
He put on his most charming gentle smile and reassured her, "Yixin, don't worry, now that I'm back, I promise I won't let your three teams die in vain."
He said he wanted to hold her in his arms like before, but she dodged him.
Then he met a pair of cold, deep eyes, and he was immediately startled, as if she had seen through him. But then her gaze turned back to confusion and unease, with some hesitation.
"Brother Bai, what's going on with them saying we broke up?"
Bai Jingkong's expression froze, and she mumbled something like "I'll explain when we get back" to get by.
He didn't see the cold smile that curled at the corner of Xia Yixin's lips.
Bai Jingkong's acting skills are really not up to par, and is that even gentleness? He doesn't even have the charm of Lu Yan when he was still Chu Mubai. Although he has sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, his eyebrows are low and his eyes are close together, making him look like a person who is eager for quick success and has no good intentions.
According to the original owner's memories, he deliberately sought opportunities to get close to Xia Yixin and took advantage of the original owner's naivety to gain the chance to become her parents' student.
The convoy slowly drove into the quarantine area.
After passing through the quarantine area, Bai Jingkong paid extra attention to Xia Yixin's condition. Even after his own corroded arm was bandaged, he couldn't wait to run to the quarantine tent where Xia Yixin was to confirm the results.
green!
She's not a zombie!
This result relieved Bai Jingkong and also confirmed her thoughts.
She's a fifth-tier ice-type, and she can definitely make K Base even stronger.
Xia Yixin had already guessed this outcome. There was a loophole in this quarantine system; it only checked whether you had mutated. She had already perfectly integrated, so of course it was impossible for her to give a red light.
After passing through the quarantine area and a tall iron gate, everyone officially entered the residential area.
After everyone passes through the quarantine area and walks through the tall concrete walls, they are considered to have truly entered the K base.
When the convoy entered K base, it first passed through the outer shantytown, which was the residential area for third-class citizens.
The dirt on the car surprised those who had been eagerly waiting, but what surprised them even more was seeing the person sitting next to Bai Jingkong inside the car.
"Xia, Xia Yixin!?!" A man exclaimed in terror.
Then, several others were recognized.
The heated discussion didn't erupt until the convoy entered the gate of the second section.
"Xia Yixin!? Wasn't she infected by zombies? How did she get back..."
"My God, she's still with Lord Bai! Could it be that Lord Bai has...?"
"Shh, keep your voice down, you don't want to live anymore!"
Suddenly, a burst of enthusiastic cheers erupted from the other side of the wall, startling them.
"Team Leader Xia!"
Compared to the ignorant masses who were considered third-class citizens outside, the members of the fifty-odd search teams had more contact with Team Three and Xia Yixin.
The team members who weren't on a mission were initially shocked to see the short-haired girl next to Bai Jingkong. After following the convoy for a while, seemingly confirming something, they exclaimed with delight, "Team Leader Xia is back!"
Upon hearing the sound, Xia Yixin seemed to be infused with a soul; her eyes went from dim to bright, and she jumped out of the moving car despite Bai Jingkong's attempts to stop her.
"Yixin!"
Bai Jingkong, who was a step too late, saw Xia Yixin immediately surrounded after getting out of the car. Frustrated, he punched the front seat and growled, "Stop the car! Stop the car now!"
He couldn't let the search team talk too much; he needed to gain her trust before she heard anything else that was detrimental to him.
Because the incident occurred in District 3, and Xia Ru and Guo Miaomiao blocked information and resolved the matter quickly, the search team only knew that District 3 had been attacked and the entire team had been wiped out. Although they felt the whole thing was very strange, they had no evidence to support the claim that Xia Yixin's parents had rashly left the city to look for her.
Xia Yixin is back now!
Immediately, they surrounded her, bombarding her with questions, until Bai Jingkong, with a dark expression, pushed them away.
