He was also very obedient, staying close to the group the whole way without daring to leave their side. The zombies were terrifying, and he used to have nightmares about them, but not anymore. He has become able to face them calmly.
Zhang Yiyang said to Chen Zui, "You must be tired too. Go take a shower and get some sleep."
"Okay, Sister Orange, Brother Yang, you should go to sleep early too." Chen Zui followed his grandfather back to his room.
Xie Qingye and the others sat to the side and poured him a glass of water, indicating that they were all ready to listen.
Zhang Yiyang picked up his water bottle, took a big gulp, and began to speak: "The place we arrived at on our first day..."
Zhang Yiyang recounted his experiences along the way, especially the thrilling and dangerous events of the first day, noting that no one he had encountered at other times had ever faced such a powerful zombie.
When everyone heard that the zombies were incredibly fast, could dodge attacks, and that bullets were barely effective, they showed expressions of horror.
If zombies can evolve, then are these people who awaken superpowers also evolving?
This speculation wasn't limited to them; the base commander was also speculating. The commander of the Fifth Base was a man around fifty years old. Perhaps his awakened superpower made his muscles appear quite developed. He sat at the head of the conference room, listening to the people at the conference table reporting on their work.
His hand holding the teacup paused. "You mean, that girl has a sword that can slay zombies?"
Han Yi sat near the door; everyone inside was a big shot, so his presence was relatively low. "Yes, base commander."
Wang Huan turned his gaze to Zhou Yi'an. "Yi'an, what do you think?"
Zhou Yi'an pondered for a moment and said, "I haven't seen her before. I only know that her ability is spatial, and the spatial range is not very large."
A subtle emotion flashed in Wang Huan's eyes. "Perhaps we could try offering her some benefits to get her to hand it over?"
Han Yi felt an indescribable contempt. He knew it. Then he began to recount the events of that day, including the fate of the superhuman who had tried to steal it.
Wang Huan replied, "He's not dead, is he? He just lost an arm. Maybe his ability level is too low and he hasn't reached the level required to use the sword."
Han Yi lowered his head and dared not speak, while the others speculated about the situation.
Seeing that they even enjoyed the scene of the sword directly guarding the base, Zhou Yi'an couldn't help but frown. To establish a base, they not only needed the help of the first base for everything, but also collected all kinds of good things. They not only robbed treasures, but also robbed a lot of beautiful women.
A ruthless glint flashed in Zhou Yi'an's eyes. How was he any different from those bandits?
Wang Huan's eyes gleamed. He noticed that both of them were keeping their heads down and not speaking. He frowned and said, "Alright, that's all for today's meeting. Han Yi, go and bring that girl over. I want to take a look at her."
Han Yi frowned and said, "Bringing her over directly will probably be difficult; she's not the type to compromise."
A beautiful woman sitting to the left of Wang Huan, with her legs crossed, said, "What's the big deal? They're just a bunch of kids. If you take ten superhumans with you, along with guns, how can they possibly be faster than a gun?"
Wang Huan showed a satisfied expression: "Not bad, I'll give you half an hour to bring the person over."
Zhou Yi'an stood up: "I'll go, I'll go and bring the person over."
Wang Huan looked at Zhou Yi'an, who had stood up. That's how it is when people have weaknesses; they are always controlled by others. "Alright, go and come back quickly."
Zhou Yi'an went alone without any superhumans. He had just knocked on the door when a young man came to open it.
The boy grinned and asked, "Are you the search team leader? What can I do for you?"
Zhou Yi'an gave a gentle smile: "May I come in and sit down?"
Xie Qingyuan opened the door: "Please come in." He turned and called inside: "Brother, we have a guest."
Xie Qingye had just finished showering when she heard her younger brother calling her. She changed her clothes and went downstairs to greet him.
He used the readily available hot water to make some tea. "Captain Zhou, please have a seat."
Zhou Yi'an looked around the house; it was decorated warmly and neatly.
Even before the apocalypse, his family wasn't this well-off; they had everything they needed, including a sofa and a coffee table.
Xie Qingyuan sat obediently next to his brother. He hadn't gone up to sleep yet because he was so bored. He was just about to get some water when he heard the knock on the door.
Xie Qingye glanced at him before smiling at Zhou Yi'an and asking, "Captain Zhou, is there something you need?"
Zhou Yi'an regained his composure. "The base commander wants to see Ye Shang." He paused for a moment, then continued, "Mainly because of the sword he used to kill zombies outside."
Xie Qingye's eyes were thoughtful: "Captain Zhou means that the base wants Ye Shang to hand over that sword?"
Zhou Yi'an fell silent.
Xie Qingye chuckled lightly, "I understand, Captain Zhou. I'm not sure if the base can acquire it, but you all know the consequences of coveting this sword, right?"
Zhou Yi'an nodded thoughtfully, then looked at Xie Qingye seriously: "Actually, I can let you leave and get out of the Fifth Base as soon as possible. In this era, those people are more terrifying than in the apocalypse."
