Chapter 40 Rescue



After collecting the equipment in the laboratory building, it was already noon. The five of them had a simple lunch and then went straight to the power transmission and reception equipment on the second underground floor.

"Crazy, after we move this experimental equipment back, what do you want to study first?"

After the generator set was put into the space, the surroundings became pitch black and scary.

Han Shuxin looked at the faint light from the flashlight, which seemed small and pitiful in the extra-large basement.

It would be great if the madman could figure out how to generate electricity using crystal cores.

By then, nuclear power, wind power, and solar power will all be eliminated.

"Why don't we study how to use crystal cores to generate electricity?"

Han Shuxin slowed down her pace and slowly moved towards Yan Xun, reaching out to tentatively grasp Yan Xun's warm palm.

"Brother, what do you think the madman should study first?"

Yan Xun looked down. Han Shuxin turned away awkwardly, but held onto his hand tightly. "Brother, let's go faster. It's too dark here!"

Yan Xun's mouth curled up slightly, and he let her pull him out of the basement.

When they reached the stairs, Han Shuxin shook off Yan Xun's hand and ran up first.

Yan Xun, who was thrown away after use, looked at his hands, then looked at Han Shuxin's back, and smiled helplessly.

After leaving the laboratory, Han Shuxin looked at his watch. It was two o'clock in the afternoon.

"Brother, shouldn't we go home?"

Han Shuxin looked at Yan Xun expectantly. The basement was too dark and she never wanted to go down there again.

"Well, let's go!"

at the same time.

Another group of people, halfway across Kyoto, set out at the same time and headed towards the western suburbs safety zone.

"Brother Feipeng, you're awake, that's great!

The radio said the government has established a safety zone in the western suburbs. Let's go there first. There's military protection there, so it's very safe."

Zhao Rongrong saw Zhao Feipeng, who was leaning on her legs, wake up and her eyes turned red with excitement.

"Brother Feipeng, you've been unconscious for a whole day and night. I was so worried!"

Zhao Feipeng moved his fingers and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of Zhao Rongrong's eyes. "Be good, don't cry, I'm fine!"

"How can you be okay? If you hadn't saved me, you wouldn't have been injured so badly.

It’s all my fault for not being able to do anything right. I’m only dragging you down…”

Zhao Feipeng felt distressed and coaxed softly:

"How can you say that you are a burden?

You are a rare healing superpower. Because of you, I am still alive. I should be the one to say thank you!"

Zhao Rongrong burst into laughter and said to Zhao Feipeng, "What are you talking about dying? If you die, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life."

Liu Ruicheng sat in the passenger seat, watching the "loving" interaction between Zhao Rongrong and Zhao Feipeng in silence, feeling very uncomfortable.

He could see that Zhao Feipeng liked Zhao Rongrong.

Moreover, after this injury, Zhao Rongrong's concern for Zhao Feipeng cannot be faked.

He looked at the two cars following behind, then looked at the bodyguard driving the car, and a feeling of inferiority welled up in his heart.

Before the end of the world, he and Zhao Feipeng were both chosen by heaven, and because he was from Kyoto, he felt that he was one level higher than Zhao Feipeng.

But after the end of the world, everything changed. His parents turned into zombies, and he was no longer the almighty Young Master Liu.

Veins popped in Liu Ruicheng's hands as he gripped the steering wheel. If only he could hide Zhao Rongrong...

When Yan Xun and his companions returned to the base villa, they saw a man in military uniform standing at the door of the villa and pacing back and forth.

The soldier saluted Yan Xun when he saw him.

"Lieutenant Colonel Yan, Lieutenant General Liu wants to see you about something important. He said he has met someone of yours. Please go to the military headquarters immediately."

"Lieutenant General Liu has already sent people here twice. I wonder what the urgent matter is?"

Aunt Mei put down the watermelon she had cut and said with a worried look on her face, "I wanted to wait until you guys had a rest before telling you."

The soldier was a little embarrassed. "Lieutenant General Liu seems to have something urgent to do. Please ask Lieutenant Colonel Yan to go over and take a look at it earlier."

If it wasn't a very serious matter, Liu Jianpeng wouldn't have come to him in such a high-profile manner.

Yan Xun frowned slightly, pulled Han Shuxin along and followed the soldier.

The two soon arrived at Liu Jianpeng's office.

"Uncle Liu was anxious to get me here, but what happened?"

Yan Xun is not a person who drags his feet. When he met Liu Jianpeng, he asked him directly why he was looking for him.

"You're finally back!"

Liu Jianpeng was so anxious that sweat covered his forehead. Seeing Yan Xun was like seeing a savior.

"This morning, Chief Lu and I sent people out to clean up the Rong Xiang Solar Photovoltaic Panel Production Base. Within half a day, the people we sent out lost contact with the base.

We sent out another group of people in the afternoon, but there was no news either."

Liu Jianpeng's face was serious, and he said in a low voice, "The people I sent out were all my capable subordinates. I didn't expect to encounter something like this.

Yan Xun, please run a trip for Uncle Liu!"

"Give me a structural diagram of a photovoltaic panel production base."

"Okay, okay," Liu Jianpeng hurriedly arranged for his men to fetch a city construction map and personally handed it to Yan Xun.

“This morning, I applied to Commander Lu to restore your rank of Lieutenant Colonel. I had intended to formally announce your acceptance of the rank at the next meeting.

Commander Lu and I are both very optimistic about you. The future of the base depends on you."

Yan Xun remained noncommittal. "I will do what I think I should do. The future of the base is everyone's business!"

After leaving Lieutenant General Liu, Yan Xun and his party left the base again, this time wearing cool motorcycles that made it easier to travel around the city.

“Why am I always the one who suffers?”

Han Shuxin sat on the back of the motorcycle, pouted, stared at the back of Yan Xun's head, and muttered softly.

Perhaps the wind was too loud, or perhaps Han Shuxin's voice was too soft, Yan Xun seemed not to hear her complaint.

The group drove at high speed and soon arrived at the Rong Xiang solar photovoltaic panel production base.

"Something's wrong. Why do I feel like all the zombies nearby are moving in this direction?"

Zhang Yulong exclaimed in surprise, "Could it be that the zombies smelled the breath of the living?"

Looking at the zombies that were still gathering here, Su Rui asked in confusion:

"Although the breath of living people can attract zombies, it will not attract this type of unit.

If that's what you mean, then our base would be surrounded by zombies."

Looking at the obviously unusual group of zombies, Yan Xun picked up the telescope and carefully observed the situation of these zombies.

He discovered that outside a certain range from the photovoltaic panel production base, the zombies did not move towards the production base in an orderly manner like they do now.

Only the zombies within a thousand meters seemed to be obeying orders and moving closer.

"These zombies are not attracted by the breath of living people, but by something else."

After hearing what Yan Xun said, the madman also picked up the telescope, observed carefully for a while, and said:

"Boss is right. These zombies are moving in a very regular pattern, as if they are following orders."

Zhang Yulong asked doubtfully, "Could it be that zombies have also gained intelligence?"

"The apocalypse has only begun for about half a month, and the zombies are evolving at a much too fast rate."
