Chapter 223: End of the World 29



When Liu Ye first met Jiang Jingbo, she confessed that she had the ability to foresee the future and could see the fate of everyone in her dreams. Jiang Jingbo didn't believe it at first, but one day, he was sent on a mission by Yang Huatong. Liu Ye found him and said with certainty that this time he would die from the attack of a group of mutant wolves.

Jiang Jingbo just felt unlucky at the time, so he set off after making a few sarcastic remarks. On the way back, he actually encountered a pack of wolves. If Liu Ye had not led a team of psychics to rescue him in time, he would never have been able to go back. Afterwards, Liu Ye predicted the fate of several people, and all of them came true, which forced Jiang Jingbo to take it seriously.

As time went by, their relationship gradually deepened. When Jiang Jingbo believed in Liu Ye, she suddenly asked him to leave Base No. 1 and predicted that this place would be besieged by a tide of zombies and then destroyed. Jiang Jingbo and Yang Huatong already had ideological differences. He believed that ordinary people were a group of unproductive parasites who would only waste food and resources and were of no use to the base and should be turned away. But Yang Huatong hopes that Base No. 1 can become a paradise for all survivors, and that whether they are superpowers or ordinary people, they should all be treated equally.

As resources continued to be consumed, the conflict between the two became more and more acute. More psychics stood on Jiang Jingbo's side, believing that Base No. 1 should eliminate some ordinary people and leave all the food and resources to more powerful psychics. Therefore, Liu Ye's proposal was quickly adopted by Jiang Jingbo. Anyway, when the zombie tide passes, he can bring the psychics back, and then he will have all the supplies, territory, and food.

However, before leaving, he first had to confirm whether Liu Ye's "prophecy" was accurate. It is impossible for a zombie tide to form overnight, and their movements should be observable through reconnaissance satellites. But Base No. 1 did not have the right to use the reconnaissance satellite, so he used his connections to contact the top management of Base No. 3 and asked them to send the satellite photos over. Facts proved that Liu Ye's prediction was correct. He finally made up his mind to leave the base and kept the photos away and never made them public.

Fortunately, Base No. 3 was afraid of causing unnecessary trouble, so even after monitoring the movements of the zombie tide, it did not notify Yang Huatong. They thought that if Jiang Jingbo knew, it would be the same as Yang Huatong knowing, and the two would definitely be prepared. But Jiang Jingbo ran away with a group of people with special abilities, and the satellite photos in his hands became an important bargaining chip to persuade these people.

Between self-preservation and defending their homes, most of the people with special abilities chose to join Jiang Jingbo, and those who tried to go back to report the news were secretly executed by them. Jiang Jingbo does not think that his behavior is ugly. Since God has chosen some people to give them superpowers, it means that only these people are qualified to survive in this cruel world. Ordinary people should become stepping stones for the chosen ones, otherwise how could there be such a saying - If a man does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth!

In order to get back as soon as possible to take over Base No. 1 after the zombie tide, Jiang Jingbo's team did not go far, but temporarily settled down in a skyscraper across the river, observing the situation in the base every day. They are almost counting the days until the zombies attack the city. That scene must be spectacular. Comradeship and love for countrymen are nothing in the face of interests.

Finally, the zombie tide arrived as expected, and Base No. 1 was helpless as they expected, but soon, clouds of purple smoke exploded in the zombie tide, disrupting their vision. When the fog dissipated, a group of killer bees flew over the horizon. Each of them was as big as a fist, and when they formed a group, they blocked out the sun. Imagine what would happen if a swarm of bees flew into the base and released the poisonous stingers at their tails?

Jiang Jingbo held the telescope in one hand and touched his numb scalp with the other, sighing, "Ye Zi, luckily I listened to you and took these brothers away, otherwise, wouldn't we be shot into a hornet's nest by now?"

A superpowered person said in fear: "I heard that after being shot by the poisonous stinger of a killer bee, the blood and bones will immediately turn into pus. The bee will fly down from the sky, pierce your skin with its mouthparts, and suck you dry. This way of dying is too horrible. I would rather become a zombie than be eaten by them!"

"Boss, it's a good thing you met Sister Ye, otherwise we would all be finished!"

A group of people were talking and laughing, not caring at all that their compatriots were suffering.

Ma Ze also held a telescope and stood at the observation deck to observe the battle situation. Liu Ye's prediction was confirmed once again. The most excited person was not Jiang Jingbo, nor his subordinates, but Ma Ze himself. Because according to Willow's prophecy, he will develop a vaccine against the zombie virus, thus becoming a savior and being admired by everyone. Such a scene made his blood boil and he was extremely excited. To be honest, Xiao Junlin is a dozen years younger than him, but his achievements are far greater than his. When he was still unknown, Xiao Junlin was already internationally renowned and famous overseas.

How could he not be jealous, how could he not be depressed? He always believed that his talent was not inferior to anyone else's, he just lacked the opportunity to soar to success. Now, Liu Ye's prediction has indeed confirmed his assessment of himself, and therefore, he is proud and ambitious in his heart. As for the destruction of Base No. 1, what does it have to do with him?

He suppressed his excitement and said, "Liu Ye, now you should tell me what happened to Xiao Junlin, right?"

Liu Ye looked at Base No. 1, which was besieged by zombies and killer bees, and chuckled. "In order to protect Xiao Junlin, Base No. 1 sent a helicopter to take him away, but the plane broke down midway and had to land temporarily. He couldn't stand the fatigue and dirt of the long journey, so he ran away alone one night and never appeared again. But you and the other researchers successfully arrived at Base No. 3. He is just an ordinary person without superpowers. What do you think will happen to him? He will either be torn to pieces by zombies or become a meal for mutant beasts. If he can't even overcome a little mysophobia, what use is he? Dr. Ma, you don't have to worry about him. The laboratory of Base No. 1 is built underground. It will definitely not be damaged after the zombie tide recedes. We will leave the best equipment and resources for you."

Ma Ze nodded and smiled with satisfaction.

However, the next second, he and Liu Ye's faces changed at the same time. They saw the killer bees circling over the base for a few circles and then rushed into the zombie tide, launching a fierce attack without harming any survivors. The zombie army that was originally impossible to kill and eliminate fell in large numbers in an instant, greatly relieving the pressure on Base No. 1.

"What's going on?" Jiang Jingbo asked in horror.

"Boss, look carefully, in addition to killer bees, there are also mutant spiders in the zombie tide!" a psychic reminded.

Jiang Jingbo took a closer look and his face turned dark. I saw a large group of mutant spiders appearing in the zombie tide. Each of them was as big as a tire. They instantly spit out spider silk and trapped the zombies. Wherever they passed, white fluff flew everywhere, and countless zombies struggled in the sticky spider webs, then turned into pus. Their lethality was no less than that of a swarm of killer bees.

"There are also army ants and corpse-eating insects!" another psychic whispered in disbelief.

Jiang Jingbo changed to a high-power telescope and carefully observed the battle situation on the other side. His confident expression was replaced by surprise. how so? Why did a large group of mutated insects suddenly appear outside the base and specifically attack zombies, as if they were sent by God to save Base No. 1?

Liu Ye's expression also changed, because the current scene was completely different from her memory! If this continues, will Base No. 1 be able to turn things around and survive? Just as she was feeling uneasy, Jiang Jingbo sneered, "Stupid, with such a large group of bugs coming, they actually released mutant plants. Do they think the base is not falling fast enough?"

"But Boss, those plants seem to be strangling the zombies as well."

"Once all the zombies are killed, they will naturally grow in the base." Jiang Jingbo sneered, and after he came to his senses, he couldn't help but curse: "Fuck, Yang Hua and that old fox are actually trying to destroy me together! Planting these mutant plants, even if all their people die, we can't go back! We can't get any supplies and food!"

"Boss, what should we do? Should we withdraw immediately and find another place to rebuild the base?"

"Where to retreat? We also contributed a lot in the beginning. Which of those city walls, towers and fortresses was not built by us with great effort? And the food and supplies in the base were also collected by us. Are we just going to give up like this?" Jiang Jingbo became more and more unwilling to give up. He picked up the telescope and took a closer look. He found that the level of those mutated plants was higher than the other. There was no possibility of eliminating them at all. His face couldn't help but twist.

"What else can I do if I don't let go?"

Jiang Jingbo was silent for a long time before he grinned and said, "I want to see how Yang Hua and these people died!"

This lasted for more than ten days. Finally, one day, the zombie tide began to retreat slowly, but Base No. 1 still stood on the other side of the river. It had not been razed to the ground, and there had been no irreparable casualties. The insect swarms and mutated plants shared most of the firepower for them, and they only needed to walk around the city wall every day and place a few purple poisons.

"Boss, the battle is over, they are still alive!" a psychic spoke in a hoarse voice.

"We're just getting started! The mutated plants and insect swarms are still here!" Jiang Jingbo had a disdainful look on his face, but his heart was filled with turmoil. Regardless of whether Yang Huatong was drinking poison to quench his thirst or not, the fact that he could hold out for eighteen days under the siege of the zombie army was already a miracle! This was far beyond Jiang Jingbo's expectations, and gave him an ominous premonition for no reason.

Liu Ye said firmly: "The zombie tide has receded, and the battle at Base No. 1 has just begun. Just watch, they are courting their own destruction." Although everything before her eyes was different from her memory, the result was always the same. No one can walk out alive from being surrounded by mutated plants and insect swarms, no one!
