Yang Hong left, and Han Junche and Chi Xia, along with Qin Zhao, were on their way back to the base.
Qin Zhao, sitting in the back seat, raised an eyebrow at Han Junche through the rearview mirror: "So, wasn't my contribution significant?"
Han Junche, driving the car, pursed his lips slightly upon hearing this: "It's alright, but don't get too excited. I think Old Yang and the others clearly had a plan when they launched this attack."
"I know that."
Qin Zhao sat up straight and recounted in detail how Yang Hong had recruited him and what he had said.
Chi Xia, who was originally sitting in the passenger seat with her eyes closed, resting and recovering her strength and abilities, couldn't help but frown and ask after hearing Qin Zhao's words: "Could it be that they want zombies to become the dominant species in the empire and turn us living people into lowly commoners like in ancient times?"
Upon hearing this, both Han Junche and Qin Zhao's expressions turned serious, clearly indicating that this was highly likely.
To put it another way, if they were infected with the virus and became the spokesperson for the plague, and they also possessed superpower cores that everyone coveted, it would be logical for them to strike first.
The atmosphere inside the car suddenly became heavy. Han Junche remained silent for a long time before pursing his lips and saying, "Let's do our best and leave the rest to fate. We've done our best."
Chi Xia glanced at his somber face, then at Qin Zhao in the back seat, and said, "Why think so much? We've done our best. At worst, we can find a secluded mountain forest to live in seclusion. Without so many messy things, without such heavy burdens, we might even live a more carefree life."
Upon hearing this, Qin Zhao smiled and nodded: "Chi Xia is right. There's no need for so much trouble. Let's just have a bunch of brothers find a secluded mountain forest and enjoy the pleasure of a hermit in advance."
Han Junche nodded and said, "Okay."
The somber atmosphere inside the car lightened up because of this topic.
But the heaviness in their hearts did not dissipate at all, because they all knew that once many things start, there is no way to stop them.
Han Junche's unique circumstances meant that he could not go into seclusion. If there was still a one percent chance before, now that the research team knew his identity, even that one percent had become a pipe dream.
Chi Xia was naturally aware of this as well. She looked at Han Junche's handsome profile and silently made her plans.
She also had two self-defense abilities given to her by Xiaotong, which could control the range and power of the explosion. If those people in the capital really had such intentions, she wouldn't mind using them once.
Don't blame her for being ruthless; once people have a stance, they will naturally consider things from their own perspective.
Han Junche and Chi Xia returned to the Sirius Base. The teams that had been sent out earlier had all returned, and everyone gathered in the command room to report on the situation from all sides.
The sniper squad from the north and south suffered heavy losses. They thought they were going to be buried there, but the zombies suddenly retreated.
This must be Yang Hong's work.
Qin Zhao concealed his identity and repeated Yang Hong's words in front of everyone.
Upon hearing the name Yang Hong, Han Zheng frowned but said nothing.
Many of the people present were Yang Hong's subordinates, and their expressions were quite complicated when they heard that Yang Hong had become the zombie king.
Those who had previously questioned Han Junche remained incorrigible and jumped out again: "Captain Han, I know it's inappropriate to say these things at this time, but it's impossible to get them to obey our commands based solely on an alien's deduction and some so-called inhibitors."
