Apocalyptic Rebirth - C219 go back
While the few of them were arguing, Lin Lin suddenly spoke out.
“We should go back.”
With these words, everyone quieted down.
After a few days of living in seclusion, they were actually reluctant to leave.
Every day at sunrise, they would wash up together and go ‘hunt’ together after breakfast. This was because the one in front of them was not the ugly Zombie in human form, but rather a mutated beast.
The happiest was probably at night.
Everyone sat around the bonfire, drinking hot soup, eating different kinds of wild game and vegetables, then joked around like before, or else they ate their crystal cores and slept at night in their own places.
These few days, it was as if they had been together for a long time. The way they got along was like they were friends, but more like family.
Since Lin Lin suggested to leave, everyone was naturally reluctant.
However, everyone knew that staying here forever was not a realistic idea. After all, the defense of the cave was not as strong as the base. It was still okay to stay here temporarily, but it was not a good choice for a long time.
The most important thing was, if they continued to hunt the wild beasts of a mountain, they would be hunted down sooner or later.
Their most important objective, however, was not to kill the mutated beasts, but rather the Zombie.
“Rest early. We’ll return to the base after completing the mission tomorrow.”
Han Yue was a bit depressed. He didn’t even bother with the little fox’s provocation. He shrugged his shoulders and walked to his cave to sleep for the last time.
The ones who were on guard tonight were Lin Lin and Yang Dazhu, and they were about to lie down when Lin Lin came out of the cave. Just as Yang Dazhu was about to catch up, a person suddenly stopped him.
“Let me do it tonight.”
Yang Dazhu was an honest man, whenever he was in a place, he would obey the orders of the people in charge and nod his head without hesitation.
“Oh, I got it, Vice Commander Jiang.”
Jiang Yishu nodded and walked out.
Lin Lin was leaning on a tree outside the cave. It was a pine tree, and its position was good, facing the scenery below the mountain. Without any cover, a glance would allow him to see everything.
Hearing the commotion behind him, Lin Lin continued to look forward with his hands folded. He did not move.
The moonlight shone down on the person in front of him, and although it was just his back, Jiang Yishu felt his heart beating extremely hard.
Why would there be a person in this world? Just standing there was enough to make one’s heart flustered.
“Captain.”
Jiang Yishu stood there for a good long while before he finally spoke.
Lin Lin was not surprised at all, she even did not turn her head around, and only asked: “What’s the matter?”
Jiang Yishu hesitated for a moment before replying, “The teamwork ability of the team is increasing, and the beast cores are also increasing our abilities. We actually don’t need to rush back to the base.”
Lin Lin suddenly tilted his head and asked: “You never asked me why I was in such a hurry to retrieve the gunpowder, nor did you ask me why I was in such a hurry to return.”
Jiang Yishu was startled, “Leader, your decision, I …”
Lin Lin interrupted Jiang Yishu, “YiShu, you forgot, you are now Lie Mu’s vice leader. Lie Mu, even if it’s just a member, you have the absolute say, not to mention you’re the vice captain. Long ago, I wasn’t your boss, and you weren’t one of my subordinates. ”
At that moment, for some reason, Jiang Yishu felt that he could not utter a word.
He clearly didn’t want her to be his subordinate, but when the other party actually said those words …
However, Jiang Yishu felt like he and Lin Lin had both gone over, and in an instant, turned him into the same position as the rest of the Intense Wood Sect disciples.
“You will always be my Boss Lin.”
Lin Lin looked at Jiang Yishu for a long time, and Jiang Yishu also allowed his to stare for a long time.
Tonight’s moonlight was bright.
“If you’re happy, feel free to do so.”
Jiang Yishu didn’t heave a sigh of relief as he had expected, but he felt that the person in front of him seemed to be moving further and further away from him.
The two of them stood like this for a long time.
“Captain, do we have to return to the base tomorrow?”
Lin Lin had already tilted her head back a long time ago, but after hearing this, she nodded and said, “Mn.”
He had to, he had to go back.
When he took out the gunpowder again, the unease in Lin Lin’s heart did not decrease, but instead, became deeper and deeper.
It seemed that something would happen soon.
“YiShu, how long do you think Base A can hold out for?”
With a sudden question, Jiang Yishu turned around quickly and said: “On the surface it looks peaceful, but the situation in the apocalypse changed drastically. No one knows what will happen in the next second, the people from Base A are too confident.”
However, he paused before continuing, “However, I am not clear about the situation of the upper echelons of base A, so I am not able to give a definition of it yet.”
Lin Lin chuckled, “Although I’m not sure, but at the very least, I’m not as weak as we thought. I’m not as smart as those people at the base.”
Jiang Yishu was a smart person. After contacting Lin Lin, she asked, “Guild Leader, are you using gunpowder to prepare for the problems that Base A might encounter in the future?”
“Yes.”
Although he had only answered two words, Lin Lin had already expressed his goal.
Sometimes, you are the only one who knows. You are the only one who shares the burden. In addition to the shoulder fatigue, your heart is also exceptionally tired.
The moonlight tonight was too beautiful, making Lin Lin want to relax and share some of the burden.
It could also be said that Lin Lin and Jiang Yishu were admiring the moon while chatting until daybreak.
“Although I have seen many exits on the first day, I still feel very shocked, and very beautiful.”
Jiang Yishu could not help but mutter as he stared at the red sun rising from behind the mountains.
Before the apocalypse, sunrise was hard for them to see, but after the apocalypse, they often stayed up late into the morning. Sunrise was just as common as sunset.
Lin Lin also nodded.
“It is indeed very beautiful.”
These words were not said by Lin Lin, but were said by Han Yue, who had come out of the cave at some point in time and was standing behind them.
Jiang Yishu turned his head and saw that it was Han Yu.
Han Yu laughed bitterly. “Big Brother Jiang, don’t make fun of me. I didn’t expect it to be this early, I was woken up by the smell of urine.”
Jiang Yishu asked, “Is it pungent?”
Could it be that Adepts couldn’t control their urination?
Han Yue gritted his teeth, “It’s that little fox Shen Mei. I don’t know what she did to my head.
As he spoke, his face was filled with disgust, as if he was about to vomit.
“The key is that this little fox is smart enough to jump into Shen Mei’s embrace, bullying me, making me not dare to directly catch him!”
Lin Lin heard Han Yu’s accusation and curled his lips.
A fox was smart among wild beasts, not to mention a mutated beast. Its intelligence was estimated to be that of a seven or eight year old human child.
“Aiya, I won’t say anymore. I’m going to wash my face, but now I feel like I still smell something on me!”
Bai Yu couldn’t possibly release the water every day, so she took out a large water jar from Huang Yue’s pile of ‘rubbish’ early in the morning and stored quite a bit of water.
Our Young Master Bai is not such a good-natured volunteer.
With regards to the mission at the base, there definitely wouldn’t be any problems for the current Strong Wood.
Other than Chen Chen and Huang Yue who had special abilities, and needed to slowly level up by themselves for the time being, the rest of them had more or less levelled up after consuming their beast cores.
With just the team they had now, they would definitely be able to sweep through all of the hunting group in base A, including Gu Tianyi’s group.
Although Gu Tianyi was currently at the fourth level, it was unfortunate. Two days ago, Lin Lin had also levelled up to the fourth level.
But from the looks of it, Lin Lin had a higher chance of winning.
Of course, in the eyes of the Enforcers, their leader was an invincible thunderbolt. At the moment, none of them had ever seen anyone stronger than their leader.
That was how confident he was.
The mission of the base was to clean up the Zombie of the middle school, and there weren’t that many of them. Lin Lin didn’t think that she would just do it half-heartedly just because it was a simple mission, so after cleaning the surrounding area, she went back and swept through the area again, until she finished all the Zombie in her sight, then she returned home with the rest of the group.
Only, for some reason, when Lin Lin finally drove away, she felt that there was someone behind him looking at her.
Other than hostility, there was also an indifferent attitude.
To humans, this was the opposite.
When they met people they didn’t know, they would usually check them out and then use a faint hint of hostility.
Therefore, Lin Lin was sure that that was a Zombie.
If it was just this, Lin Lin would not have cared. After all, there were many Zombie in the apocalypse, so who wouldn’t covet humans?
Most importantly, she could feel that the Zombie’s aura was stronger than hers.
“Sister Lin, what’s wrong?”
Xi Shiyu asked after seeing that Lin Lin had not driven for a long time.
High-ranked Adepts had a certain level of perception towards dangerous creatures, but for beings like Xi Shiyu, whose perception was still too weak. Adding the fact that that creature seemed to be targeting Lin Lin, Xi Shiyu did not feel anything was wrong and asked Lin Lin.
Lin Lin started the car and said: “Return to the base first, and not long after, there will be a fierce battle to fight.”
Xi Shiyu and the rest did not understand, but not long later, they understood the meaning of Lin Lin’s words.
That was the second night after they returned to the base. Without any entertainment, other than cultivating superpowers, all they could do was go to sleep early and not waste any resources.
And when most of the base’s people were asleep, the base’s alarm went off.
It was an ear-piercing sound, and it was extremely urgent. Anyone who heard it would only have one feeling.
Danger!
Extreme danger!
It wasn’t as if there had been attacks on the base, but most of them were worthless Zombie s. The ordinary people of the base were not even woken up, and those Zombie s were immediately exterminated by the soldiers of the wall or the guards. It was only on the morning of the second day that a group of people found out about the Zombie’s sneak attack.
And this was the first time he had encountered such an alarm.
The people from Intense Wood all opened their eyes at the same time and came to the hall one after another. Of course, Qin Rongyue was not one of them.
When everyone was ready to go downstairs, he came out of the room with a sleepy look and mumbled to himself.
“What’s wrong? Why aren’t you sleeping at night? Where did this sound come from? It’s so unpleasant!”
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention, under Gu Tianyi’s’ tutelage ‘, Qin Rongyue became even more annoying.
