Chapter 108
TL: Moonlit
Xiao Hen didnt go to the third district but headed straight for the central area of the mega city. Specifically, he was driving north, planning to enter the fifth district from the borderline.
Since the headquarters of the Mud Rat organization was in the fifth district and Wen Qingling had provided the antidote to the zombie virus to them, they had some leverage. The military vehicles from the sixth district were relentlessly pursuing them this time, determined to capture Wen Qingling. Even if it meant negotiating with the other districts, they were not willing to let Wen Qingling escape.
When Wen Qingling was far away in Ling City, they couldnt do anything to him. But now that he had arrived in the central mega city, it was a perfect opportunity to capture him, and Lord Nie would never give up no matter what.
Wen Qingling continued to use the Hell of Vines, flipping over the chasing military vehicles one after another. However, it was futile as they kept coming, replacing the ones that were overturned.
Wen Qingling furrowed his brows and asked, Which is the nearest Zombie City around here?
Xiao Hen was startled and cautioned him, Dont be impulsive.
The largest Zombie City near the central mega city was indeed Yunjing City, and Xiao Hen didnt know how much Wen Qinglings strength had increased after leveling up. It was possible that he could gather the zombies from Yunjing City. In that case, not only would a horde of zombies come, but it could also attract the terrifying existence hiding there.
Wen Qingling pondered carefully and said, Could it be Yunjing City?
Xiao Hen replied, Exactly, Yunjing City.
Wen Qingling rubbed his chin in thought, and seeing his expression, Xiao Hens heart almost stopped beating. Dont forget that there is a formidable presence in Yunjing City that you cant defeat.
Wen Qingling nodded and said, Ill go and challenge them once I become strong enough.
Xiao Hen exclaimed, No, you absolutely shouldnt!
Poking a hornets nest would never end well. Either it would explode or youd be stung all over.
Wen Qingling was displeased. Whats wrong with Lu Tianjin? Did his brain get infected along with his body turning into a zombie? Its been so long, and he still hasnt found anyone.
To be precise, Lu Tianjin hadnt even entered the first district yet. His body emitted a foul odor that made it inconvenient for him to move around. If they didnt act quickly and let Xu Shengfei escape again, where would they find her in this vast world?
From their conversation just now, Luo Fengjue couldnt understand anymore. Now that he heard Lu Tianjin and turned into a zombie, he was horrified. If his memory didnt fail him, South City Base was wiped out, and Lu Tianjin should have died in the horde of zombies. How did he have a name here with Wen Qingling?
Wen Qingling noticed Luo Fengjues bewildered gaze and remembered that he hadnt told him about Lu Tianjin. He tried to reassure him, I brought Lu Tianjin to seek revenge, and Xu Shengfei is also in the central mega city.
Luo Fengjue wasnt comforted at all. But isnt Lu Tianjin dead?
Wen Qingling replied, More accurately, he turned into a zombie.
This time, it wasnt just Luo Fengjue who was shocked; even Mi Yan was dumbfounded.
Luo Fengjue struggled to say, So what?
Wen Qingling nodded and said, So I brought him here for revenge.
Luo Fengjues scalp tingled, and his hair stood on end. You brought a zombie here for revenge?
Wen Qingling nodded, indicating that he was right.
Luo Fengjue almost screamed, Hehehes already a zombie! How did you bring him here No, how did a zombie manage to enter the central mega city?
Wen Qingling looked at him strangely. Theres a skill called climbing walls, understand?
You climbed the walls to enter the city?! This time, it was not Luo Fengjue but Mi Yan who screamed!
Both of them looked at the smooth walls that were hundreds of meters high, unable to fathom how they managed to climb them. Wasnt that something only humans could do?
Excuse me, but now is not the time for chatting. Prepare to escape, Xiao Hen spoke up.
Wen Qingling said, Actually, I can make them all kneel down and call me daddy.
Xiao Hen replied, Unless you want to keep chasing Xu Shengfei all over the world.
Wen Qingling:
Because he didnt want to, he kept enduring.
Xiao Hen began assigning tasks, Da Bai, the target is too big. Take the captives and go ahead.
Xiao Hen continued, Qingling, take Mi Yan. Ill handle the rest.
The battered military vehicle rushed into a small alley and abruptly stopped. Da Bai had already charged out with someone in its mouth. Wen Qingling and Mi Yan jumped off the vehicle. Xiao Hen held onto Luo Fengjue with one hand and lifted the half-dead Bei Ya with the other, and they started running again inhumanly fast.
When the remaining military vehicles caught up, all they saw was an empty vehicle. The people had vanished without a trace. Just as they were unsure of how to track them, they noticed the bloodstains on the ground.
The pursuers were led astray by the bloodstains. They still didnt understand the cruelty of the world and the terrifying nature of psychic abilities. As long as they saw the bloodstains, they could track them easily, but if they didnt see them, they wouldnt be able to find them even if they crawled on the ground.
The two of them raced through the streets and alleys of the fifth district like a whirlwind. Along the way, Wen Qingling casually grabbed a dirty child. When they reached a hidden spot and stopped, Luo Fengjue and Mi Yan, who were being held, crouched in a corner.
Surprisingly, the unconscious Bei Ya and the dirty child showed no signs of dizziness.
The child looked at them in fear. Wen Qingling pointed to his own hat and mask and said, See this?
The child exclaimed, Ahhh!!!
Letting out a shrill scream.
Wen Qingling sternly said, Shut up! If you scream again, Ill turn you into a shark!
The child quickly covered his mouth, tears streaming down his face, trembling with fear.
Xiao Hen frowned and asked, Are you a child from the Mud Rat organization?
The child shook his head vigorously.
Xiao Hen said,
Xiao Hen said, Dont be afraid, we wont harm you. You can go.
The child quickly ran away without daring to stay for a moment.
Wen Qingling looked at Xiao Hen in confusion and asked, Arent all dirty children part of the Mud Rat organization?
Xiao Hen helplessly replied, Children who have parents wouldnt join such an organization.
A black commercial vehicle stopped in front of them. The driver rolled down the window and said, Our boss sent me to pick you up.
This time, Wen Qingling was smarter and asked, The Mud Rat boss?
The driver replied, Yes.
Wen Qingling and Xiao Hen were not afraid of trouble. If they played any tricks, they would be the ones to suffer in the end.
They got into the car, and Wen Qingling used his psychic power to communicate with Da Bai, instructing it to follow them.
The person who could accurately locate their position definitely wasnt an ordinary person. When they finally saw the rumored Mud Rat boss, Xiao Hen immediately recognized him.
Though they werent close, they had met before.
Among the seven major forces in the Central Mega City, the young generation with a reputation included Xiao Hen, Yin Cheng, Mo Jiangs son, Mo Chengshuang, Lei Jiangs son, Lei Yuxiao, Hua Jiangs daughter, Hua Fei, and Nie Jiangs son Nie Tianling. Their ages were similar to Xiao Hen, Mo Jiang, Lei Jiang, Hua Jiang, and Xia Jiang, but due to personal strength issues, Nie Tianling had never been able to take the position of Nie Jiang. Not only him, even his son Nie Hao, though a few years younger than Xiao Hen and the others, was still of the same generation and didnt have a name among their peers.
As for Xia Jiang, his abilities and strength were not lacking, but his luck was. His wife, son, and the old General Xia all turned into zombies. He fought alone with his fathers old subordinates to this day and gained a place in the Central Mega City, ensuring that his soldiers could survive and wouldnt sacrifice themselves unnecessarily on the battlefield.
The boss of the Mud Rat organization was none other than Lei Yuxiao, the son of Lei Jiang from the fifth district.
The Lei family had good luck. Both father and son awakened the power of lightning. With their strength, they could easily occupy one of the four regions. The only regret was that Leis old man retired too early, and Lei Yuxiao, alone in the military, didnt have the same position as the other families with the protection of their elders. This also limited his authority, and after the apocalypse broke out, the number of people he could bring with him was much lower than the other factions.
However, with the strength of the Lei family father and son, they managed to hold the fifth district of the Central Mega City, and their power should not be underestimated.
Colonel Xiao, its been a while, Lei Yuxiao, with a refined temperament and a gentle smile, showed no trace of a military presence.
Xiao Hen nodded, Young Master Lei.
Since they knew each other, there was no need to conceal anything. Xiao Hen took off his hat and mask.
Lei Yuxiao is indeed not a regular military personnel. He used to be interested in business before the apocalypse, but for the sake of survival, he followed his father and worked hard. However, he couldnt develop the qualities and character of a soldier.
Lei Yuxiaos gaze fell on the other people, and seeing that Xiao Hen didnt show any intention of introducing them, he didnt inquire further and invited them to take a seat.
However, Xiao Hen shook his head and said, I have some private matters to attend to at the moment. We can discuss it in detail later.
Lei Yuxiao looked at the bloodied person thrown at the entrance and asked, Do you need me to provide a venue?
Xiao Hen replied, If its convenient for you.
Lei Yuxiao had his men take them to the basement. Lei Yuxiaos basement was much more advanced compared to the one where Luo Fengjue and Mi Yan were held captive. The basement was elevated and widened, with no windows and smooth walls. Once the heavy door was closed, it became a perfect place for confinement and interrogation.
It seemed that this place had served this purpose before, as there were still traces of blood on the floor. Bei Ya and Jiang Xin were thrown in, and with Da Bais massive body blocking the doorway, there was no need to close the door.
Bei Ya and Jiang Xin were both injured, bleeding profusely, and barely clinging to life.
They couldnt let them die like this. Wen Qingling gave each of them a small energy ball to sustain them, allowing them to regain some consciousness. As soon as Bei Ya regained a bit of strength, she began screaming for help and struggling to crawl toward the door, but she was kicked back by Mi Yan.
Mi Yan squatted down, looking at her and showing his bald head, Look at my hands. Theyve been chopped three times. Do you think I should make you taste the same pain?
Mi Yan continued, Right, you dont have the ability to regenerate, so I can only chop off your hands, then your legs, and finally your arms, making you experience the pain three times over!
Bei Ya trembled in fear, her body shaking uncontrollably, tears and mucus flowing, It wasnt me, it wasnt me. It was him. He made me do it!
Jiang Xin stared at Wen Qingling with a resentful gaze, filled with hatred. He knew that in Wen Qingling and Mi Yans hands, he was doomed. He didnt argue or plead for mercy; he just hoped for a quick and painless death.
Wen Qingling stared back at Jiang Xin, puzzled, Why do you dislike me so much?
It had escalated to hatred now.
Wen Qingling had never done anything to offend Jiang Xin, and she couldnt understand why he held such contempt for her.
Jiang Xin sneered, Do you need a reason to dislike someone?
It was like someone naturally disliking someone; sometimes theres just no explanation for it.
