Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Twenty-hours later, Wang Jian and his people finally arrived at All Beings Base. They were supposed to arrive two days ago.

But before entering the base, their road was blocked by a zombie wall.

“Again? A zombie crowd?” Wang Jian’s men all wore sour faces. The road was jammed by zombies. Did that mean they needed to take a detour again?

Looking at the pale-faced survivors under their leadership, Wang Jian and his men didn’t know how much longer they could make. Even Wang Jian himself and the other strong men were barely holding up. They had no food, and only water for days.

Lu Tong and the others who were following behind the commoners at a distance discovered the situation as well.

“Chen Hao, you were actually defeated by Wang Jian and his men! You’re such a shame of superpowered people!” On top of a building that was about eight-hundred meters away from Wang Jian and his people, Li Honglin was looking at the front through a telescope while criticizing Chen Hao who was standing by his side.

“Why didn’t you go and do the job if you think you’re so much better?” Chen Hao gave him a cold glance and said.

Lu Tong glanced at Chen Hao in a meaningful way, then said, “Alright, now is not the time to talk about that. Chen Hao, you can leave if you don’t want to go with us.”

“Leave? I’d like to. Give us our zombie nuclei and then we’ll get out of your eyes,” Chen Hao turned to look at him while smiling meaningfully.

“Zombie nuclei? Didn’t I give them to you long ago?” Lu Tong looked at him, also with a smile.

“You gave them to me? Why don’t I know about that?” Chen Hao stared straight at him.

Lu Tong showed no fear to the look in his eyes, but responded with a faint smile, “Yeah? But, I clearly remember giving them to you.”

After saying that, Lu Tong winked at Chen Hao, which explained his meaning. The latter then turned away without saying anything.

Lu Tong was trying to tell Chen Hao that he had dirt on the latter, so the latter should do everything he wanted and follow every word he said.

Chen Hao gazed into the distance. Waves of killing intention rose from his heart, then sank back down.

Wang Jian and his people gave a start when they saw the zombie crowd, because they were already very close to those zombies, and the zombies would smell them soon. As they prepared for the zombies to swarm at them and attack them, a figure descended from high altitude, showed up before Wang Jian and his men.

Wang Jian and his men froze at the sight of that figure.

That was a female zombie, tall and slim. The weather was cold, but she was only wearing a thin suit. Her white shirt was tucked in her pants, her straight and long legs wrapped in a pair of black tight suit pants; her feet wore a pair of loafers.

The clothing made her look even taller and slimmer.

Her face was clean and pale, her eyes purely black, surrounded by standard zombie dark circles, with a green light in the pupils.

She was a zombie leader.

Based on the light in her eyes, Wang Jian and his people figured out her zombie level.

Zombie number five glanced at Wang Jian’s car, then tilted her head and looked at the trucks behind his car. After that, she abruptly moved to the roadside, turned her body, and then waved at the zombie crowd.

“Roar!”

As the zombie lady raised an arm and roared at the zombie crowd, the zombies that were jamming the road started moving toward both sides.

Watching that, Wang Jian and his people were utterly confused. They looked at the zombie lady who was standing by the roadside, then at the zombie crowd which had cleared the way.

After spending a few seconds watching, the man beside Wang Jian started talking with disbelief, “Is she… letting us through? Or… will she block the way behind us? Is the new base really here? Boss, is there a chance that we made a mistake?”

Hearing his words, Wang Jian immediately came back to his senses. He carefully observed the zombie leader and found her clothes clean and face expressionless, not as ferocious as the other zombies.

Based on the information he had, the new base was located in that area indeed.

Wang Jian thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, “We are not in the wrong place. But now… we need to do some research and find out what’s going on here.”

“Roar…” As Wang Jian was staring at the zombie lady and the other zombies, trying to figure out something, the zombie lady frowned slightly, then impatiently waved a hand toward the road which was now zombie-free.

That was like a movement that normal people would make. Clearly, she wanted the group of people to move through.

Wang Jian and his people were stunned again, and so were Li Honglin and the others.

“Is… is she telling us to get through?” A man by Wang Jian’s side asked with surprise and doubts.

Wang Jian looked at the zombie lady, then at the zombie crowd which had moved away from the road. He wasn’t sure what he should do either. After brief thinking, he made the decision.

“I’ll go first. Follow me if nothing happens to me when I get to the other side,” he said.

“No! It’s too dangerous! If someone has to do that, it should be me! Boss, you’re our boss now! Nothing can happen to you! Over a thousand people are under your protection now. What would they do if you die?” Huang Tiange who had been following Wang Jian the whole time immediately stopped him and said determinedly.

“I’ll go! If something happens to me, you guys will take good care of them. I trust you!” Wang Jian pressed his hands on Huang Tiange’s shoulders as he looked at his eyes and said.

“Let me do it! Boss!” Huang Tiange begged him with a crying face.

“No! Stay here! That’s an order!” Wang Jian tightened his face and pushed Huang Tiange to the side. After saying that, he began walking toward the road which had no zombies now with big steps.

Wang Jian acted bravely and fearlessly, but in fact, he wasn’t so

“Roar!”

The zombie lady walked up to her and waved a hand toward the road with impatience, to signal for him to move faster. Zombie number five felt really helpless at that moment. If her boss Mengmeng didn’t order her not to use violence on those people, in case they got scared, she would have driven them in with a whip!

Sensing the zombie lady’s impatience, Wang Jian paused briefly, then walked in with a weird look. The impatient look on the zombie’s face distracted him, and somehow made him relax a little.

He gathered his courage and walked to the middle of the road which had zombies on both sides, then found that the zombies surrounding him stayed motionless. Suddenly, he recalled that when the other Hades Base people had followed Duan Juan and that strange lady to the new base, they went through a zombie path outside the Hades Base as well!

Thinking about that, he figured something out. He stopped moving, then turned and waved at the people who were about three-hundred meters behind him.

“Come on! Come over here! Move!”
