Riding on His Coattails and Surviving the Apocalypse - Chapter 100

Chapter 100 A Slap From Reality
At night, another part of the base was like a volcano that was about to erupt. Raging rage burned in everyone’s hearts. The leaders of the base clenched their fists and clenched their teeth. They waited for the people below to calculate the losses and the results of the investigation. Everyone sat in the conference room, but it was quiet inside. Only the sound of panting showed that the hearts of the people were not calm.

But everyone had to calm down. Right now, they needed to calm down and deal with everything that followed. Their base suffered a huge loss tonight. Most importantly, they didn’t know who did it. This made these big shots accustomed to having their eyes split open. All of the fish and shrimps they caught right now didn’t even have the chance to recover their losses. All of this made these big shots vomit blood endlessly. If they knew who did it and caught something, they would have to eat them alive and feed them to the zombies.

“Report.” A young man in military uniform walked into the meeting room and looked at the big shots who were about to eat him. This officer, who had been a soldier for more than ten years and was not afraid of the zombies, was a little scared at this moment, but when he thought of the investigation materials in his hands, he still bravely reported.

“Material warehouse there is nothing left, One-third of what was left in the quartermaster store was also lost, The people captured near the two warehouses were members of some units of the base, However, after interrogation, there are no clues. It seems that they were discovered by us before they entered the warehouse. Even those who managed to get in and out were captured on the spot. After checking their spaces, we found that the items did not match the amount stolen. We can be sure that someone obtained the materials in front of them, but the other party did not leave any clues. ” In other words, the base had been knocked down by someone and no one knew who had done it.

As he spoke, the faces of the big shots darkened. “Did the arsonist catch him?” Wang Ping asked. All of this was caused by the fire. Many people came out to take advantage of the fire because they saw the light of the fire. From this, it could be seen that the team that set the fire back then was the final winner.

“No one has. We have people guarding the two warehouses. No one noticed anything unusual. The fire was caused by a special ability, but the guards said they didn’t see anyone.” Everyone’s expressions were not good. Could it be that someone had awakened the dual abilities of Invisibility and Fire? However, there had never been an invisible ability in the base before.

“What about the Heaven Slaughter Squad?” If anyone in the base had the strength to accomplish what happened today, then it was obviously the Heaven Slaughter Squad. “This.” The officer was also a little confused. The Heaven Slaughter Squad didn’t need to mention the suspicions of these bigwigs. They all suspected it, so he did a thorough investigation. However, the result was that after thinking about it, that person still reported it truthfully.

“Our men have been in the vicinity of the Skyslaughter Squad lately, According to the person who reported it, it was indeed after the fire that Bai Yuli and the others came out of the Heaven Slaughter Squad. “Moreover, the main members of the squad have never left the quartermaster warehouse. The few spatial abilities have not made any special movements. The only question is that Ji Shitian and the woman named Lou Xiaoluo have not come out. However, our people saw the two of them show up at their residences in the Heaven Slaughter squad.” All the evidence suggests that this has nothing to do with the Sky Slaughter Squad.

“Heh, excluding our transfer, there are still nearly half of the total supplies left in that warehouse. Other than Shitian Squad, who else has the ability to eat this?” Qian Sen roared, “What about Zhao Qingtian and the others?” The others also stared at the person who reported, “They did have actions, but they were all releasing smoke bombs on the outskirts. At most, they were disrupting the order. There was no solid evidence.” That person’s voice was somewhat guilty. They had already worked hard, but too many people had interfered with their line of sight.

“Trash, a bunch of trash.” Qian Sen shouted, “Alright, what’s the use of dealing with them now? It’s better to think of a way to minimize the loss.” Wang Ping rubbed his forehead. “How long will it take for the rest of our supplies to be transferred? How long will it take for everyone to leave the base?” Ying Jie, the highest-ranking official of the al-Qaeda government asked.

Although Ying Jie was the representative of the Government, But he’s smart, Although they were competing for power and benefits with the military, they were all stepping on the bottom line of the military. Although the management of the base could not be entirely depended on the military, and many of the materials were in the hands of the government, this was still the end of the world. Whoever fought would listen to them. If they really angered the military, it would be useless. After all, they needed the military to deal with the zombies on the frontlines.

Ying Jie had been trying his best to enhance his own strength and mediate between them, and the results were very good. No one here was stupid. They knew that after this incident, the base could only barely maintain its calm. Their departure was imminent. It was a good opportunity for them to openly transfer the rest of the items in the warehouse.

Everyone discussed for a while and decided to start the transfer in five days. Ying Jie thought for a while and said, “Don’t let go of those captured people. Interrogate them one by one, and don’t worry about whether they say anything or not. Capture their squad in three days and seize the materials inside.”

Everyone’s eyes lit up. They understood what Ying Jie meant. It didn’t matter if there was any evidence. Anyway, they were leaving. They still cared about drawing more hate points. It was the most important thing to recover some losses. Although those teams weren’t very wealthy, no matter how small the mosquitoes were, they weren’t meat. However, although everyone agreed with Ying Jie’s words in their hearts, they still looked at Ying Jie meaningfully. Normally, they really underestimated him. At the critical moment, their brains were spinning really fast. They were truly non-toxic and non-husbands.

“What about Shitian Squad? Although there is no evidence, they must have done it.” Qian Sen’s eyes lit up and Ying Jie glared at him, “We want to leave with the least loss.”

“But they should have the most things in their hands.” Qian Sen was unreconciled. Wang Ping said, “Ji Shitian probably intends to leave the base as well. As long as we don’t provoke him, he won’t meddle. Otherwise, even if we win, it will be a tragic victory. Then think about the standard of living we’ll have when we go to other places.” Everyone remained silent and finally reached an agreement. In the next few days, the base was almost in chaos.

All the smart people were scheming, while the ordinary people were hiding. Although they did not understand what had happened, it was true that the base had taken over several civilian teams in succession. There were also many teams that were disbanded. Just as the smart people were almost ready to leave, the reality gave everyone a slap in the face.

The sudden earthquake dumbfounded everyone. Although the earthquake was about magnitude 6, its destructive power was still very limited. Because many people lived in bungalows, the casualties were not as severe as imagined. However, the roads outside collapsed a lot, and aftershocks continued. The temperature began to plummet, and the extreme cold weather took away not only the temperature but also the lives. This series of natural disasters blocked everyone’s footsteps and caught everyone off guard.

Fortunately, after more than a month, the temperature finally recovered. The roads outside were repaired by the Earth Element Adepts and could barely pass through. Unfortunately, after these two blows, more than half of the ordinary people of the base died. Some small teams were also disbanded one after another. Fortunately, the head of the base wanted to escape long ago. Otherwise, he would probably vomit blood in the face of this battered base.

Within the Heaven Slaughter Squad, Lou Xiaoluo, who had finally taken off her thick cotton clothes, did not look better. Because the Heaven Slaughter Squad was wealthy, they were doing well. However, as the natural environment became more unstable this time, it would become more serious in the future. They had to leave this place and settle down elsewhere. The situation on the road was even harder than they had expected.

Everyone knew that they were about to leave immediately. Unfortunately, none of them had expected that the zombies would not stop their footsteps. When everyone learned that the zombies were gathered to prepare for the siege, the zombies were about to arrive at the gate. Even Ji Shitian was stunned.

“How is that possible? In such a cold day, although the zombies will not be frozen to death, their mobility should have been lost. How could they approach the base?” Lou Xiaoluo said in surprise. Because everyone had this idea and it was too cold outside, no one went out to carry out the mission, so the base had not been on alert recently. This discovery was also a small group of zombies that everyone encountered accidentally while repairing the road. Because there should be no zombies in this area, it raised suspicions.

This phenomenon quickly attracted the attention of the base. After all, they did not want to be wrapped in dumplings by zombies. They did not expect the results of the investigation to cause people to tremble. According to time estimates, zombies would be able to surround the city in about a day.

Although the base wanted to conceal this information, because the people who could survive in the base were all smart people, the base did a favor to reveal this information and acted as if they wanted to live or die with the base. As for whether everyone believed it or not, that was another matter.

“Let’s go in this direction.” Ji Shitian pointed in a direction on the map and said, “The base definitely won’t be safe.” The main issue now is withdrawal, Since the zombies were able to come out of the siege on such a cold day, it meant that there must be a Zombie King among them. Even Lou Xiaoluo was speechless. Compared to her previous life, there was a great change. It seemed that the process had accelerated. Even the appearance of natural disasters was much earlier, let alone the speed at which the zombies evolved. Lou Xiaoluo looked at Ji Shitian. Could it be that this guy’s ability had improved too quickly? Was he afraid that he didn’t have any opponents to level up?
