The Last Rock Emperor - Chapter 72

Chapter 72 Thorned Snake Attack
In an ordinary hotel in LY County.

In a room on the third floor, a plain-clothed man with a somewhat mature appearance stood by the window. Not far behind him, there was a plain-clothed man standing.

The plain-clothed man said, “Captain, we’ve found the whereabouts of their team.”

“Zhu Yeqing, did you discover Zhu Yifan so quickly?”

“No, but the second-in-command of his small team showed up. They didn’t show much strength. They were hunting zombies with the weapons they snatched from Company Commander Sun.” Zhu Yeqing was the code name of this plain-clothed man, and it was him who was speaking at this moment.

Old Cheng said contemptuously, “If that’s the case, then it’s Commander Sun who lied about his military intelligence to cover up his incompetence? What a piece of trash!”

Then he thought, “Follow behind them now and keep an eye on their every move. Don’t get caught. I’ll immediately inform all the members that we’re going to take them down at once.”

Zhu Yeqing said disdainfully, “Captain, don’t worry. If they want to find out that I still have to train for another hundred or eighty years, then I’ll go first.”

“Zhu Yeqing, don’t underestimate anyone. The world has changed. In the past, with our excellent military counselor’s quality and skills, such a team of college students could be crushed without any effort.”

‘”But now, they are evolvers. Lions fight rabbits and use their full strength. This is the first mission of our squad. It concerns our squad’s position in the Zhou Clan in the future, so this mission must not be lost. Do you understand?”

Only then did the plain-clothed man say seriously, “Understood, Captain!” After saying that, he walked out of the room.

On a street near LY County Hospital.

At this time, the streets once again surged with corpses. Eyeglasses, Zhou Xin, Song Yiyi, Zhang Liang, Wang Yang, and the others led the group to fight with the zombies on the streets. At this time, there were less than a hundred zombies on the streets, but there were more than a thousand corpses on the ground.

Eyeglasses and the others still split up the zombies that were chasing after them and exterminated them in two parts. This time, it took more than an hour, and their ammunition was almost used.

Next, if they wanted to kill the zombies again, it wouldn’t be that simple. They had to fight the zombies head-on.

This would be a real test for the rookies.

The last zombie fell to the ground. Eyeglasses shouted, “Hurry up and clean up the crystal core. Although this place is a few blocks away from the hospital, Eyeglasses is still worried about alarming the zombies. Fighting against these small-scale zombies in the city is done quickly and without delay.”

Very quickly, everyone packed up their crystal cores and prepared to leave the block quickly. Zhou Xin looked at the top floor of a building with some confusion, but he didn’t say anything. Everyone had been fighting hard for more than two hours now. It was already 10 o’clock, and their stamina had also been exhausted.

Eyeglasses brought everyone to a small supermarket and went straight in. After rummaging around, they found some messy food and drinks. Eyeglasses picked up a bottle of grape juice and opened the lid to drink a few mouthfuls of it. “Come in. There’s still some food here. Everyone, eat whatever you want. Don’t be so polite with me.”

Everyone walked in, but there was still a person outside. Glasses glanced at him, and it was Zhou Xin.

He casually picked up another bottle of cola and walked out to ask, “Zhou Xin, is there anything wrong?” And threw the cola at Zhou Xin.

Zhou Xin caught Cola and said with some seriousness, “En, glasses, we seem to have been followed. Along the way, I have already seen the same person on different top floors. Three times, and the last two times I was very cautious. Only the first time I obviously didn’t expect to see him, he swaggered around looking at us with military binoculars.”

Eyeglasses said with a gloomy expression, “Well, three times, it can’t be a coincidence. Is there anything special about that person?”

Zhou Xin: “Nothing special, looks very ordinary, but there is a snake-shaped tattoo on the back of the neck, looks like he is not an ordinary person, very capable.”

Eyeglasses revealed a thoughtful expression and said, “He didn’t approach. He was just observing. He might be from the military. Last time, Yifan told Company Commander Sun to inform the military about our joining the military. Now, we don’t know if the other party is an enemy or a friend. Let’s hold back for the time being. Watch his actions.”

Zhou Xin opened the cola and drank two mouthfuls of it. “Alright, I also feel that that person should be a soldier. Furthermore, it is very likely that he is not an ordinary soldier. If it weren’t for my eyes the next two times, an ordinary person would definitely not have noticed him.”

Eyeglasses said, “Go in and find something to eat. Eat as much as you can. We can’t take it away anyway.”

Zhou Xin nodded and walked in. His glasses narrowed as he looked at the tall buildings around him. With his eyesight, it was impossible for him to discover anything. A moment later, he also entered the small supermarket.

On the top floor of a ten-story building.

The plain-clothed man appeared again. He felt that his caution was somewhat ridiculous. How could the other party discover him? The captain was too cautious.

Every time, he was at least one to two kilometers away from them. Even if they were evolvers, and apart from the first time he observed them, he didn’t have any cover around him. In the last two observations, he only revealed half of his head.

However, he didn’t know that because of his imprudent observation for the first time, there weren’t only one person who discovered him, but two. One of them was quietly looking at him not far away from him.

Fei Na had been assigned a protection team by Yifan, so she had to control the situation around the team. When she discovered that Eyeglasses and the others were using guns to kill the zombies, there would be no danger for the time being. She climbed to the top of a high-rise building and began to patrol the surroundings. This way, she could quickly grasp the situation around the team.

However, this gave him an unexpected harvest. She saw a reflection on a building not too far away from her. At that time, she did not care, but she did not feel completely at ease. Afterwards, when Eyeglasses and the others used guns to kill the zombies, she once again climbed to the top floor of a building. This time, she was sure that someone was observing their team.

When Eyeglasses and the others finished the battle and walked towards the small supermarket, she decided to take a look. At this time, she was already very close to the man. She was less than five meters behind him. Seeing him carefully looking at Eyeglasses and the others’ group, she still did not show up.

Right at this moment, the personal communicator on that person’s body sounded.

“Zhu Yeqing, how’s your surveillance?”

Zhu Yeqing knelt beside the wall and took out his military binoculars to look at the supermarket they entered. “Captain, they are all resting in a small supermarket on Bin Wenlu.”

“Alright, continue to monitor them. It’s best to find the hiding places of the rest of them. I will lead the team and wait for news of you at any time. If necessary, I will attack decisively and finish this mission in one go.”

Zhu Yeqing: I see. Captain, don’t worry. I will keep an eye on them.

“The call is temporarily over.”

Fina sighed in her heart after hearing this. It seemed that she was spying on them. She had to tell her glasses this news as soon as possible. Otherwise, it would be too dangerous. The enemy was in the dark and we were in the open. This person seemed to be a spy. If she killed him now, she would alert the other party.

After discussing with Eyeglasses and the others, he decided that he would definitely be observing from the side of the building nearby. If he wanted to kill him, he wouldn’t be in a hurry at this moment.

Fei Na quietly left. He exploded as fast as he could along the way. In just a few minutes, he arrived at the supermarket where Eyeglasses and the others were. At this moment, Eyeglasses and the others were about to leave.

A person suddenly appeared behind the crowd. Fei Na’s appearance frightened the new members half to death, and some even cried out in alarm.

Fei Na said, “Nian Chen, Zhou Xin, come in.”

Eyeglasses and Zhou Xin weren’t surprised. They both knew that something must have happened, otherwise Fei Na wouldn’t have appeared casually.

“Fei Na, what’s wrong?” Eyeglasses said immediately.

Fei Na said seriously, “Nian Chen, Zhou Xin, we are being monitored. Right now, about a kilometer behind us, someone is monitoring us. These people should be our enemies.”

Zhou Xin said, “I told Eyeglasses about this. Is there a poisonous snake tattoo on that person’s neck? How can you be sure that they are enemies?”

Fei Na nodded and said, “There are tattoos. Without his knowledge, I heard them communicating with each other using their personal communicator. I vaguely heard the opposite party say that they wanted to catch me in one go.”

Eyeglasses thought, “If that’s the case, we need to react quickly. Otherwise, we’ll be in a passive position. We need to find them first, and then we need to notify Yi Fan with our personal communicator.”

Fei Na said, “Eyeglasses, bring all your team members to the tunnel entrance and let them return to the warehouse area immediately. I can sense that our opponent is not a simple character. They are also a small team. The scout just now is a Second Grade Evolution. I will continue to track them down in the opposite direction.”

Zhou Xin said, “If you want to pull them out, glasses, the two of us are the best bait.”

Eyeglasses finally clapped his hands and said, “Alright, then it’s settled. Fei Na, you’ll notify Yifan.”

Zhu Yeqing closely monitored the supermarket’s every move. He saw Nian Chen and the others purposefully walking towards a certain place. It was not like when they started killing zombies, they only ran far away from the hospital. Furthermore, their speed this time wasn’t very fast, so he immediately moved along with them.

More than 20 minutes later, he changed several buildings and finally saw Nian Chen and the others enter a clothing store. Moreover, five minutes had passed since they entered this time.

Only then did Zhu Yeqing see Nian Chen come out again. However, this time, only Nian Chen and the man with the bow on his back came out. It seemed like Zhou Xin from the information. Before the apocalypse, he had been able to shoot arrows accurately. It was a long-range attack. In that case, he would have to be dealt with first before the others could be killed at will.

This seemed to be their nest. Indeed, they were university students. They chose a nest so casually. This kind of opponent was really boring. Zhu Yeqing’s interest was somewhat dimmed.

“Eyeglasses and Zhou Xin are sitting at the entrance of the store smoking cigarettes. It seems that the two of them are still chatting.”

“Captain, I found their lair. They are all in the Jack’s clothing store on New Star Road.” Zhu Yeqing said to his ear,

“Is that so? Zhu Yeqing, you did a good job this time. After returning, I will apply for a crystal core for you to become the fourth Tier 3 of the Viper Squad.” On the other hand, he seemed to be a little happy.

Zhu Yeqing did not expect happiness to come so quickly. He said ecstatically, “Thank you, captain, I will definitely not let down the captain’s cultivation.”

Zhu Yeqing looked at Zhou Xin and Eyeglasses with disdain, and even showed a trace of pity in her eyes.

He had never thought of such a simple mission, and he was about to become the fourth Third Grade Evolution of the Thorned Snake Squad. This was simply a pleasant surprise.

Unfortunately, he did not know that a beautiful French girl standing beside him had also revealed a look of disdain towards him.

After communicating with Yi Fan, Fina’s eyes flashed with mockery, and the corners of her lips curled into a mocking smile.
