Face-Slapping the Original Leaders of the Military Base (Apocalypse)
“Let’s go.”
Zhou Xu had always been very mild, so his teammates had a good impression of him.
The wholesale market in Lin City was not too far away. It took about two hours to drive there, and right now, it was almost nine o’clock.
Zhou Xu asked Song Jun, “Is there a map?”
“Yes, but we are not the captains. Why do you have to look at it? We just need to follow them.”
Zhou Xu smiled and answered, “I wanted to be sure of something so I can feel more at ease.”
Faced with Zhou Xu’s warm and gentle smile, Song Jun also smiled and said, “Zhou Xu, I like you very much. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can find me.”
Looking at Song Jun’s face covered with acne, Zhou Xu smiled more tenderly. “Thank you, Song Ge.”
Somehow or the other, Song Jun felt his face suddenly burn a little. Zhou Xu looked so beautiful when he smiled. It was like a refreshing spring falling on his hot skin, which eliminated his impulsiveness and anxiety.
Looking at the map carefully, Zhou Xu’s eyebrows wrinkled slightly. He thought that the wholesale market was just a large warehouse. Now, it seems that the wholesale market was basically the same size as half of the city. Besides, there were not only clothing in stock, but there were also shoes and hats area in the west, luggage area in the south, cosmetics in the southeast, small commodities in the east, and a toy mall in the north.
The clothing wholesale area they were going to was basically surrounded by all kinds of wholesale areas, but it was fortunate that the place was large, which meant that it would not be very crowded. Each wholesale city had a distance of about 500 meters between each wholesale area.
“Zhou Xu, try the walkie-talkie. It would be bad if the walkie-talkie was broken.” Song Jun said, also trying his walkie-talkie.
“Okay, thank you.” Zhou Xu debugged it and confirmed that there was no problem.
Just after debugging it, Zhou Xu heard a sentence coming from his receiver, “Let’s go to Beimen. Everyone follow my car.”
“Got it.” Song Jun answered.
Turning off the walkie-talkie, Song Jun laughed and said, “Although Ding Zhaoyu came late, I still obeyed his orders. Thanks to him, our mission was accomplished so smoothly last time.”
Zhou Xu smiled and did not answer, because he had been thinking about the map. Although this mission was a simple D-level task and it was said that there were no zombies, Zhou Xu still felt that he couldn’t relax. After all, the buildings here were too complex. There was a certain distance between the wholesale areas, so if there was danger, the base might not know about it.
“Get out of the car.” Ding Zhaoyu ordered on the walkie-talkie.
Everyone got out of the car. Xia Qingfeng’s team went to another entrance. After all, men’s and children’s clothes were in the south, so they really didn’t need to come to the north’s main entrance.
The grey sky made people feel a little depressed. Zhou Xu’s mind was not free from anxiety. He had a tightly stretched string in his heart. From his experience of dying a hundred times, he was almost certain that there was potential danger around him.
Two people stayed behind to watch the car, while the other eight followed Ding Zhaoyu’s instructions and marched to the entrance.
Ding Zhaoyu was a fire power, but his strength was not very pure. Fortunately, he paid great attention to practice, so his ability was not bad. Tang Wanxin was also a water power, but unfortunately, her abilities are too weak. The others were earth, metal, wood and electricity powers.
One of the two people who stayed to watch the car had a healing power.
Their team was a standard team. The problem at hand now was how to smoothly get the materials.
“Follow me, don’t separate. Let’s explore the way first, and then search for supplies.” Ding Zhaoyu’s voice was still straightforward and his tone was similar to that of an instructor, but this tone of voice could easily made people feel dependent.
Zhou Xu also admitted that Ding Zhaoyu, as a protagonist, was capable, but unfortunately his ability was much worse than his (Zhou Xu).
As soon as they entered, Zhou Xu sensed that there were not only zombies, but also enemies in this wholesale area.
Zombies were generally unconscious, but those who can manipulate them were absolutely conscious.
Did a third-class zombie appear? Zhou Xu thought.
After setting his doubts aside, Zhou Xu followed the team. They first entered the main street of the mall. There were various stalls on both sides of the main road, and under the stalls were rows of cabinets. Those cabinets were used for storing samples and there might be some stock in the cabinets.
A member of the team wanted to open one of the cabinets as they passed by, but Ding Zhaoyu reproached him, saying, “We need to check this place out first and then we’ll take the materials. Don’t act rashly.”
The team member quickly hurried back to the group. Ding Zhaoyu said in a low voice, “Even though this is a D-level task, we still shouldn’t take it lightly.”
They continued to move forward, and then they came upon some paths. A few people walked around together and encountered three or four zombies. After they were all eliminated, Ding Zhaoyu said with a sigh of relief, “Okay, get into groups of two and go and look for clothes. If you find cloth and other goods, take them with you too.”
“Yes.”
Zhou Xu and Song Jun gathered materials quickly, but Zhou Xu’s unease began to grow. He had already became aware of a murderous aura, and this feeling even made Zhou Xu feel cold.
The first wave of supplies was ready, so Song Jun was going to go back and continue gathering. Zhou Xu grabbed his hand and said, “Wait a minute.”
Song Jun looked at him doubtfully and Zhou Xu frowned.
A sharp whistle sounded, and Zhou Xu was shocked. “Dammit!”
Zhou Xu’s nervousness infected Song Jun. “What’s wrong?”
“Song Jun, go and inform your teammates that we need to hurry up. We are surrounded, go quickly.” After Zhou Xu finished, he rushed to Ding Zhaoyu without waiting for Song Jun’s reaction.
“Can your walkie-talkie connect with Xia Qingfeng?”
“Yes, but you…” Ding Zhaoyu wanted to ask why, but the walkie-talkie had already been taken away by Zhou Xu.
“Hello, Xia Qingfeng, go quickly, hurry up!”
Zhou Xu was in a hurry. It took several seconds for Xia Qingfeng to reply, “I am.”
“You take the team away and retreat. We are surrounded, and there’s a third-class zombie. He will summon more zombies.”
“Who are you?”
Zhou Xu was irritated by the man’s calmness, or perhaps his thickheadedness. “Why do you care about who I am? If I’m wrong, I’ll kneel down for you. Hurry up and run fast.”
“…” There was another silence for a few seconds. Zhou Xu felt that he was going to vomit blood. As a result, the man replied, “There’s a third-class zombie? I’ve killed two. If you’re still there, come and join us. I can handle third-class zombies.”
What the fuck! Zhou Xu only had this sentence left in his heart. He really was the God of War. The whole power system had not been completely developed yet, but he could still kill third-class zombies.
Zhou Xu’s throat knot moved slightly. Zhou Xu turned back to Ding Zhaoyu and said, “Let’s go and join Xia Qingfeng.”
Ding Zhaoyu did not believe Zhou Xu’s words and asked, “How do you know there’s a third-class zombie?”
Zhou Xu didn’t even look at Ding Zhaoyu. He said to the team running towards the car, “Don’t run away, let’s go to Xia Qingfeng.”
Some stopped, some continued to run, and the rest hesitated. “Third-class zombie or not, we should run.”
“If you want to join Xia Qingfeng, just come with me.”
After that, Zhou Xu turned around and began to run south, and the whistle behind him became more and more sharp, which meant that the third class zombie was getting closer and closer.
Ding Zhaoyu was also skeptical, but the whistle was too frightening. In this dim space, it seemed even more terrible.
Before he could think about it, Ding Zhaoyu ran south with Zhou Xu.
After Ding Zhaoyu started running, the others followed him.
Soon, Zhou Xu arrived at the men’s wear area. After a turn, he finally met with Xia Qingfeng’s crew. As a result, before he even got closer, he heard Xia Qingfeng’s cold words, “Come for protection?”
Zhou Xu’s original desire to repay a debt of gratitude disappeared in an instant. He smiled and answered, “No, we’ve come to seek cooperation.”
