Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse

Chapter 229: Chapter Two Hundred and Twenty-Nine: Not a Scratch

No, it was a complete overwhelming!

The Speed Element Zombie that lost a leg could no longer stand up; it could only continue to reach for Mao Qiqi with its two arms.

Mao Qiqi wanted to stab its head directly with the Watermelon Knife, but its swiftly swinging arms prevented her from finding an opportunity.

“Tsk, nuisance.”

Mao Qiqi simply chopped off the zombie’s two arms as well!

“That’s so cruel…”

Some people in the car, for some reason, felt some sympathy for the brutally abused Mutated Zombie.

Puchi!

The Watermelon Knife finally plunged into the head of that Speed Element Zombie, and the young girl crouched down and stabbed it over and over again until she pried out a Crystal Core with the tip of her knife and stood up with a smile.

“Auntie, help me clean this.”

Mao Qiqi hopped and skipped over to Huang Yunxiang and said.

“Just put it on the ground for now, I’ll wash them all together later.”

Huang Yunxiang, while cutting towards a zombie that Su Xiangzhe had paralyzed, said.

Because people were constantly bringing Crystal Cores for her to clean, she simply let them drop them on the ground beside her, planning to wash them all at once later.

“Oh”

Upon hearing that, Mao Qiqi threw the Crystal Core onto the ground and bounced off to chop zombies again…

The people on the truck swallowed hard as they looked at the pile of dirty Crystal Cores on the ground.

Those were Crystal Cores!

They were actually thrown on the ground so carelessly!

But since no one dared to go down, they could only watch the pile of Crystal Cores on the ground and sigh, not daring to snatch them.

Besides the young girl, there were a few men who looked tough and were extremely ferocious.

One of them even floated in the air and then waved his hand to send a Wind Blade toward the head of a zombie below.

Su Jin looked at Nie Qing, who was trying to appear composed, and almost wanted to laugh. If she had known, she would have made him wear a wide-sleeved Hanfu today; that would have made him look even more like a cultivator.

Lu Guanhai’s Fire Element Ability was far inferior to Lu Hao’s, but in the eyes of others, it was already quite impressive.

Moreover, he did not solely rely on the Fire Element to attack. When a zombie got close, he would directly cut it with the Watermelon Knife, which seemed to be faster than using his Fire Element.

The members of the Guard Squad sitting in the truck were so engrossed in watching that they temporarily forgot to attack. They realized that aside from using their Special Abilities, these people also had exceptional close combat skills. Even if zombies approached them, they did not show any signs of panic!

In fact, Su Jin had noticed this about the Guard Squad, which is why she didn’t ask them to come down and help. She thought their effectiveness attacking from the truck was the same as coming down to attack.

If that was the case, it was better to let them stay hidden and attack from the shadows, which was even safer.

A Water Element Mutated Zombie launched an attack at Lin Xiuyuan; although Water and Ice Elements were of the same category, the Water Element was obviously weaker than the Ice Element. The Water Arrows shot by the Water Element Zombie were all frozen into ice blocks by Lin Xiuyuan and fell to the ground.

“Your attacks seem ineffective against me, brother,” Lin Xiuyuan said to the Water Element Zombie.

“Let’s make it quick.”

An afterimage ran past Lin Xiuyuan towards a Power Element Zombie that was forcefully kicking a bus!

“Alright, brother-in-law.”

Lin Xiuyuan no longer continued to share a moment with the “brother” in front of him and directly stabbed the Water Element Zombie’s temple with Ice Spikes.

“Captain Lu, Captain Lu, could you please leave this friend to me?”

Liao Yifan, who arrived shortly after, pleaded. She had finally encountered a Power Element zombie of the same type, only for Lu Hao to beat her to it.

The Mutated Power Element Zombie, which had just been hit by Lu Hao’s Fireball, had swiftly gotten up and was now reaching out towards Liao Yifan!

“Alright? Alright? Captain Lu, you go help Su Jin,” she said as she kicked the Mutated Zombie away and continued to plead.

The survivors inside the bus: …

Lu Hao clicked his tongue and walked away. He looked over at Su Jin, who was having a grand time stabbing zombies with wooden spikes on the withered grass.

So, with no more zombies to chop, Lu Hao had no choice but to start harvesting Crystal Cores to save time.

The Wind Element Mutated Zombie that Xue Wanyi faced had also been taken care of by him, the sense of relief coursing through him made him feel like his vigorous spirit had returned.

The survivors on the bus were now slowly sitting down.

The zombies outside had been almost completely dealt with by those people, and now each bus driver was lining up, ready to depart. It was very quiet on each bus because they all felt that only those people outside were the ones truly equipped to survive in the Apocalypse.

As for them, still worrying about meals every day and running at the mere sight of zombies, they would someday be eliminated by this cruel world…

If possible,

they too wanted to take up arms like those people outside and chop down those ugly things.

They also didn’t want to be cowards who could only cower and shrink away…

The convoy slowly made its way towards the base, and more zombies kept following them. Lin Xiuyuan had Su Xiangzhe roll down the window, releasing his unworn Special Ability outside, and others quickly followed suit.

The journey was exceedingly lively; even the Guard Squad Members inside the trucks couldn’t help crowding at the back, using their Special Abilities on the pursuing zombies.

The base had received good news for three consecutive days.

Today marked the day with the highest number of survivors transferred, yet not a single person was injured!

Even the members of the Guard Squad were completely unharmed!

The people at the base were astounded.

What’s going on?! Are there no more zombies outside? Or have the numbers dwindled to the extent that humans can move freely without obstruction?

Why had their return been so smooth?

The ones puzzled by this question were mostly survivors from the earlier batches. Those who were escorted back by Su Jin and Lu Hao understood exactly what was happening.

That girl and that man as a team were like the strongest shield on this journey.

No wonder the current Base Leader was willing to pay a high price for their services…

At the entrance, Liang Jiuqing took the temperatures of Su Jin’s group and then let the two vehicles pass through. She knew Su Jin and Lu Hao did not want to linger there.

Most of the survivors arriving with them were dazzled by the seven or eight-meter-high city walls, and walking through the gate into the interior was even more astonishing.

This base’s city wall…

How thick is it?!

Moving on, they reached the base of the city wall.

It was the break time for those involved in the wall construction. Each of them had a soda in hand, chatting and laughing. Sometimes they would even greet the new survivors passing by with a smile.

The builders all seemed to be in good spirits, nothing like the withered feeling of those in refuges who lived without sunlight day in and day out. Those who had previously scorned the idea of coming to the base to help with construction now felt deep regret upon seeing this.

After all, they had reached an era where those who don’t work hard would be eliminated…
