Chapter 28 - Chapter 25.2

Face-Slapping the Original Leaders of the Military Base (Apocalypse)

Xia Qingfeng looked at the closed door, felt his tied hands and feet again, and finally, he gazed at the ceiling and smiled slowly.

This Zhou Xu was truly a treasure. No matter what he did, Xia Qingfeng still loved him to death.

Their first time ended as a joke. In fact, after Zhou Xu left, he actually regretted it, because he was actually feeling it too and but had to endure. This method seemed to hurt the enemy a thousand times but hurt himself 800 times

After this incident, they had no time to contact each other again, because the next day, they were informed that Yin Yun had appeared with the red-clothed zombie, along with hundreds of zombies.

There was no time for children to grow up. The emergence of the zombie tide caused the nerves of everyone at Chaoyang Base to be stretched taut.

The base was only a little bit stable and so couldn't bear such a blow. Therefore, the base's plan was that even if they had to have all the powers go out to fight, the wave of zombies must be extinguished, even at the cost of powers losing their lives.

Zhou Xu and Xia Qingfeng were upstairs looking at the dense group of zombies. Zhou Xu was a little apprehensive, but when he turned around, he saw Xia Qingfeng's expression. Was that excitement?

Yes, Xia Qingfeng had always been a militant, but he typically exercised a lot of restraint when he was in Zhou Xu's presence.

Hooking his lips, Zhou Xu thought that it didn't matter if he was a militant or not. Even if he was guilty of terrible crimes, he (XQ) could be his lover as long as he (XQ) was good to him.

All the powers had gathered, and the authority to command was bestowed onto Xia Qingfeng.

Xia Qingfeng was originally not supposed to be the one to take command, but several of his superiors had ordinary abilities, so they gave up their turn to "someone more qualified". It was absolutely not because they were greedy for life and feared death.

If Xia Qingfeng was by himself, he might refuse, because he just wanted to kill the zombies, but now he had Zhou Xu. He couldn't be satisfied with just being a power. He wanted to give Zhou Xu a better life, so he must raise his position in the base.

The dense mass of zombies moved forward slowly, as if the army was being kept under control. The scene was very spectacular. Xia Qingfeng divided all the powers into groups. First, a group of strong powers, then an ordinary one, then a strong one, and then an ordinary one. When the rows were arranged like this, it should allow the powers to not consume too much energy and prevent confusion after being mind-controlled by psychic zombies.

In fact, the situation with the zombies with psychic abilities was the most troublesome. They couldn't use military weapons because if the people who used the weapons were mind-controlled, then a bomb would be thrown at their own team, and the battle would be basically over.

Fortunately, Xia Qingfeng understood the situation, so his explanation was very clear. If someone was mind-controlled, the wooden powers were to immediately tie the person up so that they were set rigidly in place and couldn't move at all. It's thought that the mind-controlled powers couldn't access their abilities and were just puppets who attacked randomly.

The base's city gate couldn't be continuously defended, so Xia Qingfeng simply issued an order. "Go out to fight."

After all, sometimes the best defense was offense, and in this case, if the zombies came in, the base would suffer heavy casualties, because there were many civilians who had no powers inside.

On the open land, the powers and the corpses approached each other slowly. Zhou Xu could feel that there seemed to be someone behind the zombies, controlling them. He saw a glimpse of the red-clothed zombie. Zhou Xu thought that there might be another trick he could use.

Yin Yun was sitting beside the zombie in red clothes. His head was lowered so that his expression couldn't be seen clearly. He remained motionless, as if he were a statue. Only when the zombie in red moved would he move.

Zhou Xu's eyes were very good. From a long distance, he kept staring at Yin Yun's expression until a moment later, Zhou Xu was confident that he had met Yin Yun's eyes. Although it was short to the point that it could easily be overlooked, Zhou Xu knew that Yin Yun was just pretending to be controlled.

A plan was quickly calculated in his mind. There should be only one reason Yin Yun pretended to be under control, which was the zombie in red was not his enemy.

But why didn't the zombie in red turn Yin Yun into a zombie? If Yin Yun was a zombie, then Yin Yun would be more obedient to him.

With a corner of his mouth hooked, Zhou Xu had a guess about something.

Paranoia was also a sin. This sin could annihilate human nature, and it could also make people stick to such a bottom line in the human nature of annihilation.

Yin Yun didn't expect that when he glanced around to look at the current situation, his eyes would meet Zhou Xu's. But this should be a good thing. After all, with Zhou Xu's cleverness, he should be able to guess his situation, but what should he do now? Yuan Ke was controlling his power so he couldn't use it. Now he could only hope for Zhou Xu.

He didn't dare to look up. He looked at Yuan Ke's feet and did not move for a long time.

Yin Yun's character was originally very weak, but after being hurt again and again, he finally learned to be strong. He was staunch and strong but never had a bad heart.

Yuan Ke had been his boss before he turned into a zombie. Yuan Ke was a boss who always used all kinds of methods to find faults with Yin Yun. But when the apocalypse came, Yuan Ke, who had turned into a zombie, had dragged Yin Yun towards him with the intent of biting him. But, when Yuan Ke's teeth touched Yin Yun's neck, he didn't bite down.

Yin Yun was pushed away by the zombie Yuan Ke. He heard Yuan Ke say in a hoarse voice, "Run…"

At this point, Yin Yun realized that all those times Yuan Ke "found fault" with him was because Yuan Ke was simply too stupid and din't know how to express his love.

In fact, the last time Yuan Ke used his psychic power to control him, he (YY) could have resisted, because he (YY) had wooden powers and at the same time, very weak psychic powers. But he didn't use them because he wanted to know what Yuan Ke was doing.

The result was that Yuan Ke did nothing. He rigidly cooked for Yin Yun, rigidly fed Yin Yun, rigidly embraced Yin Yun, and rigidly wanted to kiss him, but he didn't kiss him in the end.

At that moment, Yuan Ke did not notice that the glittering tear that fell from Yin Yun's eyes.

Before, he could love, but he didn't understand love.

Now, Yin Yun found that they could no longer love each other, because one was a man and the other was the zombie emperor.

Yin Yun was right and Yuan Ke was right too, but they had different positions. Both sides were two parties that couldn't coexist.

Yuan Ke launched his psychic power. Some of the powers began to crazily slaughter their companions. It was impossible to have no casualties. Under the command of Xia Qingfeng however, the casualties were very small.

The murmur of the zombies, the voices of the powers, and the groans of the wounded made the war sound terrible.

The people in the base held their hands tightly. They could imagine how fierce the battle was outside and appreciated the efforts of all the powers, but they could do nothing else but pray that everything would pass quickly, including this crazy apocalypse.

Zhou Xu took advantage of the chaos and slipped forward slowly. A stream of water flew forward almost invisibly until it was in front of Yin Yun.

The stream of water instantly turned into an icicle. Yin used his psychic power to thoroughly get rid of Yuan Ke's control over his own mind. His body leaped up and suddenly hit Yuan Ke's face.

There was a sudden change in the situation.

Yuan Ke's face was injured but at the same time, he kept Yin Yun under control. The zombies became confused and disordered because they suddenly lost their leadership. Xia Qingfeng took this opportunity to directly have all the powers launch a mass attack. Yuan Ke seemed to have completely forgotten about the corpses he brought. He silently looked in dismay at Yin Yun, who couldn't move and was under his control.

The voice was still hoarse. This was because becoming a zombie affected his voice. Yuan Ke said, "You want to kill me?"

Yin Yun's body was set rigidly in place. He struggled, but it was useless. At the moment, he gave up struggling and looked directly at Yuan Ke. Yin Yun said, "My parents are still at the base. You and I are enemies after all."

Silence.

Yuan Ke's red eyes suddenly closed and he made a decision. His hands abruptly tightened and Yin Yun immediately cried out in pain.

Tears fell. Yin Yun knew all of his life that this probably would have been the case. He didn't know if he loved Yuan Ke, but if he could come back, he wouldn't let Yuan Ke be disappointed. He would treat him well and let him know that he really liked being with him.

Yin Yun's face began to turn purple. Yuan Ke opened his eyes and closed them again.

A flash of water swiftly made its way over, and Yin Yun was rescued, and in a sudden clap of thunder, Yuan Ke was cut and injured by lightning.

Yuan Ke's cruel laugh sounded, making people's hair stand on end.

Zhou Xu had Xia Qingfeng support Yin Yun, and he (ZX) approached, seemingly not afraid of Yuan Ke, the zombie emperor.

"Do you love Yin Yun?"

Yuan Ke stretched out his hand to attack Zhou Xu. As a result, Zhou Xu immediately created a water shield. Yuan Ke just continued to attack. In the end, he heard Zhou Xu say, "I can make you human."

Yuan Ke was stunned. He dropped his outstretched hand and stiffly took a step back. "What did you say?"

Zhou Xu withdrew his water shield, looked at Yuan Ke, and repeated, "I can change you back into a person, but give me time."

Yuan Ke stood still for a long time, but Xia Qingfeng behind Zhou Xu didn't seem to have any doubts about Zhou Xu's words, as if he had just said that "hens lay eggs" was common sense. Only Yin Yun had a big mouth and a look of disbelief.

"How long?" Yuan Ke's voice was still hoarse, but Zhou Xu could hear the tremor and expectation in his voice.

Yuan Ke's face had long since changed from the normal person's appearance. He was really as pale as paper and his pupils had already turned red. His face was thin and reduced to a shadow, the same as being all skin and bones.

Zhou Xu was not a saint, nor did he mean to save Yuan Ke. He was negotiating with Yuan Ke, because after the first wave of zombies, they might face a zombie siege. If that happened, the number of zombies might be dozens of times more than they were now. If that were the case, the whole base would be completely destroyed.

However, Zhou Xu wasn't planning on misleading people, because he himself was an example. He was bitten by a zombie, but did not die. Instead, he became a power. This meant that there must be a way to deal with the body transformation after being bitten by a zombie.

"You," Yuan Ke said, looking at Yin Yun who was behind Zhou Xu, "wait for me."

Yin Yun looked at Yuan Ke and nodded.

Yuan Ke left, but after a few steps, he came back again. He looked at Yin Yun deeply and said, "If you don't wait for me, I will destroy the base."
