The Sisters raise their hands. ” We have different opinions. The combat effectiveness of the ‘General’ may not be better than the ‘Turret’. The advantage of the ‘General’ is that it is the leader of all zombies. They are all under its command whether they are evolved or ordinary zombies. The direction of evolution for the ‘General’ is the brain, while the focus for the ‘Turret’ is firepower. Perhaps the ‘General’ is easier to deal with than the ‘Turret’.”
Wen Qingling shook his head and sighed, “The brain is a good thing. With it, things won’t be easy.”
Xiao Hen asked, “Do you have a plan to deal with it?”
Wen Qingling continued to shake his head. “It is entrenched in the city center and won’t come out. If we want to deal with it, we have to go to the city center. There must be many evolved zombies waiting for us there. Apart from rushing in, there is no other good way.”
Xiao Hen asked, “Are you planning to attack it directly?”
All four of them looked at him at the same time. “What else can we do?”
They wanted to be tactful, but being tactful with brainless zombies probably wouldn’t be as effective as being straightforward.
Xiao Hen fell silent for a moment. “Is there a chance of winning if we attack it directly?”
All four shook their heads at the same time. “Maybe not, maybe yes. It depends on our firepower.”
Blood Corpse and the sisters both looked at Wen Qingling. “We are betting on Lord Wen to win. If Lord Wen can defeat the ‘General’, we can help him clear out the evolved zombies.”
Xiao Hen was surprised. “Can you defeat the ‘General’?”
Wen Qingling’s expression was cold. “If I can, how could it have been so arrogant until now? Without my consent, it commanded my zombie minions to go out and work and even condoned the evolved zombies to eat people in my base. I must settle this account with it.”
Blood Corpse said, “You are very strong, but you haven’t realized it yourself.”
Wen Qingling replied, “I thank you for thinking so highly of me, but there’s no way you can inherit my South City!”
The sisters said, “You haven’t fought yet. How do you know you can’t win?”
Wen Qingling said, “Girls shouldn’t always talk about fighting and killing.”
Xiao Hen understood. “Without a plan, rushing in is no different than suicide.”
That’s about right. It can be considered suicide.
Wen Qingling: “Initiating an active attack may be a death sentence, while a passive counterattack may be waiting for death. The results are the same, so we might as well take a gamble.”
The sisters pouted, “We can’t just let an ambitious lunatic continue to oppress us. If it doesn’t die, we will eventually.”
No leader wants to see uncontrollable subordinates. Dealing with them four is only a matter of time.
Xiao Hen said, “As you said, the ‘General’ controls all evolved and ordinary zombies. Can you resist level suppression?”
There was a hint of probing in Xiao Hen’s words.
Looking at him, Wen Qingling said generously, “The four of us are not subject to the level suppression of the ‘General’. It can’t command us, so it will eventually come after us.”
Very well, this is an acknowledgment.
None of them are human.
Xiao Hen looked at them one by one, with turbulent waves in his heart, but he could still remain calm on the surface, just tightening his grip on the knife.
Wen Qingling looked at him with interest, wondering what his reaction would be.
Xiao Hen’s reaction was no reaction. He had guessed that Wen Qingling might not be human a long time ago. It’s just that he has only now been confirmed. With the previous conjectures as a foundation, Xiao Hen is not very difficult to accept this fact.
Xiao Hen said, “I have a proposal, do you want to hear it?”
Wen Qingling nodded, “Speak.”
Xiao Hen said, “There is an air force training base near Rong City, not far from Ling City. They have armed helicopters there, and I can fly one. If we can get our hands on one, I can provide air support while you act cheaply. Even if we can’t kill the ‘General’, we can at least wipe out a batch of evolved zombies. What do you think?”
The blood corpse was the first to object, “I disagree! I don’t trust you at all! Since you know there are armed helicopters over there, why didn’t you just come over with one? It just shows that it’s not easy to get your hands on an armed helicopter, right?”
Xiao Hen admitted, “Yes, there are mostly military zombies and many evolved zombies over there. It’s difficult for humans to get close.”
The blood corpse sneered, “As expected, you want to use us to get an armed helicopter, and then come over and wipe out all of us zombies. Your plan is good, but unfortunately, I don’t agree!”
Xiao Hen also disliked the blood corpse. In the previous few encounters, he had genuinely wanted to kill this zombie, but the blood corpse was very strong and difficult to kill. He never thought that one day he would discuss cooperation with the blood corpse.
Xiao Hen said, “Very well, I don’t believe you either. The person I want to cooperate with is Wen Qingling, not you.”
Xiao Hen looked at Wen Qingling and asked, “What do you think?”
Before Wen Qingling could speak, the two sisters said, “We don’t trust humans either, Lord Wen, please make your decision carefully.”
Since Blood Corpse and the two sisters took the initiative to come and find Wen Qingling, it meant that they were showing goodwill. They wanted to stand on the same side as Wen Qingling, but they didn’t trust humans and didn’t want to cooperate with them.
Wen Qingling didn’t answer Xiao Hen’s question, instead, he asked him, “Now that you know our true identities, what do you think? Will you report our existence and then bring in some colonels or generals with their armies to besiege us?”
After advancing again, Wen Qingling’s strength had become even stronger than before. He was more sensitive and precise in sensing his targets, and he didn’t need to touch them. He could see through them with just his eyes.
Xiao Hen knew that Wen Qingling was referring to their reporting of the incident in South City. If they had not brought back the information, Meng Lao would not have come to Ling Cheng Research Institute, and Yin Cheng would not have brought people to cause trouble in South City.
Xiao Hen said, “Reporting the information in Ling Cheng is my duty. Finding Fang Zhen and bringing back his blood sample is my mission.”
Wen Qingling asked, “And now?”
Xiao Hen replied, “My current mission is to protect Meng Lao and establish the research institute.”
Wen Qingling asked again, “And what about our existence?”
Xiao Hen looked at him and said, “If there are orders from above, I can only obey.”
Wen Qingling understood that if there were no orders, Xiao Hen would not report their existence, but if there were orders, he would not help to conceal it either.
Blood Corpse said to Wen Qingling, “He is a threat! He knows too much. Why not just kill him directly?”
Xiao Hen tightened his grip on his long sword, his eyes cold. He also wanted to kill Blood Corpse directly, as he had eaten too many people.
Wen Qingling lowered his eyes slightly and said, “Xiao Hen, as I said before, if humans are peaceful with us, we will be peaceful with them. If humans go to war with us, we will go to war with them. As a human colonel, I hope you can weigh the pros and cons and not be a puppet who only follows orders. The orders from above may not always be right, you need to learn to observe for yourself.”
Xiao Hen pressed his lips together. “As a soldier, I cannot disobey orders.”
Wen Qingling placed both hands on the ground and looked up at the sky. “You are no longer soldiers of the country. You are only soldiers of a small number of upper-class individuals. Don’t use your responsibilities during peacetime to boast about yourself. People are all selfish.”
Wen Qingling’s lips curved into a smile as he looked at Xiao Hen. “Power is tempting. Once you get a hold of it, you won’t want to let go. Do you think the pre-apocalyptic world and the post-apocalyptic world are the same?”
Of course not.
The factional struggle is severe, with everyone fighting for credit and recognition. It’s like this time, he and Yin Cheng are from two different factions, and they almost fought over the development of antibodies and vaccines. In the end, Yin Cheng’s side prevailed, which gave him the chance to be sent over here.
If Xiao Hen and his team were not directly involved in this matter, they would have been recalled by now. Even so, some people have suggested that they be replaced and four new people be sent in, but Xiao Hen’s superior refused.
Wen Qingling said, “I am not human myself, nor do I have the compassion of the divine father to save humanity. I treat humans only to earn crystal nuclei. Compared to humans, I would rather help zombies who come to me with crystal nuclei in their hands.”
“I didn’t want to go to war with humans in the first place, so I saved you and let you leave South City. I stopped the zombie tide and saved the Ling City Base for the first time. That was a trade with you. Whether I’m willing to save you again in the future depends entirely on my mood,” Wen Qingling continued.
Wen Qingling patted the dirt off his hands and said softly, “We are not afraid of war because there are far more zombies than living people.”
Zombies are difficult to kill and have no sense of pain. Unless you shoot them in the head, they won’t die. The scariest thing is their infectiousness. How many survivors can withstand the consumption of a zombie tide?
Xiao Hen took a deep breath and said, “I understand, and I will seriously consider it.”
“I propose cooperation with no ulterior motive. It’s entirely because you want to kill the ‘General,’ and we humans don’t want to see the ‘General’ appear either. So this may be a good opportunity for us to cooperate,” Xiao Hen said.
Wen Qingling replied, “We can talk about cooperation, but I must ensure that your armed helicopter will not pose a threat to zombies other than the target. We don’t trust you, just like you don’t trust us.”
“The armed helicopter requires a two-person crew, a pilot and a weapon system operator. I’ll be the pilot, and the weapon system operator will be one of your people. Can we trust each other now?” Xiao Hen asked.
Wen Qingling added, “If the armed helicopter is intact after the war, you cannot take it away. You must leave it in Ling City.”
Xiao Hen agreed.
Wen Qingling looked at the other three zombies and asked, “What do you think?”
The Blood Corpse said, “Who will operate the weapon system? Can you do it?”
Wen Qingling shrugged. He was sure he couldn’t, and this kind of thing required a high level of professionalism that couldn’t be mastered overnight.
The sisters: “We must choose someone we can trust.”
Wen Qingling stood up and said, “Xiao Hen and I will go to Rong City and pick someone from the driver zombies. We’ll leave the professional stuff to the professionals. I’ll leave my base to you. Please take care of it for me and make sure that the ‘General’ doesn’t cause any trouble.”
The blood corpse patted his chest and assured him, “Don’t worry, I’ll make sure everything is taken care of.”
The sisters nodded in agreement, “Don’t worry, we’ll take care of everything for you.”
Wen Qingling nodded and said, “You can go now. I’ll go to Rong City directly and come back as soon as possible. I hope you can hold on until then.”
When they came out, it was Wen Qingling who drove. They had to rely on the blood corpse, who was an adult, to go back, as the sisters were not old enough to drive.
Wen Qingling watched them leave before turning around to get in Xiao Hen’s car, “Let’s go.”
In fact, Xiao Hen did not understand what Wen Qingling meant by “picking someone from the driver zombies,” and Wen Qingling did not explain it to him either.
The two of them remained silent all the way to Rong City.
Rong City was to the west of Ling City, more than a hundred miles away. Otherwise, it would have fallen under the control of the “General,” making it even more difficult to deal with.
Xiao Hen said, “Can you do me a favor?”
Wen Qingling asked, “What is it?”
Xiao Hen said, “Can you use your psychic power to help me find Ji Rong and Meng Lao?”
Wen Qingling asked, “They went south while we are heading west. Do you think we can find them?”
Xiao Hen said, “They wouldn’t have gone too far from Ling City, they must be in this area, and not necessarily moving south all the time.”
Wen Qingling stretched out his hand, “Crystal nuclei.”
Xiao Hen handed him two second-level evolved zombie crystal nuclei.
Wen Qingling put the crystal nuclei into his own backpack.
Xiao Hen glanced at his backpack and asked, “Did you bring baby anemone with you?”
Wen Qingling said, “No.”
Xiao Hen did not ask any further.
Whenever he went out, Wen Qingling would carry a backpack with him. It had almost become his habit. Although his backpack did not have a baby anemone, it had the blood anemone.
He always carried his blood anemone with him and would never miss an opportunity to earn crystal nuclei.
