Chapter 101 The Emotional Intelligence of a Straight Man "Brother Mo, the Bai family's status in the base has always been awkward, and now that Liang Bei has a relationship with the research institute, I'm afraid they will be even more arrogant. What if Liang Bei really figures out something, the other senior executives of the base will have to stand on their side. At that time, the situation will be very unfavorable to us, right?" Mu Qimai's words awakened Bu Xiangwen's rusty brain. He half-supported his body, and his brain began to work slowly. "Liang Bei looks like she's only focused on her business and her mind isn't on research. What can she come up with at the institute?" Shu Xin said disdainfully while biting the straw she was using to drink freshly squeezed orange juice. "They are just a bunch of rabble, nothing to be afraid of. The Bai family hasn't settled the score for breaking into the villa last time yet. I hope they will be more sensible and not come to us to be bullied." Yan Mo looked at Shu Xin's habitual biting action with disapproval. Receiving Yan Mo's gaze, Shu Xin took the straw out of her mouth very consciously without waiting for Yan Mo to reach out, pretending nothing had happened. "That's true. Liang Bei was just rescued by us. No matter what, he will definitely not stand against us blatantly at this time. If that were the case, it would definitely have a bad impact on his reputation in the base. Liang Bei is a person who cares so much about his reputation that he probably won't do something that will have a bad impact on himself." Bu Xiangwen lay back on the lazy sofa and leisurely analyzed Liang Bei's character. "If his granddaughter has a crush on Xiao Lou, I guess he will also put in some effort in this regard." Mu Qimai, who was sitting on the single sofa on the other side, spoke suddenly. "Hiss!!! Wait! Wait! Let me see if you are possessed by some weird thing?" Bu Xiangwen, who was lying on the lazy sofa, sat up, ran to where Mu Qimai was, and turned his head up and down to check him. "Bu! Xiang! Wen! What are you doing!?" Mu Qimai said with a dark face, gritting his teeth as he took away Bu Xiangwen's hand that was messing with his head. "Let go! Let go! Your grip is too strong. My wrists are going to be broken!" Bu Xiangwen struggled and pulled his hands free from Mu Qimai's ruthless iron grip. "What were you doing just now?!" "It's because I heard you suddenly analyzing other people's emotional problems just now, and I felt that you were very abnormal. That's why I wanted to check if you were possessed by something dirty." "What's abnormal?" "Please, everything should be normal, okay? I didn't expect that you could actually tell that Liang Bei's granddaughter likes Xiao Lou. This doesn't fit with your character as a straight man." "I am a straight man, but I'm not blind. She behaved so obviously on the way back. If I still can't see it, I'm afraid you'll have to worry about whether there's something wrong with my brain." Mu Qimai's face was ashen, his tone was difficult, and he had the urge to strangle Bu Xiangwen to death. "Well, you can't blame me for this. It's mainly because of the 'don't get close to me' temperament you usually display, which makes me feel that you don't understand anything about this." "..." Bu Xiangwen blinked innocently, and his words choked Mu Qimai to death, and he didn't know what to say. Shu Xin buried her head in Yan Mo's arms, her body shaking with laughter. She tried hard to control herself from laughing out loud. There was also a smile in the corners of Yan Mo's eyes. Unable to bear the way the other three people looked at him, Mu Qimai felt his old face slightly red. He forced himself to stand up calmly and walked quickly upstairs. "Hahahahahahahaha..." "Geese, geese, geese, geese..." As Mu Qimai just stepped onto the corner of the stairs, he heard laughter coming from behind him and went upstairs faster. As Shuxin expected, Liang Bei was very concerned about her face. For the past two days, their team had been closed to visitors and kept the door tightly shut, so they had no idea what was happening outside. I had just walked a few steps today when I heard people on the street discussing how Professor Liang, who had just joined the base, was grateful to Xiao Lou's team, how he should keep them in mind and ask people in the base to take care of them, etc. Shu Xin and his group, who were hiding at the corner, couldn't help but shake off the goose bumps on their arms after listening to what the person in front of them said. They never expected that the man named Liang could be so shameless as to spread his good image so much in the base. Almost half of the base was discussing things related to him. It seemed that the Bai family played a significant role in fanning the flames behind the scenes. Liang Bei's purpose was nothing more than to take advantage of the fact that they were cut off from the outside world and give people the illusion that their team and Xiao Lou's team had a good relationship with him. In addition, by leveraging the reputation and strength of their team and the Xiaolou team in the base, he could highlight his own importance. They were two of the top five teams in the base, and they participated in my rescue mission together. What does that mean? This shows that I must be very important to the base! Shu Xin originally didn't have much emotion towards Liang Bei, but after this trip, she successfully developed an aversion to Liang Bei. Liang Bei was a famous biologist before the end of the world. He had published papers in major journals and had an award-winning research result that happened to be somewhat similar to the human gene mutation after the end of the world, which was of great help in studying the genes of human mutations. So when the base knew that it was he who sent the distress message, they chose to send their team and Xiaolou team to carry out the rescue mission. However, Shu Xin now feels that Liang Bei's honors and so-called "research results" are all questionable. The mentality and behavior he displayed are totally unlike what a person who is dedicated to scientific research would do. There are no people who specialize in scientific research. After arriving at the base, he didn't ask a single question about the research institute. He didn't care at all whether the scientific research materials and equipment were complete. He was only focused on building his own reputation. Shu Xin even thought a little evilly: Could it be that Liang Bei's papers and scientific research results were stolen from others? Later, when what happened to Liang Bei was exposed to everyone, Shu Xin was surprised at the accuracy of her inner intuition at that time. She didn't expect that her words would really come true!

Chapter 102 There's melon to eat! The Bai Jiabu placed a lot of spies around the Dawn Squad's villa. Whenever Shu Xin and his group went out and came back, there was someone following them and writing down on paper where they went and what they did. Before stepping into the villa gate, Yan Mo glanced vaguely in a certain direction and gave Mu Qimai a look. Mu Qimai glanced calmly at the place where Yan Mo had just looked and nodded in understanding. "Qimai and I are going out for a while and will be back soon." As soon as the door of the villa was closed, Yan Mo immediately took Mu Qimai and left through the back door of the villa without explaining in detail what he and Mu Qimai were going out for. Shu Xin and Bu Xiangwen were left standing there, watching the two of them hurriedly walking away. They looked at each other and saw the same confusion in each other's eyes. "What a man as quick as the wind... I wonder what the two of them are going to do in such a hurry?" Shu Xin murmured. "Well, forget about them. When they come back we'll know what they were doing. Their absence is a good opportunity for us to play games. Let's go!" Having known each other for more than ten years, Bu Xiangwen trusted Yan Mo and Mu Qimai's behavior quite a bit. He waved his hand nonchalantly and called Shu Xin to play games with him. Shu Xin had a genuine trust in Yan Mo and played games with Bu Xiangwen without any psychological burden. I don't know if the people in the Bai family are really stupid or just pretending to be stupid. Even though they knew that Yan Mo was a psychic who could easily detect what was going on around them, they still sent people to monitor them. Yan Mo took Mu Qimai and the other man out through the back door. He did not rush over and tie up the person who was monitoring them. Instead, he followed him slowly and only appeared after he entered the Bai family's villa. If they just went up and kidnapped someone outside, even if they found something on that person that could prove that the Bai family was sending people to monitor them, the Bai family would never admit it. However, if the person is caught in the Bai family's villa, he would be caught red-handed and would not be able to deny it. Even if the Bai family refuses to admit it today, I'm afraid they will never dare to hire someone to monitor their every move in the future. The man entered the Bai family's villa. Yan Mo kept monitoring him with his mental power. When Bai Xiangdi met the other party in a separate room, Yan Mo gave Mu Qimai a look and swaggered towards the Bai family's villa with his men. "Why don't you come up to greet the guests but run back instead?" The two people guarding the door saw Yan Mo and Mu Qimai coming. One of them wanted to run in to tell Bai Xiangdi the news, but before he could take a step, someone grabbed his collar from behind his neck. Without giving the two psychics at the door a chance to react, Mu Qimai knocked them out one by one with his hands. Their position was right at the gate, and the people passing by had already quietly turned their attention to Yan Mo and Mu Qimai when they approached the Bai family villa. Now in the base, almost no one does not know that the Dawn Squad and the Bai Family are in a hostile relationship. Seeing that they did not shy away from it at all and directly knocked out the gatekeeper of the Bai Family, everyone's eyes widened unconsciously. Oh my god! Are the people from the Dawn Squad so arrogant? ! In full view of everyone, they knocked directly on the Bai family's door! Is the Dawn Squad going to fight with the Bai family? ! Stimulate! ! ! This melon is edible! ! ! The psychics who were passing by the Bai family's villa saw this scene and stopped in their tracks at the same time. People passing by behind them saw that they were standing still and were confused, so they went up to ask. After learning the whole story, they also immediately chose to stay and watch. The guards inside the Bai family were loose, and they didn't encounter many psychics along the way. This indirectly reflected that the Bai family's status in the base was not as good as they showed. With Yan Mo's mental power cheating, their destination was very clear, and they went straight to the room where Bai Xiangdi and that man were having a secret conversation. Bai Xiangdi himself did not have any awakened special abilities. When he heard the sound of fighting and realized something was wrong, the door of the room had already been violently opened from the outside. "Captain Yan, what are you doing? There are rules in the base that prohibit trespassing into private residences!" Seeing Yan Mo and Mu Qimai walking in calmly, Bai Xiangdi became furious and shouted angrily. "Master Bai, don't get excited. After all, you are old. If you get too excited and accidentally faint, I'm afraid you will blame us. However, since you just said that the base does not allow trespassing into private residences, have you ever thought about this problem when you allowed your grandson to lead people to break into our team's place?" "What nonsense are you talking about?! I don't understand!" "Tsk, that's right. I don't think you will admit to something without evidence. Then why don't you tell me that you sent people to monitor our team. There is solid evidence and the person was caught red-handed~Master Bai." Yan Mo walked to Bai Xiangdi's desk, picked up the note that the man had just handed over, and stared at Bai Xiangdi with a smile. "You...!!!" Yan Mo and the others came in suddenly, and Bai Xiangdi didn't have time to clean up the things on the table. Such an obvious flaw and handle was no different from directly handing it to the other party. Bai Xiangdi's face turned dark.

Chapter 103 Satisfied "Hmph, just a few notes, what can that prove?" Bai Xiangdi is indeed an old fox who has lived for many years. He is extremely thick-skinned. He quickly adjusted his state and looked at the notes in Yan Mo's hand with an appearance of playing tricks to the end. "Oh~ Of course, the head of the Bai family is refusing to admit it, and we can't really beat you to death in public. I hope that the head of the Bai family will not do these shameful things in the future, otherwise it will make me very distressed. When I am in a bad mood, I may do something to your precious grandson." Yan Mo did not have the time and energy to argue with Bai Xiangdi. He knew Bai Xiangdi's vital point very well. Arguing with words was the most useless. It was most effective to hit the enemy's weak point directly. "You dare!" It was obvious that Yan Mo had grasped Bai Xiangdi's weak spot accurately. Bai Xiangdi could no longer maintain his facial expression and stared at Yan Mo with vicious eyes. "You know whether I dare or not. Master Bai, take care of yourself." Yan Mo did not even give Bai Xiangdi an extra glance and did not care at all about how Bai Xiangdi would react. The purpose of his trip with Mu Qimai had been achieved. Bai Xiangdi's thoughts were not important to him at all and were not worth his attention at all. After today, the Bai family will definitely be wary of them and will not take action against them easily. They will also be able to get rid of the fact that there will be tails following them and monitoring them whenever they go out. Moreover, their attack on the Bai family today was witnessed by many people. I'm sure that other people in the base will be more wary of their team in the future, and they will become the most difficult team to deal with in everyone's mind. Bai Zhengchu rushed home immediately after receiving the news, but did not meet Yan Mo face to face. When he returned home, Yan Mo had already left. "Grandpa, are you okay? Where is Yan Mo? I have to teach him a lesson! He really doesn't know his place and even dares to come to my house to provoke me! He simply doesn't take our Bai family seriously!" Bai Zhengchu ran back the whole way and barely took a breath when he spoke. "I'm fine. Zhengchu, please sit down. I have something to tell you." Yan Mo and the others had been gone for a while, and Bai Xiangdi had a lot of thoughts in his mind. "Grandpa, what's wrong? Shouldn't we ask someone to deal with Yan Mo first?" "Hey, Zhengchu, don't provoke Yan Mo in the near future. The strength of their team has far exceeded our expectations. We won't gain any benefit from confronting them head-on." "Grandpa..." "Xiang Wen, I know you want to deal with Yan Mo. We can discuss this matter in the long run." Bai Zhengchu originally wanted to say something, but when his eyes met his grandfather's old and tired face, the words he was about to say could not come out. He swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth and lowered his head in silence, making it impossible to see the expression on his face. After the warning that day, the people of the Bai family indeed behaved a lot more obediently. However, Shuxin was a little unhappy that Yan Mo went to teach the Bai family a lesson without taking her. In order to appease Shuxin, Yan Mo made a series of "ceding land and paying compensation" treaties, which finally appeased the angry little ancestor. Shu Xin rubbed her aching waist, feeling that the "cession of territory and payment of compensation" treaty that she had asked Yan Mo to sign was too kind. If she had known this earlier, she should not have been so soft-hearted! Yan Mo, who was massaging her from behind, took in all of Shu Xin's rich expressions. A hint of satisfaction flashed across his eyes. He didn't care about the curses in Shu Xin's little head. He was thinking about what position to use tomorrow.

Chapter 104 Barbecue: After Yan Mo's warning, the Bai family made fewer small moves, and even became more low-key in doing things in the base. Liang Bei had just gotten support from the Bai family when something like this happened to the Bai family, making him very depressed as he wanted to use the Bai family to achieve some goals. Given the Bai family's current situation, all his previous plans had to be postponed, and he even had to give up some of them. What annoyed him the most was that for some reason, rumors had been circulating in the base recently that he had a relationship with the Bai family, and many people believed it to be true. Although what he said was indeed true, he did not want to expose his relationship with the Bai family now. Especially since he had someone in the base some time ago, spreading the word that he was familiar with the Dawn Squad and that the Dawn Squad saved his life. Now, there was a conflict between the Bai family and the Dawn Squad. Many eyes in the base were staring at him, wanting to see how he would choose between the two. His arrival threatened the status of some people in the institute. In addition to the irrelevant personnel who came to watch the fun, there were also many people in the base who wanted to secretly laugh at him, so no matter what he did now, he would offend one of the parties. Originally, the top leaders of the base attached great importance to Liang Bei, the biology professor. Otherwise, when they received his call for help, they would not have immediately called Xiao Lou and Yan Mo's two teams to rescue him. They have also heard a lot of news from within the base. Originally, they were thinking of entrusting Liang Bei with the important task directly, but now it seems necessary to observe Liang Bei first. Things in the research institute cannot be taken lightly and must be considered carefully. Whether Liang Bei is close to the Bai family or to the Dawn Squad, it is not a situation they want to see. The core personnel in the research institute must all be loyal to the base and be controlled by the base. Liang Bei, who was waiting at home for the base to entrust him with an important task, finally became unable to sit still after waiting for several days without receiving any notice to take up the post. He panicked and took the initiative to go to his superiors to inquire about the news. The leader of the base intended to warn Liang Bei, so his request for a meeting was naturally not granted. Liang Bei felt like someone had poured a bucket of cold water on his head after being rejected. Liang Bei calmed down from his ambition that was blinded by fanaticism, and recalled a series of actions he had taken after entering the base. Fear suddenly welled up in his heart, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on the back of his neck. His steps as he walked back were unusually weak. The Bai family and Liang Bei calmed down at the same time, and Yan Mo was very satisfied with this. He was the one who asked someone to spread the news about Liang Bei and the Bai family, and all the impacts on Liang Bei were within his calculations. From the day Liang Bei and the Bai family got in touch, Liang Bei had been standing on the opposite side of them. Yan Mo would never show mercy to known enemies. Bu Xiangwen and Mu Qimai knew all of Yan Mo's plan. They secretly sighed that it was still the familiar feeling. It turned out that the gentleness he showed after being with his sister-in-law was all fake! "What are you three doing with your eyes? It's so weird?" Shu Xin came down from upstairs and saw three grown men sitting on the sofa. They didn't say anything, but just communicated with each other with their eyes. "Nothing, nothing, sister-in-law, what are we eating tonight?" Seeing Yan Mo's look that said "If you dare to say one more word, you're done", Bu Xiangwen immediately laughed to divert Shu Xin's attention. "Well, I have all kinds of skewers in my space. How about we have a barbecue tonight? With a little wine, life will be wonderful." Fortunately, Shu Xinxin was more open-minded and did not notice the slightly weird atmosphere between the three of them just now. She followed Bu Xiangwen's train of thought. "Sure, sure. Absolutely. Apart from anything else, my barbecue skills are absolutely amazing. I'll let you guys taste my cooking tonight." Hearing that it was barbecue, Bu Xiangwen became interested and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Chapter 105: Sinking into the basement of the Bai family villa late at night "Didn't I tell you not to contact me recently? Why did you take the risk to come here today?!" Even in a place that Bai Xiangdi thought was absolutely safe, he didn't dare to speak loudly and controlled his volume. It was not difficult to hear his annoyance. "Don't worry, I avoided other people's sight on the way here, and no one knew I came to your place. If my letter of appointment from the base had not been delayed, do you think I would risk coming here?!" Liang Bei, who was also troubled, spoke in a bad tone. "I already know about this matter, but I can't help you now. You have to find a way to solve it yourself." "I have already thought of a solution. The higher-ups are afraid that I have connections with your Bai family. Other people in the base are also waiting to see my attitude towards you and the Dawn Team. I must come out and make a positive response to minimize the impact on me." "Oh? What are you going to do? Is there anything you need my cooperation with?" Bai Xiangdi heard the implied meaning in Liang Bei's words and narrowed his eyes slightly, waiting for his next words. "Since the higher-ups in the base are wary of my closeness to you guys, and they need me to make a statement between the Bai family and the Dawn Squad, I can take this opportunity to publicly sever the relationship between us, so that the people above can rest assured and they will also be more wary of the Dawn Squad." " And with this public statement, the relationship between us will go underground. Even if the people above won't believe it easily for a while, as long as we keep it secret well, they will slowly let down their guard. Isn't that a good thing for us?" Liang Bei came up with this solution after locking himself in the office for a day and a night. "I understand what you mean, but since we have to perform it for the people above, we have to act it out more realistically. Except for me, no one else in the Bai family will know the true relationship between us. From now on, we can just communicate through one-on-one channels." Bai Xiangdi drooped his eyelids to hide the gleam in his eyes. "Okay, now that it's settled, I won't stay any longer." Having achieved his goal, Liang Bei had no interest in staying any longer. The troublesome matter finally had a solution and hope. Physical fatigue continued to come to him, leaving him no extra mood to observe the expression of Bai Xiangdi opposite him. After returning home and resting for a night, Liang Bei publicly declared the next day that she had nothing to do with the Bai family. It has been more than a week since the conflict between the Bai family and the Dawn Squad. The incident is almost fading from everyone's sight. Liang Bei is only now speaking publicly about this, which seems a bit like an attempt to cover up the truth. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell what was going on, but not everyone was smart, and some people still believed what he said. This led to polarized opinions about him within the base. Yan Mo didn't care how Liang Bei handled the matter. No matter how he handled it or how he solved it, he couldn't escape the next trap he set. In his eyes, what Liang Bei is doing now is nothing more than a fight of a trapped beast and is not worth mentioning. Without annoying people coming out to disturb her from time to time, Shuxin's life in the base is so comfortable. If it weren't for a certain man who always wouldn't let her get out of bed, she would be willing to stay at the base and not go out. "You have to go out on a mission tomorrow, so you can't go too far tonight!" Shu Xin put her hand on the man's chest in front of her, her face slightly flushed, and said unnaturally. "Be good, just once." "You also said it was only once last time, but what happened... well..." The woman's voice was swallowed up by the man, interrupting her attempt to struggle. She could only rise and fall in the sea with the man's rhythm.

Chapter 106 Sunny and Energetic Little Wolf Dog When they set out the next morning, Shu Xin was carried to the car by Yan Mo. When Shu Xin woke up completely, they were already far away from the base. Yan Mo and his team were only on this mission by chance. Their main purpose was to find a place with many zombies and train themselves. They advanced one after another at a too fast speed. In order to prevent their foundation from becoming unstable later, Yan Mo planned to take them outside for actual combat training and stop them from absorbing crystal cores in the short term. All the crystal cores of the killed zombies were contracted by Shu Xin, and the progress of opening the third-level security base in space was visibly increasing rapidly. The progress that seemed out of reach before now turns out to be not as difficult as I imagined. This time they have been outside for nearly two weeks. With the accumulation of bits and pieces from before, the progress bar has reached one-tenth of the way through half a month, which made Shuxin excited for a long time. The level of the zombies will become higher and higher, and the progress points will increase each time. According to the current progress, it will only take about two years for them to have a doomsday safe base of their own. Because they couldn't predict the exact time to return to the base, and were afraid that if they didn't go back for a long time, someone would keep an eye on their villa, before leaving, Yan Mo went to find the top management of the base and said hello in advance. Of course, it was impossible for the top management of the base to help them look after the villa for no reason. Only after Yan Mo promised to give them some benefits did they agree, saying that it was just looking after a villa, no big deal. Therefore, they were out for such a long time this time, and they were not worried that the Bai family would take advantage of their absence to do the same thing as last time. Even if the Bai family wanted to commit a crime against the wind, the unconnected high-voltage power grid on the villa wall would be enough to give them a hard time. "The practical training for the past half month has really not been in vain. Look at my muscles, and then look at my skin which has darkened several shades. If it were in the past, I would have been a sunny and healthy little wolfdog!" Bu Xiangwen collapsed on the ground in exhaustion, feeling his muscles twitching slightly due to overuse, and sighed. "Hahahaha, you think you're a sunny and energetic little wolfdog. Take a good look at Brother Mu's skin color, and then compare your own skin with that. Do you think what you just said was presumptuous or not?" Leaning on Yan Mo like a boneless person, Shu Xin laughed at Bu Xiangwen for overestimating his own abilities. "..." "Sorry to bother you, it turns out I'm not worthy." Mu Qimai and Bu Xiangwen were back to back. When Bu Xiangwen turned around, he could see Mu Qimai's muscles that rose and fell with his breathing without any effort. The exposed skin had a bronze color that was extremely powerful and beautiful, and his hormones were overflowing. Compared with Mu Qimai, Bu Xiangwen felt like a white-boiled chicken that posed no threat, even though his skin had become much darker during this period. He must have opened the comparison in the wrong way! His eyes turned to Shuxin, whose mouth corners had not yet closed, and he moved his eyes silently back. When he saw Yan Mo, whose white face was still glowing, his eyes lit up. Before he could open his mouth to say anything suicidal, Yan Mo sensed Bu Xiangwen's gaze first. He gave him a light glance, and Bu Xiangwen swallowed all his words back into his stomach, and remained silent. The huge amount of training made their bodies extremely tired, and they had no extra energy for other activities. After training every day, they had a quick dinner, washed up simply, lay down on the bed, covered their heads with quilts and fell asleep. Tonight was no exception. As usual, Shu Xin released a protective circle to surround the RV, and the white tiger and snow wolf guarded inside and outside the RV to protect their safety. Perhaps it is because they have not encountered anything that can threaten them since the end of the world, and their vigilance is not as strong as it was at the beginning. Little did they know that danger was approaching quietly... (Prepare to let Xinbao go out to wander alone~Xinbao's wandering story will begin soon...)

Chapter 107 The Protracted War The night of the end of the world is dark and silent. To humans, night is a disaster and a time that cannot be avoided. However, to zombies and certain mutant creatures, it is indeed a stage for wanton revelry. At three o'clock in the morning, on the roadside near the RV, there were inconspicuous plants that looked no different from grass, quietly emitting their own scent. The almost unpleasant smell was inhaled into the noses of Dabai and Tayun who were guarding outside the RV. Soon, Dabai and Tayun, who were lying on the ground, closed their eyes and fell into a deep sleep. A smell without any form drifted into the RV through the gap in the RV's door, and all the people and animals in the car, without exception, inhaled the gas that was like a hypnotic. This smell, which is almost impossible for humans and animals to smell, has the opposite effect on zombies. Zombies that smell this smell will become excited as if they were injected with stimulants. The excited zombies will have a significant increase in their sense of smell, movement speed, and attack power, and will gather towards where the smell comes from. Yan Mo's powerful biological clock forced him to regain consciousness at five o'clock in the morning. His heavy consciousness and his eyes that he wanted to close immediately after opening them kept sending him a signal: something was wrong! "Xinbao!" The emergency night light in the RV was not turned off. Yan Mo turned his head and looked around. Seeing Shuxin still lying safely beside him, his heart slowly settled down. "Xinbao, Xinbao, wake up, Xinbao..." "Well~ Don't disturb me, let me sleep a little longer~ I'm so sleepy~" "Xinbao, get up, something is wrong!" Yan Mo's serious tone made Shuxin stop trying to bury her head in the quilt and continue sleeping. She resisted the constant sleepiness and opened her eyes. "What happened?" "We can't be sure yet. Get a few gas masks from the space and go! Go wake up Qimai and Xiangwen first." In order to deal with emergencies, they always sleep in their clothes when they are on missions and spend the night outside, which makes it convenient for them to respond quickly at this time. Compared with the tone and method he used when calling Shuxin, Yan Mo's method of calling Mu Qimai and Bu Xiangwen was simple and crude. He simply pushed open the doors of the two people, took a small spray bottle in his hand, and sprayed them on their faces a few times. Bu Xiangwen:! ! ! Makimai:! ! ! The effect was immediate, and the two of them broke out of their coma in an instant. "What's wrong? What's wrong? Is the RV leaking?" After touching the cold water on his face, Bu Xiangwen looked up at the roof in a daze. When he saw the watering can in Yan Mo's hand in front of him, he understood everything. "..." Looking at the way the other three people looked at him, Bu Xiangwen just wanted to go back to the previous three seconds and cover his mouth. It was really stupid! "Hiss, why is my head so heavy? I feel like falling asleep at any moment." "Here, gas masks. Something happened outside that we don't know about. Dabai and the others didn't issue any warning, so they must have been infected. The fact that we were infected so easily is probably because there is something extra in the air, and we inhaled it into our bodies without realizing it." The voice coming through the gas masks sounded muffled. Yan Mo quickly stuffed gas masks in the hands of the two men. While Bu Xiangwen and Mu Qimai were wearing gas masks, Yan Mo endured the dizziness in his head and released his mental power to observe the situation outside the RV. After carefully checking the area around the RV and finding no hidden dangers, he continued to expand the search range. About a hundred meters away from the RV, Yan Mo discovered that countless zombies were surrounding their RV. "There are unknown numbers of zombies outside, surrounding us. And judging from the state of those zombies, they are different from those we usually see. Go out and wake up Dabai and Tayun, tell them to get in the car, and prepare to break out." Sensing the situation outside, Yan Mo's expression became more and more tense. Shu Xin and the other two looked at Yan Mo's expression and felt a chill in their hearts. They were afraid that they were really in big trouble today and would definitely have a tough battle to fight later. Yan Mo and Bu Xiangwen got out of the car to call Dabai and Tayun, while Shu Xin and Mu Qimai quickly counted the equipment in the car. The things in the air have a much greater impact on animals than humans. Dabai and the other four completely lost their fighting ability and were in a drowsy state. Somehow, when counting the equipment, Shuxin felt very nervous, as if something unexpected was going to happen. I always felt uneasy in my heart. After everyone's equipment was packed, Shuxin for some reason stuffed more supplies and medicines into everyone's backpack than usual. She also put a lot of long-lasting food, commonly used emergency medicines and gasoline in the RV. After putting these things away, Shuxin felt less anxious. "Xinbao, what were you doing?" "Nothing, I went to the back and put some extra things in everyone's equipment, and also put a lot in the RV, so that we can quickly replenish them when things are gone." "Yeah, that's fine." During the few minutes they were packing up, the tide of zombies got closer and closer to them. Sitting in the cab, they could already feel the horror of the zombies outside. The eyes of all the zombies glowed an abnormal red light, and their expressions and movements were more than twice as distorted as what they usually saw, making people feel creepy just by looking at them. The zombies moved very quickly and were within ten meters of the RV in the blink of an eye. Yan Mo used his mental power to find a direction with fewer zombies, stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, and the car rushed out rapidly. The modified car was like a steel behemoth. The zombies walking in front were directly knocked away. The car rushed out about a hundred meters with the momentum and then slowed down. After rushing into the pile of zombies, the four people clearly realized how many zombies there were. The surroundings were swarming with zombies with no end in sight. In the dark night before daybreak, pairs of eyes glowing red were scattered all around. The situation this time is far more serious than they imagined. No wonder Yan Mo asked Shu Xin to take out a lot of explosives and heavy weapons from the space just now. Mu Qimai and Bu Xiangwen each carried a rocket launcher and blasted at the zombies in front of them, quickly clearing the zombies on the road. Shu Xin couldn't use the rocket launcher, but throwing explosives was no problem, and he threw the explosives in the space as if they were free. Yan Mo waited for the right moment to drive through the road they had cleared with gunpowder, but there were too many zombies. Every time a section of road was cleared, it would be filled up again with the horde of zombies behind in just a few seconds. In this situation, if it were any other team, it would be impossible to escape from such a huge tide of zombies, and their mentality would have collapsed long ago. But this

Chapter 108 Mutation Half an hour passed... an hour passed... an hour and a half passed... the dark world was finally broken by the morning light. Two hours of high-intensity and focused fighting made the four people exhausted, especially since they had to resist the remaining sleepiness in their bodies, which was a huge challenge for them. Even though it was daybreak, they could not let their guard down, as it would take some time for the huge zombie tide to disperse. As the sun rose, the unknown plants stopped emitting scent. Without a source to attract zombies, the zombie tide began to slowly recede from the periphery. Without the stimulant-like bonus, the zombies' combat effectiveness dropped to their original daytime level, but the fatigue in Shuxin and the others still remained in their bodies. Despite this, their pressure was still greatly reduced. By the time the zombie horde retreated and the few remaining zombies were dealt with by them, the sun was already high in the sky. "Huh..." The four of them were so tired that they didn't even have the strength to speak. Driving in the second half became even more difficult. Yan Mo could only use his mental power to attack the zombies while looking for a gap to drive forward. His mental power was completely overdrawn. The situation of the other few people was not much better. Even if they used both thermal weapons and superpowers interchangeably, the superpowers in their bodies had reached a state of drying up. The fastest way to replenish the body's superpowers is to absorb the energy in the crystal cores. Shuxin took out all the spare crystal cores for them to absorb, which only slightly alleviated the discomfort caused by excessive use of superpowers. They could only come down and use local materials to dig out zombie crystal cores. As soon as they got off the car, they were almost vomited by the strong stench that hit them in the face. The body of the RV was splattered with the remains of zombie flesh and blood, as if it had been dug out from a mountain of zombie corpses. In fact, the real situation is not much different. The smell of blood and stench here are too strong, which can easily attract groups of mutated crows or other mutated animals that feed on zombie flesh. They cannot stay here for long. "Ugh~" "Yue~" "Luckily we are driving an RV with a high body and a high ground, otherwise we might not be able to drive over the piles of zombie corpses we killed along the way." Bu Xiangwen said as he stared in amazement at the RV that was smashed into a mess by zombies, and then at the corpses scattered all around. "Let's do our business first." Yan Mo frowned slightly as he looked at the dirty and bloody environment in front of him, urging Bu Xiangwen not to stand there in a daze but to do his business first. "Hurry up and each of you put on three masks. At least it can block out some of the smell. It's really too smelly. Ugh~" Shu Xin took out a handful of masks from the space and quickly distributed them to everyone, stuffing a few in their hands without leaving out gloves. The scene was so disgusting that they couldn't do it without gloves! Seeing the RV painted like this, Shuxin would never put it in the space again. Just looking at it would make her feel that other things would be contaminated. They still had to drive the car away later, so Shu Xin took out a small high-pressure water gun specially used for washing cars from the space and washed the body of the RV. If she didn't wash it, she was afraid that when she drove on the road later, zombie body parts would drop down while she was driving. Eh~ When Shu Xin thought of that scene, she couldn't help but get goose bumps all over her body, and felt disgusted by the scene she imagined. Yan Mo saw Shu Xin washing the car on the spot without wandering around, so he lowered his head and started digging the crystal core with confidence. Accidents often happen when people let down their guard. They killed a lot of zombies along the way, especially in the last period of time when they could hardly move. They just stopped where they were and focused on dealing with the zombies, causing the zombie corpses around the RV to pile up like a hill. The vast majority of zombies don't have any thoughts and don't know how to hide themselves. This situation only changed in the late apocalypse when high-level zombies appeared. So Yan Mo never thought that there would be zombies taking the opportunity to ambush under the pile of corpses, and when they rushed out, they would be caught off guard. "Be careful!!!" Without the support of psychic powers, Yan Mo's own intuition about danger was equally strong. His sensitive nerves sensed that something was wrong and he issued a warning immediately. "Ouch——" "Hiss——" Unfortunately, it was still a step too late. Bu Xiangwen and Mu Qimai, who were closer, relied on their body's instinct to avoid the fatal attack of the zombies. Due to their current very bad condition, all they could do was to avoid fatal places, and they could not escape from being injured. Yan Mo was also attacked by surprise. His reaction was faster than Bu Xiangwen and Mu Qimai, but his left arm was also stabbed. "!!!" "Husband!!!" Shu Xin turned her head after hearing the noise, and just saw Yan Mo and the others narrowly avoid the sneak attack and then get injured. A series of things happened in just five seconds. It turned out that they were attacked by three third-level zombies. Even though Yan Mo and the others were equipped with weapons and reacted quickly, without their special powers and with their physical strength over-consumed, they eventually fell into a disadvantage. They were fighting so fast that Shu Xin didn't dare to shoot to help. It would be fine if he didn't hit the zombies, but if he accidentally hit one of his own people, that would be more of a hindrance than help. If she rushed forward rashly, it would be no different from holding back. Shu Xin was extremely anxious as she watched from the side, and she tried desperately to compress the supernatural power that had just recovered in her body. Seeing more and more scars on Yan Mo and the other two's bodies, Shu Xin was getting anxious and about to cry, when finally "Wish Come True" appeared in the palm of her hand. Shu Xin endured the tearing pain in her body and the blackening symptoms in front of her eyes, and added a layer of protection circle for the three people, releasing a small restriction circle within the range of the three zombies' activities. After doing all this, "Full Wish" dissipated in her hand like a point of light. She leaned against the freshly washed car body behind her, feeling relaxed and powerless. She couldn't even stand on her own. "Xinbao!" Yan Mo felt that he had a familiar supernatural power. He turned his head to look at Shuxin. Shuxin's face as pale as paper said it all. Yan Mo's face looked very ugly, and he attacked the zombies in front of him even more ruthlessly. The zombie on the opposite side clearly felt the aura that Yan Mo was not to be trifled with. Its animal-like instinct to seek profit and avoid harm made it choose to give up continuing to entangle with the person in front of it. The weak human in the distance was more suitable for it. "Ho ho--" After passing the message to its two companions, the speed zombie that was fighting with Yan Mo quickly passed Yan Mo and ran towards the position where Shu Xin was behind him. "!!!" Yan Mo noticed the zombies' movements and was about to chase after them, but was stopped by two zombies that suddenly appeared in front of him and had to pull his hands away to deal with them. Bu Xiangwen and Mu Qi

Chapter 109 Look! A person falls from the sky! "Xinbao!!!" Shu Xin saw the zombies rushing towards her and turned around to dodge. But before she took two steps, she felt the collar on the back of her neck being grabbed and lifted up. The zombies' unique sharp nails were so close to her neck that she dared not move or struggle. If she was not careful, she would be killed and become completely Barbie Q. Shu·Fate is strangled by the neck·Heart: Dare not move! I dare not move at all! Bu Xiangwen and Mu Qimai came over very quickly. Yan Mo quickly freed his hands and ran towards Shu Xin. Seeing that the third-level zombie wanted to take Shu Xin away, he kept forcibly squeezing out the supernatural powers in his body, trying to stop it. The speed of a third-order speed zombie was beyond his ability to catch up with at the moment. Even with his supernatural powers squeezed to the limit, the best he could do was to leave a trace of mark on its body. "Ah——!" He watched his beloved being taken away in front of him, but there was little he could do. The pain of helplessness and the hatred towards himself eroded Yan Mo's heart and nerves bit by bit, and his eyes turned red from trying too hard. "Puff——" The supernatural power in his body was over-exploited, causing great backlash to the body. Coupled with the anger, Yan Mo directly spat out a mouthful of blood, and his body swayed twice and he could not stand steadily. When Bu Xiangwen and Mu Qimai saw Shu Xin being captured, they also burst out and forced back the third-level zombies that were entangled with them, and ran over to try to support Yan Mo's shaking body. Yan Mo lost his sense of the outside world and walked forward numbly, his steps light and heavy, and he could fall at any time. Bu Xiangwen and Mu Qimai knew that he was feeling bad right now, and no matter how many words of comfort they said, it would not be as useful as for them to seize the time to recover their strength and find their sister-in-law as soon as possible. When he stepped into the door of the RV and saw Xiaobai sleeping inside, Yan Mo fainted without warning. Mu Qimai was quick to catch him before he fell to the ground. He looked at Bu Xiangwen and saw deep worry in the other's eyes. Shu Xin, who was being held in the zombie's hand, wanted to shout to Yan Mo to reassure him, but as soon as she moved her mouth, she felt the skin on the back of her neck touch the zombie's cold and sharp nails. The nails of zombies are poisonous in themselves. Moreover, since it can advance to become a third-level zombie, it must have devoured a lot of humans and companions. Who knows how many bacteria are in its nails. Shu Xin could only shut her mouth in frustration. It was the first time that someone carried her by the back of her neck like a kitten or a puppy and shuttled her quickly between buildings. In order to avoid becoming disabled, Shuxin tried her best to curl up her legs to reduce collisions. She didn't know where she would be taken or what kind of treatment she would encounter. Even though her head hurt so much that it was about to explode, Shu Xin didn't dare close her eyes and secretly pinched her thighs to keep herself awake. "Ho ho-ho——" Shu Xin was startled and her whole body tensed up when she suddenly heard the voice of another zombie. No way, no way, this zombie wouldn't bring her to the zombie gathering place. "Hiss - ho ho -" The zombie that was holding him let out a roar. If the conditions allowed, Shu Xin would have covered her ears to show her respect for how unpleasant the sound was. It was unknown what the other side said in reply, but the zombie holding her suddenly let go, threw her away casually, and quickly leaped towards the place where the sound came from. Shuxin:! ! ! Big brother! Why don't you have martial ethics? Please! This is a three-story building. You said you wanted to let go, but not only did you let go, you also threw it casually. Let me ask you, have you ever considered my life or death? Oh, you didn't, I can tell. Damn! Brother Zombie, you really have the ability to not care about other people's lives! She felt comfortable in the free fall and countless thoughts flashed through her mind, but she was not worried that she would fall to her death. Because there is no such possibility at all, you just need to put out a mattress from the space to cushion yourself when you are approaching the ground. Ideals are full of hope, but reality is very hard. "Look! A person falls from the sky!" "It's a girl! Find a way to save her!" Before she could release the mattress from the space, she heard someone screaming from below.

Chapter 110 The first day of separation from Yan Mo. Thinking of him, she felt relieved the next second when she felt someone taking the clothes from the back of her neck again. Before she could say anything, her feet had already touched the ground. Shu Xin: Today, it seems like everyone likes to grab my clothes by the back of my neck. This is outrageous! "Thank you, thank you." Seeing Shuxin standing firm and the man holding her let go of his hand, Shuxin turned around to thank the man and also saw clearly what the person who saved her looked like. The man in front of her had the typical appearance of a boy next door, but his temperament was not as warm as that of a boy next door. There was no expression on his face and he looked cold, which made him look like a flower on the mountain top. "It's okay, you're welcome." Bu Yuanzhou didn't take Shu Xin's words of thanks to heart. After saying this, he walked to an empty corner and closed his eyes to rest. Shu Xin thought Bu Yuanzhou's cold attitude was very normal. This was the end of the world, and he was very kind to help a stranger and not watch her fall to death. "Hey, why did you fall from the sky?" The girl who was the first to discover Shuxin's exclamation ran over and looked up and down at the girl who fell from the sky. "It was an accident, purely an accident." Shu Xin remained extremely vigilant towards strangers. "What's your name? My name is Ren Shiting." Ren Shiting hugged Shuxin's arm very familiarly and introduced herself. "Just call me Xiao Shu. Do you know where this place is?" Shu Xin pulled back her arm with a fake smile. In her previous life, she was also a rich girl with many fake sisters. From the moment Ren Shiting started talking to her, the little thoughts and calculations in her eyes were about to overflow, but she thought she was hiding it well. It has been a long time since I have seen someone of such a low level. If Shu Xin had not figured out the current situation and could get some information from her, she would have lost her patience to act with her. "This is a small county town in J City. We are all survivors who escaped from J City. The person who just rescued you is called Bu Yuanzhou. He usually doesn't talk to us. I didn't expect that he would save you this time." Ren Shiting seemed not to notice Shu Xin's estrangement. Her attitude did not change at all, and she explained the current situation to her. "J City?!" "Yes, J City, is there any problem?" "No, no, I was just frightened and can't react. Where are you going now?" "We are planning to go to B City together. I heard that a safe base has been established there that will take in survivors from surrounding cities. I can see that you don't look very good. Sit down and rest for a while. I guess we'll set off soon." Shu Xin nodded randomly, her head confused. Maybe Ren Shiting saw that Shuxin's condition was really bad, and was afraid that she would die if she didn't let her rest for a while, so she didn't disturb Shuxin anymore. Although Shu Xin knew that the third-order speed zombies were fast, she had never expected that in just a few hours, the zombie had taken her from City C to City J, crossing two provinces in between. It's such a long distance, and if she drives back by herself, it will take at least one or two months, assuming there are no emergencies on the road. If something happens along the way, it will take even longer. I don't know how serious Yan Mo's injuries are, or whether he has received proper medicine and treatment. I was abducted in front of him, and he must be blaming himself for not treating his wounds properly and only thinking about looking for me. Damn apocalypse, there's no way to deliver messages quickly. Thinking of this, Shu Xin felt her head hurting more and more. She really wanted to say: Jianqiu, my head hurts so much~ It's the first day I've been separated from Yan Mo. I miss him.
