Chapter 200: Proclaiming to the World

Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai froze for a moment when they saw Zhang Yiming’s photo.

Has the news about Zhang Yiming being a zombie been announced to the world so quickly?

Most people know that Fan Tangtang is a zombie.

But who figured out Zhang Yiming’s identity?

Bai Xiqin looked up, directly meeting Captain Zhu’s deep eyes.

Bai Yifan stared at Zhang Yiming’s photo in disbelief for a long time.

The Brother Zhang who gave him milk powder was a High Rank Zombie?

This... is it a dream?

Bai Yifan swallowed hard, opened his mouth wanting to ask if someone made a mistake with the photo.

But he couldn’t open his mouth, his body felt as if it was being pressed down by a thousand-pound stone.

Bai Xiqin’s fingers moved slightly, controlling Bai Yifan, and calmly nodded at the approaching Captain Zhu.

Captain Zhu’s stern face showed a slight smile, but it was a standard smile, his eyes remained cold.

Captain Zhu gave people a different feeling now.

Previously, to ensure the survival of the survivors, he would seriously investigate every corner, always being the first one to charge.

Now, there was no longer the same determination in his eyes. Raising mutated ant queens leads to uncontrollable consequences.

Yet he raised ten.

On the surface, he maintained an image of protecting survivors, but there was a lack of sincerity.

The people at the entrance of the safety base were discussing loudly, their faces full of disbelief.

Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai didn’t linger, and without seeing their family, they directly squeezed through the crowd and entered the safety base.

Bai Yifan’s legs felt like they were filled with lead, following Bai Xiqin like a marionette.

His mind was still somewhat chaotic.

"Sis, I can walk on my own."

Bai Yifan couldn’t move his head, his eyes darted towards Bai Xiqin.

Just now, when he almost lost control, his sister used control power to hold his body in check, preventing him from showing anything abnormal to outsiders.

"Oh."

Bai Xiqin moved her fingers, withdrawing all her control power.

Thud.

Bai Yifan straightforwardly knelt on the ground.

Leng Yebai silently looked at Bai Yifan kneeling in front of him, took out a crystal core from his pocket, and, after getting Bai Xiqin’s approval, handed it to Bai Yifan.

Bai Yifan: ...

The earth’s gravity is so strong!

At least there’s an unexpected gain!

Bai Yifan shakily stood up from the ground, put the crystal core in his pocket, and still lamented Brother Zhang’s tragic fate.

Brother Zhang was a High Rank Zombie; he had given several cans of milk powder, he shouldn’t be this miserable!

Bai Yifan sighed, feeling sad for Brother Zhang.

Brother Zhang was a zombie, he surely didn’t have a sense of pain, even if he was cut N times, as long as his brain wasn’t hurt, he could still be lively.

A High Rank Zombie could easily command Low Rank Zombies, no need to fear being chased by zombies when going out, and he could gather a bunch of loyal little brothers.

No need to worry about viral infection issues.

It’s simply like having an anti-zombie special effect!

... So tragic~

Bai Yifan clicked his tongue, it felt like something wasn’t right!

Looking at a zombie’s rotten and smelly body still being lively, it might even have a longer lifespan than humans!

Seems that becoming a High Rank Zombie like Brother Zhang is... rather good?

What scares people the most about zombies, besides bloodthirstiness, is the decaying shell, which Brother Zhang seemingly doesn’t have to worry about.

Bai Yifan thought to himself, this might be the cutest form of becoming a little cutie.

The three of them remained silent as they returned to the bus.

The Bai Family sat on the sofa absorbing crystal cores.

They had already seen the photos at the entrance, knowing Zhang Yiming was a zombie.

After learning this, they felt quite regretful.

Especially Wang Yiyun and Liu Jing, they deeply regretted not properly aiding their classmate Zhang Yiming!

Zhang Yiming, such a handsome and polite zombie, was quite appreciated by Funeral Masters and forensic doctors.

Besides regret, the Bai Family worked even harder to absorb crystal cores.

Right around them, they had two High Rank Zombies, knowing they wouldn’t harm them, but other High Rank Zombies were not harmless.

The abilities of High Rank Zombies are unquestionable.

Even without intelligence, Low Level Zombies that only know to devour flesh already make people overwhelmed.

And having High Rank Zombies with human-level intelligence, if they are enemies, they are surely formidable!

On the surface, Bai Family members seem brash, even taunting each other, but they cherish every family member dearly.

Even though Mr. Bai always complains about Bai Yifan, in a crisis he’d undoubtedly put his life on the line to save his filial son.

Actually, when Mr. Bai heard Bai Xiqin’s dream about "keeping resources within family" regarding Bai Yifan.

He didn’t show much expression, even boastfully said as long as he’s not the one being eaten, he’s fine.

In reality, he felt even worse than anyone.

No matter how foolish his child may be, he’d never harm him.

For this reason, a lawyer like Mr. Bai who firmly believes in materialism could rapidly transform into someone striving to become a High Rank Superpower User.

After Bai Xiqin’s group got on the bus, they didn’t speak much, grabbing crystal cores to start absorbing superpowers.

They’ve been staying in the safety base, absorbing crystal cores every day, but lacked practical skills.

Mr. Bai glanced at the disintegrated crystal core in his hand, looked up at Bai Xiqin, and said, "Why don’t we go on a trip tomorrow!"

Remaining in one place, progress will always be limited.

Bai Yifan was somewhat reluctant to leave his recently reunited schoolmate Zhao Zhen, but understands that in the apocalypse, stagnation and constant peace are fatal.

"Sure!"

Bai Xiqin smiled.

That’s exactly what she wanted.

The matter of the lab already has a clue; Captain Zhu definitely has a problem.

But he’s now a high-ranking member of Fire Phoenix Safety Base, hidden deeply, so giving up investigating is not possible.

Then let’s do something big tonight, and flee tomorrow.

"Tomorrow?" Bai Yifan frowned, "I still want to say goodbye to Brother Zhang! What if he thinks we know he’s a High Rank Zombie and stop talking to him, wouldn’t he be very sad?"

"Tomorrow we’ll drive to visit him as a family!" Wang Yiyun’s eyes lit up.

Zombie lair, doesn’t it mean there are lots of zombies?

... Well, Wang Yiyun has a somewhat impolite request, hoping Zhang Yiming can understand.

"Alright, alright, we all go to see him!"

Liu Jing nodded vigorously.

By the way, ask Zhang Yiming if he has any wounds needing stitching, her fingers are already eager to thread the needle!

Mr. Bai and Bai Zhengxuan’s cheek twitched.

So, are they going to a zombie lair together?

Why does it feel like their legs are shaking?

They are just retired teachers and lawyers, and after the apocalypse, they must be more determined than superheroes?

So miserable, so miserable.

Wang Yiyun and Liu Jing’s eyes were frighteningly bright, the men of the Bai Family didn’t dare say anything.

Let’s go, then!

There’s no use in saying no.

After "happily" discussing, the Bai Family continued to absorb crystal cores.

On the other side.

In the villa area of Fire Phoenix Safety Base, inside a two-story small villa.

A seven or eight-year-old boy kept crying, a pair of middle-aged couple, faces adorned with smiles, coaxed the child using snacks.

"Daddy and mommy are bad! You ruined Little Bao’s hidden family photo and cut off brother, boo hoo..."

Tears fell from Zhang Yibao’s eyes, his lips puckered, looking very aggrieved.
