Chapter 144: Chapter 144: Discussion

“It must be Su Jin and the others. Miaomiao said they were all very powerful,” Liang Jiuqing said impatiently.

“Is it those people?”

Sitting in the passenger seat, Liang Jiuhui had already seen the situation at the basketball court ahead.

“Where where where?”

Liang Jiuqing rolled down the window, stuck her head out, and looked for a while, but because the distance was too far, she still couldn’t see clearly.

“My god, Captain Liang, what are they doing?” the driver Xiao Liu exclaimed, surprised by the people in the basketball court.

In the basketball court, apart from the dead zombie bodies on the ground, there was a group of people using all sorts of Special Abilities to attack the remaining zombies. Those zombies had almost no power to fight back and were quickly dealt with by the group.

The driver, Xiao Liu, watched in astonishment, even forgetting to press the gas pedal.

“Is this… Survivors killing zombies?” Xu Shi said, surprised.

They discovered that besides those attacking the zombies, there were also a few people sitting on the benches by the court, chatting and laughing.

There was even a couple flirting with each other?

And a little girl squatting over there, digging out Crystal Cores?

…

Interesting, Liang Jiuhui smiled.

Since the Apocalypse, this was the first time he had seen such a harmonious scene.

“It looks like they’re coming this way. Stop fooling around,” Mrs. Su Lin Tianhui shouted. Just now, Guo Yang had somehow angered Liao Yifan again and was chased around the rest area several times, making her dizzy.

Su Jin and Lu Hao had already stood up because that car had stopped at the entrance to the basketball court.

Liang Jiuqing hopped out of the car and called Su Jin’s name excitedly.

This loud voice sounded like…

Is it Liang Jiuqing?

“It’s her,” Lu Hao said.

“Why are they here?” Su Jin couldn’t help asking, hoping it wasn’t what she thought.

In the meantime, Liang Jiuqing and others had already walked over.

“Su Jin, I didn’t expect we’d find you so easily!” Liang Jiuqing’s powerful voice was just as forceful as ever.

Seeing that the newcomers were Liang Jiuqing and her group, everyone relaxed their guard, at least knowing they were not complete strangers.

There were a few people following behind Liang Jiuqing whom Su Jin didn’t recognize, and she hadn’t seen them last time at the Refuge either.

“This is my brother, Liang Jiuhui,”

Liang Jiuqing said with a smile, her bright white teeth especially noticeable.

“Hello,”

Su Jin concealed her surprise and greeted him, thinking to herself, that matter had been resolved so quickly?

Lu Hao had already heard this name from Su Jin, but he didn’t show much reaction, just politely said hello.

“Hello, my name is Liang Jiuhui, Jiuqing’s brother. I want to thank you for helping Jiuqing last time,” Liang Jiuhui stepped forward and said.

“We just happened to be passing by. What are you doing here today?” Su Jin asked, pretending she didn’t know anything.

Liang Jiuqing looked around and saw that there were no strangers present, just the family members and teammates of Su Jin she had met last time. So, she repeated the purpose of their visit today.

“Really?”

Su Jin pretended to be very surprised and asked.

“Yes, yes, it’s just that we still don’t understand the current situation nearby, so it’s a good opportunity to ask you all first.”

During the conversation, Liang Jiuhui and the people behind him widened their eyes as they watched the group busy digging up Crystal Cores on the side. The little girl had already dug up some and put them in a small basket, letting an adult with a Water Ability help her clean them.

The bodies of the Zombies had also been gathered together, and a Fire Element Ability User was applying Fire Element Ability on the Zombie corpses, seemingly planning to incinerate them.

“Your fire isn’t good enough, how long is it going to take to burn all of this?” Nie Qing disdainfully looked at the Small Fireball that Lu Guanhai was using.

Lu Guanhai was also somewhat depressed, when Lu Hao burned the Zombie bodies before, it seemed to be done very quickly. Why was it so difficult when it was his turn?

“Apprentice! Throw some fire over here!” Nie Qing called out.

Lu Hao felt somewhat helpless but stepped forward and threw a Special Ability Fire backhand. The flames quickly spread to all the Zombie bodies, and in an instant, a roaring inferno was burning.

Liang Jiuhui watched this group that was already cooperating very well and couldn’t help but fall silent.

Before this, these people in their eyes were Survivors who needed to be protected, just like those people in the safe Refuges. Soldiers protecting civilians should be a matter of course, but now, after seeing these people, it dawned on him that the world had changed, and it might not be entirely up to the military to protect civilians anymore.

Seeing that these people did not seem to be planning to leave anytime soon, Su Jin invited them to their living quarters to continue the discussion, as it was too improper for a group of people to stand around talking.

The few of them were very eager, curious about the interior layout of these villas and also quite interested in the group; Liang Jiuhui became extremely interested in them as well.

The main hall of the villa was large enough that even with so many new arrivals, there was ample seating for everyone.

Local Tyrant Gold, seeing so many unfamiliar faces he had never met before, appraised them from atop the coffee table for a while, then went out to the yard to look for Mao Qiqi.

They even kept a pet, which was something ordinary people couldn’t do when they could barely sustain themselves.

But looking at these people, they didn’t seem like the type who couldn’t fend for themselves, they even had sunflower seeds and peanuts to offer them!

“These, we found them when we were clearing Zombies from the villas a few days ago, don’t be shy,” Su Jin modestly said, while also making clear the origin of these items.

“So, you are searching for a safe base?”

After the casual conversation died down, the topic finally moved to the main subject, and Lu Hao started to chat with Liang Jiuhui.

“Yes, outside of S City, many places have already started to build safe Refuges. After all, a Refuge is only a temporary solution,” and this Apocalypse seems to be gearing up for a protracted war!

Lu Hao nodded and said, “If we are considering the long term, this place is a good choice.”

“How so?”

Liang Jiuhui also wanted to hear Lu Hao’s opinion.

“This area, being in the middle and upper reaches of the river due to the terrain, is easy to defend but hard to attack once we build up the base walls, and moreover, it is far from the surrounding provinces and cities,” Lu Hao shared his thoughts.

The first two points Liang Jiuhui had also considered, but why should it be far from other provinces and cities?

Seeing Liang jiuhui’s confusion, Lu Hao continued to explain, “To prevent Zombie Tides.”

Liang Jiuhui felt like he was awakened by a single sentence.

Right, if two bases are close to each other, first of all, the likelihood of attracting Zombies becomes double. And if one base encounters danger, the other is very likely to be affected as well, maybe even doubly so!

Previously, they had only thought of building the base in a place with fewer Zombies, but never considered these aspects. It seems that they also need to change their thinking.

“That makes sense, Lu Hao!” Liang Jiuqing understood and slapped the table, startling everyone in the room.

Liang Jiuhui held his forehead, wondering if his sister could ever get married.
