Chapter 172: Chapter 172: Witness

Su Jin and the others said they didn’t mind, as they had come out today to collect crystal cores and didn’t plan on asking for help.

Moreover, what Li Haochu said was right; those were survivors without combat experience. If they had come down to help, there might have been casualties.

“So, are you also practicing killing zombies today?” Li Haochu asked, even though they were already so powerful, they were still intensely practicing—it was really spirited!

“Yes, we only started today,” Lu Hao nodded in response.

“Alright, alright, continue then. I’ll take these people over first. I am Li Haochu, and if you need anything at the base in the future, you can always find me.”

Seeing that these people had no intention of connecting with him, Li Haochu didn’t mind and waved them off and walked away. If only all survivors were like them, that would be great.

“Who are they?” the driver, Old Liu, asked, sitting next to Li Haochu.

“A group of fierce survivors,” Li Haochu said with full admiration.

“Really incredible, so impressive!”

After saying that, Old Liu focused on driving. The roads in the apocalypse were very difficult to navigate, not only because of the various obstacles that appeared from time to time on the ground but also because of the zombies that might crash into them. However, after driving into City West, he felt much more relaxed and judged by the route, they should be arriving soon.

After seeing those people leave, Su Jin and the others also finished collecting crystal cores and prepared to move to the next street.

“Girl, girl, I’m afraid I won’t be able to join you in the fight later!”

Nie Qing’s voice came through the walkie-talkie.

?!!

“What happened, Uncle Nie?”

Su Jin was startled by Nie Qing’s words, could it be?

Even Lin Xiuyuan asked anxiously what was going on.

“What I mean is, I might be leveling up…” Nie Qing really didn’t intend to scare everyone; he didn’t expect everyone to be so concerned about his safety.

“You scared me, Uncle Nie, could you say the last part first next time?” Lin Xiuyuan complained.

“I can’t do it…”

Nie Qing pinched his throat and said, while Lu Guanhai made a face as if he was about to vomit, looking at him with disdain.

Knowing that Nie Qing might level up soon, Su Jin planned to let Nie Qing stay in the car alone later—of course, with the air conditioning on.

Although it was early autumn now, and the weather had cooled down a lot, keeping a person shut in a car was still hazardous.

So, when they arrived at the next street, Nie Qing obediently stayed in the car alone.

On the second street, Su Jin and her group encountered three mutated zombies, one of which was a Power Element.

“The Power Element one is mine,”

Liao Yifan said as she threw the watermelon knife aside and began engaging in a barehanded fight with the Power Element zombie.

“Sister Yifan is really incredible!”

Mao Qiqi watched as Liao Yifan completely overwhelmed the Power Element zombie and exclaimed in admiration.

Liao Yifan’s every move was professionally trained. Although zombies didn’t feel pain, she still forced the Power Element zombie, also a Power Element like herself, to retreat step by step!

Bang!

The Power Element zombie was kicked by Liao Yifan in the waist and directly slammed into a small sedan a few meters away.

Su Jin also reassuredly shifted her focus and concentrated on killing the approaching Water Element zombie.

While Lu Hao kept an eye on everyone’s safety, killing the ordinary zombies around, suddenly, a mutated zombie ran out of an alley on the side of the street and unleashed a barrage of ice spikes at them!

“How lucky, finally an Ice Element Zombie!”

Lin Xiuyuan perked up, ready to face the Ice Element Zombie.

“Be careful, it’s Level Two,” Lu Hao cautioned.

Lin Xiuyuan was only a Level One Ice-based, so facing a Level Two Ice Element Zombie, Lu Hao was somewhat worried.

However, moments later, he realized he had been overly concerned. Even as a Level One, Lin Xiuyuan didn’t fall short against the Level Two Ice Element Zombie; in fact, it was the Level Two Mutated Zombie that kept defending against Lin Xiuyuan’s fierce attacks.

“I’d also like a Wind Element Zombie to play with. What about you, Lu Hao?”

Xue Wanyi felt chopping down ordinary zombies was becoming boring, so he simply chatted with Lu Hao while continuing to fight.

“Yeah, I’d like that too,”

Lu Hao replied, the Water Element Zombie he wanted had just been taken by Su Jin, and now the Ice Element had been snatched by Lin Xiuyuan…

Huang Yunxiang and Lin Tianzhen had been watching the Water Element Zombie’s combat methods, trying to discover some new tactics, but Su Jin hardly gave the zombie any chance to retaliate, dealing a few hits before directly exploding its head with vines.

“…”

Su Jin hadn’t expected everyone to be so eager for Mutated Zombies.

But thinking about the last time around, humanity had also had a relatively easier time in the earlier period, but after that rainstorm, the number of Mutated Zombies had surged, and so too had the Mutated Crystal Nuclei, marking the real rise of the Special Ability Users.

That day, Su Jin and the others had cleared seven or eight streets in one breath, estimating they had killed over 1500 zombies. Due to the sheer number, they didn’t burn the bodies.

When Li Haochu and the others returned in the empty vehicle that afternoon, they stopped to stare at the ground full of zombie corpses.

“These were killed by those people?”

The driver, Old Liu, stared wide-eyed at the piles of zombie corpses by the road.

Li Haochu didn’t speak, only nodding silently.

The kill power of that group was comparable to their battalion of several hundred people, who additionally used firearms and other weapons in combat. Yet, this group had killed so many zombies in just one day using just Special Abilities and physical strength!

“Let’s go,”

Li Haochu said to the driver.

It seemed he had underestimated them after all…

So, just how powerful were these people?!

Actually, Su Jin and the team were also exhausted today, having depleted both their Special Abilities and physical energy before returning to Dragon Leap Villa. At a considerable distance from Dragon Leap Villa, they noticed Earth Element Ability Users already digging foundations.

“Huh? Are they starting to build a base so far away?” Mao Zhihang exclaimed in surprise.

“That seems to be the case. Dragon Leap Villa is only part of the base. To accommodate more survivors, that place alone isn’t enough,”

Su Jin recalled the S City base from her previous life, which was incredibly large, at least the size of a county town.

It was considered the largest base in Hua Country at that time, and that villa area was the central zone of the base, where many of the base’s dignitaries and powerful Special Ability Users resided.

She hadn’t expected that this time she would have the opportunity to witness the rise of a large base firsthand, and she and the entire team had already secured the best position in the entire base.

However, she felt their current strength in all aspects was still far from sufficient, especially their economic strength. The so-called economic foundation determines the superstructure, and she wondered how smoothly Guo Yang’s store procedures were going today.

As she was thinking, the vehicle arrived at the villa’s gate, where Mao Qiqi in the car saw a note stuck on the villa’s door.

Mao Zhihang got out of the car to read it, seeing it written: “Tomorrow night Miao Miao and I will come to visit you, Jiuqing left this.”

Su Jin couldn’t help but laugh. Even Liang Jiuqing was thinking so meticulously now?
