Chapter 304: Chapter 304: The Struggle for the Mysterious Fire Fan

Liang Jiuhui also let out a sigh of relief. He didn’t know how Su Jin and Lu Hao managed to hold out for so long, but he felt at ease once he saw them finally returning to rest with the team.

Although it was already late in the evening, the plants outside the gate hadn’t been retracted by Su Jin, and Liang Jiuhui was organizing the remaining special ability users to continue fighting.

“Those plants are impressive; they should consume a good number of zombies if left out overnight,”

Li Haochu said, standing beside Liang Jiuhui.

“Over one night, at least ten thousand, I guess!”

Liang Jiuhui had just made a rough estimate in his mind.

...

By now, inside and outside the fence were scattered remains of shoes and clothes left by the man-eating flowers, along with many unsettling patches of hair, but everyone no longer found those gruesome remains disgusting. On the contrary, they even felt a sense of amusement.

Su Jin and her group hadn’t expected to be stopped on their way back.

Due to the zombie tide, many people in the base hadn’t rested, so the base was still brightly lit at this moment.

Besides the one woman and three men blocking the car, there were a dozen others standing by. Although the group in front had put on ingratiating smiles, they seemed to have bad intentions.

The group waited for a while, but when no one got out of the three vehicles, their expressions nearly collapsed.

The people in the two cars behind saw that Su Jin and the others hadn’t gotten out and, although they didn’t know what was happening, they had no intention of exiting the vehicles either.

Since they only planned to stay within the base today, Su Jin hadn’t equipped the three cars with walkie-talkies.

“What’s wrong with these people? I’m still waiting to go back and rest,”

Lin Xiuyuan complained.

Seeing that the group didn’t intend to move aside, Su Jin finally rolled down the car window.

“What’s the matter?” Su Jin asked, expressionless.

The tall woman at the front got a bit annoyed seeing they had only opened the window halfway. She seemed about to say something when a man behind her stopped her.

The man stepped forward and said to Su Jin, “Hello, we’re from the Red Flame Team. We witnessed your elegance today and sincerely aspire to it. We’d like to invite everyone out of the car for a chat.”

Although the window was only halfway open, Tao Kuan was still awed by Su Jin’s beauty while he spoke. He had only seen her from a distance and hadn’t expected such a powerful wood element ability user to also look so delicate and beautiful.

Su Jin didn’t understand what these people were thinking. Surely no one would be in the mood to “have a chat” with a bunch of strangers after slaughtering zombies for half a day, right?

“We need to hurry back to rest; we don’t have time to listen to your rambling,”

Lin Xiuyuan also rolled down the window on the passenger side and said.

Lu Hao sat next to Su Jin, and he hadn’t expected anyone to dare block their car inside the base. However, since Su Jin had told him to rest and not worry about it, he just sat back and watched with a smile, enjoying the feeling of being protected.

But the several people outside the window apparently hadn’t given up, and the tall woman said to Lin Xiuyuan, “We’ve come to discuss the zombie tide. Don’t you wish to cooperate?”

“What’s up? Spit it out; I’m listening,”

Lin Xiuyuan leaned on the car window and looked at them. His nonchalant attitude made Tao Kuan feel like he couldn’t continue with what he was about to say.

“Young man, here’s the deal. Our Red Flame Team has seven fire element ability users, including one at Level Three. We’re about to go outside the base to join the fight against the zombie tide, and we’d like to borrow the Treasured Fan from your group. We’ll definitely return it after use,”

Tao Kuan said amiably. Under normal circumstances, he wouldn’t have been confident about borrowing it, but since they were heading to fight the zombie tide, these people should weigh their decision, shouldn’t they?

“Are you trying to be funny?”

Lin Xiuyuan felt speechless. Why did they think they would lend them the fan?

“Dad, drive. Let’s go,”

Su Jin said coldly. There was no room for negotiation on this matter. She wasn’t interested in wasting time with idiots.

Su Xiangzhe, already used to people blocking their way, shook his head. Why did everyone like to stand in front of others’ cars these days? Did they really think he wouldn’t drive away?

Seeing the car ahead trying to leave, Tao Kuan gave a signal, and the dozen people behind those few suddenly blocked the entire road side by side!

Hey, Lin Xiuyuan was getting excited, did these people really think they could be bullied so easily?

“We are here to make a contribution to the base, borrowing your fan is just to kill a few more zombies, and we will return it to you, you should cooperate with us, shouldn’t you?!”

The tall woman spoke with righteous indignation, as if she was afraid that passersby wouldn’t hear her.

“Even if you were going to save the world, we still wouldn’t lend you the fan. And if you don’t move aside, don’t blame me for being unkind,”

Su Jin’s cold voice came from inside the car.

Everyone was very tired now, she simply didn’t want to waste another minute talking nonsense with these people.

“How dare you disregard the safety of the base, you…”

Another woman stepped forward, pointing at those inside the car, wanting to say something.

Su Jin was too lazy to talk anymore. A vine as thick as an arm appeared from her hand, binding the talking woman tightly. The vines were so tightly wound that the woman felt completely restrained, unable to struggle at all.

Tao Kuan and the others did not expect that Su Jin would dare to use her special ability against someone publicly in the base.

Su Jin then looked at the people blocking the road ahead. There were many of them, but that was not a problem, her special ability was still more than sufficient.

It wasn’t until a dozen people were bound by the circling vines and thrown to the side of the road, Tao Kuan and his group included, that Su Jin felt a bit better. She should have done this earlier. Didn’t it take less than two minutes to resolve?

Su Xiangzhe raised his eyebrows, looked at the wide road ahead, released the brake, and continued driving forward.

The people behind them seemed to still be shouting something at them, but Su Jin had already closed the car windows long ago.

“Ah, what kinds of people are there nowadays,”

Lu Guanhai leaned back helplessly in the car behind.

They hadn’t gotten out of the car, but they had heard what those people said. To resist the Zombie Tide? They were probably just envious of their fan, right?

“I’m afraid those people won’t let the matter rest so easily,”

Nie Qing said, he also hadn’t expected that people would come for the fan so soon; after all, the Mysterious Fire Fan had been kept unused in Su Jin’s space for so long it was almost moldy.

After the three cars left, the Security team also arrived, but only Ye Rongxin and two members behind him, as the rest had been dispatched by Ye Rongxin to the base’s city gate.

“Captain Ye, we are from the Red Flame Team. Just now, someone was openly using their special ability to commit violence in the base, and you must uphold justice for us!”

Tao Kuan said with an aggrieved look while lying on the ground, he wanted to sit up, but the vines were too tight for him to move.

Ye Rongxin squatted down and looked at the vines on these people.

There could only be one person in the whole base capable of this.

Recalling the decisive manner of the woman in white at the city gate today, Ye Rongxin stood up.

He looked at the few people on the ground and said, “You had to mess with her of all people?”

She is someone the Base Leader is looking after, after all.

Ye Rongxin said this and left, without paying any mind to the people on the ground.

“Captain Ye? Those people…”

A team member behind hesitated to ask, should they just leave the matter like this? This was not like Captain Ye’s style at all!

“The vines are tied well,”

Ye Rongxin walked towards the city gate without turning back.
