Chapter 528: Chapter 227 Rescue Success_1
Diving Pool.
General, Prison Head, and Kong Xiu sat on the ground with pale faces. Their mental state wasn’t great.
“General, do you really have no food left at all?”
Kong Xiu asked weakly.
This was the third time he had asked in the past hour.
“None, we’ve eaten it all.”
The General shook his head.
“Damn it! If they don’t come soon, I’ll starve to death!”
Prison Head was visibly irritable.
He cast some unfriendly glances at the other survivors, his eyes reddening slightly.
Feeling the chill in the General’s gaze, Prison Head sheepishly averted his eyes and then asked through clenched teeth:
“That bitch… she couldn’t have abandoned us, could she?”
“No. She will save us.”
The General spoke up.
“How can you have so much faith in her?”
Prison Head glared at him.
“Because she is a smart person.”
They were all elite survivors from Zijing City. If they all died, who would combat the zombies in the future? The zombies evolved much faster than humans!
Every powerful survivor was a precious asset in the fight against the zombies.
Lan Yulian was a smart person, and it was highly unlikely that she would abandon them.
Even if Lan Yulian wanted these leaders to die, she certainly wouldn’t want other survivors to be buried along with them.
So the General felt that as long as Lan Yulian was capable, and since he had given her many benefits, she would definitely try to save people.
If it were Prison Head instead of Lan Yulian, then the General would have no hope at all, knowing that if Prison Head had the chance, he would definitely kill everyone else without considering the consequences…
However, explaining all of this would be a waste of physical strength, and the General didn’t want to say too much. After all, the more strength he preserved, the greater his chances of survival.
“Forget it…”
Prison Head was just asking casually.
He didn’t really want to know the reason, he just wanted to go back, to eat meat, drink wine, sleep with women!
He was so hungry…
“Crackle…”
Suddenly, the General’s walkie-talkie crackled to life.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
“I’m Lan Yulian, I’m coming to save you.”
Just those two sentences instantly revitalized the three men.
“This is General, what do you want us to do?”
The General quickly responded.
“How much combat power do you still have?”
Lan Yulian asked.
The General turned back to look at the wilted crowd and said somewhat helplessly:
“None at all.”
“…” Lan Yulian was silent for a moment before responding, “Alright, then you all just wait. We’ll be there in a bit. But if you don’t have any combat power, we might not be able to save everyone in one go. We’ll have to do it in several batches. Prepare on your side and wait for my message.”
Extracting so many people from a crowd of zombies was fraught with danger. If they had no combat power, they couldn’t save too many people at once, or it would definitely lead to disaster.
“Okay!”
The General nodded.
After exchanging a few more words, Lan Yulian ended the conversation.
The General looked toward Prison Head and Kong Xiu.
“You all heard, let’s get ready. They’ll be here soon.”
“Finally, they’re coming!”
Kong Xiu was close to tears.
After the apocalypse began, he was one of the luckier ones, hardly ever short on food. These last few days at the Diving Pool had been the most deprived of food he’d ever been; it was the first time he realized how painful hunger could be. He was almost going crazy…
“Damn that bitch! I suspect she deliberately delayed until now. Once I’m free, she’ll get what’s coming to her!”
Prison Head said hatefully.
Hearing this, the General gave him a look as if gazing at a dead man.
But he said nothing more, immediately stood up and began to arrange for the survivors to form teams.
Elsewhere.
Outside the Diving Pool, Lan Yulian said to Wang Tao:
“I’ve notified the General. He will coordinate with us.”
“Hmm.” Wang Tao nodded and then looked into the distance, “Let’s wait for the second team’s news.”
The second team was assigned to attract the zombies. They had to cause a disturbance first, drawing some zombies away.
About half an hour later.
A moderate electronic horn sounded from the east.
Zombies had very sensitive hearing, and those outside the Diving Pool quickly caught on. Some zombies remained inert, while others began moving eastward.
“Good.”
Wang Tao, watching from a distance, nodded approvingly.
The second team was truly among Zijing City’s elite. Although their strength wasn’t the strongest, their experience was very rich.
The noise they generated was just right, attracting zombies from around the Diving Pool, but not enough to draw a large number of Mad Demon Zombies.
As long as they weren’t swamped by a horde of zombies, or ran into some particularly formidable ones, they were relatively safe to drive away in their familiar vehicles, and if necessary, they could make a quick escape.
Ten minutes later.
Seeing that some zombies near the Diving Pool had been lured away, and the ones that remained were still indifferent, Wang Tao waved to the people behind him.
“Begin the operation!”
“Yes!”
Teams one and three, led by Lu Yingfeng, charged toward the Diving Pool.
Their arrival immediately caught the attention of the zombies.
“Hehe…”
“Roar…”
Team one consisted of Level 3 ability users. Against these not-so-strong zombies, they were basically overpowering. They quickly cleared a path.
The members of team three, seeing the Level 3 combat power of team one, were deeply amazed and envious.
“So this is Level 3! Truly formidable!”
