Lord of End of World

After the wave of the zombies in the middle of the night, some evolved zombies arrived and attempted to rush into the base, but were killed by soldiers and ability users who were stationed in the first line of defense. At dawn, the defensive battle on Lancang Bridge finally ended. The base quickly sent helicopters to check on the situation.

In the past, zombies tried to enter the base for food, but the number was always very small. They often appeared near the border without crossing the safe area. The defense force responsible for protecting the farmers had shot and killed a few like the massive zombie wave last night. But, for the first time, it was no longer safe to think that the safe area was safe for plantation. The food grown had definitely not been seen by the large group of zombies that had crossed the border and would no longer be fit for consumption anymore.

The helicopter that had went out to investigate the situation had not returned yet. As the smog in the early morning sky disappeared, the earth shook several times in succession, followed by a second and third zombie wave. The military concentrated all its forces and strictly guarded the first line of defense, to prevent more than a thousand people from being killed after the zombies broke into the base.

This was the first major crisis that they had faced since the establishment of the base. People felt uncertain and, worriedly looked up at the sky covered by clouds.

However, the group Young Master Gong led, as always, quickly dispelled this depressing atmosphere. This cheered up the public and showed the new entrants to the base what it meant to ’kill zombies’.

They first staged the disgusting ’pit kill’ and then directed the scutellaria vine to cruelly kill zombies.Then they dazzled everyone with their stunts and violent methods to murder zombies. Their active and exciting performance didn’t seem like fighting, but more like a killing-spree. It was such a sad sight that the other members of the seven teams shed crocodile tears for the zombies who came to attack the base.

A group of townspeople and members of other groups who cooperated with each other had tacit understanding between them. Without mercy, they ruthlessly killed the zombies at the first line of defense fiercely to maintain control of the area.

From early morning to noon, the sieges of the evolved zombies gradually decreased and the helicopter that went to the city center to check out the situation were finally back. They brought news of a strong earthquake that happened in the city center. Because of wanting to avoid the earthquake, it led to the migration of large groups of zombies. The evolved zombies quickly fled and eventually, rushed to their base. The primary zombies followed behind them in droves.

However, the primary zombies were ant-like existences to ability users and there was not enough reason to worry about them.

Gong Lixin had been fighting using his powers, but a subtle noise suddenly stopped his movements. He looked up towards the mountain behind the base and his expression became solemn. Waiting for the second noise, he hurriedly left the front line and, rushed towards the mountain.

The mountain was just behind the base and was less than a hundred meters high. It was a natural landmark and was used by workers to collect limestones. A layer of steel wire fences were installed on both sides of the road to prevent gravel from rolling onto the road and causing car accidents.

When Gong Lixin arrived at the mountain road, there were a few pieces of gravel falling from the top of the mountain and towards the protective fence, generating sparks. Gong Lixin approached the mountain, crouched for a while and kept his ears to the ground before he swiftly rushed to the command center after calming down.

People looked on with hot eyes filled with admiration when they saw how Young Master Gong’s figure flew from the mountain to the base when he was on the move. Regardless of how long or how often they watched, Young Master Gong’s every move still filled them with admiration. Although some had the same ability as him, Young Master Gong’s body movement looked ethereal, extraordinary and refined, as if he were a celestial being.

When Gong Lixin knocked on the door of the command center, Gong Xiangyi had taken two doctors with her to conduct a medical examination on Father Gong. After the funerals had started last night, Father Gong felt unwell and almost fainted. This worried Gong Xiangyi, so she forced him to stop his official duties and check with a doctor.

As early as a few months ago, Lin Wenbo kicked her out of the third group because of Gong Xiangyi’s repeated embezzlement of goods. The two people got into their most serious quarrel in history and then entered a long cold war. Grandfather Lin, Song Haoran and Gong Lixin had long been ignoring her. Nowadays, Father Gong was her only refuge and if she no longer had her father, it could be said that she would be struggling on the base. Therefore, she was afraid that Father Gong would leave her.

"Lixin, was there a problem with the defense line at Lancang Bridge?" Seeing his youngest child with a solemn expression, Father Gong dismissed the two doctors and asked directly.

"Dad, are you sick?" Gong Lixin didn’t answer, but turned to face the two doctors with his brows tightly wrinkled.

Seeing Young Master Gong’s worried eyes, the two doctors quickly explained, "Young Master Gong, please rest assured that the Head only has a little high blood pressure. Taking some antihypertensive drugs is enough and there won’t be any big problem."

"Really? Thank you, doctor." Gong Lixin’s tense heart loosened. He continued on, "Are there antihypertensive drugs on the base? If we don’t have it, I’ll go to the city to find it now."

"On the last mission of the seventh group, many drugs were brought back and they are still good for use. There’s no need to go out to look for medicine again." The two doctors quickly waved their hands and praised Young Master Gong’s filial piety. Now, not only were zombies raging in the city, but there was also a strong earthquake. For the sake of the Head, Young Master Gong would brave such danger. Raising such a filial son, the head of the family truly was blessed.

Gong Yuanhang also felt very moved and quickly took hold of his son to discourage him to go out. He also asked the doctor to quickly give him a few bottles of antihypertensive drugs to prove that the number of drugs on base was sufficient for his son’s insurance.

When Gong Xiangyi looked at the picture of the two father and son her heart felt sour. But she had to admit that in this second world, Gong Lixin was extremely filial to their father. In her last life, if their father didn’t leave, Gong Lixin might not have changed and become so distorted.

After assuring himself that Father Gong’s body had no problems, Gong Lixin remembered his business and quickly said, "Dad, you have to immediately put out an order. Tell all personnel in the base to quickly evacuate, the mountain in the back will collapse."

"What?" Gong Yuanhang and Gong Xiangyi yelled in unison and instantly got up from their chair.

"How do you know that the mountain is going to collapse?" Gong Xiangyi set her mind and looked at Gong Lixin with eyes full of doubt.

"I heard the cracking inside of the mountain. Now the mountain is still cracking. We must leave within two hours or we will be buried in rocks." Gong Lixin pointed to his ears as he calmly stated.

"How did I not hear anything?" Gong Xiangyi still didn’t believe and doubtfully asked. Evacuation? Where will they withdraw to? She had finally built a base belonging to Gong family, but she could only keep it for just a year? Was she destined to repeat the tragedy from her previous life? Thinking of that, she felt cold and didn’t want to leave at all.

Gong Yuanhang trusted his son’s judgement and was immediately convinced. His son could hear the sound of a falling feather ten meters away. He would not be mistaken if he heard the cracks in the mountain. Thinking of that, he looked serious and quickly told the soldiers to rush to the radio station and issued the order, saying that ’the mountain was cracking and all staff were to evacuate’.

The base was full of people and everyone heard the broadcast, but no one immediately executed the order. This base had held for a year. They had fought here, worked, lived and had long regarded it as home with a deep sense of belonging. Now, they didn’t even see the shadow of the mountain cracking so, telling them to leave, of course they were reluctant. Most of them didn’t believe it, and wanted to wait and see.

The ability users who were fighting on the front line and the zombie tide also heard the sound of the radio. They quickly dispatched the team members back to the base to inquire. The six district leaders also rushed to the headquarters and surrounded it.

Time was life. These people were still asking questions left and right and wasted their time. Gong Lixin was extremely intolerant in his heart and he walked away and went to the broadcast room.

"I’m Gong Lixin. Everyone, listen up. The mountain at the back will collapse soon. If you don’t want to be buried alive, please pack up and evacuate within two hours." Gong Lixin took the microphone from the soldier releasing the order and strictly warned everyone.

After saying it once, he didn’t have the patience to repeat it over and over again. He immediately left the broadcasting room and rushed to the front line in order to replace Li Dongsheng. He asked him to pack the things for their team members and help the base to carry supplies. In a year, Gong Lixin deeply realized that with a space ability user in hand, he had no inconvenience in the world. Whatever nuclei he didn’t keep, he would feed it to Li Dongsheng and upgrade him into a second-class high-grade ability user. The area in his space had also greatly expanded from his original thirty square meter to the size of a football field. Now that the base had to move, Li Dongsheng was just the right person to help out.

Hearing the clear voice of Young Master Gong on the radio, the people on the base no longer had a wait and see attitude, and they quickly went back to their dormitory to pack things up without delay. The district leaders and the ability users who had gone to ask Gong Yuanhang about the situation at the headquarter also immediately retired and went to organize the evacuation. In such a situation, it showed the persuasiveness of the words spoken by ’Young Master Gong’.

His son had solved the problem so simply in front of his eyes. Gong Yuanhang felt relieved and looked at Gong Xiangyi who was still in a daze. He urged her, "Go back, pack up and get ready to leave."

"Dad, if we leave here, where will we go?" Gong Xiangyi asked.

"Let’s leave first before we decide. Where we go is not decided by me alone. When we are safe, we will hold a meeting and discuss it." Gong Yuanhang frowned before striding away.

Inside the base, with Gong Lixin’s warning, no one dare to delay and soon packed their things and moved onto the trucks. Those things that could be transported, were transported away and everything else was left behind. After waiting for people to leave, more than a dozen helicopters were loaded with material and flew to the gas station forty kilometers away. That was a safe landing point designated by Young Master Gong.

At the front, the zombies were still coming and, in order to ensure the safe evacuation of the people on the base, the ability users were still struggling to fight. When the people were all evacuated, Gong Lixin asked Luo Dahai to fill the bridge with seeds of wire vine. After making them grow, he quickly left with the ability users and took one of the several trucks waiting near the base.

The wire vine was like a wire and had a very strong toughness. After making it grow, it would cover the bridge as densely as a spider web. Although the strength of the evolved zombies were great, it took a lot of effort to break the spider-like wire vines, which gave the ability users enough time to evacuate.

When the zombies finally broke free from the vine, the base had already been emptied.

An evolved zombie sniffed the strong scent of human population lingering around base and, after plundering and smashing around the debris, chased them to the gas station forty kilometers away. But before reaching it, the sound of continuous cracking became louder and large rocks began to drop on the door and fell over them, turning them into crushed meat. After a few more seconds, the entire limestone mountain suddenly burst with a roaring sound before falling apart, burying the base, the zombies and the highway. Smoke rose in the sky and covered it to the point that, even dozens of kilometers away, the smoke could be seen.
