After Chen Qiao and the others left, the Fang Family, as usual, prepared to enter Qingmu Spiritual Mansion for Cultivation. But it was at this moment that Fang Yuxin’s walkie-talkie rang again.
"Miss Fang! Miss Fang! This is Zhou Yan, please hurry to the observation room, it’s urgent, please come as soon as possible!"
Zhou Yan’s voice was urgent, tinged with panic, and the noisy background noises made one feel tense subconsciously. Fang Yuxin realized something was wrong and quickly replied, "Wait for me, I’ll be right there!"
After she spoke, she turned off the walkie-talkie and frowned in an effort to remember. This time... this time... could it be...
She suddenly thought of something and immediately said to her family, "Dad, Mom, Brother, get changed. Something’s not right; we might have a fight tonight."
Fang Yuyang noticed her troubled expression and guessed that something was amiss, "Xinxin, what’s happening? Is it that dream? Did you dream about today’s events?"
In fact, Fang Yuxin hadn’t dreamt about what specifically happened in the Safe Zone that day. In her dreams, after she and Fang Yuyang were forced out of the villa by Fang Mengyao’s scheming, many people in the Safe Zone shunned them, so they simply entered the city and stealthily hid there. Although it was dangerous, their target was smaller, and at that time, they struggled to survive, scavenging supplies everywhere to stay alive.
So she had no idea what specifically would happen in the Safe Zone that day. She just remembered that since the population in the Safe Zone was so large, ever since the formation of the Corpse Tide, it had often been assaulted by the tides.
Thinking back to the previous discovery that more and more zombies were approaching the Safe Zone, she speculated whether a Corpse Tide had already formed and was preparing to assault the Safe Base.
However, this was just her guess. She wasn’t entirely sure, but having her family prepare was just a precautionary measure, which was better than fighting an uncertain battle.
If a Corpse Tide truly formed and attacked the Safe Zone, they, as members of the Safe Zone, would certainly have to contribute.
Fang Yuxin briefly shared her suspicions with her family and then said, "I’m going to the observation room to find Zhou Yan now. Brother, contact Chen Qiao and the others to get ready first."
The rest of the family was not at all at ease with Fang Yuxin going alone. Fang Yuyang spoke up, "I’d better go with you. We can notify Chen Qiao and the others on the way."
Time was pressing, and Fang Yuxin didn’t have time to say more. She nodded, quickly changed into protective gear, and left with Fang Yuyang at a brisk pace. To save time, they rode a motorcycle without hesitation.
When they arrived at the observation room, they found it overcrowded. Zhou Yan looked very upset. As soon as he saw Fang Yuxin and Fang Yuyang, he stepped forward quickly and said in a low voice, "There are too many injuries, it’s urgent, we couldn’t send them to the Safe Hospital in time, so they’re temporarily placed here. The zombie group outside has all gathered for some reason. A team that went out on a mission earlier was surrounded, and they were barely rescued back with many injuries, all here now. Those zombies have already closed in on the Safe Zone; it looks like we’re going to have a tough fight tonight."
The siblings silently nodded, their faces growing somber. Before, they were merely speculating, but now that speculation had turned into reality, making their hearts heavy.
Zhou Yan led Fang Yuxin into the observation room. Upon entering, the strong smell of blood mixed with the stench of decay assaulted their sense of smell, causing a reflexive urge to vomit and casting a sense of oppression over their spirits.
Aside from the injured, there were many Doctors rushing to treat the patients. This wasn’t a proper operating room, and they were using normal daylight fluorescent tubes, which provided bright lighting, yet, with people moving around, mottled and twisted shadows were left on the floors and walls.
Fang Yuxin noticed that Lin Feiyin wasn’t there. She couldn’t help but look at Zhou Yan, "Why isn’t Lin Feiyin here?"
Not only was Lin Feiyin a Doctor, but her superpower also included the ability to purify the Zombie Virus. This was an emergency call; she shouldn’t be absent, right?
Upon hearing her question, Zhou Yan’s face turned uglier; he seemed to think of something infuriating and said through gritted teeth, "She can’t come, she said she’s in Cultivation retreat."
"Retreat?" Fang Yuxin was even more astonished. What retreat at such a time? Moreover, Lin Feiyin didn’t have a treasure like Qingmu Spiritual Mansion; even if she was in retreat, she would be within the Safe Zone, wouldn’t it be easy to find her?
