"No good! It’s the Zombie Group!"
Someone screamed in panic, and then Feng Yue and his men’s faces changed drastically, looking fearfully in the direction where the beacon of smoke was rising.
Feng Yue quickly regained his composure and said to Bai Ye and the others, "A Zombie Group has been spotted not far away, I have to take my men over for the rescue, so I’ll have to ask you friends to wait a bit longer, sorry!"
He knew Bai Ye and his companions were formidable, but he dared not ask for their help, worried about angering them.
Even with his strength, he still felt afraid when facing a Zombie Group, experiencing the sensation of death drawing near. It was precisely because of this that he was so eager to improve his strength, to no longer fear those Zombie Groups.
But, he had failed to level up!
Thinking about it made him feel a heavy sense of unease. The smoke signals were numerous, clearly indicating a very urgent situation this time, and he didn’t know if he could return alive if he were to go.
Because the settlement’s defenses were so rudimentary, every time a Zombie Group was spotted, he had to lead his men to confront the enemy, to prevent the Zombie Group from breaking through the defense lines and getting close to the settlement. Should that happen, the whole settlement would likely be in danger!
Perhaps the meeting with Bai Ye and the others had changed his attitude; he no longer saw his men as meaningless numbers, instead, he seriously valued their lives!
Worried about the people outside meeting with misfortune, he didn’t dare delay. After explaining to Bai Ye and the others, he ordered his men, "Now! Everyone who can fight, grab your weapons and follow me, the rest stay at the Base to defend. Remember, we must not let the zombies breach the Base!"
"Yes! Brother Feng!" all his men responded in unison. Almost two-thirds of them stood up, armed, indicating they would join Feng Yue in confronting the enemy.
The rest of them filed back into the settlement, ready to defend.
Feng Yue glanced at the two superpower users lying on the ground, heavily injured—that is, the speed superpower user and Scar-faced who had charged out first. They were so badly hurt that they lay on the ground, unable to move.
Bai Ye noticed Feng Yue’s pleading gaze and said, "Take those two back."
Feng Yue swiftly summoned four of his men to carry the two unlucky ones back. After thanking Bai Ye, he waved his arm and instructed his subordinates, "Everyone follow me now, let’s slay those disgusting creatures!"
Having said that, he led his men out. Although his troops were a motley crew, perhaps stimulated by the urgency, they maintained a decent formation. They were unified in their enmity, and their morale was not low.
Bai Ye thought for a moment and said to Fang Yuxin, "Let’s go too, not sure how many zombies there are, think of it as a chance to earn Crystal Cores."
Fang Yuxin smiled, nodded at her family, and without getting into the SUV, directly had Angela transform. Then she skillfully jumped onto Angela’s back, gently touched its round, plump head, signaling it to move quickly.
Angela, usually appearing lazy, actually liked to show off in front of Fang Yuxin. At her signal, it let out a "meow" and immediately charged out with a powerful leap.
After transforming, its cries became particularly loud. Feng Yue and others, who had not seen it transform, turned around upon hearing the noise. To their amazement, they saw Fang Yuxin riding on the back of a gigantic ragdoll cat, speeding towards them!
Many changed color in fear, then dumbfoundedly watched as Angela sped past them, quickly heading in the direction of the rising smoke.
Someone with a trembling voice said, "That...is that a cat?"
Feng Yue managed to stay calm and explained, "It’s a Mutated ragdoll cat." He took a deep look at the departing Fang Yuxin and Angela, inwardly relieved that he had been wise enough not to offend her.
Regardless of her powers, just that Mutated ragdoll cat alone was not something he could handle. And he had an intuition that Fang Yuxin’s abilities were even greater than those of the mutated cat!
Such a figure was not someone he could afford to offend!
He had just thought this when he heard the sound of car engines behind him. On closer inspection, the three SUVs skillfully reversed and then turned around!
Thinking of the direction Fang Yuxin had left in, he inwardly breathed a sigh of relief; these people were also probably going to deal with the zombies. He quickly waved his hand, signaling his men to make way. The cars sped up and dashed past them with a whoosh. Feng Yue enviously watched the three clearly modified vehicles drive by, exhaled deeply, and instructed, "Everyone, pick up the pace!"
