Chapter 817: They Gave Up

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After discussion, they decided to send Yun Meng and a few level-six zombies to the border between Anhui and Hangzhou to pick up those survivors who escaped from Earth Dragon Base.

Jian Shengtong and his troop had entered Hangzhou. At that moment, they were resting in a factory building.

Jian Shengtong and Xia Yushen were standing on the roof while the others were hiding in the building. Everybody looked messy and exhausted. Perspiration, blood, mixed with the dust, dried out all over their faces and bodies, making them look like beggars.

There was strength in numbers. Many of the thousands of warriors had died during the journey, but at least they managed to save the hundreds of women.

The pursuing force behind them suffered a heavy casualty as well. The weapons that were stored in Earth Dragon Base had been shipped to Hidden Cloud City Base long ago. Not long after Hidden Cloud City Base fell, the people from Sky Fire Base arrived and swept across the base again. Therefore, neither of the two forces had much ammo left in their hands.

To save ammo, they could only fight with their superpowers. Jian Shengtong and Xia Yushen were both at level-six, but the pursuing force only had one level-six member. Therefore, in terms of superpower, they were no match for Jian Shengtong’s force.

Jian Shengtong’s force was in short of weapons since the beginning. The was why they had been suppressed the whole time. However, defeating them was not possible.

“We’re almost there. Tell out brothers to hang in there,” Xia Yushen said to his assistant while reading the map in his hands.

“Yes, sir!” The assistant quickly went downstairs.

Jian Shengtong looked behind with a slight frown. “You say…” he said uncertainly, “Will the leader of the new base allow us in? After all, they’re all from Hades Base…”

“Don’t worry about that. She’ll let us in for the sake of those ladies,” Xia Yushen was less worried than he was.

That was the exact reason why he agreed to let Jian Shengtong save those women. The Hades Base survivors who now lived in the new base certainly hated all Earth Dragon Base people. However, the bigger the population was, the stronger a base could be. People would create, so a base would develop, and become strong enough to defend its people against the difficult circumstance and zombies.

A base leader should always give priority to the interest of the entire base.

They saved those women to show their loyalty. So, no matter how much the Hades Base survivors hated them, their hatred would ease a little for the sake of those women. As for that might happen in the future, that would be after they joined the base.

On hearing that, Jian Shengtong stopped frowning a little bit.

“How far are those b*stards from here?” Xia Yushen suddenly asked as a sharp gleam of light flashed across his eyes.

With a cold look, Jian Shengtong responded, “About five miles. They can’t afford to consume much of their ammo now, or they won’t be able to return to Sea City Base safely.”

At that time, a scout returned and soon came to the roof to find Jian Shengtong and Xia Yushen.

“Boss, they gave up!” The scout reported to them excitedly.

“Tell us,” Jian Shengtong and Xia Yushen glanced at each other.

That man said, “For some reason, they’re already moving East. I think they’re heading straight to Sea City.”

“Have they left already?” Jian Shengtong asked.

The man nodded.

Xia Yushen fell into thoughts. He wondered why those people gave up on pursuing those women. They seemed to want them so much before.

What made them give up?

They didn’t know that the enemies gave up on pursuing because they received a message, saying that Jian Shengtong’s troop would go through a zombie-gathering area on their way to the new base. That place was like a zombie city. It was impossible for people to get through there directly, and the detour would be very long.

Both their weapons and food were running out. They couldn’t afford to keep following behind Jian Shengtong and his people. So at last, they decided to give up and head to Sea City.

They believed that Jian Shengtong’s force would suffer hugely when they arrived at that zombie-gathering area. By that time, they would watch them cry.

A short while later, the people who went out to scout for tracks ahead came back.

“Boss, the further we go, the fewer zombies we saw. We don’t know why! But, that’s good for us.”

Jian Shengtong and Xia Yushen both had their eyes shining. “Really? We’ve rested for a while. We should get going now.”

After all, not only the enemies were short of food, but also them.

A large group of people were crowding in the sealed factory building. The building was large enough to contain thousands of people. They had to sit tightly together though, and there was no room for anyone to lie down.

In a corner, which was the safest area, a group of women were sitting together. They weren’t all weak and vulnerable. Some of them had great leadership ability, and some had just attained superpowers.

They were the group of female captives that Lin Qiao had released when she was in Earth Dragon Base, trying to kill Long Yubai.

“Ting, when will we get to the new base?” They leaned against each other. They looked tired, but not despairing. At least, they were still alive. They had a great chance to live a new life in the new base.

They had heard that the people in the new base were mostly from Hades Base, and the Deputy Chief was still the old one.

Yuan Tianxing’s decency and reliability were like a light shining upon those women’s hearts.

So, some young girls asked about when they would get there eagerly.

“Soon! Just hang in there. We’ve survived all that has happened. One or two more days on the journey is nothing, right?” Ting was standing at the edge of the group of women. She was about thirty, well-featured, and eagle-eyed. Her face was well-shaped, hair tied up behind her head, and eyes glowing brightly. She was relatively tall, about five feet and eight inches.

The people who didn’t know her well would always be frightened by her sharp eyes and feel reluctant to approach her. However, the people who were familiar with her found that she was a source of the sense of security.

Her words disburdened the others.

“Great! We’ll have food in the new base, and we’ll sleep without worry,” someone said. That was the only thought that all those women had.
