TL: Moonlit
Xiao Hen seemed like a killing god, standing on the ground that was already piled up with three layers of corpses. These were all man-eating monsters. He was like an impenetrable wall, not allowing a single zombie to pass through him.
The scattered survivors, seeing a glimmer of hope, all gathered towards the off-road vehicle behind Xiao Hen, seeking his protection.
However, when they saw the young man squatting outside the car, poking at something with a small branch, everyone exclaimed,
Oops, sorry to disturb you! Were leaving!
They ran faster than anyone else. This guy definitely wasnt normal! Who would be so bored to poke at something in this situation?
When Chang Boheng arrived in Xiang County, he brought along several powerful individuals. Xiang County had been invaded by zombies, but it hadnt completely collapsed like the Nan Yan base. Chang Boheng was currently leading his subordinates to kill the monsters and hadnt been able to pay attention to Wen Qinglings side. It was Wen Chu who noticed them while chasing after the monsters.
Seeing Wen Qingling and Xiao Hen, Wen Chu was pleasantly surprised. In her eyes, Wen Qingling was an invincible super powerhouse. He could hold his ground in Ling City, which was filled with zombies, and he could even stop the zombie tide caused by the blood corpse. Wen Chu couldnt think of anything Wen Qingling couldnt do.
Doctor Wen, why are you here? Wen Chu said, casually throwing a water ball that enveloped a zombies head. The zombies head immediately swayed like a fishbowl, and Wen Chu cleanly chopped off its head with a knife.
Wen Qingling threw away the small branch and scanned the surroundings with a paralyzed expression. The base seems lively.
Wen Chu:
Wen Chu forced a smile and said, It will be resolved soon.
Wen Qingling asked, Are you sure?
Wen Chu wiped the blood off her face. Yes, very soon.
There were indeed only a few man-eating monsters running rampant in the vicinity. Wen Chu didnt take any further action and stayed to accompany Wen Qingling.
Wen Chu asked, Why did you suddenly think of coming here?
Wen Qingling nodded toward Xiao Hen. He said you have a base in Xiang County, so we came to take a look. We wanted to send a few people over to you, but it seems like your base is not safe.
Wen Chu immediately became spirited. Both she and Chang Boheng were smart people. They didnt know how strong Wen Qingling truly was, but they knew that even Fang Shenlong and Miao Bo, the leaders of the Ling City base, had come to him begging for help. However, they didnt have enough face, so Wen Qingling hadnt lent a hand to the Ling City base.
The Ling City base had tried various means to establish a relationship with Wen Qingling but never had the opportunity. Unexpectedly, this opportunity had now fallen into their laps. Anyone personally sent by Wen Qingling would undoubtedly be someone he cared about, and as long as these people were in their base, Wen Qingling would also protect their base.
Such a great opportunity, Wen Chu couldnt be foolish enough to miss it. She said, These man-eating monsters are adept at hiding. They look exactly like humans, making it difficult to distinguish them. Fortunately, they exposed themselves, and Boheng is currently leading people to clean up. It will be done soon.
Wen Qingling remained silent, looking at the chaotic street with bodies scattered everywhere.
Chang Boheng approached and saw Wen Qingling and Xiao Hen. He quickly walked over and proactively extended his hand. Doctor Wen, long time no see.
Wen Qingling glanced at his hand but made no move to shake it.
Chang Boheng noticed his blood-stained hands and quickly withdrew them, feeling embarrassed. Sorry, I just killed some monsters. Im a bit dirty.
Wen Qingling asked, Are you done killing?
Chang Boheng replied, Yes, theyre all dead.
Wen Qingling scanned the area with his psychic power and said casually, There are still 1,351 survivors.
Both Chang Boheng and Wen Chus expressions changed. They didnt even know how many people were still alive in their base. They didnt expect Wen Qingling to accurately state the number. His psychic power was truly terrifying.
Chang Boheng praised, Doctor Wen is indeed amazing.
Wen Qingling glanced at him and said, Not enough, its not clean yet.
Both Chang Boheng and Wen Chu were taken aback. What do you mean?
Wen Qingling explained, As you know, these monsters look exactly like humans and can hide among them. How can you be sure that all the remaining survivors are human?
Both Chang Boheng and Wen Chus expressions turned grim. It was true that no one knew when those monsters had infiltrated their base. If the base hadnt mysteriously lost people, Chang Boheng wouldnt have suspected anything and conducted a secret investigation, which led him to discover the truth.
At that time, the monster was feeding on someone, and Chang Boheng immediately intervened to kill it. The monster was powerful and escaped quickly. Chang Boheng and his team gave chase, resulting in the exposure of all the hidden monsters in the base. They began attacking and devouring people everywhere, causing complete chaos. They had been fighting until now, and Wen Qingling arrived during the most chaotic moment.
Chang Bohengs expression turned serious as he clasped his fists toward Wen Qingling. If Doctor Wen can discern the monsters, please lend us your assistance.
Wen Qingling shook his head. Its meaningless. Even if we clean them up this time, there will be more people who will be converted. You cant watch them all the time, and there will be times when you cant see them. They will undergo the transformation and become the Undead, infiltrating the base. What can you do then?
Chang Bohengs face looked grim. Are you saying they willingly become monsters?
Wen Qingling replied, Of course. If they didnt willingly do so, how could they hide in a human base? Could they send you a message to let you know? Did they let you know?
Of course not! If Chang Boheng hadnt discovered it himself, who knows how many more people would have died!
Of course, many people also died in the attack on the Xiang County base.
Chang Boheng remained calm. What exactly are these Undead?
Wen Qingling explained, They are the corpses of zombies, humans turned into monsters, collectively known as Undead.
Chang Boheng and Wen Chu fell silent.
Brandishing his long knife, Xiao Hen approached them.
Wen Qingling continued, It is said that the Undead possess immense power, an unending life, and are immune to the zombie virus. They will replace humans and become the privileged in the new world. With such great temptation, how many people do you think can resist?
Bullshit! Is the leader of these Undead running a pyramid scheme? Their brainwashing methods are so lame, and yet people still believe it?! Chang Boheng felt that the apocalypse could truly drive people insane. They were clearly monsters who fed on humans, so how could their propaganda sound like that of a creator god?
Wen Qingling said, They fear the zombie virus, fear death, crave power, and long for immortality. Given the opportunity, not everyone will choose this path, but there will be no shortage of people who do. The reason why there are still so many normal people in your base is simply because the Mother Corpse has limited energy and cant keep going.
Wen Qingling added, Now, do you want me to help you identify the monsters?
Chang Boheng fell into silence for a long time before saying, Can I ask how you identify them?
Wen Qingling replied, Our method is not something you can learn.
Chang Boheng didnt know what to do. According to Wen Qingling, even if they cleared out the hidden Undead this time, there might be more in the future. This couldnt go on like this.
Wen Chu: Doctor Wen, Im not sure about the current situation in Ling City. Are the zombies still under control?
Wen Qingling looked at her and listened to her continuation.
Wen Chu: Since we cant learn the methods, for the sake of convenience, can you help us screen and see if we can move to a place near Ling City? This way, it will be closer to your base. What do you think?
Wen Chu is very clever. Since Wen Qingling is not afraid of the Level 8 evolved General and can still establish a foothold in Ling City, it indicates that Ling City is probably already under Wen Qinglings control. Dont talk about how dangerous it is near Ling City; as long as they obtain Wen Qinglings permission, nothing will be dangerous.
Chang Boheng praised his girlfriend1I cant remember if its girlfriend or wife. Do inform me on the comment section ^^s wit and looked at Wen Qingling with anticipation.
Wen Qingling: The zombies in Ling City are currently running wild. Ling City can no longer contain them. They are searching for food outside the city. If you want to feed them, you can move back.
Chang Boheng:
Wen Chu:
Who dares to move back? Feed the zombies?
I think Xiang County is good. Xiao Hen drove all the way here, carefully observing the surrounding environment.
Xiang County is close to Ling City, but it is safe despite the danger. Previously, almost all the zombies in Xiang County were attracted to Ling City, leaving only a few zombies behind. Now that the zombies in Ling City have gone berserk and are wandering everywhere, some zombies have also come to Xiang County, but they are far fewer than those that left.
Among the bases that Xiao Hen has seen, Xiang County is relatively safe. If it were him, he wouldnt choose to give up Xiang County. If Xiang County develops well, it can become a good base.
If there is a chance to go back and have Wen Qinglings protection, Chang Boheng would be willing. However, if they dont have Wen Qinglings protection, approaching Ling City would be seeking death. In that case, its better to stay in Xiang County, which is not far from Ling City.
Chang Boheng: Please help us identify the Undead, Dr. Wen.
Wen Qingling: If I see an Undead, I wont explain, Ill just kill. Will you recognize it then? Arent you afraid Ill kill innocent people?
Chang Boheng solemnly said, Dr. Wen is a doctor, saving lives and helping the injured. You wont kill innocent people.
Wen Chu: We believe in you.
Wen Qingling nodded. One Undead is worth 50 ordinary crystal nuclei.
Chang Boheng: Okay.
Wen Qingling instructed Chang Boheng to gather all the survivors in the base, close the gate, and not let anyone escape.
Chang Boheng:
Wen Chu:
Why does this situation make people uneasy? Does this mean theyre going to embark on a killing spree?
The survivors who were gathered together still had lingering fears, constantly wary of those around them to prevent any monsters from mixing in. They maintained distance between each other, which also facilitated Wen Qingling and Xiao Hen.
Mo Jing and the others who came together looked at the scene and found it strangely familiar. Not long ago, they were also called out and gathered at the Nan Yan base in a similar manner.
Wen Qingling and Xiao Hen stood at the forefront with Chang Bohengs leadership team, while Luo Zhi, Xiong Shu, Mo Jing, and others stood on the other side, clearly demarcating the three groups.
Among the crowd, only Wen Qingling looked the youngest, with a tender face and relatively young age. He scanned all the survivors and said, There are more people compared to the Nan Yan base. Can you handle it?
Xiao Hen knew he was referring to him and replied, No problem.
Wen Qingling: Then lets start the roll call.
This roll call was not the same as the usual roll call. If someone was called, it could be a matter of life and death.
Wen Qingling generously handed his gun to Xiao Hen. Xiao Hen understood his intention: Wen Qingling earns the crystal nuclei, and he provides the weapons. He remained the same, not wanting to owe anyone any favors.
Xiao Hen aimed the gun at the crowd, causing the survivors who had barely managed to stay alive to panic. They tried to run, and Wen Qingling calmly said, Anyone attempting to escape will be treated as a monster and killed.
Wen Qingling wanted to smile, but his expression froze, making him resemble a stone statue. You can try if you dont believe me.
Everyone:
Could he really casually risk our lives like this?!
Everyone was intimidated by the devilish aura emanating from Wen Qingling. Those who attempted to escape hesitantly returned to their original positions, not daring to move again.
They were human beings, with no ill intentions. Why be afraid?
Xiao Hen opened the gun, and one person in the crowd had their head burst open, falling straight to the ground. The woman beside that person was stunned for a moment, then threw herself on the body, wailing.
Xiao Hen continued opening the gun, and one by one, the hidden corpse men within the crowd fell. Wen Qingling leisurely counted the number of heads, with each head worth 50 ordinary crystal nuclei. He must count accurately.
Xiao Hens accuracy with the gun was remarkable, and the roll call proceeded quickly. When the Undead realized that those being killed were their own kind, someone suddenly shouted, Run! They want to kill us all! Run!
After the shout, more than ten figures quickly fled. After running a few steps, they realized something was wrong. The rest of the people remained in place, and they stood out like bright lights in the darkness, unable to hide in the crowd.
Survivors: We know how to do this! Anyone who runs is an idiot! Haha!
