Lin Feng nodded and said, “That guy isn’t capable at all, but he does know whom to ask for help. The people who’re working for him willingly are all rather powerful. They just have problems controlling their own desire!”
Hearing what he said, Chen Yuting glanced at him awkwardly, and Yuan Tianxing made no response.
“So, what should we do now? I heard that he came with a pretty strong army. His armed vehicles are all equipped with long-range and short-range artillery and mini cannons. We have nothing but a zombie wall. Can we survive their attack?” Chen Yuting said with worry.
Yuan Tianxing responded, “Our main job is to defend against his weapons. Long Yubai is at level-seven with water power. As long as we’re not near a river, lake, or ocean, we don’t need to be afraid of him. The earth will defeat the water. I’ll hold off his power for now. However, we have no way to fend off those weapons.”
“You’re right. Long Yubai’s armed vehicles have always been hard to deal with. According to Xiao Licheng, he brought over ten armed vehicles. If those armed vehicles fire at the zombie crowd together, even tens of thousands of zombies would be wiped out,” Lin Feng nodded and agreed.
“So, we need to figure out a way to deal with those armed vehicles, right?” Chen Yuting asked.
“We also need to keep an eye on Long Yubai, because Upper City District is pretty close to Qian River. If he turned the water in Qian River into a flood and sent it toward us, we’d be in trouble. That’s why I said that I can only hold off his power temporarily, but not for long,” Yuan Tianxing shook his head and said.
“Also, we don’t know which one of his deputy chiefs is with him now. None of the few men around him are easy to deal with. In our base, we’re the only level-six ones. If one of us went to fight his deputy chiefs, the other two would need to combine their powers to defend against armed vehicles. Thus, no one would be left to deal with Long Yubai himself.”
“That’s not true. Chief Wu is here, isn’t he? He wouldn’t just sit aside and watch,” said Chen Yuting.
“Ah, should we go and talk to that… Mengmeng? Before Miss. Lu left, she told us that Mengmeng is a powerful one too now, and that we can ask her for help if anything happened in the base,” Lin Feng suddenly recalled the message that Mrs. Lin had brought him.
Both Yuan Tianxing and Chen Yuting had their eyes glowed. Just now, they actually forgot that the new base didn’t only belong to them; it was also a base of zombies.
Yuan Tianxing stood up and said, “Alright, I’ll send a man to the fifth floor and ask them.”
After saying that, he turned and walked to the door. Then, he opened the door and said to Lin Yu, who was guarding outside, “Lin Yu, go to the fifth floor to find Miss. Liu, and ask her to bring Mengmeng back from Mount. Wu area. Tell her that this is an emergency.”
Lin Yu was puzzled for a second, but soon understood his meaning. “Sure, I’ll do it now!”
Then, he turned and left to find Liu Jun. He didn’t want to talk to those zombies, but he had no choice, as it was an order from Yuan Tianxing.
Yuan Tianxing closed the door and turned around to continue talking with Lin Feng and Chen Yuting.
“I’m really surprised that Huang Tianfei wasn’t eaten by zombies… He actually ran into Long Yubai and his people. But still, I guess it’ll take them a while to find us,” Lin Feng said with a frown, as he wasn’t so happy when thinking about Huang Tianfei, who was mentioned by Xiao Licheng earlier.
“He’s lucky indeed. It has been so many days, and he’s even injured… Doesn’t he have some complicated issue with Miss Liu on the fifth floor? We should just give him to her and her friends if we get him,” said Chen Yuting.
Right at that moment, someone knocked on the door. The three in the room paused briefly, then turned together to the door and saw it open.
“Boss, it’s Chief Wu!” Feng Yuming pushed the door open and walked in.
“Ah, tell him to come in!” Yuan Tianxing and the other two immediately stood up to welcome Wu Chengyue. Feng Yuming opened the door wider, then stepped outside and gestured Wu Chengyue and Xiao Licheng in.
Next, Wu Chengyue and Xiao Licheng walked into the office. Behind him, a couple of kids stuck their heads out from behind the door. Those were Lin Xiaolu, Tongtong, and Ling Ling. They were curiously looking at those adults in the office.
Lin Xiaolu happened to make eye contact with her father. She immediately walked in, then stood by the door and said to Lin Feng, “Daddy, can we play with Ling Ling?”
Lin Feng paused for a second; he was surely fine with it. He glanced at Wu Yueling who stood quietly beside his daughter, then turned to Wu Chengyue.
Wu Chengyue noticed the look in his eyes, so he smiled and responded, “Why are you looking at me? Let the kids play. Just send a man to keep an eye on them.”
Hearing that, Lin Feng said to Lin Xiaolu, “Take Ling Ling to your Mom. Don’t go anywhere else. You’re older, so you need to take care of the younger kids. Do you understand?”
Lin Xiaolu nodded obediently, then happily held Tongtong’s hand and went out. She wanted to hold Wu Yueling’s hand too, but the latter didn’t let her. Also, Tongtong was younger than both her and Wu Yueling, so Lin Xiaolu figured that she should hold his hand.
As Wu Yueling left with Lin Xiaolu, Wu Chengyue’s soldiers quietly followed behind those kids without waiting for Wu Chengyue’s order.
After Wu Chengyue and Xiao Licheng entered and the few kids went out, Feng Yuming stepped back into the office and closed the door. Yuan Tianxing pointed at a chair and said, “Please take a seat! We were going to find you in a moment, but you brought yourself here in advance.”
Wu Chengyue sat down and responded smilingly, “Ah, you’re talking about Long Yubai, right? Tell, me, what I can do to help? I plan to stay a little longer now.”
“Yes. We were talking about his weapons and powers. Long Yubai has water power, and Upper City District is near the Qian River. If he went to the river and created a flood, we wouldn’t be able to hold on for long. So, we must keep him away from Qian River. Also, we need to figure out a way to defend against his weapons,” Yuan Tianxing looked at him and said.
Wu Chengyue nodded, “Have you come up with an idea yet?”
Yuan Tianxing glanced at Lin Feng, who leaned his upper body forward, resting his elbows on the table, and then crossed his fingers as he said, “We plan to strike first instead of fighting back after he breaks the zombie wall.”
“Yes! To do that, we first need someone to destroy their armed vehicles. At least, we should destroy those weapons first. In fact, that’s not a difficult task. We only need to send Qingying out. She has metal power, so she has plenty of ways to destroy those metallic weapons. But, we also need some other people to act together with her and protect her,” Yuan Tianxing looked at the others and told them what he thought.
