Yuan Tianxing stood on the platform before the playground, looking at the thousands of survivors who were talking to each other. His face was as black as thunder.
“Deputy Chief! We counted the noses. Four-thousand, three-hundred, and ninety-two people died and their bodies dried out… Five-thousand, eight-hundred, and seventy-seven survived. All superpowered people are fine. We don’t know how many people have turned into zombies yet. Based on total number of people we had before, about seven-hundred people are missing. I think they should be the ones who turned into zombies this time,” Li Zheng walked to Yuan Tianxing while holding some files. With a low voice, he reported to Yuan Tianxing about what he knew.
“What about the cause?” Yuan Tianxing asked with a grim look.
“We don’t know yet,” Li Zheng shook his head.
The only question that people had now was what caused the disaster.
“Du, find a way to comfort these people first,” Yuan Tianxing said to Du Yuanxing with a deep frown.
“I get it,” Du Yuanxing nodded, then left with his subordinates. To pacify those people, Du Yuanxing asked Cheng Wangxue to prepare some food. When the breakfast was ready, every survivor got a portion.
The warm breakfast did calm them down a lot.
After calming down, they started wanting to know why the disaster happened. Why did some people turn into zombies? Why some others turned into dried and dead bodies overnight?
About fifty percent of the people in the base were gone through last night.
When All Beings Base leaders were busy comforting their people and trying to figure out the cause of the disaster, the leaders of the other bases had been doing the same.
In Sea City Base, Wu Chengyue was standing in the conference room in the administration building, also with a bitter face. Through the french window, he was looking down at the survivors who had been gathering toward the building.
Sea City Base wasn’t as special as All Beings Base. Therefore, gunshots and explosions could still be heard from everywhere in that base.
While killing the zombies, they also needed to save the survivors.
In the cleared area, the soldiers wrapped the dead bodies in sheets and carried them out. Most of those people died in sleep and had their bodies dried out, so they were found on their beds. The soldiers put on gloves and wrapped them up with white cloth or body bags.
Those dead bodies were soon counted out and burned. Zombies wouldn’t eat them!
“I’ve checked. All of them were commoners. It didn’t happen to any superpowered ones…” Xiao Licheng told Wu Chengyue what he knew.
“Are all superpowered people fine?” Wu Chengyue asked with a frown.
Xiao Licheng nodded.
“What happened to those who turned into zombies?” Wu Chengyue raised his head and looked at the area where a battle was being fought as he asked.
“We don’t know yet,” Xiao Licheng knitted his brows into a frown as well. It had only been about an hour since they had heard the news. It wasn’t possible for the cause to be found out so soon.
“Do you feel that this… looks very much alike the apocalypse?” Moli, who was staying silent the whole time, abruptly joined the conversation without any expression. On hearing that, all the others in the room frowned. Wu Chengyue widened his eyes and turned to say to Xiao Licheng, “Go and find out the situation in the other bases!”
Xiao Licheng instantly turned and left.
Once he left, a few people walked in quickly. They were Zou Shihui, an old man, and some others.
“There was a situation on my side. Tell your people to keep an eye on the superpowered ones. They might burst into mania,” said Zou Shihui to Wu Chengyue once he came in.
“What?” Wu Chengyue was a little confused at first, then seemed to understand Zou Shihui’s meaning. He uncertainly looked at the latter and asked, “Are you saying that there might be problems with the superpowered people too?”
Zou Shihui nodded.
The old man with presbyopic glasses said, “You’ll know when you see them.”
While speaking, he turned and waved at the soldiers at the door. Following his move, the group of soldiers pushed in three people, whose hands were locked by metal bars,
A level-six metal-powered man had locked their hands, following behind the three at the moment with his hands raised to control the metal, in case the three struggled themselves free.
The three people had their eyes popped, face twisted, and teeth bared like fierce beasts. They twisted their bodies and struggled restlessly. Their energies were disordered, bursting wave by wave.
Wu Chengyue looked at their red and unfocused eyes. Clearly, their minds weren’t clear, their eyes bloodshot. The three were only at level two or three, so they couldn’t hurt the others on the scene. But seeing them, Wu Chengyue frowned deeply.
“They don’t know who they are, and they can’t recognize the others,” the old man said while pushing up his glasses.
“We only found these three so far. But, based on what happened this morning, I think we should be prepared,” Zou Shihui walked to the window and looked outside. Because of the disaster that happened in the morning, the smoke of gunpowder was rising from many areas of the base.
“This might be the second apocalypse… But this time, people didn’t only become zombies or superpower possessors. The ones who didn’t turn into zombies became dried corpses,” Zou Shihui said with a depressed tone and a deep frown.
At that time, the group of Sea City Base people still in All Beings Base were helplessly looking at Kong Qingming, who seemed to have lost his mind.
He was in a hallway in the building they lived in. Behind him, twisting trees had filled the hallway up. Green branches broke into all the doors and windows, then grew rapidly in the rooms and broke out of the windows, reaching outside.
From the outside, people could see branches and leaves reaching out from every window of that building.
“Kong Qingming! What are you doing!” Meng Yue looked at Kong Qingming with a serious and confused expression.
Kong Qingming’s pretty eyes were red at that moment. The white parts of those eyes were covered in a light layer of redness. He looked at Meng Yue expressionlessly, without responding to her.
“The look on his face is weird!” Xiao Yunlong shielded Meng Yue with his own body while observing Kong Qingming’s eyes with a frown. He suffered a slap on the back of his head before he could even finish his words.
Clap!
Meng Yue rolled her eyes and said to her, “We aren’t blind! Who else but you can’t tell that the look on his face is weird!”
Xiao Yunlong was speechless. ‘Can you please not slap me on the head? A little respect would be nice… ‘ he complained in his head.
