When an Alien is Bound to a World Saving SystemCh13 - Zombie world (5)

System 2d14 couldn’t believe what it heard: [Lord Host, what did you just say?!]

The black-haired youth smiled: “I know who stole the electrical generator. In fact, Wu Yi’s analysis was very correct.” L6z51N

System 2d14: [Who was it?]

The black-haired youth continued to smile: “Why don’t you guess ah.”

System 2d14 didn’t believe him: [Where is the generator now?]

The black-haired youth calculated for a moment: “At the bottom of a river 2300 kilometres north of here.” wMu75B

System 2d14 cried out in alarm: [Lord Host, how do you know?!]

The black-haired youth: “I saw it with my own eyes.”

System 2d14 wailed: [I am your system. Why didn’t see it?]

The black-haired youth: “……” That’s because you are only bound to one tiny part of my body. My stupid system! If I decide to abandon that lump of organic matter, you would instantly be unbound from me! How could you not have any sense of crisis!

2d14 continued to grieve until noon before slowly recovering from the huge blow that it actually wasn’t in sync with its own host. In a certain alien’s mind, it then started to fire off names one after another, suspecting every person in the base……

After their bleak and depressing lunch, Xu Yun Cheng made a proposal. The rough idea was: Since they didn’t have the electrical generator and the small villa protected by the earth wall was no longer safe, they now could only hurry before the winter comes and head south to seek shelter in the large base there. Everyone had discussed for a long time and couldn’t come up with a better plan, so the decision for all of them to head south was finalised.

Early morning the next day, under Xu Yun Cheng’s lead, all the members of Chang Feng base put their bulky luggage, tents, bedding and so on into the black-haired youth’s space. The twelve of them then drove a van and two Jeeps and quickly started their journey.

At the request of Xu Yun Cheng, the black-haired youth temporarily separated from Old Chen’s family of three and got on the same car as Xu Yun Cheng. This seemed to carry the intention of monitoring him, but a certain alien didn’t think much of it. He just quietly sat in the back seat the entire way. hkbLMi

The person driving was Wu Han. Xu Yun Cheng was calmly sitting in the front passenger seat with his eyes closed the entire time. Sun Ya Nan and the black-haired youth sat together in the back seat. No one in the car tried to start up a conversation. After several hours of this stagnant atmosphere, a certain alien couldn’t stand the system talking endlessly in his mind any longer. This stupid system had even suspected Wu Yi’s baby daughter. He turned to Sun Ya Nan sitting next to him and softly asked:

“On the day that I joined this base, you said that ordinary people won’t necessarily…… what did you mean?” A certain alien paused for a moment before adding a sentence: “After the apocalypse arrived, I basically didn’t have any contact with the outside world, so there are a lot of things that I don’t know.”

Sun Ya Nan still seemed very apologetic regarding the time she didn’t approve of the black-haired youth joining Chang Feng base. She quickly explained: “Don’t get me wrong. It’s not because I think ordinary people are useless that I opposed to you joining our base. You should know that when the apocalypse had just started, every country established a large base on an island. Regardless of whether you were an ability user or an ordinary person, they accepted them all. The amount of ordinary people was naturally ten times more than ability users. In the beginning, everything was neat and orderly, but within a year, several dozens of those bases were destroyed! The reason was because they were attacked by zombies from the inside! About ten months into the apocalypse, people gradually started to realise that ordinary people who weren’t infected by zombies would sometimes become a zombie without any warning. In those large bases with several hundreds of thousands of people, the population living inside were all crowded together. Hence, so long as a few ordinary people changed at the same time, then within a single day, the several hundreds of thousands of humans would turn into a several hundreds of thousands large zombie horde. Naturally, the ability users inside also couldn’t escape.” WXMK0Y

A certain alien asked: “You’re saying that there would be a few ordinary people who would simultaneously become zombies without any warning?”

“Um, I also haven’t seen it with my own eyes. This was all just what people speculated afterwards.”

Wu Han added while driving:

“So, Ya Nan didn’t mean to target you. In the beginning, there were 46 members in Chang Feng base. 29 of them were ordinary people. One night, a little girl called Lin Meng Meng suddenly changed, and since no one was on guard against it, we lost 17 people! Amongst them included 4 ability users. From then on, we increased our vigilance and also established the rule to no longer accept any non-ability users. However, the remaining ordinary people still changed one by one. Even my own sister-in-law turned into a zombie after she gave birth to my niece. So now, no one would take such a big risk for an unfamiliar ordinary person. Even for me, every night I sleep, I would lock up my door. Perhaps one day I will also turn into a zombie. But this way, at least the zombified me won’t be able to implicate the entire base.” Wu Han’s tone carried a hint of self-deprecation. xL52BP

For a moment, the atmosphere in the car solidified again because of this heavy topic.

Sitting in the last car, Li Ze suddenly reported through the walkie-talkie: “Boss! There are two trucks coming up behind us!”

The black-haired youth looked out of the car window and saw a green leather covered military truck approach the side of their car and honk, seeming to signal for them to stop the car.

“Let’s stop first and see what they want to do.” Xu Yun Cheng, who had his eyes closed the entire time, finally spoke. LbeuGx

The three cars of Chang Feng base then followed his command and stopped by the side of the road. Those two military trucks also stopped. A man in his thirties then jumped down from the driver’s seat and shouted towards them:

“We are the Raging Flames Squadron. I am the vice leader, Hu Yang. Do you guys have a space ability user?”

Xu Yun Cheng also got out of the car. He didn’t directly answer the question, but instead vigilantly asked in reply:

“I am the leader of Chang Feng base. What do you guys want?” ePx8qz

“Please don’t misunderstand. We are not trying to rob you. Before the apocalypse, we were all soldiers who served together in the army and then formed the Raging Flames Squadron. It’s like this: there’s a town called Huai An up ahead which has a small gasoline depot. Our squadron has always wanted to take the fuel, but the roads in the town are too narrow and there are also too many cars blocking the way. Our trucks can’t get in. We want to borrow a space ability user to help us carry the fuel. So, do you guys have a space ability user?” This Hu Yang’s ability to read other people’s faces was also quite powerful.

“Borrow?”

Hu Yang could make out the unpleasant tone in Xu Yun Cheng’s voice. Seeing a dozen people come out of the three cars of Chang Feng base, he didn’t slow down his speech, but instead said in a provocative tone:

“Our Raging Flames doesn’t lack ability users. We don’t need to cooperate with you. We just want to ‘borrow’ a space ability user, get him to empty his space and help us transport gasoline. After we’re done, we’ll divide you 10%. Of course, if he wants to join Raging Flames, he is more than welcome to!” RIb28a

After saying this, more than 40 ability users came down from the trucks and roared with laughter. Their attitude was clearly saying that if they couldn’t borrow, they would steal.

On this side, everyone in Chang Feng base was furious, but the difference in strength between them was simply too big. Even Xu Yun Cheng didn’t dare to directly shed his pretence of cordiality with the other side. He could only press down his anger and said:

“You guys want to directly ‘borrow’ our space ability user and also make him take out all of our supplies from his base. This is really too much!”

Xu Yun Cheng didn’t expect that the other side didn’t answer his implication and give a guarantee. Instead, Hu Yang shamelessly laughed and said: IbJ k8

“Even if we openly steal the people and supplies of your Chang Feng base, what can you do about it? That little sister over there, do you want to come over to our Raging Flames base?”

Hu Yang pointed at Zhao Su Xuan who was standing beside Li Ze. Behind him, the crowd of vulgar soldiers let out malicious whistles and laughter.

“Don’t get ahead of yourselves!” With his arm in a sling, Li Ze flew into a rage, his fingertips sparking with lightning.

Behind Hu Yang, a fierce-looking man waved his hand and a huge lightning bolt loudly struck down in front of Li Ze. An approximately 20 cm crack appeared in the pavement, shocking Li Ze so much that he fell backwards onto the road, unable to get up for a long time. Holding back her tears, Zhao Shu Xuan rushed up to support him. p8wjJ3

That fierce-looking lightning ability user sneered with disdain: “A mere first level ability user still dares to put on a display in front of an expert. You’ve got some guts!”

Seeing that their companion was attacked, the people of Chang Feng base were furious! Unable to endure it any longer, they started to bring out their abilities.

A certain alien took advantage of this chaos to quietly ask 2d14: “In this world, what are the classifications for space ability users?”

System 2d14: [Ding! Processing. First level 10 square metres; second level 20 square metres; third level 40 square metres; fourth level 100 square metres. However, a living person cannot enter the space. They definitely don’t have the ability to go inside the space to measure it, so they shouldn’t know the specific size. Lord Host, you won’t be exposed!” C4yiN

A certain alien was relieved: “Oh.”

Just when the two sides were about to wage war against each other:

“I’ll go with you!” The black-haired youth’s clear voice interrupted the deadlock.

Raging Flames squadron’s vice leader Hu Yang waved his hand and the group of brothers behind him put away their abilities. Tby en

“I am a first level space ability user. I can carry back 10,000 litres of fuel. After everything is done, we will keep 1000 litres of it. The condition is that you guys must promise not to harm anyone in Chang Feng base. Otherwise, if I am unwilling to open my space, you won’t be able to get what’s inside no matter what you do!”

Hu Yang was amused by this skinny youth who talked big: “Ha! How bold of a first level ability user! Little friend, what gives you such confidence?!”

The black-haired youth didn’t reply. Instead, he calmly reached into his bosom and took out a hand gun, cocking the hammer……

Seeing this scene, the soldiers of Raging Flames squadron all cried with laughter! Could it be that this space ability user wanted to shoot them dead with a gun? oUQeYr

Then, they saw the youth turn the muzzle of the gun and aim it at his own temple.
