Originally, Qing Zhang City had a population of 70,000, but after the massacre of the Flesh-Eaters and Vampires, there were only about 40,000 left. Of the 40,000, only 3,000 were truly willing to leave with him and join the organization.
The remaining 30,000 humans were unwilling to leave Qing Zhang City. After all, they had a lot of valuable real estate and living resources in Qing Zhang City. Furthermore, there was a clean water source in the city. The moment they left, everything that belonged to them would be taken away.
In this world, long distance migration was an extremely dangerous thing. If there was no expert to hold the fort, it was easy to be swallowed up by the Mutants, Rioters, Mutant Beasts, Living Corpses, Living Corpses, etc.
Yue Zhong assigned Anya to be the protector of these people, and assigned 5 Type 2 Divine Warriors to Mandy Zhang, before allowing the group to bring the resources towards Red Rock City. With the protection of the Type 4 Divine Warriors, this huge group could easily defend against most threats.
After making the arrangements, Yue Zhong continued towards the headquarters of the resistance.
Qing Zhang City had a clean water source, and was suitable for humans to live in. However, Yue Zhong had no choice but to give up on the idea of occupying it. Otherwise, Saint City would just need to send out a division to deal with them.
The headquarters of the resistance was located about a thousand kilometers east of Saint City, in the Chang Lan Ruins.
The Chang Lan Ruins were similar to the Ancient Ruins, an abandoned city before the apocalypse. There were also many Mutant Plants, Living Corpses, Mutant Beasts, and Radiated Ghosts.
It was only in such a harsh environment that humans could have a place to live freely. Such a harsh environment was not something that the Saint Clan could be bothered with. It was just like how a millionaire living in a luxurious villa would not want to go to the slums to live in a dilapidated house.
Within the Chang Lan Ruins, there were many heavy radiation zones, and a number of soldiers by Jess' side had consumed some anti-radiation medicine and were holding radiation detectors as they advanced carefully.
After dealing with a few hordes of living corpses, as well as small Mutant Beasts, they passed through the radiation zones and came to a place that seemed to have been through the passage of time, and was filled with dilapidated skyscrapers.
"Help!!"
"Ah!! Save me!! "
"…"
At this moment, a series of human screams of terror and the blood-curdling screams of people on the brink of death came from afar.
"Get ready for battle. I'll go take a look!"
Yue Zhong instructed, before leaping towards the direction of the screams.
In a few breaths, Yue Zhong could see a few hundred humans scrambling to escape. Behind them, there were a number of Radiation Ghosts that had human-like structures, but their bodies were all red and black, with countless tumors all over their bodies. Their eyes were like the compound eyes of insects, and they had sharp claws and thick legs. Their bodies emitted a putrid stench as they chased after the humans.
There were only about twenty Radiation Ghosts, but their movements were very agile. The weakest Radiation Ghost had four times the speed and strength of a normal person. They chased after the humans in a frenzy, grabbing and biting off their throats.
The screams continued to ring out, as the humans were as weak as chickens in front of the Radiation Ghosts. There was no way for them to resist, and they could only let the Radiation Ghosts bite their throats.
In truth, there were over a hundred humans here, and if everyone worked together, they could definitely wipe out the 20 Radiation Ghosts. However, the humans were all scared out of their wits, and only knew how to run. Hence, they became the prey of the Radiation Ghosts.
In the midst of the escape, the ugly scene of the humans began to emerge. In order to survive, in order to escape faster, the people at the back scrambled to be the first to rush forward, directly pushing down the people in front of them and sending them flying to the ground.
"Scram!!!" A middle-aged man was running in a frenzy, when all of a sudden, a little girl appeared in front of him. His eyes were bloodshot as he reached out to push her away.
The little girl seemed to have evaded, but her reaction was too slow, and she was pushed to the ground by the middle-aged man. Her clear eyes flashed with despair.
A Radiation Ghoul with white brain matter on the side of its mouth quickly rushed towards the little girl. It extended its claws towards the little girl's head. As long as its claws connected, the little girl's head would definitely be crushed.
At this critical juncture, a cold blade light flashed past, and the Radiation Ogre's body was directly sliced into two. Countless black pus splattered in all directions.
"These Radiation Ghosts are really troublesome!"
Following Yue Zhong's voice, a Devil Flame burst forth, incinerating the black pus into a cloud of poisonous smoke.
Yue Zhong's figure also appeared in front of the little girl, and he frowned as he looked at the Radiation Ghosts. It was the first time he had encountered such a freak, however, he had already heard from Jess about some of their characteristics.
The Radiation Ghosts were different from other freaks, as their bodies were filled with corrosive toxins. The moment their bodies were destroyed, there would be a large amount of corrosive pus that would shoot out from their bodies. The pus was extremely corrosive and infectious. Once it hit the body, even a Type 4 Divine Warrior would be infected and turned into a freak. This was one of the most terrifying toxins in this world.
The best way to deal with these Radiation Ghosts was to use the RH2s to blast them from afar.
Yue Zhong looked at the Radiation Ghosts chasing after the humans, and a number of fireballs shot out from his hands, landing on the bodies of the Radiation Ghosts and exploding, as the flames engulfed them.
In just an instant, the 20 Radiation Ghosts had been blasted apart by Yue Zhong, as their life force entered his body through the God and Devil Imprint.
After doing all this, Yue Zhong turned to look at the little girl.
The moment he turned back, the little girl swiftly replied, "I'm fine, I'm fine."
"Don't tell me she has the ability to read minds? Impossible? "Yue Zhong was taken aback, as he carefully assessed the little girl in front of him.
The little girl in front of Yue Zhong had a head of short blue hair, and a pair of clear black and white eyes. Although her body was dirty and smelly, but looking closely, he could see that her features were extremely beautiful. The only regret was that her face was expressionless, and there was not a trace of life in her eyes, as if she was a broken doll.
Yue Zhong's eyes flashed with a look of pity, such little girls were common in the apocalypse. Once they fall into the hands of those perverts, those beautiful little girls will be destroyed like broken dolls.
The little girl looked at Yue Zhong coldly, "I'm indeed a freak with the ability to read minds. However, I'm not a broken doll. You despicable man! "
When Yue Zhong heard that, he was shocked. He did not speak, instead, he stared at the little girl and thought to himself, "Mind Reading!! You can actually read minds!! Then let me ask you, do you know what I'm thinking now? What's your name? "
The blue-haired girl stared at Yue Zhong coldly, "Of course I know! My name is Floxenia, a Chinese American, a freak with the ability to read minds. "
"Awesome!!" Yue Zhong looked at Floxenia with a look of joy, ignoring the stench on her as he hugged her, "Awesome!! Who would have thought that I would find such a treasure here!! "
Floxenia looked at Yue Zhong, her eyes flashing with a sense of inferiority, "Treasure? I'm a treasure? Aren't you afraid of me? I'm a freak that can read your mind at any time, anywhere. Even your father, mother, grandfather, teacher, and classmates are hated by me. I don't even have a friend! "
Because of her ability to see into other people's hearts, Floxenia's family had fallen apart because of her. Her family, classmates, and teachers all hated her and did not want to get close to her, as they were afraid that she would see the evil in their hearts.
Everyone would have an ugly existence in their hearts, and everyone was afraid of being seen through. Even the most intimate of husbands and wives would have their own secrets that they did not want others to know. Since Floxenia had seen through their secrets, she would naturally be hated by others.
Yue Zhong stared at her with a burning gaze, "Hahaha! Floxenia, that's because you don't know how to use your strength. I'm not afraid of you, even if you can read my mind, it's fine. Because from now on, you're my treasure. I will teach you how to use your strength, and keep you in my grasp. You can only listen to me and listen to my orders. In exchange, I will never abandon you, how's that? "
The ability to read minds was an extremely rare and precious ability. Furthermore, Yue Zhong had heard from Floxenia that she had awakened this ability before the apocalypse. These people were all geniuses, geniuses amongst geniuses. They were different from Yue Zhong, who relied on hard work and struggle to become strong.
Yue Zhong had gone through countless battles and life-and-death situations, relying on the God and Devil System to reach this stage. His awakening to become an Evolver was also due to the help of treasures. He was not a heaven-defying genius, instead, he was just a hardworking mortal. However, he would not underestimate the strength of geniuses. He would only work hard to control them, that way, he could become stronger. (To be continued.
