It was decided that El Mar would lead a few of the zombie kings and leaders out of the base. They would head towards the border between Anhui and Hangzhou to pick up the survivors that had escaped.
Jian Shengtong had already brought his troops into Hangzhou's territory. They were hiding in a factory to rest.
Jian Shengtong and Xia Yushen stood on the roof of the factory while the others hid in the factory below. All of them cut a sorry figure and looked extremely exhausted. Their faces and bodies were covered in dust, sweat, and blood. All of them looked like beggars with dirt all over their faces.
Fortunately, the more people there were, the more power they could muster. The thousands of fighters had been reduced by a lot. But at least they were able to protect the hundreds of women.
Their pursuers, on the other hand, were exhausted as well. Most of the weapons they'd received from Earth Dragon had long since been delivered to Hidden Cloud City. Once the city's leaders were killed, Star Fire's men came to rob them all. Both sides didn't have much ammunition left.
In order to save ammunition, they could only use their abilities to attack. However, Jian Shengtong and Xia Yushen were both level six ability users, and there was only one level six ability user in this group of pursuers. They were no match for Jian Shengtong and Xia Yushen.
It was only because Jian Shengtong's side didn't have enough firepower that they were being suppressed. But it was impossible to defeat Jian Shengtong's side.
"We're almost there. Tell the brothers to hold on." Xia Yushen looked at the map in his hand as he spoke to his assistant.
"Yes." The assistant quickly retreated.
Jian Shengtong stared at the rear with a deep expression, his brows furrowed. He said hesitantly, "Do you think … the leader of the new base will let us in? After all, the people there were originally from Hades Base … "
"Don't worry. For the sake of these women, she'll let us in." Xia Yushen wasn't as worried as Jian Shengtong.
This was why he agreed to let Jian Shengtong save the women. Considering that the people in the new base were all survivors from Hades Base, they would definitely hate them. But as a survivor base, the more people there were, the more power they had. Only with manpower could they create resources, and the base could continue to develop. Only then could they withstand the conditions of the apocalypse and the zombies that filled the world.
As a leader, he had to prioritize the interests of the entire base.
Therefore, they saved these women as a show of loyalty. Even if the survivors of the Old Underworld Base hated them, for the sake of these women, their hatred would be reduced to a certain degree. As for what would happen in the future, that would depend on the future. First, they had to join this base.
When Jian Shengtong heard this, his brows relaxed slightly.
"How far away are those bastards from us?" Xia Yushen's eyes suddenly flashed with a sharp light.
A cold light flashed in Jian Shengtong's eyes as he said, "It's about five kilometers away from here. Their current ammunition can't withstand too much consumption. Otherwise, they won't be able to reach Haicheng safely."
At this moment, the person who had gone out to scout for information suddenly returned. Not long after, he ran to the roof and found Jian Shengtong and the other two.
"Boss, they've given up." A subordinate reported excitedly.
Jian Sheng and the other two looked at each other and asked at the same time, "Speak."
The subordinate replied, "I don't know the reason, but they've already taken a detour to the east. It looks like they're heading straight for Haicheng."
Jian Shengtong asked, "They've already left?"
The subordinate nodded.
Xia Yushen was a little gloomy as he wondered why those people didn't continue chasing. Originally, the other party was very greedy for these women.
What was the reason they gave up?
The two of them didn't know that the reason the enemy gave up was because they received news that Jian Shengtong and the others would encounter a zombie gathering place on the way to the new base. It was like a zombie city, and it was impossible to pass through there. Moreover, they would have to take a long detour.
Considering the consumption of weapons and food on their side, they were already stretched thin. They couldn't afford to stay outside and continue wasting time with Jian Shengtong and the others. Thus, in the end, they could only give up on Jian Shengtong and the others and turn to Haicheng.
In any case, when Jian Shengtong and the others arrived at the zombie gathering place, they would also be in big trouble. They just had to wait to see them in big trouble.
Jian Shengtong didn't have to wait for long before the person who had been sent out to scout returned.
"Boss, the further we go, the fewer zombies there are. I don't know what's going on! But this is very beneficial to us. "
Jian Shengtong and Xia Yushen's eyes lit up as they said, "Is that so? It's almost time to rest. Let's hurry up and get going. "
After all, it wasn't only the enemy who had a shortage of food. They were no exception.
The doors and windows of the factory downstairs were tightly shut, and it was filled with a group of people. Fortunately, this factory was spacious enough to accommodate three to four thousand people. It was just that everyone was sitting together in a pile, leaning against each other. There wasn't even a place to lie down.
In the safest place in the corner, a group of women sat in a pile. These women weren't all weak and incompetent. There were a few strong women who had just awakened and had good leadership skills.
And this group of people was the group of female captives that Lin Qiao had released when he went to the Earth Dragon Base to assassinate Long Yubai.
"Sister Ting, when can we reach the new base?" Everyone leaned together with tired faces, but there was no despair on their faces. At least they were still alive. When they reached the new base, they would have a high chance of living a new life.
Because they heard that the survivors there were all from the old Pluto King's Base, and the deputy leader was their former deputy leader.
With regards to Yuan Tianxing's character, the women here all felt that there was a light shining in their hearts.
Thus, some of the younger girls couldn't wait to ask.
"Soon, just hold on a little longer. We've already endured for so long, we don't care about a day or two, understand? " Sister Ting, who stood at the edge of the group of women, was a woman with her long hair casually tied behind her head. She looked to be in her thirties, but her appearance was somewhat androgynous. Her facial features were regular and carried a sharp aura. Her face was neither too big nor too small, and her eyes were shining brightly. She was also very tall, at least 1.7 meters tall.
People who weren't familiar with her would often be scared away by her sharp eyes and serious expression. But those who were familiar with her would feel an invisible sense of security by staying by her side.
Her words made everyone feel at ease.
"That's great! When we reach the new base, we'll have food to eat and can sleep in peace. "Everyone in the group of women only had this thought.
