Zombie Sister Strategy

“Ah, I’ve heard about that base. It seems that it’s still under construction. I guess that Sea City Base knows them the best as their neighbor,” Si Kongchen smiled as he glanced at Wu Chengyue and said.

“Is that why you didn’t invite them? Because their base is still under construction?” Wu Chengyue smilingly looked at him.

“I wonder if they can build the base or not. After all, they don’t even have one level-seven member. They are just some survivors of the old Hades Base. I figured that they have no reason to waste the time to come all the way here, as that might slow down the construction work,” Si Kongchen laughed to Wu Chengyue, then turned to the people from Hidden Cloud City Base and Sky Fire Base while speaking.

Hearing that, the others reacted in different ways.

Wu Chengyue, Lan Lu, and Lu Zhuofeng learned that Si Kongchen didn’t know that new base enough. He hadn’t even paid any attention to it yet. So, in his eyes, that new base was only a gathering spot of a group of people. He believed that building a new base would be a very difficult thing for those people, not to mention expanding their force.

He thought that that new base didn’t even have a level-seven member. Even if Sea City Base didn’t intend to touch it, any base like Earth Dragon Base would destroy it. Even if no base wanted to lay a finger on it, high-leveled zombies might attack those people. A few groups of zombies would have flattened that small, new base. Based on those thoughts, Si Kongchen figured that they couldn’t possibly have many supplies in store, so he had no interest in that base.

Unlike him, the people from the bases which were relatively closer to that new base knew that although that base was underpopulated, it was not weak. The farther bases didn’t know much about that new base, because they hadn’t been collecting information about them. In their eyes, that was just some place those Hades Base survivors chose to stay.

They also felt strange though. Those people did not have great powers, so why didn’t they just join another base? Hidden Cloud City Base and Sky Fire Base were their enemies, but they could have joined Sky Cloud Base. Why did they insist on building a new base by themselves? Were they able to do that?

It was reasonable that Huaxia Base had no interest in it.

“You didn’t invite them, but it doesn’t mean that they won’t come,” Li Zhengye from Sky Fire Base abruptly joined the conversation. Hearing him, both Wu Chengyue and Lan Lu glanced at him, then turned to the others silently.

He Mu had gone missing. Therefore, Li Zhengye didn’t gather more information than Lu Zhuofeng. He said that purely to make things sound worse.

“If they did come, we’d welcome them,” Si Kongchen’s chiseled face wore a careless smile. As far as he knew, no one but the people in this room and their subordinates had entered his base recently. The people from that new base didn’t show up, or, they came in along with those from the other bases.

“But, I don’t think they have the capability to steal from my base. Believe me, there will soon come a result,” Si Kongchen brought up the original topic again and continued, “If the culprit returns the stolen object unharmed, some of our bullets and bombs might be saved. Because, if we find out who did it before that, things will become ugly for all of us.”

His words made everyone’s face darken slightly, but soon, people adjusted their expressions.

Would Huaxia Base ever be in short of weapons? Surely not! So, when Si Kongchen said that to the other base leaders, his words contained a threatening meaning.

He meant that no one was allowed to leave before the thief was found, and when he found out who did it, a war might begin.

Bases on the current military power of each base, no base would want to fight Huaxia Base. After all, no other base had as strong a military strength as Huaxia Base did. Huaxia Base had the power to fight even two or even three bases at one time.

Huaxia Base didn’t only have a large population. Almost all the two-million residents in that base had their specialties.

Huaxia Base was built up step by step by over two-million survivors. So, without any questions, the living condition in that base was surely much better than that in some sparsely-populated base. In terms of population, Sea City Base was the second largest base in the country. However, as a base with one-million and two-hundred-thousand residents, Sea City Base wasn’t even one third as powerful as Huaxia Base. But still, it was considered the second strongest base. The third and fourth largest bases had the same size of population. The third base was Heilong Base, which had about eight-hundred-thousand survivors from Northeast China, while the fourth was the Hidden Cloud City Base, which had over seven-hundred-thousand people.

In fact, more survivors lived in South China than in the Northeast, yet those survivors were divided into two parts by Hades Base and Earth Dragon Base. If those two bases merged into one, their population would reach the top three. However, having a large population was not a good thing for a base. Large population meant large consumption. Without good productivity, a richly populated base would eventually become overcrowded.

Therefore, Long Yubai only wanted the supplies that belonged to Hades Base, but massacred the residents in Hades Base. He could not afford so many people.

Huaxia Base people were confident about the strength of their base, because their base was rich enough to feed two million people. Otherwise, Si Kongchen wouldn’t threaten the other base leaders openly.

Some of the others had their hearts sinking while others didn’t really care.

Lan Lu stared at Si Kongchen without saying anything.

“What’s wrong? Chief Lan, do you have something to say?” Sensing his gaze, Si Kongchen turned and asked him with a smile.

“I’m wondering who has the guts to offend Huaxia Base. You are such a strong base after all. I think even Sea City Base wouldn’t do it,” Lan smiled, then abruptly turned to Wu Chengyue.

“Of course, we wouldn’t do that! We always treasure peace, so we’d never do such a thankless thing. Why would we? Besides, we had an important researcher who was focusing on anti-virus related research, yet that traitor from your base killed him. The relevant projects in our base have all been stopped. Even if we get that special zombie, we wouldn’t be able to study anything from it, right?” Wu Chengyue responded, also with a smile.

“Haha, I know about that thing. Your base is too peaceful. The opposite would only be someone like Yang Chao who emerged amongst you. If it weren’t for him, that doctor would still be alive,” Li Zhengye abruptly added as he smiled at Wu Chengyue while speaking.

Wu Chengyue nodded, “Chief Li, I guess you are right. Our life was so easy that we even forgot that the zombies outside the base were our biggest enemy.”

“So, I was wondering who on earth had such confidence to steal that zombie. After all, even Sea City Base wouldn’t take a risk to do it,” Lan Lu turned back to Si Kongchen and said.
