Zombie Sister Strategy

“We can’t get into All Beings Base now, so why don’t we go to Sea City Base?” Hiding in the sewer, Luo Yusheng suggested.

The two of them were alone at the moment. They were both at level-four, but they restrained their powers and pretended to be level-three when they made their way into All Beings Base. Now, they were outside. The food and weapon they had weren’t enough for them to travel to Huaxia Base in the north or Sky Fire Base in the northwest. Therefore, Sea City Base was their only choice.

They couldn’t stay out there for long. The outside world was too dangerous after all.

Wang Chong hesitated and said, “I’m worrying that All Beings Base might try to find us in Sea City Base, or they might keep an eye there.”

After all, every base had records for the people who entered and exited.

He was probably right. Luo Yusheng thought for a moment and then asked, “What should we do then? Should we go straight to Sky Fire Base? That’s a long way to go. I’m afraid we can’t make it till there.”

Wang Chong shook his head and said, “It’s too soon for us to go to Sky Fire Base. The information we have now is not very valuable. We haven’t found out the secrets of this All Beings Base, but they are alerted already. Even if we go to Sky Fire Base now, we wouldn’t be able to get ourselves anything good.”

Luo Yusheng knitted his brows and said, “Indeed. It’s not worthy for us to travel all the way there.”

With that thought, he gave up on that idea. Then, another problem popped up in his mind, “Oh, just now, we didn’t detect any heat source from those people. Are they zombies? Are they humans? I’ve asked around, but no one from Base Number One is working in the farm. They are now mostly building the fence base for Base Number Two.”

Wang Chong narrowed his eyes and said, “I think they might be zombies. But, the farm is within the safe zone. Why didn’t All Beings Base people kill those zombies? Or… have they given up on the farm already? Didn’t they say that all farmlands are dead now?”

Luo Yusheng thought for a few seconds and then said, “But why didn’t they clean out those zombies? Why are they keeping them?”

“I don’t know,” said Wang Chong, “But now, I think that All Beings Base has a lot of secrets indeed! Those soldiers with sunglasses are weird too. And, people aren’t allowed to enter Base Number Two.”

Back in the base, the two of them didn’t dare to carry too many devices, so they didn’t get a chance to observe those soldiers who wore sunglasses all day through the special telescope. If they did that, they would find out that no source of heat could be detected from those soldiers either.

“Those soldiers belong to Base Number Two. If we can get into Base Number Two, we might be able to find something out. The problem is, we can’t even get into Base Number One now,” said Luo Yusheng.

The two of them sighed together. The current situation was not good for them, and they didn’t know where to go next. Returning to All Beings Base was, of course, not a choice. Sky Fire Base and Huaxia Base were both too far away. They had no other choice but to try their luck in Sea City Base.

At that moment, Xie Dong had visited all the entrances of the base and gotten a list of the people who exited the base earlier but hadn’t returned yet.

“Those people might have never entered our base. They might be observing us from the outside the whole time,” Qiu Lili couldn’t help but share her doubts.

“They are a small group. I don’t think they can stay out there for long without getting supplies from out base. But, what you said is also possible,” said Yuan Tianxing.

“I think they won’t come back to our base next. They are most likely heading to Sea City Base. I’ll tell Sea City Base people to strictly guard every entrance of their base,” said Xie Dong. He didn’t care how and when those people showed up. He was only thinking about what to do next.

“I agree,” Yuan Tianxing nodded.

Qiu Lili shrugged and said, “I think I might as well go out and try to track them. I might be able to find some traces they left.”

Having finished talking, she stood up and left the conference room. Anyhow, she came and left whenever she wanted. The others made no reaction to that, but kept discussing the further plan.

“How is the current size of the zombie army in Base Number Two now?” Yuan Tianxing abruptly turned to Xie Dong and asked.

As far as he knew, Lin Qiao, Qiu Lili, Yun Meng, and Lin Kui were the only level-seven ones. Under their commands were twelve zombie kings and queens. But, he had no knowledge about the numbers of the zombies from level-five to level-three. Those soldiers with sunglasses who patrolled in the base every day were all at level-three. No level-four ones were seen among them.

Xie Dong said, “Currently, we have about a hundred trained level-five zombies, five-hundred level-four zombies, and two-thousand level-three zombies. They are all well-trained and divided into two regiments. We are still recruiting and training new zombies for the third regiments. They are obedient because they are under the control of Chief’s blood.”

One regiment normally had one-thousand or one-thousand and five-hundred men. A zombie regiment under Lin Qiao’s command was composed of one-thousand to one-thousand and two-hundred zombies. Currently, Qiu Lili and Yun Meng had been managing the two regiments, each with the help of five kings and queens. Lin Kui wasn’t arranged in the army yet.

The zombies under level-three weren’t in the army either. Lin Qiao had only been keeping them around the base. They would be trained and put in the army only after they entered higher levels.

The two regiments under Lin Qiao’s command were way more powerful than a normal regiment because they were composed of zombie soldiers.

Yuan Tianxing made eye-contact with Lin Feng, then nodded and said, “We thought the numbers would be bigger.”

They had seen Lin Qiao bring back large batches of zombies. The huge crowd that used to surround the base, and was now hiding near Mount Wu area, contained at least eighty-thousand zombies. However, it turned out that there were only two or three thousand zombie soldiers in Lin Qiao’s official zombie army.

“You all know that lower-leveled zombies barely have any sanity,” said Xie Dong, “Chief has upgraded them with her own blood, but she still doesn’t trust them completely. After all, zombie instincts can be tricky.”

The ones who refused to follow orders were killed directly. They might be killed by someone else in the future anyway. By dying in the base, they could at least contribute their nuclei.

“That’s true,” Yuan Tianxing nodded.

“We have to keep the secret of Base Number Two. At the very least, we need to make sure that no other base will target it in one or two decades,” said Lin Feng.

Xie Dong nodded silently.
