Chapter 1339: There’s an Ambush Ahead

On hearing Chen Yuting’s order, people drew their guns and grew on full alert immediately. Yet, the moving speed of the motorcade stayed the same.

At that time, Jingyan and a squad of zombie soldiers had already been moving forward. Following the aroma of living human beings, she gave her soldiers a hand gesture to signal for them to restrain their vibes. Soon after that, she stopped moving hundreds of meters from those people and hopped onto a high place. Taking a look around, she turned and took a detour toward the enemy.

She and her soldiers moved as fast as the wind. That was a windy dark night, so the noises caused by her and her squad could barely be heard.

About two hundred meters from the enemy, Jingyan raised a hand to give her soldiers another signal. Following her movement, her soldiers scattered swiftly and silently as they started approaching the unidentified enemies from all directions. As there were still two-hundred meters of safe distance from the enemy, they only formed half a circle for the moment.

Next, Jingyan started moving forward alone. She stopped tens of meters from the enemy and tried her best to hide her vibe as she looked at those people closely, carefully sensing their vibes.

Those people had been trying to hide their vibes as well. Their vibes weren’t fully restrained though. Chen Yutin’s team was still at a distance away, so they weren’t yet on full vigilance. That was probably why they leaked some of their vibes.

Jingyan approached them quietly. Based on the vibes she had detected, she slowly figured out that the strongest one among those people was at level-six only. However, about ten of them were at level five. The rest were at levels three and four, and some were commoners.

Those people showed up in the middle of the night on the only way led from Sea City Base to All Beings Base. They were hiding by the roadside, restraining their vibes. Apparently, they planned to ambush Chen Yuting and his team!

Jingyan didn’t run up to those people directly but hid up somewhere leeward and about thirty meters away from them. Hiding there, she listened carefully to any noise those people caused. As long as the wind didn’t change direction, she could hear some of their conversations through the wind. Zombies mostly had great hearing. She had reached level-six already, so her hearing had surely grown even sharper.

She needed to figure out who those people were. She guessed they were from Huaxia Base.

With that thought, she closed her eyes and focused on her ears to listen to their conversations.

“Boss, the targets are two miles away from us!”

“Hmm, keep a close eye on them. Come back to me when they are one mile from us!”

“Yes, sir!”

A gust of wind brought some pieces of another conversation into Jingyan’s ears, “Can you deal with Chen Yuting? He’s at level-six. He possesses earth power, and he is a good fighter…”

“Don’t worry. We’re only about to draw him away and not kill him… Our job is only to distract them.”

“If you’re going to pretend to be a robber, you need to act like one… You know what those robbers would do…”

“I get it…”

Jingyan didn’t hear the full conversation but had already gathered quite some information from what she had heard. Those people were planning to pretend to be robbers and bar the transport team’s road. They didn’t seem to aim to destroy the team. What did they really want?

Based on what she had learned, Jingyan figured that it should be a trap. The enemy might have some further plans.

Meanwhile, Chen Yuting’s team came closer and closer. As the motorcade was about a mile away from the enemy, Jingyan left abruptly and landed somewhere hundreds of meters from the enemy, hiding in the darkness and waiting quietly.

Two seconds later, two men quietly came toward her. They were obviously going to report to the people who were ambushing Chen Yuting and his people. One of them had green power and one with wind power; they were both at level-four.

Jingyan hopped onto the highest spot on the road before them and hid there. The moment the two men came to her, she leaped down and pounced on one of them like a bolt of lightning, sinking her fingers into the man’s skull. Before landing, she flashed across the air and showed up behind the other man, who hadn’t yet realized that his friend was dead already.

Puff! The second man heard the strange noise caused by Jingyan when she killed the first man. He turned to see what happened but didn’t see his friend. As he paused with surprise, prepared to search for his friend, the zombie girl showed up behind her and then the zombie claws penetrated his heart.

“Eh-hem…” The wind-powered man stood on the tree stiffly as he popped his eyes in shock and stared at the human hand came out of his chest. Then, he slowly turned back and saw a pair of zombie eyes which were purely black but with red pupils.

Before he realized what had happened, he suffered a piercing pain from his head and then he died.

Crack! Jingyan broke his skull, dug out his energy nucleus, and then quickly collected all his weapons and gear. After that, she collected everything the first man she killed had too.

After doing all that, she turned and quickly moved toward Chen Yuting and his team.

Chen Yuting’s team stopped moving once Jingyan showed up. “What did you find? Who are they?” Chen Yuting asked her.

Jingyan had put her sunglasses back on. Standing in front of Chen Yuting, she said, “About a mile ahead are people on both sides of the road. They’re from Huaxia Base. But this time, they don’t intend to kill all of us. They plan to pretend to be robbers to distract us and then send their people to blend into our team and hide to find a way into our base.”

On hearing what she said, Chen Yuting thought for a moment and responded, “I guess Si Kongchen has adjusted his plan. He now intends to send people into our base to find out our secrets.”

“How’s their power level?” he asked another question.

“There are one-hundred and thirty-five of them, including one level-six, ten level-five, about sixty commoners. The rest are all at levels three and four. They are all armed to the teeth, and their weapons are all new. Look.”

While speaking, she put the weapons she got from the two men on the hood and showed them to Chen Yuting. Those were the latest models of energy guns developed by Huaxia Base, many times more powerful than ordinary pistols. The firing range of those guns was much longer than that of pistols as well.
