Chapter 986: Arrangements

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

People hadn’t seen Lin Qiao in a formal military suit for months. The people who didn’t know about the baby had no idea why she wore loose-fitting dresses during the past few months. Of course, the people who knew about the truth weren’t as surprised as the ones who didn’t.

Yuan Tianxing looked much calmer than he was last time.

The people didn’t understand Lin Qiao at first, but then they heard her continue with, “Huaxia Base and Sea City Base have already become enemies. Currently, Huaxia Base is certainly trying to find Sea City Base’s weaknesses. They have now learned about the real situation of Sea City Base’s farm, so Si Kongchen is definitely trying to find the real source of the fresh food that Sea City Base has been providing their people with. I believe that they’ll find out about us in the near future.”

After hearing that, people realized how serious it was.

In the post-apocalyptic era, food was the most important commodity. The infected soil couldn’t grow safe food anymore. Huaxia Base people wanted to bring Sea City Base down, but they needed to solve the food crisis in their base before that. However, they wouldn’t stop gathering useful information against Sea City Base.

It would not take them too long to find out the secrets of All Bing Base through what they had learned from Sea City Base.

Currently, All Beings Base needed to stay vigilant against those underground creatures, those mutated rats, and Huaxia Base. The situation was really problematic.

The human army in the base wasn’t strong enough yet. They could handle small battles, but not real wars. If a real war happened, only the zombie army would be able to guard the base.

“First of all, we need to run a detailed background check on all suspicious people in our base, in case someone sold us out. Then, Yuan Tianxing, raise the security level in the surrounding area. Keep the area five miles round under close watch. Also, Xie Dong, send your people to keep an eye on every hunter group that has exited the base. If they make any contact with suspicious people out there, bring them back immediately. Yun Meng, your mission stays the same. Keep an eye on those underground creatures and let us handle the rest,” said Lin Qiao.

Currently, All Beings Base only had tens of hunter groups. So, it wasn’t so hard to keep an eye on each of them while they were not in the base.

Xie Dong was responsible for training the zombie soldiers while Yun Meng and Qiu Lili kept them under control. Yuan Tianxing, Li Zheng, and his people were responsible for training and managing the human army. As for the other administrative works in the base, most of them had been handed by Chen Yuting, Du Yuanxing, and the others.

The base was still small, so Lin Qiao hadn’t founded an independent military department. That would be put in the schedule after the population of the base went beyond thirty-thousand. Currently, there were only thousands of people living in the base, so starting an independent military department was unnecessary. The base had less than three-thousand soldiers right now, including the common and superpowered ones. Among the other base members, most were women, old people, disabled people, and some hunters.

Yuan Tianxing had recruited three regiments, but compared with Lin Qiao’s three zombie regiments, the human regiments were way too fragile.

The human regiments were composed of ninety percent of commoners and ten percent superpower possessors, while the zombie regiments were purely formed from zombies at level three or four. The difference was drastic.

“What about… Sea City Base? Who will be talking to them?” said Lin Feng with a frown.

Sea City Base’s secret was already leaked. So, they definitely needed to make new plans. Sea City Base and All Being Base had shared interests. All Being Base certainly needed to send representatives to Sea City Base to talk about future plans and be there when Sea City People made decisions, even if they couldn’t take part in the decision-making process.

“You,” Lin Qiao glanced at him and said. She didn’t mention Lin Feng when she made arrangements earlier because she had a special mission for him.

“So, you were waiting for me to ask the question, weren’t you?” Lin Feng looked at her expressionlessly.

“What? Who do you think is more suitable for the job than you?” Lin Qiao shrugged.

She was the only Chief in the base while Lin Feng and Yuan Tianxing were the only two Deputy Chiefs. Yuan Tianxing needed to keep an eye on the surrounding area, so Lin Feng was the only one who was able to travel to Sea City Base.

“Ah, okay. I remember that someone still owes me dinner. Perhaps, I can take Xiaolu and Wu Chengyue to that dinner.” Lin Feng nodded. Wu Chengyue had mentioned that he wanted to invite Lin Feng and his family for dinner, as his wife and daughter always looked after Ling Ling for him.

After the meeting, Lin Qiao came out of the conference room and went straight to her car, heading back to Base Number Two.

In her office, she brought Teng out of her space, who was sleeping again. He had his eyes closed and breathed shallowly through his nose. Lin Qiao sniffed at him but didn’t wake him up. Instead, she put him on the couch and let him sleep.

Teng had a strange scent which was not like that of human beings at all. That might be caused by the virus in his blood. However, Lin Qiao couldn’t detect the vibe of zombies from the baby either.

The boy looked like a human being, but zombies would not want to eat him at all!

As a zombie, Lin Qiao could work constantly without feeding. Unlike her, Teng got hungry all the time. As he woke up, his belly grumbled again.

“Mama, I’m hungry!” Waking up to see the ceiling again, Teng knew that he was lying on a couch. He looked around and recognized the place as Mama’s office. Sensing Mama’s scent from the air, he instantly called her.

Lin Qiao instantly raised her head and dropped the pen in her hand. Then, she stood up and walked to the couch before flashing into her space to bring out the milk that she stored in a vacuum cup earlier to feed Teng.

After feeding him this time, she needed to go back into her space to catch a mama goat and milk it. Thankfully, the grass in her space was rich in energy. The goats and roe deers that fed on the grass were strong, and the mama goats had enough milk to nurse their own babies and Teng.

After feeding Teng, she spent a short while gently patting him on the back, then started working again, leaving Teng helplessly lying on the couch alone and feeling so bored. Sadly, his mother was a total workaholic.

On the other side of the base, Wu Chengyue was listening to Li Yueshan’s report about the news from Sea City Base while wearing a frown. No other emotions were shown on his face except the extra coldness.

“Since the secret is already leaked, we need to cover the traces of the food we have and keep them from finding out the real source,” he said blandly.

He knew that Huaxia Base people would find out about his lie sooner or later, but didn’t expect it to happen so soon. Clearly, the enemies were smarter and more resourceful than him and his people. That made Wu Chengyue very unhappy.

However, what made him even unhappier was the zombie lady! Huaxia Base people had made some provocative moves and provided him with a perfect opportunity to vent his anger.

Seeing that look on his face, Xiao Licheng and Li Yue Shan were wildly aware that their boss was in a very bad mood. But, why? What happened in Sea City Base was definitely not the reason!

They both had the same feeling.
