Chapter 32 A Monster-Like Body
Zhou Yuan arrived at the top of the wall.
The group of people was not far from the base.
At this moment, a strange scene happened.
The zombies that would bite anyone they saw actually retreated slowly after seeing this group of people, not daring to get close.
This scene piqued Zhou Yuan’s curiosity.
Could it be that this group of people had a way to drive away the zombies?
No wonder they dared to walk in the zombie-infested wilderness.
The group of people stopped not far from the wall. They looked at the base and seemed to be communicating in low voices.
Seeing this, Zhang He reminded him softly,
“Mr. Zhou, this group of people doesn’t seem to have good intentions!”
To this, Zhou Yuan said indifferently,
“Let’s wait and see what they are up to.”
On the other side.
The man, who was wrapped in black cloth with only his eyes exposed, said,
“Captain, what’s the plan?”
“The same old method?”
The man, who was referred to as captain, had a burly figure and broad shoulders.
The area under the cloth was bulging as if his body was all muscles.
“No, this time we’ll go in and rest first.”
“The people we are meeting this time seem to be quite interesting.”
Hearing this, the person who spoke earlier frowned and looked at the base’s wall with disdain.
The captain spoke again,
“Fourth brother, don’t be too impulsive later. Restrain yourself after you go in.”
“I feel a little uneasy.”
“Almost like something is watching us in the dark!”
The fourth brother, who only revealed his eyes, waved his hand impatiently.
Everyone then followed the captain’s footsteps and walked towards the wall.
When they came closer, the captain said in a clear voice,
“Friend, can you let us in to rest for a while?”
“We’re too tired from the journey.”
Zhang He wanted to reject the offer on Zhou Yuan’s behalf.
In his opinion, this group of people was really strange.
However, Zhou Yuan stopped him and said,
“Anyone can enter my base.”
“As long as each of you hands over three zombies’ crystalline cores!”
The captain was surprised to hear this.
The man, who was called “Fourth brother”, laughed in disdain.
“Three crystalline cores?”
“Is your base the heaven?”
“Do you know the value of three crystalline cores?”
“Even if you tear up the land of your base, you can’t even sell it for three crystalline cores!”
Zhou Yuan said indifferently,
“Oh? Isn’t crystalline core just anywhere?”
The fourth brother fell silent.
Zombie crystalline cores were indeed valuable in the place where they came from.
However, here, zombies were everywhere.
The value of the crystalline core did drop slightly.
However, the fourth brother immediately said,
“That’s because there is a huge wave of zombies here.”
“Generally speaking, a crystalline core is hard to find.”
“I can understand that you’re all ignorant and don’t know the value of the crystalline core!”
“After all, you’re all cowards hiding in a corner!”
Upon hearing this, Zhang He and the others were instantly enraged.
Was this the attitude one should have when entering someone else’s base?
Just as he was about to scold the man, Zhou Yuan stopped him.
“Oh, then you know the value of a crystalline core?”
“Of course, I know. Crystalline core…”
“Shut up!”
The fourth brother wanted to continue but was stopped by the captain in time.
The function of the crystalline core was not a secret.
However, to some people, it couldn’t be exposed at will.
Otherwise, the deepest secret of these people would be made public.
Right after he was stopped, the fourth brother instantly reacted.
“You’re trying to trick me into telling you?”
“You want to get beaten up, don’t you?”
Zhou Yuan shook his head and felt that it was a pity.
As far as crystalline cores were concerned, he only knew that they contained energy and could be exchanged for gold coins in the system.
However, he had no idea about its actual use and value.
He had almost managed to get the information out.
Zhou Yuan’s gaze fell on the captain.
After the captain stopped his fourth brother, he took out 18 zombie crystalline cores, put them into a small bag, and threw them at Zhou Yuan, who was on the wall.
“Friend, we really just want to borrow the place to rest. We don’t have any ill intentions.”
After weighing the crystalline cores in his hand, Zhou Yuan nodded and said,
“Come in,”
Zhang He immediately put down the ladder they had made.
When the group of people saw this, they all smiled mockingly.
Despite that, under the leadership of the captain, they all chose to climb the ladder to the wall.
However, when it was time to go down the wall, some people still chose the ladder.
The fourth brother snorted disdainfully and said,
“Go, go, go, go to the side.”
“You’re delaying my business.”
After saying that, he leaped and directly jumped down.
One had to know that the wall was no longer as tall as it was in the beginning.
Not only was the wall ten meters tall, but its thickness had also been widened to two meters.
It could be said to be impregnable.
However, this height of ten meters was not worth mentioning in the eyes of the fourth brother.
He jumped down and landed steadily with a bang.
Then, as if nothing had happened, he patted the dust off his body.
This scene shocked Zhang He and the others.
Zhou Yuan’s eyes were filled with a hint of excitement.
Things seemed to be getting more and more interesting
The group arrived at the housing area.
These were all new and under construction houses.
Zhang He led the way and arranged rooms for these people.
These houses occupied a large area and were more than enough to accommodate six people.
At first, the permanent residents of those bases could live in rooms of ten people.
However, even so, the fourth brother was very dissatisfied.
“Hey! You’re arranging such a place for us?”
“We spent 18 crystalline cores to get in!”
“Even dogs don’t live in these houses!”
Zhang He and the others were even angrier when they heard this.
However, before Zhang He could say anything, one of the fourth brother’s companions spoke first.
“I’ll kill you if you keep talking about dogs!”
The fourth brother was stunned for a moment, then he immediately laughed awkwardly and said,
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I forgot!”
Zhou Yuan could not help but think as he watched this.
Could that person’s nickname be related to ‘dog’?
Or was there some other reason that he couldn’t bear to hear people use the word ‘dog’ as an analogy?
With a thought, Zhou Yuan said indifferently,
“Zhang He, arrange a better place for our guest.”
When Zhang He heard this, he didn’t agree immediately, which was rare.
He wasn’t disobeying Zhou Yuan, he was targeting those people. “Mr. Zhou, this is the only house left!”
After saying that, he turned to look at the fourth brother.
“You really have a lot of complaints in a day!”
“It’s up to you to stay!”
These words instantly enraged the fourth brother.
“What did you just say?”
“You dare to talk to me like this?”
“Are you tired of living!”
As he spoke, he was about to move forward.
Although the fourth brother seemed impressive when he jumped off the ten-meter-high wall, Zhang He was not afraid at all.
After all, this was their base, and they had thousands of brothers.
He did not know why Zhou Yuan had been so patient, but he could not take it anymore!
“Attack!” Zhang He ordered when he saw the other party charging over.
Immediately, a group of muscular men with knives, axes, and clubs in their hands rushed out and surrounded the man.
Who knew that when the fourth brother saw this, he became even angrier, like a lion that was provoked by a hyena.
With a ripping sound, the black cloth covering the fourth brother exploded.
He revealed his true appearance.
Zhang He and the others were instantly shocked.
Zhou Yuan’s eyes lit up in surprise. The reason was that under the black cloth of this so-called fourth brother, there was a monster-like body.
