1183 Sea City Shelter

After hearing what Lin Kui said, Lin Qiao glanced at the others, then nodded and said, "He's right. Also, those creatures like commoners the most. I think they'll follow the human scent to each base,"

"No way! What should we do then? Aren't those things hard to kill?" Qiu Lili instantly grew anxious.

"Superpower attacks can hardly hurt them, but weapons can," said Lin Kui, "It's hard to kill them indeed though. The ordinary bullets can penetrate their skin at most, but not kill them. It's not easy to stop them either. They are as dangerous as high-leveled mutated beasts."

"We can't kill them, and we can't stop them? Are they more dangerous than the zombies and mutated beasts that we've fought before?" Lin Feng rested his elbows on the table as he looked at Lin Qiao and asked.

Lin Qiao glanced at him, then at the others who were looking at her expectantly. She dropped her eyelids and said, "Let's say this, almost all the attacks launched with the energies generated from the mutation caused by the zombie virus are harmless to them, which means, superpowered human beings, zombies, mutated animals, and plants can hardly hurt those creatures by using their superpowers. Therefore, by the time they find all human bases, mankind will be facing a destructive disaster once again."

People glanced at each other, and the atmosphere instantly grew intense. At last, people all turned back to Lin Qiao silently.

"What should we do to avoid the disaster? Have you discovered anything yet?" Chen Yuting took a glance at the others, and they couldn't help but ask Lin Qiao that question.

Lin Qiao thought for a moment and said, "Except for those underground gorillas, no underground creatures are found near us yet. I think the one closest to Sea City Base are those lizard-like things from Lake Tai. Now, we need to take precautions against those two types of underground creatures. But in the meantime, we need to keep a close eye on the surrounding area, in case any new underground creatures come out near us."

While speaking, she glanced at Wu Chengyue, who was sitting on the other side of the long table.

"Speaking of precaution, you guys are doing it in a very easy way. Zombies can't threaten your base, and you have turned that level-eight gorilla into your pet, haven't you? What other precautions do you need?" Wu Chengyue put an elbow on the table and supported one side of his jaw with it. Then, he tilted his head and looked at her smilingly as he said with a soft voice.

Qiu Lili sneakily leaned her head toward Lin Kui and whispered to him, "I think he's jealous of our base."

Lin Kui took a glimpse at her without saying anything.

Yun Meng spread her hands and said, "Although we don't need to take precautions against those underground gorillas, the threats coming from the underground aren't easier for us. If it's really like what you said, Yuan Tianxing wouldn't have gotten injured."

Lin Feng nodded, "Yes. It's not gonna be easy for us either."

"But, he has sealed the danger off, hasn't he?" said Wu Chengyue, "He made an accurate judgment."

"What are you trying to say?" Lin Qiao looked at him as she narrowed her eyes and said.

Wu Chengyue gave a smile, "So, maybe you should make a trip to Sea City Base with me and see what's going on there. Take the people in your base to the shelter in Sea City Base and let them stay there for a while. If anything happens here, you'll have to release your zombie army anyway, right?"

He believed that in order to keep the zombie army secret, the thousands of human survivors in All Beings Base should all move to Sea City Base for now.

Sea City Base had its own shelter, that could contain hundreds of thousands of people. Adding thousands into it would not be a problem. The shelter in All Beings Base was still under construction. If those underground creatures from Lake Tai found Sea City Base, they would soon find All Beings Base too.

Besides, Sea City Base had a strong fortification and more people. And more people, greater power.

Wu Chengyue's offer was very beneficial for Lin Qiao and her base. After all, the zombie army did need to be kept secret. However, the others responded to him by rolling their eyes while Qiu Lili pointed at him and said directly, "Nice sweet words. You just want our Chief to go to your place, don't you?"

Wu Chengyue looked at the others as he maintained that smile on his face while waving his hand and speaking cheekily, "So tell me, am I right or not?"

Qiu Lili glared at him, trying to come up with some words to argue against him. But in the end, she realized that he was actually right. So, she just pouted and stared at him silently.

The zombie army did need to be kept secret from the human residents in the base. If underground creatures really attacked the base, the base would be vulnerable without the protection of the zombie army. Therefore, hiding in the shelter of Sea City Base might provide the people in All Being Base a better chance to survive.

With composure, Lin Qiao knocked on the table and said, "Let's not talk about taking shelter yet. For now, I think we should wait and see what plan Huaxia Base will have. I believe Si Kongchen will make a move after he learns about those underground creatures. He might use the grand meeting as a cover for his secret action this time. How's the intelligence work on your side?"

The question was for Wu Chengyue. Lin Qiao met Si Kongchen in the Northwest, where he wanted the level-nine nucleus so eagerly. Judging by that fact, he must be up to something.

He didn't obtain the level-nine nucleus, so he would certainly come up with a plan B.

"We have some clues. Huaxia Base people have been keeping their work highly confidential lately. If Si Kongchen didn't leave the base this time, my people wouldn't have had a chance to get that information," Wu Chengyue didn't seem to take Si Kongchen's action seriously.

"In this case, our priority now is to keep a close eye on those underground creatures. Be ready to transfer our residents as quickly as possible. We can't send them to the shelter yet, because we don't know how long they'll have to stay there. That might cause widespread panic, which would be an extra unwanted problem," Lin Qiao thought for a moment, and then said to the others. "Any disagreements?"

The others shook their heads in response; there were no objections.

As she had said, it was not sure yet when those creatures would start to attack human bases, and when the disaster would come. Preparations needed to be done, but sending people to the shelter was something to do when there were no other solutions.

After all, it was not certain how long people would need to live in the shelter for. Before or after sending them into the shelter, the base managers would have to recalculate the amount of food and supplies needed by the people in the shelter. Replenishing supplies was not a mission to be accomplished within a short time.

Wu Chengyue waved his hand again and said, "I have a question. Have you just agreed to go to Sea City Base with me? You need to go and check the defense installations and the environment in the shelter, as well as the other facilities…"

"Who said I agreed," Lin Qiao interrupted him, "Do I need to handle a small matter like that myself? I'll send someone else to do it. Hmm… Lin Feng will go. I'll be managing the other works in the base."
