Si Kongchen was having a meeting with the others, talking about whether they should directly attack Sea City Base or do something else. After all, they would need a formal reason to attack Sea City Base openly.
Si Kongchen’s original plan was to control those underground creatures, make them attack Sea City Base, and release the virus inside in the meantime. After that, he would be able to accuse Sea City Base of carrying out illegal studies on the zombie virus and attack it openly. He would be able to find all kinds of reasons to accuse Sea City Base. As long as the virus was leaked, the base would need to take responsibility.
“What reason do we have now to attack Sea City Base? They have found out about your original plan already. We can’t attack them for no reason, can we?” Wei Haichao glanced at the others and then asked Si Kongchen.
Si Kongchen had been black as thunder the whole time. “Why do we need a reason? We don’t need any reason!” he said in a cold voice.
Some of the others gave a slight start as they looked at him and fell into thoughts.
“Are you talking about attacking them without any reason?” Liu Zhinan looked at him and asked.
All the others had their eyes fixed on Si Kongchen.
“Yes,” Si Kongchen snorted coldly and said, “Why do I need a reason? You’ve come up with all kinds of plans and yet they’ve found out about all of them. We should start a real war this time. Let’s see if they have the power to fight us.”
“But, won’t the other bases be against it? Also, the residents of our base won’t like it. What if they protest against the war?” Han Xiao found Si Kongchen’s plan inappropriate.
“The other bases? They soon won’t be having the right to go against us. Which exact base will be against us? Heilong Base? Green Mountain Base? Mongols Base? Or that All Beings Base? What power do they have to go against us? As for our own residents… That won’t be a problem. Our base is over-populated anyway. The products of soil-less cultivation can’t feed them all. They can leave if they don’t want to stay here,” Si Kongchen raised his brows and said.
Wei Haichao looked at the others as he thought for a moment and said, “That’ll be nice. It’ll save us a lot of trouble. I think it’s a good plan.”
At that moment, a squad leader walked quickly to the door of the meeting room and reported something to Wei Haichao’s assistant, who was staying by the door. On hearing what the squad leader said, Wei Haichao’s assistant immediately knitted his brows. After that, he quietly pushed the door open and walked up behind Wei Haichao. Bending over, he whispered something in the latter’s year without disturbing the others in the room.
Wei Haichao had noticed his assistant when the latter walked in. After hearing his report, he immediately furrowed his eyebrows and then turned to look at the latter questioningly, who nodded. As Wei Haichao stayed silent for a few seconds, he waved at him and then turned and left.
He had kept as quiet as possible. However, everyone in the meeting room had noticed his entrance. Once he left, they fixed their eyes on Wei Haichao.
After all, the assistant wouldn’t interrupt such an important meeting if he didn’t have something very important to report to his boss. Anything not so urgent could wait until the meeting was over.
After signaling for his assistant to leave, Wei Haichao raised his head and looked at the others as he said, “There are a crowd of zombies at the west gate. They made no reaction to our anti-zombie drug. I think they’re controlled by higher-leveled zombies.”
“Doesn’t the anti-zombie drug work? How large is the crowd?” On hearing that the anti-zombie drug which was developed in his base was not working, Si Kongchen couldn’t help but feel annoyed. As same as Wei Haichao, he had his brows knitted as well.
All the actions he had taken recently had been ruined. Not a single good thing had been happening to him. And now, even his anti-zombie drug wasn’t working anymore.
All kinds of negative emotions were surging inside him.
“About ten-thousand of them,” said Wei Haichao, “They’re rushing fiercely at our base. I don’t know what exactly is happening, but I guess there’s a level-seven zombie controlling them.”
For such a large group of zombies acting uniformly, there was always at least one level-seven zombie controlling them. Only the top-leveled zombies could neglect the anti-zombie drug which was spread miles away around the base.
Si Kongchen immediately stood up, saying, “I’ll go and take a look. Let’s see what kind of level-seven zombie it is. How dare it challenge us!”
While speaking, he put on his hat and turned to walk out of the meeting room with large steps, wearing heavy combat boots. He was just in need of a target to vent his anger on. He was going to vent his rage on Sea City Base, but as the zombies had brought themselves to him, he decided to take them as the appetizer!
After watching Si Kongchen leave with a tense vibe, the others glanced at each other and shrugged as they followed him out. Wei Haichao glanced at Han Xiao, saying with his eyes – ‘He’s been quite angry lately!’
Han Xiao looked at him and responded – ‘That level-seven zombie is gonna suffer.’
Wei Haichao nodded in agreement.
At that moment, Yun Meng and her squad were standing behind the zombie crowd outside Huaxia Base. They roared out loud from time to time to summon more zombies. ,
Yun Meng had developed a new skill recently: She was now able to summon zombie beasts. Maybe because she possessed animal power, she was able to utter a different kind of sound to summon zombie beasts once she shifted to her beast shape.
Zombie beasts had always been faster and nimbler than zombies, who were transformed from humans.
The zombie crowd summoned by Yun Meng was approaching Huaxia Base from a distance. Yun Meng didn’t plan to let the zombies attack Huaxia Base for real. She only wanted to create some noises to distract Si Kongchen and his people. In other words, she was bluffing.
While Yun Meng was summoning more zombies to intimidate Huaxia Base people, Kong Qingming and his people had already sneaked into Huaxia Base with the help of the spies who had been inserted in Huaxia Base long ago. After that, then quickly moved toward where Li Yue He was.
The lab Li Yue He was kept in used to be managed by Hu Zhiyong. After Hu Zhiyong was disabled, Liu Zhinan took it over. However, Liu Zhinan was mainly focusing on his own lab, and he wasn’t taking Hu Zhiyong’s lab seriously.
That was perfect for Kong Qingming and his people!
