624 The Meeting of Leaders

Next morning, the leader of Huaxia Base sent his people to invite the leaders of other bases to discuss what happened last night.

The seats in the reception room were well arranged. Every Chief had an armchair, with a tea table by the side. Behind that were two armchairs, with a tea table in the middle. Those were for the relatively high-placed people under the Chiefs, such as Deputy Chiefs.

Si Kongchen sat in the host's seat as he smilingly said to the other base leaders, "I assume you have all learned what happened last night. The source of material that we used for making the antidote was stolen. We haven't even found a clue of it yet. So now, we have sealed off our base. The base will not be unsealed until we have found the source of the material. Thank you all for understanding."

The group of base leaders nodded at him knowingly, yet no one could tell what they each had been thinking.

"What a coincidence! It wasn't stolen earlier or later. Instead, it went missing right when we all gathered here. I guess some among the people in this room came with plans," Lu Zhuofeng raised his eyebrows and said to Si Kongchen with a smile.

Si Kongchen gave him a smile and responded, "Chief Lu, did you have that kind of a plan? You mentioned the people in this room, so I suppose you are included as well, right?"

"I am curious about the source of the material you have lost. I heard that the antidote is made from the blood of a special zombie, and the parts of several kinds of mutated animals and plants. Chief Si, can you please tell us which material is missing now?" Wu Chengyue sat in front of Lu, wearing his daily smile.

Si Kongchen didn't plan to hide the truth. He looked at Wu Chengyue and replied, "The special zombie was stolen. It's the source of the most important material."

He was planning to make the zombie disappear right before the eyes of all those base leaders, then move it to the next hiding spot. In that case, people would think that Huaxia Base wouldn't be able to produce more antidote, and then, he would have every reason to raise the price.

Si Kongchen didn't come up with that idea, the board did. He thought it was a good idea, so he approved the action.

Unexpectedly, things didn't develop in the way they wanted. They planned to tell the others that the zombie had gone missing, and now, it was missing for real.

People had guessed that it was the zombie which had been stolen, but didn't expect Si Kongchen to say it out so soon. After all, the zombie was stolen in their own place when some people from other bases were there. They sealed off the base and forbade people from leaving, meaning that they were suspecting the people from other bases. Now, as Si Kongchen had said it out loud in that meeting, it was clear that he didn't plan to show the other base leaders any respect.

Those base leaders had no idea that it was a plan of Huaxia Base, and that in the end, someone else took advantage of it.

"Oh, I was curious about how special that zombie was, and was looking forward to Chief Si giving us an introduction. Now, it seems that I won't even have a chance to see it," Lan Lu smiled and said.

In a frank manner, he told Si Kongchen that he was indeed interested in that zombie. Hearing that, the others had their expressions changed. Si Kongchen even had his eyes glowing with a cold light.

"Green Mountain Base, you've been hiding pretty well. Last time, your base sent out a squad which included a level-seven and a level-six to hunt a traitor, who was at level-seven too. Can you get level-seven people for free? There're so many of them in your base!" Wu Chengyue said to Level-seven with laughter.

"Ah, we don't have a large population in our base, but our overall strength is not bad. Tang He wasn't just a random traitor… He was an important administrator in our base. We just don't know why he betrayed us," Lan Lu smiled at him and responded.

"So, even though you are a small base, you are powerful. Why haven't you been communicating with the other bases? Your base isn't a secret paradise, is it? You've been hiding somewhere without letting the others know about you," Wu Chengyue kept joking with him. Their conversation was completely off the topic.

When it came to the mysterious Green Mountain Base which emerged in the fifth year after the apocalypse, the others had great interests as well. Therefore, none of them interrupted Wu Chengyue.

"I share the same thought as Chief Wu. Chief Lan, you are not only a level-eight man, but also a possessor of spirit power. Upgrading is a difficult thing for the possessors of that special kind of power, right? The higher, the harder. However, you made it to level-eight without letting us hear anything about it. Were you planning to show up suddenly to scare us?" Lu Zhuofeng said smilingly as well.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.novelhall.comfor visiting.

Wu Chengyue had seen Lei Cheng and Zhenghao once. He talked to Lan Lu only ease the tense atmosphere, and also to be friendly with him. Without a doubt, he was holding no bad intentions.

But, Lu Zhuofeng was not like him. He emphasized on Lu Zhuofeng's level and power, so everyone's attention was attracted to Lan Lu on hearing what he said.

A level-eight possessor of spirit power was indeed a special being who was able to hurt the others with a single thought. High-leveled people wouldn't die under his spirit power, but might have their brain damaged. But, lower-leveled people would directly go mad, or even have brain death. More seriously, a spirit-power attack might make the brain of an unprepared person explode, which would kill that person immediately.

That kind of power wasn't so effective on zombies, but was highly threatening to human beings.

Sitting behind Lan Lu were two level-seven superpowered people. Except for Huaxia Base, the three of them had already made the strongest force on the scene. Inevitably, the others grew vigilant against them.

"We are not the only new base in the country. I guess you have also heard about the new base in Hangzhou City, right? It's weird though. Chief Si, didn't you invite the leader of that new base?" Lan Lu smiled with composure, then changed the topic to the new base.

At that moment, Lin Qiao, who had been listening to the meeting, wanted very much to kick Lan Lu's chair. He was actually using her base as a shield!

Lin Qiao was there alone, invisible, without paying attention to that black panther. The base had been sealed off anyway, so the panther couldn't leave the base easily. She planned to let him stroll around in the base and learn about his current situation. As long as he was conscious, he couldn't possibly ignore that.

Besides, Lin Qiao was able to sense his vibe clearly. Therefore, she knew about his every move.

So now, she stayed cool and came here to watch the meeting. But, someone mentioned her new base not long after the meeting was started.
