Chapter 355: Chapter 353: He Can Actually Instant Teleport

The five men looked at Song Yiguo, their eyes filled with uncertainty.

If they had a choice, who would want to die?

But... if they didn’t die, their families would. They had no choice.

So they gritted their teeth and said nothing.

Song Yiguo was never a patient man. With a flick of his blade, one of them fell to the ground, dead.

The other four turned pale with fear, but... they still didn’t speak.

’Death is death, no matter how it comes!’

’As long as our families are safe, what does it matter if we die?’

Seeing this tactic wasn’t working, Song Yiguo’s last shred of patience and mercy vanished.

’Keeping them alive will only put the safety zone in greater danger!’

The ferocity in his eyes turned to icy coldness. His hand rose and fell, like an emotionless machine.

”Call Ding Yang and tell him to make his move now!” After giving the order, Song Yiguo turned and walked toward the scorched entrance to the underground.

This gate was originally supposed to be indestructible.

He didn’t know where they had found the materials, but they had managed to destroy it in a single blast.

’But... it’s fine. The safety zone has multiple contingencies.’

Even if the zombies broke through, they wouldn’t be able to get into the underground safe area.

Just as Song Yiguo was approaching the entrance, a survivor ran out from inside.

Seeing Song Yiguo before him, he charged straight at him.

His eyes held the grim determination of someone marching to their death.

Vice General Du and the others turned at the sound of running footsteps, but from nearly a hundred meters away, they were too late to help.

Another explosion rocked the entrance, the plume of smoke threatening to blacken half the sky.

Vice General Du was the first to react. As he sprinted over, the blast wave sent him flying.

But he didn’t have time to feel the pain. He immediately leaped up and charged toward the site of the explosion again.

He was panicking.

In all his years following Song Yiguo and enduring countless disasters, he had never been this terrified.

’Song Yiguo is the future of Huaxia.’ That’s what he had always believed.

Chen Xing arrived near the explosion a step ahead of him.

It wasn’t that she was worried about Song Yiguo; she wanted to see how many human bombs they had missed.

’That Song Yiguo... he really is something else, quite capable!’

’He can use Instant Teleportation?’

Just before the explosion, she happened to turn and see Song Yiguo move away from the blast, appearing in a safe area in the blink of an eye.

And right now, there he was, standing perfectly fine on the other side.

Only the foolish Vice General Du was charging ahead, heedless of the danger.

The zombie horde wasn’t going to be dealt with anytime soon, so Chen Xing grabbed Vice General Du and started healing him. ”Song Yiguo is fine!”

Only then did Vice General Du see Song Yiguo on the other side of the smoke.

His expression was grim as he stared dangerously at the raging fire.

’The rebel army cannot be allowed to exist!’

’And Fan Kexin, even less so!’

”Young Master Song, you should get back inside the safety zone!” Even though he was covered in injuries, Vice General Du’s first thought was for Song Yiguo. ”Escort Young Master Song back!”

Chen Xing saw the fury in Song Yiguo’s eyes.

’It seems his hatred for the rebel army runs deeper than just this attack, doesn’t it?’

Song Yiguo entered the underground safety zone, while the newly healed Vice General Du joined Chen Xing in the battle.

The repeated explosions had attracted even more zombies.

If they delayed any longer, they probably wouldn’t be able to hold the line.

”Take them all and fall back to the safety zone!” Before long, Chen Xing saw the wall starting to shake.

’There’s no need for everyone to die here!’

She would kill as many as she could on her own and hold back the horde for as long as possible.

Seeing that Chen Xing had already activated her Defense Shield, Vice General Du immediately led his men in retreat.

They had only managed to pull back half their people when the zombie horde successfully toppled the defensive wall.

Chen Xing threw up several iron walls in a row from inside, temporarily blocking the horde.

Although her Meng Hu was tireless, Chen Xing recalled it to her space anyway.

All alone, she began luring the horde, leading them away.

Although the main entrance to the Duole Safety Zone had been destroyed, there were still two backup gates. When the horde arrived and found no one, they all turned to swarm Chen Xing.

Just like that, Chen Xing slowly led the zombie horde away from the defensive line.

But... fate had other plans.

A team of people appeared from nowhere, driving their vehicles straight into the safety zone and successfully drawing the attention of a large portion of the zombies once again.

Even with over a dozen vehicles, Chen Xing spotted Brother Xiao Jin in the lead car at a glance.

As if sensing something, he also looked in Chen Xing’s direction.

But... there were too many zombies. He didn’t see Chen Xing, who was trapped inside the horde, fighting for her life.

As Brother Xiao Jin’s car came to a stop, a woman got out and flashed a bewitching smile at the zombie horde.

The woman was stunningly beautiful, the kind of beauty full of allure and charm.

She didn’t look old, yet she carried herself like a world-weary woman—sexy and enchanting.

The first time Chen Xing saw her, she felt a sense of familiarity.

’Could she be from the Research Institute?’

Fan Kexin turned and extended a hand to Brother Xiao Jin inside the car.

Like a prized canary, Brother Xiao Jin placed his hand in hers. ”Kexin, isn’t it dangerous for us to come in like this?”

Although he knew about Fan Kexin’s abilities, he also had to be wary of Song Yiguo’s power.

While one could say the man had risen through the ranks thanks to his family background, his true strength had always been a mystery.

Almost no one had ever seen him fight, yet everyone was quite wary of him.

”Don’t worry! Song Yiguo is holed up in his safety zone right now, too scared to even show his face!” Fan Kexin’s long, seductive eyes glanced charmingly at the restless zombie horde in the distance.

’There’s definitely something over there.’

But... they couldn’t see it.

Chen Xing, however, got a good look at the situation and even found a moment to call Song Yiguo. ”There’s a good-looking, enchanting, and alluring woman outside your front door!”

”Does she have a beauty mark near the corner of her eye?”

Chen Xing: ”...” ’My eyesight might be good, but... from this far away, how could I possibly see a beauty mark?’

’But... I’ve heard that only devastatingly sexy women have those.’ So she just blurted out, ”I think so!”

”Fan Kexin’s got some nerve, showing up on my turf?” A dangerous glint appeared in Song Yiguo’s eyes.

”Fan Kexin?” Chen Xing had never heard the name.

’But... seeing her relationship with Brother Xiao Jin, and how he listens to her, this woman must be something special.’

’If she’s from the Research Institute, that makes her even more formidable.’

’Seeing how the zombies don’t go near her group after she got out of the car, she must be someone who can control them, too.’

Chen Xing found it a real headache. ’Why is it so easy to control zombies these days?’

’Can just anyone control them now?’

”Fan Kexin is the leader of the rebel army. She’s ’harvested’ quite a few people recently. There are several thousand Superpower Users in her ranks!” Song Yiguo explained briefly. ”Everything north of the Capital City is already under her control. Her ambition has probably grown recently, so she’s come to make a play for my territory!”

”Should I kill her?” Chen Xing asked bluntly.

’Looks like they have some deep-seated history. I wonder if it’s romantic?’

Song Yiguo: ”...”

’That’s Chen Xing for you, always so direct.’

”You probably couldn’t bear to!”
