Chapter 635: Chapter 635: Now This Is Awkward
Bai Anhai still had a deep impression of Wang Lu.
A man crying and begging for zombies to kill him.
Yet he couldn’t get his wish; every zombie would run away at the sight of him and never harm him.
"He looks different than before."
Bai Xiqin looked at the confident Wang Lu, with a slight smile on her lips.
This man has risen!
Indeed, with zombies fleeing from him, it’s definitely a great skill that, if used properly, can allow someone to get by effortlessly in the apocalypse.
Collecting supplies and the like would also be top-notch.
"Xiao Ming, does this man have any relation to you?"
Bai Anhai asked Zhang Yiming.
He had a bold idea.
The reason zombies avoided Wang Lu might be because a powerful Zombie King was protecting him from behind.
That’s why zombies ran whenever they saw Wang Lu.
"No."
Zhang Yiming glanced at Wang Lu, his eyelid twitching slightly.
Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming had subdued three Zombie Kings.
In that bet, after he won, the followers of Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming became his followers.
Even the Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming became his subordinate.
He commanded the Zombie Kings with great ease.
But, those three Zombie Kings had some kind of brain glitch and were always secretly protecting an ordinary man.
Protecting him would have been enough.
Lately, this ordinary man, for some unknown reason, became suddenly excited and started collecting crystal cores with other human survivors.
Using the principle that zombies wouldn’t harm Wang Lu, many zombies were trapped and killed.
This was quite awkward.
Luckily, Zhang Yiming was inherently disgusted by zombies, so he didn’t feel bad about a hundred zombies dying.
For some reason, Zhang Yiming always felt something was off, that those three Zombie King followers had faulty brains.
"Then his skill is really something to be envious of."
Bai Anhai muttered softly.
"If you want this skill, it’s possible too." Zhang Yiming’s thin lips curved slightly, "You can have this skill wherever you go."
His brainwaves evolved when he encountered the Zombie Whale by the sea, evolving to a higher rank.
Anywhere he had been.
Wherever he released his brainwaves.
No zombie would disobey his orders.
He could become the world’s Zombie Terminator!
"Then, forget it." Bai Anhai shook his head gently, "I’m afraid of being dissected!"
Besides being dissected, it’s also easy to be mistaken for a Zombie King. Humans will do anything to fight against zombies.
Don’t be fooled by how well Wang Lu seems to be doing, but he could see that the people standing next to Wang Lu were always observing his behavior.
Maybe they were looking for how Wang Lu managed to keep zombies from eating him.
Maybe they were wary of Wang Lu, fearing he was a conscious zombie.
In short, no matter how nice they sounded, they were still on guard against him.
Upon hearing Bai Anhai’s words, Zhang Yiming glanced at Wang Lu and his group, his eyes slightly dimming.
If he often met with Xiao Niu and their family, the Bai Family would also be viewed as outcasts by others!
Just like last time when Captain Zhu said that the Bai Family had colluded with zombies and betrayed humanity.
This was something Zhang Yiming could not tolerate at all.
Zhang Yiming subconsciously paused his steps, trailing one step behind Bai Anhai, also keeping a slight distance.
This tiny bit of distance might seem negligible to others, but for Zhang Yiming, it was the biggest concession he could make.
He really couldn’t achieve never seeing her again, restraining himself from releasing his feelings, almost consuming all his strength.
If they were to stop meeting, he thought he might go crazy, truly turning into Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming.
"Brother Bai?"
It was around this time that Wang Lu also noticed Bai Anhai and his group, quickly getting up to greet them.
The pork and green onion dumplings made by the Bai Family smelled so good, eating them made him not want to be bitten by zombies anymore, giving him hope to live.
In other words, the Bai Family was like a ray of light in this apocalypse, merely passing through his world by chance, yet he saw brightness.
"What brings Brother Wang here?"
Seeing Wang Lu greeting them, Bai Anhai, along with Bai Xiqin and the others, approached the large tree where Wang Lu was lounging.
Bai Xiqin noticed that as they walked over, these people’s eyes cautiously scanned over her family.
One oily-faced middle-aged fat man’s gaze lingered on Bai Xiqin for two more seconds, his eyes carrying a hint of sleaziness.
"We heard there’s a way here to quickly enhance superpowers, so we came to check it out."
Wang Lu smiled at Bai Anhai, no longer with the wretched look of begging zombies to bite him from before.
"Has Brother Wang awakened a superpower?" Bai Anhai was a bit surprised.
From the start, he hadn’t seen Wang Lu use any superpower. If zombies not biting counted as a superpower, could it still rise in rank?
"No, I’m still an ordinary person, but people in our Gale Squad have superpowers. They are my team members, and we progress, grow, and search for supplies together."
Wang Lu pointed to the four men beside him.
The four men had their own unique characteristics.
On Wang Lu’s right stood an old man and a young lad who looked somewhat similar, probably a grandfather and grandson.
The old man had a heavy expression with no emotion on his face, occasionally making phlegm noises from his throat.
The young lad looked young, but his expression was as mature as the elderly, with a bit of an old-fashioned demeanor.
On the other side stood two men with completely opposite builds.
One was extremely fat, probably around three hundred pounds, with a very sleazy look when he smiled.
Beside the fat man stood a skinny guy, short in stature, looking like a monkey, his eyes darting around, looking untrustworthy.
The middle-aged fat man subtly nudged his elbow at the thinner man next to him, motioning him to look at Bai Xiqin.
The monkey-like thin man didn’t even need the fat man’s prompt; his gaze was already fixed on Bai Xiqin.
Their safety base was the Ming City Safety Base, which housed around a thousand people in total, located in an abandoned school.
It was nothing compared to the Yunhua Safety Base.
Among the thousand people, six or seven hundred were men.
Men had more strength and found it easier to survive against zombies.
Out of the remaining three to four hundred, subtracting the old and weak, the sick, or women with strong superpowers, there were less than a hundred girls who looked decent.
In such an environment, few girls remained clean.
They either made themselves look dirty on purpose or dressed like women of the night.
In general, it was their first time seeing such a beautiful girl like Bai Xiqin in this era.
The tight jeans highlighted her long, slender legs.
Her skin, untainted by makeup, was as delicate as a baby’s.
A simple white T-shirt gave off an air of cleanliness and extraordinary temperament.
She was nothing like those girls in the safety base who were worth one or two packs of instant noodles.
"Wang Lu, you had friends before! Why don’t you bring them into our safety base? Our base is so safe; we can definitely protect your friends!"
While talking, the Skinny Monkey’s eyes fixated on Bai Xiqin’s arms, unconsciously wiping the corner of his mouth at the sight of her fair arms.
What a beautiful girl!
It’s been so long since he’d seen one.
The Skinny Monkey didn’t notice Leng Yebai’s, Zhang Yiming’s, and Bai Anhai’s dark expressions.
"They’re very capable, so it’s best not to worry about them, Skinny Monkey."
Wang Lu immediately noticed the expression on the Skinny Monkey’s face and directly positioned himself in front of the monkey, frowning deeply.
