Chapter 636: 343 Sinister Scheme_2

The two of them sang in unison and effectively dispelled many doubts in people’s hearts. However, Corpse Hunters cherished their lives. Although they believed the mission should be safe, they were not keen on taking the lead, so eventually, aside from the members of the White Wolf Mercenary Corps and the Qiankun Mercenary Corps, more than half of the remaining scattered hunters chose to cancel the mission.

Those who did not cancel, for the most part, were confident in their own abilities to survive and did not have family burdens.

Previously, Bai Zhengyi had provided Zhao Qiankun with an excuse. So, seeing that Fang Yuxin still did not want to give up, he said, "Miss Fang, what do you think about Commander Bai’s suggestion just now? It’s better for a Second-level Wood Element Superpower User like you to not take the lead and instead follow the troops behind."

He had secretly loved Fang Yuxin for too long, and now that he finally had a chance to be with her, he couldn’t bear to watch her march to her death!

However, Fang Yuxin showed no appreciation for his consideration. With a faint smile, she said, "There’s no need. I’m quite confident in my abilities. Moreover, since Wood Element Superpower Users enjoy better benefits, it’s only natural that we make more contributions."

Zhao Qiankun, annoyed that Fang Yuxin didn’t know how to seize a good opportunity, gave her a cold look and stopped trying to persuade her.

Bai Zhengyi, seeing that he had finally given up, quickly suggested they depart to avoid dragging things out too long and complicating matters further. With his urging, Fang Yuxin and others easily left the Beishi Base, following the large troop heading towards Luyun County.

Bai Ye and Fang Yuxin, of course, did not really intend to attack Luyun County for Zhao Qiankun and Bai Zhengyi, and soon after leaving the base gate, Bai Zhengli found an excuse to stop everyone under the guise of "discussing tactics," which was actually to plan their escape.

The place they stopped was located between Beishi Base and Luyun County, less than two thousand meters from Luyun County, which was relatively close. However, how to leave was another matter that required careful thought.

Previously, the words of Zhao Qiankun and Bai Zhengyi were clearly warning them; someone was watching behind them, and they couldn’t try any tricks! But anyone who could live would not choose to die, and what Zhao Qiankun and Bai Zhengyi did this time was really too much!

After stopping, they arranged for some to stand guard, and Bai Zhengli gathered the leaders of the other small teams for a meeting. Since the matter hadn’t blown up yet, it was unclear what the other leaders thought. Bai Zhengli did not dare to speak openly but instead seriously asked for everyone’s opinions.

During the meeting, Fang Yuxin was not present but covertly released her Spiritual Sense to guard against any surrounding movement. Just then, members of the Qiankun Mercenary Team suddenly took out several sprayers and began spraying the crowd.

"What’s going on?"

"What is this stuff?"

"What are you spraying?"

The others were puzzled and began to discuss it amongst themselves. Someone from the Qiankun Mercenary Corps explained, "This is a new spray developed by our Qiankun Research Institute. It not only masks the scent of living beings but also slows the zombies’ reactions. Everyone, quickly gather together. Once we’re sprayed, we can head to Luyun County to kill zombies!"

His voice was quite loud, so Fang Yuxin heard it. Upon hearing this, a suspicion arose in her heart. This mission was clearly a death trap set by Bai Zhengyi and Zhao Qiankun to eliminate rivals. How could Zhao Qiankun possibly be so kind?

The others, however, did not think this way. Upon hearing about the effects of the spray, they got off the vehicles one after another, gathering around those from the Qiankun Mercenary Team to have the spray applied to them.

Seeing this, Fang Yuxin quickly called out, "Wait! Everyone, don’t rush. Let’s verify the effectiveness of the spray first."

Upon her speaking out, some began to hesitate. But those from the Qiankun Mercenary Team were displeased. They had joined the Qiankun Mercenary Team and naturally had some respect for Zhao Qiankun. However, since their leaders were not genuinely loyal to Zhao Qiankun, it was their bad luck to have been chosen for this deadly mission.

Zhao Qiankun’s previous attempts to persuade Fang Yuxin not to come—and her stubborn refusals—had already made these men resent her. Now, Fang Yuxin’s words heightened their dislike for her.

Immediately, someone said, "Miss Fang, what do you mean by that? These sprays were meticulously developed by the researchers at our Qiankun Mercenary Corps for this mission. They worked overnight to produce so much spray to make the mission smoother. What’s there to check? Aren’t you being too cautious?"

Fang Yuxin glanced at him, silently cursed "fool" in her heart, and then asked, "Tell me, the people you brought, are they the elite of the Qiankun Mercenary Group? Are your leaders the close confidants of Commander Zhao?"

The man looked uncertain, unable to understand why Fang Yuxin would ask this. However, someone by his side, who was not stupid, caught on and looked at Fang Yuxin, asking, "Miss Fang, what do you mean by that? Don’t you trust Commander Zhao?"

Fang Yuxin glanced over and, seeing that others were all looking at her in surprise, continued, "You all heard it too. Both Commander Zhao and Commander Bai said that this mission is just a tentative attack. So, I want to ask you, if it’s just for testing, why not send a well-armed elite team to greatly reduce the casualties? Instead, why send you out? You must have received this kind of spray long ago, right? Then why not spray it on yourself before departure, but instead use it halfway through? Don’t you have any doubts?"

Immediately, some were swayed, especially those who had the spray applied to them. They unconsciously lifted their arms and suspiciously sniffed the scent.

Just then, a sharp howl suddenly came from a distance, and immediately, someone shrieked, "It’s a Zombie Group! The zombies are coming!" (To be continued.
