Chapter 1312: Chapter 1307: Liar
"I’ll just wait here for your Mayor to wake up, but there will be a lot of fighting here soon, you’d better be prepared," Tang Ye said nonchalantly. Perhaps the people from City of Bright Moon tend to complicate things subconsciously, but his own thoughts were quite simple. It was his conversation with Su Sigui that piqued his curiosity. Helping City of Bright Moon was part of it, and wanting to learn more was another part.
Tang Ye’s words left the members of City of Bright Moon around him stunned, unable to comprehend his actions. Waiting here for Su Sigui to awake was indeed not a good choice. They could have moved Su Sigui to a safer place to wait, and even though Changyuan City was nearly a hundred kilometers from Cloud Gorge Base, it wouldn’t take the Level 8 New Humans more than three minutes to arrive due to their speed.
However, since they had given Tang Ye the decision-making power, whatever he chose to do was none of their concern. They just needed to wait for Su Sigui’s awakening while casually assisting the people from Northern Empire in accomplishing Tang Ye’s objectives.
The reason Tang Ye decided to wait here for Su Sigui’s awakening was actually very simple—he was waiting for Cloud Gorge Base to send those Level 8 New Humans as easy targets. Not to mention the hundreds of Level 8 Powerhouses around him, even his own "avatar", though only an avatar, easily exhibited power beyond Level 8.
He was not afraid of the so-called largest Sanctuary City in the world. In the face of absolute firepower, it wasn’t fear that ruled him, but he who ruled over fear!
There was nothing much to say, and soon, the people from City of Bright Moon began to build a temporary camp with the zombies and humans from Northern Empire. After a short interaction with those zombies living in human disguises, they realized that zombies were not absolutely bloodthirsty. They could communicate like humans and live life similar to human society.
The difference was, zombie society was much more twisted compared to human society, requiring stronger beings to dominate them. Those stronger beings acted like the laws in human society, restricting the zombies’ frenzied actions.
And when talking about their Heavenly Khan, Li Henian, there wasn’t a single power that could defeat him—he was their law, the scale that judged right from wrong.
Without stronger beings to check and balance, the society formed by zombies would only be crueler and more brutally bloody than human society!
Slowly, the people from City of Bright Moon let down their innate guards against zombies, becoming accustomed and not finding it as strange anymore. It was a very peculiar feeling.
It quickly came to the next day, and by evening, Tang Ye was disappointed that the high-levels from Cloud Gorge Base weren’t as foolish as he imagined. After more than thirty hours, Cloud Gorge Base had not sent any powerhouses here, but a drone had continuously hovered over them, monitoring their movements.
It seemed they had tacitly accepted Tang Ye’s presence, but Tang Ye did nothing to down those annoying drones, naturally letting them observe him and his group until today at noon. He finally got irritated waiting for Cloud Gorge Base to send powerhouses, and in a bout of anger, ordered all drones to be shot down. Realizing Tang Ye’s threat, although they were still sending drones to scout, they no longer did so as blatantly as before, becoming more cautious—a change that Tang Ye tolerated without interfering with the drones anymore. Too many drones emitting "whirring" sounds were annoying, and such patience was showing no results.
Cloud Gorge Base’s two major superpowers also stopped chasing the Level 8 New Humans from City of Bright Moon, a point which puzzled the people from City of Bright Moon, but on deeper reflection, it seemed Cloud Gorge Base had no other choice.
On this side, hundreds of powerhouses were openly visible, and a simple drone reconnaissance could quickly detect them. Provoking them would lead to an unprecedented great battle, and once both sides’ Level 8 New Humans were fully mobilized, ignoring who would win, the moment of dividing victory and defeat would spell the end of Cloud Gorge Base.
Perhaps that was why the officials refrained from rash actions.
It was almost nine o’clock in the evening when Su Sigui finally started waking up slowly. Opening her eyes, she saw a grassland giant sitting not far from her, idly playing cards. Seeing them, she instinctively reached for her waist but felt nothing except a thin blanket.
Her thoughts regained clarity, and Su Sigui quickly confirmed in her mind that the several grassland giants were people from Northern Empire, which slightly relieved her.
"Mayor, you’re awake," a familiar voice spoke next to her, a woman’s voice.
"Qiuyue?" The woman’s face appeared before Su Sigui, making her pause.
"You didn’t leave Changyuan City?"
"No, Northern Empire’s people rescued us, and after receiving Yan Xing’s alert, we turned back."
"Everyone?" Su Sigui asked.
"Yes, everyone’s back, all here, but..."
"But what?"
"Xi Xiang is dead."
Su Sigui fell silent for a moment, and soon, other members from City of Bright Moon arrived in the room where Su Sigui had awakened. Originally twenty-two, they were now twenty-one.
Not far away, the three grassland giants gathered around a rotten piece of wood, playing cards, noticed Su Sigui waking up, and one of them instantly shuffled the cards saying, "F*ck it, finally awake, I’m done playing."
"F*ck! Every time you’re about to lose, you quit playing. You’ve got a f*cking minor four and three fives left in your hand; here’s a bomb, you just played four Ks, and here’s a pair of kings, flipping three times in total, Jiema and I owe eighty Yajin each. Hand it over!"
One of the giants roared instantly, his voice booming like a bell, making ears tingle.
"F*ck you, I don’t have that much on me!"
Su Sigui eyed the three card-playing giants curiously, their roaring vastly out of place amidst the humans and zombies.
"Mayor, don’t mind them, it’s happened several times," said Yan Xing from beside her. The man who refused to play when losing was called Tu-E, a Level 8, who had also played "Fight the Landlord" against his opponent, always finding excuses not to pay up each time he couldn’t play his cards.
He was simply a sore loser!
Seeing this unfold repeatedly on a zombie had always felt strange, but they had gotten used to it.
Following Yan Xing’s words, the giant known as Tu-E approached Su Sigui, seemingly concerned as he asked, "How are you feeling, better now?"
Su Sigui felt something was off but politely nodded, "I’ve mostly recovered."
"That’s good. Uh, do you have any Yajin on you? You shouldn’t be short of it, right? Could you lend me five hundred?"
