Chapter 193: Chapter 191: Blocking Tang Ye’s Retreat_1

Looking back, Tang Ye’s previously furious expression paused and he blinked in surprise. He glanced around, unable to fathom where Old Wang had disappeared to. Calculating the distance he’d walked, it was only three or four steps, the time it took extremely brief. Behind Old Wang, there were no hiding places. There was an alley over ten meters away earlier, but it was impossible for a regular person to run there in such a short time.

In the time it took for Tang Ye to react, the crowd of zombies passed by his side, ignoring the other three people with him. Even so, they snarled at Tang Ye, their eyes filled with bloodlust as they gazed at Chen Chaoyang and his companions.

However, due to the presence of the high-level zombie Tang Ye, they dared not snatch prey out of his jaws.

Tang Ye no longer cared how Old Wang had disappeared. After all, Yindan Base was already on the brink of collapse. Before long, this place would be overrun by zombies. Whether Old Wang had escaped or was hiding somewhere, he was destined to die sooner or later. There was no need for Tang Ye to take matters into his own hands.

As for Old Wang’s words, Tang Ye quickly dismissed them, casting them aside as if they were idle chatter.

"We should leave here, all of you, hurry up."

"Alright." The three nodded and quickened their pace alongside Tang Ye, heading towards the training grounds.

Nannan laughed loudly atop Li Xiaoyan, waving her small arms wildly at the nearing zombies as if they were her friends, giggling at their terrifying faces.

Once they left the area, the surrounding buildings echoed with cries of despair, gunfire, and the excited roars of zombies.

...

"Have they sent anyone for us yet?"

"Miss, a helicopter has been dispatched to pick us up. It’ll be here in about twenty minutes. We’ve already sent them our coordinates."

"Good."

Wen Yixian nodded, standing on the rooftop of the government building. She could see a breach in the zombie barrier in the distance at Yindan Base. Although she couldn’t see the zombies, she could picture them wreaking havoc in the base.

Boom!

Suddenly, her eyes seemed to flash with something - a streak of blue light piercing the sky, then plummeting down, sweeping across the ground. The continuous explosion sounds were deafening!

The sounds of gunshots and zombie roars were everywhere, filling the air with smoke. The war on the ground seemed to set the sky on fire, painting a horrific picture of the Apocalypse for everyone at the base!

Once the zombies broke through the barriers, they spread quickly throughout the base, occupying half of the Yindan Base, which covered over ten kilometers. All of this was painfully familiar from the early days of the Apocalypse, but this time was different.

Although the survivors living in the base had gained some experience and knew to hide in their homes, the wave of zombies was not filled with regular ones. But rather, it included many evolved zombies. By now, aside from the two Level 3 zombies that had already been killed, there were four Level 2 zombies in the base!

Moreover, there was still one nearly invincible Level 3 zombie present!

Evolved zombies had a much stronger sense of smell compared to regular zombies, and people hiding in their homes couldn’t hide from them.

The distant training ground was deserted, with only scattered equipment on the ground. The zombies hadn’t arrived yet. Wen Yixian and Ai Li, standing at such a high place, were probably not noticeable to the zombies.

So they weren’t in a hurry. Ai Li looked at the distant scene with a smile on his face while Wen Yixian was filled with sorrow. The lives of hundreds of thousands of people at the Yindan Base were under threat, and it would be strange if she was not affected.

However, she also had many doubts. The zombie attack was mysterious. Each zombie seemed controlled by someone making them use their kind as shields. This was unheard of before. And then there was that Level 3 zombie, who surprisingly knew how to throw other zombies into the base.

Zombies couldn’t possibly think that flexibly, leading her to suspect that the wave of zombies was being controlled by a person or intelligent zombie.

If it was a person, that would be tolerable. But if it was an intelligent zombie, that would be truly horrifying.

Humans were the representatives of intellectual species and dominated the world through their intelligence. As part of humanity and its civilization, Wen Yixian would not allow other intelligent entities to emerge!

None would want to share their resources with anybody else!

As she was deep in thought, Wen Yixian seemed to notice something. She picked up a telescope and looked over, her eyes narrowing in annoyance when she saw Tang Ye and his group. At the same time, she felt indignant!

This guy didn’t even show his face when the zombies attacked the base. He was afraid that the soldiers would arrest him and his group!

She took a brief glance at Li Xiaoyan, who was carrying Nannan, but couldn’t figure out the situation due to the close distance, so she chose not to overthink it.

She heard two helicopters of different models approaching the training grounds. Seeing that Tang Ye was heading towards the helicopter, Wen Yixian was almost livid!

This guy was hiding like a turtle during the zombie attack, while other New Humans were out fighting. And as a Level 2 New Human, he chose not to engage but to attempt a cowardly escape in the helicopter!

"No way!" Wen Yixian was irate and ordered Ai Li, "Give me the rocket launcher. Tang Ye has come out, and is trying to leave. I will not let him succeed!"

"Yes!"

Ai Li, who could only see small dots representing Tang Ye’s group due to the distance, did not look further. He swiftly opened the case he was carrying and assembled a small rocket launcher with practiced efficiency before respectfully handing it to Wen Yixian.

She reached for it, engaged the support, and pulled the operating trigger, then took a fist-sized projectile from Ai Li’s hand and inserted it into the revealed cavity.

With a "click" and the projectile secured, Wen Yixian flipped up the gunsight on the side and took aim at Tang Ye, one eye closed.

Tang Ye and his group hadn’t noticed anything yet and continued toward a red civilian helicopter that was nearby.

But before they could get close, Tang Ye suddenly stopped, his arms barring the three people beside him. The next second, a shell whistled past and crashed into the red helicopter.

Boom!

The helicopter instantly exploded into pieces. The debris scattered in all directions. Tang Ye subconsciously raised his hand to cover his eyes, turning to look toward the direction from which the shell had come.

Wen Yixian quickly pulled the pressure lever on her launcher, a puff of smoke issued from within. She took another projectile from Ai Li’s hand and swiftly loaded it into the rocket launcher. Aiming at another military helicopter, she fired without hesitation.

She intended to cut off Tang Ye’s retreat!
