Chapter 304: Chapter 110: It’s Really Not as Complicated as You Think_5

Lin Fan, Wang Kai, Zhou Ting, and Ah Hai were cleaning up the shop.

As the number of people increased,

the income increasingly lessened.

But Lin Fan didn’t feel any discontent at all; instead, he was very happy, because everyone was busy working, which meant that everyone was hopeful about the future.

"Doggy, what’s the matter?"

Lin Fan watched as Doggy approached him, biting his trouser leg, trying to drag him outside.

Doggy seemed almost enchanted, playing with Wang Kai when in a playful mood and seeking out Lin Fan when things got serious, as if knowing who really mattered.

Lin Fan followed Doggy outside.

Looking in that direction,

he saw someone waving at the fence, and upon closer inspection, it was Eagle, one of the group he had rescued that day.

In Sunshine District.

Eagle and his team looked at the iron gate and the walls, noticing their extraordinary quality; the slight shimmer could let anyone discern that they definitely had absorbed crystal energy.

"How did you guys come back, did something happen to Professor Xia?"

Old Master Wang was very curious. These four were supposed to be guarding Professor Xia, yet here they were without him; had something happened?

Eagle said, "No, Professor Xia has already reached the base. We came back to discuss something with Lin Fan."

Old Master Wang, perceptive as ever, said, "It’s about the crystal, right?"

Eagle smiled, "Old Master is really astute, exactly, we came for the crystal. After we escorted Professor Xia to the base, we developed two sets of power exoskeletons that absorbed the crystal energy, gaining strong capabilities. Ye Hong and I wore them and tried to kill a Powerful Zombie. Although we managed to kill it, the process was difficult. With our base’s current capability, it’s hard to obtain more crystals."

He spoke very straightforwardly.

Simply laying it all out there.

Without any concealment.

He knew Lin Fan in Sunshine District was important, with those eyes that seemed able to smile, capable of seeing through one’s soul.

Old Master Wang sighed and then looked towards Lin Fan, "Xiao Fan, you talk to them."

"Sure." Lin Fan smiled, "Let’s sit over there and talk slowly, and have some tea. You must be thirsty after coming all this way."

Just as he was about to get up.

Ah Hai said, "Big brother, I’ll get it."

"Thanks," Lin Fan said.

Eagle said, "Originally, Professor Xia wanted to come, but the journey is long and we feared dangers, so he stayed at the base, and the four of us came instead."

Lin Fan said, "I understand, it’s indeed dangerous. Zombies are especially numerous now, and many have even evolved. They lack reason, their favorite thing is to harm others."

Thinking about that elderly man, he should have been enjoying his twilight years, but instead, he faced such circumstances.

Old Master Zhou had told him that Professor Xia was a respectable man.

Eagle said, "Our base is somewhat remote, with few zombies around, making it difficult to find Evolutionary Zombies. So we thought of this place, hoping to get some help with crystal-enhanced equipment to fight the zombies."

"We know this request is excessive, but..."

He hadn’t finished speaking.

When Lin Fan interrupted, "No, your request isn’t excessive at all. I understand what you need them for and the purpose of your efforts. I’m willing to help you kill the Evolutionary Zombies and obtain the crystals."

Eagle gaped, surprised that his counterpart agreed so readily without any hesitation.

"Why don’t you make some demands?"

That was his thought, as cooperation between people should benefit both sides.

Lin Fan looked at Eagle, smiling gently, "Why should I make demands? The peace we once enjoyed was because you all trained hard to protect our country, letting me sit in an air-conditioned office, returning home happily, and sleeping in my bed without fear."

"Now that the apocalypse has arrived, you’re still striving to strengthen yourselves and protect everyone. Being able to help you is an honor for me."

He had missed many things being born when he was.

Watching those old disaster documentaries.

Profoundly impacted.

He vaguely remembered a very young soldier in the documentaries, his youthful face weathered by hardships, resolutely proclaiming,

’Wearing this glorious uniform, life no longer belongs to oneself, but to the nation, the people.’

And at that time, he had been at home eating tomato over rice, watching the documentary on his computer, the food in his hands felt somewhat...

Suddenly,

Everyone around looked at Lin Fan.

They knew Lin Fan was decent, but they didn’t expect him to say something like that.

Eagle suddenly stood up, the other three did the same, looking at Lin Fan with gratitude; truly, they had never expected such an outcome.

The apocalypse had arrived, order had disintegrated, and as for those who survived, their fates were imaginable.

Like those survivors who knew they were struggling for the future yet were still ridiculed, ’Go home, get some sleep, do you really think you stand a chance?’

Do you really stand a chance?

Maybe not.

But they wouldn’t give up, because it was their mission and responsibility.

Lin Fan said, "You rest here for a while, I’ll handle the rest."

Eagle nodded honestly, even if he had reached the base, he still wasn’t overly confident about the future, starting with the issue of their numbers, as there were simply too few capable of combat.
