"That day’s situation, I always remember it vividly; he descended from the sky, and the earth shook, mountains quivered..."

As he spoke, Mao Ping became increasingly excited.

Until finally, after Mao Ping finished the last word, he wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth and revealed a smile as if to say, that’s exactly how it was.

Zhou Peng blinked and said, "Mr. Mao, are you sure you’re not describing the plot of a fantasy novel?"

"No, every word is true, and I even toned it down to make it more realistic."

Mao Ping knew it was definitely hard for others to believe without seeing it with their own eyes, but the fact was just as he had said, without a hint of falsehood.

Zhou Peng looked at the man, and Mao Ping nodded very confidently, as if to say, really, we don’t deceive our own people.

After a long while.

Under Mao Ping’s guidance, Zhou Peng did become familiar with the situation at the Xiangshan Sanctuary, the key being that he had shown himself to be particularly friendly and generous.

Zhou Peng didn’t stay much longer, knowing when to leave on a good note, preparing for his next visit.

He said goodbye and returned to his place.

After Zhou Peng left.

Mao Ping said in a deep voice, "Tan Qing, do you think he deserves our trust?"

Tan Qing shook his head and said, "Unless he has met Lin Fan, I won’t trust any Awakener from outside. I don’t have the eyes that can see into people’s hearts. As long as they don’t harbor ill intentions towards us, just let them be."

"Hmm, indeed, excessive enthusiasm can be fake; the other party managed very well, knowing when to stop. This is someone experienced," Mao Ping commented.

He and Tan Qing were on the same page.

They never concealed the existence of Lin Fan. In fact, they even spoke of his heroics, especially Lin Fan’s nature of detesting evil. Carefully observing Zhou Peng’s expressions when they talked about taking down evildoers among the survivors.

They didn’t notice anything wrong.

But is it really alright just because there seems to be no issue?

This won’t do.

They still need Lin Fan to see for himself.

...

Zhou Peng didn’t return to the shelter but went to where the Corpse God resided. In this city, not a single living survivor was left. The Corpse God’s power was to see through the eyes of other zombies, to see different scenes.

He reported the situation of Lin Fan in the Salt City to the Corpse God.

An existence like this had already become a very strong Awakener, even beyond expectations.

As he relayed this information.

He could distinctly feel the Corpse God’s emotions undergoing intense fluctuations.

Zhou Peng stayed put, cautiously peering into the darkness and startlingly noticed the Corpse God, as if opening its eyes, with dense, flickering red lights like eyes.

There were sounds of movement.

Sounds of a liquid being poured out.

He was very curious about what was happening, but he didn’t dare to find out.

Then.

Footsteps came from the darkness.

Zhou Peng’s eyes widened in shock as he stared at the figure that appeared before him.

Wang Fei...

No, this couldn’t be Wang Fei; it was just an entity created by the Corpse God with Wang Fei’s face, its body oozing a wet, sticky fluid.

The zombie Wang Fei, seemingly controlled by the Corpse God, received its directive and hurriedly jumped out of a building’s window. Zhou Peng approached the window and saw the zombie Wang Fei get into a car and drive away.

"It... it can drive?"

Zhou Peng had never imagined a zombie could drive and was immediately excited. The Corpse God was truly remarkable, creating such an impressive zombie effortlessly.

...

Sunshine District.

Lin Fan was using a radio to communicate with the people from Xiangshan Base.

Tan Qing was just telling Lin Fan about today’s encounters.

"There’s another shelter in Salt City. That Zhou Peng is also a disguised Awakener. His ability is impressive, but you all should still be careful. I haven’t met him, and if I could, I would know the specifics."

Lin Fan was happy to hear that a few survivors had been saved on the Xiangshan side.

Tan Qing said, "Yeah, we know. The only thing that made me suspicious was that the zombies in Salt City hadn’t been cleaned up. Although he has the power of Disguise, he implies there’s a group of survivors living there, which is somewhat dangerous. We’ve invited him to bring his people to Xiangshan, but he declined."

Lin Fan spoke softly, "Maintaining skepticism is normal. Whether people want to cooperate or not is their choice, and it’s not good to force them."

Tan Qing said, "Mr. Lin, I’ve been thinking about something. You’ve been spreading the ’Zombie Album,’ hoping that the survivors who see it can survive. Many who get the album want to come to Sunshine Shelter, but some are far away. Even with vehicles, it’s a difficult task for them. Have you thought about finding more satellite phones to provide them with a means of communication?"

Hearing this suggestion.

Lin Fan had an epiphany.

"You’re right, that’s a good idea."

He agreed with what Tan Qing said.

Indeed, many survivors who get the ’Zombie Album’ tend to think about heading to Salt City, but given their own abilities, if they don’t encounter zombies, it’s okay. But if they do meet zombies, it’s mostly very difficult for them.

Especially now, as many zombies are evolving.

For ordinary people, just one Evolutionary Zombie could be a real hassle.

On the other end of the radio, Tan Qing’s face broke into a smile, happy that his suggestion had been accepted.

It was like receiving praise from a teacher.
