Chapter 674: Chapter 173: I’m Not a Fool, I Will Coax You_5

"Alright."

Lin Fan leaped into the air and bounded towards the distance. When he hit flat ground, he ran with a speed that the naked eye couldn’t catch.

Mao Ping watched Lin Fan’s receding figure and sighed, "Thank goodness Mr. Lin met Zhou Peng, otherwise we might have been kept in the dark indefinitely."

Tan Qing said, "Indeed, although I’ve always been suspicious of them, their actions were above reproach, and I couldn’t spot any flaws."

Mao Ping said, "But what exactly is Zhou Peng’s purpose? We have a total of eleven Awakeners here, and we can communicate with Mr. Lin. If a zombie tide were to attack, we could also notify Mr. Lin in a short time."

Tan Qing pondered, "When I have nothing else to do, I look through the ’Zombie Album’. It clearly records one thing: when zombies consume the flesh and blood of Awakeners, they evolve. I suspect that the intelligent zombie wants to use Zhou Peng to deceive us Awakeners and feed us to that mysterious zombie."

The accuracy of Tan Qing’s conjecture couldn’t be described as spot on; it was exactly right.

Salt City.

Lin Fan stood on the rooftop of a building, his gaze fixed on the surroundings. The situation in Salt City was much worse than he had expected—this was the true face of a city in the post-apocalypse.

Zombies were everywhere.

At a glance, this was a city of zombies.

"An intelligent zombie that can manipulate humans is probably the most terrifying existence I’ve encountered among zombies. To find you here is like looking for a needle in a haystack," he muttered to himself.

"And where exactly is that base?"

He wanted to find it, but unfortunately... Amidst the ’heh heh’ sounds of interference, there were too many noises, and he didn’t have the luxury of time to waste here. What followed was transporting the survivors from Xiangshan Base to the Sunshine Shelter in Huang City.

It was time for the development of the region to truly begin.

At that moment.

In a dark corner of a certain building, a mass of flesh burst through the floor and moved its body to hide underground. It was using Zhou Peng’s eyes to observe the situation above.

Humans are not to be trusted.

To it, Zhou Peng was unimportant, merely an expendable pawn in its hand.

"Pathetic humans."

Gradually, the flesh completely concealed itself underground, silent and still, even without making the slightest noise. However, it continued to watch Lin Fan through the eyes of the city’s zombies.

Suddenly.

In front of a zombie under the control of the Corpse God, Lin Fan suddenly appeared.

"So you are the mysterious zombie controlling Zhou Peng. You have been observing me without alerting the other zombies. Can you tell me where you are? I think we could have a chat," he said.

"The relationship between humans and zombies could be eased a little, there’s no need to be so aggressive," Lin Fan continued.

Lin Fan was no fool. He hoped to use his sincere words to move the zombie so they could meet, and thus nip the danger in the bud. Although such a method was somewhat sneaky, dealing with the danger as soon as possible was worth it.

They were far apart, but the Corpse God could transmit everything it heard through the controlled zombie to itself.

The Corpse God did not respond and severed the connection with that zombie. At this moment, it would not expose itself.

Lin Fan tossed aside the ordinary zombie he was holding, shook his head, and turned to leave.

Back at Xiangshan.

He told Tan Qing and the others to start packing their things and then carried the bus away.

Huang City, Sunshine Shelter.

"Let me go, let me go."

It was only upon arriving here that Wei Hu began to struggle and beg for mercy. His face was swollen from the beating he had received from Gao Bo, and the other survivors had similarly swollen faces.

"So this is the Sunshine Shelter mentioned in the album," said Little Tao, turning around on the spot, his eyes shining with vigor. It was the joy of arriving at the Land of Hope, and the other followers felt the same.

Some people hugged each other and wept.

Some knelt on the ground, kissing the earth.

Some ran around wildly as if greeting a new dawn.

It all seemed quite exaggerated.

But in reality, it was not exaggerated at all; these were very normal reactions. When people are enveloped by despair for a long time, they become completely numb. That murky, dim look in their eyes is the evidence.

And when they arrive at the Land of Hope, the contrast of surviving a disaster will immediately burst forth.

Therefore, doing some strange actions is quite normal.

As Lin Fan was thinking about these things.

The survivors came up to him, their eyes filled with excitement, looking at him fervently.

"Thank you."

"We thought we had no hope left. Thank you for bringing us here, thank you," they said.

To them, Lin Fan was like a deity. Many of those who had suffered long in the apocalypse and were eventually rescued by him showed their gratitude.

Lin Fan faced them with a smile, "Don’t mention it, just live a good life. Here you can have the life you want, with no one oppressing you, no one bullying you."

Not far away.

Guan Hao, A Hai, Wang Kai, Xu Zeyang, and Wen Jie were gathered together discussing matters. As Lin Fan returned, they all looked over.

Guan Hao said, "In their hearts, my brother is like a god. Being able to save people at this time, truthfully, I am very confident about the future."

A Hai said, "This scene feels familiar. I was also saved by Brother Lin from despair, like he appeared before me riding on a cloud."
