The Zhou family villa has three floors. Luo Xiao and Dai Qingyun chose the third floor, leaving the first floor for Liu Yunjie and Shen Yan. Tantai Yan went directly to the second floor quietly.
The second floor is the master bedroom, which has a strong defensive force. If the Zhou family hadn't let him in and out many times in order to win over him, he wouldn't have been able to easily figure out the Zhou family's situation. He breathed carefully and followed his memory around various obstacles.
"Who are you!" Just as the master bedroom door was about to open, a sharp shout suddenly came from the first floor. Tantai Yan didn't have time to continue what he was doing, so he turned around and jumped to the first floor by stepping on the railing.
At this time, the first floor was brightly lit, and Liu Yunjie and Shen Ke were besieged from both sides by Zhou Zilin and others.
"Boss!" When Tantai Yan quickly ran to the two of them and activated his mental powers, Liu Yunjie was okay, but Shen Yan's body was already covered in scars.
"It's you!" Zhou Zilin's wood power was already at the fourth level, and his third-level spiritual power had no effect on him. When he saw that it was Tantai Banquet, he was slightly surprised and only felt angry and offended at his ignorance. Happy, but he was used to pretending, and he didn't see anything unusual on the surface. Instead, he was polite, "I wonder why Captain Tantai visited late at night? If there are any difficulties, my Zhou family will not stand idly by."
"You're welcome, Mr. Zhou." Tantai Yan, who had blocked the fatal blow for Liu Yunjie and Shen Yan, squinted his eyes, his eyes filled with a cold light, "Our team was thanks to Mr. Zhou's care some time ago. As soon as Ah Xiao recovers, I can’t wait to take him to the door to say thank you.”
"Where, it should be." Zhou Zilin said and suddenly raised his hand, and a vine as thick as a wrist struck towards Tantai Banquet like lightning.
Tantai Yan was on guard for a long time, and gave way to Shen Yan and Liu Yunjie, but a transparent ice blade condensed in his hand and slashed at the vines.
The vines trembled for a while, and the entire branch was divided into two. The upper part withered at a speed visible to the naked eye, but the roots grew again at a faster speed.
"It seems that we have all underestimated you!" Seeing that Tantai Yan easily dodged his killing move, Zhou Zilin also knew that his power level was no longer lower than his own, and was not at all the third level that everyone thought, "Xiao Li, Xiao Zhang, protect the professor, I will kill the others, leaving no one behind!"
His attitude became serious, and there was a hint of excitement in his expression about meeting his opponent. Because of his excitement, the vines in his hands also changed from a pleasant green to a grayish dark brown, covered with sticky and disgusting substances. The corrosive juice fell on the ground to form deep and shallow pits.
"Boss, Master Zhou, leave it to me." Luo Xiao happened to come down from the third floor, and when he saw Zhou Zilin, the air around him started to flow. His superpower was originally only at the third level, but this time he fought against the virus and was able to reach the fourth level, which is exactly the same level as Zhou Zilin. As long as you're careful, you shouldn't have much of a problem.
Tantai Yan took a step back after hearing this. He knew what Luo Xiao was thinking. If he was being plotted against, he would also want to take revenge with his own hands.
He made room for the two of them, and stopped Zhou Li, who was inseparable from Zhou Zilin. As for the others, who were not of sufficient level, they were trapped in the illusion created by their mental powers and had no response to Zhou Zilin's orders.
The four of them fought together, and Dai Qingyun, who came down one step after Luo Xiao, ignored the fighting people and directly helped Shen Yan up and began to heal his injuries.
The weather is freezing in winter, and the sky in the morning slowly turns gray and fish-belly white.
In an alley not far from Zhou's house, Luo Yang was sitting in the driver's seat. His body was lean and his clear eyes were quietly and wisely staring at the interconnected alleyways not far away. These lanes are on the edge of Area C and the trading area. On weekdays, except for the hungry and cold beggars at the base who have nowhere to go, no living things can be found at all.
"Yangyang, it's daylight, why don't your brother and boss come out? Has something happened?" Anxi, who was dressed casually and casually, stared at the exit of the alley without blinking, her tone full of anxiety and worry.
They have been waiting here for two hours. From the darkness until the sky turned white, no one came out.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry. You must know that the boss's superpower is the highest in the entire base. My brother is already at the fourth level. Even Qingyun and the others are at the third level. They will be fine." Luo Yang was also worried, but he just held the steering wheel tightly. He tightened his grip, his face looking as confident and shrewd as ever.
"But..." An Qian also knows the strength of Tantai Yan and the others, but sometimes care can lead to chaos, and it is inevitable that she will overthink it. But before she could finish her words, there was a burst of faster footsteps coming from the alley.
She was startled at first, then quickly stuck her head out of the car, looking expectantly at the entrance of the alley not far away with a pair of gentle, watery eyes.
"Here we come." Hu Zhongguo, who had been leaning on the car and watching the surroundings warily, suddenly stood up straight. He is here to attend the Tantai Banquet today, and also to protect Luo Yang, who has no supernatural powers, and Luo Qian, who is not strong in combat ability, so he will subconsciously start to take precautions if there is any trouble.
The sound of footsteps came closer and closer, and the originally blurry figure gradually became clearer in everyone's eyes.
"Boss!" Seeing that it was a Tantai banquet, Luo Yang couldn't wait to open the car door and get out of the car. His eyes first glanced around everyone, and finally fell on the unconscious Dai Qingyun.
Dai Qingyun is currently lying on Tantai Yan's back, his usually lively face as pale as paper: "Boss, what's wrong with Qingyun?"
"It's okay! It's just that my power was overdrawn and I fainted." Tantai Yan said as he carefully put Dai Qingyun in the car, revealing Liu Yunjie and Shen Yan in blood-clothed clothes behind them.
"What's going on? Why are you injured like this!" Luo Yang frowned. After a closer look, he discovered that although Liu Yunjie and Shen Ke were still standing, they were more seriously injured than Dai Qingyun. Especially Shen Ke, not only his shoulder The wounds on his body were deep enough to show the bones, and even his abdomen was severely slashed.
"I'm fine, it just looks serious." Shen Yan waved his hand to indicate that he was fine.
"Okay, let's put Zhou Ming and Zhou Zilin in the trunk first. It's not suitable to stay here for a long time!" Before anyone could speak again, Dai Qingyun was settling down for the Tantai Banquet and interrupted everyone who was talking, "Ayang, you and Brother Hu are going Qingyun will leave a car to your care."
"Okay." Luo Yang also knew the seriousness of the matter and nodded cautiously in agreement.
The group did not dare to stay where they were, so Tantai Yan drove the car himself, leaving the task of taking care of Liu Yunjie and Shen Ke to An Qian and Luo Xiao. Although Anxi does not have a healing power, her water power has some effect on wounds.
It was bright outside the car, and groups of small and large groups at the entrance of the base were going out to hunt zombies. Seeing that it was them, the staff on duty at the entrance came up to them with an attentive look on their faces: "Captain Luo, are you going out today?"
"Yes, the food reserves are almost gone. If we don't go out to find some supplies, we won't even be able to pay the rent." Luo Xiao, who was sitting in the passenger seat, half-lowered the window and greeted him with a smile.
He often visits the base and has more or less friendships with the base staff.
"No way." The staff member on duty smiled familiarly, obviously not believing Luo Xiao's words.
Luo Xiao didn't care. He only exchanged a few pleasantries and said goodbye. The staff nodded in a hurry and did not check. They pressed the button to open the door and made way out of the way in a flattering manner.
"Da Liu, you can do it! You even know Captain Luo!" When Luo Xiao drove some distance away, the man with sporadic light yellow hair at the end couldn't help but bump into the man who was talking to Luo Xiao.
The man pushed him away, the flattery in his eyes receded, and he became more helpless and complicated: "So what if we know each other! They are superpowers, how can they take ordinary people like us into consideration."
"...That's right." The man who was pushed away was stunned, and the joking expression on his face slowly turned into bitterness.
Before the end of the world, he and Da Liu were considered wealthy children. They would always be surrounded by people who cheered each other out every time they went out, making them enviable. However, in the end of the world, money was of no use at all. People like them had neither awakened powers nor any skills. I can only make ends meet under the protection of my parents. Not to mention living a lavish life, even the janitor job that I used to look down on has to be obtained through connections.
And if you can avoid offending others, try not to offend others. Just like just now, he and Da Liu clearly smelled the smell of blood, but pretended not to notice anything and let them go.
The car drove quickly along the bumpy road until it reached an uninhabited wasteland before suddenly stopping.
"Boss!" Seeing that Tantai Yan got out of the car, Ji Ruohai, who was waiting anxiously, hurriedly got out of the car. He had been waiting here for almost two hours. When he saw no one, he was ready to go back. "Boss, didn't we agree to meet at seven o'clock? It's almost nine o'clock."
"There was an accident. I originally just wanted to give the Zhou family a gift, but in the end, I brought them out directly." Tantai Yan ignored the incident lightly and only clicked on the trunk of the car, saying calmly.
Ji Ruohai twitched the corner of his mouth, not knowing what to say. The boss's tone is just like carrying two bags of garbage, but it's no wonder, the boss. The two fathers and sons of the Zhou family are not in charge of the base, but they want to cause trouble for the boss. Now they have ended up like this, they are asking for it, no wonder other people.
"Is everyone here?" After casually explaining the reason for being late, Tantai Yan's eyes fell on four or five off-road vehicles parked not far away.
Ji Ruohai nodded: "We are all here. Those who are unwilling to leave City H, I have sent a batch of supplies to everyone. All those who are willing to follow are here."
"That's good." The two of them said as they quickly jumped into the car and drove directly to the south. They had no idea that the H City base was in chaos because of the disappearance of the most powerful person.
Most of the Zhou family's superpowers were slaughtered, and the surviving superpowers were of low strength and could not suppress the team of superpowers at the base. They could only watch helplessly as many superpowers fought for power and interests, resulting in the true ability of the superpowers. The superpowers left, and in the end even the H City base, which was famous for the existence of the Tantai Banquet in the previous life, gradually declined, and was completely destroyed in a medium-sized zombie wave.
