Chapter 167 Zombie Siege
As soon as Yu Yao returned to the base, she went straight to the base's service hall to hand over her mission.
They also requested the return of the agreement signed between Xu Zhiwu and the base at that time.
The staff there had clearly received the task, but did not immediately hand over the agreement to Yu Yao.
Instead, they applied to contact their superiors.
A short while later, two men in their thirties entered the service hall.
The top two leaders of the base.
Chu Lin and Jin Heyan.
Seeing Yu Yao sitting on the sofa, getting impatient, they made only one request.
“Miss Yu, I can certainly give you the agreement with Xu Zhiwu and the others, but we have one more request.” The speaker was Chu Lin!
Yu Yao directly refused, saying, "You don't need to say anything, I refuse."
Chu Lin: "..."
Jin Heyan said helplessly, "Does Miss Yu look down on our Jincheng base that much? As long as you are willing to stay, you can ask for crystal cores, supplies, points, accommodation, and even servants."
Yu Yao still refused: "I won't stay."
Jin Heyan's brows furrowed almost imperceptibly for a moment.
"Miss Yu, do you really look down on our little base so much...?"
Yu Yao glanced at him but offered no explanation.
"You can think whatever you want, but now, may I take Xu Zhiwu's agreement?"
Seeing her determination, Chu Lin changed his strategy.
“Miss Yu, our base has too few high-level ability users. Xu Zhiwu is already a pillar of the base. If he leaves, our base will suffer a serious loss. So, could you…”
Yu Yao narrowed her eyes dangerously.
Upon seeing this, Chu Lin suddenly stood up, bent his knees, and was about to kneel down.
Yu Yao neither moved nor tried to stop them.
He simply said, "You dare to do something so disgusting."
Seeing the person whose knees were bent halfway and suddenly stopped, she continued, "I dare to blow up your office."
Upon hearing this, Chu Lin quickly tried to stand up, but due to nervousness, his legs stiffened and he almost fell to the ground.
If Jin Heyan hadn't pulled him back, he might have really embarrassed himself.
After helping Chu Lin to sit down on the sofa, Jin Heyan sighed and said, "Miss Yu, we understand what you mean."
After saying that, he handed a piece of paper to Yu Yao.
It was clearly an agreement signed by Xu Zhiwu.
Yu Yao was holding it in her hand, looking down at it, when she heard Jin Heyan continue, "But... Ms. Liang Shuhua and Ms. Gu Ran haven't completed enough missions..."
Yu Yao laughed in exasperation.
Fire dragons and water dragons appeared simultaneously, circling and roaring around Yu Yao.
"You...you can't really be so naive as to think that a so-called agreement can bind them, can you?"
Yu Yao casually summoned flames to burn the agreement in her hand, then gently clapped her hands.
He stood up and looked down at Chu Lin and Jin Heyan, who were stunned by the pressure of the two dragon souls.
"I originally wanted to maintain harmony, but now it seems... when people become shameless, they don't deserve my polite words."
She turned and left, then added a final warning: "I'm taking him with me. If you dare to stop me, then try."
Only after Yu Yao left the room did Chu Lin and Jin Heyan feel relieved and their bodies went limp.
Chu Lin was sweating profusely, and his face was frighteningly pale.
"Old Jin, are we using the wrong approach?"
Jin Heyan clutched his chest, shaking his head and sighing helplessly.
"Forget it, this base is destined not to keep them here..."
......
When Yu Yao came out of the mission hall, Xu Zhiwu and Duan Yifeng had already arrived at the base entrance.
They had just dismounted from the giant tiger when it turned and left, quickly disappearing from sight.
Actually, it went back to the mount space.
When they returned to the Xu family home, Yu Yao was not there.
Gu Ran had been feeling unwell and listless because of what happened a few days ago.
With a pale face and looking aggrieved, she opened her arms, wanting Xu Zhiwu to hug her.
Xu Zhiwu, suppressing his nausea, hugged her and asked with concern, "Are you still feeling unwell? I heard a doctor came to the base, shall we go and see her?"
Gu Ran shook her head weakly.
"No need~ I'll be fine after a few days of rest."
Gu Ran still doesn't understand why she was the one who got hurt when her spell was clearly successful.
Yu Yao, on the other hand, is still alive and kicking and can still go on missions.
Gu Ran gritted her teeth; she also wanted spatial abilities and cool beast-taming abilities!
She didn't want that awful earth-based ability anymore!
Xu Zhiwu pretended not to notice Gu Ran's expression and simply asked, "We've finished the mission we owed the base, and I'm thinking of leaving the Jincheng base in the next couple of days. What's your opinion?"
Gu Ran's expression shifted slightly.
"But...my body...let's stay a few more days, okay? It's freezing outside right now, I'm afraid I won't be able to handle it."
Xu Zhiwu: "......"
Faced with Xu Zhiwu's silence, Gu Ran looked up at him expectantly.
"What? Are you in a hurry to leave?"
Xu Zhiwu said, "No, I'll listen to you."
"Mmm~ Zhiwu, you're so nice~"
Xu Zhiwu smiled slightly and pulled her into his arms.
The tenderness and affection on her face could no longer be concealed, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in her eyes.
Aunt Liang stood not far away, quietly watching the interaction between the two.
The fingertips gripping the stair railing almost dug into the hard wood.
......
Because of Gu Ran, Yu Yao and the others' plan to return to Kyoto was temporarily put on hold.
Yu Yao wasn't angry. She spent her days either cultivating or going out of the base to kill zombies and gain experience, which kept her very busy.
Chu Lin approached her several more times, hoping to ask for her help, but after being refused a few times, she stopped coming.
Duan Yifeng, on the other hand, would follow Yu Yao every time she went out to kill zombies, and also kill a few that escaped to extract their crystal cores.
On the sixth day of waiting, the base received an uninvited guest.
The zombies that had previously escaped.
A humanoid zombie that has been promoted to the Zombie King!
He was held aloft by a pillar of sand composed of countless fine grains, standing high above the city walls of the Jincheng base.
The flying sand behind them formed a giant portrait.
When he spoke, his voice seemed to travel through a giant megaphone, making it clearly audible in every corner of the base.
"Hand over this person, or we'll slaughter your entire base!"
Behind it were tens of thousands of zombies, a dark and oppressive mass.
Chu Lin and Jin Heyan rushed out and realized that this was the same dark-skinned, thin girl who had suddenly made a move at the base a few days ago, but whom they themselves had failed to capture.
Where are they going to hand over the person?
Chu Lin stared at the zombie king, suppressing his fear, and shouted, "No, there's no such person in our base! You've come to the wrong place!"
"No?" The Zombie King looked at Chu Lin with displeasure. "You're lying!"
Its voice, filled with anger and oppressive force, sent Chu Lin flying.
Chu Lin fell heavily to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood, his eyes filled with despair.
He, a level three ability user, was easily sent flying like that; one can imagine the opponent's strength!
Jin Heyan helped him up and said to a young man beside him, "Go find Miss Yu! Go find Miss Yu quickly!"
Yu Yao stood quietly on the roof of an apartment building, contemplating how to protect herself.
The experience gained from taking down those zombies behind!
A zombie king nearing level five is also somewhat tempting...
She touched her chin, but she couldn't win.
what!
How infuriating!
Why do zombies evolve so fast?! She finally managed to level up to level four after much effort.
Before I could even show off for a few days, I suffered from being a low-level player again!
That stinking zombie! It deserves to die!!!
......
After thinking it over, she decided to trick Gu Ran!
Yu Yao transformed the puppet, which had been infused with a drop of Gu Ran's blood and whose fate she had personally altered, into the appearance of that thin, dark-skinned girl.
They then implanted a defensive talisman and a wind-walking talisman into her body, allowing her to leap out of the city wall in full view of everyone.
Unfortunately, the zombie king saw it.
The zombie king's eyes suddenly turned a terrifying blood red, and it was propelled by the constantly moving and reorganizing sand pillars as it quickly chased after the puppet.
Before leaving, it didn't forget to give instructions to the zombies behind it.
"Kill them all!"
