Chapter 306: Chapter 154 Jiang Shixue_1, The nights during the apocalypse were noisy, as zombies preferred the dark. Every night, the zombies would start their nocturnal activities., But now, Shuize Base was very quiet, eerily quiet., When Wang Tao had lured a large number of zombies away before, some Ordinary zombies hadn’t left. They were all outside of Shuize Base., But now, Wang Tao didn’t see any zombies, nor did he hear any roaring. It was as quiet as during the day., This was clearly not right!, Could it be that something had happened to the base again? That would be incredibly unlucky., With a grim expression, Wang Tao made his way to the base of the main building and knocked on the door., “Open up, it’s me.”, After a moment, Lu Gang opened the door, with Wei Zhen Guo and the others behind him., “Wang Tao, are you alright?” Lu Gang quickly asked., “I’m fine.” Wang Tao was relieved to see Lu Gang and the others unscathed. It was good that the base was safe—they had so few people left that they couldn’t afford any more setbacks…, “Hey, what’s this?”, After Wang Tao entered, the crowd saw the bloodied figure he was carrying and was immediately surprised., “Old Xiang, Xiang Hongbin, he’s not dead yet.”, Wang Tao gently laid Xiang Hongbin down, and everyone saw his pale face., “Old Xiang!”, After a moment of stunned silence, everyone crowded around excitedly., “Is he…is he really not dead…”, Wei Zhen Guo’s eyes reddened, his hand reaching out to grab Xiang Hongbin, but afraid it was all a dream, he dared not touch him., “He’s still alive, but whether he can pull through depends on himself now…” Wang Tao felt that Xiang Hongbin had a high chance of survival since his HP had increased quite a bit after his treatment. But the greater the hope, the greater the potential for disappointment. Wang Tao didn’t dare to be too certain., “Is there a doctor here? Someone come and treat Old Xiang’s wounds!”, Wang Tao called out., “Me!”, Chen Zhuang quickly raised his hand., His face and body were all covered in grime, which Wang Tao had not noticed upon his arrival., “Alright, we’ll leave it to you!”, Wang Tao patted Chen Zhuang’s shoulder., “Chen Zhuang is the last doctor left in the base…”, Lu Gang explained with a somber tone., “Sigh…” Wang Tao sighed, then said, “Everyone, take a good rest. I’ve killed those Poisonous Fog Zombies. We’re all safe now.”, Although the crowd was stirred by this news, they were also very distressed., Wei Zhen Guo and the others went to take care of Xiang Hong Bin, while Ding Yuqin and Han Rui held Wang Tao’s hands from each side, Wang Tao feeling their trembling bodies., “Member Ren Jie, Commissioner Liu He, Commissioner Feng Ming’an…they’ve all made the ultimate sacrifice…Huo Ziyi is also gone. Before she died, she said she wanted you to see her newly choreographed dance…”, Han Rui said softly, her head lowered., Wang Tao’s mind flashed with images of Ren Jie and the others, recalling Huo Ziyi and her younger sisters dancing in front of him, their faces begging for praise…, Wang Tao gripped Han Rui’s hand tightly., “They were heroes!”, “Yes! They were all heroes!”, Wang Tao had everyone go inside to rest and prepared to stand watch until dawn. Han Rui and Ding Yuqin decided to keep him company for a while, as they had just rested and were not very tired., Looking at the two women, Wang Tao always felt that something was not quite right, but he couldn’t quite put his finger on it., At that moment, Han Rui suddenly asked Ding Yuqin,, “By the way, where’s Li Qiuyu?”, With that, Wang Tao suddenly realized what was amiss—he hadn’t seen Li Qiuyu since returning!, When he had gone to attract the zombies, he clearly saw Li Qiuyu with Han Rui and the others!, “She…”, Ding Yuqin hesitated for a moment, she had just been resting, and Li Qiuyu had been right by her side all along. But when Wang Tao came back, everyone had gone to see him, and it seemed she hadn’t seen Li Qiuyu then…, “Let’s go look for her!”, The two women exchanged glances, each sensing a bad premonition. After all, for safety reasons, everyone had been together before., A few minutes later, Wei Zhen Guo and the others also arrived, all of them looking very grave., Li Qiuyu…was missing!, One of the room’s windows showed signs of being tampered with, and from the outside no less!, Someone, or something, had come in and taken Li Qiuyu without a chance for her to resist or make noise., And they, so many people, had not noticed anything!, This was terrifying!, If the intruder’s target was them, were they all doomed?, As for the possibility of Li Qiuyu leaving voluntarily, everyone thought it was improbable. After all, it was the middle of the night—any fool knew this was not the time to go outside!, “You all get some rest. We’ll talk about Li Qiuyu tomorrow. I’ll keep watch, rest assured.”, Looking at the scratch marks by the window, Wang Tao turned to the others and said., “Okay…”, It was still night, and even if they went out to search for her, they wouldn’t be able to do much., Wang Tao let Han Rui and Ding Yuqin go to rest while he sat alone in the hall. Wei Zhen Guo came by and discussed the matters regarding his Level 2 Ascension, but soon Wei Zhen Guo couldn’t stay awake and went off to sleep. Wang Tao remained watchful until daybreak without incident., Upon seeing the next day’s sun, all the survivors wept with joy., “Let’s collect whatever resources we can use…”, Wei Zhen Guo immediately began giving orders. Sadly, with only twenty or thirty people left, the efficiency of reconstructing the base had dropped significantly., Wang Tao went up to the rooftop. It was still raining lightly, but it did not hinder his view. He carefully observed the surroundings.
