I failed again

The public opinion in Nanjing Base clamoring to kill Chu Yi was temporarily calmed down by the official announcement issued by the base.

But secretly there are still many people who hate zombies and do not believe the announcement issued by the base and plan to assassinate Chu Yi.

Helplessly, Chu Yi moved into the central area and went in and out with the commander every day. They couldn't find any opportunity, so they had to give up and settled down temporarily.

------

Bai Ci was responsible for picking up the commander of the Z City base. When he was in D City, he met the commander of the Z City base who was under siege.

Bai Ci took a look and found that in addition to some low- and middle-level zombies, there were also six psychics besieging them, four of whom were level seven and two were level six.

Among the people in the Z City base, except for the commander who is level eight, there are only two who are level seven. They are obviously at a disadvantage when facing them, not to mention the zombies nearby who launch sneak attacks from time to time.

Bai Ci and his teammates went over to help them share the burden of the three level seven psychics, allowing the people at the Z City base to breathe a sigh of relief.

With the joining of Bai Ci and others, the battle became almost one-sided, and several psychics were beaten back by them.

The psychic who fought against Bai Ci was defeated by Bai Ci and was killed directly by Bai Ci.

Seeing their companions die, the other five psychics took a few steps back, looking at Bai Ci with fear in their eyes.

Finally, the leader waved his hand and said, "Retreat!"

Chu Yunze only asked them to intercept the commander of City Z, but did not say that they must kill him. Now that they have completed the interception mission, there is no need for them to fight for such a mission. It is better to retreat first.

Bai Ci and the others watched as the psychics in front of them turned around and ran away after receiving the order to retreat. They wanted to chase after them, but were stopped by Bai Ci.

"Our mission this time is not to hunt them down." Bai Ci said as he dealt with the zombies around him. At the same time, he looked warily at the man who was standing not far away and did not retreat with them, wondering in his heart what the other party's purpose was in staying.

"No need to look at me so warily." Chen You raised his hands in surrender and walked towards Bai Ci and the others, saying, "My name is Chen You, and I was a member of the former guard team of the fallen H City base. Now, I have come to return to the human camp."

Bai Ci was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said, "Why should I believe you? Who knows if you were sent by Chu Yunze to confuse us and get intelligence?"

Chen You was not annoyed when he heard this. He knew that it was normal for humans not to trust him because he had joined the zombies. He said helplessly, "I don't have any chips that can make you believe me, so I don't ask you to believe me now, but at least give me some time to prove myself?"

Chen You looked at Bai Ci and said, "I don't ask you to accept me into the base. I just hope to stay at the gate of the Nanjing base. Just don't expel me."

Bai Ci raised an eyebrow, "Waiting at the gate of the base?"

"Yes." Chen You said, "I have surrendered to the zombies. If someone like me who has been with the zombies is allowed into the base, I would not feel at ease, let alone you. So, my requirements are not high. I just want to stay at the gate of the base. Of course, if there are zombies, I will fight with you and drive them away, as long as you don't drive me away. I don't want to go back to that base full of zombies at all."

"Don't want to go back to that base full of zombies? Then why did you join the zombies before?" Bai Ci asked.

"Because I want to live." Chen You said, "At that time, the Gaos in the H City base either surrendered to the zombies or refused to surrender to the zombies and were killed. I don't want to die, and I still want to live and kill zombies, so I can only pretend to surrender to the zombies first."

If he stays alive, he will have the chance to return to the human base, fight the zombies again and protect humanity.

But if he was killed by zombies, he would become a zombie and become part of the attack on the human base, which was something he could not accept.

He could die, but he could not allow his body to be commanded to attack the humans he had been protecting.

Therefore, Chen You made a prompt decision to surrender. As long as he was alive and as long as his mind could control his body, he could temporarily accept being in the zombie camp.

Chen You looked at Bai Ci who was thinking about the truth of his words, and continued, "Mr. Bai, please be kind and accept me for the time being. I surrendered to you in front of so many zombies, and if the news gets to Chu Yunze's ears, Chu Yunze will definitely not let me go. If you still drive me away at this time, I will have no choice but to die."

"Besides, there shouldn't be enough psychics in the Nanjing base right now, right? I am at least a level seven psychic, so my joining you will be of benefit and no harm."

Bai Ci looked at Chen You's sincere expression, and after weighing the pros and cons in his mind, he agreed, "Okay. I can only temporarily agree to your joining, but the real decision still has to be made by the commander of our base."

"Okay." Chen You breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that. He was afraid that Bai Ci would not even give him the hope of staying at the gate of the base. Fortunately, in the end, Bai Ci agreed.

Chen You got into Bai Ci's car and escorted the commander of the Z City base to the Nanjing base with them.

The commander of the Z City base looked at Chen You. This man had defected to the zombies but suddenly left the team while carrying out the orders of the Zombie King and told them that he wanted to return to the human camp. It was really confusing.

Could he be an undercover agent sent by the Zombie King? But if he was an undercover agent, he offered to just stay at the gate of the South View base. How could an undercover agent suggest that?

Could it be that he is retreating in order to advance?

The commander of City Z was thinking about this, but his expression remained calm. He just thanked Bai Ci and said, "We have to thank Captain Bai for bringing people to pick us up this time. Otherwise, we really wouldn't be able to get away today."

"It's my duty. Since Nanjing Base has invited you here, we naturally have to ensure your safety." Bai Ci replied with a smile.

The commander of City Z smiled and said, "Thank you very much, Captain Bai, for leading the team on this trip. By the way, Captain Bai, I want to ask, how is the food reserve at the Nanjing Base now?"

The current planting area of ​​the Z City base has been destroyed, and it will take a long time to rebuild it. The food reserves in the base will not last long. He came here this time to see if he could borrow some food from the Nanjing Base to tide over the difficulties.

Even after receiving Feng Linxi's reply and knowing that the current situation of Nanjing Base was not good and the research institute and planting area were destroyed, he still had hope in his heart.

That's the Nanjing Base, which gathers the most top scientific researchers in the human race, as well as a large number of people with wood-type abilities. Even if the research institute and the planting area were destroyed, with the foundation of the Nanjing Base, it would be very quick to rebuild a planting area!

Little did he know that Bai Ci would give him a bolt from the blue. "It won't last long. All the data in the institute has been destroyed, and the researchers have been killed. Now the base has lost the land that could increase production. Even if all the wood-type mutants work overtime, the food production will definitely be much lower than before."

"This..." The commander of City Z's eyes were filled with despair.

Bai Ci patted his shoulder and said, "The commander is already trying to figure out a solution to this problem."

"I hope..." The commander of City Z said in a low voice, "...it can really be solved."

He suddenly realized that there was darkness ahead for humanity and he saw no chance of humanity winning.

On the way back, no one spoke a word.

After traveling day and night, we finally arrived at the gate of Nanjing Base on the morning of the third day.

Bai Ci had the car parked at the gate of the base and kindly asked Chen You to get out of the car. He also asked the soldiers guarding the gate of the base to open the door and let their convoy in.

Chen You didn't say anything and got out of the car. He glanced at the gate of the Nanjing base in front of him and took a deep breath. It was great without the rotten and disgusting zombie smell in the zombie base.

The H City base was also like this once upon a time, but it was later destroyed by those traitors.

Chen You closed his eyes and swore secretly in his heart that sooner or later, he would kill those traitors one by one with his own hands!
