Quick Travel: Destiny for Thirty Lifetimes

Chapter 74: The End of Humanity and Zombie Doomsday (End)

You are a sinner for all time.

Before Lian Qingyang could think about it, Ke Zhengqi's voice suddenly came from the other side of the city wall: "A Kuan!!!"

He raised his hand to take back the pansy, then squatted down and closed Meng Fanyu's eyelids. After quickly dealing with the zombies, he and Jiang Yuchen ran straight to the city wall.

Meng Fanyu died, and the zombies surrounding the city wall were no longer under control. They acted on instinct and the scene suddenly became chaotic.

Bian Chao took the opportunity to mentally control five third-level zombies, and the five instantly turned around and began to attack other zombies, making the scene even more chaotic.

The two took advantage of the chaos to find a place with fewer zombies. After they finished dealing with them, they used Lian Qingyang's vines to climb up the city wall. As they fought the zombies, they moved towards the center and saw Ke Zhengqi, who was gritting his teeth and hurling balls of dirt at the zombies.

Jiang Yuchen threw a few thunder balls at him and asked him, "What's wrong?"

Ke Zhengqi's men didn't stop and said angrily: "Just now, A Kuan was standing in front killing zombies. I don't know who pushed him and he suddenly fell down."

Lian Qingyang stood beside him, swiftly whipping the zombies that tried to climb up. He could only console him, "Ah Kuan is very capable, nothing will happen. Now the priority is to get rid of these zombies first."

Xiaojiu just told him that a younger brother rushed over and kidnapped A Kuan, but this cannot be told to Ke Zhengqi yet because A Kuan was accidentally bitten by a zombie.

Zombies surrounded them in waves, and even many psychics were worn out by the "corpse" sea tactics. Those whose psychics were almost exhausted could only retreat and absorb crystal cores to replenish them, and other psychics would take over. Some people simply absorbed the crystal cores in one hand and released psychic powers with the other hand, but they were "outstripping their income". There were also many ordinary people standing on the city wall to kill zombies, but their bullets were consumed very quickly.

After fighting for nearly an hour, many people were beginning to tire. Because the electricity was out at night, most people at the base went to bed around ten o'clock. They were woken up around one in the morning, their meals half-digested and sleepiness still lingering. After standing on end for over an hour, even those with better physical fitness than the average person were finding it difficult to bear.

Lian Qingyang and Jiang Yuchen even stayed up until after one o'clock. Although they could win by fighting like this, it would take too much time.

Resisting the urge to yawn, Lian Qingyang closed his eyes and stretched out his hand to start attacking. Two vines emerged from the palm of his hand, extending infinitely while beginning to split rapidly, each vine piercing the zombie's head accurately.

Meng Qingjie stopped attacking after seeing Lian Qingyang start to use his power, and poked Bian Chao and Ke Zhengqi: "Don't attack, Brother Qing is using his ultimate move, look."

The other two also stopped and looked forward. A vine pierced through the head and split into two, continuing to attack. This process was repeated until all the zombies below were strung up. The people on the city wall involuntarily stopped attacking and looked at Lian Qingyang. The scene gradually calmed down, and the fog slowly dissipated. In the quiet air, only the sound of piercing the head and the hoarse cries of the zombies could be heard.

*

There were far more zombies this time than before, and even Qingyang needed to use his mental power to control the pansy. His face turned pale, and he even shook his body when he retracted the vines. Jiang Yuchen nervously supported him.

The others finally recovered and started chatting away.

Meng Qingjie and the others gathered around to look at him. Kong Fajing came over, suppressing his triumphant joy and asking with concern, "Is Brother Lian okay?"

Lian Qingyang managed to steady himself, shook his head, pursed his slightly dry lips, and said to Ke Zhengqi, "Go find Xiaojiu outside the base gate later. He will take you to find A-Kuan. If you need anything later, ask Jiang Yuchen for help." He then looked at Kong Fajing and said solemnly, "A-Kuan was pushed down by someone just now. Please, base commander, take Bian Chao and help find him. I want to deal with it myself. Please."

Kong Fajing also became serious. Ah Kuan was one of his more valued subordinates. He turned a blind eye to some of the exclusion within the base, but that didn't mean some people could touch the people under his nose, and even directly kill them. He nodded immediately and said, "Don't worry, I will find the person myself. You should go and rest first and have a good sleep."

Jiang Yuchen took Lian Qingyang away first, and Ke Zhengqi also hurriedly reported and left the base to find Xiaojiu. Bian Chao followed the base commander to take away all the psychics near them, preparing to interrogate them one by one.

Meng Qingjie was bored and about to leave when he heard someone discussing his brother Qing.

"Oh my god, that Lian Qingyang is so amazing! No wonder they always choose the top ones for every mission."

"Those team members are so awesome, isn't that captain even more awesome?"

"I'm also a Wood type, why don't I have that move of Lian Qingyang?"

"Maybe your level is too low. Such a cool move requires at least level five."

"Why didn't he use that move earlier? It made us fight for so long, really."

"Who knows if he's just trying to show off? He had to wait until the very end to make a move instead of using it sooner rather than later."

"That's right. Those zombies are out to get people's lives. If you don't take human lives seriously, didn't Kuan get close to them? He ended up falling down. You must be regretting it now."

Meng Qingjie had been secretly pleased with himself for a while when he heard them being praised, but then he heard someone talking nonsense. He walked up to them and, relying on his height, looked down at them. "You saw how my brother Qing went back. If he hadn't cared about your lives, he wouldn't have used that move. Anyway, no matter how hard we fought, we wouldn't have died. And do you think that move can be used just like that? The ultimate move has a cooldown, right?"

"I think what Brother Qing should regret is not that he couldn't use it in the first place, but that he didn't wait until you guys were dead before using it. Instead of complaining about this and that, why not go on a few missions and improve your strength? Don't wait until you want to show off and find yourself unable to do so, and then just complain about it. You should be thankful that the captain and Brother Qing didn't let me kill people casually, otherwise, in this world, your lives would be in danger."

After saying this, without caring about the ugly faces of several people, Meng Qingjie turned around and jumped down from the city wall. He landed lightly, got on the car and disappeared in front of everyone.

Lian Qingyang said a few words to Jiang Yuchen and then fell asleep. Jiang Yuchen settled him down before going out and waiting for Ke Zhengqi at the gate of the base.

Half an hour later, Ke Zhengqi returned alone, accompanied by Xiaojiu. When he saw Jiang Yuchen, his eyes flickered and he quickly went over to Jiang Yuchen and said, "What should we do, Captain? Ah Kuan..."

Jiang Yuchen raised his hand to stop him from making a sound and took him to the car. Xiaojiu did not get in, but ran in front of the car. Jiang Yuchen followed Xiaojiu and asked, "What's going on?"

After not eating or drinking for a long time, Ke Zhengqi's voice gradually became hoarse. "A Kuan was bitten by a zombie and is still in a coma. However, there is no abnormality in his body. He just has a slight fever. Captain, I know A Kuan can't return to the base now. I would like to apply for temporary leave and take him to live outside for a few days."

Jiang Yuchen didn't say anything and drove quickly to where A Kuan was. He was surrounded by a mud wall, and several animals were surrounding him. There were also several zombie corpses next to him.

The two men got out of the car one after another. Jiang Yuchen had Ke Zhengqi remove the earthen wall and carry Ah Kuan to the back seat of the car. He then asked Xiaojiu to find a nearby house and put the two of them there. He handed the things in the trunk to Ke Zhengqi, "I asked Meng Qingjie to accompany you. The fact that he hasn't mutated yet proves that he has the potential to become a superpower. You don't have to worry too much. These are all edible. There's also some water, enough for three days. I hope you can return safely."

"The people have been caught. It was Xiao Jia and Xiao Ding who did it. They are under control now. However, the base commander said that if we want to deal with them, we have to leave the base." Bian Chao waited until Lian Qingyang had almost rested before coming to tell him that the two men could not escape.

As for where the other three people went, Lian Qingyang was not interested and did not ask. He asked Jiang Yuchen next to him to take Bian Chao to handle this matter.

He lay in bed with his eyes open for the whole morning. After lunch, he told Jiang Yuchen his thoughts: "I plan to leave the base."

Jiang Yuchen looked calm and nodded.

Lian Qingyang glanced at him and asked, "Don't you have any ideas?"

"I'll follow you wherever you go." Jiang Yuchen said as a matter of course.

Lian Qingyang rolled his eyes at him. "I think we need to take the initiative and not just sit there and wait for death. There may be large numbers of zombies gathering in other places, and there are definitely more than just Meng Fanyu. The relevant antidote may not be developed in a short time, so we can only choose this simple and crude method."

Jiang Yuchen nodded: "Okay, I'll go tell the base commander this afternoon and we'll set off in three days."

Three days later, the group of five left the base under the reluctant gaze of the base commander. After watching them go, the base commander sighed and said, "We lost six capable people at once. But those who care about the world should explore more!"

After the five people left, they first went to a private house and picked up A Kuan, who had just woken up half a day ago. Lian Qingyang took out a car from the space under his surprised gaze and asked Ke Zhengqi to take A Kuan. There were six people plus a cat in the group, three cars in total, and a bunch of mutated animals following behind, and they began a two-year alternative journey.

What is worth celebrating is that A Kuan has awakened his superpowers, and it is a healing power. Different from the treatment power, this power can restore people who have just been bitten by zombies to their original state.

At this time, several people were gathered together to eat. They had been out for more than a week and had been wandering around the city, almost eliminating all the zombies.

Meng Qingjie picked up a piece of meat and put it into Bian Chao's bowl, exclaiming, "This ability is too incredible. It needs to be triggered by being bitten by a zombie. It's a good thing it's A-Kuan. The others would have died long ago."

Ke Zhengqi nodded proudly. Lian Qingyang said, "Perhaps after upgrading, you can even purify zombies. However, your ability is too special. I don't think you have a crystal core that can be upgraded."

Ah Kuan didn't care, but Ke Zhengqi took a handful of colorful crystal cores and put them in his hand: "You try it, just in case it works."

The others also looked at him. Being stared at expectantly by a bunch of people, A Kuan pursed his lips embarrassedly, clenched his fists, closed his eyes and began to absorb. After a while, he opened his eyes and opened his hands, only a pile of residue left in his palms.

Meng Qingjie was stunned. "Oh my god! This is too good! I thought the captain and Qingge were already amazing, but A Kuan, you are even more amazing!"

They didn't even eat, and simply took out all the crystal cores and gave them to A Kuan. Lian Qingyang suggested: "It's best not to absorb them all at once, a handful a day, this way it's more stable."

Ah Kuan looked at the crystal cores piled up like a small mountain and nodded with tears in his eyes. So many crystal cores were treasures in the base, and he actually used them all for upgrading. If the base commander knew about this, he would be severely beaten up.

It was two years later when they returned to the base. During those two years, they traveled to many places and restored peace in many of them.

They tried to drive their car in but were stopped. There was a new registrar at the door and the system had been updated several times. They had to use new ID cards to enter.

After several people reported their skills, they were sent to the lounge nearby. Meng Qingjie had calmed down a lot in the past two years, but he still talked a lot. "Other things have changed, but this hasn't. I've been sent to the lounge again."

Soon the door opened. Kong Fajing, still catching his breath, stood outside the door, looking at the six people who stood up inside. His voice trembled a little, "Captain Jiang's team is full of talented people. The young people are really formidable!"

Jiang Yuchen stood at the front of the team. He exchanged glances with Lian Qingyang before smiling at Kong Fajing and saying, "Captain Kong, you're too kind!"

"Meow!"
