Why aren't you guys complaining now that I'm here?

Xu Jianye was completely unaware of all this. He was thrown to the ground by the two men and was knocked unconscious. It took him a while to recover.

He wanted to find Li Shuwen and Xu Wan, but he didn't know where they lived.

It is more painful to have enjoyed a good life and then lose it than never to have enjoyed it at all.

At night, it rained. He had nowhere to go, was hungry, and was soaked like a drowned rat.

He wanted to find a place to shelter from the rain, and as he walked around he ended up outside the shack where the Xu family had previously lived.

The Xu family disappeared, replaced by a family of three: a mother and two teenage boys.

The two brothers were covered in dirt, and their mother was wiping their backs with a rag, with a look of heartache on her face.

The two of them excitedly talked about going out to kill zombies today. The mother listened quietly, gradually relaxed, and reminded them to be careful next time they go out and to help each other.

The two nodded obediently, and finally each took out a small cloth bag and handed it to their mother. Inside was something jingling like a crystal core.

The mother exclaimed and was about to speak when she suddenly caught a glimpse of a dark figure standing in the rain outside.

"who!"

The two brothers growled, stuffed the cloth bag into their mother's hands, and rushed out with the kitchen knife with a curved blade.

Xu Jianye ran away in embarrassment and hid.

The two brothers searched in the rain and didn't see any suspicious figures, so they supported each other and ran back.

Xu Jianye hid behind a trash can, looking at the two thin figures running away in the rain, feeling mixed emotions.

In the early morning, the heavy rain stopped.

A new day begins.

Lin Hao mentioned to Li Shuwen the matter of kicking Xu Jianye out. Li Shuwen nodded, said nothing, and quickly got back to her busy work.

While collecting supplies last month, they rescued two medical scientists who were studying viruses.

Lin Hagi remembered that in the plot, the Xu family used spiritual spring water to research a zombie virus potion, so he filled a bottle of spiritual spring water and asked them to do related research work. This morning, news came from the research institute that there was initial progress.

The two hurried to the research institute.

After testing, the medicine was found to be effective, but it also had obvious flaws - the success rate of injecting the medicine within five minutes after being bitten was 30%.

Injecting earlier than five minutes will not work.

Except for Lin Hao who was a little disappointed, everyone in the institute was excited.

Even if it's 30%, it's still countless times better than the inevitable death.

Moreover, this result proves that the direction of their research is correct. Now it is 30%, but in the future it may be 50%, 80%, or even completely cured!

[Host, Xu Jianguo is dead.]

On the way back, the system said.

Lin Hao raised an eyebrow, "How did he die?"

Someone in the queue outside the base concealed the fact that he had been bitten. Xu Jianguo was begging with that person and was bitten to death on the spot.

Little things like this happened every day, and the guards didn't even come to report it.

Half a month later, the success rate of the medicine exceeded 80%.

Lin Hao spread the news.

The bases that got the news flocked to Lin Hao, offering huge benefits and wanting to make a deal with him to buy the antidote.

Since there were benefits to be gained, Lin Hao naturally agreed and signed the contract for ten bases on the spot.

After the antidote was gradually shipped to various places in the Flower Country, Lin Hao became famous.

Upon hearing the news, other countries also rushed to the scene.

Lin Hao agreed to sign the contract with most countries, except Japan.

Although she is not the original owner, Lin Hao feels that a country that can do such unscrupulous things as those years ago is better off being destroyed, so as to save resources for reconstruction after the end of the world.

More than a year later, with the promotion of the antidote, every survivor in the Flower Kingdom had at least one, the number of zombies decreased significantly, and most of the human land was reclaimed.

After nearly two years of unrest, all order has disappeared.

After the common enemy was almost eliminated, there was a subtle tension between the various bases.

Wars broke out one after another in competition for land and resources.

[Host, Xu Jianye, Xu Dawei, and Zhao Cuiping are dead.]

As the dispute escalated, Lin Hao was so busy that he hadn't asked about the Xu family for a long time.

She rubbed her brows, and before she asked, the system gave her a considerate explanation.

[A year ago, Xu Jianye left the Watchtower Base and secretly followed Xu Dawei and Zhao Cuiping.]

After the antidote was released, the number of zombies decreased dramatically. Seeing they couldn't get into the base, Xu Dawei and Zhao Cuiping followed some of the survivors who had left to downtown Hecheng, with Xu Jianye following shortly after.

[It rained last night, and Xu Dawei's wound hurt. Zhao Cuiping asked Xu Jianye to go out and find medicine. As soon as Xu Jianye went out, he ran into a level 4 zombie that had become intelligent and was hiding. Happy to win the whole family's Candy Crush game.]

It’s hard to describe Lin Hao in a few words.

"Is Xu Jianye mentally ill? Why is he coming over to seek abuse again?"

The system simulated a spread-hands expression. [You humans seem to call this behavior a lack of love.]

"Ok."

Lin Hao sighed and quickly put the matter behind him.

Because the two nearest bases have joined forces and issued a declaration of war to attack the Overwatch Base.

Lin Hao was really annoyed.

She didn't want to fight or fight for territory at all.

But at this point, if she really gave up, Overwatch Base would definitely lose.

She could find a secluded place to enjoy herself, but Li Shuwen and everyone in the base would be finished.

It's really speechless to say. When I was looking to buy the antidote, they all came up to me with a shameless face, saying all kinds of nice things, and they wanted to recognize Lin Hao as their own mother.

Now that the zombies are gone, they are jealous of the Overwatch Base’s wealth and power and can’t wait to annex them.

In that case, let's fight.

On the first day of the battle, Li Shuwen displayed his extraordinary power. With the blessing of his eighth-level supernatural power, every drop of water was like a deadly blade, ruthlessly reaping the lives of the enemies.

Lin Hao sat upright on the roof of the car, holding a flying knife as thin as a cicada's wing. If anyone tried to attack him by surprise, he would flick his finger and hit them right in the middle of their eyebrows.

Li Shuwen is the main output mage, she is a warrior and a meat shield.

The two cooperated seamlessly, and the battle was over after half an hour.

The people in the two bases were either killed or fled, and the army was completely defeated.

After this battle, the reputation of the two men spread completely.

The other forces that were ready to make a move suddenly became obedient.

Are you kidding? He’s a big shot with level eight superpowers!

Before this, any base with a level five mutant could walk around freely.

Eighth-level superpower, I don’t even dare to think about it.

Li Shuwen took charge of the base affairs alone. Lin Hao was bored and drove around alone, hunting high-level zombies that had gained intelligence and were hiding and waiting for an opportunity to cause trouble.

Twenty years later, Li Shuwen reached the end of her life, and Lin Hao went back to see her for the last time.

"Although I don't know who you are, I still want to thank you for saving Xiaowan's life this time."

Li Shuwen lay on the hospital bed, patted Lin Hao's forearm with her skinny hand, and her half-closed eyes contained a clear and insightful look.

Lin Hao raised his eyebrows and reached out to brush away the messy hair on her temples. "Go to sleep peacefully."

Li Shuwen raised a tired smile at the corner of her lips, nodded slightly, and closed her eyes.

Breathing gradually stopped.

The last teardrop sank into the gray hair.
