“Captain Zuo, what the Eastern Base can give you, I can give you too, and even more. Status, power, and crystal cores—just stay here! The journey is risky; why risk traveling?”

Wu Zhibang tried to win over Zuo You, and in fact, he invited Zuo You to join the official team more than once or twice, but was rejected each time.

Wu Zhibang now suspects that Zuo You may have originally wanted to go to the Eastern Base, which is why she has been refusing to join the N City Base.

"I'm sorry, Base Commander, I still have to leave." Zuo You pointed at Jian Hong and the others, and said in a calm tone, "Take them with me."

"Captain Zuo, I suggest you reconsider. This isn't the first time we've worked together, and our previous collaborations have been quite pleasant. Why turn your guns on me? After all... the N City base isn't a small base that can be easily manipulated."

"I have the ability to pay for the consequences of the decisions I make."

With a stern face, Wu Zhibang weighed the pros and cons in the face of Zuo You's domineering attitude.

Li Derun couldn't give up; the temptation of the gene serum was too great. Now, he was facing Zuo You and her team. Zuo You's teammates were also strong, and if he wanted to deal with them, he would probably have to use a human wave tactic.

Zuo You can deal with eighth-tier mutated beasts, but Wu Zhibang isn't sure how many people can deal with her.

Since we're not sure, let's give it a try!

He refused to believe that the strength of a base couldn't stop a mere dozen or so superhumans.

"Since Captain Zuo is determined to leave, let me see his strength." As soon as he finished speaking, hundreds of superhumans wielding bows and arrows appeared on the city wall, along with two crossbows used for defense.

Zuo You laughed, her smile extremely arrogant, "Yingying, look at how these weapons are sold, and then they turn around and use them against us."

An Yingying glanced at Xiaoyou's cool and arrogant smile, stiffly tugged at the corners of her mouth, and gave her own boss an awkward smile. It was just too childish!

This expression looks exactly like the female gang leader in an old idol drama she watched when she was in elementary school. Luckily, Sister Xiaoling didn't see this expression of yours, otherwise she might have given you a makeover.

After silently complaining about Zuo You, An Yingying finally collected her thoughts and started working.

Strands of black-gold light flowed into his palm, slowly forming a thin protective shield around him. Then, the five cars behind him, as well as the last car that Tang Haoran had just driven over, were also gradually covered by a black-gold protective shield.

Immediately afterwards, everyone boarded the vehicle at an extremely fast pace.

Wu Zhibang didn't understand what was going on, but his intuition told him that something was wrong, so he immediately ordered the shooting of the superhumans and the capture of the researchers.

But as the arrows approached the car, they seemed to lose their target, and a series of "clattering" sounds rang out as the arrows fell to the ground.

Tang Haoran threw lightning balls into the crowd on both sides of the city gate from inside the car to clear a path for An Yingying.

An Yingying ran to the city gate in a flash, her small hand touching the metal gate, the electric shock making her tremble uncontrollably.

"Captain Tang, please turn off the electricity on the door!"

An Yingying's face darkened, and she yelled at Tang Haoran speechlessly.

Tang Haoran then realized he had thrown the ball off target. His face flushed red, and he retrieved the electric fox from the city gate.

An Yingying reached out and pressed her hand against the city gate again. The city gate melted rapidly in front of the naked eye. Zuo You waved her hand and put it into her space.

Things happened so fast that everyone was stunned, as if watching a magic show. By the time they realized that the superpowered weapons had failed and that a direct superpower attack was needed, several vehicles had already driven out of the base.

Wu Zhibang stared at the disappearing city gate for a while, his face turning pale and then red, looking extremely unpleasant. "I've arranged for several vehicles to go out of the city to pursue them."

Actually, everyone knows that this order was just for the sake of saving face. So many people at the base couldn't stop Zuo You and her group, so how could they possibly stop them with just a few cars? Are you sure this isn't a joke?

“Let’s go back. We still need to report this to the leaders in the north. It’s not easy to explain!” Major General Jiang sighed as he stood behind Wu Zhibang. He turned around and revealed a sinister smile.

Zuo You's team was more powerful than he had imagined; he couldn't handle them now. It was good that they left; it wouldn't hinder his next plan. Taking control of the base was the most important thing.

Tang Haoran was driving, so shocked that his scalp tingled.

"Is this a weapon master's skill?"

Zuo You: "Our Yingying's unique skill!"

In my past life, there was a high-level weapon master, probably the one from the eastern region.

Because he was afraid of dying, he added his unique mark to the weapons he forged to prevent them from harming him.

Zuo You didn't know what a unique mark was, but she gave An Yingying a direction and let her try it herself.

An Yingying couldn't do it when she was at level four, but unexpectedly she figured it out when she was at level five. All the bows and arrows at the N City base were custom-made by An Yingying after she reached level five, so they've been branded by her!

However, this was the first time An Yingying had used this ability, and it was extremely taxing. If she had left two minutes later, she probably wouldn't have been able to handle it.

Not only Tang Haoran, but everyone in the Qinglong team was shocked by what just happened. They thought it would be a bloody battle, but it was unexpectedly resolved by the most low-key little girl in Zuo You's team!

"Hahaha... Wu Zhibang probably wants to die!" Jian Hong sat in the armored vehicle, crossed his legs, and laughed so hard he bent over while holding a walkie-talkie.

"We were lucky this time, thanks to Yingying." Su Ning was now chatting casually in a relaxed manner. They originally had another plan, which might have resulted in someone sacrificing themselves to get out of the base.

Leaving the base unscathed is the best possible outcome.

"Stop the car, let's switch cars," Zuo You said, picking up the walkie-talkie from the armrest.

It's awkward for Tang Haoran to be their driver; he's even interrupting their conversation. Let's hurry up and leave!

After a few minutes of adjustment, six vehicles slowly made their way towards J City on the national highway in N City.

Leading the way was a black armored vehicle, the second was Zuo You's RV, the third, fourth and fifth were modified buses, and the last was still a black armored vehicle.

The road was covered in ice, not snow. All six vehicles had off-road tires and snow chains on them, yet they were only a little faster than a tortoise.

Lin Ling, wearing sunglasses, yawned boredly in the passenger seat, picked up a tangerine, peeled it, carefully tore off the pulp, and fed it to Zuo You.

Zuo You chewed on the sweet and juicy orange and said helplessly, "The orange pulp is good stuff. Why do you have to tear it off? The orange pulp can clear the meridians and eliminate phlegm. Eating oranges with the pulp will prevent you from getting a sore throat, you know?"

Lin Ling tore at the food with great enthusiasm, not even looking up, saying, "It will affect the taste."

Zuo You was taken aback by these words, but finally nodded in agreement.

The six vehicles departed from the N City base at around 3 PM. Fearing that the N City base might mobilize a large number of vehicles to intercept them, Tang Haoran ordered them to travel overnight to avoid unnecessary trouble.

However, the ice surface is slippery, and many zombies now evolve and crawl out of the ice, causing holes of varying sizes to frequently appear on the ice. Driving a car requires extreme caution, resulting in slow speeds and considerable stress.

In addition, their nighttime travel, with the roar of their cars and the high beams, attracts the attention of zombies in the silent world. What's worse, the zombies run faster than the cars, making them impossible to shake off.
