On the yellow sand road.

A figure in red and a figure in white appeared.

"Sister~ We've been searching for so long, but we still haven't found Tang Chen and Tang Pipi. Do you think they're dead?"

Yu Sheng stopped in her tracks, idly playing with the hem of her skirt. She was alluring with captivating eyes, and her red mini-skirt accentuated her fiery and sexy figure, radiating irresistible charm.

"uncertain."

Yu Lian stopped in her tracks. She was dressed in a long white dress that was light and graceful, like a lotus flower that rose from the mud unsullied. Her temperament was otherworldly and her eyes were calm and undisturbed.

The two sisters have the same face, but different temperaments, making them easily distinguishable at a glance.

Yu Sheng curled her lips, "Back then, Tang Chen led the team and encountered a zombie horde, leaving him alone to hold it off. That was a zombie horde, how could he possibly stop it? Even Tang Pipi, who went out to look for him, disappeared."

Yu Lian shook her head. "Tang Chen is the base captain. With his abilities, he won't fall into the hands of zombies so easily. As for Tang Pipi, if she finds him, the two siblings can travel together without any problem. But if she doesn't find him, things will probably be very dangerous."

Although Tang Pipi is also a high-level ability user, her abilities are weaker than those of others at the same level, and more importantly, she's not very bright...

"If you're alive, why don't you go back to base? We've been looking for you for ages."

Yu Lian tapped Yu Sheng's head with her finger and said helplessly, "You know the rules of the Bei Mu Base. No matter what position you are in, it is the most capable. Tang Chen must have used up a lot of his supernatural abilities to resist the zombie horde. If he goes back when his abilities are diminished, I'm afraid there will be many people who will take this opportunity to challenge him."

"At that time, he will have no energy to deal with it, and after the defeat, he will only have death to live on."

"makes sense."

The position of base captain is second only to the base commander. The current base commander is so powerful that no one has been able to challenge him. Those who crave power can only covet the position of base captain.

The two of them were also among them; after all, the convenience and advantages brought by power were simply too tempting.

Yu Sheng's gaze fell on the fallen tree by the roadside. The trunk was broken in the middle, with jagged edges, as if it had been broken by a strong force. Zombie corpses were scattered on the ground nearby, and this anomaly aroused her suspicion.

She reached out and grabbed Yu Lian's arm: "Sister, look over there!"

Yu Lian followed her gaze and then walked over to place her hand on the broken tree. A pale green light shone from her palm, and in an instant, the broken tree began to grow again, gradually becoming lush and verdant.

A leaf fell from the tree, and Yu Lian caught it in her open palm. She closed her eyes and carefully felt it. "It tells me that a human who can control the wind broke it."

"Wind? That's a wind-type ability user. Could it be Tang Chen?" Yu Sheng asked excitedly.

"That's possible. Let's look in that direction."

Yu Lian communicated with the plants along the way to find out the direction Tang Chen had left in.

"He finally disappeared in that abandoned factory over there. Let's go take a look."

Yu Sheng looked at Yu Lian with envy in her eyes.

Yu Lian's superpower, "Radiant Plants," allows her to communicate with plants, but her other superpower, "Corruption of Life," terrifies them.

Inside an abandoned factory.

The sallow-faced, emaciated man staggered and bumped into the woman in front of him. The woman turned around and punched him, clearly annoyed.

She yelled angrily, "Are you blind? You bumped into me!"

Only after she finished scolding him did she notice his strange behavior and asked in confusion, "Zhao Xiaoliu, what's wrong with your skin color and your neck?"

Zhao Xiaoliu quickly covered the bulging veins on his neck, causing his sleeve to slip down and revealing blackened teeth marks on his wrist. He stammered, "No, it's nothing..."

Their voices attracted the attention of those around them, who all looked over. Someone in the crowd shouted, "He's been bitten by a zombie!"

The crowd that had surrounded him scattered instantly, while Liu Dafu, who was lying on the ground, struggled to crawl away from him, his fingers digging into the ground.

"I didn't! I wasn't bitten! You're lying!"

Zhao Xiaoliu roared emotionally, then shook his increasingly dizzy head, trying to maintain the last bit of consciousness.

"Still denying it? Everyone, look at his wrist!"

"It's true, the wound has turned black, it must have been bitten by a zombie. Judging from his current symptoms, he's probably about to mutate!"

Everyone panicked and rushed to Tang Chen's back.

"Why are you still following us after you've been bitten? You're trying to get us killed!"

"Kill him quickly, before he bites us!"

People angrily accused Zhao Xiaoliu and shouted for Tang Chen to kill him.

"I didn't want to be bitten either, why are you blaming me! It's not my fault!" Zhao Xiaoliu shouted angrily.

"Why am I the one who suffers, and not you? Since I'm infected, I'll infect you all too, and I'll make you all die with me!"

"You're so selfish!"

As soon as Zhao Xiaoliu finished speaking, his bones cracked and popped as if they were breaking and rebuilding. His body bent backward in a strange posture and then suddenly stood up straight.

He has mutated into a zombie.

Tang Chen raised his hand, preparing to unleash his supernatural power to finish him off.

Suddenly, a vine wrapped around his wrist, and at the same time, several vines sprouted wildly from his feet and wrapped around his whole body. The one controlling the vines was Yu Lian.

"Captain Tang Chen, we finally found you! Captain, you really made it hard for my sister and me to find you."

"Who are you?" Tang Chen frowned.

“You don’t need to know who we are. You just need to remember the base’s rules. My sister and I are here to replace you.”

Meanwhile, Zhao Xiaoliu, who had turned into a zombie, bit Liu Dafu, who was crawling on the ground. However, he was assimilated into a zombie in a short while.

The crowd scattered in terror, pushing and shoving each other. Those who were pushed to the ground were trampled on by those who were only concerned with running away before they could even get up.

Soon the zombies pounced, and with the continuous infection, more and more mutated into zombies.

Just as Cang Xingyue was about to kill the zombie, her reconstructed body, due to the incomplete integration of the Pure Lotus, caused her brain to become sluggish again. She stood there blankly, looking completely bewildered.

What should I do?

For a moment, she couldn't remember what she was supposed to do.

Looking at the zombies around him, one after another, he suddenly remembered: "Zombies... Yes, we have to fight zombies."

After saying that, he quickly forgot and stood there blankly without moving.

In a short while, the original group of people had turned into zombies, and they all focused their attention on the four remaining humans.

The three were focused on fighting when the zombies ran over but were killed by the supernatural powers they unleashed.

Some zombies had already approached Cang Xingyue, but she was still standing there blankly. Tang Chen saw this and anxiously shouted to her, "Cang Xingyue! Move! Use your whip to hit the zombies!"

"Yes, we should use whips to beat the zombies."

Cang Xingyue lashed out at the zombies with her whip, sending two of them flying.

But after she lashed out with the whip, she stopped moving.

Like a broken wire suddenly being reconnected, Sousei's mind finally regained its clarity.

She reacted immediately, wielding her whip to eliminate all the zombies that pounced on her.

She breathed a sigh of relief; she had almost been bitten. The bug that made her brain sluggish after being resurrected really came at the worst possible time. She watched helplessly as all of these people mutated.

She looked at Tang Chen and said, "Thank you." If Tang Chen hadn't called her just now, she probably would have been bitten by a zombie.

"It's just a small favor, no need to thank me."

Seeing that he was easily handling both of them and even had time to talk to her, Cang Xingyue didn't rush to help him. Not knowing their relationship or the reason for their fight, she didn't want to interfere.

Are they your enemies?

"No, they're from the base, they came to kill me."

"If there's no grudge, why send someone to kill you? Which base is so despicable?"

"I am the captain of the North Dusk Base. They are here to challenge me, wanting to defeat me and take my place," Tang Chen explained with some helplessness.

"So it's the North Twilight Base..." Cang Xingyue exclaimed in surprise, as if she had just remembered something. "What did you say? North Twilight Base? Captain?!"
