Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

Lan Yan drove very fast, and after going about ten meters, he spoke.

"Blow up the bridge!"

Chi Chen quickly glanced at the remaining distance ahead, then looked back at the distance between himself and the zombie.

He took a bomb from the back seat, and as the jeep reached the ground, Chi Chen lit the fuse and threw it out.

There was a loud noise of "Boom!"

The other end of the suspension bridge was completely destroyed, and the countless zombies on the bridge all fell down with it.

Several of them grabbed the iron locks on this side, and after being washed away by the water jets, all the zombies fell off the cliff.

Lan Yan made a turn and parked the car on the edge of the cliff.

Then they saw mutated zombies surging towards them from the opposite side.

The vehicle I just glanced at was packed with zombies in the back, but there was no one in the driver's seat at all.

Therefore, these cars are in a driverless state.

"This is being remotely controlled; they're targeting me." Lan Yan frowned, unable to immediately figure out who was targeting him.

They actually sent out so many mutated zombies.

At this point, Lan Yan had begun to have doubts.

He suspected that these people were not sent by the Zombie King at all. If the Zombie King had the ability to mutate zombies, then what the Zombie King should have done was destroy the entire world.

Instead of sending all the zombies here to chase him.

If the Zombie King has a grudge against Hope Base, then it's even less likely.

Qiu Xuanyu is the son of the Hope Base Chief; if anyone should be killed, it should be him.

Chi Chen shared the same thoughts as Lan Yan, but compared to Lan Yan, Chi Chen, having served in the military before, was thinking more deeply about these matters.

He asked thoughtfully, "Have you ever considered that these are all products from a laboratory?"

Some of the zombies' bodies had clearly been modified, and they all possessed supernatural abilities.

Lan Yan looked at the mutated zombie that was still roaring and nodded:

“I’ve encountered that zombie king before, but not the one from yesterday.”

"The zombie from yesterday was slow-moving, and apart from being a bit large, there was nothing special about it. Also, the zombie king was a higher level than mine, and he used lightning-based abilities...?"

Lan Yan paused at this point.

Qiu Xuanyu's words suddenly flashed through his mind.

'He's a zombie; his eyes are gray, just like the zombies outside.'

If Akahoshi really is a zombie, then Lanyu...

A terrible thought arose in Lan Yan's heart, and his face turned extremely ugly.

When he mentioned that the Zombie King possessed lightning-type superpowers, Chi Chen immediately thought of Lan Yu.

We both thought of Qiu Xuanyu's words.

Chi Chen frowned and said, "I have their location information. Let me drive."

They rushed as fast as they could and caught up with the people from the Star Base in the middle of the night.

The two immediately went to find Lan Yu and Chi Xing.

They found the car and learned that Lan Yu and the others had gone out.

The two of them left the group on their own, so naturally the others couldn't wait for them.

They were told to continue south, while Lan Yan and Chi Chen set off with provisions and water to find Lan Yu and Chi Xing.

Because of the mutated zombies they had encountered before, no one dared to linger.

"They've most likely gone to track down the mutated zombies. Don't worry, we'll find them," Chi Chen reassured Lan Yan.

*

A few days later, two figures stood on a tall building, with a huge moon behind them.

Lan Yu was looking towards a park that resembled a cage, surrounded by electric fences and metal walls, with a hidden sentry at intervals.

"Ayu, zombies." Akahoshi's voice was no longer as hoarse as before, and her words were much more fluent.

Lan Yu followed his gaze to an iron gate in the park, where mutated zombies, whose origins were unknown, were entering one after another.

It was pitch black inside, and you couldn't see anything except for several people in white coats standing around, holding notebooks as if they were taking notes.

"The mutated zombies came from here."

Lan Yu can control other zombies, and at this moment she is also trying to control the zombies in the park.

But these things are clearly different from ordinary zombies; they are like machines that have been controlled by humans.

What is controlling them, and who wants to kill Lan Yan?

At this point, Akahoshi had also figured out the ins and outs of the matter and knew who was behind it all.

"Hope Base".

He said, "Could it be that the people at Hope Base are deliberately targeting you?"

Lan Yu remained silent.

The reason they ran away was not only to find the headquarters of these mutated zombies, but also to avoid Lan Yan.

Seeing the confused look on his face, Lan Yu said:

“Xingxing, I used to think about killing him. I thought they were the ones who made me like this.”

After those mutated zombies appeared, Lan Yu should have thought of these things the moment he remembered Qiu Xuanyu pushing him off the city wall.

If Lan Yan didn't come to kill him, then why did he keep coming out to find him, risking his life to do so...?

Lan Yu dared not imagine how disappointed Lan Yan would be after learning the truth.

“I started causing trouble for him a few years ago. Even though I didn’t kill him myself, I was responsible for many of the zombie attacks.”

Seeing the helpless Lan Yu, Chi Xing hugged him tenderly.

"You don't remember before, and that's not your fault."

In the original storyline, Lan Yu, as the villainous boss, constantly creates difficulties for the main characters.

All of these occurred when Lan Yu lost her memory. The zombie king, without memories, harbored hatred for someone and felt he had to kill them.

Less than a third of the damage has occurred so far, and there is still room for improvement.

Moreover, Lan Yan was a doting brother, and even after he learned that Lan Yu was behind it all, Lan Yan never blamed him.

Even after Lan Yu died, he tried to kill Qiu Xuanyu several times.

However, in the world setting, the protagonist will later become the most powerful human, and even Lan Yan, who has dual-elemental abilities, is no match for him.

Moreover, he had drugged her, and her only ability to protect herself had disappeared.

Lan Yan lost her parents and her only younger brother. She was imprisoned by Qiu Xuanyu and became his "beloved wife" locked in a golden house.

At this point in the story, a considerable amount of text was devoted to scenes of bondage, coercion, and being confined in a dark room.

Akahoshi skipped all of it, didn't look at it carefully at all, and had no idea who wrote it.

Lan Yan's dignity was trampled into the mud, and he survived by avenging his younger brother.

But none of them were successful. He suffered from severe depression and attempted suicide time and time again. Qiu Xuanyu saved him, but still restricted his freedom.

On the last occasion, when Qiu Xuanyu was away, Lan Yan succeeded.

As for the later plot where Qiu Xuanyu regrets his actions, Chi Xing scoffs at it.

The park they are looking at now is what the people at the Hope Base were going to build.

The mutated zombies inside all serve Qiu Hongguang, the leader of the Hope Base.

The reason he helped Lan Cheng and his wife, Lan Yu's parents, to research a serum to eliminate the zombie virus was entirely for his own benefit.
