What was shocking was that the zombies seemed to have planned it in advance. They dispersed in a certain formation before the explosion and took advantage of the shock wave of the explosion to break into deeper defense areas.
In the underground laboratory, a team of fully armed elites are guarding the last line of defense.
"They can't break through here, this is..." Before the captain could finish his words, the ground suddenly shook.
"Oh no! Underground garage!" someone exclaimed.
It turned out that a large number of zombies had found the entrance to the underground garage and broke through the weakest link of the base. What's more terrifying is that they actually know how to drive armored vehicles!
"Boom!" The armored vehicle smashed the last line of defense.
In the monitoring room, the supervisor looked at the defense zones being breached one by one, his face pale: "These are no longer ordinary zombies, they... they are evolving!"
In the meeting room on the top floor, several key figures were trying to escape through a secret passage. However, when they opened the escape hatch, a dozen zombies stood expressionlessly at the entrance of the passage, their blue eyes particularly creepy in the dark.
"It's over..." someone whispered in despair.
Zhang Chen stood in the distance, watching the base fall bit by bit. Under the light of the fire, his expression was unusually calm: "This is just the beginning."
“The Shadow Council thought they controlled death,” Yaer said softly, “but they didn’t know that death would eventually bite them back.”
A ball of fire suddenly burst out in the main control room of the base, marking the destruction of the heart of this huge organization.
There were roars coming from the distance, as if the gates of hell had been opened, and countless dead souls were cheering...
At dawn, the iron gate of the safe zone slowly opened.
Residents who were doing morning exercises came out in twos and threes, and greeted Zhang Chen respectfully when they passed by him.
This was once a military base and has now been converted into a shelter.
The runes on the high walls emit a light blue light day and night, keeping out external threats.
"Captain Zhang, the new refugees have been settled." Yaer handed over a report, "But..."
"Is someone trying to take advantage of the loophole again?" Zhang Chen took the document with sharp eyes.
"Well, we found three undercover agents of the Shadow Council and have dealt with them."
Zhang Chen nodded: "Human nature is greedy, it's normal for someone to want to sneak in. But..." He sneered, "Since you have chosen this path, you should think about the consequences."
Life in the safe zone was in good order. The market was bustling with people, and the trading of food, medicine and other supplies was going on normally. Zhang Chen deliberately retained the monetary system so that people could maintain a sense of normal life.
"Chief Zhang!" a vendor greeted enthusiastically, "Try this, the newly arrived apples!"
Zhang Chen took a bite and smiled approvingly. This was his favorite moment, watching people work hard to live every day.
Suddenly, there was a commotion.
"The fighting has begun!" someone shouted.
Zhang Chen rushed to the scene with a frown. Two men were fighting, and the people around them did not dare to approach.
"what happened?"
"Sir," the guard explained immediately, "this man stole the other party's ration coupons."
Zhang Chen's eyes turned cold, and the temperature around him seemed to drop suddenly. The thief immediately collapsed to the ground: "I'm sorry, sir! I..."
"Take him away and deal with him according to the rules." Zhang Chen said calmly.
The moment he turned around, everyone saw the blue light flashing in his eyes. This reminded everyone: the peace in the safe zone is maintained by strength.
At night, Zhang Chen was checking reports in his office when he heard the sound of children playing outside.
"The latest defense system has been installed," Yaer reported, "and it can automatically identify infected people."
"Very good." Zhang Chen looked out the window. "Seeing how carefree they are, I know we are on the right path."
"Yes," Yaer said with a smile, "Compared to those conspiracies and intrigues, open and aboveboard strength is more intimidating."
Zhang Chen stood up and looked into the distance: "Darkness will always exist, but as long as we are strong enough, it can only hide in the corner. This safe zone is the best proof."
Chapter 671 So Sweet
The cafeteria was filled with fragrance in the early morning. Zhang Chen rolled up his sleeves and prepared breakfast with a few girls.
"Chief Zhang, the dough has risen!" Xiao Qi shouted excitedly. She was a new refugee and she didn't expect the legendary chief to be so approachable.
“Don’t call me Chief,” Zhang Chen smiled and kneaded the dough, “Just call me by my name.”
Yaer was cutting vegetables on the side, watching Zhang Chen's skilled movements: "I didn't expect you to be so good at kneading dough."
"To survive," Zhang Chen said as he patted the dough, "you need to know a little bit about everything. By the way, Yue'er, is that enough seasoning?"
"Don't worry!" Yue'er was cooking, the spatula flying, "I'm cooking according to the proportions."
The cafeteria was filled with laughter.
Zhang Chen instructs the new girls on cooking skills from time to time, and the atmosphere is relaxed and pleasant.
"Hey, do you know?" Xiao Qi gossiped while rolling out the dough, "I heard that Ya'er has a crush on our leader."
"Ah?" Yaer's hand trembled and she almost cut her finger.
Zhang Chen pretended not to hear, but the corners of his mouth slightly raised. Yue'er immediately followed up: "That's right! The day before yesterday I saw him standing at the door for a long time!"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Yaer blushed.
"Oh, Sister Yaer is shy!" the girls cheered.
Zhang Chen tried to smooth things over at the right time: "Alright, alright, just focus on cooking. If someone comes later and the meal isn't ready yet, let's see how you guys explain it."
"Zhang Chen, try this!" Yue'er suddenly brought a bowl of soup.
Zhang Chen took a sip and his eyes lit up: "Not bad! The ingredients are just right."
"Really?" Yue'er turned around happily, "Then I'll stew more!"
"By the way," Xiao Qi asked in a low voice, "Why does Chief Zhang cook for himself?"
Yaer explained: "Because he thinks cooking together is the best way to bring people closer. Here, everyone is equal."
Zhang Chen nodded as he kneaded the dough: "It doesn't matter who is superior or not. Being able to eat a hot meal and see everyone's happy smiles, this is the most important thing."
At this time, there was a noise outside. It turned out that the residents came here to smell the fragrance.
"Wow! Chief Zhang is cooking again!"
"Great! Chief Zhang's hand-rolled noodles are the best!"
"I want a double!"
Zhang Chen smiled and shook his head: "Don't push, don't push, everyone has a share. Come, Xiaoqi, I'll teach you the trick of cooking noodles..."
The sunlight came in through the window, shining on the busy people.
At this moment, the haze of the end of the world seems very far away.
Here there are only warm smiles, sweet food, and full of human touch...
As night fell, a thick blanket was spread on the rooftop. Zhang Chen and Ya'er lay side by side, looking at the starry night sky. The occasional footsteps of the patrol team could be heard in the distance, making this moment particularly quiet.
"Do you remember the first time we met?" Yaer asked softly with gentle eyes.
"Of course I remember," Zhang Chen smiled, "You held a broken notebook and said you wanted to save me."
"I was so nervous at that time," Yaer turned her head to look at his profile, "I was afraid that I would mispronounce a word and mess up your runes."
"I'm actually very curious," Zhang Chen turned sideways to face her, "Why did you save me at that time?"
Under the moonlight, Yaer's face flushed slightly: "Actually... from the first time I saw your name in the research materials, I felt... that this person must be extraordinary."
"Is it that simple?" Zhang Chen raised his eyebrows.
"And..." Yaer bit her lip, "When I first saw you from afar, you were imprisoned, but your eyes were so determined. I knew that you were different from them."
Zhang Chen reached out and stroked her cheek: "Did you guess right?"
"Hmm..." Yaer moved closer, "It's better than I thought."
The night breeze blows gently, bringing the fragrance of distant meadows.
"To be honest," Zhang Chen sighed, "sometimes I wonder, if you hadn't shown up..."
"Shh," Yaer placed her fingers gently on his lips, "Don't think about that. The important thing is that we are together now."
"Yaer..." Zhang Chen stared into her eyes, which seemed to contain the entire starry sky.
"You know what," Yaer suddenly laughed, "the girls in the cafeteria are right, I do..."
Before she finished speaking, Zhang Chen had already kissed her lips, gently and restrainedly, as if he was tasting the most precious delicacy in the world.
After a long while, the two separated. Yaer leaned in Zhang Chen's arms, listening to his strong heartbeat.
"From now on," Zhang Chen said softly, "we will protect this pure land together."
"Well," Yaer held his hand, "no matter what happens, I will be with you."
As the night deepened, the runes in the distance still glowed brightly.
In this rare moment of tranquility in the end times, the two hearts are finally no longer lonely.
Nothing is warmer and more worth cherishing than this moment...
In the cafeteria in the morning, Yaer was wearing a simple white T-shirt and jeans, but she was radiant. Her plain face was slightly flushed, and her eyes were shining with happiness.
"Oh," Xiaoqi came over and blinked her big eyes, "Sister Yaer looks especially beautiful today!"
"Yes, yes," Yue'er also cheered, "You are so beautiful even without makeup. It seems you slept well last night!"
Yaer lowered her head to cut vegetables, her ears turned red: "Don't talk nonsense..."
"Tsk, you're still pretending!" Hongdou came over with a basin in her hand. "I was on night duty last night, but I saw you and Chief Zhang staying on the rooftop until very late!"
"What?" The other girls immediately gathered around:
"Tell me quickly, what happened?"
"Is this a confession?"
"No wonder Sister Yaer walked with such a breeze today!"
"Stop... stop making trouble," Ya'er said in a panic, "I'm going to make breakfast soon..."
At this time, Zhang Chen walked in, and the girls immediately scattered. But they could still be heard whispering:
"See? Chief Zhang's eyes are wide open!"
"Yes, yes, I've never seen him look at anyone so tenderly!"
"Ah! How sweet!"
Zhang Chen pretended not to hear and walked to Yaer: "Do you need help?"
"No... no need," Ya'er's voice was as soft as a mosquito, "I can do it myself..."
Zhang Chen took the kitchen knife from her naturally: "Let's do it together."
When his fingers accidentally touched Yaer's hand, the girls let out a suppressed scream.
"Ouch!" Xiao Qi covered her eyes exaggeratedly, "It's too dazzling!"
"That's right!" Yue'er pursed her lips and smiled secretly, "This is the sour smell of love!"
Zhang Chen turned around and deliberately put on a stern face: "Why, you don't want to eat breakfast?"
"I want to eat, I want to eat!" The girls laughed.
Yaer secretly glanced at Zhang Chen and found that he was also smiling. The sun shone through the window, shining on the two of them, and even the air seemed to be filled with a sweet smell.
"Actually..." Xiao Qi whispered to Yue Er, "I think Chief Zhang and Sister Ya Er are a perfect match."
Chapter 672 Was the previous camp very bad?
"Of course!" Yue Er nodded proudly, "If we hadn't been bringing them together every day, how could they have gotten together so quickly?"
"Hey," Hongdou suddenly remembered something, "On the rooftop last night, what on earth did they..."
"That's enough!" Ya'er finally couldn't help it, her face red as a ripe apple, "If you say that again, forget about having breakfast!"
Zhang Chen watched her shy appearance from the side, and his heart softened. Such daily life, such playfulness, and such pure happiness were exactly what he tried so hard to protect...
In the courtyard in the afternoon, Yaer was conscientiously cooking a pot of chicken soup. The rich aroma wafted from the pot, attracting the passing girls to turn their heads frequently.
