Chapter 514 – A Ray of Hope

Editor: Zephyr04 Translator: Jhung

“Be… Because…”

As soon as Ye Lian spoke, a younger girl suddenly appeared from behind and covered her mouth with her hand.

“Wuu…”

“Sister Ye Lian…”

Shana tried hard to stay on her tiptoes as she clutched Ye Lian’s mouth. Under her confused eyes, Shana dragged her back to Ya Lin’s side.

The three female zombies suddenly formed a group, all of them were pleasing to the eye and were even more so when squeezed together…

Lucy had seen this scene many times. Although she didn’t know why Shana stopped Ye Lian from speaking, these girls never followed logic, so it’s useless to ask.

“Yeah, can zombies revert back to a human?”

Ling Mo glanced at Ye Lian, then immediately turned around and asked, “Based on this theory, it should be possible, right?”

“I… This… You should probably ask Jian Qi…”

Lucy’s heart suddenly sped up. Ling Mo wasn’t the only one that was excited.

If it really was possible, wouldn’t her mutating problem also be solved?

“Yeah, I’ll ask him about it then.”

Although Ling Mo was already a bit wary of Jian Qi, if he could help Ye Lian revert back to a human, then…

Lucy didn’t notice that Ling Mo was clenching his fist so hard that even his knuckles had turned white.

And within his eyes, there was a strange faint gleam…

“Finally… I see a ray of hope!”

…

“Is it really okay for us to just walk straight over there like this?”

Zhang Yu couldn’t help but ask as he looked at the approaching Air Force regiment.

He thought Wen Xuan would secretly come here first with a few people. On the one hand, it would let the people in FIRE understand their place. On the other hand, he could also help Ling Mo or settle things down through negotiations…

In short, Zhang Yu thought about many possibilities, but not the one in front of him.

Wen Xuan had brought over a group of people from FIRE, and then… they immediately set off to the Air Force regiment!

“It’s fine.” Wen Xuan insincerely made an “okay” gesture at Zhang Yu.

“IT’S FINE YOUR HEAD! I’m so fucked…”

However, even though he was reluctant on the surface, Zhang Yu still followed behind him.

He turned his head and made a gesture to the person behind him.

Everyone would immediately attack if anything went wrong…

“Someone is approaching!”

A soldier on the watchtower grabbed his walkie-talkie and shouted.

Ziz…Ziz…

A few seconds later, there was a response, “The leader says let them in.”

The soldier glanced suspiciously at the group, “Are they Survivors? Or some other group?”

But since the commander spoke, the soldier quickly raised the flag and shook it to signal the security team to let them in.

“They actually let us in!”

Zhang Yu looked back at Wen Xuan incredulously, and even Jian Qi, who was following the group, couldn’t help but look at Wen Xuan in amazement.

“But, even if we got in…” Tom said.

Wen Xuan thought about what Ling Mo said to him before, then smiled and said, “We’re going directly to see their leader.”

The arrival of this uninvited group actually didn’t raise any attention.

At this moment, all the people with a bit of power were crowded inside the conference room, arguing.

The leader wasn’t leaving his room, and nearly all of the captains were dead. Everyone could see there was a problem, but no one could figure out where the problem was.

“There’s basically no one left in the Captain Rank. Both the ground troops and air troops that went to pursue Ling Mo are missing. What the hell is our leader doing? He’s not even dealing with it at all!” A man leaning against the wall shouted with displeasure.

“Those fuckers. I’ve always hated them in the first place. They think they’re the boss just because they were in the Air Force regiment earlier. Those of us who joined later couldn’t climb up the ranks no matter how hard we tried. We finally had Li Hao, but he was over in a blink of an eye. FUCK!” Another man cursed, “Who knows what the leader is thinking? Letting things escalate like this…”

“Who the fuck are you scolding! What’s wrong with the original members of the Air Force regiment? Perhaps someone is trying to take advantage of the situation and rebel!”

A pilot slapped the table and jumped straight up.

A circle of people immediately surrounded him, and they were all old members of the Air Force regiment.

The crowd immediately separated into two groups, both on opposite sides.

Meanwhile, Wen Xuan and his party had already arrived in front of their leader’s office.

“Seriously…”

Zhang Yu wanted to say something else, but when he thought about how easily their group passed the entrance inspection or that they arrived at the leader’s office without any problems, he couldn’t find anything else to say…

He was his subordinate, yet also Wen Xuan’s friend. Although he was worried about his captain’s passion for courting disaster, Zhang Yu still supported Wen Xuan dring the most critical moments.

However, Jian Qi was different. Throughout the whole way, he only wore a slight smile on his face.

“Interesting…” Jian Qi stared at the office door, and a strange color flashed in his eyes.

“Um…”

Wen Xuan stopped at the door and grabbed some of his messy hair before saying, “I’ll go in since I’m the representative.”

He turned around and glanced at Jian Qi. Those eyes, which always seemed a bit crazy, suddenly became cold for a moment, “We have already negotiated a deal, so please wait here Mr. Jian[1].”

“Uh, okay… wait, who are you calling Mr. Jian! You did that on purpose…”

By the time Jian Qi reacted, Wen Xuan had already entered and closed the door behind him.

“Just wait.”

Zhang Yu uttered angrily and leaned against the door with his arms folded.

This action made it clear that Jian Qi wasn’t allowed to come any closer…

Jian Qi stared at the door for a while, then slowly stepped back and leaned against the wall.

As soon as Wen Xuan entered, the situation in the Air Force regiment quietly underwent earth-shattering changes…

…

The transfer of power isn’t something easy to do, yet it also isn’t that hard.

Half an hour later, the people inside the conference room finally selected a few representatives. However, they didn’t expect to face a dozen guns the moment they opened the doors.

After finishing the conversation with the leader, Wen Xuan brought his group and arrived at the large conference room.

Although the people inside the room were all sitting on chairs, they were all sweating profusely.

Inside the Air Force regiment, who would be fully armed?

No one thought that a group of strangers would suddenly appear and arrest them.

“BANG!”

The door of the room was kicked open by Zhang Yu. These people looked at their leader and Wen Xuan as they sat at the head of the table and suddenly realized that things seemed to be developing in a direction they didn’t expect…

Wen Xuan unceremoniously brought out the Falcon’s name and gave out his demands.

And Jian Qi, as the representative of the FIRE group, also said a few words.

The two major forces, coupled with the cooperation of the regiment commander, didn’t have a hard time taking over the chaotic Air Force regiment.

Under the effects of coercion and lure, these small bosses quickly expressed their desires for cooperation…

“I already got in touch with the General Staff using our communication device. We’ll use the helicopter here to transfer a group of people to station them in the Air Force regiment. Then we’ll transfer some of the uncooperative Air Force regiment people to the Falcon camp. The isolation zone in X-City has just finished building, so it’s a great time to let them contribute to the survival of ordinary survivors…”

Wen Xuan tapped his fingers on the desk and said.

“Before all this happens…” Jian Qi turned around and glanced at the door behind him. There was a separate room in the large conference room. “Those small bosses will always be under house arrest, right?”

“These people were only following orders and obeying them. To them, a change of leadership is nothing. Plus, I don’t think it’s a bad thing for them to merge with our Falcons.” Zhang Yu interrupted.

“What an ingenious idea…”

Jian Qi stared at Wen Xuan and smiled indifferently.

This lunatic, he really underestimated him.

But what made him even more concerned was the “leader” that always kept his head down.

At first glance, it seemed like he had been coerced and had to compromise, and was even destined to have a miserable ending.

But…

“Things are really interesting..”

Jian Qi stared at the leader and Ling Mo’s figure suddenly appeared in front of him…

[1] – Jian sounds close to another word that means cheap. Basically, Yu Wen Xuan is making fun of him, calling him a cheap person.
