Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse-Chapter 334 - 3834: By Coincidence

Chapter 334: Chapter 3834: By Coincidence

Because the car was blocking the way, Su Xiangzhe had to stop the car.

It was already autumn, yet a man with his upper body bare got out of that car. Though his muscles seemed pretty impressive, wasn’t he cold without a shirt?

Could it be that he had no clothes to wear?

The man rubbed the back of his head, checked the rear tire of his car, and then looked apologetically at the two cars behind him as if he were saying sorry.

As soon as the cars stopped, the zombies swarmed around them. The man seemed to want to come over to greet them, but a Fire Element Mutated Zombie cut off his path, and so a fight broke out between the man and the zombie in front of the two cars.

Oh.

...

Su Jin sighed. She had hoped to get back early, but it looked like they had to clear out zombies again.

When someone got out of the car, the man thrust an Ice blade into the zombie’s head and then froze the ground around him, causing a circle of zombies to slip and fall.

He then slid across the ice towards a family’s direction.

“Sorry for blocking your way,”

The shirtless man said as he skated up to the family, seemingly showing off his muscles intentionally or unintentionally.

The crowd: …

“No worries, I’ll clear these zombies out in a bit, just hang on a sec,”

Although the man spoke as if he was talking to himself, he turned around and started slaughtering the surrounding zombies.

The family naturally didn’t just stand by and wait for someone else to kill the zombies; they, too, began to fight.

Lin Xiuyuan kept his eyes on the man, wondering how someone with the same Ice Element could be so flashy.

He can even skate…

“Really an eyesore,” Lin Xiuyuan said.

While everyone else dressed as heavily as possible to avoid being touched by zombies, this man wore nothing on his upper body. Wasn’t he afraid of being grabbed?

“He has a layer of ice on his body; the zombies probably can’t break through it,”

Su Jin observed, then commented.

The zombies on the road weren’t many and they cleared them all within fifteen minutes.

It turned out that the man was trying to reach a nearby base, but he had been tricked out of his car and luggage earlier, leaving him with only a nearly junked car which he was driving when it broke down before reaching the base.

Learning that Su Xiangzhe and the others were heading to the base, the man clasped his hands together pleadingly and said, “Please give me a lift. I’ll pay for the ride.”

After speaking, he took out a Crystal Core from his trouser pocket and made to hand it to Su Xiangzhe.

Su Xiangzhe turned to look at Su Jin; their car could indeed take one more person. Seeing Su Jin nod, Su Xiangzhe accepted the Crystal Core and said, “Come aboard.”

The man, named Zeng Xiang, was very talkative. As soon as he got into the car, he started conversing with Lin Xiuyuan.

He had been traveling with a group of teammates previously.

After encountering a horde of zombies, only he and a mother and daughter who had hidden themselves remained from his team. Originally, he had intended to split their supplies and part ways since he did not get along well with the duo. Unexpectedly, they accused him of wanting to abandon them with no care.

After a huge argument, the mother and daughter took advantage of him sleeping and drove away with the team’s supplies and the only car left. He managed to follow them quickly, hitting one of them in the shoulder.

“That… I want to ask, what are the names of that mother and daughter?”

Su Jin remembered the Liu Meifang and the two she met in the hospital the day before; it couldn’t be such a coincidence…

“Liu Meifang and Cui Xiaoya,”

the man said through gritted teeth.

“…”

Lin Xiuyuan couldn’t help but burst out laughing; it was indeed an extreme coincidence. Today, Lu Guanhai and Nie Qing were sitting in the car behind; otherwise, he really wanted to ask for his feelings on this.

“Do you know them?”

The man asked in surprise.

“No, they wanted to claim kinship with us yesterday,”

Lu Hao immediately replied.

“That’s good then. Those two have been mooching food and drink all along the way; you guys really need to keep your distance from them.”

Knowing that Liu Meifang and her daughter were just in the S-city Base, the man grew even more eager to go there; he definitely had to settle accounts with that mother and daughter!

Su Jin also felt relieved; she had been worried Liu Meifang would continue to bother their family, but it seemed this time they had found something else to occupy them.

“Did they also take your clothes? Do you need me to find some clothes for you?”

Lin Xiuyuan asked.

“No, it’s not that. I just don’t like wearing shirts by personal preference. Don’t you think my physique is great?” Zeng Xiang said with a laugh.

“…”

That really was a peculiar preference; Lin Xiuyuan felt goosebumps, suddenly not wanting to sit together with this person anymore.

The spectacular base of S-city even made Zeng Xiang exclaim its greatness.

“This is hundreds of times more impressive than the E-city Base!!” Zeng Xiang exclaimed.

“You came from E-city?”

Su Jin immediately asked after hearing him.

“Sort of. I stayed there for a month, didn’t like it much, so I left with some people,” Zeng Xiang replied.

As they had to wait outside the base for two hours, Su Jin and Lu Hao also asked him more about E-city.

“You’re planning to go there? Better not!”

Zeng Xiang advised; this place is so much better than the E-city Base.

“We’re going there to find someone, then we’ll come back,” Lu Hao said.

Makes sense. Zeng Xiang no longer tried to dissuade them and started telling them about E-city.

The current Base Leader of E-city was a Level Five Metal Element Ability User. Although he was quite powerful, he had absolutely no real authority, not even over the military. The authority of E-city’s research institute was even higher than that of the Base Leader, and even the security forces inside the base obeyed the research institute’s orders.

“Everything inside the base is expensive, not just housing but also the prices of goods, and many people starve to death inside, but I heard those who die never show up again; it’s quite terrifying,”

Zeng Xiang said earnestly. He was a Ice Element at Level Three but always felt like he couldn’t make it in that base, so he simply took off while out on a mission with others.

It turned out that the base wasn’t free to enter and exit; only teams with missions were allowed to go through the main gate.

“What kind of crappy base is this, Xiao Jin, maybe you guys shouldn’t go,”

Lin Cheng couldn’t help but say; not even being able to freely enter or exit the main gate, this was no kind of base.

Su Jin genuinely didn’t know these details; in her past life, she had only just arrived at that base not long before meeting Chen Xiarong.

So if they wanted to leave E-city Base, did they need to form a team and take on a mission first?

“Don’t worry, Uncle, we will figure it out,”

Su Jin consoled, having accepted a mission already; there certainly was no reason to turn back now.

The group further discussed some precautions for S-city Base with Zeng Xiang, and after entering the base, they bid each other farewell.

“Thank you all; I’ll find a way to express my gratitude later,”

Zeng Xiang said happily.

Now that they were in the same base, they were sure to run into each other in the future; he felt very satisfied with himself for having survived and made it to this base, instinctively flexing his abs even more proudly.
