Zombie Apocalypse: Reborn With A Farming Space-Chapter 243: Nothing Is Free In This World

Unexpectedly, when they arrived, Boss Lin and his team saw a man wearing a black tracksuit, holding a longsword covered in black flame, effortlessly killing the zombies with a slight smile on his handsome face.

Whenever he swung his longsword, several zombies would be beheaded or split into half. Black blood and rotten flesh scattered on the ground but none touched his clothes nor his body.

The moment they recognized him, Boss Lin and his team were stunned. They stood there, unmoving, watching him in awe.

Jin Xuyan had already noticed them when they appeared. When he saw their faces, he recognized one of them as his Ah Zhi's captain from her previous life.

While killing the zombies, he wondered what they were doing here and how fate could be so mysterious. Even though they had departed from the husbandries at different times, they were still able to meet here today.

Ten minutes later, all of the zombies were killed, and Jin Xuyan burned the corpses into piles of black ash. Before anyone could react, Xiao Qi had already collected all the crystal cores scattered on the ground, leaving none behind.

Qin Luzi walked over to his captain and scanned the area for a moment before saying, "Captain, there are no more zombies in this area. But the north and west areas have around 3,000 zombies in total. The east area has around 500."

Hearing this, Jin Xuyan nodded and said, "Take a ten-minute break. We will go to the east area first before cleaning up the rest."

"Understood," Qin Luzi nodded and went to inform the team.

Jin Xuyan swung his longsword to clean off the black blood and rotten flesh from the blade before sheathing it. He gave Boss Lin a glance before walking toward his girlfriend.

Standing in front of her, he noticed a thin layer of sweat on her forehead. He took a handkerchief from his pocket and gently wiped it while saying, "Ah Zhi, I saw Boss Lin and his team."

Hearing this, Jiao Lizhi paused her movement of cleaning her blade and looked at him. "They are here?" she asked.

Jin Xuyan nodded and asked her back, "Ah Zhi, should we send them and the others to the base?"

Jiao Lizhi thought for a moment and nodded. Sheathing her dagger, she said, "Since we want to help Captain Xun build the base, having more people is always a good thing."

"The ordinary people can help build the wall, and Boss Lin and his team can assist in clearing out the surrounding zombies."

Jin Xuyan nodded and said, "Then I will let Zhang Yuan handle it."

Knowing her boyfriend was the Lord of vinegar, Jiao Lizhi didn't insist on talking to Boss Lin herself and agreed to let him handle everything, "Okay."

Seeing how obedient she was, Jin Xuyan felt like his heart was soaked in honey. He always worried that she would disappear suddenly, and all of this was just a dream. Only when she treated him differently from everyone else did he feel a little bit of security.

After a moment, Jiao Lizhi took the handkerchief from his hand and helped wipe his sweat. Then, she pulled out a small bottle of water from her waist bag and said, "Brother Yan, drink some water."

"Thank you."

While the two were lost in their own world, Zhang Yuan had already walked over to the survivors and said, "Everyone, the number of zombies in this area is very high. I suggest you leave and find somewhere safe."

The moment the survivors heard his words, one of them protested, "Comrade, we came here first to look for supplies. You can't just force us to leave."

"I'm not forcing you to leave," Zhang Yuan replied expressionlessly.

"If you want to stay, you are free to do so. But my team won't protect you. And if you use us as a shield again, don't blame us for being ruthless," he added.

"Comrade, you are so strong. What's wrong with protecting us ordinary people?" another survivor asked shamelessly.

Standing nearby, Shen Jinzhe sneered and replied, "We are strong because we fought to get stronger. We don't owe you anything, and we are not obligated to protect you."

"If you insist on staying in this dangerous place, then you are responsible for your own safety. If you get killed by zombies, it's because of your own decision and because you didn't have the ability to protect yourself."

As soon as he finished, everyone's expressions changed. Some were angry as they found his words were too harsh, while others were embarrassed or even scared.

Noticing that the situation could escalate, Zhang Yuan shot Shen Jinzhe a glance. Seeing his vice captain's warning, Shen Jinzhe shrugged and walked off toward Feng Yun.

After sending the troublemaker away, Zhang Yuan turned to the survivors and said, "What he said was harsh, but it's the truth. If you can't get stronger and always rely on others, you won't survive."

A woman then asked, "Comrade, we are just ordinary people. How can we fight those monsters?"

Just then, Jin Xuyan walked over and said, "If you can't kill zombies, then you need to find another way to survive."

"There's a base two hours from here, built by a group of ability-users. They accept anyone, even ordinary people. You will be able to earn food and water as long as you are willing to work."

The survivors were stunned by his words. They had been driven out of government camps and other ability-user shelters for not being able to contribute anything. This news sounded too good to be true.

"Comrade, can we really go there and find shelter?" an old man asked.

Jin Xuyan looked at him and replied, "Nothing is free in this world." freēwēbnovel.com

Hearing this, the hope they had just regained began to shatter. But before they could fall into despair, he continued.

"At that base, you have to work to get paid. You can exchange your earnings for food, water, and even housing. Even if you can't kill zombies, you can contribute by helping the leaders build the base. They will assign you work based on what you can do."

After pausing, he added, "Even old people and children are accepted."
