Chapter 1428: Official Meeting
Wang Jian’s words made many people hesitate, because he was right. Even though they hadn’t been informed that they were living together with zombies, it was undeniable that their lives had been safe and comfortable during the past two years. The living condition in the base was not bad, and in fact, was growing better and better. If they left this base for another base, they would certainly need to face a much harder living condition.
That risk was even bigger for the commoners.
“Some of you just said that we’re keeping zombies,” said Lin Feng, “That is wrong. They built this base, so they are the true owners of this base. You are living in their place. Some of you are worried that you might be fed to zombies. Let me ask you something. Has this base ever limited your freedom? Have any residents in this base disappeared without a trace? Have they done anything to harm you? They are zombies indeed, but they aren’t like the zombies out there. They don’t need to feed on your blood and flesh, and neither do they need to replenish themselves with your energy nuclei. They used to be our families and friends. They have turned into zombies, and to protect us, they built a base. Some of the residents of Base Number Two might be your very own families or friends who have died once.”
His words successfully made everyone quiet down. Earlier, people were agitated because they suddenly learned that they had been living together with zombies for two years without being informed about that. They hadn’t thought about the quality of the life that they had been living during the past two years. Now, upon hearing the words of Lin Feng and Wang Jian, they instantly hesitated.
Before they thought it through, Lin Feng continued, “Anyhow, I accounted for the truth today because I want you guys to allow yourselves to make choices. You can choose to stay or leave. For the ones who intend to leave, please do not come back once you leave. For the ones who are willing to stay, you are, of course, welcome. Someone just asked me about oursituation and that of the residents of Base Number Two. I can only tell you that they and us, we are all equal.”
“What if they lost control and attacked us humans? Will you be able to stop them from doing that?” Someone had their attitudes changed. They asked the most important question about living together with zombies.
Zombies fed on humans; that was in their nature. They could hardly control themselves.
“We have rules for you, and we also have rules for them. The ones who violate the rules will be punished,” Lin Feng answered the questions seriously.
“Don’t believe them! They’re all liars! We’re all equal? That’s a lie!” The man first to suggest to leave said loudly with anger. He had noticed that some of the people on his side had started to hesitate.
“Believe us or not, that’s your own decision to make,” said Lin Feng, “We won’t force you to believe us.”
Dong Xinxin exchanged glances with the three boys, saying, “We had brought up a condition when we joined the base: They can’t kick us out no matter what happens. I believe in Wenwen. She must have kept the secret from us for a reason. I’ll talk to her about it, and I’ll stay. What about you guys?”
“I’ll do whatever you say.” Dong Lijia showed no sign of objecting. “I wasn’t expecting that those people are zombies! I’m suddenly so curious about them! What made them be almost like humans? They behave and think like humans. How did that happen?”
He was greatly curious about that. And weirdly, he felt no fear or repulsion at all. Maybe it was because Lin Wenwen had warned him at the very beginning. Lin Wenwen and her brothers seemed to be in a very close relationship with Base Number Two, or else she wouldn’t try so hard to defend them.
The brother and sister looked at Deng Chenfei and Luo Yuanjun, waiting for their response.
Luo Yuanjun rested a hand on his waist, holding his chin with the other hand while saying, “Seriously, I’m also curious about them. This base has been peaceful the whole time, hasn’t it? Base Number Two has been quite mysterious, yet its residents often show up in the base! If Lin Feng gives us more details about Base Number Two and lets us meet its residents officially, I won’t mind staying here. Besides, we’ve spent so many years waiting for Wenwen. It’d be embarrassing if we got kicked out so soon, right?”
During the past seven years, he and his people had rejected Wu Chengyue’s invitation countless times. If they ended up being kicked out of All Beings Base only a few months after they joined it, they would become a total joke.
Having finished talking, he turned to Deng Chenfei. “Stay,” Deng Chenfei said with a cold, expressionless face. To be honest, he was curious as well!
At that moment, Wang Jian looked at the man who had been shouting about leaving and said, “He’s right. So, to prove that you’re not lying to us, please ask the leaders of Base Number Two to meet with us officially. Also, I’d like to know which side the Chief of this base belongs to.”
“This base has one Chief only. Both Base Number One and Base Number Two belong to her,” a silvery voice was heard. Next, a few figures showed up beside Lin Feng and his people.
The one talking was Qiu Lili, wearing a white dress, a pair of white shoes, and a two-meter-long ponytail. Standing on the podium, she raised her chin and took off her sunglasses, showing her black eyes that had ruby-like, glowing pupils.
“I’m Qiu Lili from Base Number Two. I’m a level-seven zombie, the commander of Unit One of the army in Base Number Two.”
From behind her, Yun Meng stepped forward. The dark green military suit made her look much more serious than usual. Her short hair were neatly cut, and her comely face was perfectly clean. She took off her sunglasses and said with a peaceful tone, “Yun Meng, level-seven. The commander of Unit Two from Base Number Two.”
Standing behind them, Lin Kui and the others stayed silent, because only the two girls and Xie Dong had official posts in the army. Xie Dong wasn’t in the base at the moment.
As Yun Meng finished talking, Lin Jing, Yan Xiao, Jingyan, and the others all took off their sunglasses. The group of high-leveled zombies stood on the podium and released their vibes, which immediately suppressed the vibes of Lin Feng and his people.
Seeing those formally-dressed, perfectly clean, high-leveled zombies standing there with a mighty vibe, the people on the scene were all stunned. The unrestrained vibe of top-leveled zombies wasn’t something that medium-leveled superpower possessors and commoners could stand after all.
