Chapter 423 - Seeking Relatives

“Let us kill our way out and meet up with Lord Liu’s battalion!”
“NO! They are already fighting them!”
“It is definitely one-sided!”
“One-sided? Is Lord Liu in danger?”
“What? Use your eyes! Lord Liu is massacring the zombies! It looks as easy as if he was cutting grass!”
“Impossible…? Those are Black-Spot Variants! Not regular zombies!”
“...”
The dialogue was between the players in the prison compound who were on guard duty. It was a hot debate, since they couldn’t keep up with the movements of the higher-level players. From the moment the Variants clashed against the oncoming players, body parts were flying. All of the limbs were from the Black-Spot Variants. The elite battalion was unstoppable, especially with Liu Gan spearheading the frontline. The golden ray trailing behind his Crescent Blade ability cut through the bodies of the Variants like moldy cheese.
Zhang Sheng Li and the others within the prison compound would take hours to slaughter one Black-Spot Variant. However, Liu Gan was breaking through the zombies like twigs. To describe Liu Gan as cutting through tofu with a knife wasn’t an accurate depiction. It would be an injustice to Liu Gan, since that would mean the Variants were putting up some sort of resistance.
In a short half-hour, the elite battalion cleared up several thousand Black-Spot Variants surrounding the prison. Liu Gan walked up to the prison compound, and Zhang Sheng Li ran out to greet him with welcome arms.
“Lord Liu! It’s all my fault. I’m useless! I nearly lost us the prison compound due to my incompetence!” Zhang Sheng Li rushed over to beg for mercy.
“It is nothing big, even if you lost it, that is fine. It is only one small compound, it doesn’t amount to much. In the near future, the entire island will be ours!” Liu Gan patted Zhang Sheng Li reassuringly on the shoulder.
After leveling up, certain priorities had to be reevaluated. Resources that were once worth dying for, like the base, were no longer so important. It wasn’t even worth mentioning after becoming stronger.
During his absence, those at the prison compound hadn’t just sat around idly. The serving leader, Zhang Sheng Li, had made it to level 8. However, of the 800 elites with Liu Gan, 200 members were at that level, too.
Over this long period of leadership, Zhang Sheng Li had conquered several bases and annexed players and survivors from those camps. At present, the prison compound had a population of around 500. At most the prison compound could hold 200 people, so the remaining 300 people were relocated to the reserve depot. Both locations were overrun by the corpse tide, so they were trapped in their own base. The people in the depot had to move deeper underground to lock themselves in.
With Han Guang Ming’s assistance, Lin Shi Ya found Treadmill and asked him about updates regarding her father, Lin Feng. Treadmill hadn’t seen Lin Feng after that last time they had met over half a month ago.
“SISTER!” Ling Ling suddenly shouted as she ran toward a lady nearby.
At this time, Zhou Jing Jing heard a familiar shout, and turned to look where it came from. To her astonishment, she saw Ling Ling racing over.
“Sister…” Ling Ling rushed over to hug Zhou Jing Jing.
“Get away! How are you… still alive? Didn’t you die?” Zhou Jing Jing shoved Ling Ling away instinctively. She gave Ling Ling a perplexed stare.
“I… I…” LingLing stuttered, she didn’t understand how her older sister could do that to her.
