Chapter 184: 163: There’s an Armored Car?_1



“They claim they have armored vehicles, which seems about right, otherwise they wouldn’t have been able to expand so quickly,” explained Li Yahong.

Her explanation made sense, as it would be challenging to grow so rapidly with just one person possessing Superpower.

They also established a free market, inviting the surrounding survivor bases to trade.

They likely obtained a considerable amount of modern equipment.

When it comes to normal combat strength, zombies are not that powerful.

Even second-level Mutated Zombies find it hard to gain much combat advantage when faced with modern weaponry.

Giant zombies rushing out would be quickly turned to mush under concentrated military fire.

It’s easy to understand why zombies have an advantage under the present circumstances.

Large-scale indiscriminate zombie outbreaks.

This quickly plunged human society into paralysis.

If it were a normal battle, on one side would be zombie hordes and on the other a modern human army.

A fair and just duel.

Zombies are unlikely to hold any significant advantage, even if their virus could spread.

But that’s not how things unfolded.

No one was going to fight a fair and just duel with you.

“How do we trade for those armored vehicles?” Wu Heng was also somewhat interested.

“They didn’t specify, but based on current exchange terms, they mostly trade food,” Li Yahong thought for a moment and replied.

“Hmm,” Wu Heng replied, not saying much else.

Li Yahong continued, “Wang Chenggang has ingested a level one Corpse Core.”

“Who?”

“The bearded leader of those guys from the Changying Area asylum,” she clarified.

“Oh, him! Has he awakened his Superpower?”

Li Yahong had become the leader of the car repair factory, as it was initially her family’s business.

The others were all saved by her.

After meeting Wu Heng, she became a coordinator and was fully affirmed as the leader.

The Changying Area asylum had more people at its peak – reaching seventy to eighty. Strength speaks the loudest in a diverse group of people.

Wang Chenggang was able to become a leader.

Both luck and strength put him among the elite.

Without Wu Heng and his group of Skeletons, he would make a more suitable leader for the asylum.

However, with Wu Heng here, having the upper hand,

Li Yahong was the leader.

“He took a level one Corpse Core and did not awaken a Superpower. I heard he was unconscious for several days, his hands and feet were tied, and he almost starved to death by the time he woke up,” said Li Yahong.

“It seems he is quite physically resilient.”

“Yes, Qiangzi said that only the chosen ones can awaken Superpowers.”

Wu Heng looked at her and asked, “Do you also want to awaken a Superpower?”

“Well, I don’t know. I actually envy those who can stand alone and become powerful. But, I feel that if I ingest a Corpse Core, I might turn into a zombie. My family preferred boys over girls when I was young, and made me quit school early to fix cars. I never got lucky when it came to game draws; I don’t think I have such a blessing,” Li Yahong said self-mockingly.

Seemingly, Wang Chenggang’s experience had put pressure on her.

In this post-apocalyptic world, strength is crucial.

Although Wu Heng trusted her, she also needed to earn some respect.

However, her self-confidence was not that high.

“In a few days, I will help you ingest a Corpse Core to see if you can awaken a Superpower,” Wu Heng thought for a moment and then said.

Li Yahong looked up at him, somewhat surprised.

She had indeed helped Wu Heng obtain quite a few Corpse Cores.

But, her roles had only been that of a driver and guide; she had no right to divide them.

Since they were talking about it now, she just wanted to vent, but she did not expect him to readily agree to let her ingest a Corpse Core.

“No need, given my physical condition and luck, chances are I won’t survive it,” Li Yahong politely declined.

“Start exercising intensively these next few days, I’ll let you know when it’s time,” Wu Heng said decisively.

As the base population increased, managing it was becoming increasingly challenging.

Furthermore, Wu Heng needed to spend most of his time in another world. If Li Yahong did not have a certain level of strength, problems would easily arise.

Even without outside interference, people inside may harbor thoughts of seizing power.

There were quite a few Corpse Cores accumulated with him.

Giving them to individuals who can assist would not be a waste.

So, letting her improve her personal strength, even if it does not substantially boost combat power, ingesting a Corpse Core would give the impression that she is a person favored by destiny and courage in the eyes of the survivors.

No one wants to follow someone too mediocre.

If Li Yahong lacked the talent to awaken her superpower, he could consider buying her a scroll for a profession.

However, this step would require 100% trust from her.

At least after getting a new slave scroll, he would choose to let her use it.

People’s hearts can change.

He would have to be careful.

Wu Heng pondered about it briefly.

Li Yahong hesitated, then said, “Alright, then. Thank you.”

“Hmm!”

“By the way, it’s already autumn. I plan to have some people make a batch of cotton clothes and quilts. We have quite a few sewing machines.”

“Wouldn’t it be more convenient to gather some ready-made stuff in the outside stores?” Wu Heng pondered.

“We need to scavenge, but we also need some to block the doors and windows. There won’t be any heating when winter comes.”

Wu Heng agreed with her reasoning.

“Okay, go ahead and make the arrangements!”

The two of them chatted for a while before leaving the prison grounds together.

Behind the prison was an endless empty lot.

Now, it was covered with weeds as tall as a man’s waist.

Wu Heng glanced at the expanse of the field.

He commanded the horde of skeletons that were following him, “Start cutting the grass.”

Whosh~

The mass of skeletons sprang into action.

With kitchen knives in hand, they rushed into the field, slashing wildly at the grass.

Since they had moved here,

They need to demarcate an area for the skeletons to train.

Besides using the spears, they need to train in spear-throwing as well. There wasn’t enough space within the prison for that, but this open field would do.

In no time, the weeds had been cut.

He asked Li Yahong to have people bundle the grass into straw dummies for spear practice.

The rest of the skeletons began practicing spear-throwing.

The next day, in the morning.

Wu Heng received the intelligence that Wen Mansha had sent him.

There were traces of a wanted criminal in a building in the outer districts of the city.

Wu Heng packed up his items,

He quickly headed to the Association, gathered his team, and directly went to the outer districts to investigate their target.

In the piss-stench filled dim alleyway,

They silently stared at the building across the street.

Before long, Glenda flew back into his body.

The scene he saw was shared in his mind.

In the dim room,

A few human men were sitting at a wooden table. One of them was muttering as he distributed money to the others.

It seemed as if they had just finished a task and were now dividing the spoils.

Four were distributing the spoils and another one was standing at the door.

Wu Heng took out his tablet, compared it to the wanted list, and recognized one of them.

The bounty was 370 silver coins.

“Boss, what’s the situation?” Duke asked as he covered his nose.

“Minor wanted criminal, the bounty is only 370 silver coins.”

“Boss, it’s not a small sum. Some other small teams wouldn’t even catch a wanted criminal in half a year,” Duke continued.

“Alright! Then let’s act. We’ll barge in and wipe them out.”

“Okay.”

The group quickly walked to the front door.

Duke raised his battle axe, ready to smash the door.

Wu Heng stopped him, simply saying: “Open the door.”

The invisible Glenda passed through the wall, directly Possessing the man guarding the door.

Under the surprised gazes of the people in the room,

The door was unlocked, revealing those waiting outside.

“Ahh!”

Duke yelled and charged in.
