Back to the Apocalypse

Chapter 59

Xiao Sa turned around to look at Wang Hongwei and calmly asked another question. "You mean to say that they robbed the police station and the military base?"

Wang Hongwei nodded quickly. He did not understand the reasoning behind Xiao Sa's words, but after a period of reflection, he had a vague idea in his heart. It would be great if he could stay with these people. Just by looking at their situation, with their weaponry, it was much safer to stay here than to follow their boss no matter how he looked at it. Once the threat of losing his life was removed, his thoughts turned much quicker and he was more open-minded, willing to speak without reservations. Little did he know, his fate had been decided up on early on.

Bai Jing was confused: "Since they robbed the police station, why are they still lusting over our weapons?"

Xiao Sa touched his head and did not speak, although he secretly scolded in his heart: Silly child, the arms that he smuggled were all high-end arms. Could they be compared with what ordinary police and the army could provide?

Everything that Wang Hongwei knew poured out of his mouth. He suppressed the pain in his arms, and his brain was very active as he spoke enough to fill up entire barrels. "What you don't know is that in our small county town, even if we have weapons, there is nothing with a wide range of attack. That woman gave a very exaggerated and colourful description, saying there were even submachine guns and grenades. The boss was really anxious listening to her. Otherwise, he would have killed her a long time ago. Once they discovered what direction you were headed in, the boss immediately ordered people to set up an ambush, and killed more than a dozen people to lure the zombies over."

Bai Jing was speechless. He just knew that women could not be underestimated. In order to live, they had at least a hundred little tricks, and sometimes they could even cause great chaos. However, at the end of the world, greedy people were everywhere. Even he could not help admiring the ambush that had been set up today. The boss was a real talent, but unfortunately his morality was not in the right place.

Xiao Sa was silent for a moment before asking Wang Hongwei about how many of them had abilities, what they were, and how many of them were level one ability users.

Wang Hongwei answered the questions one by one. There were a total of a hundred and nine people, of which seventy-two were ability users, and seven were first level ability users. The boss was a lightning user, and his deputy was an ice user, but he didn't know the rest since he had only joined the team recently, and had not entered the inner circle. The boss was cold-hearted and vicious, his means were cruel, using underhanded ways to kill people, and he was always on guard. Wang Hongwei spoke back and forth, and what had originally been an interrogation turned into a complaint session. He basically just spoke about how he was miserable, how he had been helpless, how he had been forced to join the gang of bandits, how bad the boss was, and how innocent he was...

Nobody paid any attention to his nonsense. They were only surprised to learn that there were seventy-two ability users in such as small group. But thinking about the existence of the Institute, it wasn't so strange. Since the army had been trying to capture people, there must have been more than a few ability users. They must have some strengths and advantages in order to rob the police station and occupy the military base.

"Oh, by the way, the nucleus in animals' brains seems to be able to help ability users advance. Other than weapons, the boss is also looking everywhere for those. When we found two of them two days ago, he took them away before they even had a chance to turn warm in my pocket..."

"How did they find out?" Bai Jing's gaze turned cold. The questions in his heart were cleared away in an instant – no wonder they would have level one ability users. Only, he remembered that in the past life, this kind of method only showed up one month later.
