Base L was not very large and only half a dozen teams were selected each day to go out. They were currently counting the number of people and doing their final weapon and equipment inspection.

Jiang Congyun was in poor health and did not participate but Jing Xiubai and Yu Xiang naturally joined the surviving soldiers and followed everyone to the outside. While the heroine couldn’t go out, she would accompany them every day to the edge of the city wall and watch them leave.

“Is the ammunition full?” She asked with worry.

“Don’t worry.” Yu Xiang answered.

Jiang Congyun sighed softly: “If only we had the space…”

When her voice fell, several gasps sounded and Xiao Li looked straight at the door with bright eyes. Chi Xin strode in, ignoring all the various gazes, and walked to Cao Yan: “I want to join a team.”

She talked as she took things for granted but of course, no one doubted her ability. Cao Yan was at first surprised then happily replied: “Great! Xiubai’s team is going to the former armory in L City today. There are many zombies that used to be soldiers, if you join them it should go smoother!”

There was actually… such a coincidence? Chi Xin and Jing Xiubai looked at each other and the hero nodded. Chi Xin felt a little bit embarrassed, she had not expected to encounter such a difficult mission the first time she took the initiative to leave the base. But it wasn’t like she could change her mind and she calmly agreed.

This team’s task today was very dangerous and the members were all strong men and as soon as Chi Xin stood with them, it suddenly looked like all the stars cupped themselves around the moon1 and the whole picture changed.

Yu Xiang whistled: “I gotta say, I feel more at ease now that you’re here.”

Chi Xin didn’t bother to pay attention to him.
Suddenly, Xiao Li uttered an objection: “Wait!”
Even though he was only a few steps away, he trotted over for fear of delaying the departure. He looked at Chi Xin nervously and said to Cao Yan: “I would like to apply for a change of team and join Jing Xiubai’s.”

His eyes were glued to Chi Xin; everybody knew it was her team he wanted to join. Everyone could read his heart and despite the tension before going out, there was a little uproar. Xiao Li blushed but kept staring at Chi Xin, as if Cao Yan’s consent didn’t matter. As soon as she gave her approval, he would immediately change teams.

Cao Yan was embarrassed: “This…”

Chi Xin said: “As one of the main combat forces, it’s better to not team up with me.” She looked at the big boy who was instantly disappointed and showed a little smile, “Besides, you are used to working with your teammates, aren’t you?”

Xiao Li was very reluctant but as the goddess had spoken, he couldn’t refute it.

“It takes time to add a new member to a team.” Jing Xiubai pushed his glasses and the reflection of the light on the lenses hid his eyes, “You can join for the next easier mission.”

This was true but no one had expected Jing Xiubai would actually speak to Chi Xin. Jiang Congyun glanced at him, a little disturbed and Xiao Li had to agree.

Seeing that Chi Xin had joined the hero’s team, the most excited was the system. At this moment, it was going crazy in Chi Xin’s head: 【The male lead and the second male lead are here. Host, your great opportunity has come!】

Chi Xin wilted: “Got it.”

If she had a choice, she really wanted to turn around and leave now. But if she didn’t go out today nor tomorrow, would she ever get the courage to face it later? Chi Xin picked out the already familiar Desert Eagle among the weapons and loaded the bullets in a daze. A few minutes later, five SUVs left Base L.
