MTLNOVEL Chapter 758: Arriving at the Military Base, Luo Guozhong Lives
The mutiny of the Third-Stage Zombie Lord caught everyone at the military base off guard.
But before they could react, two strange red lasers appeared in the sky. The beams shot straight into the zombie herd, instantly killing countless zombies!
Only then did they realize that the terrifying beams were emitted by a human, who was hovering in the air!
...
The battle ended abruptly, and amidst the shocked and bewildered expressions of those at the military base, Wang Tao slowly descended in front of them.
"Hello everyone, I'm Wang Tao, from Bai Hao's convoy."
Wang Tao greeted them with a cheerful smile.
"Are you... that Wang Tao?!"
Upon hearing Wang Tao's words, someone suddenly exclaimed.
Wang Tao turned his head and saw a familiar face, and his own face instantly beamed even brighter.
"Colonel Luo Guozhong, it's been a long time!"
"It's really you!"
Luo Guozhong was full of disbelief.
Previously, when he was dropping supplies from an aircraft, Wang Tao had communicated with him via radio. Wang Tao said he'd met him, but Luo Guozhong didn't remember Wang Tao's name at that time and didn't delve into it. Now, this was their first meeting.
He could never have imagined that the survivor he met back then had turned into such a terrifying Ability User!
In fact, if Wang Tao hadn't actively called out his name, he wouldn't have dared to believe it was Wang Tao...
"Haha, it's me!"
Wang Tao walked over with big strides and hugged Luo Guozhong, feeling somewhat nostalgic as he looked at the flawlessly untainted Luo Guozhong.
In the previous life, the supplies that Luo Guozhong had airdropped provided great help to him, saving many people. Unfortunately, when Wang Tao finally arrived at the military base, he found that Luo Guozhong had turned into a zombie. But even in becoming a zombie, those soldiers continued to mechanically execute the supply drop orders.
This had always been a regret for Wang Tao, as he didn't kill the zombie Luo Guozhong at the time, hoping to find a solution later, however slim the chance might have been. Unexpectedly, he was reborn...
Meeting Luo Guozhong again naturally delighted Wang Tao, knowing that this time he wouldn't turn into a zombie.
Luo Guozhong was still somewhat dazed, but now was not the time for idle thoughts. He quickly introduced Wang Tao to the others.
Everyone held great respect for Wang Tao. Even though they had guns and cannons, they were no match for a mere glance from Wang Tao. They all genuinely respected such a powerful figure. After all, Wang Tao was not only powerful himself but had rescued many survivors and was worthy of the title "hero."
After greeting Wang Tao, the soldiers instinctively asked about Bai Hao's situation. The radio had frequently been out of contact recently; their last contact with the convoy was two days ago...
The current situation at the military base was somewhat similar to the previous situation at the Zijin Base. The highest-ranked individuals had encountered problems.
However, at Zijin Base, they couldn't find suitable replacements, and the surviving individuals lacked both the strength and credentials. Meanwhile, at the military base, they had appointed three high-ranking military personnel for management.
Due to the fewer number of people at the military base, management was easier, hence there were no immediate issues. But if Wang Tao led over eighty thousand survivors here, along with them, there would be a total of one hundred thousand people, and future management would become troublesome...
These three managers felt quite distressed, thinking their abilities would be insufficient to manage a Survivor Base of one hundred thousand people. After all, these survivors were not just ordinary people but included many Ability Users comparable to superheroes! Balancing the conflict between Ability Users and soldiers was enough to make them vexed.
Fortunately, during their interaction with the convoy, they unexpectedly discovered Bai Hao's existence. Bai Hao was genuinely a General and perfectly qualified to lead their military base. Most importantly, Bai Hao's own strength was formidable; he was a Second-order Superpower Owner! That made him even more suitable. Moreover, Bai Hao was one of their system members and essentially their leader, making him quite fitting to lead their entire military base.
Wang Tao roughly understood their intentions, so he smiled and explained:
"Everyone need not worry. General Bai Hao is doing well and is on the way here. I've come first to check if there are any issues here; if not, I will notify them to come directly."
"Great!"
Everyone sighed in relief.
As long as General Bai Hao was alive, they could manage integrating so many survivors; otherwise, they'd truly be overwhelmed.
After briefly familiarizing himself with Luo Guozhong and the others, Wang Tao prepared to leave.
Wang Tao slowly ascended into the air, then spoke to the group:
"I'll inform General Bai Hao and the others to come over; it'll take about three hours, so prepare yourselves here."
"Understood!"
Zoom—
Under the envious and admiring gazes of the group, Wang Tao left Wuyang Military Base and quickly flew back to the convoy.
"How did it go?"
Bai Hao and the others ran over to ask as soon as they saw Wang Tao return.
The closer they got to success, the more they worried about potential problems.
"I visited the Wuyang Military Base; everything is fine. Let's accelerate our speed and aim to arrive within three hours."
"Good, good, good! Let's speed up!"
Upon hearing that there were no issues at the military base, Bai Hao was elated and immediately ordered the convoy to speed up.
Ultimately, it took just over two hours for the convoy to reach Wuyang Military Base.
